I woke up to an uneventful morning.
Let's just ignore Saya if she comes. Yeah, let's do that.
[Acquired skill: Ignore Level 1.]
[Integrated into Ignore Level 2.]
Shut up, notifications.
[Acquired skills: Silence Level 1, Soundproof Barrier Level 1.]
[Integrated into Silence Level 3, Soundproof Barrier Level 3.]
…Let's ignore them.
[Acquired skill: Ignore Level 1.]
I can't do it. They're too persistent to ignore.
"Uh... I guess I'll get up."
I went downstairs to the living room.
Now that I think about it, I didn't get any skills the last time I told the notifications to shut up. Why am I getting skills now?
[Answer: This is because the skill 'ks-2
^@Ⅱ' evolved and enough time has passed.]
That's a helpful notification, but the loud noise is unbearable. If only it wasn't so loud...
[Supplement: Due to the demerit effect of the skill 'ap29:@y8Ⅱ', the skills 'Noise Resistance', 'Strong Noise Resistance', 'Noise Immunity', and 'Natural Influence Immunity' cannot be acquired.]
I knew that. Usually, I would gain resistance skills when the pain reached a certain level, but not for noise. Sorry, but that was unnecessary information.
"Good morning, Naru-kun! Get dressed, let's go!"
"I haven't had breakfast yet..."
"Come on, get dressed!"
"I haven't had breakfast yet..."
[Activated skill: Simultaneous Deployment Level 1.]
[Activated skills: Undressing Level MAX, Dressing Level MAX.]
Hey! Don't do that!
You're noisy and only do things I don't want.
You're not skills, you're curses! Seriously, give me a break.
[Acquired skill: Curse Resistance Level 1.]
…I'm done...
"Oh, you're dressed! Let's go!"
"By the way, what training are we doing today?"
"Hmm? Practical training."
"What do you mean by practical training?"
"Practical training, of course."
I mean, what's the content?
Even if I ask, she'll probably just say, "I said it's practical training," again...
[Speculation: It is likely that the practical training involves magic and combat training.]
…She was eager to use magic yesterday...
But where are we going to train? We'll definitely get caught.
Nowadays, every place is monitored by satellites.
[Acquired skills: Optical Camouflage Level 1, Stealth Level 1, Concealment Level 1, Presence Blocking Level 1, Magic Concealment, Concealment Level 1.]
Even so, magic can still be seen.
…In that case, I should have absolutely refused this training...
"Let's go!"
"Okay, fine."
Huh? Wait, it's hot here. Where are we?
"Um, Saya... Where are we?"
"The Sahara Desert! No people here, right?"
Well, yeah...
But it's too simplistic. Satellites might spot us.
Why is Saya so cool? She's faintly covered in a cool aura.
…That's unfair.
As thoughtless as ever, she's still Saya.
[Acquired skill: Cold Aura Level 1.]
…Thanks, but enough already.
"Didn't you think about being spotted by satellites?"
"It's fine! We'll manage somehow!"
No, we won't.
I'm done with her. She's too troublesome to deal with.
"Let's go! 'Flame Butterfly Flare'!"
Huh? Seriously? That butterfly again.
The butterfly created by Saya's hand spewed sparks at me, circling around as if to surround me, then flew straight at me.
Is she trying to kill me?
How do I use my skills at will...
[Answer: You can use a skill by clearly intending to use it and saying its name.]
Got it. You could have told me sooner!
"'Magic Barrier'!"
Oh no. I forgot about the ones coming from behind.
I'm going to get hit...
"Ouch! Hey, Saya! Are you trying to kill me?!"
[Acquired skills: Fire Resistance Level 1, Burn Resistance Level 1, Flame Resistance Level 1.]
[Integrated into Fire Resistance Level 2.]
"I'm not done yet! 'Wind Cutter'!"
[Uh, 'Evasion'!]
What am I supposed to do with magic?
I don't know how to use it.
At this rate, I'm doomed.
[Understood. Transferring basic information about magic and incantations to your brain.]
Ouch, ouch! My head!
Panting... This is ridiculous.
But now I roughly understand. Please be more gentle...
"Oh air, block the attack before me! 'Wind Wall'!"
[Title 'Sigh Emitter' effect activated.]
[Counting the number of sighs... 574.]
[Calculating power... multiplier, 59.4 times.]
[Title 'Sigh Emitter' effect activated.]
A huge, semi-transparent wall appeared in front of me.
…I should seal wind magic from now on.
[Acquired skill: Sealing Level 1.]
"Naru-kun! That's cheating!"
"You're the last person who should be complaining when you attack me without warning!"
"I won't forgive cheating!"
As she said that, a massive amount of magic power began to gather around Saya.
Numerous magic circles appeared.
…She's definitely trying to kill me!
