Chapter 274 Part 2
《【Glassmaking】Level Up! 》
Ah!
Did I zone out?
Well, the work was too boring and I was just silently repeating the same process.
What time is it?
All of a sudden 4:30?
Huh?
It seems like I’ve been zoned out for a while.
Whatever.
It seems like the bottle production is going nicely after all.
Let’s drink a mana potion and get back to work.
Is it okay to keep the matches as they are?
Let’s continue.
How’s Bunraku doing?
It looks like he might finish excavating soon.
And there are signs of petrified wood.
That’s good enough!
《You have received some information from the GMs. Do you wish to read it?》
The time is 5:20 pm.
Suddenly there’s system info.
What is it?
《The maximum number of participants has been reached! Participants will be notified of their match schedules individually.》
Oh.
I guess the participant capacity is full.
Well, I’m sitting this one out.
I am planning to watch the game though.
The day after tomorrow?
I’ll look forward to it.
《【Alchemy】Level Up! 》
I’m also happy for【Alchemy】to level up.
And at last, the thing that should rightfully happen has happened.
What is that?
It looks like the Item Box has filled up.
It seems like Master’s Metal Skin is sticking the extras in the workshop.
That took a while.
But what should I do now?
No, there is something to do.
I wanna spar too!
What about Bunraku?
He’s already excavated the Petrified Wood from the Ancient Stone Pillars.
I’m very happy to be getting some in stock.
I’ll have him continue to excavate Ancient Stone Pillars.
I mean he’s clearly faster at excavating than me.
As expected. If there’s one thing he has it’s DEX.
When Master’s Metal Skin came back, he brought me a meal.
Is it that time?
I appreciate it.
Then.
Let’s change the matchups for the evening.
Goki will go against me.
Abyss and Keimei are with a handicapped Telomere.
I want to somehow end up with an even matchup.
Was it unreasonable?
I banned Telomere from flying or sucking blood, but.
In the end it was useless.
Telomere’s strong!
Ambush doesn’t seem to work on Keimei.
That said, even if she went into a one-on-one brawl with Abyss, she’d always be superior.
I don’t know what to say.
If I could somehow get Keimei to a level up, is what I thought but.
It seems that the matchup is bad.
So I’ll alter the match.
I recalled Abyss and summoned Oma.
So.
Will that close the difference in strength?
Let’s try it out.
Oops.
I should probably start sparring myself, right?
As usual, Goki has a wooden sword and shield.
I have a wooden katana.
I can fight all out.
That’s how it should have been.
It seems to not work out.
The battle times don’t mesh.
The match of Oma and Keimei versus Telomere gets settled relatively quickly.
What about the match between Goki and me?
It tends to end up timing out.
The timing is a little too bad to get a bunch of matches in.
Can’t be helped.
Let’s change the weapons.
I’ll use the Staff of Torture.
Goki’s a steel straight sword.
It’s not even.
But there’s some tension.
I like it.
《【Summon Magic】Level Up! 》
《Racial Level Up! Please assign 1 point to a desired stat.》
The time is 10:20 pm.
Did I level up first?
I didn’t expect that.
Well I guess I’ll take it.

《You have gained 2 Bonus Points. You currently have a total of 23 Bonus Points.》
What should I do?
I’m stuck.
There are two slots for summon monsters.
Should I leave just one and fill the other?
That might be good.
Then.
Let’s recall Goki.
What should I summon?
The reason for training Keimei is simple.
I’ve got to make it a Fuse Monster option, right?

What should I do?
I would like to level it up in sparring as is, but.
With who?
There’s too much of a strength difference so I’m a little scared.
Let’s leave that for another day.
Recalling Radical I summon Senki.
I also want to do some hand-to-hand.
I won’t lose on this.
Even if Senki is a strong enemy.
《Summon Monster『Keimei』Level Up! 》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》
As expected, with Telomere for an opponent, the level up is quick!
Even when handicapped.
Keimei’s INT has already risen.
I’ll put the other point in STR.

By the way, Telomere’s level up was a while ago, right?
I feel like she’s been at level 5 for quite some time.
Well.
Eventually she should level up.
Let’s wait patiently.
That aside Senki, you’re merciless!
The times when I lose are usually an instant defeat.
When I take several attacks one after another.
Generally, with the first blow no matter how I defend, my body shifts.
Or rather, it’s blown away.
If it’s really bad, my feet leave the ground.
How do I win?
It’s an absolute requirement to avoid hits and kicks.
There are many ways to fight with attack and support spells, but doing so is not disciplined.
It’s purely hand-to-hand training.
Winning or losing isn’t as important.
As If!
It really does suck to lose!
I’ve gotta come up with something.
It’s not balanced enough!
That’s right.
To erase Senki’s advantage and overcome my disadvantage, I need to devise something.
My method of fighting isn’t at fault.
That’s what I’ve decided.
Even at a disadvantage hand-to-hand combat is fun.
Because there’s a breakthrough point somewhere.
However.
Senki won’t take the same attack twice.
He’s started to counter throw techniques, since I use them often.
But I can use that to my advantage.
It’s interesting because occasionally a bold move like a shoulder wheel will be the decider.
Power isn’t too necessary for throwing techniques.
Well, it’s less important when compared to timing and balance, but it’s still good to have power.
It seems that Senki is still unable to handle continuous moves.
And so after the defeat of a joint technique I can still dominate in offense and defense.
But.
Senki’s also beginning to learn to use joint techniques not only with power but also with timing.
It’s a good trend.
Although for me it becomes more troublesome to spar with, but.
There’s a difference in body size, and the match is honestly tough, but it’s fun so that’s good.
That aside.
I’m behind by one win again, right?
Let’s recover.
Let’s do it.
《【Physical Enhancement】Level Up! 》
《【Unconscious Resistance】Level Up! 》
《You may learn the following Support Skill:【Poison Resistance】》
It was 11:30 pm when I finally managed to even out the score.
It seems likely for me to become unable to stop again.
Should I call it here?
And it seems that I can acquire a good support skill.
【Poison Resistance】, huh.
Of course, it’ll be an important support skill to counter poisonous monsters.
Even if it’s not perfect.
The cost of acquisition is high at 9, but I can afford it at the moment.
Of course, I acquire and activate it.
Isn’t this the biggest fruit of the fights today?
I think so.
Bunrak’s excavation is still in progress but I’m cancelling it.
I wait for Telomere and the other’s to finish their match.
With the magic cloth I repaired the Summon Monsters’ equipment.
How’s my MP bar?
It’s down to about 20%.
It was unexpectedly tight.
It seems like a rate at which I would have ran out part way through if I hadn’t used mana potions
Although it’s a production activity, Quick Recreate doesn’t take time, so.
It’s possible that your MP bar could be exhausted before you know it when you get absorbed in it.
In my case, isn’t that possible?
I better be careful.
Let’s go to Remut early tomorrow.
Is it okay to show up at the guild leader’s place?
I have no plans to participate in the tournament this time.
Mentally and temporally speaking, I have plenty of free room.
Tomorrow I’ll meet Lambda-kun, and after that the summoner exchange party.
I have plenty of time to spare before the meeting time, but let’s start moving in the morning tomorrow.
