Cheat Magician Life That Started From Being Judged Useless

Specter and Skeleton Knights

***---***

Although I was judged to be useless by the 'Evil Eye Crystal', I realized that I also had magical power, and my mood rose rapidly.

I called out ten skeletons at once and even healed my wounds where the internal organs popped out, isn't it a pretty high spec?

I tried to ride the moment and traverse the forest with the skeleton escorts, but the skeletons were not enthusiastic.

"Maybe you can't leave the land with a spiritual tether-like feeling?

[ No, we have no problem following Kent-sama, but our strength is a little ... ... ]

No, I feel that the wording of 'following' was also strange.

"What do you mean by strength?"

[ If you go ahead, you will see ogres, saber-toothed tigers, etc. In that case, the current us will not be able to protect Kent-sama. ]

"Hmm ... Is there a way?"

[ If you strengthen us, I think there will be no problem. ]

"I see, it's strengthening, isn't it? What should I do?"

[ The enhancement of monsters is basically to take in the magic stones of other monsters. ]

"Take in magic stones?"

[ That's why, you should choose three of us and take in the rest along with the goblin magic stones to strengthen us. ]

"What? Is that okay?"

[ No problem. ]

"What happens to those who have had their magic stones taken?"

[ We are no longer humans, so we will just disappear. ]

"No, no no, that's a problem, it's a big problem."

[ No problem. ]

Reinhardt-san, who said that it was decided, was rather repulsive.

"I can't forgive you for having just met, then disappearing in the form of cannibalism!"

Reinhardt-san nodded when as he understood why I resented his words.

[ Kent-sama, it's not cannibalistic. ]

"Then what do you mean ..."

[ We are already wandering around in a world apart from usual human beings, and disappearing means that we will return to our original form and ascend to heaven. ]

"Isn't that a bad thing?"

[ On the contrary, Kent-sama, would you mind sending everyone? ]

"But then, isn't it better to send them all together?"

[ The remaining ones of us will take over the will of the deceased and protect you, which is also an honor. ]

Speaking of which, a skeleton is certainly like a ghost wandering around the world.

Defeating a skeleton also means making it ascend.

I decided to send everyone else to heaven, leaving behind three people, Reinhardt-san, who was the captain of the unit, Basten-san, who was the commander of the unit, and Fred-san.

I stood in front of the eight skeletons lined up.

If you took a closer look, everyone has missing bones and no arms here and there.

I don't know if it was last night's battle or a long time ago.

I don't know, but I'm sure that they responded to my call and fought to protect me in such a state of full-blown wounds.

"Thank you everyone, because you came to help me, I am ..."

The skeletons, who were supposed to be terrifying monsters, felt warm watching over me, as tears overflowed and my words couldn't continue.

[ Don't cry, Kent-sama, we're going thanks to Kent-sama. ]

[ That's right, I'm sure I would still be wandering if Kent-sama hadn't called me. ]

[ Oh yeah, I'm sure my family and friends are waiting over there. ]

[ So please smile and send me. ]

In my eyes clouded with tears, the smiles of the rugged and gentle men were reflected.

"Yes ... Thank you very much, everyone, please take a rest."

I'm sure it's a terrible face with tears and a runny nose, but I still smiled as hard as I could and saw everyone off.

[ See you captain, I'm going first, thank you for your help. ]

[ The commander is fine, and he's dead, right? ]

[ You guys, if you die over there, tell my family, and if you finish protecting Kent-sama's life, you'll die. ]

[ I will protect Kent-sama until our parting. ]

[ Oh, leave it to me! ]

[ Then, see you over there. ]

[ Ah, see you again. ]

I'm still not sure how to use necromancy, but when I pray from the bottom of my heart that they should die for my family and friends, the eight skeletons are wrapped in warm light and glittering particals. Then they disappeared.

After they left, eight clear magic stones were left behind.

Collecting the magic stones left by the everyone in the skeleton unit and the magic stones recovered from the goblin corpses, I immediately strengthened Reinhardt-san, Basten-san, and Fred-san.

There are 15 magic stones in all, so 5 per person.

"By the way, how do you take in magic stones?"

[ Some monsters eat them, but in our case, it feels like it's pressed against the chest and absorbed. ]

Certainly, a skeleton has no esophagus, and it's too scary to be pictorially bitten.

"So what should I do?"

[ Please help with necromancy, Kent-sama. ]

"Even if I'm told to help, I'm not conscious of necromancy, so what should I do ..."

[ That's right, it's okay to have the image of us after becoming stronger. ]

Speaking of skeletons that have been strengthened, the main thing is to strengthen the material of the skeleton, and after that, it feels like power-ups of movement and weapons.

In that case, it's better to ask about the fighting style of the three people in their lifetime.

That's why I will listen to the three people, solidify the image, and carry out reinforcement.

"Then, I want to solidify the image concretely, so let's strengthen it one by one."

[ Understood. ]

"First from Reinhardt-san."

[ Oh, thank you. ]

Reinhardt-san is said to have been a power type with the second name, 'Grand Arm' during his lifetime.

Therefore, let's go with the mirror processing of heavy and hard tungsten.

Why do I know that tungsten is heavy? That's the common sense of Chuni.

