You sneaked into my simulation world and started spamming the panel?

He closed his eyes again, placing his hand on the densely packed surgical incisions, but nothing happened.

"Mr. Lott, you don't know how to learn magic, do you?"

Chloris sat opposite Lotte, and as her posture changed, her white bear socks were revealed under her raised skirt. "She's a mage, yet she doesn't know how to learn magic."

Lott looked at her seriously: "Teacher Chloris, what should I do?"

The word "teacher" made Chloris a little embarrassed. She covered her face with her sleeve and said softly, "Learning requires meditation... I'm sorry for teasing you earlier..."

Baldr keenly sensed that something was amiss.

However, Lott's mind was entirely on magic. He looked at the magic incantation in front of him, took a deep breath, and entered a state of deep meditation.

Only in this state was Lotte's soul liberated.

Most of the world's magic scrolls were made by the primal elves. They used magic to inscribe complex spells on parchment.

The process of learning magic involves absorbing the magic power on the scroll through meditation, allowing this magic power to inscribe a complete magical formula on one's own soul.

This process is also known as "engraving".

All magic must be learned through meditation, making meditation an essential introductory spell for mages. The higher the meditation level, the faster the learning speed.

[Breathing Meditation] is a family secret technique held by Isolde, and its efficiency in learning magic far exceeds that of ordinary meditation.

Not to mention that Lotte has already diligently practiced [Breathing Meditation] to Lv.3.

Chloris glanced at the magic scroll and noticed that the magic on it was disappearing at a visible rate.

So fast!

Is Lott really a genius? At this rate, he could learn it in just 20 hours!

“Miss Chloris,” Lott asked with his eyes closed, “do you know what arcane magic represents?”

“Arcane?” Chloris thought for a moment. “It represents the ability to analyze magical formulas. The deeper the analysis of a magical formula, the greater the power of the released magic. It also affects the change of form and quantity of magic.”

Lott nodded without saying anything.

But just then, Chloris suddenly discovered that Lotte's learning speed of magic had increased several times over!

At the current speed of magic imprinting, Lotte will only need 5 hours to learn it! That's a full 4 times faster!

What exactly did he do? How did he speed up so much in an instant?

Chloris stared intently at Lott's face, trying to deduce something, and finally came to a conclusion:

He can grow rapidly in his studies and become stronger and stronger!

It turns out that Lott really is a magical genius!

But the truth was not as mysterious as Chloris thought.

Lotte simply opened the panel and added all 4 attribute points to the Arcane attribute; that's all!

Arcane magic can both increase power and accelerate the learning speed of magic, making it very suitable for Lotte at present.

One hour later.

Lotte opened her eyes, glanced at the magic scroll that had lost its luster, and opened the panel.

Name: Lott

Race: Human [Unlimited Adaptability]

Level: Lv.5

Occupation: [Mage]

Skills: [Oath Keeper Lv.1], [Breathing Meditation Lv.3], [Basic Fireball Lv.1]

Basic Fireball spell, learned!

"Bard, we can set off now!"

When Lotte and Bard stepped out of the gate of the Three Thousand Gold Coins, they found that the town was shrouded in fog.

The mist from the Maple Forest drifted into the town.

"What...what's going on?"

Chapter 15 Old Master Lotte!!

Dense fog is deadly for adventurers in the forest.

After the adventurers, including Sgor, disappeared in the forest, the Adventurers' Guild issued an emergency rescue order.

The lure of high salaries has drawn many adventurers and part-time adventurers into the forest in an attempt to find the whereabouts of Sgar and his companions.

But they all got lost in the forest. Some managed to escape and never dared to go back into the forest, while others remained forever in the Maple Forest.

"Shh!"

An arrow pierced the tree trunk with a muffled thud.

A vine emerged from behind the tree trunk and entangled the arrow. Sap gradually corroded the wooden arrow, turning it into a puddle of water.

"Swish!"

Two more arrows were shot at the vine, but the vine deftly deflected them all. The act of shooting arrows also angered the vine's owner, and a demon emerged from the mist.

【Vine Flower Demon】

Its body is wrapped in vines, giving it a tough defense while also allowing it to corrupt enemies with its slime.

Beneath the vines were a pair of small, dark green eyes and a red flower with sharp fangs.

Unfortunately, what appeared before them was not just one flower fairy, but a whole group.

The dense vines swayed incessantly in the air like snakes, sending chills down the spines of anyone who saw them.

The archer realized he was surrounded and turned to leave, but a vine slid quickly along the ground and wrapped around his ankle.

The man immediately dropped his bow and arrows, drew his dagger, and slashed fiercely at the vines coiled around his ankles. But the mere dagger was no match for the flower fairy's defenses; the vines quickly wove an impenetrable barrier above his head.

"what!"

The vines constricted every part of his body, and the dagger in his hand was knocked to the ground. He lost his last chance to resist.

The flower fairy eats very quickly; in just over ten minutes, he will be digested down to a clump of fur.

He struggled in the air, but to no avail.

Suddenly, a sound came from the ground.

"Bard, what's that? It feels like a ball, but it's huge!"

"Really, it must be that the flower fairy caught some kind of large monster? This is the first time I've ever seen such a round ball."

