With the study of [Cat's Paw], 220 XP points remain, leaving 120 points.

Looking at the remaining 120 XP points, Arthur was planning-

[Wand Fighting] Lv3, 80 XP.

[Noise] Lv4 and 40 XP.

Just right!

As for the [Extreme Illusion True Shadow Technique] that was placed at the forefront of the second echelon by Arthur?

XP is not enough!

You can only learn it when the next wave of XP is soaring.

Although the promotion and alienation of the bloodline, Arthur's [spirituality] has risen sharply, and the secret techniques that could not be learned before can basically be learned, but among the many secret techniques, Arthur still chose [Wand Fighting] and [Noise Technique], except that the XP is not enough, you need to be careful and calculated, and the two secret techniques already have a foundation, it is these two secret techniques, which are too hidden and convenient.

Needless to say, Noise Technique.

As a young, kind, upright and simple 'medium', [Noise Technique] is almost going to become Arthur's exclusive skill.

That feeling of having its own BGM and changing at will really makes Arthur love it, and it can be said that except for the [Hand of Nothingness], no one can replace the position of [Noise Technique] in Arthur's heart.

And the [Wand Fighting Technique] is completely in line with the world in front of them, people may be wary of a person with a sword and a firearm, but they will definitely not care about a person with a cane.

Because, there is a high probability that the other party also has one in his hand.

It's just that the other party would never have thought that a cane could fight like a good fighter-

[Wand Fighting Lv3: In the middle of the Silver Age, an alchemist 'Ms. Abel' created this secret technique, the original purpose was just to make up for her lack of physical strength and make it safer when going out to find materials, but as time went by, she continued to improve this secret technique, and finally reached the current level: Effect: Consume some physical strength to cast a secret technique in the figure compound 'Ga', give the staff magic power, and turn into a wand with fighting ability in 1 minute]

(Note 1: The caster has and only one 'wand')

(Note 2: When the 'wand' in your hand is completely broken, you can choose a new 'wand')

(Note 3: The 'wand' cannot leave the caster's 7 meters radius)

(Note 4: Lv3's 'Wand' fighting ability is equivalent to that of a combat master)

……

“Ga！”

With a soft groan, the cane with a cat's head on one side came to life directly, and under Arthur's gaze, it whipped, parried, and poked at the invisible enemy in a deft and skillful way, although it was not held by a human and lacked the assistance of another arm and legs, but the attack method was not lacking in the slightest.

On the contrary, because there is no one to hold it, the attack of this cane is even more bizarre.

Because, even the most proficient in martial arts, they can't see the changes in their steps and shoulders from a cane, so as to 'predict the prophet' in advance.

In a very short period of time, it is easy to deal with 5-6 people with weapons and no armor.

If you encounter an opponent in armor, you can also choose to lengthen the battle line, as long as it is not 1 minute up, or if you encounter a mysterious person, you can also be invincible! ’

Arthur watched the speed, strength, and skill displayed by the cane, and silently assessed it in his heart.

Arthur was already satisfied with the cane's performance.

As for actually meeting a knight dressed like a tin can, or a mysterious person with treacherous abilities?

He had always been well prepared with firearms and explosives.

Holding the cane in the palm of his hand again, and rubbing his palm against the cat's head a few times, Arthur's eyes looked at another secret technique that had just been upgraded—

[Noise Lv4: Although most people think that it can only play pranks, or drive away wild cats and wild dogs, etc., but the Imperial court mage 'Charricot' thinks it's not fun enough, so after discovering this secret, this old friend ' Harrington's court mage, who refused to play cards, began to perfect this secret technique when he was bored, but most people were not interested in the latter part, and the effect: Based on spirituality, it consumes a trace of physical strength, and the silent recitation of the diagram can create a loud noise or three rustling sounds within a radius of 18 meters from the caster. 】

(Note 1: Loud noise is about 110 decibels)

(Note 2: The sound of rustling can be the sound of the wind blowing through the window, the sound of leaves, or some footsteps, or the low sound of boys and girls crying, slurred words, angry wails, or the sound of cracked crotch, farting, and smiling)

……

After seeing the unique 'channeling sound' of Lv4's [Noise Technique], Arthur directly clenched his fist, wanting to say 'Well done' to the master.

It wasn't the 'stomachache channeling' he wanted, but in some ways, it was enough.

Especially in specific cases.

For example......

In the ring of the 'Sword Fighting Tournament'!

As long as this voice sounds, anyone on the other side will have a broken mentality.

Of course, you can also take off your pants to prove your innocence.

However, in a way, the latter is more mentally destructive than the former.

'You'd better not mess with me!'

Otherwise......

I show you what it means to be 'better to live than to die'! ’

The young 'psychic' let out a strange smile in his heart as he looked at the 100 XP required for Lv5's [Noise Technique].

Obviously, Lv5's [Noise Technique] has also undergone unusual changes.

Arthur was full of anticipation for this.

What could it be?

Could it be a shrew scolding the street?

Or a graceful moan? ’

According to the character of the court mage 'Charricot', Arthur guessed.

At the same time, the young 'psychic medium' began to sort out the 'new house gift' he received tonight -

Malinda, a recipe called "Exquisite Ingredients and Cuisine".

Maltz, well, is also a recipe called "Simple Cooking".

Scott, a pen with a water reservoir.

Wiggins, a gold-encrusted handcuff.

Heywood, from a table clock, to a small 20-gram gold ingot.

Linda's gift is the most interesting and elaborate one, an orange kitten doll, the size of a palm, which can be wound with a twist of the tail, and when it is fully wound, the kitten can pace back and forth on the ground, with a steady and realistic look, just like a real kitten.

Apparently by a famous artist.

Except for Malinda and Maltz, the things sent by several people can be regarded as in line with their own identities.

Wiggins was born with a penchant for weapons, and if he had money, he would naturally decorate them.

Heywood valued money, and after the failure of vassal elegance, only the love of gold remained.

Linda has that lady Camille, so she is naturally going to the route of excellence.

In short, everyone is dedicated.

As for Malinda, Maltz?

After the former has paid for [Glory Elixir (Perfect)], [Black Cat Boots], and [Cat's Claw], it is impossible to prepare precious gifts, even if these things are promised rewards.

It's just human nature, nothing else.

And Maltz?

Most likely, he thinks he lacks everything, but he lacks shortcomings in cooking.

Or rather, the old sheriff was afraid that he would be hungry.

Moreover, it seems that he was worried that he would be persuaded by the complicated cooking process, and deliberately chose the simple type.

Arthur smiled at this.

'My cooking...... Get serious and get scared! ’

Arthur thought to himself, and began to turn the tail of the orange cat doll in his hand again, and after watching the orange cat doll run around again, he looked at the last gift.

Brought by the Priest of the Diocese Sheriff Cook, he remembers it as a book.

'It's not going to be a recipe, is it?' ’

Arthur thought to himself, and then picked up the book, but he was stunned-

Well?
