Only My Magic Levels Up - Chapter 64



Only Noblemtl

While Lilia was kicking the second earthen golem, which was almost finished, and destroying it.

Behind, a giant water golem slowly extended its arms forward.

As Galen normally uses his recoil grenade, he extends his hand to aim at the enemy.

The spirit pointed forward with his blunt fist and fired a giant projectile.

Bullfight!

Compared to the normal grenade launcher, which was fired from the glove covering Galen’s hand, it was only slightly larger than an adult’s head.

The special grenade fired from a fist the size of a large boulder was also ridiculously large.

Enough to drown a person by throwing them inside.

At first glance, it looked like the water golem’s fist had detached entirely and was flying away like a rocket punch.

Phew!

The earthen golem, just completed and about to take its monumental first step, crumpled and bounced away, only to come to a stop after colliding with another golem behind it.

It is said to be a solid piece of dirt that could be mistaken for a rock, but it is so durable that it can be shattered even by Lilia’s kick.

The destructive power contained within it was not enough to withstand even a large-sized water lump on the higher line.

Lilia cried out her honest feelings as she looked at the pitiful, squashed earthen golem.

“I think it’s too much?!”

“I was wondering if there might be some unexpected function. Like it’s made of clay and thus resistant to water?”

“Well, I don’t think that applies here!”

Although the soil absorbs water well, you can tell by watering the pot once. If you water too much, the water will pool on the soil or overflow the pot tray.

The size of the special bomb was almost the size of an earth golem, so how could it possibly absorb it? Especially since it wasn’t just a trickle of water, but a full-force strike.

“By the way, can you leave one for me?”

“I’ll leave it if you choose.”

“Then this is it!”

Lillia pulled the Spear of Light out of her hand and aimed the tip of the spear at the nearest earthen golem.

Galen nodded and called the spirit. The spirit moved its arm slightly and changed its aim.

Bullfight!

The big, beautiful cannonballs began to fly again.

As spirit creation evolved, spirits also gained the ability to move.

The fundamentals of the water spirit are drinking water and spitting water out.

The magical power consumption when ‘eating’ was almost zero, and when ‘spitting out’ it consumed only a little more.

It didn’t matter whether it was in the form of a stream of water or a drop of water, and there was almost no burden in releasing it at maximum power.

Especially when compared to the amount consumed ‘when moving’, when a hippopotamus becomes more powerful as it grows in size.

‘There’s a reason I enjoyed using the water bullet. I could conserve the magic power of the water flow manipulation, and still fire it in rapid succession with just the magic power of the spirit creation.’

Of course, because its power was too moderate, it was only used for sparring with Lilia, and in actual combat, it was mainly used to massacre civilians.

If those mud golems that come out like that aren’t commoners, then what are they?

Surely each and every one of those are not gold-level? Then I should just turn around and go straight to the ruins.

Fortunately, that didn’t happen.

Phew!

Each time the spirit fired a special bullet, one golem after another was crushed and fell out.

“Looking at the fact that he keeps getting hit even though he’s doing that… it seems like his movement speed is originally slow….”

Lilia muttered as she watched the other golems being literally torn to pieces, then turned her gaze to the golem she had left behind for herself.

Having hunted evil spirits even before meeting Galen, she had a habit of analyzing her opponents.

“Well, structurally speaking, your lower body is weak, so it’ll be difficult to run fast… Aiko.”

The golem, walking at a speed that even ordinary people could easily shake off, swung its fist at her.

humming!

It was fierce and fast. I was relieved by the slow movement speed, but it wouldn’t have been strange if I had just gotten hit.

Of course, Lilia didn’t let her guard down. Even if she had let her guard down, she was fast enough to react.

She took a light step back and easily dodged the attack, then looked back at Galen with a smile on her face as if she found it amusing.

“Only the upper part of the body moves! It looks like only the upper body is fast!”

“It feels like a jointed doll. Although, it would be strange if the rock moved smoothly.”

Since the spirits were taking care of the golems on their own, Galen himself was free enough to talk to Lilia.

“How serious is the threat?”

“If you don’t let your guard down… I think the Silver Warriors will dodge as soon as possible. If you dodge just once, you don’t have to worry about follow-up attacks!”

In a normal fight between warriors, both sides keep stepping, so even if one side retreats, the other side immediately pursues and the battle continues.

However, the Golem’s upper body is fast, and its lower body is slow. In fact, it is almost like a standing attack, so it is much easier to deal with.

“You don’t have to worry about the one-on-ones of the expedition members. There’s no one with the skills to be a hundred.”

“Maybe?”

