I start to sweat cold because of the anxiety.

Dia doesn"t understand the abnormality of what he has done.

Such magic, I haven"t heard nor seen about it in books or people"s stories.

Perhaps Dia"s magic power of 23 and his attribute magic of 2. Or maybe there are other factors, but I couldn"t think that such numbers could cause this.

In the future battles I will have a person holding a laser gun behind me. Even though I can trust Dia because of his personality and time, I don"t know what may happen. Even if it is without malicious intentions, if there happens to be a misfire, I will end with a hole in my chest.

My coward heart starts to tremble.

"I was able to concentrate on my magic thanks to Christ. Let"s keep this pace!" [Dia]

"I see. But when you shoot your magic be careful. Really, really careful" [Christ]

"Yes! Leave it to me!" [Dia]

Dia seems excited after destroying the monster. It fuels my anxiety.

"Well, let"s go then, I will find the next monster, wait for my instructions, don"t shoot magic selfishly" [Christ]

I expand the area of "Dimension" while keeping an eye on him.

"Okay, follow Christ"s instructions" [Dia]

Dia answers obediently. It seems that he fully trusts in me.

I move while searching for a monster while keeping an eye on the experience value and the MP consumption.

The last hit was made by Dia, but the experience was distributed.

While in battle my MP consumption was 5 and Dia"s was 3.

Dia-san, you are almost perfect, low cost, high power magic.

Low cost and high power. I am afraid that one laser exceeds the amount of energy that a human possesses. The law of conservation of ma.s.s is completely ignored. [1]

"When we turn around this corner we will be able to see the monster" [Christ]

"Okay" [Dia]

I detect the big monster with "Dimension" magic and report it to Dia. After checking the name and the rank of the monster with "Display" and comparing it to ours. It looks like we can do it. It is a spider type monster.

Following the same pattern as before Dia"s magic is cast.

With only that the monster was killed.

"Oh, Christ. I defeated it again" [Dia]

"Well, disappointing…" [Christ]

It was so easy that my past self who was frightened by the labyrinth was so stupid.

I don"t receive any attacks because I use "Dimension" magic for the battle.

When comparing it to a game, it would be like a buff that raises my evasion and hit rate.

And Dia"s "Fire Arrow" is sure-hit overkill because it is too fast to avoid.

I control the pace of the fight and take the best position. So they don"t notice there is someone shooting the "Fire Arrow" magic. And when he is about to finish casting I move diagonally in front of the monster, so Dia has a free shot. There is a possibility that the monster survives. But, because there is a difference between the monster"s level and my level 4 it can"t catch me off-guard and chase after Dia.

We kept defeating the monsters one after another.

"We killed another one without any injuries" [Christ]

"Christ, is it so easy if you have a party for the labyrinth?" [Dia]

Dia asks delighted as he watches the monster that died one-sidedly.

"No, not at all. According to what I have heard from the people who came to the bar, we are the weird ones" [Christ]

"So we are too strong?" [Dia]

That is right. The reason is because Dia"s magic power is too high for a level 1.

However, if I praise Dia, I can"t show my appeal as a partner. If possible I would like to keep this relationship and get Dia"s help.

"Yes, Dia has a talent for magic" [Christ]

"Is that so! Then—" [Dia]

"—However, it is possible because we are compatible" [Christ]

"Compatibility?" [Dia]

Yes, compatibility is the key of this tactic.

"Because I am a mage specialized in searching, we are able to reach such results" [Christ]

"Well, Christ is indeed finding monsters in the dark. And they are far from each other…" [Dia]

"Yes, I find the monsters using magic. So we can"t get ambushed by them. Moreover, we can find a good place for Dia to cast his magic from. And I cover for Dia as he casts his magic. So that way we can win each time" [Christ]

"Well, that is true, if I am alone the monsters will find me before I find them so there isn"t a chance for me to cast my magic, but how does Christ find the enemies? I haven"t heard of such a magic" [Dia]

If I talk about everything he would understand.

Dimension magic "Dimension", and "Display", with these two finding according monsters is easy.

But dimension magic is something I have not heard about when gathering information the past few days. Even "Display" seems to be an ability that only I have. I don"t want any trouble, and it is hard for me to reveal my information.

"It is an old magic that is handed down in my hometown, because it is said to be secret, I can"t tell you the details, but it makes it easier to hunt by finding the monsters" [Christ]

"Oh, so it is a rare skill" [Dia]

It seems that Dia was convinced with my explanation. Well, it is common sense for the adventurers to not reveal their information, so Dia shouldn"t have asked for it.

"However, as its MP consumption is intense, I am 100 times more tired than Dia" [Christ]

"Oh, right, when we are not in battle Christ is using that magic, and while battling too to watch out for monsters" [Dia]

Dia looks sorry.

Alright. It seems that my power was understood and I won his favor.

"I will talk when my MP is about to be depleted, well from the start it was supposed to end early because I have to work at the bar" [Christ]

"I see. Then let"s go a bit further and beat a stronger monster" [Dia]

"Okay, I have heard about strong monsters when I was at the bar, so I know where to go" [Christ]

"Yes! Let"s go!" [Dia]

And when I use "Display" the rank is seen. So I will know when a monster is too strong for us, and go along with Dia"s idea.

We went along the same pattern and won over and over again while exploring the labyrinth for around 2 hours.

Just the MC talking about human"s heat source to condensed in the laser that Dia shoot. Return to reading
