A Court Magician, Who Was Focused On Supportive Magic Because His Allies Were Too Weak, Aims To Become The Strongest After Being Banished - Chapter 14
—According to him, the floor boss of the 64th layer is a “dead undead”.
Not only does it avoid physical attacks, but it also has a high probability of avoiding magical attacks, he also said that the “weakening magic debuff” known as a type of auxiliary magic was almost impossible to use. In a circle, Jorja and Ornest also sit down in their chairs and tell me so and puts what appears to be the core on the desk.
And then,
“So, I think the 64th layer of ‘tank kill’ will probably be similar to the 68th layer.”
Jorha explained the details of the dungeon to me, perhaps judging that an elated Ornest would be full of holes in the explanation.
The 68th layer is the highest layer that the four of us beat when we were at the Academy of Magic. I guess he’s referring to that time.
“I don’t want to be a liability, but the nature of the floor bosses means I’ll definitely be relying on Alec first.”
Jorha specializes in auxiliary magic.
Clasia is a magic specialist in recovery.
Ornest is a melee attack specialist.
And I’m the offensive magician.
That’s why Jorha points out that if the floor boss is the opponent this time, he’ll be relying on me for compatibility.
“So, Ornest, as I said, it’s up to Alec to decide whether or not to head to layer 64. If you’re going to fight the floor bosses this time, it’s definitely Alec who has the heavy burden.”
…… This exchange also made me feel quite nostalgic.
As it turned out, we were the ones who had the biggest burden to decide whether or not to move on to the next level.
If it’s going to be a …… endurance battle, then Clasia.
If melee attacks are effective, Ornest will do. If a weakening magic debuff is essential, Jorha will do it. That’s about it.
“Aside from the concern that my arm might be a little off, everything’s fine.”
“What are you talking about?
I really meant it when I said it, but Ornest tried to deny it.
If you say something like that, the old man who was fighting you rather seriously will cry.
It was not long before he added a few more words.
“Well, now that we’ve done the bare minimum, let’s get a move on before the old guys get there first.”
Ornest stands up vigorously.
From his point of view, it was probably just a casual remark, but for Clasia, it was unexpected.
“…… Perhaps the Guildmaster is also heading to layer 64?”
“Yeah. We’re going with two parties this time. The other side is a temporary party consisting of the guild master, the deputy guild master, Christa and another attacker who is the leader of the A rank party. And then there’s us.”
Jorja added us as if we were a bonus, but I guess he was right and we were a bonus.
I was actually going to say no, but for some reason, the guild master gave me permission on the condition that Alec nodded.
Jorha smiled bitterly at him.
“If it were the three of us without Alec, I wouldn’t have allowed it even if it meant dying, but considering our track record at the Academy of Magic, it’s not too reckless to have all four of us.”
I guess that’s what they actually said.
Mimicking Leviel’s tone, Ornest told me why the permission was granted.
“And I’ve already applied for the party, thinking that Alec would definitely ‘go’. Now the ‘Lasting Period of the Endless Days’ is back in full swing.”
He chuckled.
He looked happy and joyful.
Ornest’s dazzling smile, as if he had been waiting for that day to come, reflected in my vision.
“And now the legend continues…urbanization”
With an expression of joy on his face, he spoke words that were familiar to us.
“…… You bring up an old word again.”
Jorha was the first one to react to those words.
Magic Academy Times.
Someone mentioned that our party had reached the highest level of the King’s Landing dungeon by the students of the Academy of Magic at the time, back in our first year.
—- You guys, you’ve built a legend,” he said.
That’s how it started.
Before I knew it, not only my classmates but even the teachers were calling our party a legend.
In the end, the legend eventually trudged on to the 68th layer, so I think it’s really well called a legend.
And Ornest was bringing up memories of that time as if he had been waiting for them.
“Let’s continue the legend,” he said.
So I couldn’t help but smile.
“That’s obvious. The legend isn’t over yet. The dungeon in the royal capital is just the beginning of the story. In fact, the three of us have been diving for a while to continue where we left off.”
Reflexively.
Jorha denied Ornest’s statement at a time that could only be described as such, and Clasia followed suit.
I felt a little sorry for Ornest, who shouted, “Are you kidding me?”
“Maybe someday, the four of us can dive a dungeon together again. That’s all I was thinking about.”
That’s why I don’t think like Ornest, a man of ambition and self-esteem, Jorja said. And Clasia
He wanted to make a name for himself in the world, to build a legend like he did at the Academy of Magic. Although he had made a big plan without knowing it, it seemed to be nothing more than Ornest walking around on his own.
“Pfft, pfft.”
“Hey! Don’t you dare laugh!
When I blurted out my disagreement, Ornest stared at me and got very angry.
“…… Well, what the hell. Sorry to keep you waiting.”
Although we had different ideas, the three of us were still the same. I never dreamed that the three of us had been working together on the dungeon for four years, waiting for each other. So, I apologize. I’m sorry for making you wait.
“…… We only waited because we liked it. So don’t apologize for that every time.”
Before coming to Fiesel.
And after I came to Fiesel.
Was it really okay for me to take Jorha’s hand that was extended to me at that time?
I’ve often wondered that, but —- I’ll put that thought to rest.
…… I knew that Ornest would definitely beat me up one day if I thought that way.
So I decided to forcefully shake it off.
“You’re the only one who can be the fourth person in this party. The fourth person in this party can only be you. So don’t worry about it.”
Don’t give me that sour look.
…I didn’t know if he was trying to see through me or not, but somehow, I felt like he was telling me that.
He’s still sharp in the weirdest ways.
If you can’t compete with them, you can’t help but feel that way.
“That’s what I’m talking about. Let’s do it. “So let’s do it. 64 layers of tank killing! Not a bad way to start the new year for us!!”
Raising his voice.
He spits it out with a big smile on his face, as if he doesn’t care about the people around him.
“This time, it’s not just a tiny place like the Academy of Magic. It’s the world. Let’s make our name known to the world.”
This is a stepping stone to that.
So, he says that the deepest level is just a stepping stone. That’s why, whether it’s the 64th layer or a place where S-rank party members are dying, it’s nothing to be afraid of.
It’s just like Ornest, who is irreverent, arrogant, and utterly confident.
“I’m going to knock your balls off, ‘Lasting Periods of Endless Days’.”
