「《Thunder Field》 《Thunder Strike Mine》!」

When I cast that combined spell, my consciousness was focused only on the boars. I’m sure Aya will be able to keep up with that Kuruwasebana… If she’s dying, of course I’ll save her, okay?

■■■■■■■■■■

【Name】 《Wind Magic》: Combined: Thunder Strike Mine MP consumption: 100 consumption per unit

【Effect ① (LV. 1)】 You can unleash a skill that combines Thunder Strike and Thunder Mine.

【Effect ② (LV. 5)】 Increases the damage dealt to opponents who step on it (small). Electrifies the opponent who stepped on it.

【Effect ③ (LV. ☆)】 If the electrified opponent steps on it again, the attack power will increase (medium).

■■■■■■■■■■

This is the skill description of the combined magic: 《Thunder Strike Mine》. But this doesn’t tell me what the effect is, does it?

「「「「「Bumooooo!!!」」」」」

───Dodododododododododo!!!!!

There were a total of 6 boars charging at me with great force. I chanted incessantly and placed the 《Thunder Strike Mine》 at the predicted point of the boars’ movement.

───Dodododododo… Pachichi…

「「「「Bumo… ?」」」」

───Dogoooooon!!!!

《Thunder Mine》 only has the ability to cause a slightly stronger electricity to the opponent who steps on it. However, what happens when I combine it with 《Thunder Strike》, which focuses its attack power on a single blow?

「「「「「Bumooooooo!?!!?!??!?」」」」」

The boars fainted in agony from the pain.

That’s right. Instead of causing a slightly stronger electricity to flow to the opponent who stepped on it, 《Thunder Strike》 would flow down, absorbing that amount of attack power. The downside, however, is that it will no longer be able to absorb the electricity that surrounds it, and as a result, its power will be reduced.

「That’s enough for you guys! 《Thunderbolt》!」

───Badjidjidjidjidji!!!

「Bumoooo!??!?!?」

──────

───

After killing all 6 of them, I can finally join Aya! Just when I thought that…

「────── !!!!」

───Pikaaaaaaaa!!!

The high-pitched cry of Kuruwasebana echoed in the area, and a flash of light shone.

「Aya!!」

I screamed as I watched the light shoot towards Aya, altering its course with a crunch… And sure enough, Aya had been pierced by multiple rays of light. But Aya has fighting spirit in her eyes, and seeing her eyes, I naturally swallow.

───I can’t lose, either.

That’s what I thought, and I tried to join Aya this time. But…

───Dodododododododododo!!!!

「… No way… ?」

「「「Bumooooooo!!!!」」」

That Kuruwasebana probably didn’t mean to call the wild boars. But the boars came… You can probably guess by now…

「Aah, jeez! So troublesome! 《Raijin》!」

Consuming all MP, I become a Raijin. There are 7 thunderballs behind me. That’s about 2,800 MP.

In addition, I drink a MP recovery potion and activate my magic. The reason why I didn’t use [Thunder] is because I prefer to use this on bosses. My Thunder Magic, which has been strengthened by becoming Raijin, will be enough for the boars.

「《Thunder Strike》」

───Zutoooooon!!!!!!!

「Bumooooooo!?!!?!??!?」

All the boars went down with one blow. Here’s the scary part of 《Raijin》. 《Raijin》’s effect (3) contains 『While using the skill, all effects of thunder magic are increased (medium)』. “All effects”. This is tremendous.

First, there is the attack power of the skill by itself. Then, it also increases the speed and the attack power against electrified opponents of 《Thunder Field》… This is a true cheat, as it increases various effects such as the following If you combine them together, the normally weak 《Thunder Strike》 will quickly turn into a greatly enhanced version of it!

───

After a few minutes, I killed all the boars. All that was left to do was to throw these thunderballs at Kuruwasebana.

Wait for me, Kuruwasebana. I won’t forget what you did to Aya… ??
