Chapter 329
Defense Specialization and Relaxation
The 8th event had ended, and Maple Tree had accomplished their goal . Now they just had to decide how they would use their dals .
As Kaeda and Risa walked on their way ho after school, they talked about this .
“Did you decide on what skill you want, Kaede?”
“Not yet . I think I’ll think about it until it’s close to the deadline . ”
“Just like everyone else, then . ”
“What about you, Risa?”
“Well, the next event won’t be for a while . And there isn’t any skill that I really want right now . ”
Like Risa said, the event had only just finished . There was no need to strengthen yourself in a rush . The seventh layer was very big, and it would take a while for the eighth layer to be implented . So she had had no particular goal in front of her .
“We can just take it easy again!”
“I guess . We can prepare by raising our levels and looking for skills . ”
Risa said . And then Kaede’s face suddenly lit up as if she just had an idea .
“...I know! If we’re going to look for skills, why don’t we go through all the previous layers? There are plenty of places we haven’t gone to yet!”
“That’s true . The layers in this ga are so big . After all, you acquired ‘Absolute Defense’ on the first layer . ”
Risa agreed that it wasn’t a bad idea to go to all the places they hadn’t been able to before . Kaede was living proof that there were a lot of hidden secrets . However, Kaede’s expression made it pretty clear that searching for skills was not her main objective .
“Hehe . Yeah . I suppose we can search for skills on the way while we sightsee . ”
“Ahaha! You can tell?”
“I guess? It’s fine . Let’s look for so nice spots . Who needs a plan, right?”
“Yes! Let’s look for unexplored territory!”
If fighting was one way to have fun, walking around the world was another way .
And since they had just finished an event with vicious battles, they decided to walk leisurely through the past layers .
“Oh, but we won’t go to the sixth layer!”
“Yes...thank you... Well, see you in the ga then . ”
“Yes!”
They waved at each other as they went their separate ways . Risa couldn’t help but smile as she saw Maple running on light feet, obviously excited .
As Risa continued her walk ho, she thought about all their past adventures .
Kaede seed to be having much more fun than before . This made her more happy than anything, but she also worried about just how long this would last .
“...We have to enjoy the present! She’s never beco so absorbed in anything to this degree before . ”
She was enjoying it now . Risa herself was enjoying it . That’s all that mattered . With this conclusion, Risa rushed ho in order to boot up the ga .
After she arrived, she quickly got changed and logged into the ga . Here, Sally waited for Maple to arrive .
“Sorry! Did you wait long?”
“No, I just ca . So, you really think we don’t need to plan anything?”
She asked again . Maple grinned and repeated that she wanted to walk around leisurely without any plans .
“Alright, let’s go then . There’s no real need to prepare, as the monsters will be so weak . ”
“Yes, let’s go!”
Maple and Sally teleported to the first layer and looked at the town . Compared to when the ga first started, a lot of new areas had been added . This ant the people in the town were more spread out, so there were fewer than before . But it was still a lively place .
“It’s been a while . ”
“It’s hard not to get caught up in exploring and conquering the new layers and doing little else . ”
“Where should we go?”
“Anywhere is fine . Just go where you want, Maple . ”
“Then we’ll start with the town!”
“Okay!”
And so the two of them walked around the town . They had walked around this town quite a bit before, but they could see now that there were changes with the players and buildings .
For instance, there hadn’t been any player stores before . As the newest and oldest floors tended to have the most people, there was demand for them here .
“Now that I think about it, you don’t see many players here with beginner equipnt . ”
“Well, considering how much variety they have in clothes and equipnt now, you’re a lot freer when it cos to appearance and functionality . ”
“That’s true . ”
“There are so things you can only experience when the ga is new . ”
“I see . ”
Maple and Sally went into all the stores that were unfamiliar . Accessories, clothes, furniture for those who joined guilds . The variety here easily matched that of the seventh layer .
“Woah! That’s amazing!”
“You’re limited in what you can make unless your skill level is high . I wonder if the people who have stores here are like Izu, who fight on the frontlines?”
“Well, it’s fun to buy fancy things!”
