97 - The Return

I just took a bath at an inn in Ichinokaku.

The sun was just beginning to rise when I emerged from the labyrinth.

I took a room and had a meal in the dining room, and here I am. There is no need to stay the night, but to use the bath, one has to stay at the inn. It is just a matter of mood, since < is applied.

Galahad has asked me for a beer after his bath, and we are now drinking in the room.

He gave me some more stones and gems that he found along the way as a thank-you for my help. He offered me all the materials, but I declined. He gave me three drops, including the one for me, but he said that two were enough, including a spare, so he left one for me.

"Since there is the matter of the man and there might be some interference in the delivery of the drops, I would appreciate it if you would not sell them until the matter is over.

"Understood."

"It seems safe with Homura."

"Even if the man had sent information to someone else in that short time, once the mask is removed, we won't be able to track him.

That's what I mean.

And isn't the rare drop < of Far Farsi also a kneading system?　Galahad gave me two. I would like to plant them, but unfortunately I don't have a place where I can plant them. I would like to have a house soon, but I would like to look around a little more. Maybe a clan house will come first?

What was that guy all about?

I'm sure it's something to do with us.

"I think it was a low-level guy, and I'll do some research when I get back to the country."

Speaking of which, how could Homura be okay with what she saw?

"Oh ......, well it was far away. It looked like an enemy."

I was completely disconnected from the game, or maybe I just thought it was grotesque, but I was more impressed by the fact that Farfasi looked like he was smiling after finishing his meal. It would have been different if it had been a resident with whom I was familiar. Maybe.

"Well, when we invited them, they were at least 20 levels above the appropriate level, and Homra and I were prepared for a very hard time, but we didn't expect it."

Galahad smiling and drinking beer.

"Homra's resistance to abnormalities was extraordinary!

"With the equipment and other things, his MID is about as high as you'd expect to see for a holy priest at that level, and with [Verna's Protection] and other resistance boosts, I think he's at the right level for a holy priest at that place, if only for his resistance to abnormalities."

"I don't have any resistance skills."

Isn't zero multiplied by 0%?

"It's not as good as skill, but the MID height will raise your resistance system to the bottom of the list."

"And I'm really glad we didn't get any succubus along the way."

Galahad sits cross-legged on the floor stirring a beer.

"Oh, I thought you said something about higher levels in the future, but are they going to appear on the road?"

"I've been wandering around on levels 31 to 39. It's like a field boss."

"You know how rarely we encounter these things?　I don't encounter them, but when I saw Homura's title, I was actually filled with anxiety when I hit rare bosses one after another.

"It would be a catastrophe if Homra got <."

"I thought there was a medicine that could cure that."

"There are two types of < used by succubus, the one that attacks allies on the succubus's side and the one that attacks without regard to the allies. The latter is not an attack. ......

From the female Succubus, I guess it's the H side of things. Are there also male incubus?

"Usually only men are attracted to them, and they can escape when Camilla comes to her senses by dispersing the potion. They're fickle demons, and if we don't attack them, they'll just charm us and go away. But if Homura attacked me, it would be a catastrophe that I can't avoid. ......"

You mean Mr. [Bouchujutsu]!

"In the meantime, Homura, for our peace of mind, please acquire [charm resistance] when you get a chance. As for [Confusion Resistance], well, I think the probability of the skill being triggered by the skill barrage from confusion is low. ......"

You mean Mr. [Bouchu-jutsu]!

Although he doesn't say so explicitly, he seems to be quite traumatized by the [bosonaka-jutsu].

I'm sorry to say this, but I'm getting the feeling that I won't be able to relax until my resistance is 100%, or at least until my charms are disabled.

"I've already been on the skill list, but which is better, to use the skill points to get [Charm Resistance] here, or to get [Magic Formation Making] and quickly make an item to prevent possession?"

""............[magic circle production] at ............[magic circle production]""

The guys looked at me like I was having a hard time making a decision, and pushed me to choose [magic circle].

"Actually, Farfasi doesn't cause any abnormalities, so if you think about the probability calmly, it's true."

Camilla is cooler than the two of them.

Well, if the magic circle is just a bonus, and it's only to ward off possession, we can make it into an accessory with jewelry as it's made with kneaded metal, but let's not mention it.

I wonder if we have to have a book of sample magic circles.

"By the way, Homura, about that mask, it will be fine as long as you don't say your name with the mask on and show us how you put it on and take it off. Even if we call you 'Homura', people around you will probably call you 'you' or 'you', or if you call yourself 'Rengaard' or something like that, they will convert it to 'Rengaard' by themselves.

"Oh, that's convenient."

"And it's a sacred tool."

God of Underpants, you said you would give me what I need. You've got an itch!

After delivering the drops to the client, we promised to meet again in three or four days to give them the items to prevent possession, and we left Galahad and the others.

I turn on the clan conversation, which I had turned off.

Homura: Hey, hey?

Chrysanthemum Princess: It's too late: ！！！！

Leo: Wahahahahaha!

