episode7~12 Encounter with Miti and Yuna

I came to the slave factory.

It's a little off the main street.


There is a gatekeeper at the entrance, so I feel a little nervous.

The exterior of the building is beautiful.

It doesn't feel like a "slave factory".


Well, even if I'm shown a slave who is being abused, I don't have my spirit.

This would be welcome with this.


However, in this situation, the direction of "buying and spoiling slaves in a terrible environment" may be a little strict.

It seems that you can earn a certain degree of loyalty just by spoiling it normally, but it is far from the loyalty level of 50 that can give blessing.


By the way, my current money is 7 gold coins, 10 silver coins and 12 bronze coins.

There are iron coins and coins under the bronze coins, but I will keep them for now.

It is about 81,200 yen in Japanese yen.


I knew it, but it's definitely not enough.

Well, let me just preview it.


If you take the plunge and try to enter the store, you will be stopped by the gatekeeper.

I'm a little scared with a stern face.


"Please wait. Please refrain from bringing weapons into the store. We will keep them here."


It's a surprisingly polite tone.

Gently hand over the weapon and have it kept.


I don't have much anxiety about handing over weapons.

Naturally when you think about it.

We sell expensive products that are comparable to jewelry.

I'm sure he's wary of robbery.


When I entered the store again, a young clerk guided me to a place like a reception room.

Sit on the sofa. Tea is served.


I am impatient with the polite hospitality.

Isn't it sharp if I say "I only have 7 gold coins" after receiving this kind of treatment?

I am anxious.


From my appearance, you will feel the atmosphere of "I don't have much money".

Apart from that, this level of hospitality may be normal.

Is it something like "even a sly customer will be entertained for the time being"?


When I was thinking about such things, a clerk about 50 years old came into the room.

Sit on the sofa opposite me and talk to me.


"Customers who have kept you waiting. Welcome to Raga Slave Company. What are you going to do today?"


"I'm an adventurer, but I want to buy a combat slave that will add to my strength. But it's my first time in a few minutes, so I don't know the market price of slaves. In the sense that I have a goal, I wish I could have a preview this time ... "


You don't have to be bad at it.

I'm full of anxiety, but I spoke honestly.

Perhaps my anxiety was on my face, he replied with a gentle voice.


"Yes, it's okay. It's an expensive purchase, and it's normal to make a decision after a lot of consideration. Especially in our shop, there are many relatively young adventurers, because they don't know the market price. Many people are on the road, so what kind of combat slaves do you specifically want? "


"If you have the spirit to fight monsters and the minimum fighting ability, you don't need that much ability. I'm still a fledgling person. But if possible, a young woman is good."


To tell the truth, young women are almost a prerequisite.

I like girls.

However, it's embarrassing to stick too much.

At the end, I cheated with a casual addition.


Then he smiled meaningfully and replied:


"I understand. Under that condition, the price is about 400 to 600 gold coins. It's just a guide. Do you actually see it once?"


When I nodded, he went out of the room once.


Maybe it's a prospect.

He said that young adventurers would come occasionally, and he may have had such exchanges many times.


Wait quietly as it is.

Will you bring me to this room?

Or I'm going to see it, but are you preparing now?


After waiting for a while, he returned to the room.


"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. The slaves are ready, so please come here."


Follow the directions to a different room.


When I entered the room, seven slaves stood side by side.

There is a sofa at a distance.

I was prompted to sit there, so I sit down.


"Then I will explain each slave."


So speak in a whisper.

I wonder if there is something like privacy even though it is a slave.

I don't seem to explain it out loud.


Listen to his explanation.


The daughter on the far left is a human in her early twenties.

She was originally a villager and she has hunting experience.

She is a decent beauty.


The second daughter is a human in her late teens.

She is a little timid.

Her appearance is healing.


The third daughter is a beastman in her late teens.

Her fighting ability is high for her age.

She has a beautiful look with crisp eyes.

She has a slender figure.


The fourth daughter is a dwarf in her late teens.

Generally, many dwarves are dexterous, but she is naturally clumsy.

She can't smith, but her power is strong.

She looks a little childish for her age.


The fifth daughter is a beastman in her early teens.

She has a criminal history, but her ability is certain.

Her eyes are cloudy.


The sixth daughter is a human in her mid-20s.

She is sexy.

She's obviously not for combat.


The seventh is a human man.

Late 20s. He is a former adventurer and has a good ability.

He is solid.



The first daughter is a safe word.

When she looked into her eyes, she felt a decent amount of vitality.


The second and sixth daughters are really worried about her fighting ability.

It's because she has her true ability to fight without blessing.


The third daughter looks good.

However, she feels that her gaze at me is cold.


The fourth daughter looks good too.

She has been glancing at me for some time.

I wonder what?

She doesn't care about her.


