The rising of the Shield Hero X One piece

The Rising of the Sword Hero part 7

The magic shop was the same as he remembered it. Exotic energies still spilled out of it like normal and business seemed to be non-existent.

Zoro and Rifana had visited the shop a few days ago to find Rifana's affinities, Lightning and Wind magic.

They were about to head out of town again, but a question from the night before made him come here. Specifically, what kind of magic I can use and how can I utilize it.

They were here to ask that today.

It seemed that there were others in the store that day, as his sharp hearing could pick up talking from inside. Not thinking of it, he opened the door and stepped inside with Rifana.

"... have an affinity for healing and support magic, Shield Hero." The shop owner stated as they walked in, causing them to pause, "And the young lady has light and dark magic affinities. She is half raccoon after all. I recommend she learn illusion magic and the like."

Not noticing the swordsman and his companion, the shop owner grabbed a book from a shelf under the desk and held it out to the Shield Hero.

Seeing the book, a sorry expression came over Naofumi's face, "I'm afraid we don't have the money to buy a magic grimoire."

Zoro stepped forward, "Then allow me to pitch in."

All of the occupants of the shop turned to his voice in surprise, before the shop owner shook her head, "No, no. It's free, as thanks for helping my grandkid. I actually would've loved to give you a crystal ball instead."

Huh?" Was all the Shield Hero said to the statement, and zoro also had to wonder why a crystal ball would have been better.

"Don't you know?" The woman asked after seeing their expressions, "If you use a crystal ball, you can learn one of the magics sealed in it."

"First I've heard of that." Naofumi stated out loud as zoro muttered the same thing, causing Rifana to giggle quietly. Her face fell slightly at the shop owner's next statement.

"But I heard that the royal court ordered a bunch of them for the heroes." The woman stated, confusing zoro.

I bet they handed them out to every hero but me." Naofumi stated before turning to zoro Is that how you learned that kind of magic.

The swordsman shook his head, "No, I never got any crystal balls. To be fair though, I didn't stick around very long."

Plus that wasn't magic it was a technique that was brought over from my world.

The Shield Hero nodded silently at the statement before accepting the magical grimoire from the shop owner.

"Learning magic from a grimoire is hard, but if you keep at it, you can learn as many spells as you want." The woman stated happily, "Do your best!"

Naofumi and Raphtalia smiled, "Thank you." The Shield Hero stated.

Having finished that conversation, the shop owner turned to zoro And what can I do for you Sword Hero? Are you perhaps looking for more magic grimoires for you and your companion?"

Zoro chuckled lightly while he shook his head and stepped up to the counter, "No, we are doing fine with the one you've given us already. I just wanted to know what kind of magic I have.

The shop owner raised an eyebrow, just stand still and I'll tell you your magic affinities." Zoro did as asked and the witch put her hand on her crystal ball.

The ball glowed faintly, not quite casting a light but still noticeable.

Hmm," The witch started, "It seems like you have affinity for Null magic."
