Chapter 60

Magic Tower (5)

‘Thought just guiding the first day and today would be enough!’

Gracie Frail felt like being struck by a bolt from the blue sky.

As the proud celestial law mage’s descendant welcoming the saintess and paladin’s visit and taking a simple guidance role?

That was rather what Gracie wanted.

Guiding to the place where the Magic Tower lord is while guiding the Magic Tower the next day?

Since not something that takes that long no correlation.

But have to support the two throughout the month?

This was a problem.

Amelia in Gracie’s eyes was a good person.

Even if an ordinary(?) magic accident happens not leaving to others but going and treating herself just looking at the appearance was not a person who neglects others’ wounds or pain.

But that personality was rather anxious as now.

The reason the saintess and paladin came to the Magic Tower already heard from the Magic Tower lord.

The reason of helping the Magic Tower and polishing self for the saintess’s greater growth.

What is needed for growth as a saintess?

What Gracie could immediately recall was saving more people in difficulty, and treating more injured people.

And if Amelia calls Gracie every day saying wants to save more people?

‘M, my research...!’

All of Gracie’s research time might fly for a month.

Especially Gracie was the type that researches displaying instantaneous concentration.

That is, if concentration breaks in the middle of concentrating because someone suddenly calls or has business that day was too difficult to concentrate again.

Raised skill using magic tools, but to continuously obtain the support money paid to the family had to prove that self is an excellent mage not only with skill but also with knowledge.

Especially recently Gracie who was pondering what to do for the thesis topic about magic using magic tools earnestly prayed in the heart.

‘Please the saintess not call me often!’

+++

After finishing the face-to-face with the Magic Tower lord Amelia and Paulen and the slime returned to the villa again.

“Haa.”

“Why sighing as soon as returning?”

“Well still don’t know well how to live here for a month.”

“Would there be complicated? Comfortably strolling near the Magic Tower every day and if an accident happens extending the hand of treatment is enough.”

“Strolling every day...!”

“If worrying from there cannot even start, Amelia.”

When Amelia and Paulen were exchanging conversation, the slime came down from Amelia’s hand and headed to the kitchen.

Poyong!

‘Water!’

“Buduri?”

The slime that moved jumping poyong poyong caught the magic tool that creates water placed in the kitchen with tentacles and operated it.

Click!

Swaaaaa.

Water poured inside the pot.

‘Water!’

Burrurrur!

Yesterday evening and this morning.

The slime helped Amelia’s cooking using the magic tool.

The slime that felt the joy of making food cooperating with someone.

But what felt more enjoyable than that was the sensation of using ‘tools’.

The slime that originally moved and fought with only own body one, came to feel the sensation of using tools new and enjoyable by coming to use tentacles.

Dumbbells are also tools but that is a process of holding and putting to train self to the end.

Different grain from directly activating the magic tool.

“Buduri, not cooking yet.”

Amelia thought the slime preparing in advance knowing cooking again by chance.

But.

Click!

Click!

Click!

“Buduri?”

Tilted the head looking at the slime turning the magic tool off and on at constant cycles.

“Somehow seems Buduri got a taste in using magic tools?”

“Got a taste in magic tools?”

“Yes. Isn’t it like a child playing with a toy for the first time?”

“Uh...”

‘Seems look so too?’

“In other words same as an exerciser exercising lifting dumbbells for the first time!”

“Was there a need to say that example?...But okay to continue operating like that? Would use magic stones.”

“The magic stones used there are not that expensive so would be okay. Moreover Buduri is smart so would not use dangerously.”

Still time is morning.

Since nothing particular to do, the two had each’s time leaving the slime playing with the magic tool alone.

Amelia entered the room and read the bible, and Paulen went out to the garden and trained lightly swinging the sword.

And the slime left alone in the kitchen continued playing with the magic tool.

Click!

Swaaaaa.

Burrurrur!

The slime repeatedly turning water on and off.

Enjoyable for the slime, but a boring scene for most viewers.

▶Nothing to do besides that?

▶Rather training with the muscle human is fun ㅇㅇ.

[Yarn Lady]▶Squishy-nim is also enjoying so what~.

▶What? I am bored!

▶But is that fun turning that? (really don’t know)

▶Ah, overflowing.

As water continued pouring water was trying to overflow from the pot.

‘Overflow!’

Even the slime that was using the magic tool frantically realized looking at water trying to overflow in the pot.

‘Must not overflow!’

The slime also naturally realized the concept of must not get dirty while living with humans.

Therefore, the choice the slime chose was putting down the magic tool, then catching the pot handle with tentacles and lifting the body upward.

And calmly lowered the body then the moment the body touches the water.

Juuuup!

The slime absorbed the water and entered inside the pot.

▶lmao what is that lmao

▶Water overflowing? Ung~ just suck and eat enough~.

▶Like that Squishy getting cooked inside the pot?

[Squishy Queen]▶Don’t say ominous sounds insolent thing!

‘Done!’

