Sponsored Chapter!


“Lucy!” (Makoto)

I jump down the rampart and hold Lucy in my arms.

With Clear Mind, I resolve myself, and clad my body in mana before we crash onto the ground.

“Guh!” (Makoto)

We crashed into the ground after falling for several meters, but…by changing the Mana into Aura, I somehow managed to avoid severe injuries.

“Lucy, are you okay?!” (Makoto)

“Haha…I messed up… Why is it that Griffons always aim for me…” (Lucy)

Lucy laughs weakly.

She had big wounds on her side and arm, and a lot of blood was flowing out.

“Damn it! Wait for a bit!” (Makoto)

I hurriedly pour a healing potion on Lucy.

“Ma…koto…your back…” (Lucy)

I confirmed with RPG Player that a number of Ogres were approaching.

Sword Magic: [Water Dragon Claw].

I cut them all down without looking back.

Argh! At this busy time!

That was the last bit of mana from the Spirits I had.

The bleeding of Lucy stops with the healing potion.

But the wound isn’t completely gone.

I continue pouring healing potions, but anymore healing requires healing magic…

“Takatsuki-kun, Lu-chan, are you okay?!” (Aya)

Sa-san sends the monsters approaching us flying as she comes down.

“The wound is deep, but the blood has stopped!” (Makoto)

What do I do? 

The density of monsters is increasing more and more.

We will eventually be crushed.

“You! Don’t get any closer!” (Aya)

Sa-san is fighting them off on her own, but monsters are approaching from the other places that are not being protected by her as well.

(Spirit Magic…won’t make it in time.) (Makoto)

My own mana is zero.

But I can’t separate from Lucy.

…I grasped my dagger.

I have no choice but to fight with this.

—”Obey me, you lowly beasts!” 

A pleasant voice that doesn’t fit in a battlefield resonated.

The monsters suddenly began fighting each other! 

The one standing between us and the monsters was a girl with beautiful black hair. 

“Princess! What are you doing?!” (Makoto)

Furiae-san, who was supposed to be together with Princess Sofia, was for some reason here.

“Princess Sofia has finished evacuating the residents, and she is currently establishing a refuge to accept the wounded. I can’t use healing magic, and…I had a bad feeling, so I came here.” (Furiae)

“…Thanks. You saved us.” (Makoto)

I am supposed to be the Guardian Knight, yet I was protected by my princess…

Furiae-san is a user of Destiny Magic which can peer into the future.

Then, her ‘bad feeling’ must be correct.

The threat of monsters towards Lucy has been dispelled temporarily thanks to Sa-san and Furiae-san.

Now, we just have to find the timing to return to the ramparts and—while I was thinking that…

“[Sever]!” 

A giant aura blade cuts down several monsters.

A warrior with a thick bladed sword in one hand and armor that has seen the wear of time stands in front of us and the monsters to protect us.

“Makoto, Lucy, are you okay?” 

“Lucas-san! Why did you come down?!” (Makoto)

But once I took a look, I could see that the other swordsmen, brawlers, and close quarter combat adventurers were coming out one after the other.

“We won’t last with just mages. From here on we have to use all of our forces.” (Lucas)

Lucas-san shouts an order to the people around.

“Listen here! From here on, the people that are Gold Rank and higher will be fighting the Ancient Dragon. The Silver Rank and lower will protect the gates together with the soldiers! Mages! When you recover your mana, provide cover fire. The injured ones return inside the walls immediately! We have prepared a path in a size that people can pass!” (Lucas)

“Can you…win against the Ancient Dragon?” (Makoto)

Ancient Dragon.

That’s what the dragons who have lived for more than 1,000 years are called.

Dragons are said to be the strongest living beings, but there aren’t many that live more than 1,000 years.

That’s why an Ancient Dragon is special within dragons.

It is said that just meeting one in your lifetime as a normal adventurer would be lucky.

You could brag about it your whole life.

Of course, if you survive, that is…

“It might be rough this time around…” (Lucas)

Deep creases are made between the eyebrows of Lucas-san.

“L-Lucas-san.” (Makoto)

I am surprised by his uncharacteristically weak statement.

You said at the bar that you have fought and survived battles against any kind of monsters!

“I have fought an Ancient Dragon once when I was at the Heart of Laberintos. At that time, it was a party of more than 10 Mythril and Platinum Ranks…and more than half died. We were just lucky that some survived. Makoto, you are a Hero. Think of your survival first.” (Lucas)

“…No way, but…” (Makoto)

Lucas-san doesn’t wait for my rebuttal and orders the other adventurers.

In a short amount of time, an improvised party to subjugate the Ancient Dragon was created.

