Graduated from Witchcraft Institute

Now that we've finished the goblins on the lookout, we're going to step right into the cave.

Mi the bandit (sheaf) was earing and listening to the ground near the entrance.

By the way, some people who watch adventurer operations sweetly say they don't need to bother to step into a cave to slap a bunch of goblins lurking in the cave.

But I'm skeptical about that idea.

According to what they say, you can just burn the fire at the entrance and send in smoke, or you can use the phenomenon of dust (hump) explosions like those that occur in the mine to exhaust the grid.

But it is my idea that those operations are ineffective and do not leave the airspace on the desk.

Besides, under circumstances where the enemy has not perceived this presence, even if the smoke can be sent accurately, there is also a risk that the act itself will inform the enemy of this presence.

We're going to need a decision on whether it's worth enough to throw away the interest of an ambush.

─ ─ And so I thought to myself, and I asked Satsuki.

"Is it possible for Satsuki to strike and attack enemy surprises? Honest, what do you mean you can't cut it unless you name it straight from the front?

When I heard that, Satsuki laughed bitterly and shook her head (wearing it).

"Exactly there, I'll fold it in me. Some samurai say that's cowardice. Because I want to be a samurai to help my people more than that."

"Hmm... right"

I couldn't figure out the difference between killing a powerless subject, but I decided not to mention it.

Including that, because she seemed to be in the middle of a grip.

"I can't hear footsteps right around the corner. It's probably a pretty deep cave."

I'm done listening, Mi, and I'm reporting the results.

Then she took the burning dust box and lantern from the backpack she was carrying and started the fire in a familiar motion to transfer the fire to the lantern.

In the meantime, I asked Mi to transfer the fire by taking the potatoes out of my luggage.

Then the Beastman girl leans her neck wonderfully.

"Can you magically create lights or something?

"It's possible, but if you use magic, you consume as much magic (mana) in your body as you do. It's not a big consumption if it's about the magic of light, but if there's a low-cost alternative, I think we should use it."

"Nyah, I see"

Did Mi convince you, he lit my potatoes too.

Note that the consumed magic vegetables (mana) are slowly recovered by taking rest and recuperation.

Sleep, especially in comfortable sleep environments, is most efficient and is known to tend to be fully fast with about six to eight hours of sleep, even from the condition of running out of magic (mana) to its limits.

The limit amount of magic (mana) that you can keep in your body varies from individual to individual, but as a result of my college training, I make a body that can store quite a lot of magic (mana) compared to my regular person, and the recovery of magic (mana) during resting is significantly better than that of my regular person.

But that being said, if you are wasting it without thinking, the magic (mana) in your body will eventually run out.

Saving and managing magic vegetables (mana) can be said to be an important ability for all magicians (mages).

"But, William. How can you prepare more potatoes when Mi has prepared the lights?

Meanwhile, Cyril, the cleric girl, has hit me with such frank questions.

"It's dark in the cave, so I know you need a light. What's the point of having a potato on top of that?"

That was not an indication that it was futile, but seemed to be a statement as a sign of willingness to learn.

That attitude, which explores whether there may also be any intention of seemingly futile things, is preferable as the attitude to be taken by the wise.

I was looking at this cleric girl named Cyril with a high intelligence scale.

"Oh. I've read this in the past, and it's going to be a take-away from a book written by an adventurer -- I don't know what kind of incident I'm going to be in during an adventure. By contrast, the loss of lights in the dark can be fatal for us human adventurers. To spread the risk, we should keep more than one light. And if you have a single sparkling potato, it will also help to burn down a little obstacle such as a spider's nest"

"... I see. You're confused with the wisdom of past adventurers. ─ ─ Magician (Mage) is just a big guy, and I thought he was making fun of adventurer wisdom from the rules of thumb, but you don't seem to be."

As much as I appreciated her personality, it looks like she was looking at mine over there.

And I have the impression that I say things a little too quickly, but personally, I don't hate these people.

"If you imitate the way Satsuki said it earlier, some magicians (Maggie) would be like that. But I believe that such fools die first. I really want to spare you a wasted premature death."

When I give it back, the priest girl laughs.

"William, you're a funny guy."

I didn't mean to tell you a joke.

"The sense of the joke I meant to say is devastating"

Mi brought tea in from the side.

"Really?

"Yes."

They seemed terrible to say.

I would prefer not to make such challenging remarks, if possible.

"Nah, let's go. The sun's going down."

In the sky beyond where Satsuki says so, the sun was actually going down.

We decided to finish the chat and switch our heads to cave exploration.
