Kato Megumi wants to learn magic

……

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 114 Chapter Because I'm a Genius

Seeing that everyone considerately agreed with her "explanation", Kato Megumi just found it a little funny, so she stopped joking and seriously recounted the situation at that time.

"Ah~ I was just kidding... Actually... I didn't get seriously injured because when Hui was knocked away, I hid in space, which saved me from the subsequent inertia."

"As for magic... this is Hui's chance..." Kato Hui paused, "You can think of it as a power bestowed upon me by God, that's all.

After listening to Kato Megumi's narration, everyone finally understood what was going on.

The moment the tail hit the shield, Kato Megumi immediately realized that something was wrong. The heavy force penetrated the iron shield and numbed her hands, causing them to loosen. The shield also hit her body with the same force, causing her organs to become numb and her bones to almost break.

At the critical moment, Kato Megumi quickly thought of the space. While the force from the shield had not been fully transmitted and her body had not yet been completely shattered by the distance transmitted by the shield, she took out a bomb from the space with a thought and threw it at her feet; and she herself instantly entered the space, leaving the carrier of the space to be blown away by the shock wave.

Kato Megumi knew that the material of the space itself was extremely hard, and the powerful props left over from ancient times had strong defensive capabilities. That was why she used bomb explosions to deal with the monsters. As she expected, the explosion did not cause any damage to the carrier at all.

The violent explosion blew the carrier of the space far away, and the Warcraft was also dying by the violent explosion, with only one breath left to survive. Then it was Kato Megumi who came out of the space and used magic to end the opponent's life.

Afterwards, Kato Megumi took the time to use healing techniques to heal herself, which resulted in her looking like she had no scars at all.

"Wow! I see," Duo Luo suddenly realized, "No wonder you kept asking me about various magic techniques during this journey. I thought you were curious about magic because the attack power of divine arts was not high. I didn't expect that Hui is also a magician!"

When Duo Luo said this, she suddenly felt embarrassed.

"In this case, wouldn't it be possible for you to be both a priest and a magician, able to perform ranged attacks and heal yourself? Wouldn't it be like having two professions in a team at once?"

"No, I think it should be three professions. Your Majesty, your speed and strength are no less than that of a high-level warrior. This means that you can form an adventure team by yourself."

Krina said seriously.

"Melee, ranged, and healing are all available. This... is simply unbelievable."

Emory’s eyes widened, and Alyssa beside him also thought for a moment, with a complicated expression on her face.

"Indeed... The reason why the Adventurer's Guild and the teams exist is that, on the one hand, a team can easily obtain greater rewards and reduce casualties, and a reasonable combination can stimulate greater combat power; on the other hand, a person can only become one profession. This is the rule of the world. Warriors cannot learn magic, and priests cannot learn swordsmanship. So if you want to attack a monster, you must form a team to cooperate with each other if you don't have strong strength."

"I didn't expect that you, Saint, could hold three positions at the same time. This is simply breaking the rules... Even a hero doesn't have such a unique ability. You know, a hero is also a person favored by God."

Seeing a group of people looking at her with curious eyes, Kato Megumi curled the ends of her hair with her index finger uncomfortably, her eyes full of innocence.

"Maybe...ah...I'm a genius!"

Everyone rolled their eyes at Kato Megumi's answer.

……

……

The battle did not last long because of the final ice magic, the monster's blood turned into crystals and did not evaporate into the air, so it did not attract other monsters.

Although the battle did not last long, the noise was quite loud. In order to prevent the group from encountering new monsters, they had to leave this place as soon as possible.

After preparing their equipment and eliminating the team's scent through some means, the team continued to move deeper inside.

Because of the SARS eye worm, the original road may not be safe. In order to prevent accidents, the group took another route planned by Emery. Fortunately, although this route is a bit far, the danger is not increased. It's just that the fog is a bit thick and the visibility is reduced again.

In the group, Emory and three other people were in the front, Clina was in the back, and Kato Megumi was in the middle of the team. This was the suggestion made by everyone because she would be better protected this way; Kato Megumi repeatedly refused and said that she could explore the way ahead.

However, Alyssa and the others rejected her on the grounds that they had been through battle and lacked experience, and told her to take good care of herself. Kato Megumi was helpless about this, but in the end, she had no choice but to accept their kindness. After all, although she was not injured in the battle just now, the consumption of energy was inevitable, especially when using divine arts and magic, both of which consume mental power, so they were not wrong.

After the battle just now, the rest of the journey was quite peaceful. Kato Megumi followed the team and moved forward slowly, thinking about the mistakes and experiences made in the battle just now.

