I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~

Episode 104: The Spring of Kitakami Is A Little Ahead

It may only be a small fire for mankind, but for us it was a light for the future!

"Congratulations, Luca! Now you're one of the wizards!

"I'm so familiar! You deserved to come!

"Thank you, Mr. Beat! Thank you, Mr. Cristala!

The journey is on the way from Parker to Oats, while camping on a plain near a slightly open rock field. The sun has already set and only a slight afterglow can be seen in the western sky.

In that dim darkness, a small fire, like a candle, swayed around Luca's right fingertip. It's weaker than a campfire, but it's an orange warm flame. Finally, Luca was able to use her magic.

Christella said it was thanks to his visit to the Great Temple of Leibra, but it may not be too far off. The grounds of the Great Temple were filled with fairly intense magic. If you had a bit of magic, you'd have to jump up your sleeping assistant talent.

As soon as Luca thought she could manipulate magic, she could light a flame on her fingertips. Normally, she tried a lot to find out her attributes, but she thought it was a fire attribute, so she was able to express her magic lightly.

Why was her attribute predictable? It's my magic sense. Previously, when I fought Count Lawrence of Jarkin, a fire-attributed wizard, his magic looked red and glowing. In other words, red is the magical color of fire. Luca's magic wasn't as strong as Lawrence's, but it had a red color. So she could have predicted that it would be a fire attribute.

In this world, the magic of fire attributes falls into a very popular category. Not many people can use it, but whoever sees it clearly sees it as magic.

But let me tell you, it is also the most mysterious magic of attribute magic. For some reason, it takes the form of "fire" at the time of expression.

In the first place, fire refers to "intense chemical reactions with heat generation and light emission." Junior high school science. Most people view fire as heat, but heat is only one element of fire, and its essence is' chemical reaction '. In other words, taking the form of fire is causing a chemical reaction, something must be burning. However, fire magic doesn't know what's burning.

If the magic element itself is burning, the magic should gradually decrease. In fact, it seems that the magic is gradually decreasing from the ignited fire, but the degree of magic is not severe compared to wind magic or water magic. Above all, Lawrence made a fire out of it. That means we've flown everything that's going to burn. But what is at stake? I'm sure the magic elements have something to do with it... well, if the magic itself is called a mystery, that's all. I can't help worrying too much. Let's stop worrying deeply. You look bald.

Anyway, what's more important is that Luca becomes a wizard. Now all six of our early allies have learned to manipulate magic. Except for Samantha and Woo, it can now be expressed.

Even if Wu had no choice, it would be nice if Samantha could express it, but anyway, I don't know what the attributes are, so there's nothing I can do about it.

According to the magic sensors, Samantha's magic is light purple. People with magic of this color can be seen at about one in a hundred people. Unusual, but more than no attributes. Unattributed magic has only been seen by me, Christella and Daisy so far. In terms of rarity, is the lack of attribute UR and purple SR? Rarity is not the strength, but I can't help it if I don't know how to use it in the first place. That's the challenge ahead.

"So, what's Luca's reward for being able to use magic? Is Cristala and Kikka alike?

I think Kikka said something like that when she learned magic.

"That's...."

"I'll tell you when this trip is over and we're back in Dollars or Border Sets."

"Don't let me. I'm not in a hurry, and I'll probably have other daughters I want."

"I see. Let's all share happiness. Ufufu"

Phew. Well, that's fine then. "

Hmm, is it something we can all share? I wonder if you can force a new sweet? I don't have that many repertoires. It's a request from an unusual companion, let's try to squeeze it out of the little knowledge of the previous life. If it works, we can use it as a new menu for the "Pigeon Puppy Pavilion". Luca learned the magic of fire, making it easier to bake and grill.

"Fire magic is useful. Easier to cook."

"Camping is easy, isn't it? You don't have to be careful with the sparks."

"... bright"

Thinking didn't seem so different. Fire magic is synonymous with attack magic, but it seems to us to be only useful magic for life. Well, any force depends on how you use it. I have nothing to say if I use it peacefully. Peace is best.

But the city of Oats, which arrived the next day, was a battlefield. It's not peace.

Wooden lacquered white exterior walls have collapsed all over the city, and there is not one or two places where black smoke still shines. The drifting air is also burning, and the city looks like smoke.

