Chapter 718: Daedalus Street
Rephia's new skill undoubtedly gave Reiger and Ais a big surprise.
Both of them are adventurers, with levels far above the average first-level adventurer, so they are well aware of how powerful Rephia's [Sword Spirit Chasing] is.
It's not simply about enhancing magic and turning it into a magic sword.
The truly valuable aspect of this skill is that it allows for multiple chanting.
Generally speaking, whether a magic swordsman or a magic guide, they can only activate one type of magic at a time.
They cannot prepare ice magic while chanting fire magic, and then release the two magics simultaneously.
Even if they have completed the chanting of a certain magic and put it on standby without releasing it, they still cannot continue chanting a second magic in that state.
If they attempt to do so, there are only two outcomes.
Either the subsequent chanting will replace the completed one, nullifying the magic already completed, wasting spiritual power gratuitously,
or different attributes of magic power will conflict and ultimately misfire, harming themselves instead of the enemy.
Therefore, no one in this world can activate two types of magic simultaneously, even Revilia is no exception, and so is Reiger.
Reiger can only use magic enhancement to make the magic he releases become dual or triple-layered, but cannot activate two types of magic at the same time; he can only use them one at a time.
Rephia's [Sword Spirit Chasing], however, makes this impossible task possible.
As long as she wishes, she can turn one type of magic into a crystalline small sword entering standby enhancement state, then turn another type into a silver small sword following her, immediately chanting a third type of magic, controlling three types of magic simultaneously, and using them at the same time.
Although it requires time to prepare, the chanting required for magic cannot be omitted by any means, compared to other magic guides, Rephia undoubtedly has more options and can perform more operations. Plus, she herself is an elf who theoretically can use thousands of magics. The tactics, operations, and possibilities during battle are indeed vast, and once she grows, Rephia will definitely surpass Revilia, becoming a stronger magic guide than Revilia.
Ais straightforwardly said one sentence.
"If Revilia finds out, she will definitely be very happy."
At the very least, Loki is certainly already delighted; otherwise, she wouldn't blurt out evaluations like "unheard-of, super rare skill," allowing people to vaguely imagine her jumping with excitement upon seeing this skill manifest.
Of course, Rephia felt a sense of awe at Ais's compliment.
"I, I'm still far behind! Compared to everyone...!"
The elven girl was still the same, lacking self-confidence.
Is it also a downside of always looking at the backs of Reiger and Ais?
No way, the performances of Reiger and Ais have been too good, appearing too strong in front of the elven girl, always giving her the illusion that if she's not careful, she'll be left behind, and compared to her two awe-inspiring idols, she feels still very weak, little did she know, she is now actually more threatening than many first-level adventurers.
At the very least, compared to the just-promoted Lv.5 Raul and Angel, Rephia's role in battle will only be greater, and might even surpass Bert, Theona, Theone, or even Ais.
If Rephia is now the same as Ais, both at Lv.6, the reputation she would enjoy in Orario would definitely be greater than Ais's.
"Alright, let's keep moving forward." Reiger said to his two teammates.
"I have a feeling we're getting closer to the destination."
Hearing this, the girls held their breath and nodded in succession.
They did not doubt Reiger's words.
Although they didn't know what basis Reiger had, since he said so, things must be as he stated.
Even if the direction might be different, Ais and Rephia undoubtedly have a great trust in Reiger.
Thus, under Reiger's lead, the three of them continued along the pathway beside the sewer, moving forward.
Along the way, the three of them no longer encountered monster ambushes, seemingly because that group of monsters just now was the last collective of all aquatic monsters in the sewer.
Reiger then led the two beautiful girls left and right, occasionally entering side paths, sometimes stepping up stairs, sometimes walking over arch bridges, sometimes opening grids, moving unknowingly underground in Orario.
In such circumstances, regardless of Rephia, Ais clearly felt she was entering a field where the air was growing increasingly unusual.
It's as if the wind blowing in the city encountered many obstacles, bumped into numerous buildings and side paths, frequently getting blocked, making the air flow very complex. Ais first tilted her head in confusion, then finally realized.
She knew exactly where she was now.
"Daedalus Road..."
Ais subconsciously said this name.
"What?"
Beside her, upon hearing Ais's murmur, Rephia stopped her steps, showing a stunned expression.
"Oh?" Reiger didn't turn around but smiled and said to Ais, "You know where this is, huh?"
"...Yeah." Ais nodded her head, and said, "This is beneath the labyrinth street."
Labyrinth street, Daedalus Road.
