“As expected, magic is refreshing and good.”

    He finished by kicking the skeleton that was caught in the magic explosion and flew away. It’s so easy to use magic, so why did you run away?

    “Shouldn’t the balance be patched? Why is there no prey that the swordsman has an advantage over?”

    Do Yu-geon grumbled in frustration.

    “So the balance is messed up, no. This is not a game. Realistically speaking, the sword is only for ceremonial purposes.”

    “Ha, it’s really not romantic.”

    “Romance is about using magic.”

    I used space-time magic by moving magical power. The grimoire that was on the bookshelf in the room was summoned.

    “Something like this. Hehe.”

    I sent the grimoire back. The romance of fantasy is, after all, magic. Magic, a brilliant and mysterious force. Actually, modern magic is science, so being a scientist is more romantic, but the reality of talent awaits me, so I won’t.

    “I can’t use it.”

    “It’s a pity. If you want, I can write for you. Would you like a drink?”

    “it’s okay.”

    “Is it okay? Is it really okay?”

    I summoned a bottle of cider from the refrigerator at home.

    “It’s really okay.”

    You’re probably thirsty because you’re hunting, but you really don’t drink?

    “Did you get offended by teasing me?”

    “I’m feeling the wall of reality.”

    “That’s suddenly too much. Now, drink it.”

    I handed him some cider. The guy hesitated, but I took it as he loosened his fingers one by one and gave it to me. I give it and I get it again. Bouncing.

    The guy drank the cider in one go. You can feel the pain of carbonation just by looking at it.

    “If you drink like that, won’t your throat hurt?”

    “It hurts.”

    “But why do you drink like that? I don’t understand.”

    “This is cooler.”

    “Um, I don’t understand.”

    “You just don’t want to understand, do you?”

    “You got it right.”

    Do Yu-geon sighed. Why is the response so bad?

    “I’m kidding.”

    “Okay. I think I’ve had enough time to catch my breath, so let’s hunt some more.”

    “We have raised our level a lot, so is there a need to hurry up and hunt?”

    “35 is not high. There are many other people over 50.”

    “They have full-time jobs. They posted a lot this month. They need to take it easy.”

    “I’m not satisfied at all.”

    “Even if you hunt hard, you will always be dissatisfied because skeletons give you little experience. Why not set the bar low?”

    Skeletons are easier to hunt than other mobs so far. It is a pain to regenerate a broken bone, but if the head is broken, it can lead to death, so there is no solution at all. Moreover, since they do not have weapons, they are not a threat as long as you watch out for their bites.

    The hunting difficulty is easy, so hunting is possible quickly, but the actual level-up speed is slowed down because less experience points are given. They say they come out in large quantities, but if they come at you in really large quantities, it can be dangerous, so running away is the standard way to hunt. This side can be completely wiped out with magic, so we caught them that way just now, but this is not what Do Yu-geon wants to do.

    Other parties take risks and try to attack cracks to make up for their lack of level-up speed, but this party does not do that, so they are lagging behind in many ways.

    Do Yu-geon watched and quietly said.

    “Why not try attacking the crack?”

    “Do I really need to risk dying?”

    As a result of secretly following Do Yu-geon and his group of pyromancers when he attempted to attack a rift several times, I believe that this is a level of difficulty that can be easily conquered by oneself, but to put it bluntly, you can’t take this guy to a dangerous place.

    The guy sighed. I feel sorry for no reason. I feel like I’m blocking the path ahead. Actually, it’s closer to a nuance of telling us to stop playing dangerous games.

    “Relax. When we first caught slime, we started with the feeling of adventure rather than leveling up. Take your time and have a big heart.”

    I used my magic power to extinguish all the torches in the maze. A dark darkness came.

    “It’s not something I would say, but it’s thrilling.”

    There is no fire, but it is meaningless because you can feel the structure of the maze through magic.

    Do Yu-geon picked up a rock. Thanks to the skill, I can feel the presence even in a narrow range, so I guess there is no inconvenience. A rock was thrown across the maze.

    “It’s good if it’s thrilling, but other people have already leveled up quickly so there’s less you don’t know. Even if you suspect a monster will come out of the dark, you can now be sure there won’t be one.”

    I don’t really agree with it, but it’s the same. There is no Cosmic Horror yet.

    “Then I’ll play the monster in the dark and you want to run away?”

    “I’ll politely decline.”

    “It’s bland.”

    I am confident that I will do well, but it is disappointing. I used a little fireball magic to create a small flame. Although it cannot be completely transformed and applied, this much is now possible. Danny took a torch hanging from the wall and lit it.

    “Wow, it’s shiny.”

    “Huh? What? Ah, me? That’s right.”

    Saying that openly and without shame increased my flattery.

    Do Yu-geon looked at him for a moment, then shook his head and pointed at the torch. Perhaps reacting to the new flames, the metal frame sparkled and then lost its luster.

    this… … ?

    Hmm.

    “It sparkles like that. It’s amazing. But now I’m the only one that sparkles, right?”

    Do Yu-geon’s face turned red at the shameless prevarication. I think it hit me directly in the heart.

    is not it… … ? Is it just because you’re embarrassed to look at it?

