In that case, do you have any ideas why did the previous Party that tried challenging Pan ended up dying anyway, even though most of their Party members came equipped with the weaponry that had Chant Delayon it?
Usually Chant Delayshould work without any issues, but maybe they simply were unable to delay Pans magic attacks with just the four of them?
Five of them, it would seem.
Sherry said while presenting me with another Two-Handed Copper Sword of Obstruction that she was holding in her hands. So, their Party had five people with weapons that had Chant Delayadded onto them, but it was still not enough to stop Pan from casting his magic, huh? Oh, and by the way, the last member of that Party must have been a Mage, Monk or Perhaps a Priest focused on Healing Magic, because the other weapon I found just lying around here was a Wand.
Five people with Chant Delay were not enough to contain the Floor Bosss magic? I have to say, that it pretty terrifying.
Indeed it is, but it is not our problem right now. However well prepared these guys might have been, they were bad people, and bad people are always going to get what is coming to them.
You can say that again, Sherry. That is the price hot-headed morons pay for getting in over their heads.
Aaaand the girls are still holding a grudge against the members of that Party. Come on now, you two. These guys are dead now, so there is no use in continuing to berate them like that since they already got what was coming to them, but. . . . . . . .
Pan was wounded to the point where all that it took to defeat him was a single blow from Durandal, which means that these guys had to be doing pretty well for the most of their battle. But in that case, what was the thing that sealed the deal for them? Was it some kind of accident during battle, or perhaps Pan was able to activate his AoE magic attacks continuously because the five of them were unable to delay it enough to stop him from finishing the chant?
That just goes to show that even though information and strategy are very useful things to have in the Labyrinths, relying on them too much might be as bad as not relying on them enough, because one accident or misstep can still lead to failure all the same. That is why it is important to always steadily increase your own abilities so that you would not fail when the situation would call for you to act.
That is right. It is precisely because they are foreign bodies to the Labyrinth that it takes so much time for it to process them into treasure chests, and that is also why they are so rare no matter which Labyrinth you go to.
I see. So that is why we can claim any piece of equipment that has been left by the previous Party that failed to defeat the Floor Boss. It is because the Labyrinth needs way more time to process the equipment into treasure chests than it needs to process the bodies of Adventurers in order to continue to grow up that we can simply walk in, defeat the Floor Boss and claim all of the spoils present in the room before they get absorbed into the ground.
That being said, it does not really feel right to be using the equipment of someone who died wearing it literal moments ago, so maybe we should just go and sell all of it?
That previous Party did not have any useful pieces of armor aside from Leather Gloves and Leather Boots, but I think that since all of those Two-Handed Copper Swords of Obstruction have Chant Delay placed onto them, then we should be able to get ourselves some pretty nice money for them.
Anything that belonged to a defeated Party belongs to the Party that kills the Floor Boss, so now that we defeated Pan, it is okay to not think about this equipment as the one who belonged to that awful previous Party and start think about it as our own. Once we get back home I will make sure to give all of them a thorough maintenance, so it should be okay for us to be using the pieces that seem useful and sell the ones that we will not need.
As usual, Roxanne is such an equipment maintenance freak. Well, since she says that it should be all right for us to take all of it, then I guess that is how it really must be. Ne of the other pieces of equipment that remained after the annihilated Party was a single piece of Leather Armor, but right now we have no need for it, because all three of us already have their own pieces of armor that we are currently using. Sherry was the one who found and presented it to me, but no matter how hard I try to justify her using it my head, I just. . . . . I cannot find any reasons in favor of it, not when I have Roxanne right next to me, who is also wearing exactly the same Leather armor to a much more. . . . bombastic effect.
. . . . . . . . . . ??? What is it, master? Is something troubling you?
N-No, not exactly. . . it is. . . . it is just that I thought that we will have to sell this Leather Armor here, since we do not need another copy of the same one we already have, since no one of us is going to be using it. . . that is all.
Yeah, that is all I am going to say about it. I do not want to say anything else, and I do not want to even think about it.
Certainly, mine are small, but. . . . . . . . . . .
However, Sherry, being a smart girl that she is, was able to catch onto what I was thinking by saying it like that, and was now staring at her own chest with a look of disappointment painted all over her face.
