Magic System in a Parallel World

115 Giants' Valley(2)

"Let me see your watch." Camille said to him after a moment of silence.

"Here you go." Leo showed off his watch to her with his chest puffed out and a prideful look on his face.

"T-Thirty five million points?! That's impossible! There's no way the two of you could've acquired this much points in such a short time! I really hope you didn't mess with the watch…" Camille was in disbelief after seeing their points.

"What? Why would we do something like that? Do you not trust me, Miss Camille? We earned these points fair and square!" Leo frowned.

"...Where did you guys train before coming here? And why would you come here when you could get more points over there? Nobody would leave such a good farming spot without being forced to."

"That's exactly why we had to find a new location, Miss Camille. Our old location collapsed on itself, so we cannot go there anymore." Leo sighed.

"Collapsed…? Don't tell me… You went inside a Labyrinth?" Camille narrowed her eyes at him.

"It's a long story. I will tell you all about it at the end of the training course. Anyways, what are you doing here, Miss Camille?" Leo asked her.

"You better tell me everything. And I am here to watch over a certain group of students."

"Huh? So you're being their guardian? Who are these lucky students?"

"I'm not really being their guardian. The closer I am to them the faster I can heal them if they encounter any accidents. This is the Headmistress' desire. As for the students… They're elite students— the best in our school. And with the tournament coming up, we cannot afford to lose any of these students."

"Elite students, huh. No wonder they're getting this special treatment. Anyways, I will see you later, Miss Camille. Our points have barely increased for the past few days. If we don't return to grinding soon, we'll lose our lead. Let's go, Nina." Leo said.

"..."

"Wait." Camille suddenly stopped him.

"Please don't stop us, Miss Camille. We'll be fine— really."

"Leo is right, Miss Camille. We can handle ourselves just fine."

Camille rubbed her eyes and sighed, "I'm not trying to stop you."

She proceeded to retrieve a red sword from her Spatial Ring before offering it to Leo.

"You're still using your training sword, right? This is a B-Grade artifact. It'll assist you in the Giant's Valley."

"Are you sure you can do this, Miss Camille? This feels a little cheaty." Leo swallowed nervously when he saw the beautiful sword with a red blade in her grasp.

"This wasn't my idea. The Headmistress was the one who told me to hand this to you if I see you."

"I see… If the Headmistress is behind this, I guess I can take it. Thank you, Miss Camille." Leo accepted the red sword.

"Then I will see you later." Leo waved at her as he entered the Giant's Valley with Nina.

'Just how much stronger has he gotten since the start of the training course? To think he's already fighting A-Rank monsters when he'd only recently become a C-Rank Adventurer…' Camille sighed inwardly.

After leaving Camille's side, Leo inspected the red sword in his grasp with Analyze.

[Blood Sword]

[Grade: B+]

[Description: Increases the power of your sword attacks by 150%. Restores energy by 10% of the damage you inflict with this weapon]

'Wow, this is a very good weapon! If I continue inflicting damage with this sword, I can theoretically have unlimited energy!'

"Leo, are you sure that we'll be fine? There are other students in this place, so it'll be risky for you to use magic. The only reason we defeated the Black Wyvern was due to your overpowered magic." Nina suddenly said to him.

"Yes, I'll be fine, especially now that I have this baby with me." Leo showed her the Blood Sword.

"Furthermore, we also have the Elder's Orb of Restraints. As long as we have that, all monsters will be rendered useless before us! The only downside is that it has a cooldown. After using it, we will have to wait for 10 whole minutes before we can use it again."

"If you say so." Nina nodded.

Sometime later, they encountered their first monster— the Mountain Cyclops.

The Mountain Cyclops was 30 meters tall, had arms that were thicker than an adult human body, and muscles that resembled mountains on its arms. The cyclops also had a grayish complexion and a pair of purple eyes.

All in all, the Mountain Cyclops was a frightening entity with a terrorizing aura.

"I'll distract it with my servants!" Nina said as she summoned about 50 skeleton warriors and 10 skeleton mages.

Once the Mountain Cyclops was fully focused on the skeletons, Leo leaped at it from its blind spot and swung his sword directly at the monster's Achilles tendon, causing the monster to release a painful roar as it fell to its knees.

"Haaaa!"

Leo proceeded to unleash a flurry of sword attacks on the monster, quickly covering its body with sharp sword marks.

"That wasn't so bad. It's countless times easier than fighting the Exploding Corpses, that's for sure." Leo said afterward.

"..." Nina stared at him with a dazed look on her face.

'My skeleton warriors weren't able to put a scratch on the Mountain Cyclops skin, yet he… Is this the difference between using an ordinary sword and an artifact for him? If he had that sword back at the cave, he would've been able to defeat the Black Wyverns and those weird monsters without using magic.'

After harvesting the monster core, they continued going deeper into the Giant's Valley.

And for the next several days, they would kill dozens of A-Rank monsters, increasing their total points to slightly above 39 million.

Right as the Wilderness Training Course entered its third week, Leo and Nina crossed paths with a group of individuals in the Giant's Valley, all of them wearing the Four Witches Academy's uniform.

When these two groups saw each other, their eyes widened with surprise.

"Leo…" Valery mumbled in a dazed voice as she stared at his handsome face.

'Valery and John… So they're the elite students that Miss Camille had mentioned…' Leo thought to himself.
