Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai
Episode 227: On the eve of the showdown
When it comes to magic items, there are a variety of things that only impress "Shizuku of Life" but have various effects, like the classic RPG. After I disappeared, the Aoshi party was quite available in the palace area.
For example, "Guard Ring," which has a defensive effect, "Disease Wing Decoration," which can be speeded up, and "Medal of Courage," which is unbeatable by fear. Still, Shizuku of Life, which can charm death damage, is a breaking effect.
With the power of vocation, the effect of magic items becomes a whisper. Now, even if May is equipped with a "bracelet of power," she can't feel as much enhancement. Also, "Disease Feather Decoration" doesn't make sense to those who are mastering "Disease (High Walk)," a mobile martial arts technique.
However, with poor specs as low in physical ability as I am anyway, these effects are a valuable means of strengthening that I want so much that my hands can get out of my throat.
"Ha ha, I'm in the mood to put it on gold and get the strongest gear!
I can't stop laughing in front of the many magic items lined up with jalajara.
Well, I didn't pay for it, and it doesn't make it the strongest piece of equipment I can say.
These magic items are the fruit of previous explorations. Once you've explored an attacked area, there's still a treasure chest that's quite retrieved.
Shame on you, I've got enough to distribute at least two per person, and I'm starting to get extra stuff that doesn't make sense to be equipped with effects, etc.
What we have here is almost extra stuff. So there's no problem with my monopoly.
If you prioritize yourself and use a magic item, you will be dissatisfied. I waited a long time until I could get to all of them and get enough of the extra stuff on top of them.
"After all, power first! Power is power!
"Bracelet of Strength": A bracelet with reinforced magic "Strengthen Your Arms (Forth Boost)".
Literally, you get a magical effect that strengthens your arms. Oyama also used "Arm Strength (Forth Boost)".
"Wow, this. You're simply about twice as powerful."
Lift up all kinds of materials and light stones that are gobbling on the entrance workshop and feel the effect. I could normally take responsibility for something as good as 50 kilos in my body.
If this is about it, a man who worked out can show muscle strength, not so much Superman. But if this much power comes out of my skinny arms, it's quite effective.
"I saw this as a type of rising STR by a fixed number, not by a certain percentage"
If it's a game, there are types of buffs that use their status as their original value to add up a determined number like 10% or 20% of that and +100 of STR + 10 or Attack.
Even I, whose original status is too poor, will gain visibly more determined power from the start. Even for me, it is a value like an error from Mae's point of view.
"After all, does it feel less effective for people who are strong from the beginning"
Thank you to me. This gives me a lot of strength, too, when I have a poor status that I can afford to go down with a blow of miscellaneous fish.
"I guess defense is next. Because I hate to hurt!
"Guard Ring": A ring that activates the same effect as the martial arts "Hard Body (Guard)".
He has also proven his effectiveness. Even if he gets hit or hit with a stone, he's hard enough to do no damage.
Though not defensive enough to stop martial arts, it's a comforting effect to care if you get caught or bitten by a gargoyle. Maybe it's them if they get in the way.
"And most importantly, not fast enough!
"Diseased Feather Decoration": You can run fast, just like you hosted the martial arts "Diseased Run".
Travel speed is an important element. Even at times of need, escape is only fast.
With this, you can run through as fast as an Olympic athlete for a hundred meters. Besides, it also increases jumping power.
I wonder if he wanted to use Koitsu to parkul the ruins city.
"And because the body is capital"
"Vital Bracelet": a bracelet that enhances your health and stamina.
I don't know what strength is in the first place, so I don't think I can demonstrate it, but even if I get injured, the amount of time I can survive will grow. I'd love it if you could keep the pain down, but I didn't want to experiment with boulders, so I haven't tried it.
Stamina has a perfect effect. With him, the full marathon is going to be complete all of a sudden.
"Shit, maybe I'm not the highest physical ability as a human being right now?
Power, speed, stamina, with all this, I wonder if any sport can be top notch.
But sad, in this other world, it's only a miscellaneous fish spec, such as the human limit of the Earth. Gov. and so on.
"My natural abilities are broken. Guys, we have stronger powers than this..."
