Second Story Online: Aiming To Become The World’s Number 1. Ideal Witch

22 · If you can't sell things, you can go somewhere you can sell them

It's been a week since the second-period players started the game today. I also have a week of SSO history with this.

[Dusk Forest] has grown before and the number of players has increased. You guys are already in such a level band...... no. Is my game progressing rather slowly? Well, so is that. This still gives priority to the real one, so the playing time of the day may be less than for other players.

Now more than that, rumors say [Dusk Forest] progress isn't very good. Apparently, the first group was also burning their hands on the offense here.

Even now that we have all the information, it seems that the reason for this is because we get lost in the forest. There have been many reports that the forest maps came out by the time they were completed, and players have been told that the rate of exploration of the forest maps is a condition that allows them to escape through the forest.

They said some of them were able to get out even if they weren't up at all, but the guy must have been lucky. Items that increase your exploration rate efficiently seem to be a must as a solid tactic.

Well, I don't need an item like that because I have a 100% exploration rate from the start so I can afford it. [Gazetteer] It looks like it.

With that happening, the [Dusk Forest] entrance camp is still busy. Potions and the like are supplied stably. The price seems to have stabilized. It doesn't seem to change that this place is cheap though.

Yeah, speaking of which, besides the health recovery potion, I also saw the MP recovery potion. I want to make this MP recovery potion because as a witch who uses magic, I care more about MP than my health. I can't find the magic grass that seems to be the key ingredient though it can be made at the current [formulation] level.

Are they dispersed in weeds that can be taken at the forest entrance? Or are you not growing up without going a little further behind the woods? Maybe it is. MP recovery potions were more expensive and sold, so I consider them more difficult to harvest than medicinal herbs.

The following actions have been decided: Go to the back of [Dusk Forest] and look for Magic Grass. Now that players are in the woods, fewer enemy monsters are defeated than usual. Plus, we've got new gear, so I don't think it's easy to beat being attacked.

That's when I thought I was walking towards the forest entrance. I can smell the meat baking from somewhere very good.

"Ah, Nil! Wait."

Nil, sleeping on his shoulder, flies away. One stall in that direction. You look very familiar.

"Hmm, what? Where did you come from... No, could it be Nil?... I knew it. Hello, little lady."

My uncle, who was baking meat in the street, smiled and greeted me when he found me.

"Hi, I didn't think you were opening a store like this."

"Oops. Looks like this one sells better than the city."

"How's it selling, by the way?

"Thanks to you, Dusk Forest is a pretty good seller."

While we were having that conversation, customers came and my uncle's meat skewers sold. In this game, where you do have to eat, food alongside potions will be what the players need. On a good note, there were also more stores selling food. I also discovered Sandwich's sister's shop.... I see.

"By the way, do you want to buy your daughter too?

"Um, yeah..."

I'm going to change my mind and think about it again. I am still a regular at this store. So it's bad for my uncle today, but I'm going to go buy some other food.

I thought... I could see Nil looking at Jee and the meat being burned in my eyes like that. And I'm going to turn around and look at this one with a would-be eye that's just asking me to buy it.

What are those eyes? Where are your usual sharp but sleepy eyes? I won't buy it. All first meat is bad for your health. So, I won't buy it. I won't buy it... so...

"............... Right, about six, please"

"Every time!

So only this time to spoil it too......

It's still very dark to say that it's daytime in the woods. But it's hard to say it's complete darkness, with a little wood leakage. Is this state enough for dark magic to impose a slight limit?

If you're going to be completely powerful, it's still the middle of the night. However, if you try to target the [moonlight] effect as the moonlight is a little blocked here, you should fight in the open place.

But right now during the day, there's not much in the way when it comes to fighting. A spider-shaped monster I just met walking in the woods.

The monster named [Twilight Spider] has spat out yarn and launched an attack when he found me. Rounded yarn balls like bullets can interfere with movement due to the [restraint] effect when hit. But it won't hit me.

"[Windshield]!

Wind magic should be activated fast. Because I can react to aggressive attacks. This magic is defensive magic, as the name suggests. You can add a shield of wind to the target that will receive a projectile attack. Effective time five seconds. Due to the wind shield unfolding around me, the spider unleashed thread balls fly in a different direction.

I almost hit the nil I was on the side of. I'm glad you managed to avoid it.

… This shield does not disable the attack simply by passing it through the wind. So it is also possible that the yarn balls that went in another direction, like now, will hit someone. You have to be very careful with your use during party play.

Now when the spider finds out the shooting attack isn't working, he's going to launch a direct attack. Eating a spider's direct attack can result in a poisonous state. I'm resistant so the poison is fine but I'm usually afraid of aggression. Ni, about three shots would be fine, but I'm worried, so I'll have Nil do a [dark mist].

Chant [Shadow Arrow] as the spider deprived of vision is turning right and left. The [Dark] effect of [Dark Mist] is five seconds. The chanting time of [Shadow Arrow] is also five seconds, so it puts in magic at the same time as the spider's vision recovers. Is the damage about 70%? Scrape the rest of your HP with [Windcutter].

"Hoo......"

This is how I fought solo and found out that Mr. Kyle's presence was huge. There's a shield in front of me that's attracting enemy attacks. In the meantime, it's easy to end the chant. You have to create an environment where you can chant first if it's solo. Except if you've been waiting for magic from the beginning, but that's not possible first in a fight that happens suddenly, like now. Always wait for magic or something. MP runs out first.

