Having witnessed Lefiya's "Explosion Magic," Isagi finally understood why Goddess Astrea had forbidden her from using it casually—
The seawater was vanishing.
Under the spring sun, the azure sea surface seed to be missing a massive chunk, replaced by a gigantic void floating with multicolored specks of magical light.
Subsequently, earth-shattering waves rose up, spreading out in all directions. Even the layers of clouds in the sky were shaken open by the strike just now, revealing the boundless azure sky behind them.
"Badass."
Isagi could only offer such an evaluation.
Then, he watched as the Elf girl went limp, lying down amidst the sandy beach with an expression of utter satisfaction.
This was a deserted island.
Located outside the port city of len, it took about three or four hours to reach by ship.
Coming here was Isagi's idea.
As everyone's Levels increased, wanting to practice without restraint beca troubleso within the city. One either had to be like the Freya Familia, buying a massive piece of land for a Familia headquarters and building it like a fortress to thrash about inside freely.
Or be like the Loki Familia, trying to go into the Dungeon every ti.
Just like in the past.
Between the unmanned city walls, or in the fields and small groves outside the city, it was a bit inconvenient. Even going to the fortress ruins far from the city was the sa.
So, thinking about the future, Isagi thought they might as well co out to sea. On this deserted island far from the port city, it wouldn't matter what they did.
It was also like a vacation.
The deserted island had no inhabitants to begin with. Aside from large areas of sandy beaches, there were only patches of lush woodland.
It was said there was nothing unusual about it. After all, it was very close to len. These small islands scattered in the sea had long been explored by many ships and sailors over the years.
Originally, it was said there were plans to develop so of the islands into resort areas or the like.
But because there were monsters in the sea, plus the fact that there were many smugglers of various kinds around len itself, the shipping routes weren't actually considered very safe. Thus, the developnt work was rely ntioned and never continued.
Nowadays.
This place had long beco a place that no one managed at all.
Isagi originally thought buying the small island would cost so money, but it turned out it wasn't needed at all.
The sea breeze blew against their faces, bringing a sowhat scorching salty scent. Sumr was arriving soon; this was probably why the Goddesses and young girls all raised both hands in approval of his suggestion to co to the deserted island and treat it as a "Familia Headquarters."
In the sumr, a vacation by the seaside, a barbecue and alcohol party, fireworks—all in one go. Swimsuit episodes and the like; classics never go out of style.
Isagi accompanied Lefiya, resting together on the beach for a while. The boundless azure sea glittered under the afternoon sun. The Elf girl lying amidst the golden gravel had a face full of a certain "blissful" expression. He didn't know if this fellow had been holding it in for too long recently.
Isagi even had the illusion that he might have truly corrupted Lefiya. She wasn't like this before. Could it be that shooting everything out in a single go was really that pleasurable?
Hmm—
It seed it really was.
Isagi suddenly found it hard to say.
Moreover, for Lefiya, the "Explosion Magic" she just used should have been even more pleasurable than any previous ti.
Because she had used the brand new [First-Class Armant].
At this mont, the young girl was wearing a magnificent magic conductress dress that was silver-white, looking as if it were spreading wings.
Within it, sky-blue magic stones shone brilliantly. Right in the center of her neckline, above that swelling, now very conspicuous magnificence, they were embedded deep within like so kind of core.
And as the magic lines extending from it traversed her whole body, they turned into sky-blue, gorgeous patterns resembling starlight.
The dress was simply magnificent to the extre, making the Elf girl unable to put it down from the first mont she saw it.
[Starry Wings].
A magic conductress dress completely hand-forged by Cecil, incorporating the [Mystery] Developnt Ability the girl possessed. It was also Lefiya's [First-Class Armant].
For Mages.
Whether it was traditional magic staves or magic conductress dresses, their functions were actually very "simple and crude."
[Strengthen the power and stability of Magic];
[Strengthen the recovery of Mind or lower its consumption];
That was it.
And because of the scarcity of "materials," all equipnt related to Magic went to two extres depending on whether it had magic stones or not.
For example, the [Moonveil] Isagi obtained previously.
Although it was a long blade, the majority of the blade body was actually cast using ground magic stones, so it was very, very fragile. It couldn't be used to slash people or monsters at all.
But because of this, it had extrely good magic adaptability, and could even directly condense the magic power within his body into "Non-Attribute Magic" to slash out.
Lefiya's magic conductress dress also had similar abilities.
Not only did it have the most basic functions of "enhancing magic power" and "lowering Mind consumption and strengthening recovery";
Aside from that.
It also included "the ability to store a large amount of magic power beforehand"—based on the mysterious item "Battery" capable of storing magic power that he had asked Miss Asfi to make before—the massive azure "Core" on the girl's chest stored a considerable amount of magic power.
As well as.
"Able to perform simple shaping and release it at any ti"—this was also a function created based on his own [Moonveil]. It could directly release the stored magic power or her own magic power, which could be regarded as chantless attack magic.
And finally, it was also equipped with a considerable number of "Magic Swords"—this was a unique function of Lefiya's First-Class Armant, [Starry Wings].
Cecil's forging skills for Magic Swords were very skilled.
Earlier, after upgrading to Level 2, she had intermittently forged quite a few Magic Swords and left them there. But since he didn't use them and she didn't use them, just leaving them there wasn't a solution.
So this ti, when crafting Lefiya's First-Class Armant, she had a sudden inspiration and integrated the Magic Swords into it.
The so-called Magic Sword.
In Isagi's view, was just like the "firearms" of this world.
