Defense Specialization and Guesswork
So days later, Maple and Sally were talking at the guild ho. No matter how hard they looked for ways to use those two items, they weren’t too far from where they started.
As they placed the items on the desk wondering what they should do with them, the other guild mbers who had been hunting for items today had just returned to the guild ho.
“Oh, you two are back as well. Hmm, what are those?”
Chro was the first to notice the two items on the desk.
“These are items that Maple has found, but we don’t know where to use them.”
“Things that Maple has found, huh…? So you have looked everywhere but don’t have the slightest idea where they could be used?”
“Right! I can’t dive as freely as you guys, so it’s hard for to be searching underwater for long periods of ti… So we haven’t found anything yet.”
“What are those items called?”
“Umm… this one is called ‘Lost Legacy’, and this shiny one is called ‘Heavenly Light’.”
“Talk about over-the-top nas… But if they are ant to be used sowhere, does that an that there’s an event related to them sowhere as well?”
“Does anything co to mind?”
“Hmm… I don’t think I have seen any place where such amazing-looking items could be used.”
“Then the items’ nas are the only hint we have at the mont. There were several references to items in the stone tablets I read, so there might be sothing about these items there.”
“Really!?”
“You an those tablets inscribed with that made-up language, Kanade…? Right, now that you know about these items, there might be so hints there as well.”
“Yeah, but maybe don’t get your hopes too high? And it could all lead you to so place so deep underwater that you’d have to fully upgrade your diving suits.”
“Maple Tree” was still collecting parts to that end, but it would take a little longer before they were done.
“Yeah, got it. Alright, tell us sothing that might be a hint.”
“Okay, so that light over there… It says it ca from the sky, but since you found it underwater, that place must have been so sort of ceiling or skylight before it was all subrged.”
“Ah, that’s why we found it underwater then?”
“Maybe. So if it used to be a ceiling or skylight in the past, then it would actually be a place high off the ground, right…?”
“That’s a good guess. And this ‘Lost Legacy’ seems to have sothing to do with the machines we sotis see in this Layer.”
“That sounds likely. Does this Layer go as deep underwater as the 3rd Layer?”
Like Chro said, the monitor and those light bullet launchers that Sally found in the dungeon she had captured could have been the sa. Other than that, there were so broken machines that were stuck on rocks and buildings.
“That’s right. And there’s so much I’ve been able to craft here as well…”
“Hmm, so a place where there are a lot of machines… Right?”
“Where could that be…? It has to be sowhere we won’t be able to reach until we upgrade our diving suits even further, right?”
“The stone tablets ntioned sothing about an old civilization, so it might be so place quite deep underwater.”
“If it’s so kind of lost civilization, then the item’s na would make a lot of sense. We might not be too far off the mark here.”
“Let’s look for more parts while we search for this old civilization as well then!”
“W-We’ll do our best…!”
“Thanks, everyone! We’ll definitely find sothing amazing!”
“It sounds a bit scary when you say it, Maple…”
“Right.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Looking back on the things she had been bringing to the table so far, there were many things that fell under the definition of “amazing”. Since Maple was their ally, they were certainly glad that she was getting stronger, but the items themselves were nothing but outrageous to everyone else.
As Chro, Iz, and Kasumi each murmured their reaction, the unaware Maple seed to have been very motivated after finally having gotten a hint towards her search.
