I’m not Goblin Slayer Chapter 091

The sunlight streamed into the room through the window, making the room quiet and peaceful.

Gauss opened his eyes as if he had a very long dream.

He raised his hand to block the light from his eyes.

Perhaps he had just woken up, but he felt the sunlight was a bit dazzling.

What am I doing?

He sat up on the bed and was stunned for a long while before recalling the memories before falling asleep.

That’s right.

I was in “seclusion” in the Mutual Aid Association’s cultivation chamber.

First, I ate and drank like crazy, and then sleepiness came over me.

So, have I successfully advanced?

Gauss, finally coming to his senses, excitedly looked down at his body.

After his brain slowly recovered from its dormant state, he felt many different things.

This change was indescribable. If every previous attribute increase made him feel refreshed, what he was experiencing now was a superimposed feeling of complete vitality.

All the cells in his body were emitting comfortable moans after he woke up, as if telling him that his body had entered a completely different and new realm.

In his line of sight, light entered the secret room. The rough red brick walls, the stone table not far away emitted a cold, hard luster, and there were still some food scraps left over from his previous meal. Every detail and color was perfectly clear.

Every dust particle in the air was also clearly visible.

They floated in the air, drifting and rising like little elves.

Transparent!

Gauss could only use this word to describe the world he was experiencing now.

And there was so much magic in his body.

He felt it slightly, at least many times more than before he fell asleep, and the feeling it gave him was completely different.

If the previous magic was without texture, like a thin flow of water, now the magic had become extraordinarily viscous. In the same quantity, the texture it conveyed was several times heavier.

Too, too much.

The changes in his body after waking up made Gauss feel a bit overwhelmed.

He immersed himself in the feeling for a while, then opened his adventurer’s handbook.

A moment later, a large amount of accumulated information poured out all at once.

“Successfully Transferred!”

“Profession Level increased to: 1”

“Current Profession: Spellcaster”

“Gained Profession Talent: Spell Mastery”

“【Spell Mastery】: Enhances the spellcaster’s control over the source of magic, improves the efficiency of learning various spells, optimizes magic consumption, and enhances spell effectiveness.”

“Spellcaster, a master of spell application, a born spellcaster.”

The first thing that appeared before Gauss was his profession transfer information.

Spellcaster?

Gauss blinked.

It looked no different from a Mage; both were some kind of magic-user profession.

In fact, he had already anticipated that when he entered the professional stage, his transferred profession might not be an ordinary Mage.

After all, others, well, mainly Anderni, had mentioned the uniqueness of his magic several times, and his abilities and talents were indeed more diverse. It wasn’t hard to predict that he would transfer to some special spellcaster-related profession.

Feeling the surging magic in his body, he had no dissatisfaction with the profession he had transferred to.

Moreover, the profession talent brought by this profession also made him very satisfied.

【Spell Mastery】, one talent, several effects.

Whether it was strengthening control over the source of magic, improving the efficiency of learning magic, reducing magic consumption, or enhancing spell effectiveness, he was satisfied with every single one.

Especially after he inquired about some common professional talents of Mages, he was even more satisfied after comparing them.

For many Mages, they might awaken a 【Mastery】 to gain a bonus to spell hit rate.

It could also be 【Penetration】, 【Alertness】, 【Silent Casting】…

Normally, these were relatively singular skill effects.

But his was very powerful.

Gauss tried to control the magic in his body to circulate, and immediately felt the effect brought by Spell Mastery: a smooth feeling as if commanding an arm.

The magic became exceptionally obedient and.

And…

Gauss found that his core skill, 【Mage Armor】, had also undergone a change.

It seemed that he could use it with just a thought, without the intense concentration required to circulate magic and release it before.

As soon as he thought of it, he immediately tried.

The moment the thought of using 【Mage Armor】 was given, a thick armor force field burst forth from his body!

“Boom!”

This time, the Mage Armor was very different from before.

Firstly, in Gauss’s perception, it became more “heavy.” Of course, this didn’t mean cumbersome; essentially, it wouldn’t add any weight to him, so it wouldn’t affect his movement flexibility. The “heavy” here referred to the “shield value.”

After advancing to a Spellcaster, the Mage Armor became several times more robust and had a special force field.

He looked down at his body and felt the air slightly distort under the influence of the Mage Armor.

It was as if the Mage Armor had separated an inner and outer world.

Moreover, it was so fast to cast.

It was almost instantaneous. Was this the effect of a core skill?

Gauss knew that after other apprentices advanced to a profession, their corresponding core skill would also receive some enhancements, such as reduced consumption or faster casting speed. But could it be as fast as almost instantaneous? He wasn’t sure.

But in any case, this was a good thing.

Looking back at the adventurer’s handbook attribute panel, the information on it had undergone significant changes.

Name: Gauss

Strength: 6

Agility: 6→ 7

Constitution: 6→ 7

Intelligence: 7→ 8

Perception: 6→ 7

Charm: 6→ 7

Core Skill: 1st-level Spell Mage Armor lv 4 ( 0→ 23/100) (This skill has deviated from its original effect and can be renamed)

Other Skills:

0-level Cantrip Light lv 2 ( 7→ 19/20)

0-level Cantrip Mage Hand lv 3 ( 27→ 35/50)

1st-level Spell Magic Missile lv 3 ( 17→ 26/50)

Basic Swordsmanship lv 2 ( 12/20)

Enhanced Jump lv 1 ( 1/10)

Talents: Rapid Digestion, Magic Resistance, Spell Mastery

Except for Strength, all other attributes increased by + 1, totaling 5 points of improvement.

The biggest improvement among them should be Intelligence.

On the surface, they all increased by 1 point, seemingly no different.

But the change from 7 points to 8 points was completely incomparable to the change from 6 points to 7 points.

He even felt that his 8 points of Intelligence might be quite strong at this stage.

It sounded a bit strange, but since the attribute values displayed on the panel only showed as integers, even with the same points, there were actual specific deviations.

In Gauss’s guess, whether it was 8.1 or 8.9, the panel would display 8 points.

In terms of skill proficiency, except for Basic Swordsmanship and Enhanced Jump, which were non-spellcaster-related skills, the other four spells all had different degrees of improvement.

Light had 12 points, Mage Hand 8 points, Magic Missile 9 points, and Mage Armor, which had the highest proficiency, improved the most, by a full 23 points.

Adding them up, it was a total of 52 points.

“Do you want to rename the skill Mage Armor?”

Gauss hesitated for a moment, then chose to modify it. Essentially, this spell had transcended its original foundation.

“Omni Armor.”

“Changed to Omni Armor.”

The information on the panel also changed accordingly.

The reason it was named Omni Armor was not that it was already omnipotent, but merely a good wish.

As a core skill, it would continue to grow with him, and perhaps one day it would evolve into the perfect form Gauss envisioned.

Gauss’s attention left the adventurer’s handbook.

He returned his focus to himself.

He felt that he was very strong now.

After careful observation, he also discovered something that had been overlooked before.

That was, within his body, at the source of the magic entanglement, there seemed to be an illusory anomaly.

Upon careful perception, it was a small cup constantly surging with magic.

Gauss vaguely understood its existence.

It seemed to be the class, the source of power for a professional.

It wasn’t a physical entity but a conceptual existence.

However, it wasn’t an ethereal thing but the core formed by the condensation of magic within Gauss’s body.

The existence of the class allowed professionals to effectively command the power they possessed.

With its help, the previously scattered magic gained a backbone, and the “quality” of the magic greatly improved.

In his perception, when he used spells now, even if it wasn’t the core skill Magic Missile, its power was incomparable to that in the apprentice stage.
