The Strongest Wizard Who Makes Full Use of the Strategy Book

For the first time, I rode a floating carpet.

According to the Strategy Book, there are only five precious Magic Items classified as Rank A in the Kingdom of Laxta.

It's a vehicle that can float with roughly six people on board and run like a slippery ground.

As long as it is limited to the maximum speed at straight forward, it can also be twice as fast as a horse.

"This should take less than two hours to reach the Great Pit."

And Aria, sitting next to me, said.

Yes, this precious carpet is the property of her - not least the Malm Chamber of Commerce.

It was on the border between the Kingdom of Laxta and the Kingdom of Hurricane and had been specially loaned to go to a further secluded Megolaus Grand Pit.

Had it not been for this carpet, it would have been about a week's walk one way, even if it had been shortcut at the "Town Gate" to the nearest town.

"It'll help. Hey, Bazelph?

"Ooh. It is."

Behind us, the bassels were shrinking.

Dwarves don't like horseback riding, but apparently they don't like floating carpets either. It was from the beginning that the mouth count was low, but it was obviously shivering to the voice.

Well, I have no choice. Be patient to your destination.

"Mr. Magnus. I've got lunch for you too. Come eat."

"It's like a picnic."

I can't stop smiling bitterly at Aria, who opens her basket with a cow.

The "floating carpet (hovering carpet)" had no impediment to picking lunch because, no matter how fast it was going, there was hardly any shaking.

Aria's handmade sandwich was delicious.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

There is a great pit named Megolaus.

Rare deposits, known to produce magical rare metals such as Mithril, Adamantite and Orihalcon.

But that was a long time ago.

Due to its presence at the midpoint between Laxta and Haricon, both countries claimed ownership and Megolaus became a battlefield on occasion. A tragic battle was fought many times inside and outside the Great Pit.

And now it has been turned into an undead nest and abandoned.

of human stupidity, has become a symbolic spot.

We were at Aria's father's request - the extravaganza Mallum himself - and we were aiming for Megolaus.

As a reward for mining and bringing home large quantities of rare metal, it was the carriage of the "Orihal Consmith Hammer" held by the Malm Chamber of Commerce.

I hit the information in the Strategy Book and said, "Request for a Luxury Malm. Mine it in the Great Pit of Megolaus! 'It was the trigger that led me to discover the subquest.

Aria also told me she was going to follow me out in a dating mood, which surprised me slightly, but decided that, well, if I were there, there wouldn't be any danger. Either way, I have to protect Basself and if I do, neither one nor two will change much.

And thanks to Aria's accompaniment, she is thus allowed to use Marum Chamber of Commerce's secret "Floating Carpet (Hovering Carpet)," which was never the wrong choice.

Above all, it would be fun to have Aria with you during your journey (an important element that cannot be ignored).

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

"Is this the Great Pit of Megoraus?"

"Hmm. The entrance and passage are wide."

"Naturally. I used to dig, dig, dig, dig, dig. Well, there's no way it hasn't spread."

"I see Basself is right. Besides, isn't it a good idea? I think I can get in with the floating carpet."

"Do you still keep riding!? On this unreliable cloth!?

"It would be tough to keep walking to the back, wouldn't it? Whatever it is with me or your stubborn legs, there are limits to Aria's fine legs."

"Well! I'm so glad you're worried about me, Mr. Magnus."

"Gummm, it's up to you!

- As a result of the discussion, we rode straight in with the "floating carpet (hovering carpet)".

It's not straight in the pit, so I can't get out as fast as I can. Walking is no different.

But in terms of ease, it's out of step, and this is going to make exploration.

But even if it does, it's only a story of movement.

Before they broke in, monsters traveling through the pit attacked.

Rusty swords and shields, wearing decaying armor, skeletons - a bunch of skeleton soldiers.

"Poor - and stupid people, aren't they? This is the end of human desire. I can't even ascend, I just have to wander through this cave forever"

And he snorted as the bassel seemed uninteresting.

"Humans desire? Looks like the dwarves are mixed up, too?

And, I pointed out along with a mix of skeleton soldiers who were far shorter than humans and whose backbone was disappointing.

"Hum. You're just a chick. It can't be a dwarf."

"You won't admit it? You're a stubborn guy."

Me and Basselph, you two smack each other in the mouth, laughing without giving in.

