Its been a while since I used Scout Scope on myself.
Ive been using red magic quite a bit so it ended up beingthe highest in level. Its the magic I used most in the past, so its the easiest magic for me to use and I keep unconsciously using it.
If I think about keeping my skills in balance it might be about time for me to use my other magic types.
Right now Im in the Kobold Forest gaining combat experience with Claude and Milly.
Claude is the vanguard and Milly is the rearguard.
Claude kites the kobolds, and as she does that, Milly fires a magic that is compatible with the kobolds attribute to defeat them.
Though this isnt an efficient way to gain XP, it is necessary. For these two, it is necessary that I pound the basics of fighting as a party into their heads.
Claude tends to advance too much when trying to defeat an enemy, and Milly follows. She charges in without thinking and shoots random spells.
Milly-san! Youre coming too close!
Claude, if I stand back there, its hard to shoot~
Yareyare a sigh escapes from me.
Even if I tell them they wont understand.
I can only let them learn with their bodies.
A little distance away from the two of them a kobold enters my vision and approaches.
I cast time square and while time was stopped I cast red storm and black storm.
When time resumed, a blazing storm engulfed the kobold and in one blow it was burnt to a crisp.
As I thought, the combination of red and sky magic are really easy to use.
I think Ill call this spell Pyro Storm.
Although Ive tried quite a few, there were many combination of spells that failed.
For example, when I cast red ball and black crash and they combined, they immediately scattered and wouldnt activate.
If the magic wasnt of the same level, it looked like it wouldnt work well.
Also theres the matter of compatibility, when I cast blue ball and red ball and they combined, it caused an explosion that gave me some burns.
You never know what will happen when you combine magic until you actually try it. Its not good to wait until youre in actual combat to test it.
While the two of them are experiencing combat, I am experimenting with magic.
Zeph-kun!
I hear Claudes voice, and when I turn around, I see that Claude is having a hard fight against a group of kobolds.
Milly is also being attacked by two kobolds and its taking all her efforts to evade them.
Milly use red wall!
Even.if youtell me.that!
It seems that she cant use magic while shes dodging so desperately.
Thats not all; another kobold appears and joins the group attacking Claude.
I guess it cant be helped.
I take two magic recovery medicines, and then fire my combination magic in Claudes direction.
Pyro Storm!
An inferno rages in the middle of the group of enemies, and the kobolds were annihilated.
As for the kobolds remaining there seem to be five.
Claude can handle that number without any problems.
You could say that Claude is sufficiently skilled for this job.
Milly, on the other hand
Thank you very much, Zeph-kun.
She gives another refreshing pretty boy smile.
Not as refreshing as mine though.
Help me over here too~!
Milly, you reap what you sow. Fix this yourself.
Its like tha~t?!
The kobolds attacks are nothing special. Even if there are two at once, I want her to deal with them somehow.
When Milly starts to concentrate and use her magic, the kobolds start to attack and this prevents her from casting her spells.
The two kobold team has a good attack rhythm.
Milly is getting short of breath, it seems like shes about to reach her limit.
Haa good grief, she needs so much looking after.
Black Wall
A barrier of wind appears between Milly and the kobolds; the kobold that comes into contact with it is sent flying.
Ooh!Thank you~ Zeph!
Now manage the rest by yourself.
Now that she could take her distance from the kobolds, she hit them with Blue Gale and defeated them.
..This girlher fighting style is really crude isnt it
Ah well, despite anything else as long as she beats her enemies whatever she does is fine.
Fu Fu, Zeph-sensei is so soft.
Mmhm. I wanted her to handle an area of this level somehow.
Milly-sans ability to concentrate is unstable. As soon as she gets impatient she starts to break down.
You understand the problem pretty well, dont you?
Well, all shes done so far has been shooting her white ball at zombies.
Honestly, this is probably the first time shes hunted on the front lines.
So although I may be being soft, this time around I will protect her.
Look, Milly is getting tired of waiting. Lets hurry up and get going.
Fu Fu, thats right.
Should we keep going like this for a while until Milly gets used to it?
I meditate while I accompany those two.
We continue hunting for about an hour after that.
Ah, Im sorry, but its about time for me to go back.
Eeeh? Isnt is still pretty early~?
Milly, dont say such selfish things. Also, look at the sky its getting darker. I think its about time we call it a day.
Does Claude have some business to attend to? It seems like Claude cant stay out hunting too late.
Though the present situation is a little unsatisfactory, I kind of expected it when we increased the number of people.
While pacifying the reluctant Milly, we went to leave the Kobold Forest, but suddenly a red kobold appeared.
It was the Kobold Leader.
I cast scout scope on the Kobold leader.
Kobold Leader
Level 42
Magic Power 24412/24412
This guy is just like the beach caves King Nipper, a mid-boss.
When it noticed us, it let out a roar and summoned its kobold allies.
Uwa.right in front of the exit.
Its ok, itll be fine as long as we defeat it quickly.
I wonder if the three of us will be able to beat it without that much difficulty
Milly cast blue gale on the group of kobolds and they were quickly eliminated, the few that were left were crushed by me casting green sphere.
The remaining kobold leader faced me and swung its sword. Claude stood before me and caught the blow on her shield.
Spirits of the earth, become the body of armor that provides protection!
Safe Protection!
When I cast safe protection on Claude, she shoots me a look of gratitude.
Its about time that I attack too, the kobold leader should be of the red attribute I think.
I guess red zero wont see any use once again.
So then maybe Pyro Crash, which I used in the fight against the King Nipper, would be good.
As the kobold leader approached me I tried to cast time square, but it swung its longsword at me and disrupted me.
Tsk.
Pyro Crash has a short range, so it wont hit if you dont get close.
It cant be helped, Ill just have to use some other magic.
I cast time square, then I cast red shot and black shot.
A flaming tornado in the shape of a ball is fired from the palm of my hand. It hits the kobold leader and stops its movements.
Deyaaaaaaaa!!
Thats where Claude started to attack, though it was a nice sword strike with all her effort put in, I dont think it had much effect.
This was because the short sword that Claude was using wasnt enchanted.
Though I must say, Pyro Shot uses little magic energy, but its attack power is similarly low.
I cast Pyro Crash while crouching!
In that moment a tornado engulfs the kobold leader.
Milly had fired a blue gale.
I think we have idiot on our hands.
Though I say that, the level of Millys blue gale is pretty high. Even if it wasnt an attribute the monster was weak against, it worked fairly well.
Milly doesnt have a great variety of magic at her disposal, in this case she doesnt know any other useful magic.
So I cant really judge her too harshly for this.
Ah well, well just whittle him down like this.
I fired a pyro shot at the Kobold leader still inside the tornado.
I meditated while we continuously alternated between firing pyro shots and blue gales at the Kobold leader, and eventually we defeated it.
While we were in the middle of fighting the Kobold leader, at times other kobolds would intrudeit was quite troublesome, but when that happened Claude handled it wonderfully.
It gave the feeling that we could leave it to Claude to guard our backs.
However, when we finished it had already gotten completely dark out.
Uwaa~ the suns already setif I dont hurry back.
Thats right, Im really sorry Cla.ude?
Claudes face had become ghastly pale.
She was covered in a cold sweat and was shivering slightly.
Claude? Whats wrong?
Millys carefree voice and Claudes terribly pale face were horribly mismatched.
