Chapter 7: Uru's Sense of Urgency!
Two days later.
When Id opened his eyes, he saw Uru sleeping soundly with his legs spread apart, oblivious to the world around him. He sighed softly, gently placed the soundly sleeping Uru back on the bed, and then opened the system panel.
Current total mana: 88
Yes, for the past two days, Ide has been practicing intensive time management, maintaining a schedule of twelve hours of deep meditation, eight hours of sleep, one and a half hours to prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner for Uru, plus half an hour for washing up, and refusing any ineffective time.
Therefore, Id can gain 34 magic points per day.
Two days is 68 points, plus his previous 20 points, that makes 88 points now.
"We're still 12 o'clock away from breaking 100."
"After preparing breakfast for Uru, we'll make a final push."
After glancing at his attribute panel, Id quickly rushed up the mountain.
Aside from wasting a lot of time on her first trip up the mountain due to unfamiliarity with the snow-covered terrain, Ido, now with all three types of Haki activated, can complete hunting and cooking within half an hour.
And Id would prepare the ingredients for lunch and dinner in the morning.
"Waaah."
After Uru woke up, Id had indeed prepared food and was already outside cultivating.
"Thanks, Id."
After thanking Id, Uru sat down inside the house and began to eat breakfast.
"It's so delicious!"
"It tastes much better than what I make."
"I have a feeling that if things continue like this, I'll be ruined by Id."
While eating her meal in small bites, Uru glanced at Ide, who was diligently cultivating outside the window. After thinking for a while, she said seriously, "Let's go to town today! First, sell the monster hides that Ide hunted, and then buy some daily necessities and food! I also need to do what I can; I can't let Ide spoil himself."
"Id, I'm going out."
With that thought in mind, Uru quickly finished her breakfast, put the pots and pans in the sink, picked up the monster hide that Id had processed, and ran towards the town, saying as she ran, "Id, I'll bring you something delicious today."
"..."
Id, who was already focused on the situation, did not respond to Uru's words.
However, Uru was used to Id's meditative posture at any time and place, so she didn't say anything more.
In the town.
"Tsk~"
"Such good monster hide, and you only gave me eight thousand gold? Uncle Jack is a complete and utter swindler."
"If this were sent to a larger town, it could probably sell for more than ten times the price."
As Uru emerged from the leather shop in town, she counted the eight thousand J in her hand, her expression somewhat grim.
"never mind."
"It's better than nothing."
"I need to buy bread, butter, chocolate, vegetables, and fruit."
With a staggering 8,000 J in his pocket, Uru pondered what he should buy.
Although the town has low income, the prices are relatively low.
"Uru, where have you been these past two days?"
"Why haven't you come to chat with me?"
Just as Uru passed by the fruit shop where Susan worked, the sharp-eyed Susan immediately noticed the radiant Uru. She smiled and greeted him.
"Is that Susan?"
"I was just about to ask you to buy some fruit."
"Remember to give me a discount."
Uru looked at Susan in the fruit shop and smiled.
"Hey, Uru."
"You've changed since you got a man, haven't you?"
"With that rosy complexion, you can tell she's been taking a lot of tonics these past few days."
Susan glanced at Uru and immediately teased him.
"ha?"
"What did you say?"
"I didn't do anything!"
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll smash up your shop."
Uru's cheeks flushed red again. She glared at Susan and 'threatened' her.
"puff."
"Just kidding."
"But seriously, Uru, you should start thinking about finding a partner. I think Id is a good fit."
Susan teased Uru.
Yes, teasing "Little Chu Girl" is quite interesting.
"really."
To Susan's surprise, Uru did not refute anything, but nodded repeatedly.
"Huh?"
"No way?"
"It really worked?"
Susan looked at the stunned Uru, and seemed to understand something, saying incredulously.
"What? It's really done?"
Uru then looked up at Susan and asked.
"It's nothing."
Susan shook her head, trying to bluff her way out of it.
However, Susan thought about it again and realized that there didn't seem to be anything wrong with it.
It would be even more strange if Id and Uru, two handsome young men and beautiful women, were alone in a room and nothing happened between them, right?
"Give me some oranges, apples, and strawberries."
Fortunately, Uru didn't mind; she was soon drawn to the fresh fruit in Susan's shop.
the other side.
In front of the wooden house in Uru.
"call!"
"It's done!"
After six hours of hard training, Id finally accumulated one hundred magic points.
"My current strength is entirely due to my own hard work."
"System, give me some points!"
After Id gathered enough magic points, he didn't hesitate to add all one hundred points to the Ice Shape spell.
"boom!"
With the help of Id, he immediately felt a chill burst forth from his body, and an ice-shaped magic circle bloomed in front of him like a flower.
Meanwhile, the Id system panel has been updated as follows.
Magic Source:
First source of magic:
In a deep meditation state, you gain one mana point every ten minutes.
While in hibernation, you gain one mana point every twenty minutes.
Current total mana: 0
magic:
Ice-Making Magic: LV2 (+)
"marvelous!"
"Ice-Shaping Magic: Continuous Spear!"
After Id broke through, he immediately assumed the posture of an ice-shaped magic spell and released four or five ice spears, piercing through the trunks of the nearby trees.
"Thump."
It was just as Ide was testing the extent of his strength improvement after his breakthrough that Uru, who had just returned from buying food, witnessed this scene. An incredulous look crossed her face as she let the fruit in her arms fall onto the snow, and she murmured, "Ide broke through again? How long has it been?"
Even disregarding 'Haki' and swordsmanship, Ido's current magical abilities are sufficient to join a mage guild.
In other words, it took Ido less than three days to go from a complete novice with no knowledge of magic to a formal mage.
This made Uru feel a sense of urgency deep down.
"Given Id's current cultivation speed, surpassing me is only a matter of time. Once he surpasses me, what reason will I have to keep him in the town?!"
Uru couldn't help but think this in his heart.
"Looks like I need to hurry up and start training harder!"
"I absolutely cannot let Id catch up with me so easily."
Uru picked up the fruit from the ground, her eyes reflecting seriousness and determination.
