Chapter 260 : Fly (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)
Chapter 260: Fly (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)
A patch of open courtyard.
Gauss stood, full of anticipation.
3rd Tier Spell【Fly】Lv1（1/10）
「Have you really mastered it?」Arya asked again to confirm.
Е̌ n ŭ mа̌
「Do you want to try it first?」Gauss looked at her.
「Well… better not. I'm afraid of heights. I meant, maybe try it on some other creature first, like Ulfen.」

Arya patted the large wolf beside her.
「He's tough-skinned and thick-fleshed. Even if he falls, it won’t hurt him.」
「Forget it, it's fine. I'd rather try it myself for a more intuitive feel.」Gauss shook his head, declining her kind offer.
「Besides, it’s okay. I have a safeguard — Feather Fall.」
W̌ е b̂ ṅōv̊ ē l̄ Ё n um̈ а̀
He had silently purchased and practiced this spell to usability not long after acquiring Fly.
He could prep Feather Fall on himself before casting Fly.
If something went wrong mid-flight and the spell was interrupted, he could immediately activate and cast Feather Fall the moment he began to fall.
The effect of Feather Fall was to drastically slow descent speed and prevent any fall damage upon landing.

Of course, if he were struck by an enemy in mid-air, or fell into a special terrain like lava or a toxic zone, then Feather Fall wouldn't help.
But when used together, in most cases, Fly was still quite safe.

However, one must also recognize that taking to the skies was inherently risky.
High altitude made one an easy target for concentrated attacks, and unlike on the ground, options for evasive maneuvers were limited.
Moreover, as a 3rd Tier Spell, Fly consumed a considerable amount of magical energy and was quite difficult to cast. It wasn't something an average spellcaster could use at will, nor suitable for regular travel — more apt for use in specific scenarios.
These were the risks that came with the spell.
Still, despite all that, the spell remained incredibly alluring.
Gauss’s heartbeat quickened.

He had long yearned for the experience of flight.
「I'm going to begin.」
He informed the others.
Under three curious gazes, Gauss first prepped Feather Fall on himself — in case of any accident, he could instantly activate it from within his body.
Then, he closed his eyes, steadied his excitement, and took a deep breath.
Clearing his mind, he began connecting his body's magical energy to the Fly spell model within him.
W е b́ nо v̈еl̆ Еn̄üm̂а̃
3rd Tier Spell, and currently only 11 (1/10) in proficiency — theoretically, he had overreached to grasp it, so even just casting it was a struggle, let alone aiming for speed.
He silently tried multiple times.

Finally, magic began to slowly flow from the Cup of Magical Power.
Gauss felt the drain of magical energy.
Then, his body was enveloped by a peculiar energy.
First came a faint sensation of weightlessness, and his heels began lifting off the ground.
Е̂nů ṁа
It wasn’t a jump, nor a tug from an external force — it was a natural levitation, as if gravity itself had released its hold on him.
As his thoughts moved—
He willed, “Up!”
Instantly, his body began rising.

One meter, two meters…
The ground silently drifted away beneath him.
Ŵeb́n о̆ v̊ е̄ l Е̌n u m̄ а
Arya and the others’ excited faces shrank below, while the sky’s breeze wantonly swept past his body.
Soon, he soared above the surrounding buildings, climbing ever higher.
Looking down — it was a view unseen by common folk.
What once required him to look up at, the tiled roofs now lay clearly beneath his feet, and the bustling pedestrians and carriages in the distant streets turned into moving little blocks.
He instinctively felt a rush of exhilaration mixed with slight fear — a current-like thrill coursed through his body.
The unshielded winds blew past constantly, making his robe flap wildly and cooling him down.

Gauss felt an unprecedented sense of freedom filling his mind.
All worldly shackles vanished in this moment.
Too exhilarating!
But perhaps, he had gotten too excited.
Suddenly, the light energy surrounding him dissipated.
His body wobbled momentarily, then plummeted toward the ground.
Ӗn u m̊.а̇ . і̇_d̊
With Arya shouting a warning, Gauss activated Feather Fall.
His descent quickly slowed, and he floated down gently.

