Chapter 135: Healing lake release battle


I let Lily and Ion take a break and talk to the girls.

"So why is the chairman here?"

"Y, You've got the wrong person"

"You almost shouted out my real name, isn't it"

"U...se...no...emm"

I pity her if she doesn't know my avatar name.

"Here I call myself Takuto"

"I see. I'm Chiffon"

"...Do you like cake?"

"I, It's different!? Ah, I like it, but I only name myself so because it's cute!"

Chiffon, the chairman, desperately tried to explain.

"Why not Princess?"

"Of course not! If you name me that, I'm a painful child!? Why do you have to say the same thing as Miranda..."

"Miranda?"

Who's Miranda?

"She's the vice chairman"

Ah, Shiina-san...was she doing that too?

"Teach...cant you?"

"...Yeah. I can't say that the chairman is actually a gamer"

I think it's too much of a concern, but it's hard to say. Tristan speaks up there.

"You two know each other in real life, don't you?"

"Yes. We met for the first time today"

"I've never met her before either. I mean, you guys were the first people I met at the event"

"She saved me from that wolf that attacked me"

Hee, I knew you were a good guy, Tristan. So I was curious about something.

"What happened to the Round Table members?"

"The ones who were warned by the admins quit the game. I've been playing as a solo mercenary in this game"

Mercenary play? What the hell is that?

"Mercenary play is like being a helper. It's a way to be hired by weak people for money. The spearman who confronted you when he was with Arthur was also playing mercenary"

Yeah, I remember that one. He was the strongest of them all. I'm sure his skills are suited for that kind of play.

"Chiffon and Miranda, right? Are you two playing the game by yourselves?"

"Yes. We're looking for a party that suits us both. It's not easy to find one. This time, the event doesn't seem to be that much focused on party fights, so we took on the challenge together, but I didn't expect to eat an apple and return to death"

I guess. But there were those who had expected it.

"After all, this apple is a trap, isn't it?"

"Yes. The forest around here is poisoned and we're currently searching for a place that isn't poisoned"

"...Do you know where there is no poison?"

"I have an elf named Setia"

Setia looked with a triumphant look.

"I see. That makes sense. I've been looking for a safe place too, but I haven't found one. I mean, you can't find it even though you've searched with horses and elves and haven't found it"

Do you believe so? I don't feel like setting up such a place near me on purpose. If you find it easily, you might think it's boring.

"Here's a suggestion, why don't we form a party? I have the eagle-eye skill that can help you in your search"

Oh. I've never heard of that skill either. Apparently it's a skill that allows you to see far away.

"I'm fine. Lily and Ion are down"

"Eh!? Can I join you?"

"? I don't mind, ah. Are you okay with horses?"

"I'll ride. I've been playing games with horses for a long time"

Hee. Now, I'll return Lily and Ion and lend them Liqueur. Let's see how good they are.

Yeah...I totally lost...the level was different. To be more specific, she's controlling him without reins. How is she doing it? It's like she's signaling with her feet, but I can't tell.

"This boy...is a good boy. I don't think I've ever had a horse that was so comfortable to ride"

"I'm glad to hear that"

Liqueur is completely attached. Come back! I'm your master!

"Takuto-kun, will you give me this child?"

"No!"

Liqueur is the hope of Pegasus. Resolutely prevent!

I'm moving on with Setia and Darley. That's right, I can't share a ride with two female players.

And we're moving. Wolfmen attacked us several times, but I used Liqueur and Darley's speed to get through. This was a decision I made with Tristan.

We decided that we could get points for fighting, but it would be pointless if we died from lack of hunger.

After another hour, we learned that it was the right decision. When my satiety level entered the red zone, Setia shouted.

"!! Takuto-san! I've found it! It's a poison free zone!"

"That's great! Which way?"

"That way!"

We headed in the direction that Setia pointed. We arrived at a beautiful lake.

"It looks like a winner"

"Yes. It's not like this beautiful lake is poisonous"

Tristan stopped me when I started to head towards it.

"Wait. They don't usually let you use these places. There will be boss-class monsters"

"Is that how it works?"

"That's how it works. Setia, there is no poison around here, right?"

"Yes"

"You can probably eat an apple or something like that. Let's recover our satiety level and then decide on the organization and strategy before we go for it"

"I, I agree! That's definitely the way to go"

Yeah. That sounds like a good idea. She's a veteran. And I realized again that I'm rather careless.

That's why we procure apples. The reason for this is that Tristan is good at getting apples with her bow, but we can't afford to waste any arrows. Chiffon can't do that in the first place.

That's why I'm in charge. I asked Konoha and Hiyori to drop them. I appraised them.

Apple: Rarity 1 Ingredient Item Quality E

Very high in nutrients and good for your health. The skin is also nutritious.

Now that it's safe, we'll eat it together.

I restore the fullness level and return Liqueur and Darley.

"Thank you. I'm sure I'll ask you again, so get some rest"

""Hihiiii""

Then we have a strategy meeting, but since we don't know the enemy, there's no way to plan a strategy. For now, I'll just keep an eye out for the boss and get closer so I can put up a wall spell at any time.

As I get closer, a rock in the middle of the lake moves toward me. I use my identification skill, but I can't identify it. What's going on?

Anyway, I keep my distance and I prepare a wall spell.

As the rock approached the land, red feet appeared from underneath. At that moment, my identification skill caught the identity of the enemy.

Rock Hermit Crab?

? ? ?

It's a hermit crab. But it's a hermit crab with a rock shell. I mean, it's bigger than a big hermit crab!?

The eyes of the rock hermit crab glow. Something's coming!

"Earth Wall!"

