Even if it looked unharmed, it was possible that I had done decent damage.

 

Thinking this, I looked for magic that would allow me to see the dragon’s status.

But…unfortunately, I could find no such magic.

It was not an easy problem to solve then.

 

‘Yuji. It’s not working!’

 

‘The dragon is really angry!’

 

In any case, I knew that ‘Hellfire of Obliteration’ was not going to work.

It wasn’t as if it did nothing, and perhaps if I used it repeatedly within a barrier, I could do more damage, but that seemed like a far cry from defeating it.

‘Hellfire of Death’ had a wider range, but it wasn’t going to make much of a difference against a single enemy.

 

I needed magic with a narrower area of effect and higher attack power.

That would be magic that worked well against a dragon.

Though, Hellfire of Obliteration was magic that focused on a small area, so it would fit into that category.

 

I wanted to try using some other magic, but the magic that was in the same class as Hellfire of Obliteration all used a lot of MP. So I couldn’t use them casually.

It was very inconvenient when you didn’t know the effect of your own magic.

I had acquired them through the slimes reading some books, but I didn’t know what they did until I actually tried them.

 

So in order to find good magic quickly…it might be good to search for the right attribute.

I remembered there was magic that allowed me to do that.

 

‘Magic Transfer–Determine Attribute!’

 

In this world, the monsters were not conveniently categorized as ‘fire’ or ‘shadow’ types.

However, magic had attributes, and so there were attributes that were more effective than others.

 

…Or so I had read in the book.

Up until now, I had just been using Hellfire of Death without much thought, but perhaps the time had come for me to care about attributes as well.

After all, dragons seemed like they would be strong against fire.

 

I thought this as I waited for the results.

However–what appeared a few seconds later was not what I was expecting.

 

‘Blue Dragon of Delight.’

Resistance against: Earth, Wind, Water, Shadow.

Weak against: Fire, Light.

 

…Fire had been its weakness.
