Automata walked with Leif for half a day (taking breaks and meals in between as Leif got tired or hungry), and visited the city of Bordeaux again.

According to what Leif told me on the way, it seems that if you take a carriage from the city of Bordeaux, you can reach the royal capital of this country in about 10 days.

He’s a knowledgeable guy for a slave.

Indeed, it was a good purchase.

By the way, he said he learned this information when his previous master took him around.

The way Leif’s eyes clouded over when he told that story was quite striking.

It seems he has some grudge against his previous master.

Well, it doesn’t matter.

ㅤ

Anyway, 

guided by Leif, Automata arrived at a place like a carriage stop where carriages depart.

From there, he boarded a carriage to the royal capital (accurately, to a town that serves as a relay point), and paid the fare to the coachman.

All these procedures were done by Leif.

I’m not familiar with the common sense of this world, so it’s honestly helpful.

And I think Leif probably understands that and is doing it for me.

Even if he doesn’t know that I’m from another world, he must have noticed from the conversation with the Demon Lord yesterday that I’m not a normal human.

The fact that I asked Leif about the common sense of this world is probably interpreted as something like, I didn’t know about human affairs because I’m a non-human.

Well, that’s fine.

It’s convenient.

Let’s keep him thinking that way.

ㅤ

While I was thinking about such things, a number of people who seemed to be the capacity got on the carriage, and it departed.

It’s not as crowded as a packed train, but it’s quite crowded.

If it were the main body, I definitely wouldn’t want to go.

I can see that I would be sexually harassed.

Even while I’m fed up with it through the monitor, the carriage is moving with a clatter.

As expected, in this typical fantasy world, with a civilization level of about medieval Europe, the carriages of this world sway.

After all, unlike Japan, the roads are not paved with concrete.

For now, the highway seems to be paved, but it’s far from perfect, so it sways a lot.

If I look at the monitor from the Automata’s point of view, I feel like I’m going to get sick.

ㅤ

“Wake me up if something happens.”

“Huh? W, Wait?! Master?!”

ㅤ

I didn’t like that, so after telling Leif, who I had seated next to me, I put the Automata in a position as if it were sleeping and turned off the monitor from the Automata’s point of view.

I left the monitor from the bird’s eye view, so there should be no major problems.

Just in case, I’ll set it to sound an alarm if something abnormal happens.

ㅤ

And, it will take several days for this carriage to reach the relay point town.

During that time, the Automata will just be swaying in the carriage, and the time I need to operate will be greatly reduced.

ㅤ

So, I decided to use this free time to learn magic.

ㅤ

I open the list of items available for DP, and think while looking at the display of various magic books there.

For now, the first magic book I read will be the [Beginner’s Magic Book].

Basics are important in everything.

This should be the same in anything, in any world.

ㅤ

That’s fine, but the problem is which attribute of magic to learn.

The mages (or rather, intruders) I’ve seen so far have only learned about two types of magic.

Even the grandpa zombie had three types, and the Demon Lord had four.

This means that rather than learning a lot of magic, it’s stronger to focus on training only the magic you’re good at.

It’s obvious when you think about it, having ten types of magic with skill Lv10 is stronger than having one magic with skill Lv100.

Because the higher the Lv of the magic skill, the more powerful magic you can use.

ㅤ

And, it takes time to train skills and raise skill Lv.

If you thoroughly train one magic, you inevitably won’t have time to train other magic.

That’s why it’s common sense for mages to limit the acquisition of magic skills to one or two, or at most three, and thoroughly train that magic.

I heard such a story from Leif on the way to the city of Bordeaux.

By the way, I also asked about how to acquire true equipment, but I’ll talk about that later.

No matter how you think about it, it’s not something you can learn overnight.

First of all, thanks to Grand Magic-senpai, I’ll start with the magic that seems easy to learn.

ㅤ

Once again, I think about which attribute of magic is good.

I guess recovery magic is a must for now.

When I fight using magic, I will almost certainly be wearing the Living Armor-senpai.

And, the Living Armor-senpai has a recovery method using DP.

If I, the inside, don’t have a recovery method, I won’t be able to effectively use the strongest armor, the Living Armor-senpai.

ㅤ

So, I purchased the [Beginner’s Healing Magic Book] with DP.

I immediately started reading it.

The first page described the effect and chant of what seemed to be the most basic healing magic, 《Heal》.

Well, let’s just give it a try.

ㅤ

“Heal the one ── 《Heal》!”

ㅤ

The moment I recited the incantation, a faint light enveloped me and disappeared.

What just happened was the effect of 《Heal》, a light of healing.

《Heal》 is a magic spell that heals the target that is enveloped in it.

Or rather, according to the magic book, most healing spells seem to work this way.

ㅤ

So, since I’m unharmed and don’t need to recover, the magic didn’t show its effect and disappeared.

But, even if it didn’t have an effect, it was activated, and my MP decreased a little.

Success.

