[Magic Bullet Magic Missile]

Required Magic Lv1 Range: 30m Target: Material alone

Appearance: Chapter 42

A magic bullet with an attack power of 10 is released in a straight line.

The power is low, but it consumes little and the chanting is completed quickly, making it suitable for checking shots.

It is a simple basic offensive magic, but its power varies greatly depending on the magic power of the magician and the magic defense of the target.

[Gravity Binding Gravity Hold]

Required Magic Lv10 Range: 10m Target: 5m from center Duration: 5min

Appearance: Episode 42

Generates directional gravity within a range.

When in range, actions are penalized according to the gravity.

[Magic Bombardment Penetrate]

Required Magic Lv13 Range: 100m Target: Material Single Loading Time: 1 minute

Appearance: Episode 42

This technique basically requires a magical initiator device to prevent repercussions to the practitioner.

A flash of light with 120 attack power is released at the target. This technique requires one minute of loading time before it can be activated.

This is a great technique that can be considered a one-hit kill, but because it takes so long to activate, it is usually used to target immobile targets, unleash it on a swarm, or destroy obstacles.

It takes a lot of ingenuity and skill to aim and shoot a single target in a one-on-one situation, as Souya did with the Silver Demon.

[Stone Storm]

Required Spiritual Art Lv7 Element: Earth Spirit Range: within sight, 30m from medium Target: Material Single

Appearance: Episode 42

Command an earth spirit to unleash a swirling stone storm with 20 attack power.

If the area around the target is dense, there is a chance that multiple targets will be hit.

It’s more effective against crowded opponents, but it’s not suitable for melee combat.

The only condition to activate this technique is the presence of stone gravel or a similar medium.

It was almost ineffective against the Silver Demon, but it is powerful enough to kill a kobold goblin with a single blow.

Name: Randy

Age: 18 Gender: Male Race: Human Occupation: Hero Adventurer Grade: Silver-class

Affiliation: Windbreakers

Height 180 cm, Weight 72 kg　

He has glossy blond hair that is a little long for a man. He has a taut, beautiful voice.

He is a descendant of the evil dragon slayer Anselm, and is a swordsman who calls himself a hero.

(But Anselm had a harem of children, so he has a certain amount of bloodline.)

He is the leader of the Windbreakers, and is highly skilled for a rookie.

He has a tendency to get carried away and antagonize the other adventurers.

Since he fell in love with Mia at first sight, he has been messing with her in various ways.

Because of his good looks, he was quite popular with women, but unlike his ancestors, he seemed to be single-minded about women.

His family was a blacksmith. His skills are still semi-skilled, as he went on a journey as if he was running away without completing his training.

Age: 18 Gender: Female Race: Human Occupation: Magician Adventurer Grade: Bronze-class

Affiliation: Windbreakers

Height 158cm, Weight 46kg

Red hair in a ponytail, freckles, slightly angled eyes.

She is the granddaughter of an old magician who is the wisdom of the village, and a childhood friend of Randy and Thomas.

She has a soft spot for Randy, and has been forcing herself to follow him on his adventures. She has the basics down, but her magic skills are not up to par.　

She tends to be cautious. In that sense, she’s a good adventurer.

She’s not mentally strong enough to be an adventurer, but as Randy pointed out, she’s probably not cut out for it.

She has a cold attitude towards her romantic rival Mia, but she is aware that he is doing something wrong, and she hates herself for it.

Appearance: Episode 40

The magician can visually tell if the spell is being cast or not, as a faint glow of magic power is cast.

The rate of increase in magic resistance varies depending on the power of the magician.

Name: Thomas

Age: 18 Gender: Male Race: Human Occupation: Archer Adventurer Grade: Bronze-class

""

Affiliation: Windbreakers

Height: 192 cm. Weight: 80 kg.　

Brown Hair. Hair that almost covers his eyes. He has a strong physique, but a small voice.

He is a lonely hunter who used to make a living by hunting in the village. Randy and Rebecca are childhood friends of the same age.

Like Rebecca, he followed Randy to become an adventurer (unlike Rebecca, he was invited by Randy to be his follower).

Affiliation: Windbreakers

Height 174cm, Weight 68kg　

Medium build, but stout. A priest-warrior with a shaved head.

He is from the far east, and is a follower of the god of war, Ragacia.

He is a monk who was invited to accompany the three childhood friends of Windbreakers when they were in the blank-class.

""

Therefore, the current four have not changed from the original members.

He is a man of few words, but he speaks in a very serious tone. And as a follower of the god of war, Ragacia, he’s belligerent.

Randy, a younger member of the team, had overtaken him and was still a bronze-class.

But he was on the verge of being promoted to silver with just one more successful request.

This was one of the reasons why he chose to assault the fort.

<About the demon race>

Basically, “Colored” have strong personalities, and there are few with similar abilities. Therefore, there is no winning strategy. However, any magic weapon with a special attack effect on the demon race can be expected to be effective. They use magic, spiritual arts, and dark arts, except for sacred magic. Some silver and above use two types, and some golden use three.

Small Demon Imp

A lower-level demon that is not colored. Not very strong. Slightly stronger than goblins. It is strong enough to compete even with bronze-class alone. Some of them use rudimentary dark arts. Their capacity is light, and they can be summoned to the surface world rather easily. Dark priests sometimes use them as their messengers.

Bronze Demon

This is the lowest level of colored demons. The so-called Lesser Demon class. Most of the demons you can see on the ground are like this. However, they are much stronger than ordinary adventurers. A silver party can deal with one of these by beating it to a pulp. Capacity is reasonable. A high-ranking dark priest may use it as a messenger.

Silver Demon

A colored mid-level class. The so-called Greater Demon class. It is the highest level demon that can be seen on above ground. The opponent that Souya and the others fought in Chapter 3(Chapter 29-46). It’s too much for a human to fight, and can only be dealt with by a platinum-class party. Some individuals may even be annihilated. A golden-class party alone has little chance of winning. Its capacity is high, and summoning it from the other world requires a certain amount of preparation and compensation. Individuals and parties that defeat them will be honored with the title of Demon Slayer.

Gold Demon

A colored upper class. The so-called arc-demon class. Or what we call the Demon King. There are a total of thirteen of them. The motif of their appearance is the twelve stars of the ecliptic. Normally, they don’t have a way to travel to the earthly world, but if they appear by any means, they become a danger to the world (there have been cases of their appearance in the past). Even if the body is destroyed, it is impossible to completely destroy the soul, and it takes hundreds of years for the soul to be resurrected.

Platinum Lord　

The highest colored class. Daemon Lord. The only one who should be called the Great Demon Lord, and the pinnacle of the Otherworld. A single one has the power to rival all thirteen gold demons. He is so powerful that it is considered impossible for him to appear in the earthly world due to his capacity. If he did appear, he would be strong enough to scorch the world in a day. It is the source of power for the dark arts used by the demon race, and indirectly influences the earthly world.
