10 - Episode 9 The Duchy of Six

Name:Infinite Gacha Author:Meikyou Shisui
Great bushwolves and bushwolves attacked us, but we fought them off safely.

With the help of Erio and his friends, adventurers of the race (human), they were able to recover the magic stone of the defeated monsters.

He then made an offer to us.

It's getting dark soon, so we'll camp here. It is dangerous to move after dark, so as a thank you for saving us from bush snakes, great bush wolves, and bush wolves, please stay the night with us in a crude tent with campfire food.

Aside from the bush snakes, the other two we did on our own.

No, I have you to thank for this morning, plus ......

The older brother steals a sideways glance at his younger sister, whose eyes sparkle.

My sister would like to talk to you about witchcraft,......," he said.

'Ha ha ha ...... then I'll take your word for it.'

A brother is vulnerable to his sister's request.

Having a younger sister as well, I could understand it well.

So, I agreed to it without hesitation.

We set up their tent and introduced ourselves to each other while helping them set up a simple stove with fallen rocks.

The leader of the group was the red-haired Erio, and his sister, the magician Miya.

They were Gimla, a good-natured childhood friend from the same hometown, and Wardy, the tallest of the group.

It was a somewhat special party of one sorcerer and three warriors with swords on their shields.

When I asked them why all the boys were warriors with swords on their shields, they replied, "We are not warriors with swords on our shields, but warriors with shields.

Because it's cool to be a knight or something! He replied.

Gold laughed at this and said, "Oh, oh, I see.

I think you should think a little more about the roles and composition of your party members. ...... I'm not allowed to interfere with other people's parties, so I'm not going to listen to them.

Mya brings out the water and puts dried meat, dried vegetables, and salt in a pot to simmer.

While the simple camp cooking was going on, I talked with Mya about magic, as requested.

I can't tell her about my background as the ruler of the "Abyss," so I tell her about the ostensible background I've made up.

Both of your parents were magicians? That's why you have such great talent.

You are the one who is using magic at your age, Mya.

I can't compare to you, Mr. Dirk. I can't even use tactical magic, let alone destroy chants.

Magic in this world is basically classified into three categories.

Combat class, Tactics class, and Strategy class - that's it.

As you move from the Combat Class to the Tactics Class, the range and power basically increase.

Attack, defense, recovery, and support are included in these classes.

As one's level increases, those who have the skills and knowledge can learn magic.

When a person becomes proficient, he or she can discard chanting, but it takes a great deal of effort to reach that level.

There is also a difference between the lower, middle, and higher levels among the combat, tactical, and strategic classes.

The "SR, Firewall," which I used, is a magic that is classified in the lower tactical class.

Here are the definitions of each class.

Combat class

Magic performed by a single magician.

Fire Arrow, Ice Arrow, and other attacks.

Depending on the person, there may be a bias in the number of attributes learned, or there may be a large number of them.

Generally speaking, the more biased a person is, the more specialized he or she will be.

Tactical level

Basically, it refers to magic that affects a wide area.

The ability to use this tactical class is considered a barrier to "first-class" magic.

Most racial groups are unable to overcome this barrier.

However, the Dragon Newt, Elf Race, and Demon Race can easily overcome this barrier.

Strategic level

It is a magic that affects more than the tactical class - raining meteorites from the sky, creating tsunamis, causing earthquakes to crack the earth, and so on.

This is why it is called strategic magic.

It is possible for multiple people to chant and unleash their magic power together, but because it is a high technology and extremely costly, it is a magic that is rarely practiced by other races or nations other than the bestial race.

(In addition, my witchcraft teacher, Ellie, can use the Ultimate Class, which is a higher level of magic than the Strategic Class. ) This is a class that is not well known, so even she has told me not to talk about it on the ground.

At the "Ultimate Class," one can resurrect the dead (with many conditions), summon angels who are messengers of the goddess, and even connect space to other dimensions.

Even Ellie, the "forbidden witch" who has mastered magic, can only use it once a day.

That is why it is an extreme level.

By the way, I raised my level to 9999 using this Ultimate Class.

(I had a hard time raising my level. ......) I can't help but look back on it with a faraway look in my eyes.

I was so far away from the world that I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

I don't know much about magic, but Mya is so talented that she once received a recommendation from a magic school in the principality. I'm sure she'll be able to use that tactical level someday, so don't be discouraged."

