So I guess that the general rule here is that if you do not go out of your way to specifically cut away the wrists of the people whose Intelligence Cards you wish to confiscate, then they are going to be sucked in by the Labyrinth along with the bodies of the deceased, never to be recovered again.
So you want to obtain their Intelligence Cards before they dissapear to exchange them for money, huh?
Yes, and keeping the cut hands in a cloth like that is the best way to ensure that the Intelligence Cards will not be lost anywhere after the get naturally extracted from them.
Well, if you say so, then I guess that is how it is going to be. And honestly, I thought that I was going to get used to how brutal and violent this world was at times, but apparently I was wrong, because seeing them actually cut someones hand and then toss it into an improvised cloth bag like that has still made me feel a little bit sick in my stomach. Is this what is considered to be common sense in this world?
Is this procedure a widely accepted one when it comes to handling the remains of Bandits and Thieves? Because if so, then this is definitely one of these moments where I feel genuinely happy about the fact that the common sense of this world did not become a part of my mind, which is still largely intact and the same as it was in the time when I was still living my sad, depressing life back in Japan.
Okay, not that this little distraction is done with, I am going to defeat the next group of monsters that we are going to encounter with my sword, but after that, I will switch back to using magic again, but utill then, the three of us are going to be fighting together in the vanguard.
Yes, thank you very much, master!
My MP still has not fully recovered after I used that Equivalent Exchangeand the killed two of the Bandits to replenish some of it, so I would like to use Durandal throughout one more fight in order to replenish it completely, and after that, it is going to be back to using magic, after all, my original goal of coming here was to test how comfortable my new Rod of Offerings was going to be to use.
The thirteenth floor of the Labyrinths is definitely an undeniable jump in both the difficulty and the length of the fights that we are waging here, but Roxanne still managed to avoid the attacks that were directed towards her with such ease as if she was doing just a bit of morning exercises before a meal. But wait, are you supposed to do your exercises before, or after you eat breakfast in the morning?
Is it not that one of these two is supposed to make you feel hungrier so that the food would taste better, while other is supposed to help you burn all of the calories you might have accumulated from your meal? No matter. The most important thing to know here is that Roxanne was doing just as fine as she usually did.
The battles have really gotten slightly longer than usual, do you not think, master?
Roxanne remarked about the exact same thing that I have already observed.
Yeah, but even so, we should not have any problems with cleaning up the enemies here, especially since I can defeat most of them with my magic.
Yes, most definitely. That is exactly why I am so grateful to master for having mastered so many magical abilities, because thanks to them a portion of the burden that would normally be placed on mine and Sherrys shoulders can now be lifted, meaning that do not have to be on alert as much as we would have to be if master was not supporting us with his magic. Thanks to that, if I only have one enemy to deal with thanks to master disposing of all the others, I know that I am going to be able to doge their attacks and defeat them even with my eyes closed!
Uhm, yes, I agree with what Miss Roxanne is saying wholeheartedly. If master did not have access to magic, then we would definitely have shared the same problems like all the other Parties that did not have a Mage among their ranks, meaning that the battles that can be concluded relatively quickly under our current circumstances would have dragged on for much longer than it is actually necessary. So as I was saying, masters magic is really a huge help as long as concluding battles in a quick fashion is concerned.
Concluding battles in a quick fashion, huh? It would have been much better if I could wrap the battles with the lesser monsters up as soon as they are starting, but at my current level and with my current MP pool I guess there is nothing much that I can really do about it, huh? Also, for that same reason, I would not really call myself all that strong. I mean, with magic, and Durandal and all of my Jobs and their combined bonuses I guess you could call me pretty OP in my own right, but I still think that Roxanne is much more amazing than I am because of how she can avoid the attacks of all the enemies that we have encountered so far without breaking as much as a sweat.
