Madman in a Fantasy World

85. hard counter

“Aww!!”

rolling around.

Leeche rolls on the floor.

It had been rolled so many times that her clothes were already a mess, and her pretty face had dirt and scratches on it.

“Oh my gosh, it hurts.”

It’s not usually painful to roll like that.

The floor is neither flat nor soft.

There is a considerable slope, and the terrible terrain with stones rolling everywhere is a rocky mountain.

If you roll in a place like this, it’s not a big deal to hurt your delicate skin like that.

Then what am I doing right now while the liche rolls.

I was eating popcorn while laying on a mat and watching.

As a bonus, Yui and Luna are also sitting next to me.

Dozens of minutes have already passed since the hunt began.

Originally, a fight wouldn’t last this long unless it was boiling.

Looking at the situation, the Salamanders had the upper hand.

Even so, the reason why it took so long was because Leeche managed to avoid it even though she had no form.

If he had rolled like that, he would probably give up, but asking for help wasn’t worthless. Persistence is good.

“Rice’s attacks hardly work.”

“It’s a hard counter.”

It wasn’t that Leeche couldn’t defeat just one C-class monster.

The opponent was just bad. As a bonus, several conditions overlapped, and Lee was at a disadvantage.

Salamander, like the king slime I caught, is a monster measured based on a party of 3.

Therefore, now Richie is serving three people by herself.

Furthermore, salamanders are resistant to fire like a monster that shoots fire.

On the other hand, however, the lychee is human.

Humans naturally have no tolerance for fire.

Not only that, only fire magic that Liche’s attack doesn’t work.

However, the Salamander also has sharp claws and teeth, and has a tough hide that can withstand physical attacks.

In a word, Leeche’s perfect upper compatibility.

He uses his mana like a barrier to block damage as much as possible, but even that, as the battle continues, his mana runs out and his stamina depletes.

In a word, it is said that even if you are enduring that well, if you continue like this, the defeat of Richie is certain.

And if you’re in danger of dying, I won’t save you and return.

If the limit of whining for help like that is to die because you can’t overcome that, it’s better to die instead of revenge.

“By the way, Mr. Luke, I have a question.”

“Yunheo.”

“…Isn’t that level raised by killing monsters?”

“Right.”

“But why did you choose the Salamander, which is difficult for Mr. Riche, and not the King Slime, which is easy to catch?”

As Luna said, the way to get stronger quickly is to level up.

Until now, when I caught monsters, I only looked at the experience and caught them, and in fact, I became strong enough to chew through most events in a short period of time.

By the way.

“Are you like Richie and me?”

I don’t have magic anyway, and there are new technologies, but there are none.

Even if you don’t have skills, you can cover them with skills.

That’s why it’s good to raise the level quickly, but on the other hand, what about the lychee?

Like me, there is no status window and no skills. Enlightenment and technology are solely up to you.

What do you do when you catch king slime and level up?

Will you use a level 100 fire ball when the demon comes out later?

Level 1 Sunspot Explosion.

That’s why I purposely left King Slime behind and came as Salamander.

You have to be driven to the brink of death to gain enlightenment and create new technologies.

“Can’t you tell me the technique Riche used in the novel?”

“I know what technology it is, but how do I explain it?”

I don’t even have magical powers, how can I use my magical powers against the lychee and what techniques do I use!

can you sound like this?

Do you think you can explain the structure if I give you Luna a smartphone?

“Surely… I guess so.”

“Oh, it rolled again.”

While Luna and I were talking, the fireball hit the body and flew away in shock.

After rolling several laps, Richie came to a stop this time in front of the rock where we were.

“hahahaha···.”

“Shall we eat?”

“·······?”

When I hinted at having lunch while I was lying on the floor, she turned her head at the sudden voice of a person.

Then my eyes meet and I am surprised.

He didn’t even know when he came near us.

“…no, I don’t like it.”

“You’ve almost used up your mana anyway.”

“It’s okay because I can still stand.”

Is your new skill stubbornly stubborn?

– growl.

However, Liche’s body did not know the master’s mind and appealed for its own hunger.

“·······.”

Still, I wonder if there was such a thing as humiliation, but just now, not only my face but also my ears turned red at that sound.

The problem is, if there’s one thing we overlooked while we were messing around like this, it’s that the hunt isn’t over yet.

“······!”

Suddenly, a large fireball flew right where we were.

It was blown by the Salamander, who had been fighting with Leeche until just now.

The body that had been hit so far quickly detected and leaped.

“What, what are you doing?! You’re not avoiding it?!”

I was just right.

Originally, if it was magic-related, it was almost nullified, but there’s no way you’ll get hurt by a Salamander or something.

And I thought it would be like this, so I went to catch king slime in the past.

Because it’s too easy even if it’s easy.

“Young car.”

Having been hit by fire, I got up from my seat.

If you say you don’t eat rich, you can just eat it by yourself.

But then again, if something like sparks pops up and the pot overturns, I think I can’t stand it at that time, so I prevent it in advance.

As soon as I got up, I walked in the direction of the Salamander.

Naturally, the Salamander who saw me approaching went mad. He kept firing at me as I walked, and when I got closer he bared his teeth like a ferocious Chihuahua.

“Use it! Stay calm!”

When a piece of bamboo bread is pounded on the burning body, the fire in the body goes out and the body becomes limp.

