(Ichigo Male OC x Konosuba) A Substitute Shinigami In This Wonderful World

Chapter 4: M

Talking: "Two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I am not yet completely sure about the universe."

Thoughts: 'The FitnessGram Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal bodeboop. A sing lap should be completed every time you hear this sound. ding Remember to run in a straight line and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark.'

Announcement/Move: "Shatter, Kyoka Suigetsu."

Enjoy : )

Ichigo's POV

Aqua: "Wah... I smell like fish..."

Ichigo: "I am well aware of that."

Megumin: "It’s smelly inside the frog, but the warm feeling isn’t too bad..."

Ichigo: "I WISH i wasn't aware of that."

So after that mess of a quest, we strolled back to the guild to get our rewards. Since Kazuma was the one who contributed the least, i had him carry Megumin.

Apparently, If someone used magic that exceeded his or her mana capacity, it’d drain his or her life force to make up for the difference.

If it drains too much, it could lead to your death.

Ichigo: "From now on, explosion magic’s banned unless there’s an emergency. Please get by with your other spells from now on, Megumin."

Megumin: "...I can't."

...What?

Ichigo: "Sorry, could you say that again?"

Megumin: "I can only use Explosion Magic, I don't know any other spells."

Kazuma: "Seriously?"

Megumin: "...Seriously."

So she's literally just a one-hit-wonder?

Aqua: "What do you mean you only know Explosion? If you had enough skill points to learn Explosion, you must’ve learned other spells, right?"

Skill points? What are those? Can we eat them?

Kazuma: "What are skill points?" Seems Kazuma had the same question.

Aqua: "Skill points are something you earn when you choose a job; it’s used to learn skills. The more potential a person has, the more skill points they start out with. You can learn all sorts of skills by investing skill points in them. For example, the excellent me has learned all the banquet party tricks as well as all the spells of an Archpriest."

... I'm gonna give her the benefit of the doubt and assume since she's a goddess (meaning her skill points are maxed out, hopefully) she had enough skill points to spare for extra skills.

Aqua: "Depending on the person and the job, there are restrictions to the skills they may learn. For example, someone with a fear of water would need more points to learn water or ice elemental spells... However, as detonation-series magic consists of composite spells, you’d need deep knowledge of fire and wind magic to master it. This means that people who can learn detonation magic should be able to easily learn other spells."

...Please don't tell me i just needed to look at my Adventurer's Card to unlock Shikai, that would be embarrassing to myself...

Kazuma: "This means that it doesn’t make sense to be unable to learn low-tier spells when you know high-tier magic from the detonation-series... Anyway, where can you make use of banquet party tricks?" Once more, Kazuma was thinking of the same thing as i am. Truly, great minds think alike.