The clothes of the people who sat on the street without strength were dirty with soot, dirt, and blood everywhere, and few people wrapped bandages somewhere in their bodies. When we pass by, we raise our face slightly, but there is no light in the eyes, and we can only read despair or abandonment from the expression.

It's like watching a civil war in the Middle East on a news show. I never thought I'd be able to see with my own eyes what happened on the other side of the monitor.

They say there was a pirate raid half a day ago, just after dawn. Three days after the war became full-fledged, there were raids, and it was ridiculous to even count them a few times already.

Until a few months ago, Hautes was the best city on the Lute Sea coast in the kingdom, but it now has no function as a city, and most of its inhabitants have fled, been killed, or captured. It seems that the only people left in this city are the elderly, the sick, and the destitute, who cannot afford to travel to other cities. It was also the old man who said that with a bandage around his head.

The Landlord's army seems to be working hard, but after most of the ships were sunk in the early raids, they will.

The situation was worse than I had expected.

"Here...

Luka led me to the nearest corner of the harbor, where there were only a few black columns and rubble left to burn. No, it's not just here. The area around here was similar. This is where Luca and Samantha were born and raised... the site.

"... damn it. I knew it... goddamn it."

"Sammy...."

Samantha shakes her shoulders and leans down, and Luca hugs her from behind. I'm sure there were a lot of family memories stuck in the house. It was taken irrationally and changed my life. I can't even guess. However, I understood that Samantha's anger for revenge was legitimate.

The sea breeze in March is still cold.

Our destination is still ahead of Oates.

When we left the city of Oates that day, we headed further north to the front-line territory of the Count of Minos. It's the territory of Bitch's parents, who instigated Prince Stupid. However, Count Minos has already been captured for treason against the kingdom and transferred to the kingdom of the Family Party. The territory is now confiscated and under the direct control of the Royal Family, and is manned and controlled by the Royal Army, mainly the Third Knights. Therefore, it is now correct to call the former Vicomte de Minos. Well, it doesn't matter.

The former Vicomte de Minos had not been plundered from Noran thanks to his contacts with Jarkin. There appear to be sporadic raids nowadays, but no major damage appears to have occurred due to the presence of the Kingdom's main forces in the northeast. What irony is it that the front line is less damaged than the rear?

One of the things I've been worried about for a long time was the question, "Why don't you march on Nolan by land?" But I actually came to the border (here) and found out why. Sure, it's not impossible to use land... but it'll be pretty difficult.

It's a cliff wall.

It's almost like 'no entry from here', and the cliff, which is 500 meters high, blocks the northern border of the former Countess of Minos. Not the walls of Berlin or the Great Wall. The wall stretches east from the coast and continues far beyond the border with neighboring Ende. Was it raised by a fluctuation in the crust? It's a lot bigger, but in the fantasy world, it's no wonder there's something like this.

In front of the cliff is a large river, which makes it difficult to march again. Even though it is near the estuary, the flow is sudden and the depth seems to be quite high. It will also be difficult to mount a ship. I don't think I can send in any soldiers. Fortunately, it is subtle if I may say so, but it seems unlikely that Noran will be able to send troops in. That's why this is the border.

"It seems that this" Dragon Clash "has become a cliff wall on the Noran side. It's about a kilometer wide, and it's an elongated terrace to the east and west."

"Hmm. You know me, Christella."

"Oh ho ho, this is so natural! Even so, my grades at school were good!

Christella laughs behind her back, as if she were a Temple villain. Should I roll my hair vertically? But it's going to take a while on the set. I don't have a hairdryer or a curler... can you handle it with Luca's fire magic? Well, it's definitely not an adventurous hairstyle. Let's consider it.

"Dora" is the name of the goddess of richness and the earth. Farmers mainly believe in it. It seems that the Grand Temple is located further east of Ende. I haven't even been to the neighbor Ende yet, but when can I go further?

"So, what are you going to do now? Are we going over this? Or from the sea?

"Nh ~, dare you, let's take a break in the city. You've been a force up to here. From here on out, we'll be investigating, so let's just sit back and go."

"If that's the case, let's eat first! Explore delicious restaurants!

I have to investigate Christella's brother's safety. You will be staying in this former Vicomte de Minos territory for a while. The base is Gizan, the territorial capital where the garrison is located.

Now, this is your first research request, and you want to stick with it!