According to Leif, many people stumble at the first step of learning this magic, so you could say that it’s a very good start.

ㅤ

After that, I should be able to acquire magic skills by repeating this.

I have time, so I might spend today mastering healing magic.

That’s what I was thinking, but. . .10 minutes later, my expectations were betrayed.

In a good way.

ㅤ

“No way. . .I’ve already learned it?”

ㅤ

Unexpectedly rapid development.

I acquired the skill of healing magic in just 10 minutes.

It’s definitely added to my status as [Healing Magic: Lv1], so there’s no doubt.

I am too much of a genius.

ㅤ

“Well, I know it’s thanks to Grand Magic-senpai.”

ㅤ

Grand Magic-senpai has the effect of significantly increasing the proficiency of acquiring magic-related skills, in addition to massively increasing my MP and magic power status.

Also, the growth correction of the title of Hero must have worked too.

Once again, being a hero is too much of a cheat.

Indeed, it’s a force to counter that supercreature.

Surely, if there were about 10 fully enhanced heroes, I think we might be able to defeat the Demon Lord.

Of course, it’s bound to be a fierce battle, and I don’t want to cross such a dangerous bridge, so I’ll try to avoid being antagonistic to the Demon Lord as much as possible.

ㅤ

Anyway.

I was able to learn healing magic faster than I expected, but what should I do next?

Even with this cheat-like growth speed, I don’t feel like breaking the premise of only learning about two kinds of magic, so I can only learn one more magic.

Anyway, it’s decided that I’ll learn an attack magic.

It’s impossible not to use my ridiculously high magic power status for attack.

ㅤ

The problem is, what attribute of magic should I learn?

Light magic might work well if I consider the Demon Lord, but that’s already covered by the laser beam in the boss room.

With that trap, I feel like I could do a little damage to the Demon Lord as it is, and if I use a large amount of DP, I can enhance it.

When you’re learning magic, it seems like it would be better to make sure it doesn’t overlap with the attack methods you already have.

I have a feeling, sort of.

ㅤ

For the same reason, fire, wind, and ice are also out.

I don’t use the fire and wind traps much, but they’re set up in the boss room, and ice overlaps with the grandpa zombie.

Also, I didn’t imagine dark magic working against the Demon Lord, so that’s out too.

ㅤ

What’s left are water, earth, and thunder.

Of these three, I guess it’s thunder.

Water seems to have low attack power, and earth seems to be weakened inside a dungeon where the ground can’t be moved.

Fortunately, or I’m not sure if I should say fortunately, the thunder trap was high in DP and I hadn’t touched it because I prioritized strengthening the Living Armor-senpai and the laser beam, so it won’t overlap.

And, if the enemy is paralyzed by lightning and stops moving even for a moment, I can make them prey to the hell of traps in the boss room, so I don’t think the compatibility with the boss room is bad.

ㅤ

Okay, I’ve decided.

I’ll learn thunder magic.

ㅤ

Immediately, I purchased the [Beginner’s Book of Thunder Magic] with DP.

But unlike healing magic, I’m scared to activate it inside my living space, so I created a new, larger training room and started practicing there.

First of all, the most basic thunder magic 《Thunderball,》 just like 《Heal》.

ㅤ

“Pierce my enemy—― 《Thunderball》! What?!”

ㅤ

At that moment, an incredibly massive ball of lightning appeared. It was thrown at the training ground’s wall at an indescribable speed.

If it wasn’t for the indestructible dungeon wall, I think it would have been reduced to ashes.

For this to happen with basic magic, truly the cheat-like magical power of Grand Magic-senpai. . .

I’m glad we didn’t use it in the living area.

ㅤ

“. . .But, this can be promising.”

ㅤ

I grinned.

With this as a start, if I level up, train hard, and acquire true equipment, my magic has the potential to be effective against the Demon Lord.

Hope has surfaced.

Alright!

Let’s do this!

ㅤ

[Um. . .Master. . .Please wake up. . .]

ㅤ

Just as I was enthusiastically practicing magic and my skill level rose to about 5, I heard Leif’s voice, which sounded like it was fading away from the monitor.

I wondered what happened and looked at the monitor, but I couldn’t see anything unusual.

Huh?

But, something feels off about this footage.

ㅤ

When I changed the perspective on the monitor, surprisingly, the Automata was leaning on Leif.

Ah.

It must have changed its posture due to the carriage’s vibration.

I had the Automata sit in the corner seat as a sexual harassment precaution, and as a breakwater, I had Leif sit next to it.

So, if its posture collapsed, it would inevitably lean on Leif.

And Leif is blushing from contact with a female body.

ㅤ

Hmm.

Well, I guess I’ll just leave it be.

Leif won’t do anything weird like other people would.

If he does, I’ll just castrate him.

There’s no actual harm, so I’ll prioritize practicing magic.

ㅤ

And so, I continued to fire magic, and Leif continued to resist his worldly desires.