The golem took another step forward and swung his fist again.

Lilia dodged to the side with perfect timing and swung her spear with all her might.

puck!

The spear of light pierced the golem’s head perfectly.

The golem’s neck and below moved without a care.

Thud thud thud!

Even after stabbing him three times in succession and completely destroying his head, he was still fine.

Lilia tilted her head and this time she stabbed the golem’s torso.

The golem swung its arms left and right a couple of times, almost recklessly, while the spear of light pierced its torso more than ten times.

“It doesn’t seem like the head is a weak point, nor is the torso?”

“But weren’t the others disabled?”

“That’s right! The things I kicked and broke at first have also stopped. Oh, by any chance?”

Lilia swung her spear horizontally.

A lance is not a true lance, it is just a light that is shaped like an elongated spear. There is no law that says it can only be used for stabbing.

Gagagagak!

The golem’s waist was cut away, almost as if it was being crushed rather than broken.

Only when the upper body slid and separated from the lower body did the movement stop.

“I guess I can just break it in half!”

“Hmm, it might not be that easy.”

Galen slightly increased his rating for earth golems.

It is strong enough to be called bronze, but weak enough to be called silver, so it does not pose an immediate threat to the expedition team.

It’s annoying when you kill someone like this.

Because it doesn’t end with just stabbing the head, heart, or other vital points, but rather you have to destroy them all without thinking.

It is said that it is possible to kill it by cutting it in half, but it is impossible for Baek-eun to cut through its rock-hard body. The weapon cannot withstand it.

“I guess I could break it by hitting its waist with a blunt object… but I don’t think it’ll work with one blow at Baek-eun’s level.”

“Just knock several times!”

“Oh, of course that’s true. If there are more than one or two of them, if we can’t take them down quickly, our formation could get tangled up······.”

“viewer!”

A new voice interrupted their conversation. Galen looked back.

Veron was walking briskly, and Alon was following a little behind.

Before she knew it, Lilia had abandoned the broken golem and run to Galen’s side.

It seems that the front line has not yet become quiet. Galen asked Veron.

“Can I leave that area alone?”

“Two dwarves would be enough. Are you so incompetent that you can’t even do that?”

Veron, who had been laughing, soon hardened his expression slightly.

“There is no need to go this far.”

“What are you talking about? Oh, that valley… is that where the dirt monsters were stepped on?”

“Yes. The coach is someone who watches. He is not someone who actually plays.”

“That’s true, but if you were going to say something like that, you should have come a little earlier.”

The spirit had already crushed nine golems into mud, and Lilia had also destroyed three of them.

Of course, there were some parts that were quickly resolved because the gap between the two people and the golems was so large.

However, if he had just stood there and watched, the golems would have already attacked him. Veron had not run that fast.

“I know, that’s what I’m talking about. Since it was our first time meeting, I was cautious, and since I saw how easily you guys handled it, it was late. It means that from now on, I’ll come right away, so you don’t have to do anything.”

“You don’t have to be so strict.”

Galen said with a grin.

“I have no intention of claiming a stake in the investigation based on just this much.”

“······.”

Veron paused, having been hit on the nail on the head.

Alon, who arrived later, let out a faint sigh after hearing Galen’s words.

“It’s not just because of that. It’s also to keep the church’s mediation plan as much as possible. If we receive the help of the judge, what will our position be?”

“I understand. But we can’t just rely on you in an emergency situation like this.”

“that······.”

“If you are concerned, let me be clear. We will take action if we deem it necessary, but we will never demand a share of the ruins for that. If you guys were to ask for it first, then the calculation would be a little different.”

“···That won’t happen.”

“I hope so too. Then I will ask you to take care of the remaining things.”

Galen stretched out his hand in the direction that was within the sensory sphere of the water flow manipulation.

In the winding passage that was not very clear, new golems were walking towards us with slow steps.

The expressions of the two brothers hardened slightly.

“As expected, this place too······.”

“Huh, you think numbers are everything?”

One person clicks his tongue and the other walks away laughing.

Galen, who no longer needed to use his hands, called upon the spirit. The giant water golem shrank down quickly.

The spirit, transformed into a small cat, walked briskly.

I go to the nearest puddle of water created here and there by the giant grenade and soak my head.

Zwww!

It was like a cat drinking water, but the water level was dropping in an instant.

In the past, you had to draw water by hand and feed it, but now the spirit moves on its own so it can drink, which is convenient.

The brothers Alon and Veron, who had been glancing at the sight as if it was a strange sight, soon came face to face with the golem army.

Whisper!

