====================================
15 October 2030.
It has been a month since we came to this fortress by the Forest of Death.
We ran out of food several times and had to go back to the camp behind us and Isaac but we have been able to fight almost continuously on this frontline and have become much stronger than before we came to the Margrave Isaac territory.
I am still fearful of the deep area in the Forest of Death so we kept fighting enemies on the outer perimeter. Sometimes magic beasts from forest depths appeared on the outer perimeter as well but we were able to defeat them without difficulty. The results of the past month were as below.

I think I should be completely at the top of the B-rank adventurers even if I say so myself. First of all, my magic power exceeded the target of 100.
And because I had been using Blizzard all the time, my talent in Water magic became D and my level went up by 5. My Fire magic is now level 4, and my Sky Eyes has risen to level 10. Many things were enhanced when Sky Eyes reached level 10.
The Vision can see about one second ahead and the appraisal of the stats of magic beasts has become more detailed. ...Well, it means that the performance of a cheat skill has been polished further.

Clarice has completely settled in the middle of B-ranks.
Since late September, she had been fighting mainly with Swordsmanship and Water magic so those two levels had improved. And her beauty was further improved. Could it be that Clarice becomes prettier as her level increases? I don't think I need her to be any more beautiful…

Her HP is the only one in Daybreak to exceed 100. However, her growth direction is worrying. Her stats is outstanding but she struggles when she is one against many. Also, her skill level doesn't go up as much.
However, she herself doesn't care about any of that and kept sticking with me. Well, in terms of one-on-one she is incomparably strong.

In the Forest of Death, I couldn't use Fire magic as often so the level hasn't risen that much but my strength, agility, and dexterity values have increased considerably so I can watch the rest’s battle with more peace of mind than before.
Name: Misha Febrandt

Misha is probably the one who has the biggest growth in Reimei. She is also the second highest level in the party with a level of 39. The way Clarice and Misha, who were chanting Blizzard together with me, improved their levels was amazing.
Until now, I had only used Water magic as a blinding spell but before I knew it, it had become my main attack. Clarice and Misha became the two main Water magic users in Reimei.

Baron was Minerva's chaperone all the time so he only had the opportunity to defeat killer ants and sometimes mother ants.
It seems that he went up to level 30 with just killer ants but after that his level didn't go up even if he defeated considerably more killer ants. I also had one challenge for Baron.
I told him to only use swords and Earth magic. This is a strategy to develop his strengths due to his low dexterity.
I still don't know if that succeeded or not but Baron seemed to be convinced and his swordsmanship level and Earth magic level went up by one.
Name: Dominic August
Title: -
Status: Human race, head of the Baronet August Household
Condition: Good
Age: 10 years old
Level: 30
HP: 70/70
MP: 60/60
Strength: 46
Agility: 44

Dexterity: 28
Durability: 46
Luck: 5
Special Ability: Swordsmanship (Lv7/C)
Special Ability: Wind Magic (Lv3/E)
Equipment: Sword of Black Iron.
Equipment: Shield of Black Iron
Equipment: Heavy Armour of Black Iron.
Dominic is without doubt the one who had changed most in Daybreak.
First of all, his fighting style has changed drastically. In the past, his combat style was to dodge first and finish off the enemy but now he is completely playing the role of a tank.
And his equipment has also changed drastically. The cloak of evasion he had been equipped with had been completely melted away by the killer ant's acid attacks.
So when I went back to the fortres city of Isaac to replenish the supplies, I bought a new set. He didn't even have to change his sword of gale but he wanted them all to be the same color.
The Black Swordsman... I think I heard somewhere that a Black Swordsman is also known as Harem Master...Starburst something... Well, their fighting styles are completely different though...
Name: Minerva Xevious

The much waited our Minerva’s stats showcase.
All of us were cheering for Minerva who was working single mindedly to raise her level. And her fighting style has been established to a large extent.
Although she still has low strength value so her chains attacks are not her main weapon, she has developed a style of distracting her opponents with chain attacks and stopping them with Water magic such as the Ice Lance.
If the chains is able to block the enemy's movement, she still has the style of using a sword to quickly end the enemy.

