Kono Sekai ga Game da to, Ore dake ga Shitte Iru

Chapter 29: The Story of the Ring

The man who gave me advice on weapons was an adventurer named Craggs.

But I didn't know that.

No, I know, Mr. Craggs isn't bad.

But I want you to leave me alone.

Only now, I want you to stay calm.

"... ha"

I flagged him as a skinhead adventurer in exchange for great shame, and then when I placed the same order with the real store owner to finish the shittiness and accounting, I left the store to run away.

"It's late, Mr. Soma!

It was just after that that I was able to rendezvous with Ena, who was supposed to have been on my way earlier.

Ena, finally reunited, seemed a little muddled, though not so angry.

"Mr. Soma, I'm not looking anywhere...

You almost made it back to the moor of the Magic Seal ship again!

"Ah, oh. That's bad.

So, did you sell the item?

"It's already been tough over there!?

According to Ena, who seems somewhere happy for the tone, this is the thing.

Anything. After going around each store and asking about the buyout price, Ena was apparently negotiating around to buy me a little higher.

Having social skills in my habits is a rare talent.

"And as a result...... what a 76000E!

"Ooh!

To be honest, I'm not sure if it's a lot or less, but for once I'm surprised.

No, but I still feel more expensive than I expected.

The drop item should have been about 20 at most, so it would have come with a value of about 4000E per item.

"Oh, you know, you said you didn't have the gear you wanted, so I sold all but the sidelines, but you're okay, right?

"Hmm? Oh, sure."

I nodded without hesitation.

Armor knights are basically heavy-duty, so most of the equipment they dropped was heavy duty protective equipment, etc.

Its defense was appealing, but when the equipment weighs heavier, it also slows down movement.

The speed drop due to weight depends on your skills as well, so there is little way out.

Given the current style of combat between me and Ena, I just had to give up.

"Good. Then when it comes to separating this between us, it's 38000E per person!

And he seems willing to split it it into mountains after all.

Ena brought it by herself at her own risk, so I think she can have it alone.

It's just that no one will be happy when I see you here.

Rather personally, Ena seems more than happy to receive it.

"Then, please."

When I give you my wallet replacement crystal,

"Then I'll transfer it!

Ena hits her own crystal there and the magic moves.

38000E was transferred to my crystal.

Finally they also asked me if I wanted to return my misrill gear, but I said no to that.

"No, I was wondering if I could get you to make some money in The Trial Cave again soon.

If you don't put some good protective gear on then, we'll be in trouble. "

"Really?

Of course, it's a lie.

But it might be a good idea to make money from The Trial Cave.

Even if you split your earnings, you'll make enough money for Ena.

I went to the accessory store to discuss that with my wife.

When I say accessory shop, it kind of sounds like a store where girls middle and high school kids are going to be happy, but of course accessories in this world are the ornaments they put on their necks, wrists, fingers and, naturally, they all serve to improve the character's abilities as gear.

It can be said that one effect at a time is small compared to armor, etc., but its correction is still not insulting because it can be equipped with up to two at a time for the neck and wrist and a total of four at the finger.

Besides, the equipment can no longer be changed from the menu screen as in the game, so it takes time to replace armor and other protective equipment.

If it's a reverse ring, it's easy to change clothes, so it's easy to change attributes or something to suit your enemies.

Doesn't seem like it would ever hurt to have it.

The lineup is still the same as it was in the game.

Because it's an item in the first town, or nothing that works that well.

Most things have a resting effect, such as a ring that increases its defense by just a little bit, a ring that increases its Attack by 5%, and a ring that allows you to use elementary attribute magic, which increases HP's natural resilience by about 20%.

But that's why there's still a specialty, too.

(I would also use ninja knives in the future, so I figured this area would be an iron plate)

In it, I took "Ring I of Light Attack Specialization".

This ring, while a store seller at the beginning, has the breaking effect of reducing the attack power of Dark Attributes by 70% instead of increasing the attack power of Light Attributes by 15%.