They must have already figured out what Lilia had figured out, because instead of making other small attacks, they slashed at his waist and split him in two.

The two golden warriors were superior to the priestess Lilia in terms of pure fighting prowess.

Since there are two of them, the golems will decrease at twice the speed.

They advanced to the other side of the passage, leaving behind the remains of golems that had quickly turned to dust.

“I guess they really don’t want to lend us a hand.”

“I think pride is one thing, but I think the stakes are bigger.”

It’s not because Galen and Lilia are pretty, but because he doesn’t want to give them any room to move.

It’s hard to bear sharing with the earth nymphs, so how much more would you hate giving even the land to the church?

“Well, if they say they’ll do it all, is there any need for me to interfere?”

I’ve already checked the status window.

Even if you kill those golems, which are not individually strong, they don’t give you much experience.

Galen was glad that he didn’t have to bother with anything that was just annoying.

“Let’s save our strength. We don’t know what might happen.”

“yes!”

Lilia smirked, scattering the glares.

*

The golems that swarmed from the front and back numbered about a hundred in total.

Of course, without a single exception, they just walked along slowly and were destroyed in one blow, so they were not a threat at all.

Without even needing to rest, the expedition moved forward again.

“It’s those guys from earlier!”

After a while, there was another attack in the same manner.

After defeating it and moving forward, it soon happened again.

“Damn, you’re really annoying.”

Veron’s complaint was an accurate expression of the current situation.

It would be better if a powerful enemy that requires gold appeared and we had a cool fight.

The golds were having a hard time moving around because of the golems, which were not very strong but had a subtle difficulty level that was too difficult to leave to the silvers.

Even Galen, who just watched, would be bored, so it would be understandable for Veron, who had to do dozens of swordsmanship himself, to get annoyed.

But, it all ended absurdly.

“······?”

After the third raid, we started moving again, but soon stopped again.

This time no shouts came from the front.

Instead, a chaotic atmosphere was conveyed from the Baek Eun of the middle row.

Wondering what was going on, Galen and Lilia went forward to see.

They soon found out why.

The front was blocked.

“What is this··· situation?”

“That’s right.”

Akanksha muttered with a puzzled expression.

“It’s not like the passage collapsed… it’s just blocked so smoothly.”

The passage they had walked through so far was clearly artificial. The floor, walls, and ceiling were all solidly built.

But the blocked front was the same as the other places. It was as if they were claiming that they had only dug a passage up to this point.

Kuuuung!

Satchet threw his fist. A heavy vibration reverberated through the hallway, making it hard to believe it was coming from such a small body.

But nothing changed. The earth fairy’s brow furrowed.

“There’s not even a hint of movement. Even if it’s blocked, it must be very thick. But judging by the way it looks, it wouldn’t be strange if it ended here.”

“What nonsense! Where in the world can you find such a relic!”

Veron suddenly got angry.

I’ve been walking along a straight road for quite some time, but all I’ve come to is a dead end and nothing?

Kuuuung! Kuuuung!

Just in case, Akanksha and Sachet pounded the walls and floor hard on both sides.

But the passage showed no response to the earth fairy’s great strength.

“······Let’s go back for now.”

Alon, the most cautious of the four, opened his mouth.

“You don’t mean to end the exploration here, do you?”

“Of course not. I agree with my brother that there are no relics like this anywhere. I think there must be a secret room or passage somewhere.”

Alon shook his head at Sachette’s question and continued speaking.

“But I didn’t notice anything particularly strange on my way here. It won’t be easy to find something hidden. Let’s come back properly prepared.”

“I agree. We are prepared to fight the monsters in the ruins, not to dig up the ground inside the ruins.”

Akanksha agreed. Sachet nodded, and Veron, although displeased, agreed since he had no other choice.

Galen and Lilia were the directors, so there was no way to interfere with their decisions.

Excluding the time delayed by the battle, it was only a leisurely walk of about an hour. It was not a burden to go out again.

The expedition team, struggling to recover from their embarrassment, returned the way they came.

The earth golems also seemed to have noticed and did not appear on the way back.

I think I walked like that for about thirty minutes.

“Stop! Stop!”

A nervous voice came from the front.

Lilia looked back reflexively. She waited a moment, but the golem was nowhere to be seen.

I thought maybe they only appeared in front this time, but I didn’t hear any sounds of fighting.

Galen and Lilia, who moved forward in a puzzled manner, soon blinked their eyes amicably.

The passage wasn’t blocked like before. There was an attempt to get through.

Not forward, but to the left.

“···Was there a section that was bent at a right angle like that earlier?”

“···There wasn’t any?”

The length had changed.
