[WN] Shut-In : Chapter 27


Chapter 27

Easily


Translator : PolterGlast


Fortunately, I had time, so I was able to try all the magic other than lightning magic and light magic.

Today I would like to unveil the results.

 

I'll focus on lightning and light magic for combat, but if there is magic that can be used outside of combat, I'll use it.

I hope there's something good.

 

The most useful magic for me was, surprisingly, one of the wind magics.

 

Wind Search, learned at LV 6.

This is a magic that allows you to search for external enemies by channeling your mana through the wind.

 

After you release it, you'll be able to see how the wind moves, and you'll be able to capture the reaction of moving objects.

 

By using this, I was able to easily detect the reaction of monsters.

Thanks to this, search and destroy became even easier, and now I can hunt wraiths the moment they respawn.

 

As for others, fire magic is still combat-oriented.

Water magic can move water to suffocate an opponent, but it's a bit tricky.

 

Earth magic is not fully understood yet because the LV has not been fully raised, but it seems to be useful for setting traps and preparing in advance to intercept an opponent.

 

Ice magic can freeze an opponent when it hits.

Like fire magic, the merit is that you can fight while giving the opponent a status abnormality.

 

Space-time magic is quite special, and so far I've only used the item box.

However, space-time magic has a lot of magic that is versatile.

 

Probably, what I'll be relying on in the future is the Perception magic, which recognizes the space I'm in now, which I learned at LV 9.

In simple terms, this is a magic that displays a map of the space you are in in your head.

 

The accuracy is not that high, and you can't tell the location of the stairs that go down the floors, but even so, it will definitely be necessary when diving into the sixth floor and below, where there is no information at all.

 

I can further accelerate and increase the power of powerful magic such as Gungnir and Judgment Ray by using magic that can accelerate or decelerate the target.

 

I can develop a super-fast speed battle that leaves my opponent behind by using teleportation continuously.

 

There are many things I can do and my dreams are expanding thanks to that, but the difficulty level is too high for me, who can't even activate two spells at the same time.

 

And finally, dark magic.

In simple terms, this is magic that excels at disturbance and stealth.

 

Black Bullet, which solidifies shadows and shoots them out, and Shadow Arts, which wraps dark magic power around weapons, tickle the heart of a chuunibyou, but probably the strong part of dark magic is not pure offensive power.

 

Smoke Curtain, which spreads pitch-black smoke, Darkness Fog, which puts the opponent in a darkness state of abnormality, and Shadow Dive, which allows me to put myself into a shadow, are the true essence of this magic.

 

Now you understand what I mean when I say it's dark magic in a nutshell, right?

 

However, I thought that I could learn debuffs in dark magic because I was able to learn buffs in light magic, but so far I haven't learned any debuff magic.

 

Maybe in this world, there are status abnormality attacks, but there is no debuff magic.

 

Well, my magic research has progressed quite a bit in these ten days.

So, in order to be able to use these magics well, now that I have finished checking all the magics, I have been practicing to master dark magic and space-time magic, and consuming MP by using lightning magic and light magic to get my body used to them.

 

Now, I thought I could handle the fifth floor with this, so I tried to challenge it...

 

"Railgun"

 

"Gugagaa!"

 

After carefully checking everything, I gave it a go, and the Skeleton Warrior was blown to pieces with a single hit from my railgun.

And I found out that I could even annihilate three of them together with Chain Lightning.

 

While thinking that I might have tried a little too hard, I kept defeating Skeleton Warriors while using Wind Search, which gradually expanded its search range by continuing to use it, and stuffed my lame-patterned drawstring bag with core fragments until it was full.