Incidentally, "I" is naturally a testament to the series of products, and whenever the numbers increase with II, III, and IV, it seems to increase the performance of light attribute attack by 60%, dark attribute attack by 40%, and much easier to use.

Well, I don't sell it in the store until IV, and naturally I don't plan on using it.

I will not hesitate to keep "Ring I of Light Attack Specialization".

I don't know what I need right now because I don't remember the attribute moves yet, but I'm sure it will help later.

(Thinking about it, don't you need a ring for a while before you say what the attributes are...)

I'm not going to take off the stamina ring I'm wearing for a while.

You can only equip up to two rings, so no more... is that it?

I was just wondering, I stopped by Ena and asked in a whisper.

"Hey. What happens when you wear more than three rings?

"Yes?"

Would that have been such a strange question?

Ena turned her eyes round,

"Um, you can only wear up to two rings, right?

And I've returned less of an answer.

No, well, I know that.

"I don't know, I don't know what would happen if I tried to get more than that."

"Huh? Um, you can only wear up to two rings, right?

... I don't know.

Suddenly, Ena became like a bad NPC.

But I wonder what it actually is.

In the game, the gear was going from the menu screen, so I could only wear it for the frames of the gear.

But in this world where I can wear gear with my own hands, I feel like I can ignore such restrictions.

(Well, can I try it myself)

I said no to the clerk, took the "Water Ring" and put it on my finger.

"... that?

As soon as I put the ring close to my finger, I thought the incredible force would work and the ring would be played... or something, but that didn't happen at all.

The third ring lightly got stuck in my finger.

Too light to clap the other way around.

"Something's gotten me fitted normally..."

When you say that and show Ena your fingers,

"Hey, what are you doing, Mr. Soma!

I was terribly surprised.

On the contrary, I am almost outraged.

"You can only fit up to two rings!

And even if they say so, they're actually getting laid.

What the hell, this.

However, it is conceivable that even if it is fitted, it is not effective.

"Uh, water"

Turn to the floor and order the magic of 'Water'.

"Ugh?!

Then the water drifted toward the ground.

It hits the ground hard,

"Hey, hey customer!

Don't wet the floor!

The floor of the store was wet.

That didn't happen in the game world, but it seems that using water magic in this world leaves water.

It didn't feel like it was damaged when I touched the remaining water, so it doesn't seem like it's an 'attack' anymore, but it's hard anyway.

It's mainly hard to clean what's bothering you.

And the clerk's sharp gaze sucks.

I wanted you to stop doing these halfway real specifications.

(But anyway, that means the ring is working)

But this alone is also considered to be the only other ring that is losing its effect instead.

I took "Fire's Ring" and "Wind's Ring" and told the clerk.

"Excuse me, let me give this a try, too.

Oh, because magic shoots outside. "

Then after various experiments, I found that I could apparently put a ring on all ten fingers of both hands one at a time, reflecting all their effects.

They just can't put two rings on the same finger on a boulder.

When I put the ring through my finger, it automatically fits the size and wears naturally, but when I tried to put the second ring through the same finger, the first ring came off instead of the second one fitting.

Strange or a bit too convenient a development for me, but I made the reasoning that this was the result of a collision between the 'game' setting of 'rings can only fit up to two' and the 'real' common sense of 'rings can fit as many as you want'.

Given the past, it seems that setting up some games like events may manipulate people's behavior, not the laws of physics in this world, etc.

So that Reinhardt somehow wants to show me around town, so that Ena somehow wants to run around on the same field as me, I wonder if humans in this world somehow no longer want to be equipped with a third ring.

First, if you try to put another ring on the same finger, the ring switches to the same specifications as the game.

However, it can be deduced that trying to wear a third ring could not have been done in the game, but in fact it could have been done sufficiently, resulting in people's consciousness being imprinted with the fact that 'you cannot wear a third ring' to match the tsuji around it.

I don't know if this idea is right, but it is, well, originally a world full of holes and contradictions.

That's what I decided to force myself to convince.

But when that happens, it is the humans who want to try more things.