In the final analysis, she was still careless. She used common sense to think that the hairy creature had no scales and its body would not be that strong, so she used a dagger to attack it. However, facts told her that some things cannot be judged rashly before they are clear. If there was no space, she would have been seriously injured by now. Even with divine treatment, it would take a long time for her to recuperate, making her a burden.

Thinking about this, she had a deep understanding of what Emery said about the psychological preparation before the battle; for example, in the battle with the monster just now, if she had had a certain idea of ​​the monster's physical strength in her mind from the very beginning, she would not have used the dagger to attack the opponent's body, but would have tried her best to observe the opponent's weaknesses, or directly attacked the opponent from the inside, such as the mouth.

Moreover, after this battle, Kato Megumi realized the problem with the energy system of this world; it seemed... the people with special abilities in this world were too weak. High-level warriors and magicians were already the most powerful forces besides Platinum in the setting of this world, but in actual combat they were only several times stronger than mid-level adventurers. There was not an unbridgeable gap of hundreds or thousands between the major classes as Patchouli said.

This made Kato Megumi feel very strange.

“Do you want to ask Alyssa?”

Kato Megumi thought so in her heart.

But at this moment... she suddenly stopped and her heart skipped a beat.

Is it a little too quiet around here?

Kato Megumi looked up and looked around...

There was no one in sight...

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 115 Chapter Kato Megumi trapped in a fantasy

"Eiriri?"

"Clina...?"

"Dorothy...Alyssa...Emory...?"

Maybe there was nothing around and the companions she was walking with suddenly disappeared. It was impossible for Kato Megumi not to panic; but soon, she suppressed her worries. Maybe everyone was just a little far away from her. After all, how could such a large group of people get lost?

So Kato Megumi began to call out softly, trying to find a companion who might be nearby. ?

After all, they are not ordinary people. The visibility in the fog is quite good. They can see more than ten meters away. Logically speaking, the obstruction of vision is not particularly serious, and it is not enough to cause them to disperse for no reason, and it is done so quietly.

However, in fact, it was Krina and the others who disappeared beside him, and Kato Megumi didn't even notice it.

"Eri...where are you guys?"

"Captain Emory? Please answer if you hear me."

The lush forest moistened by moist fog blocked her voice, creating a feeling that her voice was heard without return; the sound did not seem loud, and she could not help but... shout at the top of her lungs, but after a long time, there was still no response to her shout.

Kato Hui couldn't help but frowned. What on earth was going on? The anxiety and doubts in her heart were accompanied by a trembling of anxiety. Even though she was not a person with rich emotions and was usually calm and self-controlled, facing this situation, Kato Hui was still a little panicked.

"Should we go look for them... No, if everyone is scattered, it would be unwise to leave the place..."

But what if I don't leave? Should I just wait like this until they come looking for me?

After thinking it over again and again, Kato Hui made up her mind and decided to wait a while. Walking must leave traces, and they might use the traces to find the missing herself, or even return the same way.

After all, no matter how low the visibility in the fog is, the traces of grass on the ground will not disappear inexplicably. In this case, standing there and waiting may be the best option, because there is a high probability that they will come to find you.

Thinking of this, Kato Megumi's heart suddenly calmed down. She looked around and then came to a big tree that several people could hug together. The land under the tree was quite flat and there were no vines covered with sharp thorns. It was a good place to wait for others.

Seeing that the ground under the tree was quite wet, Kato Megumi was about to take out a dry blanket from the space and spread it on the ground so that she could sit down and rest.

However, before she could take out the things, Kato Megumi's movements suddenly stiffened.

"how come……"

Kato Hui suddenly frowned, her eyes full of confusion, because she suddenly found that she could not feel the existence of space, so she had no way to take things out of space.

"Why is this happening..."

Kato Megumi took out the space carrier, picked up the sun-shaped pendant around her neck and placed it in front of her eyes for careful observation. She suddenly found that she could not use her mental power to detect the outside world at all, so the space carrier controlled by mental power could not be used.

Since mental power cannot perceive the outside world, can the space in the spiritual sea be used?

Kato Megumi tried it, but the result was the same, because she could not sense the existence of space at all, even the space deep in her mind.

This is a little strange...

Her own soul space exists just like her own hands and feet. There will basically be no problem of loss of contact. But the facts tell her that her space has lost connection. This feeling is like losing her own hands and feet and she doesn't even know it. It's so strange.

Kato Megumi was thinking in her heart, and suddenly looked around.

Suddenly, she raised her feet and started walking outside.

In order to avoid getting lost, Kato Megumi kept paying attention to her steps until she was more than a hundred meters away from the place where she was originally, observed for a while, and then returned along the same path she had taken.

Going back and forth, Kato Megumi walked around everywhere and left her mark everywhere, and then returned to her original place.

Then she fell into deep thought for a long time.

"Flame of life, please bring the warmest light, the most dazzling flame..."