The fifth daughter has resistance.

The first slave is a criminal slave, which has a slightly higher hurdle.

Her eyes are cloudy.


The seventh man is not bad.

However, I am not confident that I will be able to receive protection.

Mainly my spiritually.

Spoiling a good old man ... I can't.


I wonder if the 1st, 3rd, and 4th are good.


I asked the clerk how they became slaves, but they didn't answer.

Even though it is a slave, there is something like privacy.

However, none of them have a criminal history.


I also asked the price.


The first human is 500 gold coins.

For young women, about 500 gold coins seems to be the most common price for slaves.


The third beastman is 900 gold coins.

It means that the price is jumping due to its high fighting power and good appearance.


The fourth dwarf is 400 gold coins.

The general impression is that dwarves are blacksmiths.

Of course, there are many dwarves who work other than blacksmiths.

But even in such cases, they usually get jobs that require manual dexterity.

"Clumsy enough to be blacksmithed" seems to be a big negative for dwarves.


Well, let's leave it at this level for today.

It's just a preview.

I don't actually buy it.

It's really bad to stay longer than this.


The clerk also cut it out as if he felt it was about time.


"How is it? Did you find it helpful? It's a preview today, but when you buy a slave, please use our shop."


"Yes. It was very helpful. Thank you very much for your kindness today."


With that said, I try to get out of the room.

When I looked at the slaves, I saw a dwarven daughter.

She has her name "Miti".


Hmm.

I feel like she has met her once somewhere.

But I can't remember.


Speaking of my taste, she is the best.

She's cute no matter how many times she sees it.


She smiled as she stared at her.

Return to the inn from the slave factory and lie down on the bed.


Miti's last smile was crazy.

She fills her breasts just by remembering.

Let's call her smile "Angel's Smile-Angel Smile-".

I intended to just preview her, but I really wanted her.


No, isn't it just my taste?

I tried her blessing skills and she had the highest loyalty.

She hasn't spoken a word, but her loyalty is 18!


Higher than the receptionist of the Adventurer's Guild.

I've been meeting for the last few days.

It can't be helped to be lower than the older brothers who spent three days together.


I don't really care about being clumsy.

I'm going to get rid of monsters instead of blacksmithing.


Oh, I have no choice but to buy this!

Encounter with her is just fate!

What do you call this without calling it fate!

I'll pick you up right now, My Angel!


I would like to say.

As a practical matter, there is not enough money at all.


She has to save money before she sells.

After that, she asked the clerk, "She will pay the advance payment so please don't sell it to others."

It seems that there is such a service with a prepaid service of about 20% of the price.


Her price is 400 gold coins.

Even 20% of the advance payment requires 80 gold coins.

Quite far.


Up to now, I have earned up to 5 silver coins per day.

If you subtract the accommodation and food and drink charges, you can only save about one silver coin per day.

It takes 800 days at this pace.


Of course, this is only if it was efficient.

There are 65 skill points that have been put on hold without being used.

I will use this to make a plan for money.


It is quick if you take healing magic and treat intractable diseases of aristocrats.

However, the risk is high.

I don't know what healing magic is, and I wonder if it can be cured.

Even if it can be cured, it has become famous for the calyx, and it seems that it will be involved in troubles.


Why don't you take healing magic and give moderate treatment to the general public?

Or how about taking production skills?

These are also useless.

If you do not defeat the monsters, the level will not rise.

You cannot improve your skills unless you raise your level.

It may be stopped.


Is it best to take combat skills and hunt dogs steadily?

If you improve your swordsmanship and avoidance skills, you can earn more than 10 silver coins in a day even solo.


No, there is a problem.

The corpse of a fighting dog cannot be carried alone.

It would be tough to rent a cart.


Do you want to have a party?

It's no good.

It was certainly recommended by the older brothers for safety, but it was said that the per capita reward tended to decrease.

In the first place, dog hunting is enough for me alone.


I still want an item box.

I want it anyway.


Do you want to take space magic?

Do you feel suspicious of people in the guild?

I don't know the rarity of the item box.

No, according to the big brothers, there are some high-ranked adventurers who can use the item box.

It shouldn't be a super rare.


…………………… Okay, let's take space magic.


Consume 10 skill points in status management, select and execute space magic items.

The field of vision flashes for a moment.


That's the correct answer.

Apparently the item box belongs to space magic.


The activation method comes to my mind.

Space magic level 1 is an "item box".

The size is about 50 cm x 50 cm x 50 cm.


It's just a small accessory case.

Not suitable for storing fighting dog corpses.

I want an item room that will be a higher version.

By the way, let's raise the space magic to level 2.


Consume 5 skill points in status management, select and execute space magic items.

The field of vision flashes for a moment.


Alright!


Space magic level 2 is an "item room".

The size is about 2m x 2m x 2m.