“Takatsuki-sama, please take care of Danna-sama, okay?” (Nina)

“N-Nina-san…?” (Makoto)

By the time I noticed, Nina-san was close by.

No, what did she say just now…?

“I am a Gold Rank adventurer. I am in the Ancient Dragon subjugation team.” (Nina)

“Wait! You are the wife of Fuji-yan!” (Makoto)

You are going to be marrying soon!

“But if we don’t defeat the Ancient Dragon, Makkaren is done for. Danna-sama, Chris, and everyone will die.” (Nina)

Nina-san smiles. It is the usual smile of Nina-san.

The veteran adventurers of Makkaren are leaving.

I was made fun of because I was weak even though I was an otherworlder. 

I was given a weird nickname.

Every day making an excuse to have a drinking party…

(No…) (Makoto)

This ‘route’ is no good.

It is the Bad End.

The veteran party with Lucas-san as the leader rushed into the Great Forest.

Obviously, not through the path where the stampede is.

They will be hiding with the trees, avoiding the monsters, and arrive at the Ancient Dragon.

(But if they arrive to where the Ancient Dragon is…) (Makoto)

It will become an intense battle.

That Ancient Dragon is most likely controlling the monsters.

Powerful monsters will gather where the Ancient Dragon is, and Lucas-san, Nina-san, and the others will be attacked, not only by the Ancient Dragon, but by a horde of monsters too.

When that happens, there’s no hopes of winning.

…They will all die.

Even so, Lucas-san who has the title of Dragon Hunter might be able to bring the situation to a point where they will both take each other down.

That’s the plan of Lucas-san.

No, it is not a plan.

It is a suicidal charge.

I look around.

Monsters burned to cinders from fire magic, and clouds of dust rising.

There’s practically no Water Spirits due to them loving silence and peace.

My magic is useless.

The useless…Hero.

Damn it!

Game Over.

That screen showed up in my mind.

And despair began to cover my whole body.

“XXXXXXXX (UNDINE)!!” (Makoto)

I unconsciously shout in Spirit Language!

Come out already! 

…Even so, the Great Spirit doesn’t show up.

Sa-san is fighting a Rock Giant with her hammer.

Furiae-san was having a hard time charming the pack of Big Wolves that were moving fast.

The other Silver Rank adventurers were somehow managing by having the rampart at their backs, but…

(We will most likely not last long…) (Makoto)

What can I do? 

My mana is zero.

There’s no Water Spirits.

If I didn’t have Clear Mind, I would be scratching my head in frustration.

I could only hold Lucy who was lying down.

Do I not have anything? Any other choice?!

As if hearing this…

Words show up in mid-air.

[Who will you sync with?]

Furiae

Lucy

(…Eh? RPG Player…) (Makoto)

Choices float in front of me.

Letters I am used to seeing.

But the choices were not the usual Yes and No.

It is as if the Skill is advising me.

But I have no time to hesitate.

Choose.

(But who?) (Makoto)

Sync with Furiae-san?

If I do, what I can use is Charm Magic?

It is convenient to use Charm Magic and have the monsters kill each other, but I don’t think I am that skilful with it.

In the first place, Moon Magic shows its power at night.

Not now.

Then…

“Lucy, let me synchronize with you. Sorry, even though you are injured…” (Makoto)

“…It is okay. But you might get burned like last time…” (Lucy)

“That’s okay then.” (Makoto)

According to Noah-sama, due to the Love Pact, Lucy and I can synchronize better than before.

That’s why, it should be okay…probably.

“Hey, by synchronizing, you mean that, right?” (Lucy)

“?”

Lucy wraps her uninjured hand around the back of my head as she smiles.

“Lucy, don’t force yourself to move, it w—” (Makoto)

It will worsen your wound…is what I was about to say, but I couldn’t.

“Here…Hnnn.” (Lucy)

She kissed me.

At that instant, my sight became bright red.

There’s a whole lot of bright red lights.

Just like at that time when the Giant Old Man showed me the Spirits for the first time.

No, it is more than at that time.

It is overflowing with Fire Spirits as far as my eyes can see.

What…is…this?! 

(No, wait. Remember…) (Makoto)

Fire Spirits love fires and festivals.

Source: First time Spirit Language.

Fire Spirits are the rowdy type?!

What dangerous Spirits…is what I thought at the time I read that.

Fire Spirits had nothing to do with me at that time, so I forgot about it.

The surroundings are a state of war with monsters and Makkaren adventurers and soldiers.

For the Fire Spirits, this must be like a brawl.

“Hot! XXXXXX (Stay a bit away).” (Makoto)

The Fire Spirits nearby were scorching me! 

I hurriedly warned them with Spirit Language.

Aah…so I got burned in the past because of these guys.

Lucy, looks like your demon blood had nothing to do with it.

