Magic: My equipment slots have no restrictions

"When we came in, the intersection outside had changed. We were just on the second road, but now it could be any other road."

Miles was about to turn back after he finished speaking, but when he suddenly saw Laura looking thoughtful, he paused for a moment before turning away.

Despite noticing the other person's subtle movements, Victor remained unfazed, listening to Laura's inner monologue in his mind.

This time it's about reminiscing about this road and feeling a sense of loss as things have changed.

"..."

Victor's eyes flickered slightly, and he vaguely felt that Laura's situation was quite similar to his own.

However, I am walking a completely different path from my previous life.

The other person was walking on a familiar road, but what they saw was a completely unfamiliar environment.

"Hopefully she can adapt soon."

After all, the senior student was probably a student from a hundred years ago, and Viktor didn't expect her to be in the same state as her classmates.

Seeing several more forks in the road ahead, he gathered his thoughts and silently recorded the traces left by Miles.

Staring at the other person's back, Victor had a feeling.

That's Miles. He probably doesn't have any bad intentions towards me right now, but if anything unusual happens here...

The other party may not necessarily come to their rescue.

He had no premonition; it was just a reasonable guess based on the cunning nature of the Grey Dwarves.

"Master, the road ahead is quite long, so please don't lose us."

Just as he was pondering this, Miles suddenly reminded him.

Victor's lips curled into a slight smile: "No, you can go ahead."

As he spoke, he gently patted Laura's shoulder, and when she looked up, he gestured for her to "cheer up."

Laura looked over, somewhat confused.

In her view, although they were heading to someone else's territory, the two of them had just demonstrated some of their abilities.

Miles shouldn't have any ulterior motives.

However, trusting Viktor, she nodded in agreement.

Just a few steps after the two finished their silent exchange, a bend appeared ahead.

"Da da da..."

Miles suddenly quickened his pace, turned sharply, and put three body lengths between himself and Victor.

But when Victor and Lo quickened their pace to catch up, Miles returned to his normal speed.

Victor stared at Miles's back with a strange expression, sensing that the other was about to do something.

"Master, don't worry, I just tripped over a pebble."

"..."

Looking at the other person's simple-minded grin, Victor didn't believe him, but he didn't expose him.

Walk properly.

He knew that, based on the time he entered the mushroom cave, it was probably close to dusk by now.

Keep in mind that there are no magical barriers here, and no one can provide protection.

boom!

However, before Victor could finish his thoughts, he heard something explode above him.

He glanced upwards, his gaze immediately sharpening before returning to the front.

But all they saw was Miles's shadow in the passageway disappearing quickly!

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, but his hand reached out to the side.

At this moment, Laura was staring blankly upwards when she saw tiny cracks appearing on the irregular stone surface above her, and blue light was surging out wildly through those cracks!

Her eyes changed slightly, and the next moment a hand grabbed her arm and pulled her forward sharply.

"Rumble..."

Where Laura had just stood, the ceiling collapsed, and a series of boulders crashed down.

Along with it came a surging, dark blue magical power that swept over us!

"Don't space out."

Laura only looked away when Victor's voice rang out again. She was pulled forward by the boy, her short legs moving quickly, looking quite strained.

Fortunately, she doesn't feel anything now and doesn't feel tired.

"Ta-da..."

Viktor knew this too, so he had no intention of showing any mercy and quickly chased after the short figure ahead.

The terrain is winding and rugged.

Although Miles has fast legs, he is not actually fast when he runs.

"Miles, why are you running so fast? Are you trying to avoid me or that... unexpected magical impact?"

When Viktor's question rang in his ears, he felt a chill run down his spine, especially the word "unexpected."

This forced him to speed up immediately.

However, a fierce storm swept past behind them.

With a whooshing sound, Miles felt the back of his neck being suddenly grabbed, and with the momentum of his forward lurch, he was momentarily unable to breathe.

[Speed ​​Curse] [Strength Curse]

In that instant, Viktor cast two beneficial curses on himself simultaneously, the veins on his arms bulging beneath his sleeves.

Pull hard!

"Bang!!"

Miles felt dizzy as he was slammed to the ground by the force, his back making a solid, intimate contact with the ground.

The pain contorted his expression for a moment before he recovered, only to see a fist engulfed in flames hurtling toward his face.

【Flame Fist】

call!

A blast of hot air hit my face, and it stopped right in front of me with a close call.

Miles' eyes reflected the fist, and he subconsciously clenched his teeth, beads of sweat already forming on his forehead.

"boom!"

Before he could even catch his breath, a loud bang suddenly exploded not far away, startling him so much that he almost cried out.

The fist blocked his entire vision, preventing him from seeing anything but flames.

This feeling is suffocating...

"Miles, as a businessman, can't you see the difference between us?"

As the fist gradually died down and slowly moved away, Victor's voice came through.

Miles snapped out of his daze and met Victor's cold gaze. He opened his mouth slightly, but couldn't breathe properly.

"That magical impact wasn't fatal to me, but... even gods have their limits of endurance."

As he spoke, Viktor held up three fingers, then lowered two, leaving only his index finger raised:

"Listen, I just don't want to expend too much magic to have you lead the way, not because I need you that much."

"Besides, you've already used up two chances to live, you only have one left!"

After speaking, Viktor retracted his index finger, then slowly raised his arm and slammed it down.

With a dull thud, Miles' right cheek was struck hard.

"Alright, you can continue leading the way now."

After saying this, Victor went to Laura to check on her condition.

The unexpected surge of magical power just now wasn't exactly powerful, but it was comparable to a level 3 mage's [Magic Missile].

He escaped unscathed thanks to his shield spell, but Laura took the hit.

"Thank goodness you weren't hurt."

After a quick inspection, I saw that the senior student only had a tear in the back of her mage robe, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
