Welcome to the Reverse Realm!
"It's only been three days, but they've already caught up with
us..."
"They're monsters!"
Clarissa said, poking Harbel's shoulder.
"Harbel's magic power is so beautiful!"
"Yeah, I've never seen such smooth magic power other than
the master's."
"Moreover, it's controlled so thinly and firmly that you might
think the amount of magic power is very small at first
glance."
"You won't even flinch if you're shot with a normal gun anymore."
"And he's been maintaining that state all the time..."
"He's a genius..."
"Good morning, Nell, Clarissa!"
"Good morning, you've completely mastered magic control."
"No, not yet."
"What do you mean!"
"Huh?"
Harbel himself doesn't seem to have noticed how amazing he is.
"Harbel, which attribute did you decide to raise after all?"
"Ah, I thought I'd raise the light, darkness, and water attributes mainly, but the master said it would be better to raise the wind too..."
"I see, four attributes are tough..."
"Seriously, the master is a demon..."
"By the way, Harbel, do you know the magic color of your attribute?"
"Magic color?"
"Take a good look at our magic power."
When Harbel stared at the two of them,
"Ah, the magic power looks like a three-colored marble pattern."
"That's right, you can guess the main attribute to some extent by that color."
"I see."
"By the way, light = yellow, fire = red, wind = green, water = blue, earth = brown, darkness = purple, no attribute = white. Harbel's magic is also seen as white."
"I didn't know that..."
"Then, if I mix the fire and earth attributes, which I haven't raised much, into the magic power like this, will people who don't know me misunderstand?"
Harbel said that and instantly changed the magic that covered his body into a marble pattern of red and brown.
"Huh, what are you doing?"
"What do you mean?"
"Ah, I'm so stunned that I can't say anything..."
"Normally, you can't freely show attributes other than your main attribute, and such quick magic manipulation is impossible..."
Nell and Clarissa couldn't hide their surprise.
"But if you do this, it will look like weak fire and earth attributes, right?"
"Hmm, you might be able to deceive beginners."
"That's no good..."
"Yeah, you'll be found out by skilled people because your magic manipulation is too beautiful."
"I see, I didn't notice."
"Then, how about this?"
Harbel manipulated the flow of magic and created a blurred boundary.
"Ah, you might not know about that, how can you control it so freely!"
"I'm completely defeated..."
"So, where do you guys do magic attack training?"
"Ah, the master was calling us about that matter."
"Let's go!"
"Yes!"
"Harbel, you've come. Today, I'll teach you only the basics of surface and reverse abilities."
"Only the basics?"
"Surface and reverse abilities are powers that will be needed when the time comes, but it's still too early."
"Understood."
"Reverse/Surface!"
Leafia said that and made a gesture as if cutting through the space in front of her.
Then, a crack-like thing opened in the nothing, and it looked as if another space was spreading inside.
"What's that?"
Harbel was surprised and took a stance.
"Ah, don't worry, this is a dimensional rift called "lift" to move to the "Reverse Realm"."
"Um, I don't understand what you're talking about at all..."
"Well, for now, let's put the details aside and move to the Reverse Realm."
Saying that, the three disappeared into the lift.
Harbel hurriedly followed.
There, a scenery that I had never seen before spread out.
It was like the world on the surface, but not like it, and there seemed to be many unfamiliar animals.
It was a little dim and had a fantastic atmosphere.
"What is this place?"
"This is the Reverse Realm, and it is an area that basically only those with surface and reverse abilities can enter."
"What is the surface and reverse ability that you have been talking about since earlier?"
"I can't tell you the details yet, but in the past few decades, some reincarnated people have developed abilities with two sides."
"That's the surface and reverse ability?"
"Now we know the conditions for its development, but the conditions are strict, so I'll tell you properly when the time comes."
"Understood."
"For now, the Reverse Realm is a completely different space, so basically you can do anything. You can even hunt the monsters there."
"I thought there were some unfamiliar creatures, but they were monsters..."
"However, never leave this area. If you are found by other Duals, you will die instantly. This area is my domain, so other Duals cannot enter or leave."
"Dual?"
"Ah, people with surface and reverse abilities are commonly called Duals, and there seem to be multi-ability users called Multi, but basically they try not to reveal their Reverse/Surface, so I haven't seen them before."
"Reverse/Surface?"
"It's the unique name of the surface and reverse ability, well, I'll tell you about it later..."
The story was blurred.
"Harbel, you can freely unleash your magic here!"
"Shall I take on the challenge?"
Clarissa took a fighting stance.
"Clarissa, wait!"
"Yes, master..."
"Instead of attack magic suddenly, I'll explain how to handle weapons while also doing magic power manipulation."
"Yes, master!"
"First, choose your favorite weapon from there."
There were all kinds of weapons placed there.
"How could you collect so many..."
"Well, there are various connections behind the scenes, so don't worry about that, have you chosen?"
"Well..."
A knife is easy to handle and can be hidden, but it's weak, right?
A gun seems strong, but you'll be caught immediately in that world...
A bow is also compatible with poison, but it's inconvenient to carry around...
Swords and spears are also inconvenient to carry around...
After all, a knife is the best here.
"I'll take this knife."
"Correct answer!"
"Correct answer?"
"The weapons here are all powerful, but the knife is a general sale item. If you have such a weapon in the Surface Realm, you will be caught immediately, so you usually use something that is not strange to have."
"Well, there are some guys who don't care about that and use guns and swords..."
Clarissa looked disappointed.
"Certainly there are such guys, but we are different. However, you can use any weapon in the Reverse Realm, so if you want to try other weapons, try them on this side."
"I will keep that in mind."
"Let's go monster hunting in the forest over there right away!"
Clarissa grabbed Harbel's hand and pulled him away.
"It's my first time fighting with a knife, so I'm nervous..., oh, the mouse from the other day!"
"Ah, that's a Dela Big Mouse!"
"Okay, Dela Big Mouse!"
Harbel came out in front of the mouse and took a stance, then stabbed it with a knife.
The mouse dodged nimbly, and he tried to cut it with a knife many times, but it didn't hit at all.
"Ugh, Dela Big Mouse is too fast!"
"Harbel, like this!"
Clarissa stood in front of the mouse with a knife in her hand, and suddenly the mouse attacked.
She pierced it with a knife and killed it. Then the mouse disappeared and an item dropped instead.
"Wow, Clarissa is amazing!"
"Hahaha, Harbel..."
"What's wrong suddenly, Nell?"
"The one from earlier was just a Big Mouse."
"What? Isn't it a Dela Big Mouse?"
"Hahaha!"
Clarissa is laughing and rolling around.
"Why did you lie like that?"
"I just wanted to say it!
Hahaha..."
"What is that... Fufufu..."
"Hahaha"
Everyone just laughed and rolled around.
