Chapter 8
Black Thunder!
Several streaks of lightning arced from the thundercloud, obliterating zombies left and right.
The decayed church always has cloudy weather.
Its chant is quite long, even if its to use a spell like Black Thunder, if the conditions arent met its impossible to use. Though if all my opponents are slow-moving zombies
Thats all the Great Magic that the me of this time can use.
Even though the magic consumption is better than the time I battled the thieves, it still takes about 70% of my magic pool.
So I better start meditating.
Even if its enough to defeat them with White Ball, I need to stay accustomed to using difficult systems like Green and Sky.
If Im at a high level, but suddenly have to use one of the difficult systems, I want to avoid only being to use them at a low level.
Recently, with Black Thunder as the center, Ive also been experimenting with other spells.
Although White Ball is still my main spell in this area.
After I finished meditating it was time to make another train, I could see a distant swarm of zombies gathering in the shadow of the building.
Wait I think I can see something amidst the mobs.
If I looked closely I could make out the details, wielding a bishops staff and a gilded crown, was a skeleton with a billowing red cloak.
Its dark eye sockets were empty, but unexpectedly I could feel a strong will when I looked into them.
The King of Death
The boss of the Decaying Church.
It appears after a fixed period of time, the usual monsters that spawn cant even be compared to its strength.
Its outer shell is covered with powerful magic that can shrug off most attacks, subduing it wont be easy.
It might be tough, but the reward would be a huge, HUGE amount of experience, as well as a high chance of dropping rare items that can be sold for a good price.
Basically I cant defeat it alone, I need to fight in cooperation with a party, as I am now I cant do anything to it.
Though I said that, there are stories of people defeating boss monsters solo, as long as they kept their magic consumption in check and made careful preparations, it is possible.
If I remember correctly, Master also used to hunt boss monsters in his earlier days.
It might come straight for me the moment I set foot in its domain.
With a grin and a small chuckle, I muttered Ill be back under my breath and teleported away in the opposite direction.
Watching Zeph run away was a girl standing in the shadow of a tree.
He was probably a mage from the city of Nanami.
Said the girl as she checked the results of Scout Scope.
Zeph Einstein
Level 16
RedMagic level: 12/62
BlueMagic level: 11/87
GreenMagic level: 13/99
SkyMagiclevel: 12/89
Soul Magic level: 15/97
Zeph huh Hes not too bad but
The girl held up a hand to the mass of zombies, and casted Blue Gale.
A tornado smashed into the zombies, throwing them up into the air as if dancing.
Hes nothing big if he ran away from something of this level~
Suddenly, next to the laughing girl a black sphere of magic exploded.
Immediately after, while raising a small scream to the burst of magic behind her, the girl looked towards the tornado and saw her assaulter advancing towards her. The King of Death.
Wha-!?
After using a Great Spell of the Blue System like Blue Gale, she didnt have the concentration to cast teleport immediately.
The girl jumped back, but her Blue Ball spells couldnt stop the progression of the King of Death.
As it drew closer, her feet froze at the sight of its expressionless skull face and was able to recite teleport at the last minute.
Losing sight of the girl, the King of Death resumed wandering its domain.
*Ha~tsu Ha~tsu* That was way too close
(TN: Heavy breathing sounds)
And leaned on the wall, girl wipe the forehead while seen in the sideways glance the king of the dead, he smiled a triumphant smile.
The girl leaned on the wall, wiping the sweat off of her forehead, and while she gave the King of Death a sideways glance, a triumphant smile appeared on her face.
Th-thats right! Its not like I was the only one to run away! That kid also tried to fight and he ran, I only panicked because I wasnt expecting a foe like you! So until we meet again, my sweet!
In a corner of the Decaying Church, a pitiful excuse could be heard, but the beings it reached werent only the zombies.
A few days later.
I usually go to sleep as soon as I reach school everyday, but I wasnt going to sleep today.
The classroom was noisy as usual, but thats not why I was awake.
(Found you)
On the first floor of the school, near the staff room.
A powerful torrent of magic power could be felt from there.
For the few who have magical powers in this country, it would be easy to notice them even from a distance.
A magician like this was probably quite the spell caster.
They were probably here for me.
When I teased my classmates previously, normally there would be a notification posted about how I could use magic, but in reality Im still not widely known by the masses.
In a small country town like this, information spreads quickly.
If there was a mage at the school. The Mage Association, Guild, Mercenaries etc. would all come to scout me into their organizations so I could be of some use.
Although right now I have neither money, nor connections, if someone were to gauge my abilities, I would already have the strength of an average adventurer.
For what one would call a young genius mage, there would be many admirers.
If I joined an organization somewhere, hunting would become much more efficient.
Forget making a livelihood, Id have enough support to leave this town if I wished.
Id feel a little bad for mom, but its my life. Ill do what I want with it.
*Kukuku* While I laughed, still lying down on the desk, the classroom door opened with a rattle, and Claire-sensei entered.
Claire-senseis face changed while surveying the classroom, eventually stopping her gaze at me.
Of course, that was because the guest she brought is here for me.
Oh? Zeph is awake for once? Thats rare.
To Claire-senseis irony, nobody laughed.
Well, everyone is scared of me afterall.
This happened with Claire-sensei oblivious to it all.
Okaaay, everyone give a warm welcome to our new transfer student!
That was a transfer student? No way, the magic power I felt a little while ago was as powerful as mine.
While my mind was still unsettled, a girl entered through the door.
The girl had long blonde hair, tied with red ribbons into twin tails that softly swayed left and right.
She wore a fluttery white blouse, and a knee-length skirt, clothes that arent seen very often in the town of Nanami.
Both the boys and the girls raised their voices. Oooooooohhhhh~~~
The girl standing next to Claire-sensei smiled gracefully, gave a small laugh, and said:
My name is Milly Reyad, nice to meet you all.
A polite greeting.
A cheerful, bubbly personality.
She who was waving while cheerfully answering others questions, suddenly made eye contact with me.
