Looking at the second brother with a regretful expression, Miguel kicked him.
He looked at me and raised his hands to indicate that I didn’t know what he meant, but he didn’t seem to believe it.
The second brother, who was usually annoying, laughed meaningfully at this moment.
A person with high magic power is not a person who has a large amount of magic stored in his body, but a person who can absorb a large amount of magic and circulate it.
It is said that the key to high magic power is the thickness of the magic veins and the efficiency of absorbing magic elements.
Although the mechanism of how the body absorbs magic elements is unknown, it may be similar to cardiopulmonary function.
Candidates for the "Awakening Instrument" selected by the Knights have the natural ability to absorb large amounts of magic and circulate it.
The level of magic power is trained and improved through the continuous use of magic. During the period of physical development, the magic power will also increase.
So, I just kept using magic.
By the way, depletion of magic power does not mean that the body's magic elements are exhausted, but that the endurance of magic power is exhausted.
Even if you can use powerful magic instantly, if your stamina runs out during battle, you will no longer be able to cast magic.
In addition to the continuous use of magic exercises, there are also some rumored methods similar to those of Carissa from the Medicine House, such as directly eating the heart of a monster that has just been defeated.
It is said that monsters store magic elements in the form of magic stones and transport them throughout their bodies to strengthen their bodies.
The monster's heart is close to the magic stone, and blood containing a large amount of magic elements is transported throughout the body.
Therefore, the monster's heart contains a large amount of magic element.
Eating the hearts of monsters can quickly absorb a large amount of magic and enhance the ability to circulate magic, but Carissa strictly prohibits this attempt.
In Fatimidism, eating the flesh of monsters is taboo.
It is not uncommon to eat monster meat, but the blood must be removed and completely cooked before it can be eaten.
For me, a person reincarnated from China, it feels like a conspiracy designed by the church to prevent parasites from entering the body.
Although I want to give it a try, the key point is that the monster doesn't look easy to deal with.
For the physically disadvantaged cat people, even the little monster goblins are dangerous monsters.
Two years ago I started going to the mountains alone to collect herbs.
Although I was careful not to encounter monsters when I entered the mountain, I once encountered a goblin attack.
While collecting herbs that day, I met three goblins.
Fortunately, I was under the wind and noticed their presence earlier than the goblins, so I planned to climb a tree to hide.
The goblins showed no warning and walked toward the tree where I was while making sounds.
I thought they were passing by, but one of them stopped and started sniffing around.
The other two also lay on the ground and crawled forward until they reached the root of the tree where I was.
It seems they sensed my scent.
I hid close to the tree trunk, but one of the goblins started climbing up the trunk, and I had to run away.
Fortunately, there was a dense forest around me. I used my cat-man physical ability to jump from one branch to another and escape the pursuit.
"It's really troublesome"
I thought I would be able to get rid of them easily, but the goblin that climbed up the tree chased after me, while the other two looked up from the ground and caught up with me.
Although Cat People are physically flexible and agile, their stamina is a concern.
If you continue like this, you may run out of stamina and become the prey of goblins.
But every time I went into the mountains, I was careful to avoid encountering monsters, and I never neglected how to deal with them when I encountered them.
In order to break through the siege of goblins, I quickly changed my direction and jumped from the tree.
Through the forest of scrub, ran along the slope of the river bank, and finally jumped into the gap of a large rock.
The rock was only wide enough for me to pass through, and the goblins couldn't get in.
I call it Screen Rock. It looks like a screen inserted on a slope. The upper part is a cliff, which is extremely difficult to climb.
And because it protrudes into the river, you can only take a detour along the wet vertical rock walls.
To reach the lower reaches of the river safely, the only way is to return to the river bank and then go around.
After getting rid of the goblins, I followed the river back to the village and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Monsters and beasts seem to be aware of the danger of being hunted, so they rarely appear near the village.
I found a place like Screen Rock just in case, otherwise I might become food for the goblins.
Viewed from the village, the mountain to the north is the Ping Feng Rock, the mountain to the east is the tunnel of truffles, and the mountain to the west is the charcoal hut. I have prepared several places to hide.
Since that time, I've gotten a little bigger and can use magic, but I still don't have the confidence to defeat the goblins alone.
Although empty attribute magic becomes more and more comfortable with practice, it also has a fatal flaw.
Condensed air is too light for use as a weapon.
Even if it attacks the tree trunk in sword form, it cannot cause deep wounds.
The sword itself is lightweight, and my own weight is not heavy, so the slashes become very light.
This kind of force cannot even cut through hard skin and muscles, and it is difficult to inflict fatal injuries.
If they were shaped like spears, they might be able to inflict deeper wounds than swords, but they would be difficult to defeat if they couldn't accurately grasp their vital points.
And goblins usually move in groups.
Three is considered a small number, and many times they will be in groups, or even a dozen.
It is simply crazy to deal with multiple goblins when you are not sure whether you can defeat one alone.
If you can't defeat them, you can only think about how to escape.
I am now focusing on improving my stepping technique.
The original tread was a smooth board, but I machined the surface to give it a better grip.
I also tweaked the material to add elasticity and bounce similar to a track field.
By improving the material, it became almost impossible to slip, so I started training on accurate stepping.
At first, I set the steps, then took one step, then set the next step, and so on. But the speed of walking like this is limited.
So the next phase is to take one step while setting up the next, gradually picking up speed.
Since the steps can also be used during normal walking, the exercises can be done anywhere.
With practice, I have been able to use two feet while running flat out.
I also learned how to quickly change direction in an emergency, setting the steps up and down.
Right now, I'm practicing Catman's fastest form - running at full speed on all fours using steps.
Once I mastered running at full speed on both feet, I was guaranteed to escape even if I encountered a goblin.
After all, if I could use my steps to jump to a height of about ten meters above the ground, the goblins wouldn't be able to reach me.
The response to running at full strength on four legs is training for future encounters with more powerful monsters.
Once I master this, unless they are flying monsters, they will not be able to catch me.
However, despite its strong escape ability, increasing its attack power is still an open question.
