Volume 11 Chapter 5 Part 4

Ice Magic and Fire Magic never interfere with one another, but Ice Magic, which has an advantage in terms of resistances and weaknesses, is a little weak in power by itself.
Next is going to be Thunder Magic.

While fighting against the Floor Boss of the 44th floor, Silver Caterpillar, I used the combination of 「Thunderstorm」,「Firestorm」 and 「Water Storm」.

This is my first time using the 「Thunderstorm」Spell.

In the midst of the sparks, flames and icy fog dancing together, I felt something akin to tingling in my fingers. Nothing flashy or accompanied by a bright flash of light, just that, tingling.

I should have expected something like that to occur, since it is thunder and all. that being said though, if I get struck by an electric shock myself, I am going to be in serious trouble.

One Silver Caterpillar stopped moving after the first three shots. It must have been due to paralysis.

Since Miria is attacking the other Floor Boss, I have no doubt that it was caused by my Thunder Magic.

Could it be that paralysis is actually that easy to proc?

「It stopped moving!」

「I did it, desu!」

When I told the girls that I paralyzed the Floor Boss, Miria attacked the other one and petrified it immediately.

When it does not move, be it thanks to paralysis or petrification, you can attack it recklessly without fear of a counterattack.

While Roxanne was attacking the remaining Floor Boss from the front, Miria kept attacking it from the side, which caused the battle to end quickly this time.

Considering that we are on the 44th floor right now, it was embarrassing for the Floor Boss to be defeated that fast.

「Was that Thunder Magic just now?」

「That’s right.」

I hit the petrified Floor Boss with Durandal while answering Sherry’s question.

When they Floor Bosses get petrified, all that we have to do is to finish them off.

「It looked like you used Lightning Magic, Fire Magic, and Water Magic during that Boss battle.」

「Yeah, I used them.」

Sherry was speechless.

This might actually be the first time where she has seen me using three different types of magic at the same time.

To me this is obvious, since now that I got my hands on the Wizard Job, the number of different types of Spells that I can use has increased by one… but I have forgotten to mention that to her.

I am so sorry for that, as well as for the potential trouble that my forgetfulness might have caused.

Now that I have tested the Thunder Magic out, it is time for me to put magic aside for a while and fight with Durandal until my MP gets fully recovered.

Once my MP does get fully recovered, I think it is high time for me to use Thunder Magic again. Since I have yet ti use Thunder Magic’s single target Spell, now might be the best time for me to do so.

I cast 「Thunder Ball」while thinking about it in my mind.

A bright ball forms above my head, with bolts of lightning coiling around the ball.

Ooh! Somehow, it looks pretty cool! Yep, I totally dig the way this Spell looks

It looks the same as the props used in the background when a Demon Lord makes appearance.

It is a flashing ball of thunder that emits lightning all around it.

Kuku… KUKKUKKU!!!

People of Yamato! My name is Goa!!!

The 「Thunder Ball」flies forward. It hit the petrified Floor Boss, but unfortunately that was not enough for me to kill it.

Well, nothing can be done about it I guess.

What I need to do with it is to find a way to reliably proc the paralysis effect, since hitting the enemies and even Floor Bosses with that is going to be a huge deal.

Paralyze is the effect that is going to work especially well in combination with the petrification from Miria’s Estoc of Petrification.

Because of that, should I go and set 「Intermediate Thunder Magic」as the Skill that is going to be used by the Jobless Job? But even though the Spells from the Thunder Magic are capable of inflicting paralysis unto my enemies, there is still going to be the problem with the resistances, just like in the case of Ice Magic, so it might prove to be weak, but it might also prove to not be weak.

Even so, I think that the benefits of Thunder Magic are go great that I should at least give it a try. It all depends on how often and how reliably I am going to be able to inflict monsters with paralysis, but that is a problem for tomorrow that a tomorrow’s me is going to be dealing with.

「Okay, I think that now is the best moment to call it a day for today.」

「Understood. With the new Spells that master has access to, the battle time has shortened yet again, so with that, we should be fine to go to the upper floors…」

「No, we are not going to the higher floors anytime soon. I still need to conduct more tests with the new magic.」

Now that we managed to catch a break from advancing through the Labyrinths, I won’t let Roxanne to end this precious break period so soon.

Or rather, the amount of testing that I have done so far is not enough. Not nearly enough, even though I have never really though about it until now.

We went outside of the Labyrinth where I checked the situation. It is already getting dark now, but since Bode is more to the north than Quratar, then we should still be able to make it there in time without getting late.

We then went to Bode.

「The leader is in the office.」

When I arrived at the lobby, the member of the Knight Order informed me about the Duke’s whereabouts as usual.

How unfriendly of him.

Even though we are going to have a party to celebrate me becoming a member of the Empire Liberation Society, he was still the same as before.
They always respond this way. No change.

Well, putting aside the matter of how I should be dealing with it all the time, the mood in here definitely does not suggest that there is going to be a celebration held tonight.

Or, did they let me in on my own because they are busy with the preparations for the feast and hence they did not have anyone who would guide me, perhaps?

I am always let in without permission though, so maybe there’s nothing more to it than that?

「Come in.」

When I proceed to the office and knock on its door, what I hear is Gozer’s voice.

Urged by him, I enter the room.

「Michio here.」

「Ooh, Lord Michio. You have finally come.」

Naturally, the Duke is also in his office right now.

「We have been waiting for you, Lord Michio.」

「Well then Gozer, we can now proceed with the execution of Operation Seni.」

「Eh? Wha…?」

Gozer, who just finished greeting me, looked at the Duke with confusion in his eyes.

What the hell is Operation Seni? Gozer doesn’t seem to know that either, so it must be something that has been arranged without his knowledge or approval.

「What is this Operation Seni that you are talking abo…?」

「No way. Do you mean 「that」?」

「Yes, we are executing it tonight.」

「Y-Yes, of course.」

Gozer seems to be aware of the operation itself, at the very least.

Whatever that 「Operation Seni」thing is, he just didn’t know that it would be executed tonight.

「I am sorry, Lord Michio, but I am afraid that I have to inform you that we currently have an emergency on our hands.」

「O…kay?」

Emergency, huh? What’s the emergency, exactly? Because there seemed to be nothing going on until now, when I came here.

I looked at Gozer, but he seemed to be just as bewildered as I am.

「Excuse me, but I have to make an emergency call, so I will excuse myself now!」

And with those words, Gozer rushed out of the office.

An emergency call? What does that even mean? Can someone tell me what is going on here?

「So then, we are not going to have dinner?」

「Ah, is it because of the emergency?」

「No, no, don’t mind it. We still have some time.」

Even though the Duke said that this is an emergency, it does not seem to be urgent enough to have them jump into action immediately.
