Bab 17: The Buried Dead
On a hill far away from town. There was a public cemetery for poor and homeless people. The dead are buried in this world. A hole would be dug and they would be covered with earth.
Our quest this time was defeating the undead monsters that were emerging from the cemetery. It was almost evening. We set up a tent near the cemetery and wait for night to fall.
"Slow down Kanike, I saw that meat first Here, the vegetable on this side is done, so eat this instead!"
"After the cabbage hunt, I don't like eating vegetables anymore. I am afraid of the vegetable flying off somewhere if I grill it."
We set up a hot plate some distance away from the cemetery, barbecuing as we wait for dusk. We spent the time leisurely even though it was a hunting quest because the target was a small fry known as a zombie maker.
That was an evil spirit that controls zombies, possessing high quality corpse while manipulating several zombies as minions. This monster could be defeated by a novice party, so we took on this quest. So even though Lighttress did not have her armor, it wasn't too dangerous for her.
After finishing their meal, I poured coffee powder into a mug, adding water with my 'Create Water', and use 'Tinder' spell to heat the mug. These were basic magic thought to me by a wizard I met during the cabbage hunt.
As its name suggest, 'Tinder' is a spell to light a fire and posed no offensive threat. But it was an important spell that could replace a lighter to me. Meguma looked at me with a complicated expression and held out her cup.
"… Excuse me, please give me some water. I feel that Kanike is more proficient than me in using magic. Basically no one uses basic spells, but you make it looked convenient."
I cast 'Create Water' into Meguma's cup.
"Is that so, isn't this the way to use basic spells? Oh right, 'Create Earth'! … Hey, what is this spell used for?"
I showed Meguma the dusty earth on my palm. There are all sorts of elemental basic spells, but I wasn't sure how to utilize this earth elemental magic.
"Well… The crops grown from magically created earth are high in quality… That's it."
After listening to Meguma's explanation, Terly besides me burst into laughter.
"What, Kanike wants to plow the lands? Are you changing jobs to farmer? You could use 'Create Water' for the plants too! This job is a great fit for you,puhehe!"
I faced Terly with my right palm and raised my left hand.
"Wind Breath!"
"Pu he ahh! Ah–! My eyes!"
A gust of wind blew the dust onto Terly's face, the goddess rolled on the ground after the sand got into her eyes.
"… I got it, so that's how you use this spell."
"Wrong! Normal people won't use it that way! And why are you using basic spells better than a wizard!"
