Leveling Up with Skills Chapter 44

_ Volume 2, Chapter 19

44. 7th level the sword of the ruined world (1)

“I think we can just use magic to go down.”

The Lizardman Fighter is an enemy that can only be met by going down to at least the 70th floor in Easy Mode. I caught such a monster only with magic. The possibilities were plentiful.

[Magic is a completed power. There are people who actually went down to the depths. The guy I know also went down to the 70th floor so it’s not impossible.]

Acquired the same level of skill as swordsmanship. Considering the uniqueness of magic he would be able to overcome many of the difficulties he suffered.

And by winning against the boss I got various rewards.

[You defeated the enemy using only magic. Acquired the special always-on skill [Magic Chanting].]

Perhaps because he used magic properly he was able to obtain magic-related skills.

[Special always-on skill: Magic Spirit

window]

[Proficiency: 1%]

[The speed of chanting magic decreases. It seems that the difference is not noticeable yet.]

Magic has a very fine casting time. Perhaps the higher the level of magic the longer it takes. It was a good effect to have at least one.

[You have won a complete victory. Acquired the special always-on skill [Complete Victory].]

“Is it because I won without even touching it?

get something.”

outright victory. The effect was simple.

[Special Always Activated Skill: Complete Victory]

[Proficiency: 1%]

[Inflicts a compulsory coercion test against enemies with an overwhelming gap.]

Intimidation is a good roll that slows the target’s action speed and thinking. force it out When the skill level rises it is good to walk on enemies of the same level

was a skill.

There are two skills like this.

And the level rose to catch the boss.

[Your level has risen.]

[They are in the best condition.]

[As a reward for leveling up HP has increased by 40.]

[As a reward for leveling up your strength has increased by 4 permanently. Agility has permanently increased by 5.]

[Your spirit level has been activated. Strength is permanently increased by 3. Agility

This permanently increases by 3.]

The amount of increase in spirit level is not very high. The gap between Tusa and now Taesan was too great.

Of course there are no random victories. It was so easy to catch it but it was a lack of conscience to hope that far.

“I’m still sorry.”

Taesan licked his lips and checked the item the boss had dropped.

[The fighter’s necklace]

[Strength + 3]

[Agility +1]

[The necklace worn by the fighter for a long time.]

“Not bad.”

Its stats are pretty high for a necklace so if it were normal I would happily wear it. But I really liked the Goblin Lord’s necklace.

I’ll have to offer this as a tribute.

It’s not a bad item so it’s going to be quite a price.

[You caught the boss on the 6th floor.

Basic Reward [I got the spell tax of the imprint.]

[You have identified the hidden element of the 6th floor. I got the reward [uh??].]

I cherish the order book for the imprint.

It can be applied to all equipment but the effect is very small if it is not the main equipment. Even if you use it on a necklace it can only make a difference of 1 or 2 stats.

It would be a waste to apply it to a dazzling sword and Taesan’s armor was not very good. I was thinking of using it later.

and a secret reward.

[You used ???.]

[You have obtained the Staff of Calmness.]

cane?

This is the second staff I got after catching the chieftain.

[Cold Staff]

[Magic + 6]

[Mana consumed when using magic – 1]

[He said that calmness is the basis of a wizard. A wand that can only be used by those who have followed the basics.]

“You say the mana consumption is reduced?”

The mana consumption of the fireball is 3 so it becomes 2 and it is reduced by 33% with a simple calculation.

As most of the skills he had learned now had a single-digit mana consumption even such a small figure was very large.

Good.

The wand was originally meant to be offered as a tribute but when this happens the story changes.

“Status window.”

[Kang Tae-san]

[Level: 18]

[Shield: 39/39]

[Health: 725/725]

[Mana: 104/104]

[Strength: 161]

[Intelligence: 79]

[Agility: 122]

[Attack Power + 24]

[Defense + 21]

[Subject is in excellent condition.]

It was a sorry stat compared to him now.

More than anything else the rise in mana stood out.

Designate the proof of victory as mana and it goes up every time you kill an enemy.

It was the right choice since learning magic would increase the consumption of mana.

Taesan returned to the 6th level again.

First I had to meet Lilith and talk about magic.

On the way back to the secret room Lilith showed up first.

Hurray! hi!

“Can I come out?”