In that state, I grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and dragged him along, tying the wire rope I had bought while hunting Rhino Horn around my neck and connecting it to a nearby rock.

and go back

“…I’m kind of depressed.”

“What did you say.”

***

Lunch is tonkatsu, one of men’s soul foods.

There is no particular reason why it is suddenly called pork cutlet.

i just want to eat

Even people who don’t know the basics of cooking know how to make tonkatsu.

Except for the cumbersome things to do at home in the first place, making pork cutlet itself is simple, and the ingredients were all easy enough to obtain even in the Middle Ages.

Rather, it was an era when bread was the staple food, so there was an overflow of bread crumbs.

The sauce couldn’t be made the same, so I made it roughly edible by adding tomatoes, sugar, and vinegar.

When it comes to food, no fantasy can match Earth.

In particular, tonkatsu is a food that even Jammin, who is known for being picky about their taste, likes.

“Um~!”

Upon tasting the taste for the first time, Yui put her palms on both cheeks and expressed happiness with her whole body.

After all, there’s nothing like tonkatsu to soothe kids.

Luna seemed to be eating quietly on the outside, but you could tell what she was thinking by the wagging tail or twitching ears.

And while Richie was thinking about something seriously, only his mouth was moving.

I didn’t know what he was thinking, so I was just eating.

“Luke, what do you think?”

“What.”

“The reason why I can’t win.”

That’s because you’re so damn weak.

The strong don’t worry about that.

Liche, who looked so strong in the novel, looks infinitely weak now outside the academy.

“Why are you asking me that?”

“The person watching from the side can judge more objectively than the person himself.”

It’s just passing it on.

No, it’s more strange that I don’t know what the problem is.

Was he that stupid?

“Have you ever noticed that you magic wrappers have poor imaginations?”

“···imagination?”

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Magic is a supernatural power that twists the providence of nature.

Even if there is no oxygen, you can light a fire using magic as a medium, you can make ice even in an empty field without a drop of water, and you can move the ground without a shovel.

Even with that kind of power, all you can do is release it as it is or create a wall.

Is it because you have power? Children’s imagination is impoverished.

Humanity with magic feels rather degenerate.

“Didn’t you see Lucia use magic the other day?”

“I did, but… how do you know that?”

“I saw it as a novel.”

I couldn’t see the scene where Lucia shoots magic. Because I was inside the Behemoth at that time.

Still, I know because I saw the description of Lucia using magic in a novel.

“Didn’t you think anything of it?”

“I thought it was amazing.”

“So you’re trash.”

No, he gives a free demonstration of his high-level magic in front of him, and all he could think of was that it was amazing?

Do you know what the first thing people who work in hotel kitchens do?

Wash the dishes right away.

because? watch and learn

But Richie didn’t realize anything after watching it, he just thought it was amazing. Just because you said you washed the dishes is like actually washing the dishes.

“First, let’s make a blue flame.”

“Blue flame? Isn’t that possible only if you have a lot of magical power like the dean?”

“Luna. Example.”

Luna, who could interpret my words without saying anything, would have understood the meaning of what I just said.

It’s troublesome to explain any more, and nothing is more certain than seeing it for yourself.

I’d rather show you an example. Of course, since I don’t have magic power, Luna.

Luna raised a hand.

Then a cool breeze blew around.

The insignificant wind, which could not be called an attack, gathered on Luna’s hand according to her will.

Eventually, the wind assumed the shape of a sphere and started revolving on its own without injecting mana.

This is called condensation.

Luna spread the sphere of wind that was created thinly.

When Luna swung lightly at it, which had become similar to a sword, a nearby rock was cut off as if tofu.

It is an attack that adds application to condensation.

“Oh. This is it.”

“Didn’t you tell me to try it out…?”

“When did I?”

I told you to try it, but I didn’t say you knew.

Literally, I have no magical powers, right? So I was just imagining it.

I wonder if it will work.

“Anyway, I didn’t want you to tell me.”

“… that’s right.”

Well, if Lucia had done it, she would be able to do swordsmanship by floating dozens of swords around her.

To sum it up, saying I can’t do it because I don’t have enough magic power is an excuse.

Afterwards, Richie stuffed the remaining food into her mouth and stood up.

And went straight to Salamander.

The fainted Salamander also regained consciousness just in time and recognized Leechee as an enemy.

The two went straight into battle as before, but things were different.

A large fire was formed in Riche’s hand, but he did not blow it like before.

Rather, the fire gradually faded, and before I knew it, only a small white sphere remained in her hand, which was difficult to see as an attack.

It meant only one thing. That it was much stronger than when it was a red flame.

The color of the flame depends on the temperature of the fire, but it’s still in the middle stage, so I don’t even want blue.

Richie gently flew the fireball.

Like blowing a dandelion. very slowly and silently.

I don’t know who’s right about that, but that’s enough for now. Weakness correction can be done later, because Salamander is tied up right now.

-Kreurreuk!!!

Salamander tried to offset it with fire as before, but all the fire Salamander fired was swallowed up by the fireball sent by Leechee.

The fire, which was only the size of a snot, grew to the size of a soccer ball after making it his own, including the salamander’s fire and the fire attached to his body.

The slow-moving fireball touched the salamander’s body, but did not stop, piercing through the skin and melting the bones and flesh.

And at the end, it exploded and decorated the finale.

Richie, who was watching the scene.

“I did it…”

He collapsed with only one word left.
