So I get that we gotta be wary of that ghost-like triangle hat's high Offensive Magic level, but what are Support Magic and Spirit Magic?

<>

Sorry uh, can you start from explaining what those Spirits are? Are they like some sort spiritual beings of the great mother nature?

<>

I'm still not sure I understand... Well guess it doesn't matter for now.

In short, this Spirit Magician can use magic that deploy Spirits huh.

Seeing as it's got 'Spirit' on its name, is this thing one too?

<>

Ah, really. Well, it looks more like a ghost than a spirit after all. No, I'm not talking about my mind ghost.

Now then, it would be best if we went with another ambush, but this thing should make for a good practice considering we've never fought this type before.

"That thing specializes in magic. It's got Level 6 Offensive Magic and also Level 2 Support Magic."

"Its Offensive Magic, is higher level than mine..."

...Huh? Is she feeling competitive?

"Err, going with an ambush is probably safer for us, but since we've never fought this type before and all, you up for a frontal assault? It'll be a good practice."

"Un. Let's do it. I wanna compare which one of us is better with magic."

Don't tell me, Alma actually has a competitive spirit.

She must have always felt inferior during her days as Apprentice Paladin, and suppressed that side of her thinking she'd lose anyway, but now that she's got her confidence, her real nature comes out. A good thing I believe.

Same with me, when people told me I don't have Skills or my Stats are garbage, I would... wait, I kept acting rash. Guess everything gotta be in moderation.

"Then first, I'll get in melee range to test the water, you can start shooting magic when the coast is clear. But if it looks dangerous, we're retreating to the portal at once."

"Got it. Don't be reckless now."

"Of course."

Time to get close.

I slowly made my way so the Spirit Magician would notice me.

Hello there, how do you do?

『!』

Oh, it noticed me.

I could tell it went into battle mode. Holding its staff aloft, ready to shoot spells anytime.

As I kept pressing forward, it emitted bloodlust and hostility before casting a spell.

First it buffed itself huh. Taking all the precautions to gain an advantage, this thing's pretty adept at fighting.

Then it proceeded to fly in a hard to predict trajectory, seemingly to avoid its movement being read.
