Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

As always, standing in the garden, I straightened my back and looked at the target in front of me.

'God... if I were some protagonist of a novel, starting every chapter with the same line every time like this... what would the readers do?'

I sighed in relief that I wasn't some main protagonist, saving the world.

'Hell no. Instead of fighting with my life on the line and saving a world, I would travel this new world.'

Yes, gaining strength was good. Definitely.

But, I would prefer not to fight unnecessarily if it's not for the sake of protecting something close to me.

As for today's agenda, It was a day of demonstration!

It has been four weeks scene dad and I resolved our patty fight.

He taught me many things during this time.

Now I had learned the full basics of (tier-1) magic circles and the theory of energy conversion for it.

That made it a lot easier to practice different types of spells.

Of course, I did that in just a week, which was enough for dad to lose his mind three whole times.

And that number was still ok. Mom and I managed him... somehow.

Well, after the theory lessons we did many things like discussing different spells, practicing them, and most importantly, making some changes.

I was mainly an ARCHER.

And archers got to shoot arrows.

So, I turned any possible spell dad taught me and I tried to learn on my own, into arrow forms.

This was definitely difficult as each one of them took days or more just to have its form altered.

They were all long-distance spells or mid-range spells in most cases.

Having them turned into the form of a (Magic Arrow) was a lot more convenient for a mainly long-range damage dealer like me.

I can materialize the spell in the form of an arrow instead of a magic circle or incantation by changing its form while casting.

Knowing the basics helped a lot but for me who was going to mainly use image casting, which took a lot of mental power into account, knowing the basics helped much more.

'And dad taught me a very important thing about image casting.

Willpower and clear imagination.'

If my 'Will' was powerful, the image casting becomes much easier.

It helped me learn the spells much easier as my 'Will' was a LOT stronger than an average mage.

'That was a given as the hunger to learn magic was very great in me.'

The most basic thing for the people of this world didn't exist in my late world.

So, someone like me would be very hungry to learn new things.

And my imagination is... let's say VERY vivid.

And so, surprising dad over a dozen times this past few weeks and [Understanding] a total of nine new (tier-1) spells, I was going to show them the result of my hard work today.

Naturally, they are worried as parents but... mom is a bit more worried and dad has an anticipating look.

I waved at them in the distance, smiling brightly as I turned to face the many targets set at different distances.

This was just a fun activity but if I make any mistakes, I will definitely not get even a scratch thanks to mom's special clothes.

After the first accident with enchanted arrows, mom specifically ordered me to wear this every time I am practicing.

Stretching the string of the bow which was almost 1 meter in height, I focused on one of the red-white wooden targets.

"Huuuuu..."

Inhaling a long breath, I started to gather Mana on my fingertips.

I condensed and shaped it and quickly, a blue arrow shining like light appeared on my bow.

(Mana Arrow)

The first spell I learned on my own, was similar to (tier-1) magic spell (Mana blade).

It condenses the Mana and molds it into a temporary solid object.

It could be considered a bit difficult for those who have just started learning magic recently.

'Hmm. It definitely wasn't easy. Took me four whole days.'

Releasing the arrow, I also released the long-held breath.

I already knew what was going to happen to the target so I wasn't worried at all.

—Swiiiiiiiiiisssh. —Thrum.

And just as I thought, as soon as the arrow left the bow with a swish~ sound, it reached the target and pierced it in an instant.

Then it slowly disintegrated into the air.

This was the first spell.

"Amazing, Eon!"

Dad shouted happily but mom didn't say anything and just smiled softly.

Ok. Then the next one should be the most common (fire arrow) of other fantasy worlds.

But here... this arrow is from one of the most difficult spells for beginners.

It's good that I have my otherworldly wisdom to help me.

It wasn't that hard for me as it took less time to understand those spells than other ones.

I stretched my bowstring again.

To ignite a fire we need two main components, fuel, and oxygen.

If we can control the amount required and the atmosphere around it, it molds in the desired shape.

Currently, I could only use fire Mana as fuel so creating cool-looking blue flames had to wait a very long time.

