Chapter 261 Part 1
I logged in at 6:40 am.
Was I a little late?
Well, it’s natural to recover.
After collecting the magic stones produced by the Cintamini, I cleaned up the tent.
I’m the only one at the relay portal as usual.
It’s lonely.
Let’s summon Bunraku quickly and dispel my loneliness.
Of course, he’ll also prepare breakfast.
I took out some ingredients from the Item Box and organized them.
Maybe it’s time to think about more food?
There’s still enough Ghost Horse Meat left.
There are also beans and potatoes that have a relatively long shelf life, so I’m not in trouble for the time being.
Perhaps I should start thinking about getting more food somewhere?
The production workers’ support hasn’t gotten this far yet.
Should I also search for another map?
No.
I want to stick here until I add Nue to my summons.
It won’t be too late to think about it then.
With my food finished, let’s fight some battles..
What about today’s lineup?
The opponents are the pair of the Sphinx and Spinks.
Volff, Zangetsu, Helix, Tigris, and Daiga.
On top of a wolf, two tigers.
It’s a lineup that Adele would rejoice at.
The fluffy rate is high today.
Elder Sphinx Lv.2
Demon Enemy Target Active
Battle Position: In the Air, Ground ???
Elder Spinx Lv.2
Demon Enemy Target Active
Battle Position: In the Air, Ground ???
Today suddenly it’s an elder pair right from the morning?
If you don’t leave any items, I’ll go wild!
No, I’ll go wild anyways.
All of a sudden nasty opponents.
Perhaps because they’re level 2, I feel like I had a hard time.
I was prepared for annihilation when Zangetsu, Tigris, and Daiga were poisoned in a row, you know?
It was good to have it, Detoxification.
I’m pretty sure someone would have died without it.
And this time there was a little difference.
Because I picked up a new drop.
【Material】Lion Sage’s Claw Raw Material Quality B- Rarity 6 Weight 1+
Sphinx and Spinks claw. It has an extremely robust and sharp blade.
Umm.
Certainly, it’s an unprecedented size among fangs and claws, and it’s quite sharp.
The slightly curved claw’s length exceeds the size of a knife, like a dagger.
If it were straight, it’d be a sword.
How do I use this?
The first thing that comes to mind is a sickle for farm work.
If I had a handle, I could do it.
Hm.
It’s almost useless as a weapon.
On hold.
Now.
I was surprised by the sudden appearance of the Elder pair, but let’s continue as normal.
There‘s no change to the plan..
I said none.
Until I feast my eyes upon Nue’s form, the battles will not stop!
No, I don’t think it can really be completed today, but.
It’s past 8 am.
I haven’t run into any Elder pairs since then.
Was it just by chance?
No, I’m sure they come when I let down my guard.
I’ve been tricked!
I’m sure if I forget to apply Resist Thunder, it’ll appear.
Don’t stop using Gravity Prison at the beginning of every battle.
I won’t be fooled!
I must stay alert, no doubt.
Elder Sphinx Lv.1
Demon Enemy Target Active
Battle Position: In the Air, Ground ???
Elder Spinx Lv.1
Demon Enemy Target Active
Battle Position: In the Air, Ground ???
It actually showed up properly!
No no no no.
Not that.
Take this seriously, me.
I’ve already experienced the Elder Pair at Level 2.
Because of that, at Level 1 they don’t feel like much of a challenge.
It’s scary.
What usually happens eventually happening right away is problematic.
The usual Sphinx and Spinks pair has also become an even easier opponent.
Of course, without Gravity Prison, it would be a struggle.
I could probably actually hunt them without it, but let’s not get overconfident.
Dangerous.
The frequency of appearance of Elder pairs is gradually increasing.
For the most part, they stay at level 1.
Is it a little helpful?
The Lion Sage’s Claws drop with about half probability.
As soon as I thought that, level 3 elder pairs started to appear.
Is this bad?
Right away it was far from an easy pace.
What do you mean bad? I don’t have room to worry here.
If I slip up in the strategy, we’ll be wiped out immediately.
《【Joust】Level Up! 》
《【Summon Magic】Level Up! 》
《Racial Level Up! Please assign 1 point to 2 desired stats.》
The time is 10:10 am.
My level up is before Daiga’s?
Battling with the Elder Pair is tough, but it’s worth it.
I’m convinced.
Basic Stats
DEX 20
AGI 20
INT 30
STR 20 (↑ 1)
VIT 20 (↑ 1)
SPI 30
《You have gained 2 Bonus Points. You currently have a total of 4 Bonus Points.》
It’s beautiful.
But what do I do next?
Let’s go for INT and SPI.
Even I’m still technically a Summoner after all.
Also, I’ll get the【Unconscious Resistance】that I’d put on hold and activate it.
With this, my bonus points are zero.
In a sense, it’s beautiful.
However, the few bonus points that were there will be exhausted!
Waste?
I don’t think so.
Think of it as an up-front investment.
《【Unconscious Resistance】Level Up! 》
《 Summon Monster『Daiga』Level Up! 》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》
The time is 11:10 am.
Obviously early.
It’s clear that the experience points gained from the Elder Pair are time efficient.