“…Makoto?” (Lucy)

Lucy stopped kissing me and looked up at me in wonder.

The Fire Spirits are…not disappearing.

“XXXXXXXXXXXXX (Fire Spirit-sans, please lend me your strength).” (Makoto)

“““““XXXXX (Alright!).”””””

A powerful response came back!

We can do this.

“Takatsuki-kun, what are you doing while Fu-chan and I are desperately fighting here~?” (Aya)

“My Knight! Keep the flirting in moderation!” (Furiae)

Ah, crap.

They saw my sync kiss with Lucy.

“Sa-san! I will be using Spirit Magic that’s powerful enough to blow up all the monsters! Tell everyone to evacuate!” (Makoto)

“Eeeh? Geez, I got it!” (Aya)

Sa-san puffed her cheeks in anger and took a deep breath.

“EVERYONE!!! Takatsuki-kun is going to be blowing up all the monsters, so run awaaaaaaay!!” (Aya)

Even though she is not using communication magic, she shouted in a loud enough voice that it resonated through all the Great Forest.

That’s my Sa-san! 

Alright, let’s do this!

I held the hand of Lucy tightly.

The magic I will be using is…

Fire Magic: Fireball.

I am a newbie in Fire Magic.

I haven’t trained with it at all compared to Water Magic.

That’s why I will be using Elementary Magic.

But right now I have infinite mana…

(For now, it should be okay to make as many as the number of monsters, I guess…) (Makoto)

I activate the spell.

◇Furiae Naia Laphroaig POV◇

“What’s…this?” (Furiae)

I stare dumbfounded at the sky.

An amount of fireballs that’s enough to cover the whole sky as far as my eye can see.

Not only the monsters, even the adventurers were fazed out by this.

“Run away close to the ramparts quickly! Make a roll-call to see if there’s comrades that have not managed to run away!” (Aya)

The warrior Aya-san is shouting out loud.

The adventurers hurriedly run away.

The monsters chase after them, but…

But fireballs shot at an astounding speed were hitting those monsters.

The fireballs that hit the ground made a vertical fire pillar.

When I looked around, I could see monsters chasing after the adventurers getting burned by fireballs here and there.

Unbelievable magic accuracy and a wide field of vision.

The one controlling those is…

“Hey, Sa-san, Nina-san and the others entered the forest from the left side, right?” (Makoto)

“Yeah, so I think it is okay to attack the monsters at the right side.” (Aya)

“Okay~.” (Makoto)

The moment My Knight said that, several hundreds of fireballs were shot at the monster horde, and several hundred of fire pillars were raised.

The pitiful cries of monsters resonate. 

The monsters there must be in a hellish situation right now.

But I thought that cruel sight was beautiful.

Perfectly controlled magic can be this beautiful.

At that moment, a giant shadow passed by in the sky.

“Takatsuki-kun! A Green Dragon showed up!” (Aya)

“Geh, again?” (Makoto)

My Knight makes a displeased expression.

If I remember correctly, it caused quite a lot of trouble last time.

I heard it was defeated by Ryosuke in the end though…

“Fire Magic: [Hundred Fire Arrows].” (Makoto)

After muttering those words.

The Green Dragon was pierced by an astounding amount of fire arrows and crashed down.

Eh? That easily?

“Waah, Takatsuki-kun, it is well-done now!” (Aya)

The Warrior-san applauds.

“Green Dragons burn easily, huh.” (Lucy)

Mage-san chuckles as if amazed.

There’s no tension at all.

“Hero Makoto! All adventurers and soldiers have finished evacuating!” 

“Everyone aside from the group of Lucas-san that headed to the Ancient Dragon should be here already.” 

The adventurers report to My Knight.

Looks like they have finished retreating.

“Alright. Then, let’s put an end to this.” (Makoto)

Saying this, My Knight raises his dagger.

“Hih!” 

The one who screamed is someone I don’t know, but it must be a mage.

(Well, I can understand why you would scream…) (Furiae)

I myself am a Moon Mage.

Seeing the mass of mana that’s swirling around My Knight is making me shake.

How can he look so fine being in the middle of that?

The several thousands of fireballs that are still covering the sky to the point of being dazzling had increased by more than three times its numbers now.

Even if there were more than 100 high rank mages, I don’t think they would be able to replicate this.

Moreover, it is only one person that’s making this possible.

That guy that’s easily controlling this mind numbing amount of mana so easily…

Fire Magic: [Fireball Rain].” (Makoto)

(There’s no such spell!) (Furiae)

He seems to be improvising.

*BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!*

The fireballs rain on the horde of monsters without giving room to breath.

Ah, the monsters are finally beginning to run away.

They obviously couldn’t endure this.

