23 Episode 23 "First Combined Magic (Proposal and Attempted)".txt (2/2)

I held it up so that Rita, Aine and Leticia could see it.

'This is an inheritance I found in a wizard's mansion. I can't tell you the details, but that person was trying to obtain the magic sword Regina Brass. This is the result of this research.

This was what the Angel Guardian was guarding.

In the end, that wizard was obsessed with the magic sword until the very end.

He spent his whole life and all his energy to complete the magic formula to summon the magic sword.

However, by then, his body was too weak to summon it by himself, apparently.

''I will use this thing to get the magic sword Regina Brass to come to the upper level of the dungeon.

And seal it.

Throw it into the treasure chest in the basement of the mansion and leave it there.

All that's left is to have Cecil seal the entrance to the basement and no one will be able to touch it.

”The magic sword Regina Brass is a 'wandering sword' that moves around looking for its master, right?　Then let's get them to come up to the top floor. It's a pain in the ass to go down to the lowest level.

Cecil will show you how to use the scroll and give you detailed instructions.

''Yes. Well, this 'Demon Sword Summoning Scroll' is to open the 'Gate' and summon the demon sword close to you. A certain demon sword researcher spent his life developing it, but it has quite a strict condition.

Cecil, holding the scroll in both hands, begins to speak with a serious face.

There are only two conditions for summoning a magic sword.

Number one, the place of the summoning must be at the coordinates as close to the demon sword as possible.

Currently, the demon sword is near the lowest level of the dungeon. The best place to perform the ritual is directly above it.

In short, it's like dropping a fishing line and pulling it up.

Number two, the place of the summoning must be full of magic.

It's said that such a place is easier to stabilize the 'gate' for summoning.

Lastly, the magic capacity of the user of the scroll must be sufficient.

In other words, I guess that's how big of a magic it is. Even in games, summoning magic is usually at a high level. This magic is written in an ancient language, so it can only be used on Cecil. So if Cecil has enough magic power...

Therefore, my magic power might not be enough to justify it: ......

I'll be fine. I have an idea about that.

'Oh, well, that's a relief then!　That's Nagi indeed!

Oh, wait. That doesn't make me feel any better.

Letitia held up her hand.

'First of all, even if we don't question the source of that scroll, where's the guarantee that it's real?

I've verified the spell as written.

Cecil answers for me.

''The content was definitely about summoning a magic sword. It's a bit of a special language, so it's something that only a specialist wizard can understand: ......

Well, that's enough for now. Now, let's talk about the dungeon attack.

Coughing up a cough, Leticia scratched her blue hair.

''A room full of magic power right above the coordinates where the magic sword exists...''

On the third level of the dungeon, there are several springs that contain magical hot springs.

Aine followed Letitia's words.

''One of them must have been close to the coordinates of the magic sword that we found out from the detection magic, right above the coordinates of the magic sword. The magic sword's reaction was from around the southeast of the lower level of the dungeon, so .......

''There are three magic fountains on the third level: ...... The one closest to the coordinates of the magic sword is the one at the far end of the southeast, right?

You know what I mean, master.

I learned it when I was shown the material in The Common People's Guild.

I had some dungeon material in the archives.

I'm good at mapping.

When making a game, it's a pain in the ass to call up the dungeon maps for each one, and it's faster to get them all in your head.

So I think we can get to the third level or so ourselves.

What about time constraints?

''You mean we have to finish everything before the Count and the adventurers of the 'Noble Guild' and 'New Commoner Guild' come to the dungeon, right?''

One day, if possible. I'd like to get this done in less than two days, if it's possible.

'The first and second levels were weak monsters, right? I'll take care of this one. I've done something called anti-low level monsters before.

But the third level is a goblin den. How do we clear this place?

Use chanting magic.

I said.

Letitia's ...... and everyone's eyes glazed over.

Ah, I guess I didn't explain it well enough.

I was going to do this when I used the ”Demon Sword Summoning Scroll”. It's a trump card this time.

''To be more specific, it means that me and Cecil will use magic while merging together.

”Nah, nagi-mah!

Ah, I bit him.

For some reason, Cecil, who has turned bright red, is staring at me, shivering.

I didn't mean to say anything so amazing.

I think it happens a lot. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to have the same thing.

In this case, it's a 'magic power combination' because they connect each other's magic power.

''If the two of us combine and share magic power, I think it will reduce the burden on Cecil. I'm going to do the same thing when I use the 'Magic Sword Summoning Scroll'. So when we use magic in the dungeon, me and Cecil will combine.

”Out in the open?

I know that there's a risk. But in the meantime, I'm gonna need some help.

In front of you?

Hopefully, this will speed up our dungeon attack. Hopefully, this will speed up our dungeon crawl. We'll show these demons what our newfound power is.

You dare to show me, show me, show me?

Of course, my magic power doesn't mean much. It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. It's a good idea to make sure you have a good idea of what you're looking for.　If I stand in between and combine Cecil and Aine, our magic supply might be perfect.

'Nya, Nagi-sama! ............ naghihama...... naghihama......... ...ah.

Ah!　Cecil-chan, get a grip!

'With this, I should be able to use the 'Demon Sword Summoning Scroll' as well: ......

Nagi!　Stop it, Nagi, stop it!　Cecil-chan is at his limit!

...... Huh?

The next thing I know, Rita is looking at me with her eyes lifted up and her tail puffed out while she's looking at me.

Cecil is sitting there with a bright red face and his tiny body is shrinking even more.

Letitia is covering her face with her hands in embarrassment.

Aine is the only one who nods normally, but why does she look so curiously kind ...... when she says, ”Aine takes it all in.”?

”...... Huh?　By any chance, though. Isn't there any 'merging magic' in this world?

No?

Rita, you're not taking this to mean something else, are you?

What else do you mean, master? If the master insists on it, I'll cooperate with you, but I think that's too high a bar for Cecil-chan, isn't it, master? It's not so much that he's testing your loyalty and shame by saying such things openly in the presence of others, master. Is that the way to play it, my dear master?

It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

Wait, wait, wait. Let me just calm down and explain.

Combining magic is something I had in my game, a system where two people share their magical powers.

I got the idea when I was using Ability Rebuild.

I thought it might be possible to do the same thing in this world.

No problem. I'm thinking of combining magic for all ages.

No matter how tightly regulated it is, it's forbidden 15.

Properly, it's a level that can be broadcast in the evening room.

I sat back in my chair.

Then I began to speak.

The plan to capture the dungeon at high speed and summon the magic sword.

All about that trump card, the Combination Magic.
