Living as an Unemployed in Another World
Chapter 75
75 – 3. Two Adventurers (28)
28.
After listening to Zenith’s advice, I turned my eyes away from offensive magic such as magic missiles [Magic arrows], And there weren’t many options left for me. As long as the Book of Infinity [Infinite Magic Book] Was in my hand, there was no need to build my own magic spell to limit the range of spells, but anyway, the number of spells that could be used was limited to one if there was one slot.
So I listened to adventurers’ stories and imagined a place called a dungeon. To be precise, he thought about a place called a labyrinth that was complex, narrow, dark, and teeming with monsters. No matter how efficiently you use it, how many of them can you defeat with magic of that kind? No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t find an answer.
So, I gave up on defeating them. I have no thoughts of knocking it down. Entrusting all battles to other party members is enough. Thinking so, I opened the book without hesitation that day.
And the result is this. At this very moment when someone’s hand is holding my heart, I can finally become a wizard. The floor where the ghouls run, the floor made of rough and rough bricks that have been weathered for a long time. And, the ghouls running across the floor.
Grease means lubricant. It’s a beginner magic that means to grease the floor. However, my sorcery came out of my slot, forcing all of the ghouls to move, not just the floor.
“Greece 【Slide】.”
One order. Two commandments. In an instant, their path is filled with slippery oil. The ghoul that was running in front couldn’t beat the speed and fell forward and fell on its face, and all the other ghouls fell one after another.
The first magic to use in this world. My own magic. At that moment, I instinctively realized. My slots are by no means ordinary slots. Instead of sticking to my heart and choking my mental power every time I use it——it has more than a mere spell effect. It’s the floor that is oiled, but apart from that, my ‘will’ is showing an effect on the ghouls in the form of a curse. Otherwise, there would be no way that all of them would fall without exception.
“Awesome…… ! All those ghouls…… !”
Chloe was the first to admire it. With no staff or wand, no magical mediation whatsoever, just moving his mouth had an excellent effect, so it must be so. In addition, grease is just a low-level magic that even beginners who have just entered magic can use.
But——all of the knowledge of witches remains in my head. It means that a normal wizard can imitate her magic, which can never be reached until it rots and becomes a lich.
This is the sense. The existence of slots that enable knowledge to be applied in practice. I felt the empty slot with my body and was swallowed up in a shudder…… It was obvious. If it was just to knock him down, why would he use magic here? Without forgetting, I threw the torch in my hand into the middle of the stomping ghouls. Yap.
Grease is not a spell that makes you act ‘as if’ you were just lubricated, it’s a spell that puts real oil on it. And oil burns incredibly well. Especially if you have a lot of firewood like that.
“SCSVSVXXXSCSVVSP!!!!!!!”
The ghouls screamed and burst into flames. I’ve heard that the undead burn well, but it looks painful. It was pretty horrifying to see them tangled together and unable to get out, falling over and over again in the oil on the floor and being swallowed up by the fire, but I couldn’t look away. I captured all of that haze on my retina.
5 Years after I came to this world, I never imagined that the result of my sorcery would be displayed in a labyrinth like this, but I could not imagine the unfamiliarity, a little cruelty, and the unfamiliarity of the magic being used to kill monsters. The fullness of the missing size filled my chest.
I was determined. Mado is originally like this. I’m ready to see any number of burned bodies in the future if it’s for me to survive. Mira’s hand came up on my shoulder as I kept an eye on the screams and horrors.
“Jin…… Are you okay?”
“Yes.”
It’s okay. I gently brushed Mira’s pink hair, who worried about me as always. I’ll just have to move on
It would be nice if we could slay all the ghouls with just being burned, but unfortunately a few survived and tried to get out of the flames and come to us. And, all of those poor ghouls became prey for the other party members.
What is the sense of seeing a ghoul whose throat is slit without knowing what has happened to him, or a ghoul that is dying while looking at his body without half? Chloe must have learned how to defeat a ghoul she once defeated, so she easily pierced the forehead against a wounded ghoul. Eventually, as the flames slowly subsided, only the charred corpses of ghouls stood in our way.
“…… Let’s go.”
Everyone nodded. I deliberately looked at the charred corpses of the ghouls, passing by and thinking.