It's enough to carry with one carriage.

In Japan, it's a rather small single room.


The item box and item room seem to be independent of each other.

Put daily necessities such as money in the item box.

And in the item room, I will put the corpse of the fighting dog.


The remaining skill points are 50.

Now that I can use the item box safely, I will take the plunge and shake it.


Changed swordsmanship from level 1 to level 3.

Increased physical strengthening from level 2 to 3.

Acquired a new evasion technique.

Obtained new physical strength enhancement and made it level 2.


Swordsmanship and physical strengthening are to speed up the subjugation.

Avoidance is to increase the safety of subjugation.


Strengthening physical strength is to reduce break time and use time meaningfully.

Health enhancement seems to be increased by 50% for each level 1.

Because it is specialized, the ratio is higher than physical strengthening.


Now, this will make dog hunting much more efficient.

I've used up all my skill points and I have no choice but to do it.

Space magic level 2 "Item box, item room"




From the day after I went to the slave shop, I just hunted dogs.


The first day was a reward for nine silver coins.

The benefit of having a swordsmanship level of 3 is great.

It feels like the sword-handling has improved rather than the attack itself being strengthened.

You can fight back even from a slightly broken position.

Flexibility was born in battle.


However, the exhaustion of physical strength became severe by that amount.

It is the correct answer to save physical strength.


Physical strengthening is still overshadowed.

Enemy attacks are rarely hit thanks to evasion, but be alert.


The more new skills you get used to, the more you can go.

Return to the guild with that conviction.


The receptionist seemed surprised that I could use the item room.

If I stagger properly, I won't pursue it too deeply.

Is it not good to snoop too much on the adventurer's personal information?



The second day was a reward for one gold coin and three silver coins.


I feel that my skills have become familiar to my body.

Swordsmanship skills have a particularly large impact.

Through the actual battles, I gradually became aware of what swordsmanship skills are.


Let's compare it with a Japanese fighting game.

If you have swordsmanship skills, it seems that "command input for each technique" becomes easy.

It is assumed that there is a technique that is activated by inputting in the order of "left, lower left, lower, A, B".

For ordinary characters who do not have swordsmanship skills, it is necessary to enter "left, lower left, lower, A, B" at the right time.

In the case of a swordsman level 3 character, the technique is activated only by "left / bottom / A".

The timing judgment is also loose.


In addition, physical strengthening and physical strength strengthening are skills that simply strengthen the character's attack power and speed.

If you are not good at judging the situation, you will not be able to take full advantage of your high status and sword judgment.

After all, in order to utilize my swordsmanship skills, my own practical experience is also indispensable.

It is out of the question to close your eyes when the other person comes close to you.



The third day was a reward for one gold coin and five silver coins.


The level went up to 5 on the way.

There is a feeling that the capacity of the item box and item room has increased.


It may have a correlation with your own level, magic power, and MP.

Probably magical power.

It will be clear if you take the skill of "strengthening magic power" when you can afford it someday.

It is less important to verify now.


Item boxes and item rooms seem to consume MP all the time, depending on the mass and volume of the items they contain.

The amount of consumption is almost unknown with money, but the amount of consumption when packed with a lot of fighting dogs cannot be ignored.

MP consumption today was pretty close.


Therefore, I will spend the skill points 20 obtained from this level up and take it as a skill related to MP.

There are three candidates: "MP enhancement", "MP consumption reduction", and "MP recovery speed enhancement".


After thinking about it, I decided to strengthen MP.

Raise to level 2 at once.

The remaining skill point 5 is put on hold.


This time, I didn't strengthen my direct combat skills.

However, the basic status is rising.

Hunting efficiency should definitely improve.



The fourth day was a reward for one gold coin and eight silver coins.


As expected, hunting efficiency has improved.

Let's do our best tomorrow with this condition.



The fifth day was a reward for two gold coins.


I thought I could go a little longer, but I couldn't meet the fighting dog well.

You should also consider taking a sign.

The grasslands around here have a good view, so there is no point in taking them halfway.

If you raise it to about level 3, it may be more effective than you can see.



The sixth day was a reward for two gold coins.


There is a feeling that it has completely leveled off.

The number of fighting dogs themselves is clearly decreasing.

Is it the effect of hunting a lot?


When I consulted with her receptionist, she was advised to form a party and go to another hunting ground.

That might be good too.



●●●



where is here……?


I should have slept in the inn.

Before I knew it, I was in a fluffy and mysterious space.


Suddenly, Miti was standing in front of me.

A man like a fat pig next to him.

He wears a number of flashy ornaments.


A man takes Miti's hand and tries to take him.

Miti looks at me with eyes asking for help.


I run up and try to pull the man away from Miti.

However, a clerk of a slave shop appeared there.

The squid gatekeeper is also with me.


