Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai

I had no clear idea about its effect, but I knew that each had a specific effect on magical power. When I tried to circulate my magical power, it was indeed moving as I wished. In the 『Convergence』 part, it gathered a lot of magical power, which then scattered in 『Dispersed』 part.

And then the third one was a description of how to connect the magical power's circuit.

In the lithograph magic circle, the circuits such as 『Convergence』 and 『Dispersion』 looked like they were connected with a certain pattern. But, there were parts that weren't connected. It was like wiring an electric circuit with no electricity flowing in, in this case, magical power.

For this reason, circuits such as 『Convergence』 often accompanied 「Connect to 『Dispersion』 from here, The connection was made with patterns and sometimes not, so the pattern of the magic circle itself might have another meaning.

「I can decode it to some extent but… This isn't enough.」

Though I could decipher parts of it thanks to my 『Outlaw Decoding』, it didn't mean that I could use the goma's Lithograph. Nothing happened when I injected my magical power.

Well, only a few could use it even with 『Simple Alchemy Formation』, this magic circle definitely included some sort of requirement such as aptitude.

「How should I use this new skill, Ruinhilde-sama…」

I couldn't really do anything since I could only decipher part of it. Even when I tried to write 『Convergence』 or 『Dispersion』, all it did was make the magical power flow in, and yet, it had no enhancement effect. How should I use this skill, dude?

The undisputably most useless curse, the 『Red Fever』-sama, had abandoned that title after I found out that it was actually a splendid skill that invalidated all kinds of buffs.

Could it be that the 『Outlaw Decoding』 would reign as the new king of the useless curses that lost their previous ruler? This might be the beginning of a new era.

「How's the new curse, Momokawa-kun?」

「Considering the timing, it must be a really awesome one, right?」

Welp, I messed up now, I got too excited with the new curse and ended up boasting to Class Rep and Shimokawa. Now I could easily imagine their dejection and disappointment if I told them that this wasn't the one we needed.

「I-I'm still confirming the effects.」

「Is that so? Usually, I know its effects immediately after I get it though.」

「Coz Shaman has a unique pattern.」

「Whatever, I'm waiting in anticipation, Momokawa!」

「Leave it to me. It should be a really useful one as long as I can master it.」

Damn, their expectation is weighty.

Perhaps I really have no choice but to dispel my doubt by dismantling the magic circle. I had yet to determine whether it would bear fruit or not though.

「Haa~h… Why isn't the effect known immediately…」

I was at a loss since I really had no idea how to use my new curse properly. Maybe it would be much better if I hadn't gotten a new curse at all, unfortunately―― I kept looking for a way to utilize the 『Outlaw Decoding』 in spite of having no expectation from it.

And then, on the evening of that day, a miracle from God or Curse happened.

『Curse Alchemy Formation』：Carve the basics of alchemy formation with your own magical power. Now it's time to look into the abyss of taboo.

Hinagiku-san's skull had awakened a new skill.

The one that brought about the miracle wasn't Ruinhilde-sama, it was the God of Shamanism from Hinagiku-san's side.

「Meaning that I'm already following Hinagiku's School of shamanism…」

I blurted such disrespectful remarks toward Ruinhilde-sama when I felt relieved.

The reason was simply because this skill was the skill that I’d always wanted to get since a long time ago, the upgraded version of my 『Simple Alchemy Formation』.

The reason I'm convinced that Hinagiku-san had learned the upgraded version of the 『Simple Alchemy Formation』 was due to the existence of the 『Poisonous Smoke Bullet』.

When I could use 『Simple Alchemy Formation』, I got 『Poison Arrow』. And yet, I couldn't make 『Poisonous Smoke Bullet』.

It was a really nice magic item that scattered poisonous smoke once thrown. I couldn't create it with 『Simple Alchemy Formation』. I tried every single method I could come up with, but unfortunately, I still couldn't make it.

Thus, I concluded that Hinagiku-san must have gained the upgraded version of alchemy.

And this was definitely her most favored skill.

「T-This is truly a wonderful skill!」

Frankly speaking, now I could create magic items too. To be exact, now I could include 『Core』 as the ingredient.

「As expected, I knew it was a really amazing device just by seeing the 『Black Horn Bow』… And the smoke bullet alone.」

When I could use core, my alchemy skills became more diverse as I could enhance the materials as I wished. Maybe the magical power in the core was some kind of enchanting spell.

That's why, the 『Black Horn Bow』 wasn't just a mere combination of the big horn of a monster, it was also wonderful as a bow.

My beloved smoke bullet had a structure that allowed it to explode upon soft impact.

「If Hinagiku-san were alive, we wouldn't have to rely on Takanashi alone…」

Only now did I understand that she was a precious person with an extremely high alchemy skill. Why did we have to lose such precious personnel… Well, I guess it was a matter of luck, some die while others survive.

「Thank you Hinagiku-san. I'll utilize this 『Curse Alchemy Formation』 in your place.」

This alchemy skill alone allowed me to reduce my dependence on Takanashi's assistance. I could create the ideal equipment in accordance with my plan too.

「Well then, I might've to work overtime for a while after this.」

Now it was time for a happy death march with every staff member working in the entrance workshop. Let's ask Mei-chan to make supper for us too.