Lotte and Bald encountered this strange scene on their way to find Sgor and the others.

They both stopped to watch and admire the natural wonder.

Upon hearing Baldr's voice, the man's survival instinct spurred him to unleash his last ounce of strength. He desperately tore away the vines covering his mouth and shouted, "Not the ball! I'm Hagen! Help me!"

"It's broken! And it's a person!"

Bard put down his large backpack, raised his warhammer, and looked at Lotte beside him. "Hagen is the blacksmith in our town, and we get along quite well. Could you please provide support from behind?"

Bard didn't let Lotte go with him, since Lotte had no obligation to do so.

Lott put down his baggage, raised Sophie's staff, and aimed it at the ball in the air: "The vine fairies have high defense, we can't kill all of them, so let me use magic."

"Is this a good idea? I remember that casting spells is very taxing for mages, isn't it?"

"Compared to saving lives, this mental strain is nothing, right? By the way, what am I in your eyes, a cruel murderer?"

Bard nodded, then called out to Hagen, "Hagen, the mage is here to save you. He's going to cast a fireball on you, so be careful not to get burned."

Hagen didn't respond; he no longer had the strength to struggle.

Bard turned to Lotte and said, "Hagen agreed. He's quite fat, and roasting him will help him lose weight. You focus on casting the spell, and I'll protect you from here."

"it is good."

Lotte held his staff in both hands, aiming it at the large sphere in the air.

As Lotte chanted, the crystal ball above the staff filled with red magic. A faint red magic circle appeared in front of the staff, growing brighter with the infusion of magic.

Thanks to Hagen's plumpness, the flower fairies rushed to devour this delicious meal, neglecting Lotte in the process.

"Sizzle".

Scattered flames began to emerge from in front of the magic circle, and a beam of light that did not belong to the sun appeared in the forest.

Only then did the flower fairies realize something was wrong. Their vines immediately changed direction and lunged at Lotte!

Bard seized the opportunity and used his warhammer to forcefully block the attack of the vines. He staggered back several steps, barely managing to regain his balance.

The fireball spell gradually took shape, and more and more vines began to attack Loth. Bald fought hard to resist, even using his body to directly withstand the impact of the vines.

Several vines bound the injured Baldr, tossed him high into the air, then bypassed him and rushed straight towards Lot!

Just as they were about to touch Lotte, the magic circle in front of Lotte suddenly lit up with a dazzling light.

Along with the light, the intense heat of the flames scorched the approaching vines, drying them out almost instantly.

A standard fireball formed in front of the magic circle. It spun for two seconds, absorbed the last bit of magic, and then flew straight towards Hagen!

"Boom—!"

Even with a basic fireball spell, the aftershocks from the explosion still dispersed the thick fog within a radius of several meters.

The intense heat from the flames continued to scorch the vines. Unable to endure the pain, the flower fairies had no choice but to retract the vines and spit out Hagen.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Covered in slime, Hagen lay on the ground. He didn't dare to delay for a moment, took out the life potion and drank it.

Meanwhile, Bard took the opportunity to use the healing potion to treat his injuries.

"Hagen, are you alright?"

"It's alright, it's alright!" Hagen picked up the scattered weapons from the ground and gripped the bow again. "I almost got eaten, cough cough... Is this the mage sir?"

"He is Lott, and he was the one who cast the fireball just now."

“Thank you, I am Hagen the blacksmith. Please feel free to come to me if you need anything in the future.” Hagen wiped his face with his palm and looked at the flower fairies around him who still refused to back down. “But what should we do now? Master Lotte, can you still cast spells?”

“It is possible, but most of the flower fairies have already escaped.” Lott drew his sword from his waist. “They will attack me when I cast spells. If you try to cover me, you will be put on the defensive. Why don’t we kill them together?”

"Chop...chop to death?" Hagen looked at Lotte's expression to make sure he wasn't joking. "Aren't you a mage?"

"I'm just a monk who loves to exercise in my spare time."

As the group was talking, the flower fairy's vines rushed over.

They knew who posed the greatest threat to them, so all the vines rushed towards Lothar.

Hagen picked up the three scattered arrows from the ground, took a deep breath, and the bow in his hand emitted a faint purple light.

The three arrows were fired simultaneously, leaving a purple afterimage in the air.

With the help of the skill, the three arrows pierced through several vines, but it was still far from enough.

Hagen lunged toward Lotte, trying to use his body fat to block the monster's attack.

It's almost a consensus among adventurers that mages should be in the protection team; how could a mage be put at the forefront!

But Hagen then witnessed a shocking scene.

Lott dodged to the side with a swift movement, then raised his sword, which glowed white, high and slashed down at the vines!

Four or five vines were swiftly cut down; the flower fairy's excellent defense was utterly insignificant under Lotte's sword.

"No way?"

Is this a monk?

"Hagen, you stay behind and fire arrows. Lott and I will rush in and take them out quickly."

"Huh?" Hagen looked at the two people's backs, not quite sure what had happened.

The subsequent battles were much easier.

Most of the flower fairies were scared away by Lotte's fireball spell, leaving only a small number of flower fairies who had tasted human flavor still reluctant to part with Hagen.
