The world's strongest hard worker

Episode 8 The Trial of Onyx

Even after Anna left town, I kept working alone.

I was adding more magic and learning magic.

Wisdom can only acquire knowledge and information, and the rest must be understood by yourself.

Magic is indispensable to become stronger.

I could remember the simple magic, but it's not yet practical.

There are still limitations to understanding for yourself.

Someone has to be able to teach you.

And today...

"River, you've kept me waiting. The training begins today."

Looks like I'm ready for the training I asked my father to do.

"First, I want you to learn the skill of demonization."

"Ghosts?

It seems to be a strong name somehow.

However, I used Wisdom to find out, but nothing came out.

"This skill gains the same power as a demon in the magical world. It will dramatically improve your physical abilities."

"The same power as a demon in the demon world... how could Dad know when he didn't know anything using this skill, Wisdom?

"Why not? That's a skill I invented."

"Can you knit out your skills..."

Sort of. I'm going to change places for now. "

My father led me to a cabin just outside the city.

The wooden hut looks beautiful and new.

"Dad, this is...."

"Oh, I've been building huts all week."

"Oh, thank you, Dad."

Considering that I spent about three days getting the copy, I think it was quite complete.

But did you have to build a hut? When asked....

"Why did you build the hut?"

Well, a little.

"To acquire" Demonization. "We're going in."

There are no windows in the shed.

When my father closed the door, it was dark.

... what the hell are you doing?

That made the room a little brighter.

A blue flame was floating.

Dad, what is this?

"Wisps. You'll soon know what this is for."

Hee, well, to get Ghost Manipulation.

I see. So, this is the main exercise, but I want you to meditate here. "

"... that's it?

"That's all."

Meditation...

Looks like we're going to do some mental training.

Is this a good idea? Is this a good idea? I think so.

Assemble Zen and close your eyes.

─ ─ After a while, my chest suddenly became painful.

I can't breathe.

At the same time, I felt that the wildfire had grown a little.

"─ ─ Gh, ahh, ha"

I try desperately to breathe, but it doesn't work.

Why is that?

"This wildfire burns magic and oxygen. So the concentration of magic and oxygen in this room is quite low."

That's why.

So how do I breathe?

I can't turn my head.

I can't figure it out.

"─ ─ Huh, huh"

"But that's too much to finish. That's why I made some improvements. As a result, the Oni-Fire will take away even the magic that lies inside you."

"─ ─ AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

I fell into a state of magic exhaustion, and a terrible headache struck me.

If the magic element is low, the amount of magic that naturally heals will also be low.

I can't...

Your consciousness is blurred.

The headache was stuck at a critical point.

... oh.

That's why I noticed.

Something unconsciously uncomfortable.

What it is has come to me.

Why can my father be flat in this room?

When I first spoke, the air in this room was already thinning.

Even though I was suffering from an inability to breathe, my father uttered no such gesture.

There must be something.

I can learn that using Wisdom.

But even if you use it in the dark clouds, you won't know the answer.

My father must have given me this trial.

Think about it...

... no, we're at our limit.

I'm unconscious.

And they've been robbed of their magic.

That's the limit.

... magic?

─ ─ That's right! Magic!

Assuming that breathing and magic are closely related, this test is quite effective.

Either way, they're both at their limit.

I thought this assumption was almost certain.

And the moment the body found hope with strange things, it came alive.

I can still go.

If you give up here, you can't be the strongest in the world.

Now I'm depleted of magic, but I hold magic instantly for as long as I'm recovering from Magic Recovery.

So just use it to break this situation.

Perhaps it would be best to think about my acquired skill, Magic Manipulation.

... nh, wait.

Then, there was a skill called "Magic Circle."

I was obsessed with acquiring the copy. I completely forgot the existence of the Magic Circle.

─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─

Skill Magic Circle

By acquiring this skill, magic can circulate throughout the body at any time. By circulating through the body, magic improves physical function and reduces magic consumption. Wizards get this to increase the total number of magical shots they can fire.

Acquisition conditions

Use Magic Manipulation to circulate magic into your body.

─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─

Notably, it improves physical function and reduces the consumption of magic.

If you improve your physical function, will you be able to breathe under these circumstances?

It's too cheap, but I don't have any other ideas.

We have to do it.

Attempts to circulate less magic in the body to achieve the acquisition conditions.

However, there is not enough magic around your body.

In that case... you can reduce the concentration of magic.

What you're doing is the same as a wildfire.

Imagine that the concentration of magic possessed is diminished when the magic is taken away by a wildfire.

By doing so, we succeeded in increasing the amount of magic relative to each other.

With Magic Manipulation, magic circulates into your body.

You have acquired the skill Magic Circle

Okay, now magic circulates all the time.

─ ─ Kaha

I was able to breathe a little.

But it's not enough.

"... hey. It's hard to do."

Why is that?

What's missing.

I was able to breathe a little bit.

But meditation is impossible.

I can only endure it.

There must still be something.

"Spread less oxygen into your body than you breathe."

I heard my father's voice.

At the same time, I understood the purpose of this training.

The answer is circulation.

How can you be aware of your whole body?

In order to achieve significant results with fewer, the guidelines need to be used well.

A test for learning the chair.

"... hah... fuu... fu"

I noticed that my breathing was ready.

My mind is surprisingly calm.

I fell into the feeling that I was now integrated with this space.

More concentration than I've ever experienced.

I feel my nerves have been sharpened.