“Because of transparency. Besides did you catch them all? It’s safe for now.”

She took the lead with a happy face.

“Follow me! I’ll show you the safe zone!”

Following her to the edge of the floor there was a very small door.

“This inside is a safe zone! Monsters can’t come in!”

The size of the interior was large enough for one person to stay. Taesan looked around the empty room.

“There used to be a place like this.”

“It’s not a well-known place is it?”

Only after clearing it will appear very small on the edge of the floor. Besides there is nothing inside. It was at such a level that even those who found it passed by thinking it was the room I hadn’t been able to find.

However Lilith was happily banging the bar as if she was satisfied with these trivial things.

shut down

ruler. Does that mean you have something to offer? Show me!”

Seeing her eyes filled with anticipation Taesan took out an inventory.

Patter.

Numerous pieces of equipment obtained so far fall. It’s okay but things that Taesan can’t put on. Lilith shuts up at the wave of more than ten pieces of equipment.

“With this much you can learn one thing.”

huh… …

Lilith with a sullen face offered each piece of equipment as a tribute. After about 10 minutes and the last piece of equipment being offered Taesan chose the magic.

“With a cold arrow.”

[You got the Frost Arrow.]

[Basic Magic: Ice Arrow]

[Mana consumed: 3]

[Proficiency: 1%]

[Fires a cold arrow. Enemies without immunity receive greater damage. Inflicts a status abnormality [Frostbite] on the target

try.]

The basic explanation was like a fireball. The other thing is that the cold arrow has certain physical power. It can be useful in situations where you cannot shoot a bow.

“Is this even possible?”

huh? what?

Hearing Taesan’s murmur Lilith tilted her head. Realizing the meaning of the words the ghost possessed an empty laugh.

[Looks like I’m thinking right there. Judgmentally it is possible.]

yes? a verdict? What are you talking about?”

The ghost said playfully to Lilith who kept asking.

[How much did you learn beginner magic?]

“You know what I learned. Nothing but invisibility.”

Lilith groaned. Chapter of cover. foundation detection. fireball. All of the cold arrows were basic magic.

“You know. There is a huge difference in the level of magic. You can’t learn beginner magic unless you get out of the 10th floor. Learning to be invisible is a real miracle

would you?”

“Is the difference that big?”

of course! Basic magic is imitating magic. It can be put in plenty of sticks. But is beginner magic itself magic that cannot be contained in anything else?”

she raved.

“Compared to the intermediate or advanced level it lacks in status but it is still magic enough. That’s what I came here for but I’m struggling. If I hadn’t learned to become invisible I would have gone crazy.”

She moaned like a raging old man.

The ghost held back a laugh and opened his mouth.

[You know how hot it is right?]

“A higher version of the fireball? Of course I know. It’s a fire attribute but it’s a magic that’s hard to counter because it also has physical power right?”

[that. Are you learning this guy?]

yes?

Lilith’s eyes widened. She then smiled and patted her hand.

no way. Even jokes.”

[Do I look like someone who would joke about something like this?]

“You have to make sense. I admit that I am strong. But you’re from a world without magic. How do you learn when there is no other way than to be delivered by someone?”

[Then check it yourself. Are you fine’?]

“I don’t care.”

••••••really?

Lilith said with a thought-provoking look

came Taesan opened the system window.

[Beginner Magic: Burning Ball]

[Mana Consumption: 6]

[Proficiency: 1%]

[Fireballs of appropriate size are fired. Enemies without immunity receive greater damage. Attempts to determine the status abnormality [Burn] on the target. Has little physical force.]

Lilith’s pupils widened.

“… … what. this.

[how is it? Is it real?]

said the ghost proudly. She seemed to be bragging that her child was this amazing.

And Lilith didn’t care about that.

what. this. burning ball. what. how to do this… …

She stammers like someone who witnessed the impossible.

“Replace this… …

let me know?

huh?

she paused. After thinking about dozens of things in her brief moment she opened her mouth. Her face was a mixture of desire and conscience as a wizard.

“If you tell me… … It would be nice… … What can I do… …

“It is not difficult. I’ll just let you know.”

It is highly likely that he will have a long-term relationship with Lilith. There’s nothing wrong with being kind. Lilith’s face is thrilled.

