Chapter 157- A sudden development after another two and a half months
“Kill all the remaining monsters today and we’re done.”
“Copy that!”
It’s been two and a half months since the Spiritual Descent training began in earnest. In other words, more than four months have passed since the start of the training.
“That’s it!”
I swung my sword one last time and delivered a lightning slash to put an end to it. Since half a month ago, I was allowed to descend spirits while defeating monsters. Thanks to that, the number of monsters I can defeat in a day has increased. But because of this, I had to move several times every time I lost a monster in a day.
And today, I’m at level 98. Two more levels to go and I can evolve. By the way, I’m still trying to figure out the problem of the magic power leak in the spirit descent, but I think I’m almost there.
“Let’s do it again today.”
“Yes!”
And before we left, I had a mock battle with Judy. We’ve been doing this every time since our first mock battle and these days, I’ve started using the three-piece set of Spirit Descent, Double Enchantment and Raiden Armor.
“Haa…haa…”
“That’s it for today. We’ll continue tomorrow.”
“Okay…”
As usual, I lost to Judy without being able to land a single blow. However, there is progress. I’ve been using the set of three items, including spirit descent and Judy has started to use spirit descent as well. And since I started using it to defeat monsters, I’ve been practicing it twice a week, on Water Day and Light Day. So four days a week are spent defeating monsters. Thanks to this, my level is rising quickly these days.
“Okay, let’s go home.”
“Yes…”
And today, as usual, I followed Judy as she ran home.
“What’s wrong?”
She must have wondered why I had suddenly stopped, because she called out to me. I had never stopped like this before. Even when I stumbled over a tree root, I never stopped.
“… Who are you?”
“………”
I’m always trying to sense magic power according to Emily’s instructions. As the magic sense skills increase, you can sense the amount of power an opponent has. So I found out that Judy’s magic power suddenly changed. No, it’s not that her magic level has changed, it’s more that I don’t know how much magic she has anymore and Judy’s running style also changed a little. I’ve been following her back for hundreds of times now and I immediately notice that her running style has changed. She looks like Judy, but she’s not Judy.
“I got caught. I didn’t expect you to have grown so much not only in level but also in skill. This is a happy miscalculation.”
As she said this, the surface of her body began to melt away. Then, what was supposed to be her true form came into view.
“Huh?”
“It’s been a while.”
And it was the bokuko who appeared. I don’t understand what this means.
“I don’t want to fight with you right now, so don’t be so cautious. Even I get hurt.”
“………”
Even after hearing that, I’m still wary. Right now? That means that she’ll fight me one day.
“I’ll introduce myself again.”
When she said that, she started to introduce herself with a smile and cute laugh.
“I’m Im, the head of the demon tribe.”
“Huh…”
Then, as if to show proof, she dissolved both her hands into liquid.
“I came here today to ask you for a favor.”
“…A favor?”
“Yes! For today, I’m begging you.”
What would happen if she didn’t ask for a favor today? I don’t even want to think about it…
“Can I tell you what the favor is?”
“If possible, I’d like you to leave without telling me.”
“Then I’ll tell you.”
I realize now that my body is shaking. That’s because I instinctively know that this bokuko is stronger than that dragon demon.
“I want you to become a demon…”
“……… you decided that by force.”
She wants to combine me and a demon to make a chimera? I can’t become a demon unless she does that.
“What are you talking about? You have useful extra skills.”
“What? What the……”
“Don’t play dumb with me, okay?”
“………”
How did she know? That’s all I could think about.
“So if you get the title limited to demons, you can surely evolve into a demon right?”
“Wha ……”
I suddenly thought the proposal might be possible…
