Chapter 26: The hunting ground
"Muuu~! Muuu!"
There were many hunting grounds around the Moongold town but of them all, she brought us to the beginner forest that had the most dangerous creatures.
"There are six series of magic that are also called Types of magic."
She had a magic scroll in her hand right now and there was a big (Level-15) wild boar before us.
"The first series is, obviously: Destruction."
When she activated the magic scroll by tearing it in half, the magic circle that was encoded in it was activated and the earth attribute spell that it contained materialized in the form of a large rock spike.
-Swish!
-Shuuuu—rrruk!
"MHIIIIIIII…!"
It was not easy to control the spells from the magic scrolls but she controlled it precisely so that the spike would only hit the hind legs of the giant boar.
It was a one meter tall creature so it was in no way something as simple as the pork people eat in the real world– or this world, for that matter.
"The second series is what defines the healer mages: Abundance."
We walked closer to the creature and though it was dangerous, she used another scroll and this time, the magic that was cast created a green magic circle around one of the legs of the creature that, with a green light, miraculously healed the injured leg of the wild beast.
"Muuuuuuhiiiiii…!"
The creature was obviously angry to see people standing before him, and knew they must have been the ones to attack him as well.
So the wild boar attacked them with its front legs as soon as it saw the chance.
"The third is Preservation. The magic that creates protective barriers– as well as different kinds of other barriers."
-Oooooooooooong!
When she used another magic scroll, a translucent blue shield was created around us and the creature that had attacked us with great force, instead of dealing any damage to us, was thrown back with a great rebounding force.
"The fourth type is Restriction. The magic that applies debuffs to the enemies."
She was already using a lot of expensive scrolls that cost more than a few silver coins.
They were not something anyone could buy with a little money, and instead were something that players used as a hidden card in case they came across something difficult.
But she used them as if they were nothing.
-Oooooooooooooong!
Thankfully, to show us what Restriction type magic was, she used an Item with the magic imbued in it instead of a scroll that could only be used once.
It was a rare kind of item that had certain charges that could be used more than once, and some rare ones that had these magic stored as skills could even restore these charges.
"There are various kinds of debuffs that one could naturally receive in <NO>. But, magic debuffs are more powerful since they could not be cured with physical cleansing potions."
The moment she used the pendent like item, the boar that was running back at us with a new kind of anger was abnormally slowed down.
It was as if time had slowed down for this creature– something so unique that it brought some confusion to the creature in question as well.
"The fifth type is the opposite of the debuffs… magic of buffs, Grace series."
She picked up a twig from the ground and used another magic scroll on it, giving it some kind of buff that she said was called (Toughness).
"And lastly…"
She moved past the protective barrier in an instant as if to have teleported, and reached right beside the point where the slowed down creature had reached.
"The Physical series which caters to the set laws of the world and the reality that we live in."
-Dhum!
-Crrrr!
She slammed the twig right on the forehead of the angry creature and the crisp sound that was created, it was obvious that she had broken the skull of the creature.
-Thud.
The way the big creature fell to the ground was obviously something cool, but the fact that she was looking back at us with a smile while still holding that fortified twig was something else…
'Why's she so cool, damn it.'
She must have used {Blink} to move so fast that it almost made it seem like she had teleported.
'She told me it was one of her favorite skills that were pretty easy to learn but very difficult to master.'
Blink was essentially a magic that could move someone a set distance away from their current position.
However, it was very difficult to control how far within a ten meter radius one would go and where they would end up.
'That's why mages only used it as an escape ticket to get out of dangerous situations.'
There were many creatures that possessed this skill as well, so with right hunting or by spending a few hundred silver, one might certainly get the Essence that contained this skill.
It wasn't that difficult to obtain it, but it was a kind of magic skill that, according to her, was more precious than people generally knew.
"Physical magic is not just something that follows the laws of physics, it could also go beyond it and make impossible into reality."
From how much I knew about her life in this world, I knew she loved physical magic series the most.
Of course she could not use magic or even Mana herself, but that was probably the reason skills existed in this world.
"Three kinds, six core elements, and six type series. Magic of this world is pretty simple if you put aside the difficult things one might have to learn and understand in order to cast these magic spells.
Though, as long as one has enough creativity and understanding of the magic they want to cast, with enough Mana and focus, they should be able to cast the spells that they want."
Magic was not limited to elements and elemental magic.
Fireball, ice lance, earthquake, illumination, dark sphere, wind cutters… these weren't all there was to magic here.
People could create, destroy, recreate, edit, explore, and go beyond what was simply possible with the magic of this world.
"So then. What type of magic do you want to cast first?"
Unlike affinities of elements and Kinds of magic, anyone can learn any type of magic if they try hard enough.
But still, it was better to start with the type that one was the most suited for.
"Muuu~!"
And both of them were excited for it.
"Let's start with the easiest."
Though… since he did not have any affinity for elemental magic, checking the series that he was the most suited for was going to be a little difficult task.
The same, on the other hand, was not true for the little excited slime.