“Are you an angel? or god

Are you a lion? you teach me this? You are my teacher!”

“But knowing it won’t help much.”

“No help! That’s one way!”

“Okay.”

It’s really of no use to her. Taesan started to explain.

As the story progressed Lilith’s face became grotesquely distorted.

After the explanation she was possessed with a blank laugh.

What is it?

[okay. Because that reaction is normal.]

“Can’t you learn?”

“Do you think a wizard will do physical training? Why use a fireball if you can follow the fireball? Just use another spell.”

Lilith groaned.

“… … It’s not that bad though. There is such a difference in judgment. I didn’t know either. you can try something thank you.

She looked at Mount Tai with admiring eyes.

see.

“How did you find this difference? Are you sure you are an adventurer favored by God?”

“I’ve been through this and that. And I have a question for you. What exactly is the difference between each level of magic?”

“Why is that all of a sudden? what did you get?”

Taesan showed the Staff of Calmness. After confirming this Lilith let out an exclamation.

“Until magic reduces mana consumption by 6. Equipment you can’t find on the 10th floor

yes.

“How much difference does magic make?”

“Simple. You can think of magic + as a percentage.”

“Is 6 equals 6%?”

that’s right. Percentage is all about magic here. Duration roll bonus power etc… … Everything except for mana consumption can be considered stronger.”

“Then it’s fine.”

“It’s not okay it’s good right?”

If it’s a bonus for anything that isn’t just power it’s not just 6%. Depending on the conditions this could be used as a substitute for a weapon.

I knew everything I wanted to know.

Taesan turned around. Lilith waved her hand briskly.

“See you on the 7th floor!”

I headed for the stairs leading down Mount Tai.

Finally the first floor. It wasn’t long before we reached the 10th floor.

[The 7th floor quest begins.]

[Defeat the boss on the 7th floor and pass.]

[Reward: Dirty Earring.]

[Secret reward: ???]

Upon arriving at the entrance as always a dwarf was waiting.

“Are you here?”

“Do you have the powder of blessing?”

“No?”

Even if you only have two or three you get something

I can but I can’t find it It also didn’t seem to be easy to find.

“Then I will sell you some.”

Taesan took out the skins and teeth of the Lizardman and Big Rat. Thinking of blacksmiths leather is necessary but this much was not needed.

“There are too many… … This would be enough for two thousand gold. What are you going to buy?”

no.

“Are you just going again? How much money are you trying to raise?”

“Plenty.”

I collected about 5000 gold. But it’s still not enough.

You will be able to use it properly only when you pass the 10th floor.

“See you later.”

“I’m bored.”

Leaving behind the words of boredom Tae-san walked.

[The 7th floor is here.]

As soon as I left the store the ghost said. Taesan laughed at the obvious change in attitude.

“Do you hate it that much?”

[I told you. It’s only for its own benefit. but… … you won’t have to worry The reason I hate that is because of my personal experience. It has nothing to do with you.]

Unlike when he talked about dwarves before his emotions were restrained. The ghost erased the sunken energy.

[Anyway it’s on the 7th floor. Do you remember the promise?]

“He said he would teach you swordsmanship when you come here.”

At first he refused to teach

After Dunn’s ghost caught the rod he said he would tell you when he reached the 7th floor. He said there would be no problems with his stats from then on.

Now the time has come.

[What I will teach you is the swordsmanship of our empire.]

The ghost is the prince of the empire perish

said he came here to save the world.

[The Carvert Empire was a country that worshiped strength. The weak had no value and most things were allowed if they were strong. It is very common for the strong to persecute the weak and it has been called right. It was no different even if it was the imperial family. I had six brothers.]

Those who have the blood of the imperial family fight each other over the right of succession.

In the case of Carvert Kingdom it was not a battle of politics.

[I won against my brothers. I put a knife through their neck and won the right of succession.]

“It is a harsh world.”

[Everyone said so. Little Lilith did too. How do you live in a place like that? They say it’s a savage world. But it’s my only world for me.]

said the Ghost gloomily.

[I want to go back but I can’t go back. The chance to save it also failed. At least leaving evidence of my world is the least amount of atonement.]

After controlling his emotions for a moment the ghost continued to speak calmly.

[As much as it is a swordsmanship in that world its characteristics are also strong. First of all there is no defense.]
