The Reincarnated Boy's Growth Log ~The Harder I Work The Stronger I Can Become!?~ Chapter 14

Status Increase, And Contract

“Haa, haa, s.h.i.+t!”

I avoid the approaching sword.

“Lightning Magic Lightning Body Endowment twice-fold activate, Weapon Endowment activate!”

With this, our speed should be on par!

“Hou! This is the overlapping of magic huh! It’s quite the speed isn’t it! Then I as well, Fire Magic Heat Burn Weapon Endowment”

Uo! Even Sensei has endowed her weapon. Furthermore, because of her t.i.tle, the equilibrium until just now is beginning to tilt!

“Kuu!”

I somehow swing my spear but it got led off by the sword. I have no other choice so I used my trump card.

“How about this!”

The moment I said that, I used light magic’s Light in front of Sensei’s eyes. Of course, Sensei was surprised and closed her eyes.

I aim for that opening and mowed down my spear. But, Sensei was already not there. Where exactly did she? Even when I search the vicinity, she isn’t anywhere. When I was thinking that, a shadow falls from the top. Of course, that was Sensei. Without any time to dodge, I received Sensei’s heel drop with my head.

“Lei, you’re still naive. Don’t just rely on magic and status, you have to polish your techniques as well. Well, maybe it’s still early for you who is still 8 years old?”

Sensei says that as she pets my head. Aa, there’s a swell there so I don’t want her to touch it if possible but……wai, it hurts! Don’t grind against it, I said it hurts!

As one would expect, I couldn’t take it anymore so I activate body enhancement and avoid it. Sensei saw that and laughed. This person really……

I am with Sensei as promised yesterday, training since morning. I would have been having a match with Aerith if it’s usually but, she’s learning through observation today. I don’t know the reason but, it seems she doesn’t want to touch a sword for now. Perhaps Sensei knows the reason though she isn’t saying anything.

“But, Lei. Even without overlapping the endowments, you became considerably faster in comparison to previously. Is this said t.i.tle’s ability?”

Right, I try having a look at my status after I woke up yesterday and I was surprised by the changes. My intuition tells me that this is probably「The One That Difficulties Visits」’s effect. That status is this.

The skills and magic I’ve used during the large march have increased altogether. The values and the magic power went up by 4 times, the agility went up by almost 5 times.

The One Loved By The Lightning Spirit: The one who has the affection of the lightning spirit. The consumption of magic power when using lightning magic reduces when contracted. It’s also possible to use lightning magic that’s one level above. The contracted spirit becomes visible.

Something amazing came again. Being able to use magic that’s one level above just by contracting is outrageous. Let’s have Filia help me out.

“Let’s wrap it up here for today. Aerith! It’s over so how about you come over here?”

Sensei says as she’s grinning. Why is she grinning?

Aerith who was told that, made a mad dash off after seeing my face……did I do something?

“Haa, even though it’s fine if she becomes honest as well. Well, it’s what that child thinks so I can’t say anything though. What is Lei going to do now?”

“I’m thinking about going to where Filia is now. Since there’s still time before I go to Chichiue’s place, I’m thinking about trying to contract a lightning spirit”

“Is that so. I’ll go help up with the clean up of the large march. I’ll return before it’s time”

“Understood. Please be careful”

Saying that, Sensei went to help out.

Alright! First of all, let’s look for Filia.

I have a hunch that she’ll be in the garden at this time if I’m not wrong.

After several minutes of walking, over there is Filia and Chrona making a garland.

“Oh! It’s quite well made, isn’t it”

“Oo! Onii-sama! What’s the matter!”

“Lei-sama! I made this!”

Saying that, Filia and Chrona embrace me. When I pet their heads, they both have fawning expressions. Un, cute.

“Truth is, I came with a favour for Filia”

“A favour? What is it?”

Filia who cutely tilts her head. Led on by that, Chrona tilts her head in the same fas.h.i.+on. It was cute so I’ll pet them once more.

“Truth is, I became capable of getting along with the lightning’s spirit. I want Filia to help me on that”

“Is that it! It’s the same as me huh!”

Filia says that happily. Beside her, ‘The same as Lei-sama. That’s nice~’ says Chrona who is feeling down. She looks slightly pitiful so I’ll pet her lots. When I did that, her expression returned to a smile.

“Understood! I will help you. The lightning spirit-san who wants to get along with Onii-sama is, erm, aa! It’s behind Onii-sama! Please try activating the lightning magic!”

I was told that so, I activate lightning magic’s Bolt. When I did that, I noticed my magic power being absorbed. Is the spirit absorbing it?

“Onii-sama. Please give a name to the spirit-san!”

“Name? Do you know the gender?”

“Erm, when I ask spirit-san, it seems spirit-san doesn’t have a particular form. That’s why it can be either one the person who contracted wishes. Uーn it’s difficult”

Filia looks troubled as she says that.

I’ve decided on a name. Hmm, my sense is going to be questioned.

“Alright! I’ve decided! Your name will be Hikarin!¹”

There’s nothing wrong with my head? It’s this child’s name.

When I did that, a dazzling light begins to release. And when it settles down, what appeared was a nitous.h.i.+n² girl.

“I think a name like Hikarin is out of fas.h.i.+on though, Master”

And she criticizes the name. This was the encounter of Hikarin who fights with me until the death, and me.