Ordinary people could use them too. They could instantaneously unleash magical attacks with considerable power, but there was a usage limit. Wasn't that just a "pistol" or sothing of the sort in a certain sense?
This thing could be considered a secret weapon kept at the bottom of the chest for most adventurers.
Familia expeditions like those of Loki and Freya would also treat them as very important "consumables." After all, attacks that could be launched without consuming Mind and Stamina were truly essential items in ergencies.
And at this mont, those Magic Swords loaded on Lefiya's waist, arms, back, and even chest, which had undergone special design to fit perfectly and were placed there like "feather wing" decorations.
They also had special abilities.
Aside from being able to use the magic power stored in the magic conductress dress itself to enhance their power after activation.
Also, because the Magic inherent to the Magic Swords was carefully selected by Cecil, there existed a certain "coordination."
Plus, Lefiya herself could utilize Mind to manipulate Magic to perform a certain degree of "deformation," making their utility even richer.
Well.
Isagi had only heard Cecil say so; he hadn't seen the actual effects yet.
On the way to the deserted island, the girl had chattered on and on, talking to Lefiya for a long, long ti, seeming as if she was going to talk the Elf girl into a faint.
However, there was no doubt.
After wearing this brand new magic conductress dress [Starry Wings], leaving aside other things, just that "Explosion Magic" released by draining all her magic power seed to be several tis stronger than before—
Quite so ti passed.
The circular void ford in the sea, thoroughly evaporated by magic power, still existed. It was unknown if it was because the dissipating magic power hadn't completely vanished yet, or due to so more complex reasons.
It was indeed too terrifying. However, recalling Riveria's "erald giant light wave."
Isagi recalled the feeling from that ti and still felt that compared to it, Lefiya's "Explosion Magic" right now still had a gap. Not just in terms of magic power, but also...
It was too rough.
After all, the Elf girl was currently just spewing out all her magic power in one breath.
There was definitely a lot of waste in the process. More precise manipulation was needed, but that would take ti to slowly adapt to and master.
Amidst his thoughts.
He skillfully carried Lefiya, who was limp on the beach, onto his back.
Unknowingly, this fellow had fallen asleep again. In the distance, the Goddesses had already set up a simple camp—mainly tents. At the sa ti, it seed Cecil and the others were preparing to cut wood to build a wooden cabin.
It was simply like playing so "Survival Ga."
Tiona had even run into the sea to catch fish; he wondered how her harvest was.
And what Isagi found most incomprehensible.
Was that Ryuu and Ais were actually "training."
Hah?!
This trip to the deserted island was actually just for everyone in the Astrea Familia—the Goddess, himself, along with Cecil, Lefiya, Ryuu-senpai, and Tiona.
Aside from them, there was also Goddess Deter and Ais.
There weren't actually many people.
Originally, the plan was to call Goddess Artemis and the others, as well as Lunor and Chloe who worked at the shop.
The burger shop was closed these days so everyone could rest together, but in the end, for so unknown reason, it was "cancelled."
Isagi had guessed sothing.
It was a vacation, after all.
Perhaps both Astrea and Deter felt that "fewer people would be better."
He could understand the two Goddesses' well-intentioned efforts.
Not only that, Ryuu-senpai probably thought the sa way, perhaps even feeling that Ais's arrival was a bit "superfluous."
But the Sword Princess had been a bit "clingy" to him recently.
Isagi could feel it.
Ever since he defeated the [Pale King] in the Dungeon last ti, the golden-haired girl had been running over to his side constantly, saying she wanted to figure out what the "Martial Arts" he spoke of ant.
Of course, Isagi didn't know either.
At that ti, he was in the "Asura" state. And in the city, there weren't that many monsters for him to kill, so he simply couldn't accumulate Asura Value, and naturally couldn't enter that state again.
And it was indeed hard to describe. That was a state difficult to describe with language; one could only feel it—
Perhaps.
Letting Ais fight with him after he turned into an "Asura" would be a better thod.
Isagi felt this way.
A thousand words were not as good as just coming over and sparring.
And not just Ais; Ryuu-senpai seed to be delving into this recently as well. The Elf girl, who had already gained so insight before, seed to have also started pursuing matters of technique.
So, the two of them were "cultivating" together at this mont...
Ryuu and Ais sat upright on a large rock by the seaside.
The wind blew gently, bringing the cold and humid scent of seawater. Both of them were specially wearing that kind of pure white "training uniform." If not for the fact that they couldn't find a waterfall or sothing on the deserted island, Isagi would have thought they were going to sit under one and withstand the water flow while ditating.
This was Ryuu-senpai's idea. Reportedly, it was a "cultivation thod" learned from her friend Kaguya, who ca from the Far East.
That must be very authentic.
Only, it was completely useless—
Ais, who was on the side, mimicked her, closing her eyes, but was completely unable to experience what that so-called "calming the heart" ant.
Ryuu next to her was rely imitating what Kaguya had said; she didn't understand what this was either.
The Elf girl had only learned how to use a long blade from her for a period of ti before, which was also why she was accustod to using a wooden sword.
But that was all.
After all, she was a Magic Swordswoman. Compared to lee techniques, Ryuu's skill in Magic was obviously higher. She was completely ignorant about those "Martial Arts" and "Swordsmanship" Kaguya spoke of.
[Gave up].
After persisting for half the afternoon, the two dimwitted fellows returned to the camp sowhat discouraged.
In the end, they accepted Isagi's proposal.
"Co challenge ."
The young man spoke thus, beckoning to Ais and Ryuu. Adding Tiona to the mix, he prepared to start a "Battle Royale" on the deserted island.
