107 – Taming Skaya
“ha… Okay. You won’t have to say you know.”
After being threatened by Rianne in the name of negotiations, Skaya eventually agreed to a contract with me and decided to help me subdue the monsters.
“Then what will you pay for?”
“money.”
… Until now, I had never heard of Skya asking for money as compensation.
I felt awkward because of the gap I felt between the past and real Skaya.
“Okay. The basic reward will be treated according to the number of monsters you catch.”
“okay. And another request?”
“Don’t hurt the monster as much as possible.”
As soon as she heard my words, a wrinkle formed on her brow, so I reached out my hand without realizing it and blew the night away.
f*ck!
“Keuk!!”
“ah.”
habit again.
When Skaya made that expression on her face, her hand went out unconsciously.
How to say… Is it a very angry face?
“hey! What are you hitting me on?!”
“No, I’m really sorry, I don’t even know since there are things that have accumulated over the years.”
“Isn’t that what I did?!”
I have nothing to say.
As I was scratching the back of my neck in embarrassment, Skaya glared at me, then let out a sigh and stretched out her hand to draw a rune.
No, wait. Why does Skaya draw runes?
“What are you doing?”
“You’re drawing runes to use teleport magic. What are you doing?”
“… No, so why do you draw runes inefficiently when you know how to use them?”
“yes?”
Scarya looked at me with eyes asking what nonsense she was talking about, and then spat out nonsense as if she were saying something obvious.
“Yeah… Aren’t runes the most efficient way to express magic?”
He says it as if it were natural.
In terms of common sense, that’s correct, but Skaya’s magical power of dominance is not something that can be played with such common sense.
“… How old are you, exactly?”
“me? I am 21.”
… Don’t you know that you’ve been locked up for 100 years?
She must have learned magic at the age of 115, according to the old Skaya… If you add 7 to 100 years old… Has it only been six years since you learned magic?
“This crazy… .”
At that point, it was understandable that Skaja’s knowledge of magic was so shallow.
That’s right, six years is about the time when an ordinary person gets a ticket as an apprentice wizard. In the case of Skaya, she can produce quite a few archmage-level abilities with her absurd talent and the magic of dominance, but she lacks empirical knowledge.
“Ha, this is unexpected.”
enough skills But I’m afraid because I don’t have any knowledge.
There would be no problem with killing monsters, but if you kill monsters in such an inefficient way, there is a possibility that my expectations and the number of coins will be greatly distorted.
At least 100,000… If possible, it would be difficult if I didn’t earn about 150,000 coins.
“Can you engage in close combat?”
“Don’t bullsh*t. What kind of wizard is melee.”
this crazy
I would have thought that Skaya would be taking the old-generation mage’s way of being treated like a cunt.
I get dizzy thinking about how Skaya runs away exhausted from exhaustion of magical energy. There won’t be a chance that her magic power will run out due to a few things, but compared to the Skaya I used to know, her magic tube is much smaller.
“… It’s only a week from now.”
“yes? What the hell are you talking about?”
“All right. master.”
When Rianne sent her magical energy to my words and blocked the magical power of Scaya’s control, she screamed in embarrassment, but this was an unavoidable measure.
“Wh-what are you trying to do?!”
It’s never my anger.
It’s not that I’m doing this because I remember the image of Skaya smiling brightly after being hit with magic every time, but I’m doing this because I have no choice but to save Rianne.
“What are you planning to do! You madman!!”
No personal feelings were mixed.
*****
“ha… ha… .”
“Get up soon. You still have magic power left.”
“Physical and… And horsepower… What does it matter… !!”
This foolish Skaya still doesn’t realize that it can be restored with the magic of domination, and recovers her physical strength by lying down inefficiently.
“Your magic is left over. recover with it.”
“… no.”
this year?
You know what to do, but you don’t want to fight, don’t you?
You can’t call Neros. Even if it is Neros’ ability, if it is turned to the recovery side, it is not to the extent that it becomes inefficient, and recovery is impossible with a curse.
