Gate of Amitilicia Online

Episode 41: The Trip - Day 1 Morning

The sky is clear and the breeze is pleasant. I walk down the street with Quinn, wondering if it would feel good if I took a nap.

When I say street, it's not paved, but it's even averaged, so there's no obstacle to carriage traffic. Both ends of the road for horses are sidewalks, and we walk there. Is it true that the streets of Rome were like this?

Several carriages carry people and things through us. The time slot is the time slot, so I guess it's too far away from the carriage heading to Einfast for the moment.

The number of people going down the street was lower than I thought. Looks like most of the players who were gathered at the South Gate went hunting as they were. I hear there's a cow on this side. Even if it's a cow, it's not a black and white pattern, but a light-hearted bison with a rough temper. Um, fur, meat and delicious prey. And Mr. Bots said this guy was popular with peeling, too.

"If we find a cow, let's secure it, Quinn."

Talking to his partner as he relaxed and walked, he rocked his tail wide. Right, right, you want some too? I want to eat. The stripping... well, okay. There's no way that a bull like that big deer could come out.

I guess I walk faster. I've outrun quite a few travelers. If you look at it this way, the players, whatever they are, also dress the residents' travelers differently. Is it just common to carry a weapon? Even a woman who didn't seem to be good at battle had a small sword or dagger. It's only going to be a respite, but I guess the perception is that danger is tight.

And to observe from the conversation that came into my ear as I passed, it seemed to form a small group between unfamiliar travellers. I guess this is also a measure to avoid danger. There's no kiri if you mention quality, but two or three will be less likely to be attacked than one, and the average person won't be able to afford to hire an escort.

Besides, these encounters may still be connected in the future. The guy who looked like a businessman when he walked by earlier was selling merchandise and stuff.

Yeah, that kind of trip sounds fun, too. If the speed of progression is right, though. Hate me and Quinn are healthy. Even if it's not a quick journey, if you want to hunt along the way, you can't be with them. If you give up the cow. Or... No, but that's a shame.

As I walked thinking about it, I saw a crowd ahead. Is there a story about the crowd? Something seems to be slowing down. You say the front is holding on?

That's right. Catch up with the group without taking long. The cause was immediately known. Ten people? There was a group of people walking across a pedestrian path. Some of them even stick out on horseback roads. They seem to enjoy themselves, but to be clear, they are obnoxious. These guys are in the way, and the other travelers can't move on.

Doesn't mean I can't walk off the road when I say street, so if I avoid it, I don't have a problem, but I do chamberlain messing around with a weapon in my hand like a toy about what's crazy. It's moving pretty flashy, so if you don't make a pretty big detour, you might accidentally hit a weapon this way. For what reason? It's because they don't seem to realize they're causing traffic in this state.

It's a good idea to be kidding each other, but I want you to think about time and place. It's called tone and good attitude, maybe a player, not a resident. I turned on marker display just in case, I knew I was a player. It's called the hunting guild thing, it's called the Mr. Cornell thing, I feel like I just run into something like this... did I do something wrong?

I thought someone would pay attention, but I don't think I can. All the travelers here now seem ordinary. Even one of the mercenaries would have drunk it for me if it was mixed up. I can't help it, can I?

I stepped forward through the travelers while I put in a no.

"I'm sorry! Make way for me."

And stay put, speak to the small group. I called out loud to make sure I noticed this one, and sued it back to normal volume where my consciousness was directed at this one. The people who stopped looking at me look at me surprised.

"What, you?

"As you can see, he's on his way. I want to move on, so I need you to clear the way."

Out of the way, let me be clear. It might react to hypersensitivity and cause it. No, there's a chance of that at the moment.

"You talk to people like they're interrupters... I don't like them"

Yes, I couldn't. One man in leather armor stares at this one. Why are you fighting? I don't care what you say. Change of policy.

"I'm like a disturber, not a disturber. I can't get through because you guys are stretching all over the road."

For once, equestrian roads are to be forbidden to walk. There is not a lot of traffic, and the carriage is so widely built that it is different, but the express postal horse can sometimes go all the way. So the people on foot walk down the pedestrian path. Because we know it's for our own safety.

On the other hand, I don't think the decision that you shouldn't be walking across a full sidewalk is explicitly cultured anywhere...... But there are no residents who do that.

"You're selling fights? Ah?"

"You must be the ones selling it. We just need you to clear the way."

Hey, and I look back. Naturally, even the other travelers who were stuck don't want to be spoiled by this situation. As long as we hang up, we naturally show our will.