The slime that solved the problem of water overflowing decided to try using the magic tool more differently this time.

Used Detection and confirmed the location of the magic tool outside the pot, and the slime that increased the tentacles and caught the magic tool again.

Click!

Swaaaaa.

Operated raising the magic tool upward and received water.

‘Water washing!’

The slime reproduced the time of washing together with Amelia using the magic tool.

Since if water tries to fill inside the pot just absorb enough, the slime fully enjoyed the feeling of being hit by the falling water.

Could not even think of turning off the switch while playing enjoyably.

Swaaaaa...

‘Huh? Not coming out!’

The slime used the magic tool until the magic power contained in the magic stone all ran out.

▷Water not coming out!

The slime used the chat with the heart of wanting to ask the solution.

▶What? Washing time ended?

[Noblesse Fire]▶Doesn’t water have to continue coming out?

[Gothic Luxury Bone]▶Hehe, somehow seems the magic stone’s magic power all ran out.

‘Magic stone ran out?’

The slime brought the magic tool close and observed.

Though magic power all consumed the magic stone was properly inside the magic tool.

▷There is a magic stone!

[Gothic Luxury Bone]▶There is a magic stone, but the magic power all ran out, Squishy-nim.

▷Magic power ran out?

[Free Spirit]▶I will explain!

When the slime tilted the body not understanding the dragon’s words the joker stepped forward and started explaining.

Even if the joker is the natural mage faction not that has no knowledge about magic tools.

Rather the heart of wanting to inform even more kindly to the slime showing interest in magic-related items surged.

The joker’s explanation fortunately the slime could also understand.

There is something called magic power in the magic stone and the magic tool uses that magic power.

Giving an example same as the slime using skills.

The power used when increasing the length of tentacles more.

That is exactly magic power.

Since explained easily the slime realized.

‘Magic power insufficient! Need magic power!’

To use the magic tool more need magic power.

And the slime purely recalled one method.

The magic tool moves using magic power.

There is magic power inside the magic stone.

Self also uses magic power when using skills.

Self has magic power.

That is, wouldn’t the magic tool operate even using own magic power?

‘Magic power!’

The slime immediately put the thought recalled into action.

Opened the lid of the place the magic stone enters and brought the tentacles inside there.

‘Magic power!’

And the slime the power used when increasing tentacles.

The power used when doing Bounce Jumping.

Tried to move with tentacles without using magic power.

‘Uuuuung~!’

But did not go smoothly from the beginning.

Know the sensation of magic power being used, but moving that freely to the place self wants was not easy.

However, the slime did not give up and continued challenging.

Tried to confirm how magic power moves while repeating reducing and increasing the tentacles.

And as the number of attempts increased the slime gradually caught the sense.

‘Magic power!’

Uuung!

Finally the slime could concentrate magic power at the end of the tentacles in the place the magic stone entered.

That moment.

The slime felt the sensation of the magic power gathered on the tentacles trying to be pulled by something.

‘Magic tool!’

That was the power of the magic tool with the switch on trying to absorb magic power without needing to ponder.

The magic tool could not immediately absorb the slime’s magic power.

Became able to move magic power even to the tentacles, but the slime did not even master up to emitting the gathered magic power.

However, that did not mean the slime was frustrated.

‘Uuuuuung~!’

Same as when trying to move magic power, this time the slime wished and tried so that the gathered magic power can be absorbed by the magic tool.

What is recalling in the head is the thought of sending the gathered magic power outside the body.

The thought of trying to send magic power toward the magic tool trying to absorb magic power.

The slime tried repeating several times.

And, finally the slime’s effort bore fruit.

[Acquired skill: Mana Manipulation.]

The system’s voice informing acquired a new skill.

The magic power concentrated on the tentacles was emitted toward the magic tool and the magic tool absorbed the emitted magic power.

Swaaaaa.

‘Water!’

Burrurrurur!

Poyong!

Splash!

The slime while being hit by the water created with own magic power even jumped making water sounds inside the pot not enough with trembling.

▶Why is water coming out? Didn’t say magic power ran out?

▶Didn’t Squishy put magic power?

[Noblesse Fire]▶Was staying still continuously to do that? Did something again.

[Yarn Lady]▶Wa! Squishy-nim, seems can use magic power as wanted now! Congratulations!“

[Squishy Queen]▶This much is of course possible if my same kind!

For monsters magic power was a very familiar thing.

Something indispensable for living in the wild and frequently used skills.

What is needed to use that was exactly magic power.

Therefore, the monsters were recognizing only to the extent that the slime became better at using skills.

But there was one astonished at the slime’s action.

‘Wh, what on earth did, Squishy? Other guys don’t know about magic tools so cannot even understand what Squishy did!’

Exactly the joker.

‘That is not simply the level of using skills!’

The former human mage and currently lich joker knew what the slime did now and was astonished.

‘Injecting just magic power not a magic stone into a magic tool that uses magic stones and activating? That is mana manipulation of the level only a high-ranking mage can do!’
