A Certain Middle-aged Man’s VRMMO Activity Log

After seeing off the dragons heading to the Fairy Castle, I head out walking.

M,my body is really weak

With the influence of the triple bad statuses I acquired I cant run, and walking is kind of tough. The cause is the after effects that come from firing off , but its quite tough. The sensation of when I had to rehabilitate because of a bone fracture has been revived.

You can technicslly say that this is better than that previously, but

If the fire power of the Fairies in the past was like this, then it looks like its true that you will become like ash and be lost. It feels like an unbelievable power should have some hidden effects to keep you from re-using it. Just like the warning, isnt a nice Skill to re-fire.

Honestly, Im prepared to use my last resort and shoot so that I return to town with a death penalty. In reality, right now just moving is hard, so its not a situation where I can take withdrawal measures. It truly was a sacrifice. I parted with a precious partner for ever.

I didnt want to rely on it but pikarsha! Wont you come over-?

It will stand out and all, but honestly, I dont know how many hours it will take for me to walk to the inn at this plodding rate. Im going to need help to reach the inn I stayed at last night; I feel like a hospital patient.

Pyui~, P,pyui!?

The pikarsha came when I called it; I am truly thankful right now. Using my special privileges has already put me in a bad mood, but lets set that aside for now. Unable to bear watching me move sluggishly over to it, the pikarsha seized me with its beak and put me on its back.

Sorry, but my bodies a little ragged first, could you take me towards the clothing store?

Making a single cry of pyui, the pikarsha broke out running. From now on, Im seriously going to want an existence that will let me ride it or carry things. Pikarsha is one that belongs to the Fairy Country so its not something you should originally be able to rely on; its not an existence to depend on. Ive heard that suitably large animal-type fairies will let their owners ride on their backs but unfortunately that is not something I can hope for. Im certain that Zweis fairy is a large wolf; if its that then it looks like you could ride on its back; Im jealous.

Pyui

And with that, while I was thinking about such things it seems weve reached the clothing store. The people at the clothing store saw the pikarsha and were startled, wondering whatever was happining; within that situation, I, who sluggishly descended, had a pretty bad appearance, I guess. I somehow got off the pikarsha and questioned the clothing stores owner.

Pardon me, but Id like some sort of outerwear that will completely hide my body but is there any in stock?

I have only one goal; to hide this full-body Dragonscale Light Armor set. This splendid blue armor stands out quite a bit, so in other words Id like some outerwear in place of a cloak to wear to hide it.

Is that so; is this sort of thing to your liking?

The shopkeeper gathered together a lot of different color cloaks to show me with a flustered look. Incidentally, there were mantles with a different style from all the others caught my eye.

Shopkeeper, whats this mantle?

If I think somethings weird, I should ask an expert if ones available.

Aa, about that one? There are slits in that one to make it easier for a bow user to wield his bow, so you dont have to take it off to be able to have both hands out in front, since you, dear customer, also use a bow?

At that question, certainly I also use a bow and when I answered such, Then I will recommend this mantle, the clothing store shopkeeper replied. The price of cheap goods begins at 3,000Glo, while expensive items exceed 100,000Glo.

What is with the difference in prices?

Its most likely magic enhancement, or durability difference I tentatively think about that kind of thing, but an amateurs opinion isnt good. I havent been able to break into equipment manufacturing at all, so its a sore point that I dont really know much about this type of thing.

The durability, some have permanent protection magic, and the most expensive one has even been enhanced with a self-repair ability thats hard to mass-produce.

Hou, self-repair!? Now that Ive fallen into a situation where I dont want to lose my mantle, a self-repair enhancement is truly very welcome. If thats the case, I point my finger at the most expensive, emerald coloured mantle displayed within the shop designated at the high price of 180,000Glo

If thats so, then I would like this.

When I said so, the clothing stores shopkeeper had a blank face, then

D,dear customer, certainly that is the most prized good displayed within this entire store, but thats something we displayed for fun thinking that no one would pay that much for a mantle. If you have 180,000Glo, its possible to put together a full set of suitable armor; are you really okay with this!?

Thats to be expected, naa. No matter how splendid a mantle is said to be, gathering together a full set of leather or light armor is far stronger. But me right now is the exception of all exceptions.

I dont care; right now the armor I have is exceedingly superior, so Im in the position of needing to get a proper mantle.

I said that kind of half-truth. Certainly my armor is superior because its Dragonscale, but as long as the mantle will cover the Dragonscale Armor, I dont care what it is. And it just so happens that theres a good item, thats all that happened.

If thats the case, then

With that, the clothing stores shopkeeper took down the displayed mantle and handed it to me. On my side I handed over 180,000Glo to conclude the deal and immediately equipped the mantle. Looking at myself in the mirror, I was satisfied to confirm that it completely covered the Dragonscale Armor.

N, it gives a good feeling; Ive had a great shopping experience.

I said to the clothing store shopkeeper and bowed my head.

No, I as well had a great business transaction made; if its possible in the future, please come to us again.

The clothing store shopkeeper also bowed his head.

At that time, please take care of me.

Its a pity, but I dont think Ill have a chance to come back a second time, though this is just polite socialization. Once again I got on the pikarshas back with a pu-poi- and headed to the inn. With my body in this condition, all sorts of things are tough, and right now its highly likely that the Dragon-samas are talking with her, so I intend to go over to the Queens place tomorrow.

Afterwards, the innkeeper was somewhat reluctant, but I will only stay one night since I intend to appear at the Fairy Castle tomorrow, so please; somehow I was able to rent a room. Now Im resting, so even if its just a little, my bad statuses will reduce.

A/n:Tomorrow its the conversation with the Queen. Pikarshas a good child.