Even Ueda and Nakai have already demonstrated their power across humans, and even Julimari is a woman, but more capable than they are.
And it is the three aces who have the power to go further beyond such a superhuman avant-garde combination.
Well, I can't help being jealous of that now. Because I have spells and life!
"In the meantime, you've got the least amount of ability."
That rocky mountain is steep. When you get in with your vegetarian abilities, there's something tough about just climbing up and going.
"It's good to have all the effects, Critical"
Magic items are not all wacky if held. Like a game system, there seems to be more of a combination or compatibility problem than a limitation on the gear frame….
If you have the same magic item, for example, only one of them functions. Even the different magic items appeared to be compatible, and when held together, they did not work or fell significantly.
Therefore, it is necessary to choose a combination of magic items to be equipped for as long as necessary and compatible and not inhibited in effect.
I don't have as many or as many of them as I worry so much about gear.
I will be the most equipped of all. [M] I have four magic items.
"If I can decipher it a little more, I could modify the magic item."
Unfortunately, I can't do it right now. It is the och who badly breaks it.
"I just got one cane, let's do it"
I succeeded in creating a new wand on my own after trial and error, using two methods, Foreign Law Decryption and Curse Formation.
Name it 'Air Launcher'.
It's more of a firing device than a cane. As for the shape, it feels like a short-shot grenade launcher.
Using the treasure of the wind as a power source, it is a structure that strikes out balls. For once, "Wind Blade (Ale Sagitta)" can also be shot.
Since I was able to produce a series of poisonous smoke balls and other balls in front of me, I thought I'd take advantage of it. I'm not a shooter, so I can tell if I shot an arrow with balls or something. Not very much, but not likely to be used in action.
Or throwing it by hand... with no confidence in your shoulders or control.
So I thought if I used the wind treasure balls that I could shoot "Wind Blade (Ale Sagitta)" when loaded on "Fool's Wand," I could make something like a grenade launcher that would fly balls in a good way with wind magic, and I started manufacturing it.
I even broke one of the magic wands I got from the crate, but it safely coincided with completion.
His liver is a launcher, no matter how you look at it, but it's a "fool's wand" and an output adjustment to the wind pressure it fires.
I, the magician, cannot be handled with a cane of the wind attribute. [M] But if you are subject to the activation of "Fool's Wand," you will also be able to shoot "Wind Blade (Ale Sagitta)" with spell handling.
I wonder what the hell the rules are, but in order for me to handle a magic wand anyway, there's nothing better than relying on The Fool's Wand.
In the meantime, even the launcher acknowledged me as a 'fool's wand', and I honestly offer a prayer of gratitude to Master Ruinhilde for his judgment on Gabagaba.
"Extraterritorial decoding" helped adjust the output of the wind pressure to be fired out.
I decrypted it from Goma's magic formation, and I carved a whole bunch of pieces of the procedure into pieces. So we tested what effect it would actually have and tried out the effects and combinations that we could use.
As a result, he succeeded in adjusting his tennis ball-sized balls to straight flying wind pressure.
Now it's easy for me to punch the grenade quite far away.
Yes, Daisy stayed about a poisonous smokeball, but I made it, a real grenade that explodes.
The ingredients add a little light stone and core of fire. It doesn't have to be fire-attribute magic to explode just to make a good impact.
Likewise, if you use ice demon stones, cold air will erupt, and if it's thunder, bees and sparks will scatter.
As long as we have all the ingredients, we'll be able to reproduce all the offensive magic about the lower levels.
I'm looking for it for an attack this time, so I've only made two kinds: fire and thunder.
"I have ingredients, but I also have a limit on the number of balls I can bring in... for now, is this what it is"
I have to squeeze it to such an extent that I don't find it inconvenient to travel with it. Though I plan to build up some spare on Rem.
Launcher also made a pouch to put balls in and a backpack to take items with him from his shoulder with a sling.
I also have roughly all the gear for myself. And then enough to get in the mood and remodel Rem's main machine?
"To the boulder. Will that be tomorrow?"
If you notice, it's been a long time since anyone's been around.
I'm the only one working overtime at the entrance workshop, and everyone else will just be taking a bath and sleeping.