"Is Ena wearing a ring?

When I asked, she immediately offered me her left hand in front of me.

"Ah, yes. This is it."

On his left hand, he was properly fitted with two rings.

"What's this?

Even me on the boulder doesn't play this game enough to know the name of the item just by looking at the shape of the ring.

Ena answered my question without a heart or a chest.

"This is a defensive boost ring I bought here, but the other one is not for sale, and it cuts the damage of a magic attack by 30%."

"Heh..."

Boulder train, honey.

It was pretty well equipped for the town at the beginning.

"This is the shape of your father...

Your father died when I was little, and he almost disposed of the artifact, but your mother left me a ring... "

And boulder train.

There were no leaks and heavy stories on there.

"Well, let's try it.

Why don't you put on another ring?

It could even start with Train's memorabilia event as it is.

I rushed to whisper Ena's words and suggested so.

"Huh? So, but only up to two rings..."

"Fine, fine.

Maybe we can do it, right?

Forcefully push through the reluctant ena.

"Look, this is part of the experiment, too.

You said you'd cooperate.

"That's, yes.

So, but this... ah "

Ena looking reluctant, but staring at her left hand with the ring on it,

"Ya, I'll do it. Do it!

You suddenly decided to be ready, you offered me your left hand.

I don't know what kind of mood change it is, but I'd appreciate your cooperation.

I took the same defensive ring she bought and put it close to her left hand,

(... ah)

I noticed.

Ena has a ring on her left index finger and middle finger.

If that happens, the next thing you need to fit in is your finger...

(This is not good)

In this world, too, there must have been a custom like wearing a wedding ring on the left hand pharmacopoeia.

Feeling a tiny pain in the word marriage, I subtly move the ring toward her pinky finger...

- Sssh.

As soon as I tried to put it on, Ena's hand moved to the side.

The ring was moving in front of the pharmacopoeia.

What, it's a coincidence?

Again, I tried to put a ring on Ena's pinky finger.

- Sssh.

It wasn't a coincidence!

Ena's hand was clearly aiming. She was showing movement and guiding the ring to her pharmacopoeia.

"Um, come on, can you?

I wonder why.

From Ena, I feel unprecedented power.

(Well, I'm asking for you, and I can't help it, can I?

It's not like I lost, but I put a ring on her pharmacopoeia.

The ring was fitted perfectly to Ena's pharmacopoeia and fitted there as if it had been attached.

Yes, no, this is a magical effect on the ring, and it shouldn't make any particular sense.

"Look, look, even the third one was fine."

I hid my inner agitation and deliberately said so pretending I didn't notice anything.

But Ena is silent.

It's just that after a while, it's like I was putting up with holding my breath.

"Also, I can't do it anymore!

I knew it wouldn't calm me down!

I hurriedly pulled out the ring that got stuck in my finger.

... but not the middle finger ring I put on.

And without getting your hair in between,

"Sorry, I'll buy this!

Accounting, please!

"No, hey...!

Tell the clerk to buy the ring.

In the early days of the electric optical stone fire, there was no gap for me to stop.

Take a glimpse of the ring stuck in your pharmacopoeia,

"You know, when you do this, it kind of looks like we're, like, engaged, right?

"No, stop!

I'm gonna make a hell of a statement.

My words are no longer words.

I didn't think he was the one to mention this.

But when he saw me in a hurry, Ena laughed.

Wave gently in the wind that it's all a lie.

"Oh, my God, it's a joke, a joke.

I haven't even thought about it yet. "

So how far do you think?

Rarely flirting with me, she stroked the ring gently, saying, as she quickly accounted for it.

"But 'marriage', hey, don't you admire it?

I don't know what to say...

"- No, I don't admire it at all.

I will never marry in this world. "

Strong, strong, returned words of denial.

- 'Marriage' system.

That's one of the big sells of 'Cat Ear Cat' that gave up the MMO route, and at the same time, it's the biggest pitfall of this game, like Lizardman or Train or something out of comparison.