(When he was kissing the Mage-san at our back while the Warrior-san and I were fighting, I was thinking about kicking him, but…) (Furiae)

What a guy.

It is just as Ryosuke said…

‘Takatsuki-kun will always be able to resolve it in the end’, was it?

Is that what they call trust?

Ryosuke’s attitude when talking about My Knight feels kinda different from trust.

The Light Hero, Sakurai Ryosuke.

The Water Country’s Hero, Takatsuki Makoto.

The two of them are the complete opposite.

As a Monarch Rank Destiny Mage, I can see Fate Threads with Destiny Magic.

The people have Fate Threads proportional to their influence. 

The Light Hero is especially exceptional in that front.

He has several thousands of Fate Threads worthy of being the person who will be saving the world.

On the other hand, from the Water Country’s Hero…from My Knight…I can’t see a single Fate Thread.

That’s why I thought at first that he was a weak existence that doesn’t have any influence at all.

But I was wrong.

Takatsuki Makoto has a lot of influence in the Warrior-san and the Mage-san, and he is loved.

On top of that, he is loved by the Rozes Princess.

And yet, I can’t see anything.

I can’t see his future.

A person who my powers don’t work on.

It bothers me…

Maybe he is hiding unbelievable power…

That’s why I had him become my Guardian Knight.

I didn’t expect him to easily accept it though.

But the result was that, even when he became my Guardian Knight, I couldn’t see anything.

It is not like Takatsuki Makoto was hiding any power. He was simply a diligent Hero that likes to train.

Fortunately, Takatsuki Makoto and his comrades are not bad people. 

They don’t discriminate against me, the Cursed Oracle, and spoke to me without any worries.

The Water City of Makkaren they brought me to is also a good place.

My Knight and Ryosuke get along.

This place is pleasant.

That’s what I thought.

But…

I saw the future of Makkaren falling with my Destiny Magic.

A stampede that would be impossible to block in a rural place like this.

But clairvoyance isn’t definite.

I don’t want to do nothing and wait for destruction.

Thinking this, I came all the way to the battlefield.

(…But this is crazy.) (Furiae)

The despairing amount of monsters I thought would bring the downfall of the city…has been brought to screams and were made to run away by a single apprentice mage.

It is already completely different from the future I saw.

…The stampede of monsters pushing Makkaren…disappeared.

    1. “…The stampede of monsters pushing Makkaren…disappeared.”
      When u know how many monsters in there, when u know what their rank r, then its a bone chilling statement she said…
      @.@…

    1. The reason he doesn’t have gate threads is because he creates his own fate and I bet that it is because of a mix of his personality, his unique skill, and luck

      1. He also has a perspective outside the world thanks to RPG Player. If Charm Magic can’t influence him, then Fate magic wouldn’t be able to predict his actions either. He is literally a joker in a deck of cards as far as the world is concerned and wherever he shows up a ‘terrible hand’ might suddenly turn into a great one.

        1. Or more like, he’s a hand of Uno cards in a world of poker cards.

          Logically a royal flush is the strongest poker hand, but what happens when there’s some guy handing out Reverse and Draw 2 cards to friends and allies?

      2. His RPG player puts his perception outside of the world. His existence can’t be properly perceived by the world. He’s not destined to be anything. No Fate he must fulfill. But… that means he can play however he wants. It’s a MMP where he can choose whether or not he’s going to take on any quest he encounters. Even if it was fated to be someone else’s quest.
        The churches administrations will be terrified if they ever find out what his skill actually means.

        Also if he used sync in a game of poker he’d add their cards to his hand. How would to rank a full house made of 3 3s, 3 4s, 3 5s & a 6 to add a straight of 4? Be even more brutal in a game of cribbage.
        Lol

  2. Makes sense the thing about fate since the destiny of an RPG character is supposed to be chosen by the player.

    1. The technicality of what I’m about to say irritates even me… BUT he’s not exactly the Water Hero so much as he’s A Hero of the Water Country… Lastly I’m speculating, (I’m sure we all are honestly), that he’ll be about to use all 4 main elements by some way contacting the spirits through his harem. My bet for next is Earth spirits through Aya?

      1. Its been talked about way back when but Aya does not have magic. There is nothing for Makoto to sync with. She has no affinity for anything. He’s already synced with her too and it was a dud.

  3. Thank you for the chapter !
    Makoto doesn’t have a single Fate Thread. Interesting. Maybe his RPG Player skill gives him irregular causality as an hidden effect ? In other words, it is possible that Makoto operates on a different and irregular system of cause and effect than regular causality, so he has a resistance against precognition, fate manipulation and causality manipulation.

    1. I mean he is literally an RPG player. He technically exists outside of the world thus the fate of the world doesn’t influence him. He is basically sitting at a computer screen playing the game.