I didn't say anything in particular. Still, silent pressure seemed to have been conveyed, and the players, reluctantly, paved the way. Though almost unarmed, I guess I was frightened that the numbers were higher here. Then don't be shy from the start. I'm talking.

I encourage the travelers to snort. The travellers passed by, meeting or thanking each other.

Traffic dissipates in no time. Don't let the travellers leave fairly quickly to get their delayed minutes back or want to leave early.

All right, you're all through. So am I.

"Wait!

They stopped me where I tried to go. This is funny when you do what you expected. If I really laugh, I'll oil the fire though.

It's a pain in the ass, but when I turn around, there's a line of grumpy faces. I know you don't care...... but that's the same here.

"How dare you embarrass me, huh?

Men who look awesome like chimps. Behind it I saw the women stirring it up for nothing.

"Shame is in the middle of something that's going on right now, right?

I told you, you don't know what that means, do you? and surprised chimps.

"You're inferior in number. Keep it big and change your attitude as soon as they're alone. That sexual root would be a disgrace."

I didn't mean to embarrass you at the time of caution. Aside from the story if you said you were ashamed of yourself for exposing the idiot, these guys won't have such a special idea. I'm simply interpreting what has been misstated as a disgrace to the travelers for giving in (supposedly).

"Are you dead, ahhh!?

Stand up to show off the weapons the men have in their hands. I was just wondering, what do these guys think of swinging weapons around on a round-trip basis, not to mention outside the city? Still, you want to die, or...

"You'll be the ones who want to kill me. So, who wants to be the bounty neck? It's only fair to know that he's going to be a prize neck by the time he does PK, right? Naturally, it would be a statement later prepared for the bounty hunter player to target his life, wouldn't it?

Regardless of the resident opponent, it is established that the prize neck will be certified at the time it is established, unless it is self-defense, with regard to the killing of the player. I mean, if I was killed by one of these guys on this spot, he'd be the bounty neck at that moment.

"If they crusade you as a bounty neck, you're gonna get a big penalty, right? Even the lowest ranked E-ranks will halve your level and possession of combat skills, and your stats will go down. Not temporarily, permanently. Besides, I won't even be able to log in for a certain period of time. You can do whatever you want with that. But in that case, I'll do my best to resist."

Ring the gauntlet, I'll intimidate you. Well, you won't be attacking me here. You don't seem to have the guts to do that. There are so many kids out there who are just pissed off.

Even at a glance, it still doesn't look like it will hang. Not that I have anything to say, but let's stop this any longer. Honestly, I'm tired of dealing with kids. If you see a resident or player annoying you again somewhere in the future, then that's the time. If I stayed on track, I'd have seen troubled eyes with the rough guys eventually, and I hope you think a little about this one.

Well, shall I go, too? That's what I thought.

"Khaaaa!?

Suddenly, a scream echoed. And I saw a blowing woman player. Ooh, you flew so well... no. When I glanced at the cause I immediately thought of, there was Quinn who let go of the [storm roar].

But what the hell happened? I can't imagine Quinn attacking people without understanding.

"What's up, Quinn?

When I asked, Quinn, who looked grumpy, looked at me and raised his jaw. That's where I bought it, a collar with a purple crystal pendant top. And something like a sparkling circle of light. It was a magical light, the light was stretching out into the players just blown out, but gradually disappearing. There seems to be no doubt that that woman did something to Quinn.

I just wonder what they did. I don't see any particular abnormality.

Log request in case of trouble. Change the settings and turn on the log display, and I'll take a look at Quinn's log. Now I'm in the shape of a party with Quinn. In GAO, events are irrelevant, and NPCs can have parties. It was questionable whether it could be combined with animals, but Quinn accepted to participate at his will and systematically it seemed fine because it was accepted. So, when we're having a party, things happen to the party members become logged. So if you look at that, you'll know what happened to Quinn.

This is what the log said.

Quinn got [Tame]

Quinn resisted [Tame]

... No Way That Woman, You Tried To Tame Quinn?

Quinn is NPC for sure. The markers remain NPC display and have not changed color as in Tame Animal. It's the same as the beast of the field in that sense.

But, hey, Quinn's got a collar, and he's got a bracelet. Regardless of the substance, it obviously doesn't look wild. Despite that, that woman tried to tame Quinn I was taking. Are you insane?

"How dare you!?

Ignore the barking people, I approach the blown woman. Quinn followed me, too.

A woman who was being helped up by her peers looks at this one hatefully.

"What the hell!?

And the first voice was this.

"I don't know what you're talking about. What are you going to do, tame on an animal that's someone else's property?

Quinn poked me in the back, but I ignore it for now. Because I know which way I don't have to go in. You don't belong to anyone.

