"I almost forgot about power. 92.5% power… If I want to run the armour enhancement longer I'll need a compatible power source. This means I'll have to limit the time and amount I use."

He retracted his wrist blade and cut the Frost Wolf's chest in half, cutting the ribcage aswell. He then dug his hand inside it's chest until felt a round object inside. He pulled out the object and it was a light blue orb with parts of it covered in ice. The orb also had some blood covering it.

He then went on to collect the orbs from the rest of the frost wolves, now having a total of 4.

"Oh. So that's the amount of money I have. I guess I never opened my inventory menu."

Klyde was now preparing to leave, but he didn't realize he was being watched. A figure dawned in blood red robes watches Klyde from above. His red hair blows through the wind as he stands above the trees.

Aiming his wand at Klyde, he begins to chant an incantation. His face remained expressionless as continued to chant his spell.

"Element of fire, hear my call. Turn my enemies to ashed in a ball of raging flames. Blazing Sphere."

As he finished his incantation an orb of flames, the same size as it's caster, had formed in front of of his wand.

The orb of flames charged at Klyde's direction. As Klyde turned to see what was making the sounds of roaring flames approaching him, Klyde turned to be greeted by a large fireball which blew up in front of him, sending him flying.

He stumbled as he hit the ground but quickly regained his strend. He stood up to see the figure descend to the ground, pointing his wand at him.

"Hand me the book of the world and I shall spare your life."

'Huh? The system wants me to eliminate him? Does that mean kill? No matter… I just hope I won't get in trouble.'

"You're after that, huh… Then you can take it from my dead body."

'He's level 43. And that spell was really powerful. I definitely don't want that thing hitting me as again.'

Klyde moved the screen to side to keep moderation of his mana. He then set the suits enhancement output to 50%.

"You really are a fool. To think, a level 20 adventure defying someone that's-"

Before Othen could finish his sentence Klyde had already dashed in front of him and before Othen could even react, Klyde landed a critical blow to the stomach.

< Health: 424/600 >

The force of the punch threw Othen away, and he collapsed on his back, his wand slipping out of his hand and meeting with the ground. He clenched his stomach as he groaned in pain and even spat out blood.

"Magic of effects…I call apon you… Restore my body to it's once glorious state… H-healing…" Othen chanted an incantation, his voice weak and clearly in pain.

His body started to glow green as he gained back his health. Othen looked up at Klyde with a more serious and angry but slightly horrified expression. He slow got up, picking up his wand and pointing it at him, though with a slight hesitation.

"Element of fire, hear my call. Ignite a crimson flame apon my palm. Fire." Othen chanted another incantation, creating a 6 flames above his wand.

"You really are persistent, aren't you?" Klyde said.

Othen's flames started to shift and morph, turning into small fireballs. All six of them shot forwards towards Klyde as he ran in Othen's direction. He jumped up to avoid the fireballs but the just followed him up.

All 6 of them landed at Klyde, Exploding on contact. Klyde was pushed higher into the air before he started falling down.

The height was no higher than when he fell into this world which made him not worry. He aimed his blaster at Othen and shot him.

Othen quick casted a barrier but it shattered the moment it was hit. Klyde fired his blaster at him again and it blasted through shoulder, detaching his arm.

Othen slowly looked at his detached left arm and screamed in pain and horror.

Klyde landed on the ground on both feet and held his sword in his hand, slowly approaching Othen.

The area Othen had been shot was burned and sealed, preventing him from bleeding, which Klyde didn't like so much.

"No, no, no! Please spare me! I promise, I won't do it ever again! I-I, I'll even pay, please! I'll do anything!" Othen plead for Klyde to spare his life.

Klyde stabbed Othen on the abdomen and gave him a good glare before pulling out his sword.

Seeing that he got his reward without killing him, decided to leave.

"If you survive this you better stay as far as you can away from me, then I'll let you be. If you die… not my problem." Klyde said, his back turned to him before leaving.

[ Enhancement output: 0%

[ Power: 88.6% ]

"88… I can only use this thing for about 70 minutes at full power now… I'm gonna have to use it conservatively until I can get a suitable power source."

While fighting Othen, Klyde analyzed their battle and gained a lot of information on magic.

First, Othen's mana and stamina were linked to a certain extent. His stamina dropped the more mana he either had or used.

Second was that not all spells required incantations. Othen was able to block his attack with a magic barrier and didn't have to say an incantation.

Lastly was each action takes mana. When firing fireballs at him, Othen lost mana when creating the flame, then when forming it and lastly when firing it.

"I should consider learning magic in the future. Regeneration spells will come in pretty handy if I get hurt. Or even offensive magic. I'll do that another day."