      1. At least the RPG isn’t Dark Souls. Otherwise Makoto would be falling off cliffs and other high places a lot <.<

      2. @mighthose thank you. Now I have a cold from the chill of thinking about what you speculated with the save/load

  4. Thanks for the chapter!!!
    All hail Makoto the Rozes Water Hero
    also known as the Weakest Mage
    and the Spirit Magic User
    The one whose destiny could not be seen
    but after this we would also call him the Synchro mage

    1. More like Kissing Mage since he had to make out with Lucy in order to use fire magic. What’s a more embarrassing nickname for Makoto: Goblin Cleaner or Kissing Mage?

  5. We have Sofia for water attributes, Lucy for fire attributes, is there will be another? I don’t know which attributes Aya possessed, and maybe the Loli mage down into the this list too

      1. Oh god no. Hajime, Kosuke and Kouki just recently encountered muscle fairies in Arifureta. The contamination will be spreading.

  6. This was great! That kiss with Lucy set him and all those monsters on fire literally. He exists outside fate. Makes his own decisions and acts on them. I get the impression he’ll NTR Sakurai for real now. Thanks for the chapter, with a big smile.

  7. Hum, most likely it’s the effect of the RPG skill, since makoto’s mind kinda exists outside the world it makes sense that it’s impossible to predict his future

  8. “Fire Magic: [Fireball Rain].” (Makoto)
    (There’s no such spell!) (Furiae)
    Well, there is now.
    Anyways, so is he gonna be able to contact the fire spirits on his own now, or does he still have to kiss Lucy every time?
    Cause I think they lingered around after the kiss, right?

    1. Probably not. While “fireball” is a low tier magic, he still cast thousands so his proficiency in fire might be above 105 afterwards. His proficiency increase by a lot during the fight with the other hero so it’s likely that this will also. Considering low levels need less exp, should be possible to +100 in level.

  9. That’s the thing about Makoto, Furiae. When you’re looking at his future… “YOU’LL NEVER REACH THE TRUTH” (said in Gold Experience Requiem’s voice)

  10. I thought he was going to get the fire spirits help but am now wanting to know what would happen if he synced with Furiae instead maybe start of ntr route.

  11. Well holy crap. Takki is well and truly scary now. A storm of fire can flood the battlefield at his leisure, and the Fire Spirits will gladly gather at them.

    It’s nice seeing Furiae’s POV at last. Turns out, having your perspective being set outside the world itself means you not only get clues on how to go about the future and are immune to mental attacks, it means destiny itself has no hold on you. Your future can’t be seen, and it can overturn existing futures. Sweet.

    As a side, I hope this isn’t the beginning of Fu-chan getting into the harem. I rather like her dynamic with Sakurai already and a platonic snarky female friend would be great for the group.

    1. Fire spirits are truly scary.
      You use them to burn down your enemy’s only for more to gather so you can burn down more a Magic that strengthens over the time of war

  12. “Lucy stopped kissing me and looked up at me in wonder.
    The Fire Spirits are…not disappearing.”
    From Ch. 116
    “You are saying Lucy and I are in a romantic relationship now?” (Makoto)
    “In the time you were kissing, that’s how it was viewed, and the Spirits blessed you.” (Noah)
    I-Is that so?!
    “By the way: Girlfriend -> Engaged -> Married. The strength of the pact increases in that order.” (Noah)

    So what we’ve learned here is that leaping into a deadly melee to save someone is how you propose in fire spirit.

  13. Level up… level up… Level up… level up… Level up… level up…
    ……………… Level up… level up… Hero Makoto level is over 9000!!!!
    Also… so makoto on his own near water and with lucy on earth uh…. i wonder if makoto can see darkness spirits if he kisses furiae, and then boom, the whole city is charmed lol BUT… he messed up and now everyone wants his ass….. *shudders*

    1. like that old episode fo Buffy the vampire slayer where Xander use a charm to get revenge on Cornelia cuz she dumped him at the valentine ball.
      Then the spell go wrong and all thecity BUT Cornelia became yandere on Xander ass.

  14. Also….. rsther than spirit sans grant me ztrenght….. i would go…. Spirit sans lets party!!! BBQ THEM UP!!
    AND SPIRITS: Yay!!!

  15. So far in terms of massive spells used for war, a massive prison of water that uses depth to crush his opponent, a giant water being (if only due to undine) that killed a ton of 1000 year old beasts and now using Lucy to basically rain Hellfire (well arrows and fireballs, but still) on his foes. All he needs now is to create a wind bubble that takes all the air away, the ground to tear apart to create a massive hole in the earth and he’ll have the four basic elements ready to go.

