Sometime later, Sumay was finished skinning the wolves and Yumiko built something, a small little wooden hut without a door or windows just the opening for them. When casting her spell, the structure came up from the ground, she built it over by the water beside the fire.
Oh… It's trash… I mean the spell is pretty weak right now and I didn't use ELA but it works, Yumiko thought as she looked at her work with her hands on her hips. Never thought the day would come when I was bad at something… Is this a learning experience?
"You know creation magic?" Sumay asked her master, after walking over to where Yumiko was, with the wolfskins.
"Yes, is that bad?" Yumiko asked, turning her hand to look at Sumay, putting her hands down.
"No… Only people who are blessed by the gods know how to use creation magic/spells." Sumay said while looking at the hut.
"Really…" She said with an awkward smile and looked to the side. Gods? It makes sense there would be others. There's the game god, so there must be gods for other things too. And I am amazing, of course, I would be favoured by them.
Yumiko used the fur from the wolves to make two beds, well more like a sheet and a pillow on the floor of the hut. Suamy and Yumiko look at the 'beds' inside the hut.
"Why did you make two, master? I don't need to sleep" Sumay said, then turned to her master.
"Yeah just in case you want to lie down," Yumiko said with a smile.
After, she went to sleep and Sumay stayed up on the lookout. The next day, Yumiko went to the river to wash her face and noticed that she looked different.
What the-! I have red hair and my eyes are… purple! So cool, is that a crown? It is. This is my oc from NK! Hm… I still look amazing, actually, did I get prettier? Never thought it was possible. I mean I'm going to miss the blond but this is so much better, Yumiko thought and right she was, she still looked good- better even.
They continued to the village and on the way there as they went through the forest, the monsters also continued. A group of goblins, some slimes and a troll that they thought was just a big rock, it even had moss on it and everything.
Sumay handled the goblins and slimes but Yumiko wanted to fight the troll. They were walking by it when it started to move, Yumiko jumped back slightly from being startled.
Soo… cool! A real troll! Too bad I have to kill it… I have to fight strong opponents, so I can level up! Yumiko thought with excitement in her eyes as she looked up at the troll after it slowly got up from the ground.
Let's do this! Summon Scarlet twin blades. Wait, are my blades strong enough for this? Guess we'll just have to see and find out.
Yumiko lunged at the troll with a big smile on her face but not her cute heart-warming smile, no, this was a twisted smile.
She then jumped up to be face-to-face with it and swung down her blade to its chest, intending to stab it but her blade just bounced off with not even a scratch. She tried to hold on but the troll swung at her.
Well… shit, Yumiko thought as she looked at the troll's fist coming from her left.
It hit her, its fist was as big as her whole body. When it hit, she flew but not too far, Sumay put down her sword and caught her in mid-air. Then landed on the ground and kneeled so Yumiko could sit, a good distance away from the troll.
While holding Yumiko with her right hand supporting her back and her left on her belly as she looked down at Yumiko, "Master, would you like me to handle this troll?" she said with a blank face but a hint of disgust in her voice at the troll, for hurting her master.
Yumiko's nose was bleeding and she was a little injured but she was fine, more than fine- she was smiling again and started laughing.
"No," she said after she stopped laughing and looking at the troll.
It turned and took a step towards them but it was moving slowly.
"... Master?" Sumay asked, looking at Yumiko smiling, happily.
Activate unique skill ELA, let's try this again. Obviously, physical attacks don't work, I suspected as much but you never know… fire, maybe?-
The troll picked up speed and started to run to them. It tried to attack again but Sumay cast a barrier spell.
"O heavens above protect me and my allies from evil, holy barrier," she said with her right hand out to the troll and still holding Yumiko in her other hand.
Holy Barrier II:
This spell creates a dome that protects its user and anyone in their immediate surrounding from any G to D-level monster
I can see others' spells and skills too?- That's not important right now. "Sumay, how does one acquire fire magic?" Yumiko stopped smiling and looked up at Sumay.
