110 What was gained from defeating the Fire Dragon

Then, body specialist!

[Ah. A tedious task awaits.]

Yes, handle the scale removal.

I’ll delegate the task of removing scales from the Fire Dragon and eel to the body specialist.

In the meantime, I’ll examine the performance of the title I’ve acquired.

『Dragon Slayer: Acquired Skill "Life LV1", "Dragon Power LV1": Requirement: Defeat a set number of dragon species: Effect: Slight increase in damage against dragons and dragon-kind: Description: Title awarded to those who have slain numerous dragon species』

『Bringer of Fear: Acquired Skill "Intimidation LV1", "Deviant Attack LV1": Requirement: Cause another to reach a certain proficiency level in Fear Resistance: Effect: Inflicts Deviant attribute "Fear" upon those who see the user: Description: Title awarded to the embodiment of fear』

Ugh!

Dragon Slayer is fine, but the effect of Bringer of Fear is absurd!

So, this means just looking at me causes fear, right?

That’s not good!

It might work against enemies, but making everyone else afraid too—doesn’t that backfire?

And unlike a skill, this can’t be turned on or off, can it?

Ugh.

If I show up to something like a catfish or another weak monster, won’t they just run away the moment they see me?

That’s definitely possible.

Well, it’s done now. Can’t change it.

Better to focus on the skills instead.

I’ve seen the skill list before, but I don’t remember the effects.

Hmm.

This terrible memory.

Maybe I should’ve taken a memory skill.

Oh well.

『Dragon Power: Temporarily gain dragon power』

Huh?

Not sure what this does.

Looks like an active skill. Let me try activating it.

Oh?

After activating it, my stats went up a little.

MP and SP both decreased.

A skill that boosts stats by consuming MP and SP.

Unlike Martial Combat and Qi Combat, it appears to raise magical stats as well.

Level one, so the increase isn't significant, but if kept active and leveled up over time, it might become substantial.

Even with the叠加 of Martial and Qi Combat, the effect is already considerable. Adding draconic power to that...

Excellent.

That’s good.

"Intimidation: Applies the 'Fear' attribute to surroundings."

And you too.

This one seems toggleable, unlike the title effect. If both are stacked, even ordinary monsters might cower and flee at the sight of me.

Ah, the title effect is already irreversible. Might as well keep this one active permanently.

No apparent cost either.

[Heretic Attack: Attaches heretic attribute "Soul Sever" to attack]

Ah, this one's bad.

[Heretic Attribute "Soul Sever": Attribute that directly destroys the soul]

This isn't just mental assault anymore!

Unbelievable.

I'll test this one later.

Yeah.

Dragon Killer has simply been buffed.

Those who instill fear have a delicate balance of positive and negative effects.

It's fine, I suppose. But still, it's problematic.

Well, titles are about this level, I guess.

Now, the long-awaited moment—level up, so I've gained skill points.

And since it jumped up all at once, the amount is substantial.

Perfect. I can now reach the skill I've been seeking.

Hehe.

Never thought I'd get this soon.

[Space Magic (500): Magic that manipulates space]

This one. This is it.

Space Magic—standard cheat code, as always.

The skill is level one upon acquisition, so it won't perform as expected immediately. However, I have the benefit of the title 'Master of Wisdom,' which accelerates the leveling of magic-based skills.

With effort, the level should rise quickly.

Fufufu.

What I expect from this spatial magic.

Teleportation—precisely that.

Of course, such magic exists.

Spatial magic means teleportation, item boxes, and vacation estates in alternate dimensions.

An item box capable of storing objects in another dimension might exist, but I have no habit of carrying items, so I likely won’t need one.

A vacation estate would be desirable, but it’s probably at a high level—something far off for now.

Teleportation.

A splendid magic that allows instantaneous movement across distances.

With this, I won’t need to struggle through this vast middle tier step by step!

Thanks to Lady Sophia, the upper tier map is available!

If linked with the map, teleportation to the upper tier is certain!

Thus, the heavenly voice (temporary)!

Spatial magic, please!

[Current skill points: 500.

Skill 'Spatial Magic Level 1' can be acquired using 500 skill points.

Acquire?]

Yes!

[Acquired 'Spatial Magic Level 1'. Remaining skill points: 0.]

Good.

Testing the spell available at Level 1 immediately.

Magic operator!

{Aiai-sa~}

Magic operator activates Spatial Magic Level 1.

The name of the Level 1 spell is "Coordinate Designation."

A green wireframe cube appears.

The magic operator enlarges it, reshapes it, moves it left and right.

It does not behave as matter—it sinks smoothly through magma, through the ground.

Recalls the selection tool on a computer.

That’s probably it.

{This is just a magic that specifies space.}

What’s it for?

{Probably just preparation for magic levels two and above?}

That’s right.

So it’s the same type as Shadow Magic—useless until level increases.

{Yeah.}

Hmm.

Well, I didn’t expect to use it in combat right away. The fact that I’ve acquired it is what matters.

We’ll keep raising the level from here.

So magic specialist.

{This one over the others.}

Yeah.

Incidentally, how many spells can I cast simultaneously right now?

{Depends on the magic. But coordinate targeting isn’t too taxing. I think I could handle two more simple spells at once.}

Got it.

Practice skill gain during movement—within limits.

{Yes, sir.}

Body specialist still struggling with the scales.

Well, three eels, and a fire dragon roughly twice their size.

The consumption of the fire dragon will take a little longer.

Yet, a horde led by a fire dragon of such strength—defeating it so easily, indeed.

Am I stronger than I thought?

Fufufu.

Could this one end up claiming the title of Demon King in the future?

Titles that bring fear also suit her quite well.

I am the Spider King!

Nonsense.

At that time, I did not know.

Becoming the Demon King, said in jest.

The meaning of that.
