The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life

after school.

Students will usually look forward to this time of the day.

For students, theres a lot one can do at this time, such as studying.

Its the opposite for me.

After getting the teleport earrings and the snake bone ring, my range of actions have increased.

Soul magic interferes with the underworld, so against undead its highly effective, especially if they have an ethereal body.

(TN: Oh I guess he kept it, I wonder what the gift was then.)

Monsters of this kind are hard to beat with normal attacks, but if you use Soul magic its easy to beat them, and for their level they give a large amount of experience too.

Theres not that many of them so hunting is limited, but Im lucky that theres a low level hunting ground around here.

Good thing I remembered the place.

I immediately left for the suburbs outside the city, and teleported to a rock I could see in the distance.

Wow, I covered quite a bit of ground.

This sure is a useful spell.

Bluezels were popping out of the ground, but I ignored them.

Teleport, teleport

I forced my body through the scenery.

While steadily advancing, the sky suddenly became overcast and dark.

I guess Im close to my destination.

Soon, I could see an old building in the corner of my eyes.

There.

Before I teleported to the said building though, I started meditating.

I used up quite a bit of magic to get here.

The churchs framework was quite decayed.

In the old days it was also an orphanage, there used to be a lot of children here, but now nobody remains, no one comes here even if they want to visit a church.

With no one living here, the patrons boundaries that had defended the church eventually decayed, and turned this place into a dungeon.

Its a place for the dead to roam now.

When I was still a beginner mage, I came here with my master.

I teleported over to the church because my magic had recovered.

The church was decayed.

The trees only held crows and no leaves, while black clouds hung over the sky.

The undead prefer dark places, so the places they gather become dark, its either that, or they gather there because the area was already dark.

Its a chicken-or-the-egg question.

Either is fine though.

While I was thinking of stupid stuff like that, things that looked like people started crawling out of the ground.

Zombies.

When the magic of a dungeon gathers inside of a human corpse, it turns into a monster and starts to attack people.

and there were three of them.

*noro noro* Zombies wont stop moving until theyre close enough to attack, but theyre too slow.

I imagined shooting white balls while using the three zombies as targets.

A small white light enveloped the snake bone ring, then suddenly light bullets started shooting out of my palm, blowing away the three zombies.

In one hit, thats a little disappointing.

Soul magic has a great magic consumption rate.

Many of its higher tier spells really strain a magicians magic power.

White ball, unlike the other ball spells is capable of purifying its targets.

Okay lets continue.

It was hard not to laugh, the zombies became lumps in an instant from my spells.

Hmm~ ~

In the eerie atmosphere of the cemetery, I walked while humming.

There were a lot of zombies in the back. I think about twenty or so.

While groaning, they limped lazily towards me.

Here I come!

I held up my hand towards the zombies, and imagined the white ball.

In the next moment dozens of white lights shot towards the zombies, the ones that became tattered and full of holes slowly returned to the earth.

At the same time.

Suddenly, I could feel a rising force.

My level went up.

I defeated twenty zombies worth a lot of experience.

Forget one zombie, I just defeated twenty.

Of course itd go up.

To deliberately gather the enemy, I implemented a tactic that would gather them all in a line called a train. Its a tactic that helps me consume less magical power.

However if you do it poorly, youll end up gathering too much and end up fighting an entire horde, so its not recommended for amateurs. Considering the risks, and that their movement is slow, its easy to use this on the stupid zombies.

I walked around obliterating hordes of zombies, more spawned almost right after.

According to the presences, there was an uncountable number of enemies.

Again, this is a really good hunting ground.

I wonder how many hours have passed.

Before I noticed it became fun mid-way.

This is a bad habit of mine that been going on since the old days.

It wouldve been better to get rid of it, but I wouldnt have gotten to where I was before without this habit.

By the way, moms also familiar with this habit, so she wont get mad if Im only a little late.

(TN: I think it refers to how his mom knows that he loses himself when playing and thats why hes always late coming home. She doesnt know hes fighting monsters.)

I have to go home soon.

As I exited the church, I obliterated the zombie hordes that come up with white ball.

I teleported many times to get back from the church, and by the time I got home it was starting to get dark.

I didnt get a scolding because I was back right before dinner was about to be ready.

Immediately after I went straight to my room and checked my progress with scout scope.

Zeph Einstein

Level 10

RedMagic level: 6/62

BlueMagic level: 6/87

GreenMagic level: 10/99

SkyMagic level: 8/89

Soul Magic level: 9/97

Looks like a good balance.

Im going to continue hunting at the rotting church for a while.

Even outside of Soul magic, I want to be able to beat zombies with one blow.

Perhaps it would work if I used intermediate spells.

As my magic power grows to a higher levels, it becomes more difficult to raise.

Maybe the actual requirements for growth could be shown through scout scope when its proficiency rises.

Green and Sky should have already been used twice as much as the other systems, but the difference isnt that big.

Even though its my first day using it, my Soul magic has already caught up to the rest.

Well Ididdefeat a huge number of zombies that give plenty of experience, so its only natural its like that right?

Ill train all the systems to a certain extent, ordinary mages usually only focus on one system intensely, but in the life I want to grow all my systems to their limits.

After making more plans for training I went to bed for the night.
