Chapter 20 - 20) A solo mission

I turn back to see a giant-looking man. "We can't just send people to their deaths Brock," said the receptionist/Isabella. "A flame boar is an intermediate-rank tier 3 monster even a Junior magic knight of rank 3 won't try to fight with it alone but you want to fight it alone as a rank 5 junior magic knight? Keep dreaming ". Said Brock. Magic knights are ranked just like mana beasts. The wizard king at the top and then the magic knight captain. Below them are advanced, intermediate and junior magic knights. These three categories are split into 5 ranks. Rank 1 is the highest and rank 5 is the lowest.

"What I do is none of your concern miss just hurry up and give me the mission " I said. "you should listen to your seniors kid," said Brock. I ignored him and he got mad but he couldn't do anything to me inside the headquarters so he left in shame. Isabella just sighed and gave me the mission.

This mission tells me to hunt 5 flame 🔥 boars 🐗 . So I flew to the nearest village that has flame boars 🐗. I saw some boars with two stripes of flame on its body. I flew down and they started attacking me with their fireball skill. I used Diamond magic diamond thorns. Some thorns made of diamond pierced through the boars like they are skewers. I skewered 6 🐗. I don't see how this is hard for others to do it alone.

I heard a huge roar. It caused me to be paralyzed giving me the paralyzed status effect. I fell from the sky unable to use my magic. I wasn't flying that high but it still hurt. I looked at where the roar came from to see a giant-looking 🐗 . It is a flame boar king An advanced rank tier 5 monster. It had multiple skills I didn't know what its skills are other than the roar and fireball. It didn't give me any time to think and charged at me.

I used winds rush to dodge the attack and used water magic water dragon's roar. It went near the boar king but the water melted. The boar king has another skill that affects its environment. The area around it was hotter than other areas it's using flame aura. It emits a flame aura so unless I kill it or it stops using it normal attacks like water magic may melt. I tried again with diamond thorns but they also melted before doing anything.

Suddenly I had an idea. I didn't have time to test this but I tried combining water magic with water magic using synthesis magic and I unlocked Sea magic. I used sea magic tsunami 🌊 and defeated the 🐗 king. Mana beasts rarely have cores inside their body. I searched if any beast had mana cores using search magic and found out that the advanced flame boar king has a core inside it. Just the core of advanced beasts is around 6 months' salary of an average magic knight.

I took everything back to the headquarters using spatial magic inventory. When I returned empty-handed Brock asked, "Did you run away without defeating a single boar 🐗 how pathetic. This is why you listen to your seniors. " I ignored him again and went to the receptionist. He got mad again and when Isabella asked if she should cancel the mission I said " I finished the mission and I also got 1 flame boar extra". Brock laughed and asked, "Then where are they? Did you forget them at your house".

I used my inventory and took out 6 flame boars 🐗 and everyone was shocked. Brock said, "There is no way you could have defeated it so did you cheat and asked someone else to defeat it? "I ignored him again and said I also defeated an advanced rank flame boar king. " "Stop dreaming there is no way a newbie can defeat a flame boar king if you could defeat it I will dance around for 3 hours," said Brock. I said deal and took out the flame boar king. Everyone was shocked. I asked Brock "are you going to dance now or are you going to go back on your word like a coward. Now he got really mad and challenged me to a duel.
