[WN] Shut-In : Chapter 25


Chapter 25

Healing Magic


Translator : PolterGlast


How many wraiths have I defeated?

I stopped counting along the way, but I'm sure I've defeated hundreds.

 

I defeated the wraiths that were gathered at the dead end with Chain Lightning all at once, or practiced adjusting my position so that I could defeat multiple wraiths with one shot by skillfully controlling Lightning Bolt, a higher-level magic than Lightning, which draws a zigzag trajectory like lightning... I slaughtered many wraiths while doing such things.

 

At first, I looked at the status in detail and counted the mana consumption, but in the middle of it, I completely became a machine that absolutely kills wraiths and continued to use magic.

 

When I finally regained my ego from fatigue and checked the time, five hours had already passed since I started exploring.

 

To say the least, there is a reason why I, who was using magic with the momentum of killing every enemy I saw on this fourth floor, still haven't run out of MP.

Mana Recovery LV2

 

A new mana recovery has been added to my skills.

This seems to be a skill that simply enhances the natural recovery of mana, and thanks to this, I don't have to worry too much about MP consumption as long as I'm releasing Lightning and Light Arrows from time to time.

 

A while ago, it was LV1, and 2 MP, which is twice as much as before, was recovering in 10 minutes.

But before I knew it, the LV had risen to 2.

I'll check how much this recovery amount is later.

 

"All right!"

 

So I put up a Sanctuary to ward off wraiths, and then took out the fruit knife from the item box.

 

And I mustered up my courage--and thrust it into my arm.

 

"Ouch... ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch!!"

 

My head goes blank from the shock I'm experiencing for the first time.

What is this? It hurts so much.

But the pain quickly disappeared. What came instead was heat.

The blood vessels in my arm throbbed, and the affected area was so hot that I couldn't stand it.

 

"Last Hea... wait, no! No, no!"

 

I scold myself for trying to use recovery magic right away.

I'd be in trouble if I recovered with the knife still in it and it became completely fused with the flesh.

 

Just because I'm not used to the pain, I'm not thinking straight at all.

Calm down, it's not like my life is in danger.

It's just that a fruit knife is stuck in my arm.

 

"Phew, phew..."

 

I repeat inhaling and exhaling roughly.

My thinking ability has returned to the point where I can tell that the heat has disappeared and the pain has returned.

 

Let's check the status.

HP was reduced by 12.

Seriously, only 12 with this pain!?

I won't complain as long as my HP is high because it helps that I won't seem to die easily!

 

"Okay, here we go... one, two... three!"

 

At the same time as I shouted, I put strength into the handle and pulled it out in one breath.

When I looked at the status that was still open, my HP had decreased by 3 more.

 

"...Oh man, it's completely useless!"

 

I wanted to get rid of this pain as soon as possible, so I used Last Heal, the highest-level recovery magic, but... I couldn't get myself ready to activate the magic at all.

 

The pain has made me so distracted that I find my consciousness going to the affected area, to the status, and to the wraiths I can see in the distance.

In such a state, it's only natural that it's difficult to use magic.

 

After all, it was a high LV magic, and it took me what seemed like an eternity to use the Last Heal.

 

"--Last Heal!"

 

A mysterious light that fills this place, which you can keep your eyes open even though it's brighter than a flash grenade, fills the place.

 

And when the flesh swelled up like a video playing in reverse, the wound disappeared in an instant.

 

"...It's kind of gruesome."

 

While giving such a somewhat off-topic impression, I moved on to checking the usability of the magic to use the remaining MP.

 

But still... phew, I'm tired.

I'm getting depressed thinking that I have to do this kind of thing many more times.

 

I feel a little anemic, so I'll eat a lot of rice today.

 

I didn't touch it because it was troublesome to defrost, but I'll eat the frozen Kobe beef steak to build up my energy.