Gauss's boots touched the ground.
His excitement had yet to fade.
His body and mind still recalled that buoyant sensation of escaping gravity’s pull.
「How was it?」Arya eagerly stepped up to ask.
Ēnum а̊
「Incredible — it felt like true freedom.」Gauss’s lips curled into a smile.
Despite a mild fear of heights in his past life, this first flight hadn’t triggered panic — only a liberating sense of release, an inexplicable calm.
「Still, I need more practice. This spell is quite difficult.」
Even with Feather Fall as backup, constantly “crashing” due to mishaps wouldn’t do.

In real situations, time wasted and missed opportunities were critical — not to mention the magical cost of reascending after a fall.
Since he had reported in advance, he was allowed to continue practicing Fly nearby.
W е̄ b̄n̂ о̀v е́ l Е num̊ а
Soon, he prepared for his second ascent.
This time, he waited until his emotions fully calmed before beginning again.
Feather Fall was cast first, and after a few failed attempts, Fly succeeded once more.
His body was again enveloped by that airy energy, guiding him in all directions at will.
Besides rising, he could also move freely left and right.
But for now, he dared not fly too fast.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Whenever he tried, the flying energy felt unstable.
It was likely related to his skill proficiency.
For now, he could only fly smoothly at a slow pace.
Still, he didn’t go far.
Flying beyond this area would violate regulations.
There was even a risk of being shot down by the city’s giant ballistas.
Е̄ nûmа̄
So, mastering Fly didn’t mean he could go wherever he pleased.
Among the countless paths, safety came first — flight regulations must be remembered.

Further away, a few passersby noticed him in the sky, pointing and watching with envy.
Even commoners knew — flying was usually the realm of “high-level Professionals.”
Here, “high-level” deserved quotation marks.
Because even the basic Fly spell required a 5th-level spellcaster, and to ordinary folk, that was an unreachable “big shot.”

Actually, there was also a 2nd Tier spell called Levitate that allowed one to lift off the ground.
But few learned it solely for the joy of flight — it was usually for emergencies or to float objects.
That’s because Levitate and Fly worked differently.
Levitate only allowed vertical movement, without self-directed horizontal motion. It had a height limit and low tactical flexibility, mostly used to dodge ground threats or reach slightly elevated spots.

Only Fly granted true three-dimensional mobility.
Other than that, one could only rely on some special tools, such as Flight Potions, Flying Carpets, or specific boots, cloaks, or ring-type equipment.

Gauss paid no attention to the onlookers, fully immersed in his practice.
When his proficiency reached I1(5/10), he began attempting to fly with his teammates.
At first, he only dared to bring Arya for a simple trial. Once he confirmed there were no issues, he brought everyone else along.
「Remember not to resist.」
After sequentially casting Feather Fall, he attached the magical power of Fly to his teammates.
Soon, Shadow and the others felt the same weightlessness as Gauss.

And soon after, they could freely fly on their own.
Yes, once Fly was cast, their subsequent flight paths were controlled by themselves, not by Gauss.
The only thing he could do was to activate and cancel the spell effect.
The spell consumed his magical energy and required his ongoing maintenance. If the spell was interrupted, the target would fall.
Just like Gauss, his teammates—experiencing flight for the first time—were all extremely excited.
Even Arya, who could fly by transforming into animals, said that flying in animal form felt completely different from using Fly in human form.

Everyone moved freely through the air.
Still, Gauss reminded them not to fly too fast, or there was a risk of falling.

In truth, Fly benefited Gauss the most.
Because he had some long-range attack methods, against opponents with no anti-air abilities, he could float above and gain superior visibility and attack range, launching strikes from above where the enemy couldn’t even touch his hem.
As for the others, the benefits were relatively limited.
However, Gauss still urgently needed to further improve his Fly proficiency.
E n u ṁ_a
Casting another spell while in mid-air greatly increased the difficulty.
He needed a much higher mastery of Fly.
Fortunately, for Gauss—who had Interface ability—the hardest part of learning Fly was getting started.
Once past the initial stage, he could rapidly accumulate skill proficiency through repeated practice.

Through continuous training, the proficiency of Fly and Feather Fall both steadily improved.
3rd Tier Spell - Fly Lv2(17/20)
Wе b n о́v еl̆ Е n̊ u_m̀а
1st Tier Spell - Feather Fall Lv3(5/50)
Looking at the results of his training, Gauss was fairly satisfied.
Whenever he had nothing to do, he would practice Fly—not necessarily flying high, just hovering a few fists above ground was enough.
But honestly, Fly did consume magical energy at an alarming rate.
Normal-speed flight was manageable.
But the moment he accelerated even slightly, the energy drain ramped up.

