“What? Don’t act so haughtily just because I can’t use fireballs anymore! [Firebreath]!”
As she was annoyed, Faruru used the [Firebreath] spell, which was more powerful than [Fireball], on me.
[Firebreath] is basically a dragon spell only. If you compare them by levels, [Fireball] is level 1, and [Firebreath] has about level 7.
The only person in this world who could have exercised more than Level 7 was a brave hero and the first emperor, as told in heroic tales, and he also was a member of a group of sorcerers.
I believe the stories documented in the literature are a lie, especially since tales of heroes who built nations are usually filled with lots of fiction.
So I guess that means humans are basically limited to Level 7.
And for some reason, my slaves keep coming to me, asking me to teach them Level 8 magic and higher. When I see them learning it like nothing, I feel like quitting as a human being. I know it’s beyond broken at this point, and I can’t help but feel like giving up on everything.
I’m not surprised because I’m already living an abnormal daily life where things I can’t tell other people about keep increasing every day.
Sometimes I wonder if just one slave is enough to bring down an entire country, though I’m sure it’s impossible. It must be my imagination.
Thinking of this, I snapped my fingers and cancelled Faruru’s [Firebreath] with [Dissolution].
I’m sure that the sequence of snapping my fingers to cancel out her magic was too cool for her to fawn over me.
I know the feeling. It’s cool to snap your fingers and perform your magic!
“Why is my fire breath being erased? Something is not right?”
Apparently not. Well, I had expected it.
”No, I explained to you that the effect of [Level 2 Water Magic: Dissolution] is to nullify magic, so why are you surprised?”
“Don’t be ridiculous! How can a mere Level 2 water magic nullify my [Firebreath]? There must be something! Hey, what kind of cheating did you do!? Tell me!”
The [Firebreath] must have been an attack that she was very confident of.
She was probably frustrated that it got nullified by a mere level 2 water magic.