And through divine power, it is not the recovery of physical strength, but the recovery of trauma.
In other words, to recover one’s own physical strength, there is no other way than Skaya’s command.
“Aren’t you awake?”
“You said no! Why on earth do I have to be forced to train here like this!?”
“It’s because you’re weak.”
Of course, the target of comparison is the future self, but it is true that it is weak.
My overall physical strength is no different from that of other magicians, and my power of dominance through my magic of destruction has become weak enough to be offset through my magic of destruction.
And the most important thing is the absence of close combat and the absence of special moves.
Close combat is, to be honest, close to the body. Even if I just approached him, he panicked and used his commandments, but he didn’t concentrate properly, so his power was halfway there. In addition, the durability of the body itself is weak, so it seems that it will pick up and break somewhere if the power is adjusted incorrectly.
Its special move is annihilation magic, which it has used many times in the past.
There was magic that calculated and disassembled the structure of matter, but now Skaya has no knowledge of annihilation magic.
It is said that it is still before magic is developed, but the overall level is just falling.
Looking at the status window, only horsepower is up and down. Other than that, all the front seats are lower.
How on earth do you take care of yourself to get such a status window?
“First of all, the basic specifications… .”
“Are you strong enough to say that?”
… what?
In an instant, a sigh escaped from the provocation that escaped from Skaya’s mouth.
Who is saying that to whom now?
“You told me I was weak, but you’re asking me if I’m strong enough to say that.”
“I don’t think the person who was hit by me just now has something to say, right?”
“Isn’t this just a warm-up? When it comes to a real fight, a bastard like you can apply it the way I apply fish thorns, right?”
Such a common provocation. Normally, it wouldn’t fit.
I don’t have enough time to dedicate to Rianne, so it’s ideal to just pass on the technique and finish it quickly rather than accompany him to such a provocation.
Unless it’s someone who’s full of pride like Skaya.
“Why are you scared?”
look at it now
If you’re fighting not to lose a word, and you keep trying to teach something randomly in this state, the reaction you’ll see from the other side is obvious.
“Ah, what do I learn from weak people? I’m going?”
It’s like that.
I plan to fight while provoking and then run away after winning.
No, if you don’t fall for the provocation, it’s obvious that you’re admitting that you’re weaker than yourself, and you’ll run away using runes.
“… Yes, you must respond to provocations.”
Then the answer is to respond to the provocation.
Throwing away the prepared wooden sword and taking out the Nemesis she was wearing, Skaya put on a serious expression and spoke quickly.
“Don’t move!”
Her tall body stiffens at the moment, but soon the red destructive magic rising from her body destroys Skaya’s magical power and wraps around her whole body.
“sh*t. Ever since I came to this age, the commandments have not been able to play their proper role.”
“If I knew it would be easy for you, I wouldn’t have attacked you.”
Gathers red mana into the sword and emits sword flame.
Seeing the sparks made of magic rather than using fire magic, Skaya tried to open her mouth, but before that, she moved her body.
“?!”
Surprised by the faster-than-expected speed, impatient Skaya hurriedly pulled her body back, but at that point, Skaya’s defeat was almost certain.
Kwadeuk!!
“Kuhheh!!”
“Okay, it’s over.”
After piercing a large hole in Skaya’s stomach, she immediately raises and restores her divine power.
If you take care of it halfway, it’s not long before it’s obvious that you’ll attack again, so you hurt it once.
Again, no personal feelings were involved.
“Cool… Cool! How did you…?”
“I just concentrated my mana on the floor and accelerated it with an explosion.”
Momentary mana control and overall body balance are important, but it is enough to catch the opponent off guard. Especially when it comes to an opponent with poor physical abilities like the present Skaya.
“Cool… .”
That’s how Skaya looked at me with an expression of resentment and spurted dark red blood.
But what can I do? Isn’t it the rule of the world to follow the strong?
After recovering for about three minutes, Skaya herself let out a voice and supported her recovery.
“…If you’re going to teach me, teach me swordsmanship.”
It’s nice to be obedient.
