Moto Sekai Ichi'i no Sub-chara Ikusei Nikki Chapter 11: Kinkaku hame tarou

Chapter 11: Kinkaku ha tarou

“Ro-Rook Archery……! ”

Silvia was amazed after seeing her status.

Her eyes were still swollen and red from the crying. She said that while still sobbing like a crying puppy. I wish she wouldn’t worry that much about being unreasonable, or rather, I feel grateful.

……Well then. If my prediction is correct, this is Silvia we’re talking about, who values chivalry. I bet she will say sothing like:

“――Second-dono. I truly admire you for keeping a promise made to as your companion, going as far as crushing your own bones for it. I am very proud to be by your side. Allow to pledge my life to serve under you.”

See? I told you.

Then I just told her what I had told her before.

“Don’t worry. Just shut up and follow .”

Silvia locked her eyes with mine.

Imdiately after that, she laughed with a “hahaha”.

“Second-dono, do you think I’ll just shut up because you say it? What a troubleso person.”

Ha, haha. I laughed.

Hahahaha, haha, ha……

…………Well, wasn’t that unexpected?

After that.

As we pulled ourselves together and headed further inside the Reus dungeon, I noticed a slight change in Silvia.

Her outwardly feel as a 「Useless Knight」hasn’t changed at all, but in the monts when I’m about to be attacked by a monster, she makes a threatening face and obliterates that monster with using 《Rook Archery》. After having to see that angry face for a while, I ended up preaching to her about it.

Anyway, Silvia now really gives off the vibe of 「Second’s Knight」, being my knight.. She says it is her job to protect . Hmm, is this so kind of pretend play? But, aren’t you too old to be playing pretend at 17……?

And then, she finally said “Second-dono, please let take the front.” as if to protect .

……Makes wonder. Isn’t this quite the hassle?

Well, let’s not mind it too much. The only thing left is the boss.

“This is the ho of the Fla Wolf.”

Reus dungeon’s boss, the Fla Wolf. It is a powerful monster in the shape of a large wolf, wearing flas as if coating it. Thanks to that fire barrier, the only damage it receives is from piercing attacks. Although my mory from Mobius is vague, I rember all the interdiate players who ca visit the Reus dungeon rated this fight as “A pain in the butt”.

However, there is one thing I rember perfectly. And that is――

“Alright, let’s entrap it and kill it.”

“Yes? ”

But at a certain point, that evaluation turned into “ti sink-small fry”.

The changing factor was a trap approach. Once that strategy was discovered, the formidable Fla Wolf turned into more of a bullied child.

“Ready? First, I’ll attack it with Bishop. Since the Fla Wolf will target and run towards , I’ll knock it back with Gold. At that point, Silvia will attack it with Bishop. Then, the Fla Wolf will target you Silvia, and when he runs up to you, you knock it back with Gold. The rest is rinse and repeat.”

This is an easy to do strategy to defeat the Fla Wolf, its na is 『Kinkaku ha tarou』. This is a famous killing technique that can be done by two or more people.

Using《Bishop Archery》 you can penetrate the fla barrier and do enough damage, and if it’s of the 12 rank or higher, that amount of damage will certainly pull the Fla Wolf to you. And if the 《Gold Archery》is of the rank 9 at least, the cooldown tir will be enough for this strategy to be accomplished by two players. And above all, the attack pattern of the Fla Wolf is simple and lacks ranged attacks. Therefore, this evil entrapping technique was easily established.

“Wa-wait. Would it really be that easy? ”

“It’s fine, if not, this is at least the safest. The key point is to wait until the last possible mont before using Bishop. This is in order to adjust the cooldown tir. All we need to do is stretch the ti in order to gain the 10 seconds needed to reuse Gold.”

“I s-see……”

“Okay, let’s go.”

I leisurely went to the place where the boss was at. Silvia was a bit nervous…… but at that mont, her expression just turned into a “pokan face”. ( O_O )

“Awooooooo! ”

Noticing , the Fla Wolf gave a howl and afterwards it rushed towards .

“He-here it cos!? ”

“Alright. Okay, after I knock it back and the wolf cos at again, hit it with Bishop at the last second.”

While talking to Silvia, I shoot an arrow with 《Bishop Archery》 at the Fla Wolf. The arrow, enveloped in a red-blackish aura, pierced the Fla Wolf, but it took it like it wasn’t a big deal.