I'm pressed against the ground.

Miti is taken away.

I'm looking at me with sad eyes.


Damn, if I had more money ………….

If you have more power ………….



●●●



I had an unpleasant dream today.

I hurriedly went to the slave factory in the morning, but Miti was there.


I worked hard on the 7th day of hunting so that that unpleasant dream would not become a true dream.

After hunting safely, we are heading to the Adventurer's Guild in the city of Raga.


Level 6 went up in the middle of the hunt.

I wanted to use my skills immediately, but I need to think about future plans again.


For the past few days, I've earned two gold coins a day.

At this pace, you can collect 80 gold coins in about 30 days, including your current money.

Considering that it will be more efficient as the level goes up, it will actually accumulate a little faster.


It's a realistic number of days, but there's no guarantee that she's left unsold until then.

Decide to move the hunting ground.

I wish I could find a party well.


Arrive at the guild.

Give the guild card to the receptionist.

Please report the subjugation and purchase the materials.


There were two gold coins today as well.

It has been stagnant for the past few days with about two gold coins.


After all let's move the hunting ground.

When I was thinking of talking to the receptionist about the party, I was approached by a trio from behind.


"Hmm. You're a dog hunter Takashi. I've heard rumors!"


"It seems that you are hunting a ridiculous amount of fighting dogs. It's a waste to use it for dog hunting because of its fighting ability."


“………… Yes”

Title: Dog hunting




I talked to a relatively young trio.


The first is a slender woman who seems to be strong.

Is she in her late teens?

She has long red hair and is straight.

She seems to be using a bow.


The second is Muscle Uncle.

She is tall and her arms are thick.

She seems to be in her twenties.

She carries a big sword on her back.


The third is a man who hides his face with his bangs.

I don't know his age.

He is probably about 20 years old.

He has a solid metal armor covering his entire body.

He seems to use a sword and a shield.


Anyway, "Takashi dog hunting"?

Did such a street name spread in the meantime?


When I was wondering how I answered, the receptionist said:


"Oh, Takashi-san. These people are the" red big fangs "of the D-rank party. When I talked about Takashi-san's success, I definitely want to have a party."


The big fang is that big sword.

It's not red.


In any case, the party solicitation is a ship.


"Oh, was that so? Hello everyone, Red Fangs. My name is Takashi, an E-rank adventurer."


When I said hello, Uncle Muscle replied.


"Oh, I'm the leader of the D-rank dreads. They're party members Yuna and Sieg."


"I'm Yuna. You're not good at it. You can also use the item room."


"There. Would you like to have an extra party with us? Starting tomorrow, there will be a three-party joint medium-scale expedition. For five days in the West Forest, the main targets are goblins and crazy rabbits."


HM.

It's a very interesting invitation.


For the time being, four people sit at a nearby table seat to hear a detailed story.


"I'm ashamed to say that I've only fought fighting dogs. Of course, I don't know anything about goblins and crazy rabbits. Can you tell us what you need to be aware of when fighting?"


"Yeah. First of all, both goblins and crazy rabbits act in groups. If you're fighting alone, you'll soon be surrounded and you'll end up with a party."


"Goblins have some intelligence, unlike fighting dogs. You can't just thrust them in a straight line. You also use weapons. Basically, it's about a club made of wood, but a sword or bow stolen from a person. Some people use


"After that, goblins are vulnerable to fire. It's effective enough if you can use it even for beginners of fire magic."


"Crazy Rabbits have low fighting ability and are basically mild-mannered. However, the only and most important thing to note is that they attack the first person who attacked the flock like crazy. Only the attack power of is not odd. "


"On the contrary, there's nothing else to watch out for. While Zeek is enduring the attack, we'll definitely annihilate it. Takashi should never attack first? "


“………… Leave the defense to me”


I see.

Is this person in full-body armor the role of attracting attacks?


"What if a monster other than the target goblins and crazy rabbits appears?"


"Other monsters are ... Little Bear Hound Wolf Poison Cobra."


"Little bears have a high fighting ability. It's a good idea to go through as much as possible, but if you encounter them, you have to fight."


"The Hound Wolf only attacks the lower ranks. It's okay if you have a large number of people. Poison Cobra is awkward to poison. I have prepared a poison extinguisher, but it is safer not to fight."


"Well, if you can easily beat dogs, you don't have to worry so much."


I understand well.

There seems to be no problem with combat.

Let's save fire magic for goblin measures later


"Thank you for the detailed explanation. What will happen to the reward?"


"The reward is divided into four equal parts. The specific reward depends on the occasion, so I can't say for sure. However, it will be higher than hunting a fighting dog solo. You can expect it. In addition, Let's put out 5 gold coins in a separate frame for the item room. How about that? "


It's a pretty good condition.

One gold coin per day for the item room alone.

