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 Corrals 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.
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 Merchants 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.
