As I was going to give the Commander backup, I suddenly found myself facing three enemies on my own. As for the mage, he was already starting to cast his next spell. Realizing I didn’t have time to focus on him, I sent a fireball flying his way. Since I didn’t have Magician equipped, I didn’t have Fireball. I did, however, have enough ability with Fire Control that I could send the equivalent of a Fireball out. If it struck head-on, it might just be enough to burn someone, but only barely.
Compared to a true Fireball spell, which took some time to cast, it was both weak and pointless. However, any living being would have to react to a fireball like it was a real one. If he guessed wrong, its strength might be enough to cause him to lose his head. No one would bet their life on a split-second decision, and thus the mage jumped out of the way and broke off his spell. Even so, casting that with my level of Fire Control not supported by the job system, it hit my mana. It used a good tenth of it, which was almost as much as opening the Portal and keeping it open for that entire length of time. That was the difference between the efficiency of a job skill and attempting to do it from memory.
That said, eventually, with enough practice, my Fire Control could theoretically reach a point where it worked clearer and more efficiently than the job skill offered. At that point, I’d be a magic master though, and forcing Fire Control spells wouldn’t be something I’d be dwelling too much time on. I supposed that was the one weakness of having so many jobs and rapidly leveling. Carmine had said it herself. Where normal people focused on a single job, maybe with a hobby on the side, honing and perfecting it over a lifetime, I was just layering jobs on top of jobs. I had a feeling it was not how this system was set up to function.
Either way, skills were what I had, and after taking the star potion, I no longer had the restriction put upon me by that demon lord. I blinded the demons with Dark Light, which was a flash of blackness that left them unable to see. I then used a Shadow Step mixed with a Dark Slash, taking out one of them right away. The others let out cries as they jumped back.
At the moment, I had True Hero, Hero, Dark Knight, and Mimic equipped. Mimic was allowing me to continue my Karmic Espionage. I was afraid that if I gave it up, I’d no longer be Drakus in the mind of these soldiers, so I had to sacrifice a job to that ability. With Moderate Swordsmanship and Basic Weapon Proficiency, I was pretty skilled at fighting as well. I was eagerly awaiting Advanced Swordsmanship and Moderate Weapon Proficiency though, as I never felt quite as good as my opponents. If I didn’t have higher stats and more skills, I felt like I would lose.
