I Reincarnated as the Mob Flame User Destined to Die in the Early Stages of the Game, but When I Cleared the Event Before the Protagonist, the Heroines Followed Me

Chapter 13 – Almost 17

I spent my days defeating monsters around the village, and by the time I was 16 years old, I was also requested to escort people gathering medicinal herbs.

There are only a few monsters now around the village, so it’s time for me to move on.

I went solo to the Kobold Dungeon, a large cave in the forest.

In the game, you have to conquer the starting dungeon and defeat the bandits before you can conquer this dungeon, but for me this is less difficult than the starting dungeon.

My HP and physical defense ranks are SS.

Kobolds only do physical attacks, so they’re basically just EXP and don’t pose a threat at all.

The poison attacks used by Poison Spiders and Poison Snakes in the starting dungeon are more troublesome.

Furthermore, it’s possible to hunt kobolds efficiently at low cost.

Even if something unexpected happens, I’m faster than kobolds.

At worst, if I run away, I won’t die.

Just like in real life, being able to run quickly and escape in emergencies is important.

I placed dried meat in the dungeon, and kobolds gathered immediately. They like meat, so summoning them doesn’t cost much.

A kobold is a humanoid monster with a dog’s face that carries a spear and is characterized by its quickness.

When over 20 Kobolds gathered, I unleashed High Fire.

[Level increased from 39 to 40]

I fired a range area-attack in the confined passages of the cave, wiping them out in one fell swoop.

My magic attack rank is SS.

Furthermore, my magic attack power is increased by 1.5 times due to the unique skill “Fire Enhancement.”

Place the dried meat → Kobolds will gather → Defeat them all in one-go with High Fire.

This alone is enough for the kobolds dungeon.

My stats are the perfect match for this dungeon.

I’ve visited here many times and hunted kobolds.

My level has risen to 42 now, but since it’s hunting weaker opponents, leveling up has become slower.

Furthermore, I took all the treasures in the dungeon and got another ticket.

Now I have two Karma Tickets and Dust only has one.

There’s only one Karma Ticket left.

I headed north from the starting village at the southern tip of the country.

I stayed at an inn in North City, the largest city in the south.

There’s an orc camp halfway between this city and the royal capital, Mild, to the north, and there’s a Karma Ticket there too.

I need to collect all the Karma Tickets before Dust takes them.

Dust tried to use the Karma Ticket on me. It’s dangerous to let him have any more tickets.

I’ll wait until night before going to the orc camp.

A fence made of trees stuck into the ground and tied with ropes surrounded the camp, and inside it were rows of poorly made houses that looked like old huts.

There were only two night guards, and both were sitting and sleeping in front of the gate.

I couldn’t help but raise the corner of my mouth, grinning.

“High Fire! Hahahaha! What a big opening!”

I burned down the shabby gate made of wood and the sleeping Orcs with High Fire.

I then entered the camp through the burnt gate and released more Fire.

“Fire! Fire! High Fire! Fire! Fire! High Fire! Fire!”

While setting the camp on fire, I grabbed all the treasure I could find and the Karma Ticket before quickly getting out.

“The camp is burning well.”

The camp was engulfed in flames, and some orcs escaped from the gate.

“Fire!”

But I defeated the orc who escaped.

[Level increased from 42 to 43]

Experience points from the Orcs who couldn’t escape the flames poured in.

When my MP ran out, I ran away from the scene.

I returned to the city, rested until morning, and headed back to the orc camp at dawn.

Then, I launched another surprise attack on the tired and weak orcs. (T/N: Dem, this guy bullying those NPC orcs… I know this is a basic RPG tactic, but dem…)

“High Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire!”

I raided the camp many times like this, annihilated all the orcs, and reached level 44.

It’s getting harder to level up, but now that I’ve accumulated my goal of 100 million gold, I decided to head to the church in town right away.

Last time I was able to strengthen my stats values with 1 million gold, but this time I need 100 million gold.

I boosted my stats values with 100 million gold.

I took out a note of my status from when I was hunting monsters in the village.

Gett, Human Male

Level: 36

HP: 360 SS

MP: 108 F

Physical attack: 180 D

Physical defense: 360 SS

Magic attack: 360 SS

Weapon: Magic Mace: 220 (Magic power +10%)

Armor: Black iron shield: 70, Hybrid robe: 50, Battle boots: 40

Then, I opened my current status.

Gett, Human Male

Level: 44

HP: 440 SS

MP: 308 B

Physical attack: 264 C

Physical defense: 440 SS

Magic attack: 440 SS

Magic defense: 176 E

Speed: 308 B

Unique skill: Fire Enhancement

Skills: “Mace LV38” “Shield LV33” “Fire LV36” “High Fire LV28” “Heal LV23” “Recovery LV7” “Trap LV10” “Treasure Sense LV13” “Storage LV22”

Weapon: Magic Mace: 220 (Magic power +10%)

Armor: Black iron shield: 70, Hybrid robe: 50, Battle boots: 40

I raised my stats values with 100 million gold, and all the surplus was allocated to MP.

Last time, I was able to raise my talent value with 1 million gold, but it was higher the second time.

I was unsure whether or not to increase my speed to the maximum, but I thought that fire magic would be the key to fighting strong enemies.

By consciously using fire magic, the levels of Fire and High Fire have increased, and coupled with the effect of my unique skill, their power has heightened.

Lately, I have fewer opportunities to use the shield.

Since I only hunted low-ranked monsters, there was no need to use the shield as defense.

Simply getting close and striking with the mace ends the fight without needing the shield.

To become even stronger, I need to improve my equipment and enhance my skills, strengthening my fire magic further.

I’ll be 17 years old soon. I only have a little over a year left.