"...? You have to know how to use magic, then have an aptitude for fire magic and learn a spell" Sumay said, putting her hand down.
"Do you know any fire spells?"
"I know a few but for this… Hellfire would be more than powerful enough for a troll. Hellfire is a C-level spell at its first state" she said.
The troll continued to hit the barrier repeatedly, while they talked.
Hellfire:
This intermediate spell summons flames anywhere the user likes, that are as hot as a demon's fire but can be hotter than a demon's when evolved
I know the spell, this ELA skill is way too overpowered and I am loving it! All I have to do is just think about learning a spell or skill, so cool!- But focus, Yumiko.
"Sumay, take down the barrier," she said looking at the troll through the barrier.
"Yes, master," Sumay said then the golden, transparent barrier fell.
"Dark flames whose smoke is a burning vermilion, hellfire!" Yumiko said as the troll tried to hit them again once it saw the barrier was down.
A red summoning circle appeared under the troll, then a beautiful ruby-red fire came from the ground beneath the troll's feet. The biggest smile arose from Yumiko's face, once she saw the fire burning the troll alive, having the time of her life.
"Master… How did you?" Sumay asked, looking at the troll's dead burned body.
One shot, let's go, I'm a badass! I mean it was bound to happen with how amazing I am!
"Master?"
"Huh?" Yumiko looked up at Sumay with that same smile, "Oh, that?"
"Yes, master. How did you learn the spell?"
"Oh, you know," Yumiko said, then got up and looked at Sumay, her eyes following her as she moved.
"I'm blessed by the gods or one god… And creation magic isn't the only thing they blessed me with"
"Okay, master," Sumay said, then picked up her sword and also got up and went to the troll's ashes, "Master, I think you went too far," she said looking at its ashes.
"Wait, you're not surprised?" Yumiko asked, after turning to look at her.
"No, I assumed as much. You have a contract with a level 82 spirit and it takes skill to summon a powerful spirit" Sumay said, turning to her master.
She's at level 82, so cool! No wonder she's so overpowered! Yumiko thought. "What did you mean by 'I want too far?'" Yumiko walked to where Sumay was, looking at what was left of the troll.
"The troll's gem is gone, master. They go for a lot too"
"Yeah, sorry about that, I was having so much fun I forgot about it. Ha ha- huh?"
Yumiko felt faint and started to fall. Sumay quickly rushed to her master's side, held her, and slowly kneeled down.
"Are you alright master?"
"Yeah, I just feel a bit dizzy, is all" Yumiko said as she looked into Sumay's beautiful scarlet eyes while Sumay held her. Whoa… huh-
"Did you use too much mana or stamina points?"
"Mana points?"
"Yes, master"
"Like video game mana points or MP?" She then looked down with her hand on her chin.
"Video game, master?"
"Nothing… how do I know how many points I have left?"
"When you say 'Attribute' you can see your stats," said Sumay.
She then lifted Yumiko so she could stand on her own. She stood with her hands on her knees and her back band a little.
"Attribute..?"
A black 2D square appeared in front of Yumiko, it had 'Stats' in gold at the top in bold and in smaller letters, there were some worlds.
Stats
Titles: None Level: 25
Mana: 4/65 Wisdom: 10 points
Heath: 31/50 Stamina: 29/89
That troll did some damage and my mana is low… really low. Hellfire is a powerful spell, it took all my mana to cast it. Yeah, maybe I should have let Sammy do it?... But it was so much fun! And I'm at level 25 already, I wasn't even trying, that is just how great I am.
"Master?" Sumay asked, looking at Yumiko, wondering how she was doing.
"Yeah, I used too much mana and my stamina is low but I'll be fine," Yumiko said.
With that same heart-warming smile, she stood up straight, like she hadn't just killed something with the biggest smile, as if nothing had happened.
"We can leave. There's nothing left of the troll but we have more than enough to get you a comfortable room at an inn, master"
That's fine, 'cause as fun as this was, I don't have the energy to do anything else. Even greatness never rests, every once in a while.