Totally, our employees don't have any shards of jerkiness, which is really lamentable.
"Peach River, are you still doing this?
The cleanup was there, too, and Yoko stood up, and Mr. Langdo came up with his face.
"It's just over. All you have to do is take a bath and go to bed."
"Tired. Back, flush it for you, okay?
"What, it's okay!?
"Yes, I am."
I accidentally ate it with an instant answer, but it wouldn't be good. Very good, but this is not good.
"I want you to do great, but I'm not going to break the rules"
"It's Commissioner Kazaki. So we're the rules."
"Stop abusing your power."
I didn't give you that much authority. Commissioner Kazaki has a job to do, and it's not his job to make rules. Remember the separation of powers between legislation, justice and administration?
"Corner, I was going to work for you."
"You'll only want to know how you feel."
Really, it just makes me feel so much easier to chat like this. It's too much for you to come all the way out here to see how things are going with me.
Like, who cares?
"Peach River, haven't you been able to?
"Nothing, it's always the same."
It's not a strength. I'm working some overtime, like right now, but I'm getting some sleep, and they're feeding me three proper meals.
"After all, Peach River is setting up an operation and deciding what to do. So I thought it might feel extra responsible or something like that."
"It's okay. Thank you. That's enough for you to say."
"... Something smells like jizz"
Uh, what's not terrible? I'm serious about it.
"Well, we're stupid, so I don't know how far Peach River is thinking"
"Yeah."
"He told me to deny it for a second!
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Because it's true that Mr. Langdo has the lowest level of academic achievement in his class... I only saw him on Red Dot or Mr. Langdo...
But you should have at least denied saying, "That's not true."
In shame, like a punitive game, I'm being grabbed on the cheek and screwed up.
"Anyway, he's a little worried. Don't suddenly fall down."
"This is about it. It's like I'm doing half my hobby."
You're too funny because you have excellent craft skills for The Curse Coaching Formation.
"We're not even that strong, and there's nothing you can do to help."
"That's not true at all. Because Mr. Langdo's abilities are powerful enough to make any kind of tactic."
No, seriously, it's the ability to change the terrain, build a field castle in no time, or imitate anyone else.
"Most of that's just what Peach River taught you."
Because I can't teach Futu.
Without the gift of a heavenly 'earthly sorcerer' and yet of his own, he cannot demonstrate his abilities to this point. Honestly, Mr. Langdon, I think you're the most talented of the sorcerer classes.
"There are other things we can do besides dirt magic."
"... May didn't fire you on lunch duty the other day?
"I'm not a bad doer. But I'll never try him again with cooking."
Mr. Langdon, that's what I did. Was I plainly confident in women's power?
"Hey, Peach River"
Come here for a minute, Mr. Orchido, who just invites you.
When she approached him one step closer, Mr. Langtang looked deliberately, to the right, to the left, looking back, checking his surroundings.
And - I hugged him about me.
"If that bothers you, come to our room."
Yes, I was whispered in my ear, and before I could respond, I felt my lips pressed against my cheeks.
"What, hey!?
Oh, my God, by the time I gave him the dumb return, the embrace had already been lifted.
"Once or so, you'll be fine!
"Hey, what's the one time..."
Does it count in one go no matter how far you go?
"Bye, Peach River, good night"
Scattered, shaking people's hearts, Mr. Langdo smiled like a little devil and went back.
"... Damn, who said anything about no romance?"
A little today, I didn't even seem to sleep with my normal mind.
Mr. Langtang, you're job-changing to your family 'Succubus' or something without knowing it.
Really, what do you want me to do to thrill you by imitating me like this? Do you like me? Do you really like me?
But I'm not going to be wacky to make sure of that. Not until we get out of this dungeon.
So we have to defeat Yamatano Orochi as soon as possible. Even for my lovely romantic experience.
If you notice, nearly a month is about to pass. As for the light shade arrow, I think that's because there's something to be done every day.
I'm sure the Yamatano Orochi crusade I've devised has become a more visible goal for everyone than I imagined. You have to be aware of the day of the showdown that should come at last? Everyone's atmosphere also seemed tight with nature somewhere.