Suddenly, I remembered how Janice had put her hand on my chest and my complexion had gone bad. It’s nice to be able to use this slot and magic, but no matter how I look at it, it eats up my mental power too much. And, no matter how you look at it, it was not an effect that I, who had just started magic, could exert. In addition to the spell’s effect, you can curse the target at the same time? At least it didn’t apply to the ‘basic’ theory I knew.
From nob le mt l dot com
Not being basic is an additional effect because I am a person from another world, or if not——
“No way.”
“Yeah, what?”
“No.”
It can’t be. If that woman had been able to do this to me artificially, she wouldn’t have turned a blind eye to me from the start, saying she couldn’t use magic on me. Yeah, that’s why it doesn’t work So it can’t be.
I shook my head. I don’t think the number of slots will increase by using a spell once, but for some reason I think I can get a better effect the next time I use a spell. It’s not inference or anything, it’s just a feeling.
In many ways, annoying slots have been created.

After we burned all the ghouls to death, we went into every room in the hallway, but we couldn’t find anything other than the fact that all the ghouls inside had popped out, leaving only traces of someone once using them. Couldn’t Eventually, as Mira passed her ring back to Chloe following my instructions as she descended the stairs (Mira gave a truly gloomy expression), I suddenly remembered.
──The second floor is full of traps.
Are you referring to the traps that all the ghouls jumped out of? No, if that was the case, I would have expressed that the Knights struggled because of the monsters. Maybe the traps don’t work against us because they’ve run out of arrows? While I was thinking such a complacent thought, Mira stopped walking again.
“Here. You can’t just pass by. Everyone stick to the wall and follow me.”
It’s not that there aren’t any traps, it’s just that Mira was avoiding them all. As I wondered how a girl who had never been to a dungeon could faithfully fulfill her role as a thief, I suddenly remembered that she was a human who had finally survived and escaped from a heretical hideout full of all sorts of traps and devices. Indeed, is it the same in terms of s*x anyway?
Anyway, even if the trap problem was resolved, my anxiety was not completely resolved. Think about it, zombies on the first floor, ghouls on the second floor? So what the heck is going on underneath? I began to worry if I could survive safely on the third floor. Now I can’t even oil it, and all I have left is all kinds of cursed items.
At that time, Alphonse, who was walking side by side with me, must have noticed my frightened state, and pushed my back with his thick hand.
“Don’t worry.”
“Al…… Pons?”
“You are already doing your part. The rest is up to us as warriors.”
I stared at the green-skinned giant for a second. …… When you say this, it really makes me happy. I pretended to be okay and nodded. No, Mira, why are you jealous again? He growled as if a good scene had been taken away, and Chloe laughed awkwardly between the two when she saw it.
I know it’s not something I would do in a situation like this, but how can I say it——well, it feels like an adventure.
We descended the stairs again and soon reached the third basement floor, which even the Knights couldn’t reach. As expected, going down one floor did not change the structure. However, compared to the previous floor, which was filled with small rooms, I could see that the central space occupied a strangely large proportion. Speaking of rooms that take up a lot of volume in an old castle, is it a religious space like a church or cathedral? I followed Mira’s instructions and passed the corridor with everyone, killing my steps as much as possible.
If the crown is really somewhere here, it must be sleeping somewhere in a deep space where it is easy to prevent invasion from the outside. As I held up my newly chiseled flint torch, a brighter light overlapping the scope of Chloe’s ring showed me the structure ahead.
And then——.
Suddenly, everyone except me pulled out their weapons and started preparing for battle. Embarrassed by the sound of metal hitting my ears, I looked at the silhouette in front of me once again.
Yes, this is an underground labyrinth. The kingdom of the undead. A place where the dead bodies of people buried here in the distant past were resurrected as dead. If so, it makes sense only if the being who “Did” All of that work still exists here.
Soon, I was able to spot an undead walking slowly from the central room.
“——Ah. They are alive.”
That guy wears a huge crown split into quarters at an angle over his skull.
“Did I come here to die on my own feet? Poor——a living child.”
A skeleton giggling with its jaw joint out. No.
It was a lich [Resurrected wizard].