Closing my eyes, I gathered fire and wind-type Mana on my bow.

It was a good thing that I enchanted my bow to be more strong so it can now easily handle this type of heat and much more.

The Mana burned and turned into a small line of fire and then turned into an arrow.

—Swiiiiiiiiiisssh. Thud!

—Kshuuuuksuusuuksuuu

The arrow shot forth and stuck the isolated target in the distance. And, as soon as it struck the target, the whole disk of wood was set on fire.

—Kracal. —Kracal.

A fire burned on the wooden log and quickly started to spread.

Without waiting much, I prepared a (Water arrow).

It was much easier than the fire-type spell.

—Swaaaaaaash. —Swoooooooooooooosh.

I shot it on the burning fire and after just three splashing arrows of waster, the fire died down.

Then without wasting much time, I stretched the bowstring again and gathered only wind-type Mana particles and after quickly compressing it for a bit, I released it.

—Swwwwwwwwwwwwiiiiiish.

The recoil this time was great as I had to take two steps back.

The transparent arrow of wind stuck to the wood and...

—Tuck. Tuck. Tuck. Tuck.

It cut the circle into four equal parts.

Just like cutting a pizza into four slices.

As much as I wanted to call it (pizza cutting arrow), I had to call it (wind blade) in arrow form.

In the future well, maybe I will. Not for the time being at least.

Now, putting my one hand on the ground, I prepared earth-type mana.

Using (Stone creation), I summoned two arrows, made of rock.

This was an easy spell as all it did was create some stones.

If you use more willpower and create a perfect image in your mind, the rock's shape can be changed into anything.

Taking out slightly heavy arrows from the ground, I adjusted them and shot towards the closer targets.

And they were bullseye. Exactly at the center.

"Hu...hu..."

These main elemental arrows of fire, water, wind, and earth took a large amount of Mana.

As I shot all four of them in quick succession, I used quite a lot of Mana and concentration in a short amount of time.

I was a bit exhausted so I sat down for a bit. Mom and dad asked me if I was ok and I assured them that I was fine.

They were amazed by this short performance.

Mom, especially looked happy as she cheered me up. She was still worried but looked assured.

Dad was amazed with his mouth open for a while even after being the one to teach me most of these things.

I put some Mana into the bracelet on my right arm and the bow in my hand disappeared.

This bracelet was a <Storage device>.

It worked the same as a (dimension storage) that high-mages use.

By using [Skill Stones] of storage-related skills like (item box) as the base and some other materials, one can create a storage device that would activate by using Mana.

My bracelet was one of the smallest of the storage devices but, it could still store my bow, arrows, and some other small things.

It couldn't be as large as dad's (item box) skill as one [skill stone] could be used to make multiple storage devices.

[Skill stones] are very unique and these things as a full stone, if absorbed by someone, could grant them that specific skill.

Skills could be used without large Mana usages.

They are like automated spells of high quality which can be used with any type of energy input.

They don't require any type of chant, magic circle, or precise imagination.

Just saying or thinking to trigger the spell is all it takes to activate it.

But, we can't control the output of a [skill] like we can with spells.

If a skill is triggered, then it would take the same amount of energy every time.

That's why large-scale or attack-type skills have to be used in certain situations.

If one uses a skill that requires a large amount of energy in a situation where he doesn't have the required amount, the body would sacrifice [Soul Energy].

p [Soul Energy], being the fundamental energy of the world, is something that is present in every creature of this world.

Losing even a little can cause life-threatening situations.

So, if you don't absorb the stone and divide it with specific craftsmanship type skills, you can use it in many different types of equipment.

Taking out a small glass bottle, I gulped down the blue liquid in it.

It was a basic Mana recovery potion.

Mom had filled my bracelet's all of the retaining space with all types of potions.

There were rare and costly ones too. Even dad was a bit surprised to see them but, not that much.

'I knew mom had her own storage device but even I didn't know what treasure could be in there.'

Ignoring these useless thoughts, I stood up again.

My mana also recovered fully with just one potion.

Signaling mom and dad, I took out the bow and took the position again.

There were still four spells left to demonstrate.
