For Adventurers, Magic Guidance is the power that causes supernatural phenomena.
In common perception, it is a very powerful force; usually, activating Magic Guidance requires chanting and consuming corresponding mental energy, and the longer the chanting time, the greater the power.
An Adventurer with Magic Guidance means they can become a core role in a team.
After all, mages are popular everywhere; many difficult situations that need to be overcome can often be solved with just one Magic Guidance for them.
The Magic Guidance Asta first displayed, which could be activated just by speaking its name, had already greatly shocked and envied Raul.
But compared to the current situation, it was completely insignificant, not even comparable.
That strike just now definitely unleashed power beyond his level; it was simply incomparable to what those LV1 Adventurers could achieve.
The passage of the cavern within his sight was almost completely destroyed, and lingering smoke and dust carried scattered specks of glittering starlight, while everything around them looked as if it had been ransacked by a typhoon.
The swarm of killing ants was annihilated by the previous attack, and even the magic stones they dropped on the ground were shattered.
The magic stones dropped by monsters in the Dungeon can be shattered.
When subjected to a strong attack, magic stones will break, but correspondingly, the power contained within them will also disappear.
In fact, shattering magic stones is the most effective way to kill monsters, but very few Adventurers do so.
Because such an act is no different from personally tearing up all the money one has earned.
It would not only make a day’s hard work go to waste but also put one in a predicament of having no money to use.
Asta also used this Magic Guidance of his for the first time; perhaps he underestimated the power of the Magic Guidance, as he hadn’t expected a single strike to almost shatter even the magic stones.
Originally, he had thought of activating Orionids and, relying on the enhancement brought by this enchantment, going on a rampage among the killing ants…
However, the reality was that the opponent was done for, one-shotted~
Lingering wisps of smoke remained on the tragically devastated cavern floor; Raul, adhering to the principle of not wasting anything, picked up a killing ant magic stone that had flown nearby.
The magic stone was still radiating high heat and had cracks on its surface; as soon as he held it, it turned to ash like completely burned charcoal.
Twitching the corner of his mouth, Raul looked at Asta, who was awkwardly carrying his spear and walking over, and couldn’t help but say:
“The magic stones were directly destroyed…
It seems there won’t be any gains from this battle; those killing ants probably didn’t escape unscathed.”
“By the way, is your Magic Guidance really the strength an LV1 should have?
I feel like ‘exaggerated’ isn’t even enough to describe it!”
“Ahem, it’s my first time using it~ I didn’t know beforehand.”
“…”
Instantly, Raul fell silent.
“My first time using it,” indeed.
He also wanted to experience the feeling of casting Magic Guidance…
Originally, Raul, as an LV4 Adventurer, had enough savings to buy a Magic Guidance book to awaken Magic Guidance.
However, reality was very cruel.
Due to some reasons, he had spent all his savings, temporarily shattering his dream of Magic Guidance.
Now, he could only look at Asta with envious eyes.
After dealing with the batch of killing ants that appeared upon their arrival on the seventh floor, the refresh rate of killing ants returned to normal, and they didn’t encounter another scale comparable to a small Monster Feast.
For what it’s worth, the good news was that…
The silver-gray spear in Asta’s hand, as a backup weapon personally commissioned by Loki’s captain, Finn, was very sturdy.
Even the hard shells of the killing ants, without activating Magic Guidance, Asta could easily pierce them with the spear’s sharpness.
There were no signs of the difficulties a new Adventurer typically faces when first exploring the Dungeon on him.
So, having good equipment is truly important for an Adventurer.
Just like a certain protagonist in the original work.
Before obtaining those two hundred million Krypton Gold little black knives, fighting monsters was also very difficult and laborious.
But after obtaining the two hundred million black knives, he was like a changed person, clearing the Dungeon like cutting melons and vegetables with two quick slashes.
Perhaps this is the power of an RMB Adventurer, terrifying as such!
…
“Pfft—!”
The sound of a monster’s body being pierced rang out, and the next second, the Metal Rabbit, which had leaped up to attack, lost its life, and its Magic Stone fell to the ground.
Asta let out a long breath, and fueled by his excitement, he explored the Dungeon almost non-stop.
Even he felt a bit tired after such a long period of fighting.
Although his progress had only just reached the end of the seventh layer.
But that was because he wanted to familiarize himself with the upper layers’ environment, so he and Raul took many detours.
Commonly known as, memorizing the map.
After all, if you don’t memorize the map well in a Maze, are you just waiting to get lost later?
“Tsk tsk, Metal Rabbit fur, killing ants’ claws…
So many drops, plus a pile of rare materials in the backpack, hiss…
I have to say, I’m envious.”
Saying he was envious, Raul, who was following behind Asta, smacked his lips and shook his head.
Based on his experience, Asta’s Dungeon haul today could completely put those Lv1 veterans who had been active in the first few layers for years to shame.
“Why be envious?
You also have a share in these gains.”
Putting away his spear, Asta came to Raul’s side.
“Ah, it’s different~ Judging from your strange luck, the dropped items are the main part of today’s gains, and the value of all those Magic Stones might not compare to the profit brought by the dropped items.”
Raul sighed.
“Oh?
Is my brother regretting it?”
Asta asked teasingly.
As early as when they first entered the Dungeon, they had agreed that the Magic Stone gains from today’s Dungeon exploration would be split fifty-fifty.
Although he was the one who had been fighting, Asta had no objection to this distribution.
Firstly, Raul and he were companions of the Familia, people from the same big family, so there was no need to argue over such matters.
Secondly, as a Supporter, Raul’s role was not to be underestimated.
Supporters in Orario had a relatively special position, complementing Adventurers.
They were non-combatants who entered the Maze with Adventurers.
They were responsible for luggage, spare weapons, potions, item support, and Magic Stone recovery, and were a very important asset to the team.
When danger occasionally arose, they would also provide long-range cover with bows, traps, and other items, serving as teammates to whom one could entrust their back.
If Raul hadn’t been responsible for clearing the battlefield along the way, Asta wouldn’t have been able to explore and fight so recklessly.
Having to personally walk back to pick up Magic Stones and dropped items after a battle…
Just thinking about it was troublesome~
However, Raul’s share of the gains did not include dropped items.
Because Raul initially thought that Asta was a newcomer, and it was already very difficult for him to occasionally get a dropped item, so he didn’t prepare to contend with him.
But now…
“Yes, I regret it a bit.
So many dropped items, to be honest, I’m craving them~”
Without any attempt to hide his thoughts, Raul nodded honestly.
At this moment, Asta patted his shoulder and said in a comforting tone.
“It’s okay, once I convert these dropped items into cash, you’ll regret it even more and crave them even more!”
