My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

Chapter 507

It was difficult magic for humans

“Um… In the first place, is it really possible to use magic to make your movements faster?”

Up until now, all the magic I had learned about had to do with wind and fire.

Perhaps if you enveloped your body in wind… But there had been no indication that Liza had done that.

“Mr. Takumi. There is magic that can strengthen your body. Sometimes, there are soldiers and guards who can do it. …It is like a trump card.”

“A trump card? So it is possible then…”

Phillip answered that it could be done.

But it was rare, and quite difficult to do.

“Because there is a price to pay…it has an effect on you afterwards.”

“In order to draw out this power, you will feel pain and fatigue later. According to what I heard…it is much worse than any kind of sore muscle. You might even have trouble lifting a single finger.”

“Though, the effect is very impressive. It is said that it more than doubles your strength… But it also depends on the user’s magic. Also, you can only cast it on yourself, and not on anyone else.”

“I see… Yes, that would be like a trump card. While you cannot use it casually, in desperate situations…”

Exactly.”

I didn’t know how bad the pain was, once the effect stopped, but if it was anything like Sebastian described, I would not want to use it.

Well, unless my life was in danger while being attacked by a monster.

Though, I would have to run to a safe place or kill the monster first.

But wait…what about Liza?

“…Liza seems to be just fine over there.”

“That is what’s strange. When humans use magic like that, they always feel pain and fatigue afterwards…”

However, when I turned to look at Liza, she did not seem to be suffering from any problems at all.

If anything, she seemed very energetic as she splashed her hands in the water and laughed.

She was clearly used to the river now.

“It might be something unique to the beastkin. As I said before, the beastkin are more athletic compared to humans… And perhaps that is not only because of their bodies, but because they can use such magic.”

“Hmm… Well, that is probably why people spread rumors about them being monsters. Everyone knows they are stronger than the average human. And during the war, people saw their terrifying speed and strength.”

“Yes. If there were beastkin who could strengthen their bodies without the pain, then they would have been used to fight. Perhaps the beastkin are better suited to strengthening magic, then magic involving fire and water.”

“Hmm. Then the idea that most beastkin not being able to use magic might be outdated.”

So unlike with humans, there was no risk to using it.

“It’s kind of like the body strengthening herbs that I made. Though, the effect is not as strong.”

“Indeed. But even if the effect is weaker, it’s great that there is no pain. Depending on how you use it, your herbs can be more useful than human magic.”

While it was probably an exaggeration, it was indeed less risky.

But it really did not strengthen you that much.

I suppose you could carry ten or twenty extra kilos, and run a little faster.

Still, it was better than nothing, and other people could use it as well.

…Perhaps, like the time I had healed Sherry’s injury, and made a herb that was more effective than Loe, I could also make an even better body strengthening herb.

But then again, I fainted after that. And it was possible it would have some effect on me. So I was better off avoiding that.

But wait…if the beastkin could use body strengthening magic…then what about beast monsters… Since Sherry could already use magic?

Or even Leo?

“Do you think it would be possible for Sherry and Leo to use body strengthening magic without pain as well?”

“…”

All of them thought about it with serious expressions.

“What if…Leo were to use body strengthening magic like Liza…?”

“Leo does not even use her full strength already. And it’s still hard to follow her…”

“I don’t know about Sherry, but it would not be strange if good Leo could use it…”

“Ah…”

Everyone seemed to then imagine what Leo would be like if she were to increase her strength, and they all became silent.

Silver Fenrirs were already said to be the strongest monsters. And so we did not even want to think about it, and quickly tried to turn our minds away…