"Then, I'll help you with the image, so start taking in the magic stones."

[ Then, let's get started. ]

When he started taking in the magic stones I sent the magical power and image into his body, the black mist began to cover Reinhardt-san's body.

At first, the mist that was thin gradually darker, and eventually it became a dark color that seemed to swallow even the surrounding light, and even purple lightning started running inside, hey ... is it okay?

I was scared by the power, but I couldn't expose the pitiful figure as a summoner, so I did my best, even though I was a little bit scared.

Eventually, the dark mist gathered in a condensed manner, and after the flashy thunderstorm burned the field of vision, a metallic skeleton carrying a jet-black sword stood there.

"Th-This is... ..."

[ Around three times as bad as before ... ]

"Yeah, I'm definitely confident that I'll be incontinent if I meet that at night."

Even if you don't have the knowledge of martial arts and magic, you can see something like an aura, and you can see the atmosphere that makes you feel it's dangerous at a glance.

Basten-san, who has a long relationship with him, is so overpowered that he can't help but say nothing.

Reinhardt-san seems to be checking his new physical condition by opening and closing his hands and turning his shoulders.

And when he picked up the big sword that he was carrying on his back ...

"Zuoriya~!"

With a spirited cry, he stepped towards a tree at a speed that seemed to make his body blurred, and swung the big sword on his right shoulder at once.

Dogaaaaaa ... ...

It feels like it's exploding rather than slashing, and the trunk, which is thick enough to be held by about three adults, disappeared.

"Wow ... what's that?"

[ No, I guess Kent-sama helped me. ]

[ Literally ... a monster ... ]

The three of us reacted to the flashy destruction that Reinhardt-san showed us.

[ Buhahahaha it's wonderful, this body is wonderful! ]

That? Reinhardt-san, hasn't your character changed?

When I turned my eyes to Basten-san and Fred-san, they shrugged together and made a pose.

The skeleton in the hand-held pose has good taste, doesn't it?

Oh, I see, that's the ground, or rather, you've been catty until now.

Reborn? As for Reinhardt-san, I've done a lot too much, Tehepero.

But in the future, I have to live in a different world, so I can't be escorted by a weak escort, so I will take the plunge and overdo it.

That's why the other two also have to be strengthened.

Basten-san is said to have been a master of spears with the second name, 'Burning Fire' during his lifetime.

He's good at continuous piercing, so I imagined light and hard titanium.

A sandblasted matte titanium-colored skeleton, also holding a jet-black spear, appears from the dark mist.

"Shaaaa!"

The jet-black spear's tip made a large hole of about 1m in the big tree, and even pierced the trees that stood behind.

It's too fast to follow with my eyes at all, but did the spear grow? Or is it something like a shock-wave?

I don't understand the meaning of a long-range attack with a spear, but ... well, it's okay because it's an ally.

Fred-san was a twin sword user who had the second name, 'Instant Slash', so I imagined a light and supple composite carbon fiber.

A skeleton with a carbon black resin luster, carrying a jet-black twin sword, stood as if it was natural he had been there from the beginning once the dark mist had left.

I heard that the power to imagine magic is important, but even so, necromancy, darkness magic, it's too amazing.

"Shhh!"

The twin swords swung with a quiet sound cut through the nearby huge rock like tofu.

What is it made of that sword or spear? Unknown substance? Dark matter?

The three skeletons that are all happily showing off with swords and spears is too scary, but I definitely don't want to turn them into enemies.

When I was thinking about that, the three of them lined up side by side and came towards me.

Then, when they came in front of me, they knelt down and bowed their heads to me.

Didn't you notice that I took a half step involuntarily with such force?

[ A wonderful body and weapons, I'm always grateful. ]

[ The three of us, Kent-sama, will follow you and protect you. ]

[ You have our swords and spear ... ]

"I'm an unreliable Lord, but thank you."

[ Huh! ]

I'm hungry after strengthening the three people, could you feed me something?

When I complained of hunger, Reinhardt noticed something and looked up at the sky.

[ Basten, just right, it's a bird, kill it! ]

[ Roger that! Shah! ]

Basten thrusts his jet-black spear towards a bird that arrives at the right time.

Will it reach such a high place? It exploded and feathers sprinkled.

"Wow, it's amazing, it can reach such a high place ... but if it explodes, you can't eat it."

[ Hmm ... I'm sorry. ]

The power has improved, but the adjustment seems to be too sweet, and when I'm in a battle with a monster in the future, I'm afraid that if I get sick, I'll be caught up and die.

I wonder if these people will fight with me in mind.

In the end, we gave up on birds and I was filled with fruits again.

Ah, it's delicious, but it's a vegetarian different world.

After this, three people asked me to name their weapons.

Oh, after all their partner needs a name.

However, the names that come to mind in Chuunibyo are generally fixed.

"The sword of Reinhardt-san is Gram."

[ Huh. ]

"Basten-san's spear is Gae Bulg."

[ Huh. ]

"Fred-san's twin swords are Laevateinn and Dáinsleif."

[ Hah. ]

When I gave the weapons a name, the three grinned and laughed with their respective weapons in their hands.

Well, I've come to understand the facial expressions of the three people, but I wonder if it's due to familiarity.
