Chapter 4 [Acquisition of Magic Skill. Creation Magic is Really Convenient.]

Honestly, in order to learn the magic skill, I practiced day after day, since I was uneasy about the fireball staff being my only method of attack.

Because of that, I put on mage equipment created through [Creation Magic], and decided to experiment with a new attack method.

“—-<<Creation>>. Skill Orb [Staff Martial Arts]!”

300 mana was consumed and a skill orb was created.

When I reincarnated into a different world, there were different skill groups that I could choose from.

Those skills could be obtained by training even in this world, but in my case, I can create an item that allows me to obtain skills through [Creation Magic].

However, it seems like [Creation Magic] can’t create any cheat skills.

For example, the mana necessary to create a typical skill at the lowest level is 300.

To create a rarer, higher level skill orb, it seems greater mana is needed.

To be specific, it increases by raising a number to a power.

The mana necessary for a level 2 skill would by 300 to the 2nd power–90,000, and level 3 skill would be 300 to the 3rd power, in other words 27,000,000.

Therefore, I obtained a level 1 skill and become stronger.

“Alright, let’s use the skill orb. I wonder if I can obtain staff martial arts with this?”

When I swung the staff on hand, I felt like my speed and power went up slightly.

“My power has gone up, but in terms of methods to attack, I’d better create a magic skill rather than [Staff Martial Arts].”

The me right now is a witch.

Using physical strikes… I’ll stop such dangerous actions.

Therefore, I decided to learn [Fire Magic] through the skill orb part way instead of trying to learn it myself.

I’ve done my best until now, but I thought it’d be better efficiency to practice after learning it with a skill orb than to consume mana countless times and train over and over.

“For the time being—-<<Creation>>. Skill Orb [Fire Magic]!”

Thus, I obtained the [Fire Magic] skill, became able to shoot magic with my own power.

As a result, I discovered there was a difference between the same fireball fired with my own magic and firing it with the fireball staff.

“I can customize my own magic.”

For example, if I load tons of mana, there’s the merit of the range and power going up, but there’s also the risk of one’s concentration while controlling the magic falling or making a mistake.

However, the fireball staff has its power and output fixed.

“[Fireball Staff], I guess you’re being relieved now? Thanks for everything up until now.”

It was the tool that supported me in this different world survival lifestyle.

There’s still a few uses left, so I stowed it away carefully inside the magic bag and fired my fireball randomly at the plain’s vacant land until evening after that.

Several days passed after that, other than fire magic, I learned water, earth and wind–the great four elements–and light and dark magic skills, and integrated all of them.

“Umm…… [Origin Magic]?”

Well, it’s probably a skill that puts all the six attributes together.

Because the skill was level 1, I couldn’t use very strong magic, but rather than having my skills lined up in a row crudely, it feels better like this.

However, I think it’s great that I became able to use various derivations of the six attribute magics after learning [Origin Magic].

Especially magic like [Soil Processing] and [Plant Processing], the mana consumption is high, but it helped make living here at this temporary base’s surroundings much easier.
