I'm Actually Not Overpowered!

Chapter 149 The Legendary Dragon Slayer Uses Legendary Runes Too?! [Pt 1]

I had planned on disposing the leftovers into Inventory after everyone was done eating. The purpose was to recycle the ones I could, or at least see if they had any use in the future.

I doubted leftover chicken or a couple grains of rice and vegetables would make any substantial difference, but I wasn't a fan of waste.

To my surprise, there was no need to consider those things. After all... there were no leftovers!

Down to the bones of the chicken, and to the last grain of rice... everything was devoured.

Even Sarah, the most pristine of everyone, ate everything on her plate. I didn't know if they were doing this out of respect for me, or because they were simply that famished, but... it was surprising.

'I usually don't eat with everyone in the settlement. Is this how they all eat? They make sure to clear their plates...?!' My internal eyes widened in shock.

An emotion swelled up within me. It was none other than pride.

'You guys... you guys are the best!'

While I didn't particularly encourage eating every single piece of meat being offered to someone, I was still moved by their reluctance to waste.

Long story short, the lunch break was over, and only the plates returned to my Inventory—a well-enjoyed meal.

"So, how do you feel now?" I asked them with a smile.

Of course, all their responses were positive. Smiles filled their faces, and even Zabdel's previously pale form had bright color.

Their happiness and satisfaction brought joy to my heart. After all...

'Mission complete! You're all loving my food, right? Well, rejoice for this free meal. Next time you want to taste it, you'll have to pay! Hahaha!'

I could see my future being bright already. Not only was I going to take in money as a merchant, but my deep connection with Dulum would earn me a good deal of the riches they would soon possess thanks to this amazing stock of resources!

'Make sure you're good customers in the future, you hear? Hehe...'

"Now, then, let us begin..." I whispered, staring at the wide expanse of land before me.

The people around me had already helped to gather some Mana Chalk and Mercury for what I wanted to try out.

'A Magic Circle I haven't been able to use yet because of the amount of Mana it requires...' A smile formed on my face.

Now using my Skill [Rune Crafting], it was going to be a breeze. Plus, with the high quality Mana Chalk and Mercury with me, the effects were bound to be dramatic.

Usually, engraved Magic Circles functioned by either collecting the Mana within the ground, or around them. The Mana Chalk served as an initiator, the Mercury served as the conductor, while the surrounding Mana served as the fuel.

Depending on the quality of the Mana Chalk and Mercury, it was possible that certain Magic Circles would fail due to the insufficient threshold that was required.

pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 The Magic I wanted to try out was very advanced, so I required high quality materials.

Also, since the Mana required to fuel the Magic was immense, a place bustling with Mana—like this haven—was perfect.

'Time to start transcribing!'

************

Asa closely watched the Legendary Dragon Slayer draw out a Magic Circle.

It was too complex for her to comprehend that she was in awe once again. She had studied certain Magic Circles, as part of her basic education, but never had she seen such an intricate design before.

Not only did it seem to contain undecipherable advanced language, it was also large.

Magic Circles needed to be precise. A small error in their construction could ruin the desired Magic... or could even result in a completely different result.

That was why the few Magic Circles which were ever used by her people were carefully transcribed. Sometimes, days were spent on single Magic Circle in order to get the exact measurements and symbols correctly.

Yet...

'He's so fast!'

Asa didn't doubt the results, though. She believed in the Legendary Dragon Slayer with all of her being. Whatever he was doing had an amazing end, she was well aware.

'He's so fast and skilled. Not only is he unrivaled in combat, but in Magic Circles too. Is there anything he can't do?'

The answer in Asa's mind was a big NO.

"All done." His voice startled her, causing a slight yelp to escape her lips.

Her eyes widened as she witnessed the amazing Magic Circle. It was extremely large—enough to contain a hundred people and still have room within it. She couldn't decipher it at all, or recognize its use.

"I linked it to my Mana signature, so it'll respond to me when I want to activate it." The Legendary Dragon Slayer spoke, stepping away from the Circle.

He stretched out his hand toward the Circle and smiled confidently. Asa got goosebumps instantly.

"Gate."

>BZZZZZZTTZZZZ<

Sparks of blueish white light radiated from the Magic Circle.

Like electricity, flashes surged forth, and in a few seconds, something akin to a whirlpool of energy formed within the circle.

It was a swirling pond of concentrated Mana, having light blue and white hue circling around it.

"T-this is—!" Asa had heard of the tales from her people, but she didn't actually think she would ever lay eyes on it.

"Indeed. It's Advanced Magic called gate. It links one to any location and transports then to their desired trajectory."

It was a Magic lost to knowledge, and this was quote different from usual teleportation Magic Circles.

Unlike the general teleportation Magic Circles that had fixed locations to transport their passengers, this particular kind could take a person to whatever location they desired.

"For nornal teleportation Magic Circles, there has to be another Magic Circle in the prescribed destination. Both circles resonate and a path connects. But this is different..." The Legendary Dragon Slayer added.

Asa was beyond amazed. What he called 'normal' teleportation was the highest kind of spatial Magic her people could ever use. It was the apex.

Yet...

'Amazing!'