    …Lucy should have Earth and Wood magic due to that Grand Mage skill right? As such, he would need to accidentally seduce some people who can cast Lightning, Wind, Darkness, Light…wait, what other magic types are there again…? He has Charm Magic, so would that mean there’s a branch of magic specialized for things like Paralyzation, Poison, Confusion, Silence, Blindness, etc.?

    1. Lucy has the great sage skill that gives her affinity for Fire, Water, Wood, and Earth. Not all attributes. (Ch 10-11)

      Only her fire magic is Monarch rank. The other ones could be intermediate rank at least.

      Fire, Water, Wood, Wind, Earth, Light, Darkness, Destiny and more I think?

  16. Thank you kami-sama and what a kawinkidink. This morning i saw they grew to 5 and was thinking the same thing. But you know that just proves how much we love your work.

  17. Thanks for chap
    So he can overturn fate, so cool. As predicted that fire spirits love war 😂

    When will furi start referring to them as people, ie by names rather than their roles.

    When he used fire magic i was thinking he’ll say “explosion is art! “😂

  18. Thanks for the chapter
    So the first time Makoto got burned by Lucy’s stalker fire spirit, good to know…

    Is it just because of RPG player that Makoto’s fate cannot be seen, or also because he is an old god’s apostle ( and so outsider of the holy God view) ?

    So, with all these Monster slaughters, Makoto’s life expentency should be above 40 years now, shouldn’t it ?

    If I remember when people use suicide Magic in this world, they can still survive, can’t they ?

  19. Thanks for the chapter! And yay for the fire spirits~ Wonder if we’ll be seeing other spirits soon, also wonder how many spirits are there~ Are there only the main elemental spirits or are there such things as spirits of fate, moon and sun? Kinda curious, since magic skills of those types exist so it shouldn’t be weird for other types to exist~ Also Sakurai really does trust Makoto to a frightening degree, I can imagine Sakurai 100% trusting Makoto even if makoto told him to walk into a situation that could lead to his death…. Anywho Go go Makoto~ You looked so cool there now go save Lucas from the ancient dragon through spirit magic!

  20. So is his proficiency in just magic instead of only water magic? Makoto seems to be able to just effortlessly use complex fire magic, which shouldn’t be possible without a high proficiency.

    1. From how it seems to work it should be called Mana Manipulation instead.
      Finally some magic with a proper offensive power, the ice magic from the last 500 monsters wasn’t bad though.
      Thanks for the chapter.

  21. > The RPG Player at work making cheat analytic skills impossible to their job like Furi-san

    > When the love grows so much between Lucy and Makoto, i think Ifrit will appear, and Undine will make appear to for Sofia
    For Sa-san, maybe Shiva

    > It is better to say that love will bring the world to peace in this case.. Possible only by MC…. hahahahahaha

  22. Take it as a bystander that can see the scenery of carnage,

    Red sky, thousands of agonizing scream. It’s like a festival. Just what the fire spirit likes. People who see this will think it’s the end of the world lol,

    Fireball Rain. Man that’s like Pitlord from DotA

  23. Thanks for the chapter and thanks to the sponsors! ^^
    That was some insanely cool scene here! XD
    After that, his reputation and levels up are going to be nuts! x)
    [Your Spirit Magic reached 200!]

  24. Getting pretty disappointed lately with the fights… At the start MC used various properties of water to fight with, like freezing the ground, drowning enemies in pools with creative water walk etc. Now he’s just oretueee… I was hoping he’d even move on to stuff like flooding enemy airways with water and manually drowning them, or freezing the water in there to block airways, even freezing blood would pop every blood vessel in an enemy, or since he has trouble finding water sources, using blood. In this fight even he could have frozen the ground to prevent monsters from getting traction which would help a lot against a stampede, or make an ice wall funnel to concentrate them for aoe attacks. But nah, he just brute forces through standard attacks now, and author isn’t even consistent with his power level. Mr almost destroyed the capital city of the number 1 military powerhouse of the continent while in a low spirit area and getting rushed by a melee hero suddenly can’t take on a piddly 10k horde in an area with a bunch of spirits he’s made a long connection with while leisurely sitting back way outside the danger zone… On top of that not using charm magic of furi which we know can get obedience from mass numbers of monsters to just raise a disposable army VS ancient dragon, and instead just have them fight each other… We skip all that to have an ass pull of MC using meteors, a combination of earth and fire magic while he shouldn’t be able to use earth in the sync.. Author is still going on about infinite mana but those infinite water spirit mana didn’t seem that infinite… Just feels like the authors gotten super lazy at writing fights…

    1. There are 10,000 monsters here…. 2,000 were defeated by the mages, but were revived by the Ancient Dragon.

      Water Spirits like peace and silence, so the more it becomes a battlefield the less there are of them. The battlefield is already bloody with entrails, scorched, and chaotic. Lucy has been firing fire spells like Phoenix and meteors non-stop until she fell off the ramparts and Makoto dived to save her.

