Chapter 7

20 minutes later .

I am running away from the 4th orc that I met today, to lure the orc to the trap that Arisu is waiting at . My familiar, the crow —— is crowing in the sky . Perhaps it is cheering for me? (TL note: Somehow I WANT ONE TOOO!!!!)

This orc is different from the previous one and it has a spear in its hand . Although it is a roughly-made rusty spear, but it is still much stronger than the bamboo spear . I am thinking that, after I drop the orc into the trap, I should think of ways to get this spear .

Because we can attack at it one-sidedly, hence there is definitely a chance for victory . Once I think about facing a monster that can fight back, I shivered in fear .

Even I am like this, she must be even more afraid .

But we can think about this later . Right now I am keeping an appropriate distance away from the orc, a distance which he cannot catch up and where he is not too far .

The reason is because the power of《Physical Up》has increased roughly around 2 times .

I now know that ,once I increased Support Magic to Rank 2, I will not only get new magic, but the effect of the existing magic will also increase .

Because I have increased my level to 2, my MP have also increased . After I asked in the white room, I now know that I can use Rank 1 magic for around 2 times more .

When I am at level 1, I can only use 10 times of Rank 1 magic .

When I am at level 2, I can use it 20 times .

As this is too troublesome, so I decided to use 「1 MP」to express that 「I can use Rank 1 magic for 1 time」 .

In other words, my MP is now 20 .

As for HP, I only knew that it rose .

I am not going to get attacked by the orc just to find out the greatest value of my HP .

I got near to the trap and signalled to the back of the trunk . Just as we discussed, Arisu is hiding behind a tree .

Her clothes that were originally torn by the orc, is not completely restored . This is because I use Rank 2 Support Magic 《Repair》 . That was a magic that was originally used for repairing weapon and protective gears . After I used it on torn clothes, the clothes turned in a state that is like it had been washed . But this magic seems to be unable to remove the sweat and mud on the clothes, so it still looks a bit dirty .

Okay . I jumped across the trap and landed on the other side . This is the third time, hence I am already very familiar with it .

I turned my head, and the orc that was chasing me, give a heavy step and stepped on the place that I was just at .

Yes, she has already leveled up to Level 1 . She is now the same as me, having the qualifications to enter that white room . It maybe like a instant to me, but she has already spent a long time in that room .

I suggested to her to use the laptop to ask all sorts of information, if she followed my words, she must have spent at least 1 or 2 hours .

Because of that, she seems so calm .

Arisu breathed out . With the spear in her hand, she turned towards me .

Maybe it is just me, but the stance which she used to hold the spear seems to be more natural .

No, it did indeed became so .

「I have gotten Spear Skill and Healing Magic . 」

Arisu said so .

「《Heal》」

Arisu cast healing magic towards my hand .

My hand that was hurting due to the abrasions and wounds, was wrapped in bluish white light .

The pain gradually disappear, and in an instant, even the scars are gone .

Only a red trace was seen at the wound, like a proof that it was injured before .

「I see, that is really convenient . 」

「Yes . 」

Arisu laughed and began to heal her wounds . It was obvious that her wounds are more serious, but she insisted on using the healing magic on me first .

「There is really a white room . 」

「So you actually suspected me . 」

「Not that wasn’t it……」

I gave a bitter smile .

「After all this is hard to for people to believe in . 」

「That’s right . 」

The truth is, if our positions are reversed…… Mmm, I will probably be the same .

「But I did choose the Skill . This is all due to Gaya-senpai . 」

「Just call me Kazuhisa or Kazu . Because we are companions . 」

「Yes, Kazuhisa-san……Kazu-san . That～」

A shy smile appeared on Arisu’s face as she looked up towards me .

「Please call me Arisu since everyone does that . Also I am your Kouhai, so just call my name directly . 」(TL note: Kouhai = junior)

「I understand, Arisu . 」

「Yes!」

Arisu happily smiled . Seeing her expression, I am also infected with her happiness, and smiled .

「Do you know how to use the spear now?」

「Yes . 」

The weapon in her hand, is the rusty spear of the orc that just died .

The metal spearhead maybe rusty, but it is still much better than the bamboo spear that I made casually .

So this spear should also be《Repair》as well . I borrowed the spear from Arisu and use my hand to touch the spearhead .

「《Repair》」

The metallic spearhead glowed with blue light and the rust gradually disappeared . After about 10 seconds, the metal tip of the spear became almost like new, radiating its shininess .

「Wah～」

Arisu could not help but exclaimed in surprise .

「Amazing, Kazu-senpai . 」

「Yes, amazing . 」

Although that is done by me, but I also said it uncaringly . Because the thing that happened in front of me is really extraordinary . It should be, in my heart, there is already no more feelings of the reality .

「But as long as I have this, I will…… be able to fight . 」

Arisu clutched her lips and nodded with a stern expression .

「I am no longer powerless . 」
