My 【Repair】Skill Became an Almighty Cheat Skill, So I Thought I’d Open Up a Weapon Shop
Episode 258: Let's Talk Ahead Part One
Then me and Garnett decided to go back to the ground after the ex-post processing and get some rest at the White Wolf store, which is our home.
Lie back on the couch and open the notebook with a breath.
I wrote down what Travis and the others had verbally heard about the evolution of the battle after destroying the floor and leaving the front.
- A giant doll just for the upper body, born with a collection of doll-shaped golems.
Exactly what I assumed.
The earthly shape of the Demon General Vestri and the doll-shaped golem underground.
If these are in relation to the prototype (original) and counterfeit counterfeits, it is not surprising that there is something equivalent to the giant earthly shape that Vestri was creating.
Well, I just want to be careful not to get to that idea because I couldn't even fit into that scene, but I'm just not dressed up for prestige that it was still readable later.
"Look, I'm brewing it"
"Thanks."
Take a sip of the cold herbal tea Garnett prepared for you and turn the notebook page.
The contents of the next page relate to the future exploration plan Travis was talking about.
"In the end, what's going to happen to the continuation of the exploration?
Garnett sat next to me trying to screw her body into the gap on the couch, and she rode herself out and peeked into the notebook.
A luxurious, soft shoulder pushed my arm away, and my blonde hair just finished bathing swayed saggily at the tip of her eyes and nose.
I tried to slip away from sitting in a subtle position so as not to be too closely attached, but for some reason Garnett drifts sideways to chase it and ends up at no different distance from each other.
"It's close. Look, there's nothing to hide."
Give up on distance and tilt the notebook in the same position to make it easier to read from the garnet.
- Travis said the massive exploration behind the area where the doll-shaped golem emerged was meant to be temporarily frozen for a moment.
He can't deny the possibility that there will be a Demon King's Army ahead of him either, but he couldn't ignore the risk of encountering any more unexplained forces and decided that there was a great deal of danger as it now stands.
"You mean you don't look deeper than that?
"No, they're just going to work with the Knights or look into it with only a few elites of high rank, just not exploring it in the current policy of mobilizing middle- and low-rank either. Well... that would be a reasonable decision"
The underground forces that Demon King Gandalf called true enemies have at least enough power to outperform Demon King's army.
Even that bunch of puppet-shaped golems that made us struggle could be just one of those mass-produced wars if we were bad.
"In essence, though, I just had a quicker appointment. Originally, we had to explore the underground labyrinth with man-made sea tactics, so we just mobilized the middle and lower ranks, and once we grabbed the tail of the Demon King's Army, we were going to switch to a few elites."
There's no way a veteran like Travis wouldn't assume the neighborhood.
The same is true of the Demon King's Army, which is at stake if you encounter a young man with you.
It can be said that the search freeze is not an unexpected occurrence and is part of the search flow as planned.
"Huh. Adventurers are having a tough time. You can't just dive all you want at a party and turn back appropriately."
"A less challenging dungeon can still do enough."
If it's a dungeon up to roughly C rank, a prudent response, like this one, is rather excessive.
Just make a decision on a party-by-party basis and explore (attack) freely.
"But this time, it's not officially ranked, but considering the potential threat, it's at least a B-rank... bad, it's a A-rank dungeon equivalent."
"So Travis had to be cautious, too."
Garnett put his legs together on the couch, doing his hand behind his head and keeping his weight on his back.
"Well, I don't care if you're okay later. For now, we're done cooperating with Travis, right?
"Not this time. He promised to cooperate if he needed my help, so he fixed the collapse as requested. Next time you dive, you'll need [restoration] again, or if Theodore asks you to do it again."
"Uh... well, there was that one, too"
As soon as he heard Theodore's name, Garnett suddenly glanced at him.
"Damn, I don't know what to do... I can't keep up with you..."
…… What's wrong with you?
"Thank you very much. I told you before, didn't I? Theodore and I may still have met around (...) a (...) r (...) ma (...) and (...) a (...)"
"Oh, speaking of which,"
Theodore is an adventurer with the alias Dragonslayer, as well as the son of a high-ranking noble Beaufort family serving as border guard.
Garnett as a child has experience in attending greetings to the Beaufort family as the 'daughter' of the Silver Wings Knights lineage, and he is remembered by Theodore for his face and name at that time - he may be.
I'm only talking about possibilities, but it's a risk that can't be ignored for Garnett who wants to hide who he is.
"Then why don't you go to Theodore's next time and ask him if he's ready? Of course it's just me. I'll ask him if he remembers the Argentinian daughter."
"I'm a little nervous about letting you go alone, but there's something I can get you to explore. But can you ask me trifles or something?
"Of course you can. You've decided. I have just the right excuse."
Garnett tilting her neck strangely.
Apparently, I'm serious, and I don't have an idea of an excuse to bring that topic to Theodore.
"It's about the other night's club. To make sure I got into the Count's night club, I asked him to write me a letter of introduction as Uncle Borderline's son. Well, then it's only natural to report the results, right?
"Well, that's right... wait a minute. What exactly does reporting results mean?"
"You're supposed to be involved in an engagement with Miss Alma Argentia."
When I explained the obvious again, Garnett squatted (groaning) with his head in his arms while sitting on the couch and began to move his legs so that he could bark.