    As if signaling the era of platforms, a platform boom has occurred in book publishing as well. One online bookstore allows you to read a few books at a low price for a monthly fee, while another online bookstore offers a product with no limit on the amount of reading you can read.

    This change is a bit interesting, but I felt that reading on a mobile or e-book device gave me less comprehension and satisfaction than reading with physical books, so I bought and read most of the books in kind. According to academic research results, this decline in reading comprehension was not just a feeling, but an objective fact.

    In my past life, I was self-made except for the house I received when I became independent, so my poor wallet situation did not solve the real estate pressure caused by the purchase of books, but that is not the case in this life, so I tend to read more in kind.

    Still, I don’t necessarily read books in kind, so sometimes when I come across a book I really like while book shopping, I often buy it as an e-book because I feel the urge to read it right away. Thanks to that, I periodically purchase several books as e-books, and although I thought it was inevitable when I bought them and read them, I felt uneasy after purchasing them.

    All the other books are in the study, so why are you on the device? Or should I say it’s the uncomfortable feeling of reading a book alone in the living room for decoration purposes. Classification that is not unified creates a sense of resistance. Thanks to you, I am more reluctant to read e-books.

    However, considering the advantages of the monthly subscription service, I think there will be a need to change to a more proactive attitude in the future. The most inconvenient part of purchasing a book is that you cannot know the specific contents of the book before purchasing it.

    There is a preview service, but it only shows a small amount of content, and it is very inconvenient to go to a bookstore and look at it in person. So, we look at the table of contents, author history, publisher, etc., but there are still many uncertainties. I bought it with high expectations, but it’s a pain to find that it’s a book that only takes up space in my library.

    However, this problem is solved with the unlimited monthly service. If you don’t like it after reading it, you can read something else. There is no need to spend time choosing a book carefully, nor do you need to feel frustrated that you were fooled by a superficial book introduction.

    Of course, I don’t plan on using it right now. The changing times are interesting, but you still have to hold the actual book and read it. Moderate weight, smooth texture and hazy ink scent. That’s what reading is like.

    My neck and wrists are getting sore, but I don’t like it.

    As I was wiping the top of the living room cabinet, I saw my mother’s gaze, so I grabbed the mop with both hands and wiped it dry. I scrubbed from one end to the other and stood up. Once done.

    “I need to clean the gaps in the drawers too.”

    Mom gave instructions while lying down on the sofa. a drawer? When I looked at the living room cabinet, of course there were many open drawers. What I’m saying is open it one by one and clean it. I can’t eat it.

    “Mom, I have a maid anyway, so why should I do it?”

    “So who wants to drink?”

    Ugh. I’m still worried about when that will happen.

    “I didn’t mean to drink it, but Yumina forced me to drink it.”

    Yumina only suggested it, but that is not the important fact.

    “But mom didn’t teach my daughter that way. In times like that, you should grab her by the collar and reject her.”

    “No, that’s a bit….”

    “Then finish cleaning.”

    After glaring at my mother for a moment as she moved into a comfortable position holding the book, I used magic to open the drawer.

    “Don’t use magic. What if I can’t control my strength again?”

    Ah, really. I sat down again and cleaned the cracks that I couldn’t clean. The muscles in my arms that I wasn’t using were sore, so I used magic to clean them without my mom knowing, and somehow I was able to complete it.

    “It’s all done.”

    “You did really well. Now, would you like a cup of coffee?”

    “Ugh, I hate it.”

    I lay down in the living room.

    “I have the right to fool around.”

    “Who on earth gave birth to a daughter like this?”

    Mom placed her hand on her cheek and muttered loudly.

    “Mom.”

    “Hmm. My daughter was picked up from under a bridge? Isn’t that surprising?”

    “I know.”

    When you give birth, it’s under your legs, so it’s natural.

    “Wow, that’s a really boring reaction.”

    Mom got up from the sofa and went to the kitchen. There was the sound of the coffee machine running.

    A cool energy rose from the floor. It’s nice to lie down. It would be nice to always live idle. I don’t think I’ve been around much since I was reincarnated, but I feel like I’m losing my life because I’m already a middle school student. How can I avoid getting older?

    My mom came with two mugs and handed me one.

    “Come on, it’s our daughter.”

    “Wow, thank you. Mom, you’re the best.”

    “Okay then.”

    I got up and took the cup. The scent of coffee came up. It’s not a cappuccino without milk foam. Still, coffee made by someone else is always good. After all, life is like this. The fantastic pleasure of enjoying coffee without having to do anything.

    As I was blowing on my coffee to cool it, I somehow felt my mother’s gaze on me. I looked at him in confusion, but my mother just smiled. Yes? what? If you drink this, you probably won’t order anything else. If you ask me to clean the bathroom, I really have to vehemently refuse.

    I took a sip of coffee. I felt an overwhelming salty taste that covered the taste of coffee. It tastes like coffee mixed with salt water. what is this. It was a taste I couldn’t even imagine, so I was so embarrassed that I was pouring down the coffee that was in it, and my mom laughed while holding on to the sofa. Ugh, Mom, I’m really, really, really bad.
