15 Episode 15 Attack Skills






 I immediately head to my usual hunting grounds.
 The only monsters I'm going to kill are goblins.

 It's not that I want to kill strong demons.
 I just want to get the materials I need for blacksmithing, so goblins are a convenient opponent.

 Goblins basically work in packs.
 It's rare for them to act in unison, like the last time.

 Today we found three of them.
 ........Since we don't know the effects of the Bone Shot, it's too risky to try it right away.
 Let's reduce the enemy numbers first.

 For now, I've given the throwing knife an S-rank poison attack, so let's check its performance first.
 I hid behind a nearby rock and threw the knife at the goblins.

 I think I've improved this throwing a lot lately. The two knives I threw were right on target and pierced the two goblins.
 I activate auto-return and return the two knives to their original locations.

 The goblins still don't seem to be able to locate me.
 In the meantime, two goblins have fallen from the poison.

 ........Poison attack, that's pretty handy.
 It's a perfect match for the skills I have right now.

 In this situation, it seemed like it might be better to train with a bow.
 Maybe I should try making a bow sometime? No, but I don't think I'll be able to use it so easily.......it would be good if I could get a weapon with a long range attack that is even easier to use than a bow.

 When I'm at the last one, I show up.
 The goblin seems to notice me and looks at me with an irritated look.
 For now, I throw the knife. It stabs the goblin, and the goblin's face turns pale.

 Now I can try the bone shot to my heart's content.
 The goblins jumped at me, but I activate the skill for now.

Bone Shot.

 As he muttered, a bone flew straight off his sword.
 When it hit the goblin, it blew its body away.
 ........More powerful than I imagined.

 The staggered goblin raised its body, but next it spat out a bubble and fell down.
 It seemed to have died from the poison.

 Bone Shot, it's an easy skill to use.
 It can be used to hit opponents at mid-range, so it's best to set it up after they've noticed you with a poison attack.
 There were other things I wanted to try, so I went to find the next demon.

 I found another three goblins.
 The next thing I want to try is on the long range activation of the skill.

 I first throw the knife into a suitable position.
 The knife falls at the feet of the goblins.

 The goblins seemed to have noticed the sound and were looking at their surroundings warily.
 I looked at the knife and reminded them to activate the bone shot.

 A bone appeared and punched the goblin's body away.
 ........Oh. So the skill can be activated even from a distance?
 The goblin's pale face as it raised its body up.

 .........It seems that the skill also has a poison attack on it.
 This seems to be a fun combination of various combinations.
 If I just let the rest of them go, the goblins can be defeated.

 I retrieved only the knife and waited for the goblins to die from the poison while being wary of the surroundings.

 Once the goblins were dead, I retrieved the materials.
 For now, I changed all of my current equipment into a Goblin Iron Sword and gave it a poison attack and bone shot.

 This will make goblin hunting a lot easier.
 However, my body would become lame if I only fought from a distance.
 From time to time, I will fight at close quarters as well.

 Maybe it's because my level has gone up. I can read all of the goblins' movements.
 Still, you must not let your guard down.
 In a battle against a demon, the one who is careless will be killed.

 Pay attention to each of the goblin's movements as you deal with their attacks.
 The goblins move quickly to try to hit me.
 But if I do so, the poison will also turn faster.

 It didn't take long before it bubbled and fell over.
 ........The poison is too powerful.

 I have to be careful not to accidentally hurt myself. 
 I'll have to get some items that can deal with the poison.

 In the meantime, I should purchase an antidote potion at the apothecary on the way home.
 After that, I'll continue to defeat the goblins for a while, and when I've accumulated about 50 magic stones, I decided to return to the city.

 Back in town, I head to the apothecary as planned.
 I look around for antidote potions and recovery potions.
 As for potions, they're also divided by rank.

 ........only the prices are all the same.
 It's probably because the people who can create potions don't realize the difference.
 I bought a few of the highest quality ones as possible and then left the store.

 ...Speaking of which, my hammers are all recoverable as materials, but what about potions?
 Could it be that potions can be created as well? It would be great if you could make them with magic alone.

 After returning to my room, I was looking at the potions.
 Everything is a challenge.

 If it doesn't work, one will be wasted, but it's such a small expense.
 You'll never know unless you try.

 I swung the hammer down on the potion and was able to retrieve the material after the bottle broke with a crunch.
 ........so it's back to the herb.
 As an added bonus, the bottle is also a normal material.

 It seems that by combining these things it's possible to create potions.
 I never thought I'd be able to create a potion.

 What's more, it seems to be possible to create potions using only magic.
 .........it looks like we're really going to be able to feed ourselves.

 I'm sure that anything broken by this hammer will be able to be created.
 And if that's the case what about food?
 What about clothes?

 I've seen the potential in all kinds of things I've never looked at before.
 It would be better to break out the things we can do, once and for all.
