I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

Chapter 324

Ordinary steel is not suitable for guiding magic power, nor does it have the effect of enhancing magic power. Just like an insulating object cannot conduct electricity, forcing magic to be cast with steel weapons will only be ineffective.

Various types of gems are often used at the tip of the staff. The reason is that the gems have excellent magic guiding ability and the magic power flows smoothly inside.

It even has the effect of concentrating the quality of magic power like a magnifying glass concentrating sunlight. This is why traditional magicians always use similar weapons.

No one will use ordinary long swords and guns as a medium for casting spells just to show off. This is meaningless!

Even Elena, who is equally good as a swordsman and a magician, usually uses a staff. When she needs to use a sword, she only condenses the magic power into an elemental sword. It is absolutely impossible to use a sword to cast a spell.

But obviously Serita is not an ordinary person. Her lack of common sense is simply destructive. She really casts magic with the blade, and the type of magic looks very special.

It was partly softened with the fighting spirit. It was not quite accurate to call it magic, after all, it contained some fighting skills.

It was definitely not a skill absorbed from the monster. This was a move created by Serita, a move that mixed magic and fighting spirit.

"How is it, Elena? My performance was not bad, right?!"

After killing all the goblins with one blow, Serita put away her sword and walked towards Elena.

Just like the feeling she gave people, Serita was unexpectedly childish. She was eager to be praised after performing. The expectant eyes made Elena dare not look directly at her.

"Are you stupid?"

However, the next second Elena directly poured cold water on Serita, and the compliment did not come as she wished.

"Huh?"

Serita was stunned for a moment. She did not expect that she would be scolded. She thought she performed well. She could deal with weak monsters like goblins in one go. It was not too much to be praised, right?

Ignoring Selita, who was speechless with shock, Elena walked up to her, pulled out the long sword she had just put away, and looked at it in the sunlight.

As expected, there were a lot of cracks all over the sword. Although they were all very shallow marks, the damage was visible to the naked eye.

If Selita used the same method a few more times, no matter how solid it was, it would break into pieces. This sword simply couldn't withstand the flow of magic.

"What's wrong with you that you can use a sword to cast magic?"

Elena was speechless. In addition to playing a guiding role, using a sword as a medium would greatly reduce the consumption of magic power and the power of magic. The effect was even worse than casting a spell with bare hands.

But on the bright side, Selita's magic was particularly powerful. She was already so powerful with a sword, wouldn't it be even more powerful to cast a spell with a proper staff?

"Is there anything wrong?"

Celita tilted her head after coming back to her senses. Her blue hair trembled with her movements, making her look particularly calm like the blue waves.

But Elena's mood was not calm at all, and it could even be said that it was turbulent. She explained to Serita in a rather impatient tone.

"...Forcing the sword to cast spells is why your weapon is so easily damaged. When you practiced at home, did no one correct your behavior?"

After saying that, Elena suddenly realized that maybe Serita's family deliberately let her cast spells with the sword all the time. After all, casting magic in such an extreme environment can exercise the control of magic power.

If you can successfully cast spells on the sword, then switching to a proper staff will definitely greatly improve in all aspects, which can also be regarded as a training method.

Of course, it is also possible that Elena thought too much. Serita's family might simply want to use the wrong education method to frustrate Serita. If she works hard for a long time but the magic she casts is not as good as others, she will become disappointed and give up improving her strength. In the end, she will accept her "mediocrity" and learn etiquette to get married.

But I didn't expect Serita's talent to be a bit terrifying. She succeeded in casting the spell under such negative conditions and walked a path that no one had ever walked.

"But... I'm not used to using a staff. I still prefer to use a sword."

Even if she figured out the reason, Serita didn't seem to want to give up using a sword. After all, her father was an adventurer who used a sword. Serita, who admired such an opponent, didn't want to change weapons.

"Then switch to a rune sword made of special materials. This rare weapon is specially used for magic swordsmen like you. It just needs to be made of special metals., these rare metals that can support the circulation of magic power are not cheap, and your hundreds of gold coins may not be enough. "

Elena said unhappily, things are valuable because they are rare, even if the effect of the rune sword is not necessarily better than that of an ordinary staff or sword, but because of its special nature and the preciousness of the materials used, the price is really terrifying.

Generally, only nobles who are interested in making such weapons will show off in front of their friends. Warriors who really fight with each other will not bother to make these fancy things.

And it is very difficult to make a rune sword. There are probably not many blacksmiths in the Kingdom of Sorens who can make it. Melissa's father may be able to do it, but he is not good at engraving runes, so he needs to find someone else to help.

"Rune sword? ! It sounds great, I want it! "

Selita really wanted a weapon that would not break. She was really fed up with the long sword she took from home breaking all the time.

She always thought it was her problem and it was indeed her problem, but these problems could be solved by changing the weapon.

In her opinion, if she could change to a handy weapon, it would be worth it even if she spent all her money.

"Just think about it. I'm not saying no."

Looking at the excited Selita, Elena's heart was calm. This thing is not so easy to find. Even if you really have the money to buy it, it is difficult to find it.

"Put aside the idea of ​​wanting a rune sword and do the job in front of you first. Hunting monsters is not just about killing the opponent, but also digging out their ears. "

Said in a commanding tone, Elena had not forgotten the commotion that Serita and the uncle had caused when she first arrived at the guild.

An adventurer who couldn't even strip the materials was completely out of the question of being qualified, a point that had to be crossed no matter what.

Sure enough, hearing Elena's words, Serita showed a rather disgusted expression. In addition to her meaningless insistence, she seemed to dislike the touch of cutting a corpse.
