Episode 59 Mowing

"Is that right. What a waste. If you learned how to properly use Life Magic, you could be more useful."

Yui looked frustrated, but there was hope in her eyes.

"What kind of usage is that?"

Shou smiled wryly at Yui's interrogative question.

"Yui, if you want him to teach you, please be a little more polite."

Yui seemed excited.

"I'm sorry, I got a little excited ... Please tell me. I beg of you."

"Well, it's fine."

I wanted to raise the reputation of Life Wizards, so I would welcome the increase in the number of people who could use Life Magic. I taught her how to use multiple activations.

"So that's how multiple activations are used ... Haah, it's the same with 'Mowing', but I didn't understand Life Magic at all."

Yui seemed to be a little depressed.

Shou shrugged his shoulders and called out.

"Don't be depressed. Instead, you learned Attack Magic and are active."

"However, after the magic level of Attack Magic has risen to '4', it's not going up."

It seemed that Yui was worried because her magic level didn't go up.

"There's no reason to rush. Just slowly raise your magic level."

Susumu suddenly raised his voice.

"That's enough talk. It's a Satyr."

A sheep-man Satyr appeared. A monster with the lower body of a goat and the upper body of a human warrior raised its battle-axe and attacked.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

I knock the Satyr away with a QuintPush. Susumu, who had strengthened his body, jumped in and decapitated the Satyr.

Seeing my 'Push', Yui nodded in excitement.

"I can't believe that 'Push' was such a powerful magic."

It seemed that Yui's Life Magic was magic level 3.

Life Magic seemed to have been reconsidered in this team.

We searched around for BigSheep, and Yui used 'Mowing' to create a weak spot.

Then, when the seventh BigSheep was killed, a dungeon error occurred.(TN:Only 2 or 3 a month ... kill 7 in one day, it drops ... do people only kill a few a week or what.)

"Hooray."

Shou and the others smiled. Shou and the others laughed happily as they pulled out their shears and started shearing the sheep. BigSheep's wool is tough, so it takes a long time to shear it.

"Isn't it better to use 'Mowing' for this?"

When I say that, Shou and the others make a strange face.

"But that uses magical power, doesn't it?"

"'Mowing' doesn't require that much magical power."

I used 'Mowing' to shear the wool. After five uses, the BigSheep was completely naked. The wool was stuffed into a wool carrying bag.

I thought about telling them about the Magic Pouch, but I decided to keep quiet for a while, thinking that I would first learn how to do things like Shou and the others.

Shou and the others seemed to dismantle the naked BigSheep and packed the mutton in a bag and carried it. I also carried a bag of mutton on my back and we returned. It seemed that the reason why Shou and the others put me on the team was because they wanted someone to carry mutton.

We returned to the surface and contacted the Adventurer's Guild to sell the wool and mutton. Then we went to the Adventurer's Guild. The wool and mutton that had arrived before us had been inspected, and the amount of money divided into four was paid to each.

When Yui heard about 'Cone Arrow' from me, she said she would go to the Magic Agency branch to buy it, so the three of them went out together. I wanted to find out something in the reference room, so I stayed in the Adventurer's Guild.

After resting for a while, when I was about to go to the reference room, I heard Amane's voice.

"Ah, Grimm-sensei."

Amane rushed over happily. Alisa and the others along with a strange boy were behind her.

"Let me introduce you to Taichi-kun, who I talked about before."

Amane introduced me to the boy named Taichi. He seemed to be a talented boy who learned 'Push', 'Roll', and 'Cone Arrow' in a short period of time.

"Thank you very much, Grimm-sensei."

He seemed to be an obedient and good-natured boy. He seemed a little lacking in confidence, but that's probably because he's been feeling ashamed as a Wizard in his daily life.

"Why did you come to the Adventurer's Guild today?"

"We came here with the intention of using the guild's training ground."

"Is the academy's training ground no good?"

Alisa let out a sigh.

"Soon, the magic academies in the prefecture will gather and hold a competition. It was decided that the academy's training ground would be prioritized for Attack Wizards and Muscle Wizards."

"That's unfair. Even Life Wizards should have the right to use it."

Chika shrugged her shoulders.

"That's because the competition seems to be centered around Attack Wizards and Muscle Wizards."

"Does that mean that Life Wizards can't even participate?"

"No, you can participate in only one selected team battle."

There are four magic academies in the prefecture. It seemed to be a competition in which the four schools selected the best teams one by one and had them compete. However, the Jibik Magic Academy seemed to be planning to form a team centered around Kurotsuki, who had become a third-year student, and have them participate.(TN:Even after his MAJOR blunder before? School has zero brains.)

It seemed that Amane and Alisa couldn't participate in other competitions because they were restricted to specific types of magic to be used, only Attack Wizards, and only Muscle Wizards.

"Only Yukari can participate, somehow."

Yukari's face twisted when her name was mentioned.

"I don't want to be the only one participating. That being the case, isn't Chika also able to participate?"

Chika tilted her head.

"In my case, I use not only Muscle Magic, but also Life Magic, so I don't think I can be called a pure Muscle Wizard."

"I see, it can't be helped if you can't participate. By the way, what are the magic levels of the three of you?"

What I wanted to hear was the magic level of their Life Magic.

"All three of us have reached magic level 7. But, we won't be going up to '8' for a while."

Alisa gave me a report. Alisa and the others were hunting Orcs and Lizardmen on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the Suigetsu Dungeon on their days off, but it was getting harder for it to go up from Orcs and Lizardmen.
