Chapter 8 (2/2)

Job: Magician

Attributes: [Light] [Fire] [Water] [Earth] [Wind] [Null]

Skills: Search | Stealth

t.i.tle: [Traveler from another world]

Current status:

I used a lot of MP.

It wasn’t all used up from battle.

My boots were getting worn out, I had thought, so I’d casted some spells on my clothes and boots: [Repair], [Germ, Odor, and Stain Removal], and [Defense and Magic Defense UP].

I casted [Defense Membrane] in case of battle, and I didn’t want to deal with insects so I also used [Insect Repel].

[Search] and [Stealth] aren’t spells but it seems they use MP too.

When it had started getting dark, I casted [Light].

Also, before I entered the house, I casted [Self-Clean]. (TN: Literal: [Dust Removal & Impurity Removal]).

[Light], [Defense Membrane], [Insect Repel], [Search], [Stealth], and other support spells like that are all temporary effects, so I had to remember to recast them every once in a while, and I used some small healing spells too.

I wonder if I have enough mana left to use attack spells.

The status menu doesn’t show level, but it feels like I got a lot of experience today, like I’d leveled up.

My attack spells were getting stronger one by one, and my support spells were also getting more effective and lasting longer.

I’ll be walking all day tomorrow too, but I think I’ll be able to conserve some mana now that I’m more experienced.

“I’m hungry—”

I glanced over at the kitchen and saw a furnace there.

Not that I know how to use one.

Well, I can make fire with magic, but where will I cook?

Catch a bird or rabbit and kill it? Me? No no no no way no way no way.

Up until now I always loved to eat meat and fish.

The stuff I cooked was killed by someone, of course I know that, but that doesn’t mean I can kill those animals myself.

I love to eat KFC but if you asked me to catch a chicken, pluck its feathers, and cook it I’d be like “sorry, I can’t do that”.

…. probably.

If I don’t have anything to eat for a few more days, I think the hunger might be so unbearable that I would kill something to eat.

But right now I definitely can’t. Whether you call me a hypocrite, or a baby, no way means no way. (TN: the word used for hypocrite is translated literally as hypocrite or “wolf in sheep’s clothing”, neither of which makes a whole lot of sense in this context tbh, but I think it’s basically just referencing how she’s saying she can’t kill for food but she just admitted that if she were really hungry she still could).

Well luckily for me, the forest had a lot of trees with fruit on them, and after checking in the status menu that they were safe to eat raw, I had picked some and put them in my item box.

Those apple-like fruits were juicy and delicious.
