Succubus' Life in Another World

Chapter 46: Now, to the Sacred Mountain!

The six of us climb the mountain without any particular problem. The Mages like me and Audrey for sure, but even Grimhart and Lysha, who cant use Magecraft, doesnt seem to be affected by the mountains dense Mana.

Arisa dropping out was pretty surprising, but Grimhart, Lysha, are you two okay? Its just about guts if you ask me. Rather, Gray and Jarvis dont have enough guts if they were knocked out by just this much. Being able to somehow manage just by guts is weirder, you know? For me, the reason Im fine is pretty simple. Even though Im like this, I can use a bit of Life Magecraft. But I dont quite have enough, so its pretty difficult for me to attack with it, though.

It seems that Lysha can use Magecraft if its just the simpler spells. But since the amount of her MP is little, it seems that all she can do is either just make a cups worth of water or cause just enough of a breeze to dry her hair.

She probably has an affinity with Water and Wind Attribute, but unlike just causing a phenomenon, attacking with high killing power consumes quite the amount of MP.

Since just causing a slightly strong gust of wind in front of her had her running out of breath, its probably quite difficult for Lysha to cast attack Magecraft.

Lucky you. No matter how much I tried, I couldnt even use Life Magecraft. Really, Jessica? Yeah, I probably dont have any talent for this stuff. Well, these days I earn enough to eat with this guy so I dont really have any problems.

Saying so, Jessica smiles while tapping the shield she has on her right hand. It seems that the reason Jessica is fine even after climbing the sacred mountain is because in the past she wanted to be a Mage, so she trained in controlling her internal MP.

Her difference with Urania is probably that, at that time, she was able to sense the MP inside her and was able to control it. But unfortunately, just like Lysha, the amount of her MP itself is quite little and, ignoring that fact that she can control it in her body, she probably hasnt reached the point where she can release it outside the body to create a phenomenon.

In exchange, it seems that Jessica was able to use Physical Reinforcement, the use of internal MP to strengthen a part of the body when needed.

This Physical Reinforcement uses MP, but strictly speaking, its actually not a kind of Magecraft. Magecraft is the act of using the MP inside the body as a trigger in which Magic Circles or Magical Mediums are used as catalysts to manifest specific phenomena.

Other things that utilize MP are mostly referred to as Skills. My Lewd Dream and the beast-kins Beast Transformation probably fit here. By the way, Dream Fabrication is also a skill, but its a bit different. While its true that Lewd Dream uses up MP, it seems that Dream Fabrication doesnt use MP at all.

For that reason, although Jessica cant use Magecraft itself, since she can use Physical Reinforcement that uses up MP, she has no problems with controlling her internal MP and as a result, is able to move in the Mana-dense mountain without any problem.

Still, explaining everything with guts is out of the question, dont you think? Yup, no way~ Absolutely no. Yeah, thats nonsense. Please dont talk Gray down because of some vague thing. W-why

Only Grimharts guts theory is an absolute no. Including me, there are five women here right now. In the first place, since the request this time is done by two groups completely composed of only women, Fyne and us Little, the gender ratio is leaning more on the womens side.

Furthermore, two of our three precious men ended up being knocked out, so the only guy here right now is Grimhart.

Normally, this makes it look like a harem, but in reality Jessica is actually married and even has a child. Lysha is in a relationship with Gray, and I have Urania. Audrey and Bia arent married but I hear that they have a partner, so Grimhart doesnt have a chance with anyone here.

Still, guts? Absolutely no. Even considering individual differences, people who never had any training in MP control should show some signs of influence. Saying you can solve that with just guts or something, Grimhart may be more of a musclehead than I thought.

So, weve climbed up this far, but how is it? Well~ For now Ive found a place thats unnaturally thin in Mana~ Thin? Yup~ In any other place, this would be normal, but~ we are at the sacred mountain, right~? I see.

Having an area thin in Mana on this sacred mountain thats naturally dense in Mana should be impossible, more so at this altitude. Its pretty obvious to see that the Mana at that place was converged into a Magic core and gave birth to a monster.

The monster may no longer be in the area, but its highly possible for it to leave some traces behind. If we follow that, it might not be too hard to track the monster down.

Now that its settled, why dont we check it out? Agreed ~

Following Audreys lead, the six of us head for the place. There were a lot of monsters at the foot of the mountain, but the moment we climbed up, I havent seen that much anymore. There have been a few here and there, but all of them were stiff, like theyre afraid of something so they werent really much of a threat to us.

For that reason, without any hindering obstacles, we were able to reach our destination, the place thats thin in Mana. And what awaited us there, were two eggs and four sets of footprints leaving the area.