      The highland capital fight followed the same logic against the 5,000 thousand year monsters and he synchronized with the power of Undine (Water Spirit King in many lores). The training field fight with Gerald was close to the waters and had ample water spirits.

      Why would the mana of a Water Spirit King like Undine with a form be comparable to normal water spirits that are like blue dots?

      Furi’s Charm is not all-mighty, the most he could do is simply charm Undine again probably but he chose Lucy since the environment suited it best.

      Makoto did not use meteors. Those are just fireballs he is making. The entire battlefield was filled with fire spirits that like war and festivals. For spirit magic, the environment matters. It is a conditional power.

      Spirit magic is not made for battles, but war said by Noah.

      I’m pretty disappointed in your comprehension skills and rant.

      1. Yes there’s 10k monsters, so what? You think 10k random monsters is more than the military of the largest capital city on the continent?
        Water spirits also don’t like areas focused on the main stream gods but that didn’t stop MC from almost destroying the capital city. And guess what? The battlefield only becomes a battlefield AFTER the fight starts.
        Who the hell said anything about the 5000 year monsters? I’m talking about his duel with the NTRed hero, learn to read please. His duel was in a training ground, what kind of a training ground is located next to a lake or something? There is no water source nearby which is why he had to rely on spirits and couldn’t use any big magic without their water generation. Spirits were also in lower numbers because they are in the middle of a religious country. They only grew in number because he was summoning them in his fight.
        Why would the mana of a water spirit king be comparable? Gee I don’t know, maybe it’s because they’re both always described as INFINITE MANA? Maybe try learning to read? And guess what else? When he almost blew up the capital he didn’t even have a spirit king following him.
        Who said anything about HIM charming? I’m talking about Furi herself who has the ability to ACCIDENTALLY and INSTANTLY charm hero class individuals by touching them. Once again this is without actively casting charm.
        If you’re having this much trouble remembering what happened, you should try going back and re-reading the chapters, before simply ironically dismissing someone else who actually remembers it as poor reading comprehension.

        1. 1. That moment of almost taking out the capital was when his emotions were going astray. He was pretty angry at that moment and that connected with the Spirits, making them angry too. Also, I am pretty sure “destroying the capital” was an exaggeration. It would flood the capital, but that doesn’t mean destroying it. No, it wouldn’t have wiped out a capital. It most likely would kill weak civilians though.

          2. Spirits have infinite mana, but as seen time and time before, Makoto has a limit to how much mana he can borrow, and also a cooldown to when he can ask again for more mana. Undine most likely has a larger pool Makoto can borrow from.

          3. I think Charm works different depending on the target. Her Charm must be really strong on people, and humanoid monsters. When faced against monsters that wouldn’t find her attractive to begin with, the effect most likely lessens. The wolves were giving her a hard time.
          For example; a wolf using charm against wolves would most likely prove more effective. That’s the kind of logic I can take from it. Goblins find humans attractive, hence she could charm them more easily. Not all monsters are like that, and humans by default find her attractive.
          Consider it more of a multiplier than an additive value.

    2. 10K random monsters? They were brought by the Ancient dragon from the demon continent by the orders of one of the three demon lords. The forces were borrowed from the dragon demon lord of the skies (Astraroth). What are you reading???

      The highland capital has four sides. The northern section is where the training area is located near the water (Highland Castle). It was where Sakurai the light hero was positioned to face the incoming monster stampede from the water facing the North. Re-read that part again and the monster stampede part.

      Spirit magic has a cool down and spirit magic users have a limit before they lose control. Makoto also needs to prepare in advance to use higher amounts of mana and increase cooperation from water spirits. Makoto used his anger to call spirits and almost destroyed the capital. It’s similar to how a Tsunami hits a coastal city. The city won’t be destroyed, but you can expect plenty of structural damage. Makoto has low attribute values, so there is a limit to how much mana he can control before suffering from mana dizziness like Lucy when she uses monarch level attacks consecutively. The longer a fight goes on, the less water spirits will likely gather. Water spirits are best suited for surprise attacks and covert operations creating mist. Makoto attracted the water spirits in his surroundings since they react more strongly to emotions. Anger is considered the most volatile and wild human emotion according to Noah.

      Fire Spirits are better suited for raw power and sustained combat (war). Makoto remembers how he saw fire spirits after kissing Lucy before, so he choose her and he is used to her skill-sets. The difference here is Undine can appear and stay in a battlefield not liked by water spirits. She also seems to have a stronger presence as well as personality. If water spirits are like little children pulling pranks, then Undine is like an adult with her own whims.

