The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life

The girls and I wentshoppingat the street booth plaza.

First we need to go buy Claude a sword!

In the fight a few days ago, Claudes sword had broken, and now she was currently unarmed.

Right now her scabbard only had the hilt of her horribly broken sword sheathed in it.

No, Im fine really..

Of course youre not alright. Be that as it may, we dont have any leeway in our finances. So later Ill buy something appropriately cheap.

Thats awful!

Though it isnt great for Claude, right now theres something we need to buy even more.

Putting that aside, could the both of you look for an armored knight card? Id like you to find two of them for about 100,000 rupi or less each

100,000? And two of them!? Dont we only have 300,000 rupi? Were just gonna suddenly spend such a large amount of money?

Since we need it anyways. First we should prepare the most expensive and useful general equipment for our use.

A card is a rare item that monsters drop that is extremely scarce and expensive. If you enchant equipment with them, many different effects can be achieved.

The armored knight card when added onto equipped armor (or clothes), gave the effect of reducing all damage by something like 20 percent, making it a card with some of the highest all-purpose usefulness when added to armor.

The armored knights hunting ground was a popular spot for high level adventurers to hunt, so a fair number were being hunted, so the price wasnt too inflated.

Wed buy three but wed lose our funds for living, so well only get two this time. Well enchant Milly and Claudes armor.

What about you Zeph?

Because Claude is the vanguard its absolutely necessary for her, and Milly isnt yet good enough at moving around during battle. But I on the other hand, wont receive fatal damage if I conduct myself as I usually do

Even though you are always getting injured..?

..How annoying, I still havent taken any fatal wounds, you know?

In the first place I could use Safe Protection, even two people wouldnt be a problem. Claude seemed to sense the mood and changed the topic.

Oh yeah! Milly-san, should we compete to see who can find the cards cheapest? The loser has to do one thing the winner says

Alright! Ill take you on!

While I was picking a fight, Claude enjoys competition more.

The two of them energetically disappeared into the street booth plaza.

I myself went to look for a weapon for Claude.

Oh, theres a short sword for 5,000 rupi.

Thats cheap.

Claude will have to settle for this for a while.

After all, the armored knight cards were 100,000 rupi each, but we were able to get them for 98,000 rupi each.

It ended with Claude as the victor.

Milly was frustrated at her bad luck, but once she understood that Claude had honestly bargained the cards prices down, she admitted her defeat.

Claude is such a reliable person.

When we got back to the inn, we enchanted Millys mini dress and Claudes plate with the cards. The equipment absorbed the cards and were given the 20% damage reduction effect.

Is it alright to use such a worn out thing? Shouldnt we have put it on better defensive equipment than this?

Good defensive equipment is much more expensive than a card. For now, any equipment is good enough, when you add the armored knight card itll become defensive equipment.

If we find second-hand equipment at the stalls then its all well and good, but without knowing who wore it or what it was used for, the two girls might not want to use it. For my part Ill find some quality second-hand goods and change their minds sooner or later.

Oh yes Claude, could you go out with me a little later? I have some things Id like to test.

I dont really mind though?

Im coming too~!

Milly you clean up your luggage that you threw in my room. Its completely messed upyou need to throw out the unnecessary stuff or something but get it out of my room.

Aaawww~!

If youre gonna complain then put it all in your room.

Milly pouts and puffs out her cheeks as she begins to clean up my room. We leave and move to a different location. Claude tried to help, but you cant spoil Milly like that. She needs to be able to clean up her own messes.

Outside the Town

Theres a lot of things Id like to hear about your Screen Point Claude. Could you please tell me about it?

I dont mind at all

At that time, Kane had used his spell invalidation magic Screen Point. If we can make use of this magic, then the number of hunting grounds we can utilize will increase.

Screen Point is, as I said before, a magic that invalidates spells effects. Though I say that, the magics effect is dependent on the conditions and the person using it, my brothers Screen Point is usually able to eliminate almost all magic cast at him, but mine can only do about half.

Could you let me see you use it for a bit?

Sure its fine

Saying that Claude closed her eyes and began to silently cast her magic.

As she concentrated, I began to see some sort of thin, see-through membrane covering Claudes body. I reached out and touched Claudes body, and once I did my magical aura was shaved off in an instant.

Rather than blocking magic power, it was more like a magic that devoured magical power.