"Huh? That ain't nobody's Tame Animal! What the hell are you talking about?

Come on, if you think it's nobody's, it'll be weird at the time you're complaining about me. You didn't complain to me because you thought I made you do it? I don't know why you're here.

"Do you really think that even the markers are NPC labeled, but that animals with collars and bracelets are not under anyone's protection? Instead, all non-player Tame Animals would be NPC displays though. No way, you haven't robbed another resident's animal before, have you?

All characters without players are NPC. The opinion of GAO has not changed. Only animals under player control change their label as Tame Animals, and NPC-controlled animals do not change markers. Tame means this guy has [tuning] skills, but don't you know that?

"What you've done now is the same thing as bringing a dog and cat walking around with a collar back to their house on their own from before their owners. If you're going to match it with real life... you're an animal thief."

I've heard that the law treats animals like animals, so it's like that, maybe. It's clearly not the same thing as protecting lost animals. I don't know if my way of saying it fits, but these guys won't have the head to judge that. Thieves, if only the part could be emphasized.

Stick around and suddenly try to taste the animal as soon as you encounter it, normal. Tame's terms seem to vary, but it seems important that the animal acknowledges the opponent. Whether it is trust by affection or ranking by strength. So, in this case, there's no way Quinn and the woman just now have a relationship of trust or anything, and they didn't show each other their powers, so they can't be ranked. If I tried Quinn, it would be like saying to each other, 'Give in without sticking around'. And naturally, there's no way the Queen would obey such an order.

"Understand the characteristics of the skills you use before you use them. I can't do 100% of what you're trying to tame this guy right now. So, are you guys going to take on one stick of this thief woman?

A glimpse of the players that were surrounding us. Is there an awkwardness that I just got my hands on first, I won't say anything?

I took Quinn and turned my heel back. Ha, I'm tired...

I'll explore it in [Signal Detection], but I can't see any movement from behind on what to do with us. I don't want to get involved with those people any more if I can. That's what I thought.

Quinn got [Tame]

Quinn resisted [Tame]

I got a message like I saw somewhere. I'll stop. Quinn also stopped on his feet as he roared low. Is that woman really human? Isn't it clogged with pudding instead of brains?

"Are you all right on your own?

Don't answer the question, Quinn turns back. The system doesn't know what kind of judgment I get when I attack them. It's like a party member has been attacked, so I think self-defense will be in place... and I don't have time to be sure. Do you want to contact the operation later?

Enough. I deserve it.

"At your will, do as you please"

That's what I said, take a breath, and I look back, too. By then, Quinn had already worn it on the tutor's arm.

The sky is clear and the breeze is pleasant. But I don't feel very good.

Eventually, after that, Quinn dragged around scattered with a bite in the tutor's arm. The players with him couldn't keep up with Quinn's speed, and the tutor was crying out, but at the end of the day he was bitten off the head and scattered. Too much, I didn't think so. Quinn seemed pretty upset, too.

I don't really want to say how manners are, but there's a guy who's obviously over-degreeed. That's one example I ran into, and maybe the same thing is actually happening all over the place. I don't care about fooling around between players, but I don't want residents bothering me.

I wonder what those guys would do earlier. Will you rendezvous with a disciplined woman back in death, or will you ignore her and move on? If you wish, I don't want to see you face to face again.

"From day one, you'll be considerate first."

Tension drops even though it's a journey. What the hell is going on...

"Hmm, what's up, Quinn?

And then Quinn stopped. He is pointing his nose out of the road with a crack.

Though the area is open, the streets are sewn through the sloppy hills. I don't see anything in particular before Quinn turns... over the hill?

Off the road and headed that way. Quinn was ahead of him, but he lowered himself close to the top of the hill and began to move slowly. When I get close too, I give in and see how it goes softly.

Beyond the hill there was a herd. A herd of animals like bison with light tea body hair is eating grass. When I checked with [Animal Knowledge], I went out with Fallula Bison. But what, it's not like the bison I know. That's especially amazing hair on your head. It's like Afro.

"... meat!

I haven't hunted and eaten yet, cow animals. Even if there are no special individuals, there are a few big guys there. But isn't it easy to get close because there's nowhere to lurk?

"Quinn, can you stop?

When asked, his tail slapped him on the back. I'll take care of it.

"Okay, please. Bison meat tonight."

Quinn popped out at once. The bison raised his head more than half way through the distance to the bison to see if the emerald-colored fur got a camouflage effect on the meadow. Quinn seems to have chosen the biggest male out of the confused herd. The storm wolf drove him over, and he comes this way.

All right, it's hunting time. I'm getting tense!