Whatever.
With this, my original purpose can be fulfilled.
Class change, and the birth of Nue!
Let’s proceed quickly.
Daiga’s VIT has already risen.
I’ll choose AGI as the other.
Daiga Tiger Lv7 → Lv8 (↑ 1)
DEX 10
AGI 22 (↑ 1)
INT 10
STR 22
VIT 22 {↑ 1)
SPI 10
Skills:
Bite Threaten Sense Danger Night Vision Conceal
Then.
Let’s change the class.
Oh yeah, it would be nice to have Aramid, who will be the companion for Fuse Monsters.
I recall Tigris and summon Aramid.
Let’s remove the collar as well.
Of course, Fusion Identification is also used.
Shall we proceed with the class change operation from the status screen?
Daiga Tiger Lv8 → Forest Tiger Lv1 (New!)
DEX 10
AGI 23 (↑ 1)
INT 10
STR 25 (↑ 3)
VIT 24 (↑ 2)
SPI 10
Skills:
Bite Threaten Sense Danger Night Vision Conceal
【Forest Tiger】Summoned Monster Battle Position: Ground
High-ranking species of tiger. The means of attack is biting, etc.
The pattern of fur becomes finer than that of Tiger.
The physique is one size larger than the tiger.
A beast that has excellent attack power and can play an active role day and night.
Originally a tiger with good night vision, his ability has improved.
《The target is an eligible Summon Monster for fusion. One more Summon Monster is required.》
《All Summon Monster Fusion Targets are present.》
Yup.
I know that.
Still, if I don’t check, I might miss something.
「Fuse Monsters!」
What was born by choosing Aramid and Daiga?
It’s a familiar Summon Monster.
Oh yeah, let’s decide on a name.
Raibun Nue Lv1 (New!)
DEX 12
AGI 24
INT 13
STR 28
VIT 25
SPI 12
Skills:
Bite Threaten Sense Danger Scent Detection Heat Detection Night Vision
Conceal Predator Fusion Poison Lightning Attribute
【Nue】Summoned Monster Battle Position: Ground
A kind of fused monster, originally a youkai. It is a thunder beast.
The main means of attack are biting and special attacks.
Excellent in sneak attack ability.
I feel like Nue doesn’t have many skills.
A lot of other summoned monsters have many skills, but.
This seems to be enough.
What is scary is the existence of predatory fusion.
I don’t know what will happen.
I am looking forward to seeing what kind of growth will be shown in the future.
The collar that Daiga was equipped with will be equipped to Raibun by adding parts.
Have I earned a break with this?
Well, my immediate goal has been achieved.
It’s also good to work hard to improve my level here.
But you know.
I really want to see another landscape.
That’s right.
Let’s go south.
Lesser Basilisk?
I don’t know if grinding will work until I try it.
By the way, which god was the Lesser Basilisk?
whatever.
I’ll find out when I fight them.
Before that.
Let’s finish lunch.
Shall I summon Bunraku to prepare my meal?
There are also two summon monster slots.
I want time to ponder what to do.
The source of my worries is what summoned monster to choose.
What’s the one I’m considering the most?
I’m leaning towards an Imp.
It’s not difficult to get one of those right away.
That’s because there are currently two slots available.
Summon a Bat and Fairy and use Fuse Monsters.
That’s all it takes.
Now that the slot is open, I can do it without difficulty.
In that case, there’s only one frame left.
And what if the Imp also became a succubus?
I haven’t confirmed what will be born by using Fuse Monsters with Venom Python.
Yes, aiming for Venom Python, the remaining slot will be for a Python.
But I also want to leave it open for a dolphin.
I also think that the mist is good.
No, I’m interested in each of the class change options I didn’t select.
【Summon Magic】has just improved its level.
Should I choose carefully here?
I continued to worry while eating.
I continued to worry even after I finished.
Here’s a compromise.
Let’s summon only the imp.
As with Taihaku, should we decide on a name first?
Keimei.
Since Taihaku was the evening star, next is the morning star [1. TN Note: Taihaku and Keimei both refer to Venus at different times of day, evening star and morning star].
Then.
Let’s recall Zangetsu and Bunraku.
And I’ll birth an Imp.
Kei Bat Lv1 (New!)
DEX 15
AGI 19
INT 10
STR 6
VIT 8
SPI 11
Skills:
Bite Flight Echolocation Evade Ambush Bloodsucking
Mei Fairy Lv1 (New!)
DEX 6
AGI 19
INT 20
STR 1
VIT 1
SPI 23
Skills:
Flight Levitation Magic Resistance [Medium] MP Recovery [Small] Light Attribute
Alright.
Next is Fuse Monsters.
But which Imp is this?
Will it be the third one?
Keimei Imp Lv1 (New!)
DEX 6
AGI 20
INT 20
STR 2
VIT 2
SPI 23
Skills:
Flight Levitation Echolocation Magic Resistance [Medium] MP Recovery [Small]
Light Attribute Dark Attribute
Of course, after the class change, aiming for the space-time attribute will not change.
I know it’s useful.
That’s set in stone as far as I’m concerned.
Oh yeah, and let’s give Taihaku’s equipment to Keimei.