And this time it was helpful to have just one. It would be harder if there were more than one. That's all I have players around right now, so I guess the number of enemy monsters in the woods is also low.

So this is how I was able to get to the back of the forest. The forest itself is quite large, but the major places like the ones with players are quite narrow.

Immediately after this forest, we could also find an exit leading to the [Iru Mine]. I didn't expect to find such a light exit that everyone wouldn't stop looking... From there, he came back to the back of the woods and met the spider where he tried to find the magic grass.

The battle is over, so let's do a magic grass hunt.... I found Magic Grass without any particular obstacles. Plant with blue colour, tastefully close to lamb. Eating restored about a trace amount of magic consumed in earlier battles.

I can't believe it tastes like lamb from grass...... strange. But it's not bad because it tastes like lamb. It was when I was eating mushamsha and grass with an occasional snack feel while collecting it that way.

"- I was surprised. What kind of person..."

I could hear the noise and the voices of people tearing apart the clams and the grass. A quartet that apparently feels like a party currently attacking the woods.

"Oh, you're so lucky to see people again today"

Lucky for us, nothing. People are flooding back into the [dusk forest] right now. Well, this is role-play, so there's no way Chloe herself knows what's going on in real life. No, roleplay is important, too, but I had something to do. Swallow the magic grass you were eating and smile as you look at someone who looks like a leader.

"Apparently we were fighting demons...... are you ready for the potion? I'll sell you the recovery potion."

You can't sell potions at the entrance? Then you should sell it in the woods. That's why I decided to sell potions in the woods. Mobile sales are good. It sells pretty good, especially if you're in the middle of the woods. It's just a few more roads and the potion runs out... for an under-prepared party.

That's why the party in front of me seemed like those people and I was happy to buy it. It will disappear into the back of the woods again as it is.... Oh, that's not the way out. But I guess they don't get it. I don't even have an in-laws to teach.

Well, we still have it in stock. Let's sell it out as much as we can.

589://Second Mr. Without

Hold enough potion. You can buy a lot because it's cheap right now at the entrance camp.

590://Second Mr. Without

I just wiped it all out, so I ran out of money just for the equipment repair... I'll give up the offense already today......

591://Second Mr. Without

> 589 Because I'm going to run out unexpectedly......

600://Second Mr. Without

Ahhhhhh!!!! PK Player Not Dead Hey Yep!!

601://Second Mr. Without

> 600 What's up!?

602://Second Mr. Without

They said it was almost the exit! Whoa, whoa, whoa!!

603://Second Mr. Without

> 602 threesome? Or the quintessential?

604://Second Mr. Without

> 603 The Pentagon...... damn......

605://Second Mr. Without

> 604 Uh, that way or not.

608://Second Mr. Without

PK report again? Not much?

609://Second Mr. Without

> 608 Looks like about two or three pairs of PK parties are in the woods.

610://Second Mr. Without

Yabe, I'll be careful.

611://Second Mr. Without

Tragedy in the harbor again...... or are you still PK even though you were crusading there?

612://Second Mr. Without

> 611PK is gone. I guess the PK reports will increase again because I think we still have the guys we saw in the fishing village.

615://Second Mr. Without

I want to just get out of the woods because I'm scared of PK or something. I don't like the dim spot anymore.

617://Second Mr. Without

> 615 The next Ilu mine is dark too, huh?

618://Second Mr. Without

> 617 It's still sparkling and beautiful over there. Isn't the dusk forest just dark?

620://Second Mr. Without

Did you break through the woods in Phase II?

621://Second Mr. Without

There they are. I'm guessing they're all still exploring the woods.

622://Second Mr. Without

We just got out of the woods!

623://Second Mr. Without

> 622 Seriously!

624://Second Mr. Without

> 622 Tell me how much you increased your forest exploration rate for reference.

625://Second Mr. Without

> 624 Exploration rate is about 50%. I think maybe I got out because I heard the way this time.

626://Second Mr. Without

> 625 Heard the Way? Did they even show you the way in the first period?

627://Second Mr. Without

I'm taking money for directions. I saw the first issue and thought I'd show you around...

628://Second Mr. Without

> 626 Someone who was selling potions in the woods told me.

630://Second Mr. Without

> 628 Eh, you didn't tell me when I did.

631://Second Mr. Without

> Bought 630 potions? Maybe if you haven't bought it, you won't tell me.

633://Second Mr. Without

> I bought 631. I didn't ask you to show me the way. If you know, you can tell me.

634://Second Mr. Without

> 633 I haven't heard the way either. But you told me when you left, why?

635://Second Mr. Without

Didn't you have a different player in the potion sale?

636://Second Mr. Without

> 635 The person who told me was a witchy person.

637://Second Mr. Without

> 636 Same person. Why didn't you tell me?

639://Second Mr. Without

Whimsical, you preferred the character of the guy you told me about, didn't you?

640://Second Mr. Without

> 639 Did any of the party members care? I was alone in the woods, so the witch there felt like what she was doing and I just normally called her...

641://Second Mr. Without

> 640 NPC or a role player would change my behavior on terms of response or something. Maybe you didn't know what to do to teach me.

642://Second Mr. Without

> 641 Really? Well, whatever it is, I don't care why because I was able to get through the woods because of that person.