Goblin and Crazy Rabbit subjugation rewards and purchase rewards are added to this.


"Yes. That's fine for the reward. I would love to join the party. So what are your plans for the future?"


"Oh, would you like to join us! I welcome you. The expedition is scheduled to depart tomorrow morning. Please wait at the west gate. Isn't it late?"


"Hmm. Well, we're on, so there's no danger. Rest assured."


"…………Correct"


"I understand. I look forward to working with you tomorrow."


Shake hands with the three and then break up with them.



I came back to the inn.

Lying on the bed.


Let's save the fire magic.

The current skill point is 25.

Acquire fire magic and raise it to level 2.

Level 3 is still premature.

The image of fire magic flows into my head.


Fire magic level 1 is "Fireball".

High power can be expected when used at close range.

However, if the distance is 10m or more, the power will decrease steadily.

It seems that it is more suitable for subs by people in close proximity such as swordfighters than it is used by wizards.


Fire magic level 2 is "Fire Arrow".

This has a long range, but its power is low.

You can make a tingling attack while having the avant-garde protect you.

Besides, it may be used to set fire to the monster's nest.


It seems that it can also be used for fire attacks in war.

Is there a war in this world?

I don't know because I've never left this city.


If you use fire magic in the forest, you are worried about forest fires.

Just in case, get water magic.

The skill point is now 0.


Water magic level 1 is "water ball".

It's about the size of a baseball ball.

If you activate it continuously, you can use it for some fire extinguishing activities.

The speed is not so high, so you can't expect the power.

Is it okay if you think you can produce drinking water?


There is a margin in MP because the MP enhancement was set to level 2 the other day.

However, from tomorrow, the prey for four people will be stored in the item box.

I don't know how much MP will be consumed.


Basically, attack with a sword, and if you can afford MP, you can use fire magic.

Depending on the usability of fire magic, it may be possible to acquire MP-related skills in the future.


Looking forward to the expedition from tomorrow, I fall asleep.

Title: Dog hunting




Tomorrow morning, we will meet three people at the west gate.


"Oh Takashi. It's pretty fast. Put this food and camp equipment in the item room."


I packed it in the item room as Dread told me.

The tent is a little big, but overall it's not that big.

There is still space in the item room.


"Oh, are you still in? Then please put this in too."


When he had a generous face, Yuna asked him to store the arrow.

It's from the second day onwards, so I don't seem to use it today.


“………… I also ask for this”


Furthermore, Sieg asked me to store it.

It's a replacement leather armor.


Luggage was added, but there is still room.

There are more MPs that recover naturally than MPs that are constantly consumed by the item room activation.



After a while, when I looked around, there were two other parties.

It's a four-person party and a five-person party.


The self-introduction time started before departure.

Personally, I'm not good at it, but I can't help but do it.


First of all, from our party.


"Dread, the leader of the" Red Fang ". My weapon is this big sword."


"Yuna. I'll use a bow."


"......... Sieg. Attract attacks with a shield."


"I'm Takashi. I fight with a sword, but I can use a little fire magic."


You don't have to bother talking about the item room.

Anyway, I can only carry for this party.

I talked about fire magic without hiding it.

I want to use it to raise the level of pounding.


Self-introductions of other parties have also begun.


The four-person party is a D-rank "black whirlwind".

It's a party for men in their twenties.

Three are swordfighters, wearing blackish armor.

One is a porter.

A large bag is carried on the back, and a simple cart is also available.


The five-person party is a C-ranked "bearer of humanity."

There are three men and two women.

The leader man is in his thirties.

Use a spear at C rank.

One of the women is also C rank and seems to be able to use medium water magic.


After all the self-introductions have been completed, each leader gathers to discuss something.

Apparently they have decided on a formation.


The leader is the "bearer of the blue sky" who has the highest fighting ability.

"Red big fangs" with good party balance are in the center.

And the "black whirlwind" is behind.

This is what happened.


Start moving to the forest.

The distance between the parties is several tens of meters.


Several monsters appeared along the way, but they were subdued without any problems.

After walking for about 2 hours, I finally entered the edge of the forest.

There is a place in the forest that is suitable for camp, and it seems that we will aim for that first.


Encounters with monsters have increased.


Most of the monsters have been successfully subdued by the leading "bearer of the blue sky".

They seem to own an item bag.

Store most of the material.

There are no parts left that are likely to make a lot of money.

I thought I'd get the leftovers, but it's a shame.


"Don't let your guard down because there aren't many battles. There are also attacks from the side."


So be careful with dreads.

After walking for a while, two goblins jumped out of the bush next to it.


"I wonder if it's the remnant that" Sou "was fighting a while ago. It's not a big deal about two."


"Just right. Let's fight Takashi for one. I'll beat the other."


This is the first battle with a goblin.

