The Reincarnated Boy’s Growth Log ~The Harder I Work The Stronger I Can Become!?~

And The Result Is

I can hear the crackling sounds of lightning in the vicinity.
……what happened again? I check the vicinity while bearing with the pain that courses throughout my body.

If I’m not wrong, Levine-san’s attack and my attack clashed and exploded.
And then, the vicinity was blown away by that explosion, and I was dragged in and blown away by the blastwave as well.

A dust cloud enshrouds the surroundings because of the blastwave, and the surroundings aren’t visible.
I can’t grasp anything even when I use Magic Power Detection because an enormous amount of Magic Power is whirling at the location of the explosion.
It’s to the extent that I can barely tell that Levine-san is around with Presence Sense.

“Guu! ……it sure hurts.
Maybe because of the lightning, it’s numb and hard to move”

I look at my right side.
I somehow defended against Levine-san’s bellow, but it looks like I didn’t manage to defend against it entirely.
I’ve been burned by the heatwave throughout my body, but my right arm is especially bad.
Maybe because the attack grazed it, it has been charred black.
It won’t move at all, and only pain courses through it.

Well, I suppose it wouldn’t end with just being charred black if it had hit directly.
I guess I ought to consider that it’s good enough that I even have my arm……no, I ought to consider the fact that I didn’t manage to defend against it entirely.
The right side of my face stings as well, and I can’t open my eye either.

I support my body with my left hand and lifts my body somehow.
My right leg is unharmed, but it’s burned.
Furthermore, it’s numb and hard to move because of the lightning.
I somehow plant my legs in the ground and stand up, but I’m mildly numb throughout my body.

When I stand and survey the vicinity, I can tell that I’ve been blown quite far away from the place where I had cast my Magic.
I was blown about 300 meters away, maybe?

And the forest I was in had been obliterated.
It’s hard to tell with the smoke, but that I can tell.
And then as I’m looking at the smoke, Levine-san leaps at me from within the smoke.

Looking at how he’s soaked in blood here and there, I suppose my attacks got through as well.
I have it worse in terms of the severity of the injuries though.

“”Gururu.
Ain’t too shabby huh.
To think that you broke through that and wounded me””

Levine-san praises me for a change.
However, when I see that the killing intent that Levine-san gives out hasn’t wither

“”But, I can’t acknowledge you yet.
Dragon Ruler’s Bellow is a technique every Attribute Ruler can use.
It’s going to be tough if you don’t defend against it entirely, you know?””

I’m experiencing it firsthand.
However, I can tell that Levine-san is exhausted as well.
It’s that amount of Magic Power.
Even just firing one blast of that probably requires quite a bit of stamina.

Levine-san once again materialises lightning spheres in the vicinity and releases them at me.
I also materialise about ten spheres in the vicinity through the Composite Magic Celestial Lightning Heavenly Outfit.
And then

“Shield!”

As I stick my left arm forward, the spheres floating in my vicinity move to the front, and I change their shapes as I see fit.
They change into disk-shaped shields, and defends against Levine-san’s approaching attack,

A dazzling light emits before my eyes, but the lightning doesn’t get past the shield.
This technique is a technique that integrates offence and defence.
Because of that, it can use the automatic defence from the Lightning Heavenly Garment’s Magic Power Detection as well.

Its defence is high to begin with, but because I’m pouring in quite a bit of Magic Power through Composite Magic, its defence is higher than before……it should.
It’s just that I can’t win by just being on the receiving end like this.

I’m rotating about ten spheres into shields, and activate about ten more and rotate them onto the attack.
I change each of their shapes from spheres into sharp spears.
And then

“Lance!”

I aim and release them at Levine-san.
It’s not as powerful as Grom Ray, but I suppose not even Levine-san can get off unscathed.
Lance rains down on Levine-san while leaving bluish-white trails.
Levine-san too releases sharp claw blades and clashes them.
Alright, a single Lance obliterated a single claw blade.

It turned into an exchange of blows from there.
I defend against the lightning spheres Levine-san releases at me with the shields, and Levine-san also releases his claw blades and neutralises the spears that I release.

However, the one who’ll be overwhelmed at this rate is naturally going to be me.
The numbness is clearing bit by bit, but my right arm won’t move at all.
My right eye also only opens a tiny bit……or rather, it’s pretty much roasted, and I can’t see out of it.

Besides, Levine-san is probably above me when it comes to Magic Power capacity.
It’s bad if it carries on like this.
I have to come up with some plan to break out of this deadlock.
The moment I thought that, this battle suddenly came to an end.
That is

“”You guys blowing things up is so noisy! Can’t you be a bit quieter!””

a furious voice that goes as such, along with a lump of wind falls from the sky.
The lump of wind falls in between Levine-san and me and explodes.
It changed its figure into a gigantic tornado.
A, amazin’.

