"Let's make an escort request"

"Oh, of course, I'll give you rewards every day, so don't worry.

A very easy request came.

Isn't that really just a request to sit?

It's almost impossible to say that there are almost no boss-class demons.

Although…….

"... but I can't keep watching on me?"

You only need to defeat when a strong monster comes.

But if you keep watching for monsters, the story is different.

Indeed it is too cumbersome.

"The watchman hires a separate adventurer. We'll let you know when the monsters are coming, so let them down at that time. Tell them in a way you'll know if you're near the town."

Yup.

There is no reason to refuse.

I can't leave too far, but I don't mean to.

"Okay. Let's get the request."

In this way, Count Megis grew a lot of bradonna grass, and I was very good.

Nevertheless, after receiving the request, do you prepare for the boss's arrival?

It's ridiculous to be prepared for a boss who doesn't come anyway, but you'll have to do it later.

next morning.

I was out of town, into the woods.

The reason I came to the forest was to strengthen my magic.

In order to strengthen the magic, it is necessary to take medicine called "The Medicine of Wisdom".

That material is the Stone of Wisdom I got last time.

Mixing the shattered Stone of Wisdom with crushed herbs can enhance the magic.

"... Is it like this?"

That's why I mix the crushed Stone of Wisdom and the mashed Bradonna grass paste.

By the way, Bradonna grass is the rest of what was grown during this time.

Herbs could be anything, but BBO always used bradonna herbs, so I decided to do so again.

However…….

"... do you drink this?"

Looking at the completed “The Wisdom of Wisdom,” I muttered.

Bradonna grass paste, which is a concentrate of green juice, and "Wisdom Stone" with a cloudy red color.

I didn't think that the “wisdom medicine” made by mixing these two was something that people would drink.

Know before drinking.

This medicine is absolutely unsavory.

Although…….

"I can't go without drinking"

Now I have two "Stones of Wisdom".

One of them is used today.

There are different skills to improve depending on the situation, so I want to keep one.

And I have already decided the skill to improve with the wisdom stone I drink today.

"Steam Explosion" is the top skill of a sage.

The level of learning has been raised, so it has only recently become usable.

This skill is overwhelmingly strong when using only two "Stones of Wisdom".

It is strong even when used normally, and is useful in emergency situations.

… Do you use it once before trying to improve your skills?

"Steam Explosion"

The moment I chanted it-with shrill explosions, nearby trees blew away.

The tree in the immediate vicinity of the explosion has broken down and its small branches are shattered.

"... it's strong enough at level 1."

Why this magic is so strong.

This is because it combines the magical efficiency of fire-based attack magic with the convenience of explosive magic.

Although the power consumption of Steam Explosion is not low, it is so powerful that the magic efficiency of this magic is about the same as Flame Circle.

However, Flame Circle has a long activation time, so it is necessary to bind the enemy to the spot in order to make full use of its power.

Furthermore, Flame Circle is a magic for advanced users, as there are also dangers such as the spread of fire.

Magic with good magic efficiency basically has some disadvantages.

It can be a narrow attack range, difficulty in exerting power, or speed of activation.

But… Steam Explosion has no such disadvantages.

The attack range is wide, the power is instantaneous, and the spell just explodes in front of the enemy.

Indeed, cheating magic.

However…….

"Is it still inferior?"

The “Steam Explosion” that has just been activated is quite inferior to the magic I used in BBO.

That's because the skill level is low.

BBO was a game where skill levels were very different.

With just one skill level change, the usability of magic changes like another.

Instead, you'll need rare items to raise your skill by one.

…… I saw my current magic and I was determined.

After all, I need Steam Explosion II.

"Okay ... let's go"

I decided, and drank "The Medicine of Wisdom".