Shin: I'm tired!

Ochazuke: dead!

Homura: What did you do?

Shin: I went with Leo and got into a lot of trains, and when I was helpless, I met the area boss of Barong and jumped into the area, and I died.

Ochazuke: It was terrible.

Homura: You are so brave to show Leo the way.

Kikuhime: I want you to sell me some medicine!

Shin: Me too!

Ochazuke: Me too!

Leo: Likewise!

Homura: Give me the materials. Or store-bought.

Ochazuke: OK, OK!

Leo: I have no money!

Chrysanthemum Princess: Why are you so poor!

Shin: I wonder why (distant look)

Ochazuke: I believe there are consignment terminals in countries other than Geers. Can you at least buy them there?

Shin: Seriously!

Homura: Where is it?

Ochazuke: Was it a production center?

I had to change the setting to only check the menu in the middle of the world announcements, except for my own, because it was getting in the way of doing the boss. I turn it off when I go out to attack a boss and turn it back on when I'm done, but sometimes I forget to turn it back on.

I had originally set the production title announcements only for the menu check, but the other day I saw that Elias had won something.

It seems that the production titles are mainly awarded for the first completion of specific production requests, and the requests are varied. The titles can vary from almost name-only ones to highly effective ones. It is said that if you accumulate small titles and become famous among the residents, you can get a rather large title by a nomination request.

I hear that many of the titles change like a rising fish, from "hobby craftsman" to "budding craftsman" and so on.

Well, I'll just skim over the announcements in my spare time.

After an hour at the production center in the second wall, we move to meet up with the others when I finish production. It is a little early for the others to sleep, but the death penalty makes it difficult for them to produce and fight, so they are doing errand quests that can be done in the city.

When I arrived at the production center, I asked for the location of the consignment terminal and was told that H! and M! and M!

Homura: It's a little late for that, but I'm not sure if H! and M! and activators, right?

Kikuhime: OK, you know.

Shin: Oh, and the poison remover, please!

Leo: Me too, me too!

Ochazuke: I'll have ten transfer stones, too. Can you give them to me later?

Homura: Good, but why are they selling it for more than the store price?

Ochazuke: A trap to catch people who don't know the market price at the N!C store.

Leo: The warehouse is so full of trash that we can't fit it in, so we put it at a higher price than the market price and use it as a warehouse.

Shin: If you put it at a slightly higher price, you can get a little money.

Kikuhime: You're so stingy!

Don't hoard trash.

I'd like to say, but I've got a lot of stuff in there too. Storage magic is useful.

I buy medicinal herbs and such at cheaper prices than in the residents' stores, and I also buy cheap attribute stones and a lot of dexterity rings from Yagyakul, so I buy them all, leaving the overpriced ones behind. I wonder if it is possible to do this with a magic circle and a healer's grant. I wonder if the gems are compatible with each other.

I bought some high quality medicinal herbs without knowing whether they are expensive or not. It is time to increase the amount of recovery medicine. I wonder if it is possible to make a high recovery potion.

A while ago, I was thinking that other than me, I could make non-attribute stones when I found them for sale, but now there are already stones of power and strength for a certain amount of time, stones of fire-needle for attacks, etc. on the consignment market. Non-attribute stones are very versatile and varied.

However, it seems that only stones up to level 10 are available for offensive magic, and when I checked, I found that magic above level 11 is contained in gemstones.

Red crystals and rubies with level 20 fire swords were sold. Since the rank of materials is red crystal < ruby, it may be that the higher the rank of the material, the more magic can be put into the gemstone, or the lower the level of the gemstone, the easier it is to put magic into the gemstone.

Looking at the items on sale, we can see that there is a tendency that the type of magic that can be cast depends on the color of the gemstone.

It's fun to see the variety of items available. Unfortunately, since non-attribute stones are still expensive, all items using non-attribute stones are inevitably expensive. The problem is that dark and light stones are used for non-attribute stones. If the level of kneading is improved and it becomes possible to synthesize six materials, it may be possible to synthesize fire, earth, gold, water, and wood, but it may take a while to get there yet.

In the fantasy route, stones of each attribute fall, and dark and light stones are easy to get. Either way, the supply will be sufficient and the price will settle down.

I borrow a production facility of medicine for an hour and produce it.

The commissioned goods, which are not new, are quickly finished.

And as expected <<< high H! recovery potion (high potion)>>. At first, I change half of the potion to a high potion.

High quality herbs 2, water 2, and high H! High potion.

High H!? 4 high potions and serum to make high vitality potion. The number of required herbs has quietly increased by one since the time of the life-activating drug.

M!? What are the ingredients for the M!　I think it's "high quality something" but I can't find anything that looks like it.

Well, M! active drug is enough for now.

I wonder if I should go back to Diaz by transfer and go to my own store, where I can get production facilities.　It would have taken less time if we had moved by transfer.

It's too late now, though, as we met up at the second production center and started production, spending halfway through the day.