I cast Scout Scope on Claude.

Claude Leonhardt

Magic Power Level

Certainly her Screen Point was weaker than Kanes. When I tried to cast Scout Scope on Kane, it didnt even activate.

Now its about time for me to fire some magic at you alright?

Wai-please stop! Painful things will still hurt me you know!

That was a joke

Are you telling the truth? Is what her face seemed to be saying.

As I thought, it appears that it could only eliminate the effects of magic to a certain extent.

Claude released her Screen Point and she looked a little worn out.

It might be my imagination but, Claudes magical aura seems to be fairly depleted.

Perhaps, I think and cast Scout Scope.

Claude Leonhardt

Level 26

Red Magic Value 9, Magic Limit 45

Blue Magic Value 5, Magic Limit 39

Green Magic Value 0, Magic Limit 40

Sky Magic Value 0, Magic Limit 47

Soul Magic Value 0, Magic Limit 51

Magic Power 149/456

Kanes magic power was only 39.

In other words, Screen Point was a magic that was usable with that level of magical power. Nevertheless, Claudes magic power had decreased by 300.

Claude Id like you to use ball

Ok

Could you let me see you fire five at that boulder over there?

Thats fine

Saying that she turned to face the rock, and cast Red Ball five times.

The rock only ended up slightly burnt with a few cracks in it.

Claudes magic level was low so this is all it would amount to.

I cast Scout Scope and when I looked, Claudes magic power was 50.

Can you use Screen Point one more time?

Eeeeh~ Im already tired though.

Even though she says that, Claude starts to cast Screen Point again.

This girl seems like the type who cant refuse a request.

As I think that, I cast Scout Scope on Claude again.

As expected, thats how it was.

Screen Point is a magic that increases in strength the less magic power you have.

In other words, the magics called Mage Killers, are exactly what they sound like magic that kills magic.

The effect is that the one who uses this magic, will in all likelihood be affected by the magics effects as well. Therefore, there are very few mages who would use the Mage Killer magics, basically the only ones who would use this would be those who dont use magic in their occupations.

Claude would it be alright if I fired one spell at you?

I already said you couldnt!

Itll be fine, it wont hurt at all. Do you think Im lying to you?

Eeeehh~? I, I said no~

Dont worry, Ill use my weakest one

I say, and to lessen her nervousness I give her my best pretty boy smile and cast Blue Ball.

I let the ball standby above my right hand, and for some reason Claude seems incredibly nervous and is looking at me with unease.

Why?

I invoke Blue Ball, and even though it hits her directly, Claude, of course, suffers no damage.

How about that? I think as Claude stares at me in confusion and disbelief.

And I even told her not to worry.

Most likely Screen Point is a magic that when activated, is more effective the less magic power you have. Kane was born with very little magic power, so when he uses Screen Point he almost has zero magic. Thats why hes almost invincible against magic.

Eeeh~How do you know something like that?

Uhh.

..Ah crap, Scout Scope was supposed to be kept a secret.

Ahh whatever, Claudes already a close comrade.

Shes already told me all about Screen Point, so I cant really keep on hiding it.

I explained Scout Scope to Claude and she seemed pretty surprised.

Scout Scope..Is it. Its a pretty terrifying magic

Its a secret

I understand. You cant teach this kind of magic to someone unless theyre a friend or comrade.

Well there was a certain dumb girl who bragged about this magic immediately after meeting me.

Im just sayin.

Certainly my father said something like that. That if a person was weak in magic skills Screen Point would be more powerful.

The Leonhardt family was a lineage of knights, so they probably hadnt experimented too much with magic.

Also one more experiment. Could you put this on?

I say that and hand her my worn out old clothes. Claude takes them with a confused expression.

During the fight with Kane, Crimson Blade tore up his clothes, while my Red Crash didnt hurt him at all. Id like to know the exact effects of this magic.

By the way Safe Protections 90% damage reduction has been applied to the equipment.

..In other words, you want to see if my clothes will rip if Im using Screen point.right?

Yep

Claudes face blushes red before my eyes and she cries out in a high pitched voice.

Wha..What are you thinking?! Zeph-kun you pervert!

No, thats why I had you change into my old clothes ok?

That makes you sound even more perverted!

In the end Claudes extreme opposition ended the experiment before it started.

Even though it was a necessary experiment
