Episode 85 Black stick's transformation

"And what was the last thing, the ring? No way, it wasn't a cursed right, right."

There were many rings with various effects. Among them, the rings that were said to be cursed were the 'Anesthesia Ring', 'Diarrhea Ring', 'Vision Ring', 'Slowness Ring', and 'Pain Augmentation Ring'.

Once you put those rings on, you couldn't remove them unless you used the 'Unlock' Bestowal Magic.

"No way, it was a 'Diagnosis Ring'. I put it up for auction."

"A 'Diagnosis Ring', I'm sure it will exceed 100 million ... Have you hired a tax accountant?"

"Do I need one?"

"Of course. Can you fill out a blue-paper income-tax return by yourself?"

Adventurers were also given preferential tax treatment, and if their income was below a certain level, all they had to do was submit a document and pay the tax.

Last year I finished with just one document, but my income was likely to increase dozens of times, so I needed a tax accountant.

Karina turned her gaze to Alisa and the others.

"Don't you guys need a tax accountant too?"

Amane didn't seem to think about it at all, and panicked.

"Ehh, tax accountant. Do we need one, too?"

Alisa let out a sigh.

"We went hunting OrcKnights with Grimm-sensei, so we made quite a bit of money. If our income continues to increase, it might exceed the limit of just one document."

Let's make a contract with a tax accountant. I wonder if I should ask about Alisa and the others at that time. When I said that, Alisa and the others thanked me.

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

　　　◆◆◇◇◆◆◇◇◆◆

A few days after that, I went to the Adventurer's Guild training ground to try out 'Remote Plate'. The reason why I was late to test the magic was because i was looking for a tax accountant and made a contract, and I was teaching Alisa and the others how to use 'High Blade'.

I activated 'Remote Plate'. An 80 cm square faintly glowing red plate made of D-Particles appeared in the air. The magic's feature was that I could move the red D-Particle Plate just by thinking about it. There was a feeling that there was a line between me and the D-Particle Plate.

The though-controlling D-Particle Plate was not a new idea. At the moment when 'Push' was also activated, before the D-Particle Plate was formed, I chose the direction to shoot it first with thought control.

The unprecedented function of 'Remote Plate' was to maintain the D-Particle Plate for a long period of time, and to freely manipulate the D-Particle Plate even after it was formed. It was probably because there was a line that connected us.

'Auto Shield' may also be thought to be thought controlled after forming the D-Particle Shield, but since the D-Particle Shield automatically defended against attacks, it wasn't. This was high level magic.

In my mind, I willed for the D-Particle Plate to move. The vaguely shining red D-Particle Plate circled around me and moved up, down, left and right. Suddenly, I wondered how strong the D-Particle Plate was, so I moved the D-Particle Plate close to the ground, leveled it to the ground, and climbed on it.

The shining red D-Particle Plate didn't break even when I put my weight on it and it was floating in the air. In that state, I tried to move the D-Particle Plate. The D-Particle Plate shook, but I was left behind and thrown to the ground.

"Oww."

It didn't seem like something I could ride. The shock from the fall cut the line connecting me to the D-Particle Plate, and the D-Particle Plate also disappeared.(TN:If he could make 2, he could alternate and air walk.)

I'm not sure if this magic can be used in a dungeon. However, I thought that the technique of connecting and manipulating D-Particle formations could be used when creating new magic. I think it would be a big harvest.

I sat down on a bench in the training ground and took out the Staff.

"Well, what shape should I make."

The fighting style of a Life Wizard was different from that of a Muscle Wizard. It was almost impossible to kill the enemy directly with a weapon. It activates 'Blade' and 'High Blade' according to the movement of the weapon in hand, so it didn't matter if it were a wooden sword.

However, if you use magic on FrenzyMice or Blood-SuckingBats, you would run out of magic power. So, I needed a weapon for hunting small-fries.

I couldn't come up with any good ideas. For the time being, I should try to see if I could really change the shape.

I thought about making the Black Thoughts Staff into a rapier, and concentrated my thoughts on the Black Thoughts Staff. Fortunately, thanks to the use of 'Sensing Zone', my ability to detect D-Particles had increased dramatically.

Using that sensing ability, I tried to interfere with the D-Particles of the Black Thoughts Staff. Then, an interference force spread inside the black staff, and the D-Particles began to move.

The rod-shaped black staff began to change little by little. The tip began to elongate like the tip of a rapier, and the black D-Particles, excluding the handle, became a long, 120 cm long blade.

I adjusted it little by little, and the moment I thought it was complete, a voice echoed in my head.

[ Do you want to remember this shape? ]

I was a little surprised. I had heard about talking Magic Equipment. It didn't seem to be intelligent, it seemed to be a magical response system.

I didn't understand, but I agreed. At that moment, a selection switch popped up in my head. It seemed that it was possible to switch between the original shape of the black staff and the shape of a rapier.

I changed the selection switch to the black staff. Then, in an instant, the sword-like shape returned to its original black staff.

"Hee, does it change in an instant."

When I selected the rapier with the selection switch, it instantly turned into a black rapier.

I tried it several times, but it didn't seem to use much magic power. A small idea came to my mind and I moved to where the wooden target was.

Then, with the black staff pointed at the target, I changed the selection switch to the black rapier. In an instant, the black staff turned into a slender black rapier, and its tip pierced the target board.

"This is, isn't it really the best weapon."

I tried it several times and turned the target board into tatters.