"Finally, I'm ready"
The busyness of the workshop is also overcoming the peak, and we are in the process of having everything we need for the Yamatano Orochi strategy.
The anchor for fixation, which Himeno planned for five years, completed 150 sets.
At first I expected 100 bottles per head, but it's also hard to type in that many, so I converted them to half fifty.
As I envisioned it, the piercing part of the head is a large, returning pile that stretches from the pattern to a pile that punches into the ground and holds it in place. Every bottle is a dish made by hand and refined smelting. It is the crystal of our efforts.
The restraint work needs to be carried out promptly, so the pile has been pre-installed on the ground. In real life, we have to lead him here well and knock him down.
Well, if it's to the stage before we get onto Rock Mountain, I can retry as many times as I want, so I can easily try.
"So feel free to start tomorrow's production..."
"Oh, Kotaro, I was here"
Did you finish cleaning up after, too, Mae showed her face to the entrance workshop?
The last supper, if I say so, is ominous, but well, to the scenery, this evening's food was more luxurious than usual. I also know that Mae used to make a lot of things for this day. Precious sugar is also used at all costs, even prepared for dessert, and is practically a full course.
It was amazing and delicious, welcome. It was worth the effort we all put together to collect the ingredients.
"Are you nervous?
"It's a boulder that puts a lot of other lives at risk this time."
I can feel the weight of responsibility. I mean, I'm not a ruthless, outrageous character who can use someone else. [M] I'm normal, normal, Hutu.
"But I did what I could do. We'll have to believe it later."
"Yeah, I believe Kotaro."
"I believe in May, too. So when you have to..."
"I'll take care of it. I would do anything to help Kotaro, and I could do anything."
Whatever outrage that may be, Mae has as much readiness and action as she can carry it out. That's why I can believe it.
Even if you're going to show your back to cherry blossoms, there's Mae next to me. In case you turn to me to kill him, he'll turn him into two for every light junction.
"Hey, Kotaro. Truth is, I probably shouldn't have said this before the fight..."
"Fine, I'll ask you anything."
I'll talk to you after the fight, because it's a flag. Listen to what you can hear.
"If we fail and there are casualties, let's both run away"
"After all, that's all you have..."
Even with the victims, defeat Yamatano Orochi and I will have fulfilled my responsibilities. But after losing someone, if I fail until the operation, there will be no standing for me.
"If you let the dead out and the operation fails, it's impossible to recover as much as I want."
"It's wrong to push Kotaro-kun only to take responsibility"
"If people die, you can't help it."
It's not a matter of everyone agreeing to the operation, or being unconvinced. Because this is an emotional problem.
And I guess Mae goes out of her way to say this because she knows it will.
"No matter how terrible the consequences, I'm beside you. I'll cut you open the escape route."
"Thanks, it makes me feel better when you say that"
Others would say it sucks, but I feel most grateful for this kind of response.
I don't want anyone to die, even that cherry blossom, and I'm doing my best to do so.
But when that's why I wasn't able to reach you, I'm not going to take that responsibility and cut you to the stomach. I work for everyone, but I forgive you for dying for everyone.
"But it's okay, don't worry."
"I guess so."
"That's right. The class is clustered around the corner."
If this doesn't work, we're probably the only ones who can't win no matter how we scratch. I don't know what to say myself, but I think I've got a better attitude than this.
"It's the only time we can all unleash our power without hesitation. Everyone can fight with hope, this is the first and last time - so be sure to blow up Yamatano Orochi tomorrow."
"- So, what's the story, little birdie?"
"It's enough to call you here on purpose, so it's serious, isn't it?
Intimate meeting room on the fifth floor of the school tower.
There are three of them, the Aoshi brothers and sisters, and the little bird game bird who called the two of them here.
"Yeah......"
I wonder how difficult it is to talk about. A little bird who is the tenacity of the call, but his young expression is full of stray.
"It's okay, because it's definitely just me and Cherry Blossom here. There's no sign that someone's eavesdropping."
"Talk to me, birdie. I'll ask you anything."
The two smile gently at a bird with an anxious attitude like a lost child.
Thus, after some silence, the little bird finally opened its mouth.
