Chapter 15.1
Part A
Translator: Erossssss
Note: Changed Nameless name into permanent None. After I read it up once again, she calls herself None when saying her name (above the kanji nameless is read as None). And no, I wont change Rionas name. I like it that way.
During the time until I reach 4 years old, to not make my parents worry too much about me, I would not officially do any quest. Instead I will use [Coaching] instead and I will focus on that to learn, train, and strengthen my skill
I will use [Request]to those people who owns [Nurturing] or [Coaching] skill as such kind skill would enable them to educate other in a better output. Of course I have to raise their intimacy level first above certain level to be able to have a better chance in acquiring the skills from them. Well, when I use [Request], I would need to pay them with items, money, or even by doing some work for them.
When it was in the game, it is impossible to give present to all the NPC so I can only increase my intimacy with only a few possible NPC only. But in this Magiahaim, things are of course different from the game. As long as they can communicate, on theory, then their intimacy level could be increased.
The one skill that I specially focused on to train is the [Sacred Sword Art] skill. Filianes-san owns the [Nurturing] skill so since 3 years old forth, Ive been asking her to teach me the skill. And the result is, the skill increased quickly by leap and bounds. Along with it, I also keep on training my [Ax Mastery] by splitting firewood everyday so it gradually increases bit by bit. In these two years, I managed to level it up until it reaches the second major point of level 50. Because my [Ax] mastery is already high, I dont bother taking [Sword mastery] and use Ax instead of sword to activate my magic sword skill which made my skill look a bit irregular.
For the magic skill needed as the prerequisite of the magic sword skill, I ask the adventurer None-san to teach her elemental magic, and also I ask the grandmother of my same age friend Milty, Obaba-sama (literally, exalted grandma but I let it be that way) to teach me her spirit magic. Filianes-san also uses spirit magic but Obaba-sama is the famous [Witch of Mizell], her spirit magic skill has broken through the level 50 barrier! She is indeed worthy to be called a high ranked magician. Besides that, she also lives nearby so I can ask for her coaching everyday with ease. And then there is also white magic to that I learn from Sarasa-san but there is not much progress as I can still use the basic healing skill only.
Everyone calls the Witch of Mizell with a respectful title of Obaba-sama because she is the one who ask to be called that way every time she receives any pupil under her. Her real name is Neris Aurelia.
(Neris/ Obaba-sama use an ancient kind of speech befitting her grandma character. But I cant do it in English orz)
Hiroto boy, thy has mastered spirit magic until the intermediate level. After a bit while longer, I sure would have nothing left to teach you. You better go out to play with Milty now
Theres no such thing as that. Obaba-sama might not want to continue teaching me but, I still want to thoroughly master magic
Fumu Well, if thy say so, its alright for thee to try. But if thy ask for more, there will definitely be risk involved with the process. And sure the risk is not as simple as the previous Mandragora uprooting training I warn thee
Mandragora ---- the crops that Obaba-sama cultivates, a plant that is similar to a root crops. When uprooted, it will let out a [Repulsive Shriek] which will give a fixed 400 mana damage to the one uprooting it. If one can endure it, they will get the mandragora but for those people with low [Magic Grounding] skill, their mana will be instantly depleted and turn crazy on the spot. In another word, instant game over.
To help increasing my spirit magic to level 30, the task that Obaba-sama asked me to accomplish as payment for her [Coaching] is to help her uprooting mandragora and she let me be creative with how I uproot those. The most mainstream way would be by using a tamed monster to pull it out instead but my slime has grown big and I dont want to lose her just for this so I pull it out by myself. I thought I was gonna die when the mandragora start screaming but from the process of recovering mana after that also gave me experience too so it also helps in training my [Magic Grounding] skill.
Of course, to avoid accident, the mandragora cultivation bed was placed in the underground of Obaba-samas hut beyond a locked door. The amazing thing from mandragora is that if eaten fresh, it can give tons of experience for [Magic Grounding] skill but, from all the mandragora that I uproot, Obaba-sama only give me a fragment of it to eat. Even so, my magic grounding still manage to level up until level 40 which made my maximum mana capacity to raise until it reaches over 500 ---- if I have this much mana then I would not need to hesitate to use magic in rapid succession ever again.
Later, Obaba-sama teaches me about other usefulness of mandragora. This plant is just like a disfigured puppet shaped carrot which is horrible to see but it actually have more hidden use than just to increase [Magic Grounding] skill as it can also be used as medicine.
The mandragora that thee uprooted is actually used as the ingredient for a certain secret wonder drug. That wonder drug is effective against all kind of disease and even return people from the brink of death back to top fitness. The most secret of secret of the pharmacy world the medicine known as Elixir
Elixir so there is an amazing medicine like that
In game, there are no healing items that give the effect of [complete recovery]. Whether its health or mana, it will only gradually recover after drinking the corresponding potion. If there is an item that will give instant life and if that item can be used repeatedly, on theory, anybody could beat any strong boss with ease. Because it was not possible in game, the difficulty level is kept at the balanced level.
I have the recipe to create that potion but I dont have the necessary ingredient for it. If the time comes when thee managed to gather all the ingredient, I will give half of it to thee. I am even willing to help thee enlighten thee way to reach advanced level spirit magic
Yes! I will try to collect it someday!
With the request from Obaba-sama, it finally generates the quest to advance my understanding in spirit magic. Well, I can still level it up by myself but, by accomplishing quest like this, it will give more efficiency in leveling.
But these ingredients are things that might be or might not be able to get even if thee search for it in thy entire lifetime. And such thing like advanced level spirit magic already isnt only belonged to a handful of people I heard that the Holy Knight Filianess already reached that level. That girl already reaches beyond that of a normal human. To get that strong, I wonder what her intention to do with it
Obaba-samas eyes narrowed under her trademarked-for-witch pointy hat. Her face is mostly hidden by her hood so all I can see is only her eyes but, I can sometimes see a hint of affectionate color inside those eyes.