“”Why did Granny Anima come””

Levine-san, who looks up into the sky while saying.
A Dragon with light green scales then descends from the sky.
Unlike Levine-san’s rugged feel, it has a slender feel like Hilde-san and Eclat.
I suppose it’s a female since Levine-san was saying ‘Granny’.
Dragons differ depending on male or female as well huh.

“”It’s because you guys are rampaging here, isn’t it! There are my dependents on this island as well.
Those children came crying to me.
I came to have a look, wondering what’s going, and you’re having an all-out duel! Are you trying to obliterate the island!?””

Her size is slightly smaller than Levine-san, but she’s more dignified than Levine-san.
It looks like Levine-san can’t raise his head either.

As I’m watching Levine-san being scolded by this Dragon, she glared at me as well.
The lecture towards me started as well from there.

◇◇◇

“Maximum Healing……I guess it’s finally more or less to the extent of first aid with this.
My right eye pretty much can’t see after all.
Well, I guess it can’t be helped.
I shall leave the rest for when my Magic Power return”

Levine-san and I currently came to a different uninhabited island that’s a slight flight away from the island we were rampaging on.
A slight flight is in terms of Dragon’s speed.
It’s a distance that’ll take humans a month on land.

We were led into a cabin that stands silently at that uninhabited island.
By the owner of this cabin, the Wind Dragon Ruler, Anima-san.
I thought Anima-san might be a Granny when she turned humanoid, but she became roughly the age of Mei-chan and the others.
I don’t know how many times I rubbed my eyes.

Anima-san has long light green hair and wears something kimono-like that’s similarly green.
I suppose it’s probably the knowledge that the Heroes brought in.

Her appearance is that of a child, but my heart ends up throbbing at the behaviour of a bewitching woman I’m occasionally shown.
However, because her appearance is that of a child, a slight guiltiness ends up sprouting afterwards.
Over there

“Don’t be deceived just because her appearance is a child.
This granny has lived twice as long as me”

“Twi!?”

I was about to shout ‘twice!?’ from being overly surprised, but Anima-san glares at me with a horrible expression, so I immediately block my mouth with my hand.
Looks like talking about age is taboo in front of this person.

“Well, don’t just stand there, take a seat”

Levine-san and I were urged by Anima-san and sat down.
This cabin, it’s different from other houses variously.
First, we remove our shoes at the entranceway, the living room is laid with tatami, and there are zabutons and a chabudai placed over there.
It’s as though I came to a Japanese house.
There isn’t the custom of removing shoes in this world after all.

“So, what’s the reason you guys were battling and blowing things up on that island?”

Anima-san asked the reason Levine-san and I were fighting, so we talk about it.
It’s not something to hide after all.
When I talk about the circumstances, Anima-san frowns and glares at Levine-san.

“Levine, you could’ve just given it to him, even without doing such things”

“I said it, didn’t I, Granny.
It’s to confirm his capability”

Levine-san goes humph and turns away at Anima-san’s words.
He’s like a child who’s being reprimanded by his parent.
I’ll probably be punched if I said something like that, so I won’t say it though.

Anima-san then turns to me

“You, if I’m not wrong, you’re called Lei, is it.
Levine doesn’t look like he’ll give it to you, so I shall give you my fang”

and says to me.
I’m incredibly thankful for that, but as I thought, I want to use Levine-san’s, who trained me.
He’s the person who trained me after all is said and done.
The battle this time around is also for the sake of being acknowledged by this person after all.

Hence, as I was about to refuse Anima-san, Anima-san glances at Levine-san and smirks with an extremely mischievous look.
Wha, what? As I was thinking that

“Granny, don’t do things as you like.
I’m giving my fang to that fellow!”

Levine-san flared up.
Anima-san, who saw that, is holding her stomach and laughing in a way that it’s not visible to Levine-san.
……Levine-san, you’ve been played.

After that, it turned into a little skirmish because Anima-san, who dragonified, used the brute force method of punching the face of Levine-san, who dragonified to retrieve the fang, snapping his fang, and retrieving it, but I somehow managed to acquire Levine-san’s fang.

I was told by Levine-san that I barely passed at that time, but I was happy honestly that I was acknowledged.
And then as we were thinking of returning to Nanor since we also finished our objective

“In that case, I’ll go as well.
I want to meet Hilde and Sylphe after such a long time as well”

she says to us.
……sorry, King-sama.
Another Attribute Ruler is entering the Royal Capital.