      Furiae is not some cheat character, she does have high attribute values compared to Makoto but zero combat abilities. In order for her to charm the Light Hero, she had to touch him or at night when his resistances were weak while her skill was stronger under moonlight. Other cases she would need to make direct eye contact. She has to actively use it to charm them completely, its not a passive skill. From all the cases so far, it seems charm is stronger on humanoid opponents compared to non-human types. If you are talking about how Leonard got charmed by Furiae, then those are some low standards. Leon is like 9 years old and vastly lacks experience compared to heroes like Geralt and Sakurai. Leon did make eye contact with Furi.

      Read Chapter 137 to see how Furiae’s charm is not absolute. She would not be able to charm the Ancient Dragon for instance. Expecting her to charm 10,000 monsters is at the height of unreasonable. Makoto’s synchro is not going to strengthen her charm abilities from what it is, but he could use her charm to increase cooperation from water spirits.

      Noah stated in order for Makoto to charm a whimsical water spirit king like Undine. He needed charm magic and at least 200 water proficiency.

      RPG player gave Makoto two options to overcome the situation. Synchro with Lucy or Furiae. Makoto simply choose what he was more familiar with and whose abilities best suited the ravaged environment.

      1. Slight Correction. North, South, East are land facing. West is the one facing the ocean. General Yuwein is at highland castle on the western side where the training field is.

        “North Gate: Sun Knights (First and Second Division) + Northern Sky Knight Order + Water Country Heroes.

        South Gate: Sun Knights (Third and Fourth Division) + Southern Sky Knight Order + Lucy.

        East Gate: Sun Knights (Fifth and Sixth Division) + Eastern Sky Knight Order + Templars.

        West Gate: Sun Knights (Seventh Division) + Western Sky Knight Order + Light Hero.” (Chapter 103)

        “And what interested me the most was…

        (There’s a decent amount of Water Spirits around.) (Makoto)

        The Rozes Castle had a despairingly low amount of Spirits.

        Is it because the Highland Castle doesn’t function as a church?

        Or is it because there’s a sea nearby?”(Chapter 80)

  25. Damn, the fire spirits are hooligans. Makes sense I guess, so Makoto got burned because of their mischief huh. That’s surprisingly sensible. Those fire spirits must be having fun just now

  26. I have I little crazy theory that I thought sometime ago, that maybe Makoto is wasn’t supposed to exist in this world and because of that he don’t have fate thread, but as I don’t like that path could be that is simple because RPG Player make that he don’t have ant thread for been in other dimension o even more simpler, because the skill with his choices can control (at least to some extent) the result destiny of his choices.

  27. Thank you Reigokai for a truly awesome Chapter!

    Oh Fu-chan, don’t you know someone who has NO threads of fate binding them are unbound from Destiny. The incontrevertible outcome ordained by reality does not exist for those without threads of fate. For them who are free from such constraints they are free to make their own futures, to go against fate and create a future they themselves envision. Truly terrifying and awe-inspiring no?

    1. Makes me think about Kingdoms of Amalur: The Reckoning. You start of as a person that has died, and then brought back to life, and so you are not tied down by fate, and that could lead to some epic things

  28. Oh please…? That bit about the water spirits liking peace and not liking violence is obviously wrong considering they almost killed that Valentine guy who Makoto fought and were really happy to help him in fights up until now, when this plot contrivance requires they not help him so he can draw out another hidden power instead…LOL

    1. seem like you forgot this statement : Monsters burned to cinders from fire magic, and clouds of dust rising.
      kinda like when humidity get lower, water vapour decrease
      so low water vapour or dry air = less water spirit

      the bit : liking peace and not liking violence
      because when you think about water most people will associate it with calming effect
      during that fight Makoto the one that use their mana to kill geralt, the water spirit just supply the mana

      1. Yes, I take your point on this one! Although I was being more than slightly facetious, you are in fact correct! : )

    2. I think a lot of the stuff with the water spirits wanting to harm Geralt had to due with their peace loving selves to an extent.

  29. So frustrating how looooooong it takes for him to remember >.< Well, this is nice though. I had hoped he would sync with Lucy the first time dragon came, but the light hero came and swooped up the kill

    1. well adrenaline is also one hell of a drug. and your brain will produce it for free in the most questionable time, together with all others happy juice.

      there is no way your brain could work remembering things with it’s drugs factory running wild.

  30. There is no thread of destiny? His future can’t be seen? Well, the protagonist is an existence who is against the world and above it. He will not let the gods roll the dice.

  31. I just remembered something. Noah-sama said that Makoto almost did the act of NTR (something along those lines) when Nina asked him to synchronize with her. I wonder what would happen if he synchronized with Furiae. It did show up in the choices, would it be hinting something?
