Chapter 18

As I continued to slay the monsters one after another, I realized that my MP was running low.

"Whoa, things are getting tough."

I quickly took out a magic recovery potion from the storage bag at my waist and drank it all in one go.

"Now I can breathe a sigh of relief."

While savoring the sensation of my magic power recovering, I nodded.

Incidentally, the storage bag is a magic item that can store items and weapons in a different dimension. Thanks to the substantial reward I received from Alice, I had just bought it along with the potion. However, since the storage bag is expensive, I could only choose one with a small capacity...

In any case, being able to retrieve items during combat is quite convenient.

"Just to be careful, keep in mind that there is a cooldown period after using a potion..."

While confirming the concerns, I turned my gaze back to the monsters in the sky.

"Alright, let's continue the trial—Slash!"

I continued to unleash my slashes. The flying monsters were pierced one after another, screaming as they disappeared.

*Experience gained. Level up.*

*2 stat points gained.*

"Ah, a level up."

The monsters I was defeating were all lower level than me, but there were so many of them. The cheerful system sound announcing the level up echoed, and I gained 2 new stat points. After some thought, I made a decision.

"This time, I'll put them into stamina. While MP can be replenished with potions, stamina can't be so easily managed."

Until now, I had allocated points to strength and speed, but considering long-term battles, stamina cannot be ignored. This was my judgment and decision. Moreover, stamina is essential for efficiently navigating dungeons, so even without this trial, I would likely have done the same.

In any case, there's still a long way to go.

"Alright, let's go!"

Reinvigorated, I continued to unleash my slashes.

*Experience gained. Level up.*

*2 stat points gained.*

*Experience gained. Level up.*

*2 stat points gained.*

The intense battle continued, and I experienced two more level-ups. Finally, I succeeded in defeating the last monster.

"Phew... Finally, it's over."

I exhaled deeply. The total number of monsters I defeated was around 100, and it took about 10 minutes. Since I was defeating one monster per slash, this was a pretty fast clear time.

"Well, what about the reward?"

Just as I muttered that,

*Clear of the Magic Trial [Falling Bird's Momentum] has been confirmed.*

*As a reward for completing the trial, you will receive [Magic Arrow].*

*Inheritance complete.*

*Skill [Magic Arrow] acquired.*

---

[**Magic Arrow**] Lv.1

- A magic skill

- Attribute: None

- By consuming a small amount of MP, you can fire a magic arrow.

- The power is moderate, but it has excellent rapid-fire capabilities.

The system sound echoed, and I successfully inherited [Magic Arrow].

"Great, this is my third skill, following Parry and Slash."

You might think it overlaps with Slash, but the significant difference is that magic can be cast without a weapon and without any motion.

"Besides, if I can learn that skill someday..."

I couldn't help but smile. In Creon, there is a method to significantly boost the firepower of non-attribute magic. While it's not something I can do immediately, if I can gather all the necessary skills, I won't be outmatched by Slash in terms of destructive power.

Moreover, there is one thing that makes me particularly happy about this inheritance.

"I wasn't doubting it, but... now I really can learn both sword skills and magic skills."

Only the [Void Emblem] can inherit multiple emblems. I knew this theoretically, but I hadn't experienced it as a player. That's why I was excited and elated to witness it for the first time.

However, I have no intention of being satisfied with just this.

"This is just the beginning. I'll keep learning more skills at this pace."

I clenched my fist, determined to face the next challenge.
