Something that only they are capable of doing, that cannot be replicated by the members of any other race. Could this be the reason why Dwarves primarily use hammers, clubs, mallets and other types of two-handed weaponry? I feel that now that I have witnessed her in action, I understand that a little bit better.
Unfortunately, while that attack did ended up knocking the Collagen Corals back, it failed to kill them, so I had to use another Fire Storm in order to keep damaging them, but I was not feeling bad about it, because Sherry managed to fulfill the goal that she set up for herself.
「Did you see that, master?! I did it! Thank to what you have shown me, I was able to properly maintain the optimal strength of the first hit and carry it over all the way to the second one! I did it!」
「Yes, you did. Great job, Sherry.」
「Thank you very much!」
「That was a magnificent strike, Sherry. I was amazed at how far you send these Collagen Corals flying.」
「To be honest, I was amazed by that as well. Thank you very much for your assistance and going along with my selfish wishes as well, Miss Roxanne.」
「Do not mention it.」
While Roxanne and I were complimenting Sherry, I used the fourth and then fifth Fire Storm to make the sure that all four of the Collagen Corals will fall down without fail. And after defeating the monsters, I had some thought occur to me while I was looking at how happy Sherry was about executing her move properly. Dwarves. . . . . . . their great strength. . . . . . . talent. . . . . . . . . . . something that only they can do. . . . . . . something that can only be done in Labyrinths. . . . . . . . . . . hammers and two-handed weapons as their traditional weaponry . . . . . . .
Could it be? Is it possible that I might be onto something with this line of reasoning? In order to confirm my suspicions, I opened the Party Job Settings while my heart began to beat noticeably louder, and scrolled all the way to Sherry and the list of her available Jobs:
Villager Lv.9, Explorer Lv.10, Herbalist Lv.1, Warrior Lv.1, Merchant Lv. 1, Shrine Maiden Lv.1, Swordsman Lv.1, Monk Lv.1, Farmer Lv.1, Master Smith Lv.1
Finally, there it is! Sherry has obtained the Master Smith Job! She said that she was one of the strongest people in her entire village, so in terms of pure brute strength, she should definitely have more than enough of it to be “talented” enough to explore the Labyrinths ( I also noticed that she unlocked the Farmer’s Job, most likely due to her picking up herbs from the garden when she was preparing dinner yesterday), so the last thing that was needed for her to become a Master Smith and the thing that she was missing, the very last condition that she failed to fulfill for so long must have been this: to hit multiple targets with a single attack.
. But now that she has successfully executed that attack after I gave her baseball-based pointers, she finally managed to get her hands on what she always wanted. And now that she has that Job unlocked, this means that she can become a Master Smith like she always wanted. And I cannot wait to see her reaction when she finds out about that. This is going to be such a huge step forward, both for her as a person, and for us as a Party. Now that Sherry has become a Master Smith, we are finally going to be able to fuse any Skill Crystals we find or buy together with our weapons and armor. But now that things are going so well, it almost makes me afraid that something bad is going to happen to us, so let us hope that this is just a “what if” and nothing more.
「All right girl. How about we call it a day when it comes to exploration and go back home?」
「Already? Is it not a little bit too early for that?」
「Well, it might be, but there are a few more errands that I want to do, like visiting the Merchants Guild.」
「Understood.」
To tell you the truth, these “errands” that I wanted to do were little more than an excuse to stop exploring the Labyrinth earlier than usual today, because now that I feel so happy and uplifted for Sherry that she managed to obtain the Job she has always dreamed of, it would be exceptionally hard for me to do anything productive. That, and there is also a matter of my feeling that things were going a bit too smoothly for us lately. Or to put it in other words, the last few days felt as if we were under the influence of some super potent good luck magic, so it would be a huge waste to squander the effects of that magic simply because we do not know when to give up and call it a day. Now that we have achieved all of our (or mine) goals set up for today, leaving the Labyrinth and spending the rest of they day regenerating our strength seem like the most logical thing to do. Also, even though the three of us learned to cooperate each other better to the point where we should now be able to breeze through the monsters and Floor Bosses from the first seven floors of the Labyrinths, we must never forget that no matter how confident we might be feeling, we will never be truly safe as long as we continue to explore the Labyrinths halls. That lecherous Party that went to challenge Pan before was an all too good of an example of that. Their Party consisted of six people, the maximum allowed number of Party members and they all had weapons with 「Chant Delay」 imbued into them and they even managed to inflict so much damage onto the Floor Boss of the seventh floor that I was able to one-shot it with Durandal the first time we were fighting against it. . . . . . . . . . . . . . and yet, they were the ones who ultimately wound up dead in that encounter, as it was evident by their equipment that was now placed safely in my Item Box. So if we do not want to end up exactly like them, then I say it would be best to quit for the time being while we are still ahead than to push our luck and end up getting ourselves into a real shit-show of a situation.
「So, you really are going to go visit the Merchant Guild, master?」
Sherry asked me. That is right, Sherry, it is my current objective, since it was you who told me that Skill Crystals and equipment that already comes with Skills embedded into it can be bought at an auction in the Merchant’s Guilds. We have all of the weapons with 「Chant Delay」 left behind by that previous Party after all, and if we are not going to be using their weapons, then we might as well go and sell all of them for some nice money, and maybe buy some Skill Crystals while we are at it. That being said. . . . . . . . . . . well, how should I put it. . . . . .
Sherry has managed to finally become a Master Smith, but she has no way of knowing that just yet, which is why she behaves just like she normally does, not feeling the tension and the thrill at all. Well that was to be expected, since as a Party leader I am the only one who can check the Party Job Settings, but still. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . being the only person in my group who knows that we actually have a joyous cause for celebration is a kind of a bummer, I am not going to lie.
「That is right. Have you ever been to an auction before, Sherry?」
「No, I have not been to one or used one personally just yet. I also heard that even though the auctions are opened to anyone from the general public to participate, the people often do so by hiring a broker or other kinds of middlemen to attend the auctions for them.」
「A middleman or a broker, huh? I wonder why is that? Well, I guess we shall find out once we get there ourselves.」