Finally, Ryner. Some might question "What about Bram?" but Bram can no longer be leveled up by the level of enemies here so I'll leave him out.
His stats is low for his level, but that's only because it looks that way compared to the members of Reimei.
“Lady Recca. Thank you very much for the past month. Thanks to you we have become much stronger. I am going back to Lister Imperial School a little earlier than planned. I will probably come back again so I look forward to meeting you again."
Currently, I'm at the fort saying goodbye to Recca. I've decided to go back to the Lister Imperial School because many people were saying that they’ve become strong enough and they would like to go back. I'm a lot stronger than the goal I set so I need to let off some steam. I don't want Clarice to cook for me all the time too.
“Of course. You guys have been endless surprises for me. I have a favor to ask of you. Can you do me a favor and spar with me?”
Recca asked. Come to think of it, one of the purposes of my coming here was to meet up with Recca who is said to be closest to an A-level adventurer...
“Understood. What are the rules?"
I asked and to my surprise, Recca replied, "Anything goes". Karen objected at one point but in the end, it turned out to be a serious match.
Recca is clearly the more experienced fighter of us. But I have overwhelming higher stats. I knew the outcome before we started.
Karen signaled, "Start," and Rekka's Salamander three section staff extended. The heat conduction is very fast...as you would expect from someone who is used to using it.
But I soon realized my weakness. I made a stone sword again with Earth magic, and held it up in the same way, waiting for Recca's Salamander three section staff to attack.
Then the three-section staff extended in the same way as before but this time I bounced it with my stone sword with a backwind (a slash from the bottom up), and the staff fell away from Recca's hand.
The strength values are overwhelmingly different and the agility values are also different. Recca cannot receive the slash at this speed. Recca had a surprised expression on her face but she immediately attacked with a magic attack.
“Flare Bomb!”
The magic is about to be manifested with her voice "Flare Bomb!" but I block it with my Wind magic. The firepower of the attack was much lower and I was able to easily offset it with Ice Lance.
Recca blurted out, "Impossible" as she prepared for the next Flare Bomb but this is where I came in to end the battle. I deployed Sylphid at full strength and went behind Recca, placing my stone sword on her neck.
“That’s it!”
Karen's voice was heard a couple of seconds after I had propped the sword. Karen also seemed to have lost sight of me for a moment.
“What a ridiculous...I was serious from the start...I expected that salamander three section staff wouldn't work but I didn't think my Fire magic to be completely ineffective as well. ...This is my first time being blocked when manifesting magic...is that Wind magic? Is invisible magic possibly the most powerful after all..."
She asked as she hung her head.
“Yes. That is Wind magic. As expected I can't receive a direct hit from the magic that looks so dangerous. What kind of magic is Flare Bomb? May you show it to me?"
When I answered and then requested to see the Flare Bomb, Recca said.
"Okay. This is a magic that explodes when a Flare hits something directly. It is possible to make it explode without a direct hit but the power is weaker. You have to be at a very high level to handle it.”
The moment the Flare hit the rock, it exploded and shattered the large rock. I can't believe he was aiming this kind of magic at me. ...I was pale but Recca laughed at me.
“I didn't think it would hit you anyway. I thought the Wind magic would throw it off course. Well, I used it because I believed in you, Mars. I apologize if I offended you."
“No... thank you for trusting me.”
I answered so even as my face turned blue.
“Even so, a first-year student who is stronger than a Knight Commander, albeit the no.2 of the Duke Fresvald household... Sir Fresvald really has a good eye for people, doesn't he? Mars, please take care of Lady Karen from now on!"
Recca bowed to me.
“Lady Recca! Please raise your head. I will take good care of Karen."
After that, we packed up and left the fort with the entire Daybreak team. Thus ended our training in the Margrave Isaac territory.