Since it looks humanoid, there is a feeling of tension that is different from that of a fighting dog.

I'm holding a wooden club in my hand and listening to what's going on here.


Alright, let's use fire magic while the opponent doesn't move.

There is still room for MP.


Start chanting in your heart.

Hold your right hand forward to activate magic.


"Fireball!"


A fireball is fired from around the palm of your hand.

The speed is hmm ... OK.

Is it about 60km / h?

If you're not careful, you'll hit it, but if you're careful, you'll be able to avoid it.


Fortunately, I hit the goblins.

It seems that he is suffering from heat, but it seems that he cannot beat it with one shot.

Well, there was a little distance.


Then start chanting in your heart.

Extend the index finger of your right hand forward to activate magic.


"Fire Arrow!"


A fire arrow is fired from around your fingertips.

The speed is much faster than the fireball.

He hit the goblins brilliantly and got stuck.


By the way, vocalization and hand shape are just image aids.

If you try, you should be able to activate it silently or with your sword in your arms.

It's a little less stable, though.


Looking around, it seems that the dread battle is over.


"Well, it's pretty fire magic. In addition, you can use a sword and an item room."


"Hmm. It's quite a talent. Please save the MP for the item box properly?"


There is a feeling that MP has decreased a little.

The fuel economy of Fireball and Fire Arrow seems to be quite good.

But just in case, let's fight with a sword for a while.


After that, there were several battles with goblins.

I didn't encounter Crazy Rabbit.


Some time after noon, he arrived at the camp.

The leaders are consulting something.

Yuna explained that she was waiting at a distance.


"I'm going to hunt here for 5 days. If the MP in the item box is tight, I can put it out here. During the day, one party takes turns on the camp and the other parties Hunt freely. Cooperate at night and watch the night watchman. Maybe I'm packing in detail by now. "


After a while, the dreads came here.


"I've talked about the night watchman. Divide each party into three groups and share them to guard."


Get a detailed explanation.

To summarize, it looks like this.


At first, there are 2 humans, 1 large fang, and 1 whirlwind.

Next, there are 2 humans, 1 large fang, and 1 whirlwind.

Finally, one person, two large fangs, and one whirlwind.


It seems that people who are whirlwind porters are exempt.

I can't fight anyway.


After being lightly hungry, the four of us go hunting.

The bearer of Soujo seems to remain in the camp.


I took a walk for a while and encountered a crazy rabbit.

It's a cute creature.

I don't feel so crazy.


"Because it's cute, don't let your guard down. There are casualties every year."


Yuna advises so.


“………… Leave it to me”


Zeke attacked one.

Immediately, the crazy rabbits looked ferocious and crazy.

All at once, they are heading to Sieg and attacking.

Indeed, this is crazy.

It's scary if I'm attacked.


"Oh, don't be foolish. Now that Sieg is attracting attacks."


Subdue the crazy rabbits that are flooding around Zeke.

Even if this attack is made, it hardly looks at it.

I'm just attacking Sieg.


All have been successfully subdued.

The level went up to 7 on the way.


Looking at Zeke, there are new scratches around the metal armor.

It doesn't seem to hurt her body, but she seems to be out of breath and tired.


"Oh. Sieg did well. Is your body okay?"


"…………no problem"


"Hmm. I've reduced the number a lot. Please keep Takashi and Crazy Rabbit's corpses in the item room."


Store the crazy rabbit.

Dead in a terrifying form.

I even feel like it's about to start moving.

I'm scared, so I'll put it in quickly.


"Is it about to end today's hunt? It's getting dim. The night forest is dangerous. Let's round up early."


"Yeah. Sieg will be tired too. You don't have to overdo it from day one."


I'm back in the camp.

The black whirlwind is almost at the same time.

The bearer of the blue sky welcomed me.


Eat supper and lie down.

My night watchman is the last one.

Until then, let's sleep slowly.


Oops, before that, it's a skill swing.

The current skill point is 20.


"MP enhancement level 3" "MP consumption reduction level 1" "MP recovery speed enhancement level 1" "Fire magic level 3".

Candidates are around here.

All skill points consumed are 10.


After thinking a little, I got "MP consumption reduction level 1" and "fire magic level 3".


MP consumption reduction level 1 seems to be a one-third reduction.

In other words, if you want to activate magic that normally consumes about 9 MPs, you only need 6 if you have this skill.


Fire magic level 3 is "Fire Tornado".

Generate a tornado of fire of about 5m x 5m x 10m at the specified point.

The point you specify cannot be too far from yourself.


It's a tall attack.

It's going to be a forest fire if you mess up.

I have to think about where to use it.

Power is high, but MP consumption is large.

Range and power seem to be somewhat self-controllable.


With the skill of reducing MP consumption, I was able to afford MP.