"Oh, big brother, don't stroke my head, you'll ruin my hair."

Mya wriggled shyly at her brother's skinship.

A duchy is a nation funded and represented by six species and headed by a dragon race (Dragon Newt), who is responsible for managing it.

Its official name is the "Principality of the Six. The official name is the "Six Principality," or the Principality for short.

It is one of the most prosperous countries in the world.

And the Dragonites call their country the "Dragonute Empire.

The Duchy is treated as a colony for them, so they call themselves the Dragonewt Empire.

It is said that once every few years, representatives of the human race, beast race, dragon race (Dragon Neut), elf race, dwarf race, and demon race gather in the principality to hold meetings and make agreements.

The school of magic in the principality is one of the best.

Mya seems to be a really talented magician to be recommended to that school.

But after her parents died of an epidemic, she was unable to pay her tuition and had to quit the magic school she had originally attended,....... My siblings and childhood friends got together and started being adventurers. My goal is to make money as an adventurer so that I can send Miya to the duchy's magician school."

Mya is 13 years old this year.

Elio and the others are 15.

It is believed that magic can be learned better if one studies from an early age.

A few years behind is painful, but it is not a difference that cannot be reversed.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, leader. We're all dreaming, right?"

............"

Gimla smiled and tsked, and Wardy nodded silently.

Mya, in response to the three's answer, replied, "I'm not sure.

I'm happy just to be here with everyone like this. So, don't be too hard on yourselves.

I know. I know. I won't do anything rash.

Again the older brother pats his sister on the head.

This time, Miya accepted her brother's hand without reluctance.

To change the somber atmosphere, Erio spoke up.

By the way, how did you and Dirk become adventurers?

My parents took very good care of me and Nemmu. However, they both lost their lives in a fire and the Lord was badly burned on his face. ...... We became adventurers to find a medicine, a potion, to heal the burns and to broaden the Lord's horizons.

Gold told the story he had prepared in advance.

The "SSR, Mask of the Clown" has illusions and cognitive disruption effects.

The power of the illusion makes it appear as if the face has been badly burned.

He also used the mask as a reason to disguise his appearance.

After Erio's question, the good-natured Gimla raises his hand and insists.

Yes, yes! Can I ask you a question too? Are Mr. Gold and Ms. Nemm by any chance lovers?"

Mya's eyes light up with girlish love talk at this question, and Wardy also silently pays attention.

By the way, I explain that I am 12, Nemmu is 18, and Gold is in his late 20s.

Nemmu makes a bitter, heartbroken face at his words, as if she has chewed up a bitter bug in 10,000 increments.

'Such a vulgar man in gilded armor who looks like he has bad taste and no brains is not my taste. Absolutely not."

Wahahahaha!" I'm sorry too, but I have no interest in poor tits! I prefer older, gold-faced MILFs!"

Who's got the tits! I told you I'm normal!"

Nemmu's face turns red and she punches Gold, who is sitting next to her, in the shoulder with her gosgos.

Putting her reaction aside, I couldn't help but comment on Gold's reply.

'Wow, so that's what Gold likes in a woman. I didn't know that."

Hm, not that I'm hiding it, but it's not something I'm going to tell too many people.

Well then, Mr. Nemm, how about me?

I decline. I have a noble mission to protect Master Dirk.

Mya's eyes light up even more at this response and she looks at me and Nemmu, who are sitting next to each other.

It's an age difference romance, isn't it? It's wonderful.

That's not the kind of relationship me and Nemum have. ......

Before I could deny it, Gold laughed hysterically and waved his hand in front of his face.

Wahahaha! There is none. The Lord is too good for a poor tit like Nemmu!"

So!" Myself! I told you it's normal! You kinky!"

Completely offended by this statement, Nemmu stands up and pulls out a knife, gunning Gold's head out with the handle.

But it had no effect, and he said, "Wahahahahahahahahaha! Gold continued to laugh, as if he was really enjoying himself.

The leader of the group, Elio, was rather horrified by the situation and apologized.

I'm sorry, my party member spoke out of turn!

No, no, please don't worry about it. Rather, I am sorry for disturbing you."

As we were apologizing to each other, the camp pot seemed to have just boiled over.
