“Descent of the spirit Zeal, Devil Possession.”

“I like your quick decision.”

I did those two things before Carina came along. Darki liked that.

“Ha!”

Carina attacks me again, but this time I’m able to parry it. I tried to see if I could do a lightning spell and a spirit yug enchantment in the little space I had, but I couldn’t.

“Ice Burn!”

“Whoa!”

I took a few steps back and used ice magic. This magic freezes the ground. The sudden ice on the ground caused Carina to slip and almost fall. However, as expected of a beastman. She lost her position, but did not fall. But the gap was huge.

“Inferno.”

I unleashed fire magic with the intention of melting the ice below. If I got too close to Carina at this point, I would slip as well. I’ve adjusted the power of the magic, but I’m sure she’ll get lightly burned if she gets hit. As I was watching Carina with attention to how she would act, I saw the yellow blur disappear.

“Magic too…”

As soon as the blur disappeared, the ice below and the fire in front of me also disappeared. Apparently, magic can also be taken away. However, the spirit Zeal descent and devil possession were not taken away.

“Inferno!”

“Lightning Burst!”

Carina released the inferno that had just disappeared. I fired a Lightning Burst, calculated to be a little more powerful than the Inferno I had just fired.

“Nyah!”

Carina’s Inferno was defeated by my Lightning burst. Then Carina screamed like a cat and was hit by the attack. While Carina was paralyzed and unable to stand, I approached her with a lightning shrink and placed my sheathed sword against her neck.

“I give up.”

“Winner, Nii-sama!”

Thus ended the mock battle. I released the spirit Zeal descent and demon possession. Then I cast a recovery spell on Carina to heal the damage.

“Can you stand up?”

“Yes, I’m fine.”

I said that and reached out my hand to Carina who was sitting down. Then I pulled her up, holding her hand in mine.

“Can I ask you more about that eye?”

I had fought her directly, so I had a general idea of what she was capable of. But I don’t know all the details, so I want to ask.

“Yes. Ah, please wait a moment.”

Carina said and turned in the direction of no one.

“Ice burn!”

As Carina said that, the ground in front of her froze. The area of effect was exactly the same as the one I had just released.

“I’ve returned everything. Now I’ll tell you.”

I then asked Carina about the details of her left eye.

As I had expected, it had the ability to take what it sees. The only thing that was a little different from what I had expected was that it was more like borrowing something rather than taking it. Incidentally, the name of the skill is called “borrowing and robbing. Because of the name of the skill, I don’t know whether she’s borrowing or taking.

“I have rarely used this power until now. So there are still many things I don’t understand. I made some discoveries during the battle with Zeros-san.”

“Discoveries?”

“Yes. First of all, Zeros-san’s enchantment returned on its own after one minute.”

Apparently, unlike magic that ends after one shot is released, the ones that are permanently activated, such as enchantments, are returned on their own after one minute of use. This time limit may change with future increases in skill level.

“Also, I couldn’t borrow Zeros-san’s spirit descent and demon possession.”

“…Is it because of the contract?”

I’ve made a contract with Yug and the others called naming, and they’ve lent me their power. Without a contract, in principle, no matter how close we may be, she cannot use the power of spirits, devils, or beasts.

“My explanation of my borrowing eyes is roughly like this.”

“Thank you.”

Carina’s borrowing eye is more powerful than I thought. I wonder if Carina is aware of that?

My Lightning triple-half enchantment can’t sustain itself for even a minute with the amount of magic Carina has. In other words, She doesn’t need any magic power at all in between to activate what she borrows.

Furthermore, if I were to suddenly strengthen it so much, my body normally would not be able to sustain it. Yet, Carina moved as if it were natural during the activation. In other words, there’s no or very little burden on the body. When I noticed this, for a moment, I wondered if there would be no risk if Carina borrowed and released the divine lightning bolt just before it was activated. I thought. However, that divine lightning was given directly from the goddess. So even if she tried to borrow it, there was a greater chance she wouldn’t be able to borrow it. Even the hero couldn’t copy my divine speed reflex.

Such a borrowing eye also has its weaknesses. First of all, you can’t borrow anything new unless you return everything. And after a day has passed, the borrowed items are returned by themselves. And, although this is a weak point, when borrowing magic before activation, the magic isn’t yet complete, so the power of the magic is reduced.

If this weakness is reduced or eliminated in the future when the skill level of the borrowing eye is increased or when she evolves, Carina will be much stronger.
