Volume 1, 15: It Seems I can Learn any Magic
Title [Whatever Goes] leveled up!
Current LV: 3
Resistance increased by 30 points.
What the hell, once again, the system did not forget to drop a retort on me! That bastard!
“Are you performing an act or something? Why were you suddenly happy, then a little angry, and then frustrated..?”
Dale asked weirdly.
“Ah? Hahaha, it’s nothing. That.. I should be an ice-type.”
After saying that, I took out my Knight Sword, and used my Ice Sword Summon.
A blue sword once again appeared in my hands. The sword was enveloped in a faint light, and a cold air slowly spreaded to my arm.
“Oh, Enchantment-type Magic? If you’re able to enchant it on a sword, what about other weapons?”
“I haven’t tried it out yet.”
“I see..”
Dale pondered for a moment, and then ran to the next room. After a good long while, he took out a small box.
“This is.. something I found that is closest to a gun.”
He took the box and pointed it at a candle a good distance away. With a puff, the candle split into two pieces instantly. A miniature sword was stabbed into the wall.
“That’s a hidden weapon, right?”
“You try.”
After dispelling the magic sword in my hand, I took the box.
I tried using the method of activating the Ice Sword Summon in my mind.
....
“No effect?”
I said as I threw the box onto the table.
“Oh.. So it can only be a sword?”
Dale said with a pity.
“That’s not certain yet.. From the looks of it, that item did say that it was not enchantable. That’s probably why.”
“Not enchantable, is it.. Alright, then I will pass you some magic skill books first.”
In this case, he managed to find them instantly from inside a cupboard.
“This is Basic Grade, Intermediate Grade and Advanced Grade Ice Magic respectively. You can learn them from just opening them, right?”
“Yeah.”
I picked up the 3 books, and flipped them open. After a while, the system window opened.

“This is so convenient..”
“You’re right, since it’s an RPG.”
Dale shrugged.
“Then if you have the chance, remember to level up your skills. This will increase your ability and the strength of your spells.”
“You’re right.. But, before war starts, we should find something else to do. Or else, it will be boring.”
“I have a proposal.”
Dale said with a smile.
“I was afraid to go alone before, but with 2 people, then that resurrection scroll can be of use.”
“Resurrection scroll!”
I immediately rushed in front of him.
“There’s actually something like that!?”
“Of course..”
Dale was a little shocked as he looked at me.
“Isn’t it normal to resurrect in an RPG?”
“.. You’re right.”
He was right. It’s normal to resurrect in an RPG. But, since I came into this world, I felt that dying was still dangerous.
“But, you said earlier.. that it can only be used with 2 people. What’s the problem?”
“That.. Because the resurrection scroll can only be used on someone else. Also, this thing is expensive. The NPCs here.. How do I put it.. Even though they are AI, I can’t trust them. What if they take my resurrection scroll and run off?”
“I see.. Oh right, what happens if we die without a resurrection scroll?”
“Who knows..”
Dale helplessly shrugged.
“Something that dangerous is something I won’t risk my life for.”
“Is that so..”
Looks like all of us don’t have that experience..
“But, where are you planning to go?”
“Ah, that..”
Dale mysteriously laughed, and took out a map.
“This is something I got off the black market. Those people can’t even understand these words, but for some weird reasons that I can’t comprehend, I’m able to understand them.. This is a map of a three-floored underground dungeon below the capital!”
“An underground dungeon..”
As expected, if there isn’t a dungeon to grind in, it won’t be like an RPG at all.