"Come out, Flame—"

Kato Megumi tapped the scepter lightly and chanted a magic spell.

However, nothing seemed to have changed in front of him, whether it was the magical fluctuations or the spells that had already taken shape.

Kato Megumi concentrated and pursed her lips.

"Holy light brings hope and progress"

"bright--"

This time, Kato Megumi used magic again, and the result was exactly the same as when she cast magic, the surrounding environment did not change at all.

This time, Kato Megumi finally understood what was going on.

It wasn't that the space disappeared, nor that her companions disappeared. Everything she saw was actually an illusion, or better yet, a dream.

The person who created this dream obviously did not understand what mental power was, nor what space was, let alone what magic was. That is why the dream he created did not show these things.

After a series of attempts, Kato Megumi suddenly remembered a plant that Alyssa once told her about - dream grass, a plant unique to the Misty Forest.

Dream grass, as the name suggests, is a kind of grass that can make people dream and can calm the mind and promote sleep.

However, there is a mutated fantasy dream grass above the dream grass. The fantasy dream grass is not easy to grow, and perhaps only one out of thousands of plants can mutate. The fantasy dream grass can not only promote sleep, but also allow others to enter their dreams while awake without knowing it, making them unconscious and trapped in a dream for a short time, unable to wake up.

However, the illusion created by the dream grass has a huge drawback, that is, the illusion it creates can only be the environment around it, and it cannot create things that have not been seen in the growth environment.

Because of this, neither magic nor space can be used here, because the grass that shapes the environment does not know these things. The environment it creates is just an environment, like a moving texture, so naturally these things cannot be used.

If ordinary magicians and priests were caught in this situation, they would probably think that they had come to a magic-free land or a forbidden land; but Kato Megumi was different, she had space, divine arts and magic; therefore, she did not think that this was a magic-free land at first, but gradually used her divine arts and magic, as well as space.

Divine arts cannot be used because gods are forbidden, and magic cannot be used because there is no magic. What about space? It can't be that this place naturally restrains extraordinary people and all rules. How is this possible?

In addition, Kato Megumi discovered through observation that the surrounding vegetation was very uniform, and many trees seemed different but were actually very different. This gave her an idea, and she gradually discovered the truth.

"If that's the case, then it's easy to deal with..."

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 116 Chapter The group of people who were captured

What can wake you up from a dream? It is naturally when you encounter death. Even if you know it is fake, you will still react to the shock and death. For example, people who have nightmares will be awakened, and people who watch horror movies will be scared to death.

After thinking about it, Kato Megumi took a fist-sized piece of sharp-edged gravel from the side and threw it into the sky with force.

Then he stood calmly under the rubble, slowly looking up at the shadow above his head that was getting bigger and bigger and coming towards his head.

Brush it...

Kato Megumi opened her eyes.

……

……

Her vision was dim and her eyes seemed to be blocked by a layer of foggy glass. Kato Megumi knew that this was because she had just woken up from a coma.

After blinking and moving her eyeballs, Kato Megumi was able to see everything in front of her with the dim light.

I seemed to be lying on a rock. I tried to move my body, but I couldn't struggle. It seemed that my body was tied up by vines or something.

The rocks emit little green lights, illuminating everything around them, just like fireflies.

Kato Megumi frowned and looked carefully at everything around her in the dim light. She seemed to be in a rock cave. The cave was very large, and because the vision was very dim, Kato Megumi could not see the end at all.

"Doro?"

"Clina?"

Turning her head and looking around, with the help of the dim light, Kato Megumi discovered that Krina and the others were tied up like herself. The rope seemed to be made of some vines, which was as wide as two thumbs and tied them up tightly.

"Hey~ wake up! Clina! Doro!?"

Kato Megumi tried to wake them up, but they seemed to be completely unconscious and couldn't be woken up no matter what she did.

Kato Megumi, who was unaware of the situation, did not dare to speak loudly, and there was nothing she could do about it. For some reason, there were only four people among the tied-up people: Clina, Doro, Alyssa, and herself, while Emory, Eriri, and their cat were completely missing.

After discovering this situation, it has to be said that Kato Megumi breathed a sigh of relief. Although it is not clear what is going on, it is not a bad thing that Emory and Eriri did not appear here like them. Emory himself does not know, but Eriri did not appear here, and she did not feel that she was in danger. This is undoubtedly a good thing. At least she can get effective information by pitying Eriri.

You have to know that there is a contractual relationship between him and Eriri. The two of them can communicate with each other through the contract. As long as they are not in a special environment or a place with a barrier, there will be no problem in normal communication.

Thinking of this, Kato Megumi did not waste any time, but directly contacted Eriri through the contract.

Soon, news came from Eriri.
