CHAPTER 24- Kei's grandmother.
How does the magic power system work in this world? It's simple. At birth, people inherit magic from their mothers or grandmothers. And magic is enhanced by the points you get from defeating more powerful monsters and enemies.
Nobles have the best magical affinity. They can get more points and improve faster compared to commoners. Commoners must strive twice or three times to improve.
In this world, beauty and power are very important, that is why nobles strive to be powerful warriors ... Well, only noble women. Noblemen are in charge of managing businesses and lands.
In this world, commonly, people can only use one or two magic attributes, but there are few people capable of using more than 3 magic attributes.
Reima Molfer, Sei Molfer's mother, was famous for her perfect control of magic. She could use all magic attributes. Sei Molfer can only use 7 magic attributes.
That is why the Molfer family is famous.

"I see... The weak point is his shoulders. Drin, use water and darkness magic!"
Drin was using a magic bow to shoot magic arrows that she created herself.
"Of course, darling!"
She readied her bow and a magic arrow appeared.
The tip of the arrow was surrounded by a black liquid. Water magic combined with darkness magic.
As she prepared, Kei was fighting the Orc king.
He was very exhausted and the Orc was practically unharmed.
Kei protects his body with magic, so he was hardly hurt. Why doesn't he wear armor? His magic protects him much better.
"You are not the final boss! I will not lose with you!"
Kei jumped up and the Orc king tried to hit him out of the air.
Kei used his wind magic to propel himself again and jump. It's like using the double jump in a video game.
Thanks to that double jump, Kei dodged the Orc king's attack.
"NOW!!"
An arrow pierced the Orc king's left shoulder and he began to scream in pain.
"Final attack! Dragon Attack!"
Kei used all his magic power to enhance his sword attack.
Using all his magic power and strength, Kei pierced the Orc king's chest with his sword, destroying his heart.
"Did I make it?!"
Kei couldn't believe his plan worked ... Although the Orc king was not giving up yet.
The Orc king struck kei hard with his fist and smashed him to the ground.
Before dying, the Orc king kept hitting Kei hard with his fists.
"Darling!"
Drin rushed in and tried to rescue Kei.
The Orc king had no strength or energy left. He stopped hitting Kei and fell to the ground dead.
Of course, since Kei no longer had magic power, he was unable to protect his body.
His bones were broken, his lungs were punctured by his bones, he couldn't breathe, he was losing too much blood, and his vision was blurry. A normal human was already dead, but Kei had a strong body and was capable of withstanding powerful attacks.
"17 hit points? Wow, wow... T-that was close."- Kei said. His voice could barely be heard.
If he could cry or scream in pain, he would. He is suffering too much.
"Healing magic!"
A red glow surrounded Kei and his injuries are fading fast.
The glow faded and Drin clenched her fists. She is frustrated. She no longer has magical power.
"Don't ... worry, Drin."
Kei slowly raised his right hand and 10 magic potions appeared in front of him. Potions are flasks of red liquids. They are very expensive, but effective.
"I-I must take them quickly ..."
Drin took one of the potions and opened it.
"I'm sorry, I've run out of magic power."
She helped Kei drink the potions.
Kei drank all 10 potions and got up off the ground.
"I'm feeling ever so much better! I must buy more healing potions. I told you, Drin. Although we have healing magic, we must have emergency magic potions."
"You are very smart, darling! I will never doubt you again!"
"Well, having magic potions is very common though."- Kei thought.
"But potions are very expensive ... And we will receive very little money."
"Don't worry, Drin. The potions are worth 1,000 gold coins each, and we will earn only 20 gold coins for doing this mission. But remember, Drin, we don't do this for the money, we do it for the fame. Besides, my family is one of the richest in the country. And my two fiancees belong to wealthier families than mine. If we run out of money, I can simply borrow from them."
"It's true."
"I think my power as a protagonist is to have good luck. I only had 17 hit points left. I'm really very lucky ... Although I would rather be more powerful."
"By the way, adventurers are coming."
"Thanks. I'm going to put the sword away and change."
By the way, the potions Kei took are very expensive, but they are of high quality, that is, they are very effective.

The adventurers stared in surprise at the corpses of the Orc kings.
"Did they really beat them ?!"
"They are very powerful!"
"I wanted to see them fight! We're late!"
"Nia, Crisfa, they are amazing!"
Kei, in his adventurer form, approached them along with Drin.
"I defeated the Orc queen, and Nia defeated the Orc king. Well, I'll save the corpses. Let's go."

"A-amazing ..."
Mirkia was looking at the corpses of the Orcs and Orc kings.
Kei and the adventurers met her at the back of the guild, where the corpses of monsters are kept.
The meat of some monsters is edible, so the guild keeps the corpses in this place to later sell their meat.
"From now on, all of you will be D-class adventurers!"
The adventurers celebrated their achievement and Kei simply yawned.
"Nia, let's go. Girls, collect the reward, tomorrow give me my share. I need to sleep!"
"Wait! We want to celebrate with you."- Kiana said.
"Thanks to you, we are class D adventurers." - Nerfa said.
"I'm sorry, but I need to rest ... Have another party tomorrow. I really need to rest."
Drin watched them with an intimidating look.
"He almost died. He needs rest."
They all started shaking and Kei patted Drin's head.
"Don't get angry. Let's go."
"Yes!"
Mirkia was watching Kei too much.
"According to the report, Kei defeated the Orc queen ... He really is Sei Molfer's son."- She thought smiling.

Kei, in his normal form, entered his house. Drin, in her cat form, is in his head.
"Good evening."
A woman similar to Sei Molfer, but older, approached Kei.
She looks like a 50-year-old woman.
"Welcome, Kei."- Said the woman, smiling devilishly.
Hearing her voice, Kei began to tremble in fear.
"W-why is she here? I must escape!"
Kei was about to run away, but she caught him and hugged him tightly.
"I missed you, Kei."
"She's an enemy?! An evil relative ?!"- Drin thought.
The woman began to give Kei kisses on the cheek.
"You're still just as cute, Kei!"
Her personality changed. She looked like a wicked and scary woman, now she looks like a good and kind woman.
"H-hi, Grandma."
"She's Kei's grandmother?! The Legendary Reima Molfer ?!"- Drin thought surprised.