The rock hermit crab is about to send countless rocks flying.

The Earth Wall arrived just in time. If I hadn't been prepared, I would have died...

"That was close..."

"'Yes...it was a close call. If we hadn't prepared in advance, we wouldn't have made it..."

But it seems we still can't rest easy.

"I, Is it my imagination? I feel like this wall has been cut down since a while ago..."

It's probably going to break down sooner or later if it's pelted with rocks. It can be reattached, but it's going to be a dead end sooner or later.

Let's call out a trump card to overturn this situation!

"I'm calling for the wall. Can you attack?"

"I understand. I'll do it"

I get permission from Tristan-san and call.

"Come on! Kurogane! Luna!"

The chairman and Tristan were surprised by the appearance of Kurogane and Luna.

"C, Cute!"

"This is...a golem!?"

Ah, I don't know. Well, that's not the point.

"Kurogane! Grappling battle! Luna, attack with magic"

Kurogane advances to the rock hermit crab under my direction. Naturally, it paid attention to the approaching Kurogane. After confirming that, Tristan-san moves sideways and shoots a bow skill.

"Strike Shot!"

It hits, but I can hear Tristan's voice.

"Not good! The damage isn't as good as it should be!"

It's as hard as it looks...then how about magic? The magic of Setia and Luna explodes.

"!!"

"Leaf Cutter!"

The two leaf cutters hit. How is it"

"Not good...magic isn't working either..."

Seriously...I tried all the attributes, but no luck. The only thing left is Kuroganes attack, but of course it doesn't work. On the contrary, this Rock Hermit Crab was harder than Kurogane and had a higher attack power and speed than Kurogane.

This is terrible...for the time being, I let Kurogane get some distance and I thought the Rock Hermit Crab would follow up, but it didn't. But as soon as I moved away, it started sending rocks at me again. It's a troublesome enemy.

"What do we do? There is no way to do something as it is"

"I wish I had some kind of magic that would work"

Puyosuke can't be used either, because if the rocks were magic, he'd die instantly. So we'll have to go back to the basics.

I'm a professional hermit crab hunter. I know all the effective magic and strategies.

"I probably know a magic that works. It's going to be an endurance battle, is that okay?"

"I'm not complaining if you can beat it"

"Me neither"

Then let's do it.

"Poison!"

When I use the wood magic Poison, the Rock Hermit Crab becomes poisonous. We'll see what happens.

"Setia, Wood Wall, please. Maybe the Wood Wall is sturdier"

"Yes!"

Setia builds a wood wall and I heal Kurogane. Then I debuff and Luna dances and buffs.

When the Poison wears off, Setia will apply it again. When the wooden wall breaks, Kurogane goes on the defensive and I repeat recovery, wall, poison.

I wondered what the Rock Hermit Crab would do...I thought it would attack, but it didn't show any signs of it.

In the end, we stayed on the defensive and kept poisoning it to win.

The enemy who doesn't have guts, but keeps to his own tactics, was a troublesome enemy.

I'm not sure how to explain how we defeated it, but we did it anyway, so that's good. So, let's level up.

The level of Intermediate Summoner has increased. The number of summoned beasts that can become companions has increased by one

The level of Intermediate Summoner has increased. You gained 1pt of skill points

This left me with 17 skill points and 8 summoned beasts to join.

It looks like the chairman and Tristan-san have also leveled up. The Rock Hermit Crab was going to be dismantled by me.

"It's almost as if you defeated it yourself, Takuto-kun"

I was told that. Well, I'll take your word for it. Here are the results of the dismantling.

Hermit Crab: Rarity 4 Ingredient Item Quality E

An edible hermit crab. It tastes similar to shrimp.

Why? I don't know why I got so many regular hermit crabs. The Big Hermit Crab was a pair of scissors...and an earth-based stone! It's a magic stone summoning case. I can't do it here, though.

Then the info comes on.

The base area Healing Lake has been released

You have earned 5 skill points

You have earned the event-only title Liberator of the Base Area

The dark magic level has reached 20. You have acquired the Dark Magic Charmand Dark Knight

Setia's tree magic level has reached 5. You have acquired the tree magic Wood Bless and Blossom Storm

Oh. I got a lot of stuff. Now I have 22 skill points left.

Also, I have acquired new dark magic and Setia has acquired new tree magic.

The problem is...there is. Charm...I'm guessing that's the magic that makes you fascinated.

What's the Dark Knight? Dark Knight? I'll have to use it to find out.

Setia's tree magic wood bless means blessing, not breath, I guess. I'll have to use it to see the actual effect.

Blossom Storm seems to be an offensive magic. Blossom is a flower that blooms on a tree. Cherry blossoms are famous.

Storm is a storm. So it's a storm of tree flowers. I'm really looking forward to it.

Now, let's take a look at the event-specific title.

Title Liberator of the Base Area

Effect: Special attack against base area bosses, special attack against event raid bosses

This title is given to the person who defeats the base area boss in the Old Island event.

The other two are very excited.

"That's a lot of skill points! And it's an event-only title!"

"Yes! Now I can get the skills I want!"

"Eh? Isn't that normal?"

When I said that, the air was cold.

"I knew you were on the front lines of the attack, but this is crazy"

"No wonder you're used to fighting"

"Don't say that. I've never seen a Rock Hermit Crab"

I've fought the Big Hermit Crab before, though.

"I'm talking about big enemies!"

Chiffon was furious with me. I'm just enjoying a normal adventure...

Author note:

Chiffon couldn't do anything about it, but you get the idea.

The base area is simply a place where you can log out. It's a system exclusive to this event. I'll write a detailed explanation tomorrow.
