A Journey Of A Delusional Witch
Chapter 7: City Once Again

Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪

Oh, sorry I didn't see you there.

As I said before, I was practicing magic. It's just, since I'm not wearing a single piece of clothing, I'm cold!

That's why I used (Fire Control) to warm up while raising my [Fire Magic] level.

At first I was just making fireballs. But because I was bored, I tried the fire dance I had seen on TV.

The result!

•[Terms have been fulfilled, [Dance] skill successfully opened•

•[Fire Magic] has reached level 5. Get 1 1•

•[Fire Lance) from [Fire Magic]•

•[Mana Presence] has reached level 10. Get 1 1•

•[Magic Knowledge] has reached level 10. Get 1 1•

•[Body Strengthening] has reached level 5. Get 1 1•

•[Mana Enchant] has reached level 5. Get 1 1•

I myself did not expect this either.

After all, is there a sane person who wants to dance in the middle of a dark forest without wearing a single piece of cloth just for the sake of leveling up?

You'd probably think it was something a young girl didn't deserve.

Just so you know well, it feels so amazing!

When I dance I feel the Mana in my body flowing perfectly. Every movement I made gave different sensations to each other.

Ahhe... I feel like I can awaken something inside of me.

More importantly, should I pick up the [Dance] skill or not well?

I do have an extra SP, but, does dancing have anything to do with Witches?

Ah, yes, it is not that there is some kind of ritual that requires you to dance while casting a spell!

All right, I'll take it!

Hm... (Tribal Dance)?

This is!

Increases mana capacity, memorization speed, and magic power while in the middle of nature. And the effect will increase even further with the fewer body parts covered with cloth!?

"Haha... Hahahahahaha... Ahahaha..."

Ha... I never thought I would get a skill like this. This world is full of mysteries!

All right, I think it's time I went back to town.

Take it easy, I'm not moving. I'll just go buy some necessities and come back.

In short, I'm going shopping.

This forest is great! But to live in it I need a lot of things. Like a change of clothes and a book to fill free time.

I also need other basic needs such as furniture, kitchen needs such as cooking spices. I also need farming tools like shovels and stuff.

But is my money enough?

7 Gold. 6 silver. And 2 bronze.

Hm... If it's less I can still sell something. Obviously I don't need (Hide) from my hunting. I can also sell some (Meat) and (Forest Owl's Feather).

Oh, I can also sell the potion I made!

Alright, let's use the Alchemy Formation to make it faster.

I managed to make 50 of each, and

I think this is enough.

The clothes were dry and finally I dressed again, all the items I wanted to sell were put in while the other items I stored in a simple box I made using (Soil Control).

The hat was in the head, the Staff was in the hand, and Glaza was ready as well.

All right, let's go!

...

..

.

Just as I entered the northern part of the forest which borders the city of Gata, I was immediately greeted with the darkness of the night.

I set out excitedly, it turned out that the sun had sunk.

Since the central part of the forest was always the same whether it was day or night, my perception of time became chaotic.

Should I just go back and wait for the morning?

Just go ahead.

Although it was pitch black, this would probably be a good opportunity to obtain that skill.

Now, focus my Mana on my two eyes.

From what was originally pitch-black there was now a silhouette of the thing before me.

Better than not being able to see at all. But just in case.

"Glaza, let me know if Mobs is approaching!"

Whoo!

All right, let's walk.

The first thing you should know at night here is that the composition and strength of Mobs instantly change drastically.

Mobs who are supposed to be in another part of the forest at night will start roaming freely.

For example, a pair (Forest Wolf) that I am currently fighting.

"Heh, it's not to be. (Shadow Bind) just stay there!"

While the other wolf was busy trying to catch Glaza who was flying here and there, I shot him using (Gravel Shoot) and ended his life.

"Now... You're just one"

Grrr....!!!

"Oh, still fighting?"

I then threw it at this dog to see how effective the poison was.

The upshot...

"So it only takes five minutes... There is still room for development"

After that I was again confronted by the other Mobs. Of course I managed to defeat them easily.

Especially when [Black Magic] was at its peak. Nothing can stop me.

Oh, I haven't said yeah.

The surrounding environment also has a big effect on the magic power you use.

If you were in a place where there was a lot of water, [Water Magic] would be strengthened.

If you were in a dark place like now, [Black Magic] would be strengthened.

And vice versa.

Walk in the middle

the darkness of the forest while continuing to be vigilant against the ambush was indeed very

difficult. But that doesn't mean I don't get anything.

•[Night Vision] skill has been fulfilled, successfully opened•

•[Tuition] skill has been fulfilled, successfully opened [Intuition]•

•[Black Magic] has reached level 15. Get 1 1•

•[Shadow Switch) from [Black Magic]•

•[Footwork] has reached level 5. Get 1 1•

•[Staff] has reached level 10. Get 1 1•

Take 'em!

Ahhe... I can finally see clearly enough.

But to be honest, the [Night Vision] skill was really serious about its name. What I see now is exactly like seeing a scene through binoculars that has a night vision function.

I'm sure I don't need to explain the function of [Intuition] right?

And the coolest one, (Shadow Switch).

Now I can move from one shadow to another!

How, cool no!

Enough explanation, now let's move on.

Oh... There's a light, ah, he's dead.

Did he not know that using [Light Magic] as a source of lighting would only invite a lot of Mobs to him?

Foolish, at least use [Fire Magic] because it is common knowledge that ferocious beasts are afraid of fire.

Oh there's more, this time a bonfire.

Find another way, I don't want to get close to them.

Tch! The owl is disturbing.

"Doing something about your family is a lazy servant!"

Who! Who!

This is also a mutt (Aqua Slash)!

Huh... It's so exhausting. But I finally saw the city ahead!

Now I notice again, their walls are high too well. 30m?

Although a little, I can see the activities in the city from here.

As I imagined, it was empty.

It is also called night. Especially now it's midnight. People must be asleep right now.

Well, it has nothing to do with me. Moreover, let's see what I got.

•[Water Magic] has reached the maximum level. Get 22nd 2nd•

•(Aqua Burst) and (Aqua Prison) from [Water Magic]•

•their requirements have been fulfilled. The [Stream Magic] skill was successfully exposed•

•[Soil Magic] has reached the maximum level. Get 22nd 2nd•

•[Gravel Burst) from [Soil Magic]•

•their requirements have been fulfilled. The [Stone Magic] skill successfully opened•

•the requirements were fulfilled. The [Wood Magic] skill was successfully exposed•

Here goes! This is the one I've been waiting for!

[Wood Magic]

A magic that allows its users to control the plants around it.

Requirements get : Have [Water Magic] and [Soil Magic] who have reached the maximum level.

Since they are second level skills, I need 6SP to upgrade them. And since there are three at once, I need a total of 18SP!

No problem, take it!

"Oh, is there anything you want to say, Ibis?"

I don't know what this forest wants, which is for sure I can feel my connection with this forest getting stronger.

Heh, while my mood is good. Let's go to town!

Hm... It was night but the city gates were still open. And the two people who were guarding him, they were quite diligent as well standing in the middle of the night like this.

Well, it's none of my business.

Comein!