Ideally, tomorrow we will continue to subdue the Goblins with the Fire Tornado.

Title: Dog hunting




I heard a rattling noise from above.

The area is still bright enough to be called night.


"Hey. How long have you been sleeping. The next night watchman will be in charge of us."


"Hmm ... 5 minutes left ..."


"Already! Get up early!"


When I was asleep, Yuna kicked me up.

You won't kick anything.

But I can't complain because I'm bad.


"Fah. I'm still sleepy ..."


I've been able to understand Yuna to some extent, so I've removed the polite language.

She has a lot of hard talk, but there are some pretty cute things about it.


"Be firm. I'm taking care of everyone's life."


That's true when you say so.

Put a yell.


When I went to the place to watch the night watch, there was one person from the blue and one from the whirlwind.


From Sora, she is a water wizard woman.

Her name is surely Liserotte.

From the whirlwind, he is the leader swordfighter man.

Well, all the whirlwinds are swordfighter men.


The four of us had a little chat while being wary of the monster attack.


The black whirlwind seems to be a party that has just become D rank.

He said that he was envious of the female members of Oga and Sou.


I asked Liserotte a question about water magic.

He answered politely.

Next to the water ball is the ice ball.

It is a spell that shoots an ice ball, and seems to have much higher attack performance than a water ball.

Next to the ice ball is ice rain.

It's like a spell that shoots ice balls one after another like rain.


As I chatted for a while, I heard a loud noise from a nearby bush.

There is a sign of a monster.

Looking at Yuna as to what to do, he stands up and holds a bow.

Others are also standing up and alert.

I also stand up in a hurry.


After a while, the sign of the monster went away.

I lifted my stance and sat down again.


"What is it now?"


Ask Liserotte, who seems to have a lot of experience.


"Probably Hound Wolf. I think I ran away because of the large number of people here."


"Hound Wolf has a high fighting ability. You don't have to hunt forcibly."


HM.

That's right.


After that, it was morning without any major events.

I eat breakfast.


Crazy rabbit meat.

It's quite delicious.


Besides, the preserved food I brought.

To be honest, it's not very delicious.


I don't eat goblin meat.

It has a strong odor and is not suitable for human consumption.


It's time to hunt after eating breakfast.

It seems that a black whirlwind will take care of the camp today.


First I encountered a flock of goblins.

Subdued without danger.

The Fire Tornado couldn't be used because it was a densely populated area.

disappointing.


Then I encountered a flock of crazy rabbits.

Hunt with the same strategy as yesterday.

Zeke attacks first and attracts the Crazy Rabbit.

In the meantime, we will defeat it.

This is easy.

Sieg seems to be tough.


After defeating the Crazy Rabbit, it's a break for a while.

Looking at Zeke's metal armor, it is partially dented.

It's a terrifying impact that doesn't suit a small body.


After the break, it's hunting again.

I encountered a flock of goblins in an open area with few trees.


"Oh, can I use the fire magic here?"


"That's right. Please throw in a big one!"


Yuna says this, but it's bad to shoot a big one in her tone.

I'm in trouble if there is a forest fire.

Being aware of the power and range, start chanting in your heart.

Hold both hands forward to activate magic.


"Fear Tornado!"


A big tornado of fire occurs with a roaring sound and attacks the goblins.

There is a feeling that nearly half of the MP has been consumed.

At the moment, I can't do much in a row.


Not a few people died from this blow.

The survivors are trying to escape, but they are slow to move, probably because of the heavy damage.


I will stop them with a fire arrow.

Yuna is also attacking with a bow.

Dread and Sieg wait on the spot and face the goblins heading towards us.


Oh, the level went up to 8.

After all range attack has different leveling efficiency.

Let's pretend to be a skill quickly.

MP enhancement level was set to 3.

MP recovery speed enhancement level 1 was taken.


"Hmm. It's pretty powerful. I'll do it."


“………… How about the remaining MP?”


"Assuming that the item room is preserved, it seems that we should have one more shot."


As the level went up and I got the skill, I had some margin.


"Oh, then if you have a chance, aim for it. It's easy."


The chance came soon.

I encountered a flock of goblins in an open area with few trees.


Hunting in the forest is really leveling efficient.

At this rate, it wouldn't be strange to reach level 9 tomorrow.

What skill should I take when I reach level 9?


It was a shame that I was alert while thinking about such things.


"It looks okay here. I will activate fire magic."


With that said, I start chanting in my heart.

Hold both hands forward and cast magic ...


"Wait!"

"No"

"…Stop!"


!! ??


I try to stop the activation in a hurry due to the voice of restraint from three people, but I can not make it in time

A tornado of fire occurs and attacks the goblins.


"Damn! Didn't you make it in time? Hey Takashi, defend yourself with the intention of dying. Don't give up."


"What on earth ...?"


