My House Is a Magic Power Spot ~Just by Living There I Become the Strongest in the World~ Chapter 246: Steady Growth

Chapter 246: Steady Growth

The day after I crafted my reserve pestle…

「Haa…..haa….s-somehow I….defeated it ssu….」

Nagini had finally managed to beat one of my golems.

Well more accurately, she had finally gotten a draw where both of them were knocked down.

The golem quickly got up and took on a fighting pose as if appealing that the knockdown didn’t count but…

「For now…you managed to beat it I suppose.」

The rule for this training was to use magic well enough that you could take down one of my golems and in keeping with those rules…

「Un. With this, I think we can say, she cleared, it? The most important part, was learning to activate her magic, power fast enough to, beat the golem, in close quarters. It looks like, she can activate, her power, fast enough to achieve a tie, when fighting.」

「Indeed it seems so. Compared to when you first started, your magic use has become much better Nagini-chan.」

Hesty and Sakura discussed her results and decided that she had cleared this training program.

「Even I feel…like I’ve become tougher to some degree ssu….no really it’s just to some degree ssu.」

Nagini said with tiredness tinging her voice as she stood up.

It looks like her stamina had improved since the first time she came here. She had been fighting the golem since the morning and she was only out of breath.

「It looks like, after seeing Daichi’s crafting, your magic usage improved. Your instant, defense and counter, skills have gotten, much better.」

「Huh, so she says Nagini.」

「Uu, it’s really thanks to all of you ssu. Also thank you golem-san for training with me ssu….」

Nagini said and the golem responded by raising its fist.

‘Let’s fight again sometime’ was the pose it took. It’s nice that they got along.

「Un. Then for now I take it that the training is over?」

「Yes. Nagini, you can feel, that you’ve gotten stronger, right?」

Hesty asked and Nagini looked at her hands before clenching them.

「Yes ssu. Like this….I think I can overcome the trial ssu! I’m truly grateful for all of you looking after me like thi……s….?」

She raised her voice vigorously and tried to move but she lost her strength and swayed unsteadily.

「Oioi, don’t push yourself.」

I supported her because she seemed about to fall over and her face blushed a bit with embarrassment.

「Auu….I’m sorry ssu Master. I thought I was fine already…..」

「Though it was just training you went through quite a few fights. After training you need to properly rest your body to get the full benefits.」

「Un, I recommend that as well. It’s already, starting to get dark, so wait for tomorrow morning.」

「That should be good. If she’s here then Nagini-chan should recover more quickly. Just a night of sleep should restore her energy.」

At our words Nagini looked at each of us in turn with moist eyes.

「T-thank you ssu. T-then I won’t hold back and I’ll rest up ssu…..」

「That’s fine. Tiredness breeds mistakes. Take a proper rest.」

Then as we were speaking with Nagini…

「Daichi-dono~」

I heard Dianeia’s voice from behind me.

I looked back and saw her carrying a large bag with magic and approaching.

「I brought some of the crops and marine goods from the harvest festival the other day but…is now not a good time?」

「No there’s no problem….in fact this might be perfect Dianeia. We can just have supper now. Could you take care of it Sakura?」

「Of course! Leave it to me!」

I’m sure after so much exercise she must be starving.

More than anything, since Nagini would go on to take this trial she would need to eat properly to demonstrate her full abilities. Those were my thoughts as we proceeded to prepare dinner.
