Chapter 7: Pervert Learns the Cost of Efficiency
After I told the three people about my current predicant with too many items and no ans to start a fire so that I could get rid of starvation’s effect, they agreed to help , also accepting the portion of the at I willing to offer them.
「Umm…… “Fireball”!!!」
「「Ooh.」」
Lina casts the spell and the mont it hits the branches we gathered around to start the fire, it changes them into a nice looking bonfire.
Judging from their reactions and behavior, they must have been newbies at this ga, just like .
「Oh, you can cook things in batches, huh……? This ga sure is convenient……」
「Umm, Sanraku… -san……?」
「Just Sanraku is fine. After all, I am a ShanFro newbie, just like you guys. So we’re pretty much on an equal footing here.」
「Oh, really? I would have never been able to guess that, judging by your looks alone? Sanraku, why do you look like that……?」
Lina seed to be exhausted after casting the “Fireball” spell, so in the anti I proposed to cook her batch of at for her.
「In this ga, you can sell your starting equipnt as soon as the starting screen.」
「Hm? Is that so!?」
「That is why I sold basically everything else except for my weapons and headgear.」
「I see, but since the city is so close-by, couldn’t you just buy and sell your equipnt there?」
The thief girl Kaho asked that question, which made understand that the initial spawn location must have also been randomized. When I told everyone where I was forced to start, they all looked at sympathetically.
「That’s right…… What was that thing right there?」
「You an Vorpal Bunny?」
「Yeah, yeah, is that Vorpal Bunny thing crazy strong or what?」
「Hmm, let’s see……」
I might tell them what I know, but will they be able to do anything with that knowledge?
Ultimately I decided to tell Soma, the boy who asked that question, that speed was crucial in dealing with Vorpal Bunny.
「If you aim at its neck fast enough, every single attack is supposed to be a critical hit, but it might be hard to hit a moving target with precision like that.
「F, fast……」
「It’s a monster that initially seems hard, but is rather easy once you get used to dealing with it.」
「Just out of curiosity: what level are you, Sanraku?」
「Level twelve. But the amount of EXP I’m getting here is starting to dwindle a little bit, so I was thinking it might be good for to find a new location to grind soon.」
「Ah, hunting like that…… But! It’s been only a day since we started playing, so we still have so much possibilities to explore here!」
I think it would be a good idea to let these girls know that I’m not your typical player when it cos to grinding and stuff like that.
After all, the only thing that separates us is basically play ti. It would be a different story if we started at around the sa ti, but in gas like that overall play ti was making all the difference.
「I went on a little break, and after that I went to grind into the forest for about seven hours or so. Thanks to that my inventory got so full and I was about to starve to death……」
「Aah, so that’s why you needed so ans to start a fire.」
「That’s right. And you really saved out there…… For that, thank you very much.」
When it cos to at, the at of the Vorpal Bunny seed to be the one that was the best when cooked, and so I decided to distribute that one amongst our small group of people.
「Hmh……!? It looks so good but it tastes so bland!?」
In most gas, even though you could eat many different things their taste would generally be pretty much the sa (mostly tasting like pork, but there were so exceptions).
But much like in the real world, if you ate too much inside of the ga you would be overco with the urge to not want to do anything at all and just sleep, and in so cases to log out and eat so real food…… Good job, ga. Good job.
「Ahh, now I want to eat so real at.」
「……? If that’s what you want to do, then why don’t you just do it?」
「Nah, before I do that I want to get so more things done in this ga.」
As I said that, the three of them nodded their heads in understanding.
I could log out anywhere and anyti I wanted, but in reality the safest thing to do would be to log out in a town or a safe zone.
For example, when I previously logged out to have a little break, after I ca back, the tree that I was sitting on was almost broken in half and full of scratch marks. If I stayed there longer, I could have turned into nothing more than Goblin or Vorpal Bunny food.
So I wanted to avoid doing that, so that I wouldn’t have to brand this ga as a sh*tty ga as well.
「Oh, that’s right. I know this may sound stupid, but can I ask you so questions?」
Since they were to town before, I asked them about the shops that were located there, so that I could know where to best buy certain things. I also decided on making it a habit to scout out any new town that I would venture into as the first thing on my priority list.
Since the three of them were on a gathering quest in the forest, we decided to go our separate ways from this point forward, with going to the town which was the opposite of the direction they were going, to “Secandill”.
The main the of this work is: “overcoming the boundaries of the system with personal knowledge”.
Even when we have Person A and Person B, with their level, equipnt, skills and ga ti being roughly the sa, the one who has more knowledge about VR gas in general is going to have the huge edge.
And utilizing that knowledge can give you a trendous boost when it cos to leveling up quickly, assembling your equipnt or amassing a large sum of money…… That’s just how it is.