Basselph's guy, "The Floating Carpet (Hovering Carpet)" scares you, but he's not afraid of the undead monster at all.

On the contrary, it was Aria.

When you witness the creepy looks of the skeleton soldiers, "he" fades away.

We're talking ahead of time, and she would have decided to be ready, but I guess the degree of fear was still different from hearing it and actually seeing it.

Still, Aria didn't expose herself to any kind of panicky, fussy ugliness, either.

You'd want to stick with me, just pinch my long coat hem with your trembling hands so you wouldn't get in the way of my battle, and I endured.

What a healthy daughter!

I cast a spell in a loud voice to break her fear.

"Muura a nu a bain on len tilt!"

A myriad of pitch-black arrows burst from the Great Demon's Wand I put up.

"Mana Bolt."

It is the power of pure destruction, made of magic.

With other attack magic, the destruction range was too wide and I was anxious to use it in the pit. It threatened to cause a downfall.

However, this "Mana Bolt" is a single attack magic and has a medium effect.

Effectively destroys only the goal and does not harm the surroundings.

Moreover, the special ability of the Rank S gear "Grand Demon Wand" allows the group to be attacked with a "Mana Bolt" that is originally a stand-alone attack.

It manifested itself in the form of innumerable arrows, landing on one skeleton soldier after another, drawing and flying in complex orbits.

One blow must have fallen, and each of the skeletons, a Level 3 Miscellaneous Fish Monster, was dusted to the wood end.

"Oh my... one magic shot and you sweep it away...!

"Mr. Magnus, that's amazing!

Basself glances and admires, and Aria hugs him with extreme emotion.

Sure, if I use level 28, even the elementary magic "Mana Bolt" can give them incredible power.

If you used Mana Bolt III the other day, which you just learned, how would you react? Naughty hearts blur the back of my brain.

But let's not. I didn't come to see you. Unbeneficial MP squandering goes against my doctrine.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

My fast forward never stopped.

There were tons of skeleton soldiers roaming the tunnel, just as "full," but they were ravaged by my mass annihilation.

After the white bones were scattered, they were pushed through in a leisurely "floating carpet (hovering carpet)".

"... and you seem to have been a much more awesome wizard than I imagined."

and bazelphs and other impressively bearded beards.

Aria, on the other hand, seemed to understand that if I had it, I wouldn't be scared at all.

"Yikes. Demon before. Demons. Mr. Magnus, I'm frightened."

Happy as some kind of attraction already, big shabby, hugging me.

That's about as sweet as I understand it, too, that my spell chanting, which has been honed, will not be dusty or shaky. "It's frightening, frightening," he excuses, but he doesn't even care about Bazelph's eyes.

"... don't lose your way, my wizard"

Basself has also smiled bitterly, stabbing only nails there.

Regardless, I'm sorry for the softness of Aria's limbs with me and the foolishness with which she chomps, plagued by a good smell.

While kicking the skeleton soldiers, I'm still checking out the "Strategy Book".

There it is, drawn.

A complete map of the Great Pit of Megoraus.

Never get lost, even within a large pit as complex as an ant's nest, as long as you proceed with reference to this.

Vote (...) then (...) line (...) eh (...) then (...) doesn't get lost in (...) et al (...) even the deepest (...) part (...).

"We're here. Right here."

I stopped the floating carpet.

At the end of the narrow passage, when you reach a very open place, sweep the skeleton soldiers who were Ujauja. Secure the location.

Abandoned in the war while in the middle of mining, it's a rare metal mining site.

Here, the three of us plan to mine the Tsuruhashi - there's no way. There is more to inefficiency.

That's where I cast a new spell.

"Genk a tilt el!"

Occasionally in a void with nothing, a pitch-black gate opened.

At the end of the gate is connected to Laxtia, the king's capital.

And from the other side, the tenacious miners came all over.

Yes, connecting this mining site to the Wang capital at Town Gate brought in a large number of men hired by Aria's father, safely and at high speeds.

After that, I'm in charge of Tsuruhashi. If I leave it to them, Rare Metal is also a dimension called Zakuzaku.

Besides, some of the men hired by the luxury malm had a lot of caution sticks, so if we get this far, there's no way we can protect them from the skeleton soldiers just at the mining site.

My request is complete.

Come on, let's go get you an Orihal Consmith Hammer!

And finally, it's synthetic!
