Chapter 6: Testing my magic

- We could kill it- Desire

- Maybe inflict a little more pain- plague said sadistic.

- Yeah we should do that- Desire

- You’re scaring Samantha, but we should definitely torture it- War

Right in front of me lies a beast, in a near death state. It looked like a boar on steroids and two times the normal size of a normal boar. I just looked at it in pity and thought I should end it for this creature. I mean, it’s just wrong to leave it as it is after I beat it. It would be dishonourable.

- since when are you honourable?- Desire

Shut it Desire!

Anyway, I look at the boar and activate [Aura of Death]. The ground around me starts to turn black and the boar starts to scream a high-pitched voice. After 3 seconds the surroundings become quiet.

Then I hear a Ding!

[ 52 minutes and 16 seconds Ago]

I’m walking towards the forest. It’s been like an hour since I started and I slowly become bored. And the voices inside my head don’t really help. Especially since they are talking about my future husband. Like what the hell kind of subject is that!

While I walk I activate [Aura of Plague] and think of a disease that rots everything within a year. And if you’re asking yourself why a year, I want to learn how much Mp it costs. It seems to cost 1700 Mp/sec and I stop after 2 seconds. I begin to feel exhausted and look around. I do not see anything different from the grass, but I somehow know that it is infected.

After this experiment I activate status and start to look at my Mp and see that it takes 4 seconds to restore 25 Mp. So that means that 25:4= ummmm it’s …. Don’t say anything. I know it is

- 6,25 mp a second- Death said while sounding a bit annoyed.

Come on Death. I was just going to answer it. That’s so unfair.

- Sweetie, you had the wrong number in your head- War said calm.

“…”

“…”

Anyways that means that I just used 2 x 1700= ………. 3400 and then 3400:6,25=……..

“….”

“….”

“….”

I don’t know. Death how long would it take?

- Exactly 544 seconds- Death

That bastard didn’t even hesitate to answer.

Anyway this means it takes way too long to restore my Mp. This means that I have to

A. Start to learn how to fight close combat.

B. Get a higher Mp pool.

C. Get more Mp/s

D. Learn other Magic attacks that use less Mp.

I would probably choose A and D.

Why?

Because all my “Friends” somehow know close combat so they are able to help me and the reason why I choose for D is simple. Magic is awesome.

So there you have it.

I kept walking and after a 30 minute walk I suddenly hear a roar and see a boar rushing at me.

I don’t get a panic attack, because…… I prepared for this.

the boar rushes towards me and when it’s around 4 feet from me I jump towards the side. The boar on the otherhand rushes forward and has turn around to attack me again,

- Attack its legs- Desire

I do as he says and kick with all my strength at the boar’s leg. When my leg comes in contact with the boar’s I hear a loud crunch, but I do not feel any pain. I jump backwards and look again at boar. The boar looks normal if it wasn’t for the fact that his left leg is clearly broken.

The boar looks at me full of fury and begins to glow.

Ummmm, sorry? I say while trying to look as apolygic as I can.

The boar begins to rush at with speed that I couldn’t see. I close my eyes because I don’t want to see it hitting me, and then it hits me right in the chest.

I wait for the pain but nothing happens.

When I open my eyes I see the boar walking back a few steps and it looks confused.

- Kick it in his face- Desire

I begin to smile sadistic and begin to walk towards the now cowering boar.

[Back to the present]

And that is what happened. I know it was as anti-climactic as possible, but at least I’m not hurt.

- Samantha, are you alright, you’re not hurt right, next time I will take over so you don’t need to- War begins to talk and begins to spout some weird stuff so I begin to ignore her and look to the right side of my vision. A blue light seems to flash and the moment I concentrate on it a notification shows up.

You have killed a Red-Boar, You gain 42 experience

I look back and the boar and then again at the notification.

And then back at the boar.

And again at the notification.

The boar is goddamn BLACK!!

Hello guys, author here. I have a small problem and I need you guys to help me. What kind of fighter will Samantha become. I’m personally thinking about a mage that uses death/chaos magic, with a bit of control, but please make a comment or react towards the poll.
