I Am Not A Goblin Slayer

Chapter 524: Chapter 294: Kill: 8000_2

However, this time it was different from before. Under Gauss’s conscious control, the magic quickly flowed into his mouth.

It combined with the oral mucosa on the roof of his mouth.

If someone were to pry open Gauss’s mouth at this moment, they would discover that crimson magic patterns were already glowing inside.

Even his tongue had turned bright red.

”Release.”

A thought flashed through Gauss’s mind.

He opened his mouth.

The next moment, a bright red Flaming Arrow shot out from his mouth.

”Swoosh!!”

The Flaming Arrow had an extremely fast initial speed.

It tore through the air in an instant, finally hitting the rock Gauss had aimed at beforehand.

”Boom!!!”

Firelight burst forth!

A head-sized black hole was blasted into the giant rock.

It was a success on the first try!

”Cough cough!”

Gauss coughed lightly twice, smoke following from his mouth.

”!!!!”

Beside Gauss, the dragon beast Hephaestus, who had casually crushed a goblin underfoot, turned its head in shock toward Gauss’s direction.

It stared at him intently.

Then turned its head to look at the rock that had a crater blown out.

With its peripheral vision, it seemed to have seen a familiar scene.

But it wasn’t quite sure...

Gauss didn’t pay attention to its reaction.

However, he was also ready to experiment once more.

This time, he switched to the Magic Missile.

The Magic Missile was of a higher level than the Flaming Arrow, but fortunately, it was also a magic he was very proficient in.

So after a brief moment of meditation, he once again found the feeling of casting the spell.

”Magic Missile!”

Familiar magic flowed into Gauss’s mouth through his throat.

His throat emitted a bright blue light through the skin.

In the next moment, the familiar magical fluctuation completed its condensation in his mouth.

Gauss had cast Magic Missile so many times that as soon as it gathered in his mouth, he knew the spell had succeeded!

”Boom!”

He opened his mouth to release.

A streak of bright blue light shot out from his mouth.

Waves of air rippled around the Magic Missile.

It finally hit precisely on the crater created by the Flaming Arrow earlier.

”Boom!!”

The commotion was even greater this time.

Fragments of stone splashed as the dust and magical waves dissipated, leaving an even deeper crater with spider-web-like cracks spreading outward.

Another success.

Gauss couldn’t help but feel a bit pleased.

He felt that his magical talent seemed to be improving.

Even though they were the two magics he was most familiar with, successfully casting them on the first attempt after changing the casting method already demonstrated the outstanding nature of his current magical talent.

Not far away.

The dragon beast Hephaestus’s pupils suddenly contracted.

It blinked.

This time, it had watched Gauss the entire time, certain it had not mistaken.

No matter how it looked, it felt familiar. After pondering for a moment.

Isn’t this the move it uses most often?

How did Gauss master it as well?

And not only could he spit fire, but also that kind of blue orb?

”Poof!”

It hesitated for a moment.

Then spat out a mouthful too.

But what followed was still only flames.

Why can’t I do it?

Its mind was filled with enormous confusion.

Gauss, on his side, swallowed his saliva.

”Cough cough!”

After casting with breath twice.

He discovered that this new casting method had many benefits.

The first was secrecy.

Compared to normal casting, breath casting was more covert, like a sneaky arrow.

One could release immediately, the preparation process was already completed beforehand.

So it was difficult for enemies to guard against.

His throat and mouth seemed to have undergone some sort of transformation, becoming simple magic organs.

Before releasing, magical fluctuations were isolated and protected by an invisible membrane around the mouth and throat.

Only when he opened his mouth would its ”fangs” be revealed.

So insidious...

Even Gauss himself had to sigh in admiration.

Imagine you’re having a face-to-face conversation with a normal human, and suddenly without any warning, they release a magic attack from their mouth. Who could react in time?

As for power, Gauss felt the potency of breath casting was alright.

Holding a Magic Wand allowed enjoyment of equipment bonuses, making casting slightly stronger than under normal circumstances.

However, the amplification wasn’t significant; the terror mainly lay in its speed and concealment.

Moreover, stability was better too, possibly due to the auxiliary of the magical organ.

”Cough cough!”

However, breath casting wasn’t without cost.

Gauss’s throat and mouth now felt slightly numb.

Even though they’d undergone transformation, he wasn’t a Giant Dragon, nor could he reach the physical level of a Giant Dragon.

At least not yet.

Thus, after casting, his body inevitably faced a slight impact.

”Within an acceptable range.”

Gauss swallowed twice.

The symptoms of mouth heat and numbness induced by magical fluctuations subsided.

So breath casting couldn’t be released frequently and consecutively, needing to cool down after overheating?

Gauss pondered in his mind.

Additionally, a 1st-level Spell slightly increased the burden on the mouth compared to a 0th Ring Trick.

What about the 2nd-level Spell or the 3rd-level Spell?

Actually, the Fireball Technique in Gauss’s expectations should be very suitable for breath casting.

Because this spell requires a period of preparation time, which often allows for enemies to react.

If part of the preparation time could be completed in the mouth, the subsequent release would be quicker, making it harder for enemies to react.

Flying Technique - Master of Stable Spellcasting - Breath Casting - Fireball Technique.

Mouth-held Magic, sounds like it has potential.