I didn't know what it was.

However, I finally understand it when I see a group of crazy rabbits flooding from the front.


I couldn't see it because it was hidden behind the goblins, but there was a flock of crazy rabbits nearby.

The flock was involved in an attack on the goblins.


It seems that the number has decreased considerably with Fire Tornado.

But still, it seems like a desperate number to me, who only wears leather armor.

A crazy rabbit with a crazy and terrifying appearance is approaching.


I desperately rebuild my head, which is likely to be confused by fear.

Absolutely come back alive!

I decide so.


Cut the first one that approaches and throw it away.

Then cut the second and third animals.

However, the number is too large to judge with a sword.

It protects with a shield, but there is a shock that can not be imagined from a small body.


Some cling to their paws.

It's hard to move.


Yuna and others are desperately reducing the number, but the end of the battle cannot be seen.

Only those who jump on the face and neck are cut off and thrown away.

However, it neglected attention to others.

A strong impact runs on the abdomen.


If you fall to the ground, you're done.

I try to endure it just by kneeling.

There is a shock from the back this time.

Consciousness goes away for a moment.

Desperately regaining posture.


Suddenly notice.

It is completely surrounded.

I am shocked one after another.

I can't move properly.


Eventually I fell completely to the ground.


The sounds around me get farther away ...


…… I'm still ………….


…………I do not want die……………….


…… Miti ………… Yuna ………….


"Ice Rain!"


What……?

I no longer feel any shock to my body.

The sign of a crazy rabbit disappears.


"Please be firm!"


It's a woman's voice.

I've heard it somewhere.


Some liquid is poured into the mouth.

Consciousness becomes clear.


When I checked the surroundings, the Crazy Rabbit had already been annihilated.

There is a water wizard, Liserotte, in the immediate vicinity.


"I ... was it saved?"


"Yes, it was a dangerous place."


She answers so.

Yuna also came near.

She is breathing a lot.


"Really. What will happen at one point ... Well, I'm glad I lived safely."


“………… It was a good stickiness”


"Oh. With all this swordsmanship, fire magic and an item box. I can't let the guild leave it. The D rank promotion must be coming soon!"


There are also other members of Sieg, Dread, and the bearer of Sora.

I heard that the people of Aoi who happened to be nearby rushed to me.


It seems that the liquid that was drunk earlier was Liserotte's HP potion.

It's expensive.

It depends on the efficacy, but even if it is cheap, it costs a few gold coins.

I have to return it when I return to the city.


It was just a dim time, so we all went back to the camp.

Black whirlwind people welcome you.


Even though I recovered from the potion, my whole body hurts.

Probably full of bruises.

I decided to eat dinner and go to bed quickly.

It seems that my camp duty today is specially exempted.


Check the status before going to bed.

Before I knew it, the level was 9.

Probably the last crazy rabbit battle.

I was so absorbed in myself that I didn't notice it.


Think about what to give skill points 20 to.

I made a painful mistake today, but the efficiency of goblin hunting by range attack is undeniable.


You won't need to raise fire magic to level 4.

Even at present, it has sufficient firepower.

The greater the power, the greater the risk of forest fires, and the wider the range, the greater the chance of involving a crazy rabbit.

Level 3 is sufficient for hunting in the forest.


I'm really scared when I get involved with Crazy Rabbit.

From tomorrow, I'll check it properly and shoot, but it may happen.

It may be better to raise the swordsmanship, avoidance technique, and physical strengthening.

Do you also get shield art?

No, it's no good.

I don't think that even a slight increase in skill can prevent that crazy onslaught.


Ah.

Shouldn't we just take a look?

If you have 20 points, you can go up to level 2.

Even if you can't see it in the shadow like this time, you may notice the sign.

It seems to be useful even in normal hunting in the forest.

You can find prey efficiently and prevent surprise attacks.


Acquire a sign and raise it to level 2.

With the remaining 5 points, reduce MP consumption to level 2.


So that's it.

Detective is a useful skill.

A radius of about 10m around you.

If you concentrate, you can almost accurately grasp the signs of organisms within that range.

If it is farther than that, the accuracy will drop.

It's just barely up to about 20m.


If you are not focused, the effect seems to be extremely reduced.

It seems unlikely that we will be able to deal with a situation such as "a robbery while relaxing at home".

Well, I'm still living in an inn.

I want to have my own house someday.


MP consumption reduction level 2 is just halved.

You can shoot twice as much magic as at level 0.


In addition to increasing basic MP, he has acquired three MP-related skills.

If you seal the attack spell, even if you pack it to the limit in the item box, it will last for about a week.

It can even be said that the worry of MP is almost unnecessary.


Still suffering from a sore body, frightened by the horror of the crazy rabbit, and looking forward to hunting after tomorrow, he falls asleep.