"Oh, you know, I really don't think I should mention it at a time like this -"
Tomorrow, it is finally a showdown with Yamatano Orochi.
Morale is high, you nourish your English, and you are ready. Everyone is in the best condition and comes to the showdown to come.
- Takagawa, you're hiding something.
"Well, there's one or two things he can't tell us."
"Yeah, it's that Peach River. At any rate, you must always be thinking about something else."
"No! That's not what I'm saying... I'm hiding some amazing secret so that everyone's life is in danger... I feel that way."
To the desperate little bird's appeal, a smile disappears from the expression of both of us on the boulder.
I don't trust Kotaro Tagawa as a companion from the bottom of my heart.
Cherry blossoms, of course, Yudo, has always treated Kotaro with enough sentiment to monitor him.
"But now I don't think he's going to betray us..."
The resentment that killed Rayna.
But before the mighty boss named Yamatano Orochi, Yudo admits that it was thanks to Kotaro that he put together his class, made an operational plan, got ready and finally came to the showdown.
Kotaro's work so far has never been a lie.
"If Peach River really wanted to fall for us, it would be a little hard to think about doing something with this big one."
Cherry blossoms and Kotaro really have been preparing to defeat Yamatano Orochi, I think.
No matter how evil the ambition, the unspeakable boss monster is nothing more than defeating and overcoming with force. And you can never have that much power over Kotaro personally.
"But! But... I have a bad feeling..."
"Mr. Birdwalk, I know how anxious you feel."
"That's right, relax. The birds have us on them."
"Yeah, thank you, Aemon, cherry blossom...... but I'm sure this unpleasant hunch isn't just about the anxiety of the little bird, but maybe the power of the 'sage' hunches,"
"Is that like waking up to predictive abilities?
"Ugh, yeah, I don't have that great ability at all! I don't think it's prediction or anything like that... but I feel clear that I really don't like it. Peach River said you'd do something. You betrayed us all and said you were up to something wrong..."
"Little bird..."
Nor could the boulder cherry blossoms snort instantly into the words of the little bird.
Cherry blossoms don't believe themselves, Kotaro the least in his current class, and he has the pride of being the most vigilant about him.
But that's why I didn't think I'd suddenly betray my class here and now.
Kotaro's work so far ready for the showdown was real.
"Okay, little birdie."
"Brother, do you believe the story of the little bird"
"I don't think Peach River would betray me here either... but still, this is how Little Bird Play taught me. I'll be very careful."
"I'm sorry Aoshi, I don't have any proof, but all of a sudden I'm saying this... but I'm glad you listened to the little bird."
"Even I don't think it's dangerous to believe in Peach River from the heart. We need to keep a close watch."
"Yeah, right. Don't worry, little bird. Tomorrow's showdown, I'm the same unit as Peach River, so I'll keep an eye out for any odd imitations in the earthen."
"Yeah, cherry blossoms, thank you"
The smile returns to the little bird's face to see if he was finally relieved that he listened to me.
"But, Mr. Birdwalk, let's keep this a secret."
"Well, we'll all be upset to say it at this time to the boulders."
"It's okay. Little birds, because they just believed me, enough."
"Oh, we'll take care of the Peach River."
That way, if you can't even tell a very long story, it was to be dissolved.
A little bird leaves the intimate room first and returns to his room.
Later the remaining Aoshi brothers and sisters opened their mouths without either.
"Brother, what do you think"
"Thanks again, I told Mr. Bird Play."
I don't think Kotaro will betray you here and now, but he won't just fail to be vigilant with advice.
Think realistically, that's the only thing you can do.
"Right..."
"What about cherry blossoms?"
"Of course that makes you nervous."
If you say this the night before the showdown, you're set to be upset. Well, the opponent is Kotaro, who has always suspected.
"Let me tell you something, tomorrow you're gonna have to do what you do."
"I know. Because the lives of all are at stake… I will surely try to destroy the core"
There are no changes to Kotaro's Yamatano Orochi crusade.
It's an operation that unites the class and has always been prepared. Now, I can't change it, and I don't even think about changing it.
I decided to be ready - but there was definitely one point of doubt left in their minds.