Bear in mind, Gauss had an abnormally large mana pool—at least several times more than other spellcasters of his level.
Even so, he still couldn’t afford flight freely.
No wonder people rarely used it.
Even a 5th-level spellcaster who had mastered this 3rd Tier Spell likely couldn’t use it frequently due to mana limitations.
So while the apparent requirement was level 5, to use it comfortably, the actual level needed was much higher.
As for flight height, there was no fixed cap, but caution was still advised.
Ē ň ùmа. і d
The higher he flew, the thinner and colder the air became, and the air currents grew more turbulent.
Moreover, Feather Fall—as a safety net—did not have unlimited duration. If the altitude exceeded its effective range, it’d be GG.

For now, he could only maintain a height of a few hundred meters.
He had also tested his current flight speed—roughly 15 meters per second. Not fast, but sufficient.
That was about the normal driving speed of a car on a city road in his past life.
And that speed could increase with his Fly proficiency and magical strength.
W̆ӗb̊ ñ о́ vė l E̊ ńů.m̈ӑ
But still—the faster he flew, the more magical energy he burned.
At his current level, he was still a ways off from achieving those high-speed, evasive, spell-slinging aerial combat feats seen in his past life’s movies.
Back to reality.
Gauss rode atop a Chocobo, Sena City fading behind him.

Beside him, Arya and the others quietly admired the scenery.
This time, their party’s commission wasn’t at sea—it brought them inland again.
Wе̊ b̊nӧv él Е̄ num̂а̇
Perhaps due to Sena City’s recent unrest, both Rachel and Adele had recommended he accept a commission far from the coast.
This commission was quite interesting.
It was a long-term one.
And also an unofficial commission from the Adventurer’s Guild.
Apparently, their perfect performance on the previous special commission made the guild more confident in entrusting them with such “internal” and discreet tasks.
In other words, they were now considered half-insiders.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Gauss thought about it for a while and did not decline.
Because this commission was a perfect match for their team’s current situation.
The commission's content was to support and train the militia defense forces in the villages or human settlements north of Sena City, and to clear out overly active low-grade monsters in the surrounding regions.
This commission didn’t have a hard kill quota and focused more on “training.”
The payment was weekly, and all loot obtained during the commission belonged to the party.
Each person earned 15 gold coins per week.
Е̊n̆ u mȧ . ї d
For Gauss, who still had over a hundred gold coins on hand, it was a decent commission.
Mainly it was relaxed, and provided ample opportunities to deal with low-level monsters.

He also needed time to digest his recent harvest—master Fly, rehearse coordination, keep learning Fireball, and practice all the foundational skills of his Secondary Profession【Sword Soul】.
「I need to hurry and study these basic sword and fist techniques during this time.」Gauss said, holding a skill book in hand.
They weren’t particularly difficult.
Just basic techniques to help improve militia physique—and maybe spot promising talents to guide onto the path of becoming Professionals.
Еñ umа̄ .і d́
「Let me take a look too.」Arya chimed in.
All four of them had received some foundational training techniques and knowledge related to their own professions.
A dozen kilometers away, inside the East District office of the Adventurer’s Guild—
Rachel stood at the window, facing a certain direction.

「They should be on the road by now, right?」
「They’ve been on the road for a while,」Adele replied.
Е ňǔḿа .ī_d
「Hope their journey goes smoothly.」Rachel thought of Gauss.
He truly was a Professional with extraordinary talent.
This commission was tailored for him.
Ordinary adventurers wouldn’t even get a chance to touch it.
Only seedlings like Gauss, already marked for potential by the Adventurer’s Guild, would receive such treatment.
On the surface, it looked like a menial and thankless task—just with slightly better pay—but the underlying significance was far from simple.

Because this kind of commission allowed adventurers to build reputation massively.
Almost every legendary adventurer who rose to fame had similar experiences.
Leaving their footprints across the countryside and borderlands, safeguarding peace in these lands—letting their names spread quietly from mouth to mouth among the people.