“It’s n-not working!? ”

Silvia was surprised. Well, that is obvious, this is a boss. You can’t take it down with a single skill. But he is properly receiving damage.

“You shoot the Gold when it is around in this position.”

When the Fla Wolf was around 2 ters away from , I shot it with 《Gold Archery》. At that mont, the arrow, covered in a golden aura,hit it with a dazzling effect and the Fla Wolf was knocked about five ters back. This is its knockback effect.

“It’ll be coming at again soon. Get ready to shoot Bishop right in front of .”

“Ye-yeah…… I know! ”

Silvia was still filled with tension.

After the Fla Wolf restored its posture, it rushed at again without paying attention to anything else.

“Kyaun! ”

Silvia’s arrow coated in 《Bishop Archery》 pierced the Fla Wolf when it was around 3 ters ahead of .

The Fla Wolf was like “You hurt !? “, and then it changed targets and rushed towards Silvia, glaring at her as it approached. This monster surely is stupid.

“Let it get very close to you.”

After giving her instructions, Silvia knocked off the Fla Wolf using 《Gold Archery》. Silvia wore a serious expression the entire ti, and nodded at my instructions.

After that, Silvia and I repeated it about 15 tis.

Saying stuff like “This sure feels easy” or “Wanna eat dinner together later tonight? ” I tried to make small talk.

And after the fifth round, Silvia started to respond to my questions.

Seems like we’re going to eat dinner in that bar again.

Then, at the 16th round.

“Se, se……Senden (advertisent)” “Denpun (Starch)” “Purin! ” “Rihitenshutain (Liechtenstein)” “What is that?” “The na of a country” “……Well, its fine, I, Inkan (seal)” “Kaikan (pleasant feeling)” “Ka, ka, ka, kazan (Volcano)” “Zakkubaran (Frankness)” “Ra——-imugi pan (Rye bread)” “Pattern” “……What was that, ta? a? ”

“A” “A……”

We we’re killing ti playing Shiritori when the Fla Wolf died.

“……Damn, it’s a miss.”

I said after looking at the item dropped in the place where the Fla Wolf died.

“Hmm? ”

Silvia also noticed and ca closer.

“T-this is!? ”

I wonder why she is so surprised. It’s just so 『Fla Wolf Fur』.

“Isn’t it Fla Wolf fur!? This is a miss!? ”

“Eh, yeah, why do you ask?”

“I-idiot, don’t say stupid things! Isn’t this a luxury item that can be sold to a rchant for 1 million CL!? ”

“A million–!? ”

Way higher than I thought! No, isn’t it too expensive!?

The best item from the Reus dungeon is the 『Bow of the Blazing Wolf』 and that goes from 800,000 to 900,000 CL at most. 50,000 would’ve been a good enough price for the fur.

To think it would be twenty tis its price. Wait a minute……

Considering that, how much would a rare drop from an Upper dungeon go for?

……I can’t stop grinning.

“Alright, let’s bring it back.”

“Umu. Isn’t that obvious?”

Chuckling to myself, I placed the Fla Wolf fur inside my inventory, and afterwards we left the Reus dungeon.

After defeating the boss, we took the shortest route to the exit. 「How to reduce travel ti」is a very important aspect for those who want to play an MMORPG to perfection. In that facet, Mobius was quite terrible. Its crappy magic system didn’t allow you to learn instant movent magic unless you were quite advanced. The interdiate and lower players are stuck traveling in horses or flying dragons to get where you need to go. Therefore, I feel very grateful that I knew the existence of this dungeon, since it was quite close. Feels like the grace of getting the occasional sweet al in prison where everything is tasteless.

“Alright, should we go for a drink?”

“Okay. Exactly what I wanted.”

It was dusk outside. We were inside the dungeon almost the whole day.

Along with Silvia, we both went back.

When I said “Next ti, let’s aim to clear it multiple tis”, Silvia answered with a ” How many?” Then I said “Let’s try for at least three clears in a day” and she just “Hahaha, Idiot” answered with a dry laugh.

After that, we talked about our hobbies. I heard about her family, and we laugh at so silly things on our way back to the capital.

Just a trifling conversation about our everyday life. But it was relaxing and fun.

……I wonder what this is?

I feel so happy that I could barely think about my previous life.

My life in this other world as my alt character is filled with fun, and I even got a friend nad Silvia.

And you can even tell that, as we’ve trained together, we’ve grown closer.

In this world――I’ll beca the world’s rank one.
