About a month passed since the night Jin was swept away by the emotions of an 18-year-old young man for a long time.
By this time, Oswald's post-war assessment of Zinn has also settled, and no one sees him as just a leader by name anymore. The "Feerendunk" he leads is recognised as one of the most powerful parties in the city of Lienz, although it is C-ranked.
That's one of the reasons they dive to the deepest level of labyrinth exploration. Of course, it goes without saying that it is thanks to the "map" that Jin possesses, but at the same time he also gained strength with no problems diving to the deep hierarchy.
Although they had not yet reached level 30, the B-rank criterion, they had all grown to just under level 30 by efficient combat in the labyrinth. That was accompanied by a good increase in the various skill levels, especially in melee skills. That is not only the battle experience in the labyrinth, but also the influence of Oswald, who became the guild's temporary special instructor. Beside his labyrinth exploration, he kept an archery on this and on the prospects.
Based on a simulated battle in action, that archery can cost you your life if you do it poorly. Especially as the strength increases, so does Oswald.
But that is why the benefits to be received were enormous.
Early that morning, too, there was the sound of a sword trident in the guild's practice area.
"Huh. You're really starting to do it, Jin!
"Eh! Not yet! Not yet! Yes!"
I can still feel some room in Oswald, but the opposite gin looks full.
But the weapons they use today are both for iron training. Even though Jin doesn't have the advantage of "Wooden Sword," he's crossing over to his A-rank opponent. It doesn't even go as far as mutual, but I could still see an obvious improvement (skill development) compared to the first simulation.
"It's time!
So the meeting lasted for a while, but once the audition is over with Elsa's signal. I was more tired because I was concentrating, but I suppressed my desire to sit on the spot, and Jin put his sword away and thanked Oswald.
"Thank you!
Oswald nodded with a satisfactory smile to Jin, who corrected his posture exactly and lowered his head.
"You've improved."
Oswald did it with this one word, but if it's true, that's not all we need to talk about. Compared to the actual battle, where life was still at stake, skill growth is moderate in normal training and so on. It can be said how much gin is doing while in action, but still an obviously unusual rate of growth.
I have said this several times before, thanks to the "Talent of the Martial Arts", which changed from MAX levels when Jin was reincarnated, but only three of the Arias "Feerendunk" know that fact.
An unusually extreme sight from the side. But there was no one around Jin who cared more about it now.
"Then after a five-minute break, now you're Elsa. The next aria was standing and watching, and Jade and Rachel were battled (yah) in turn with Jin. You know, but don't be shy of Jin (this guy). Do your best."
"" "" Yes!
Everyone responds positively to Oswald's instructions. Everyone in this room was only thinking about making the most of their chances of being coached by an active A-rank.
Then a few hours later, Jin and the others finished the training they had been doing since the early morning. I say goodbye here to Oswald for a day as a temporary instructor.
By the way, Oswald plans to coach avant-garde members of The Wind Seeker after this, starting with the gain he took care of in the beginner's course, but on another day Sherry and Albert, synchronizing Jin and Rachel, were also coaching. With more than one other coach, Oswald doesn't have as much time to do his adventurers' activities. But for him, who has focused on mentoring juniors after his fellow retirement, the current situation is what he wants. The reason I came to Lienz in the first place is also because I want to help the young adventurers who challenge the labyrinth. In fact, I had done something similar before I came to Lienz, and Jade, who came to this city with me in love with Oswald's manhood, was one of those people who had been mentored that way in the past.
This time he was Jade who attended the training, but he usually organizes temporary parties to explore the labyrinth. It is Oswald's secret wish that he be able to find his own people in this city.
Only a small part of the adventurers in Lienz were mentoring Oswald in these trainings, but since the simulation of Jin and Oswald about a month ago, there have been quite a few more adventurers in the city of Lienz investing in daily training.
Even before Oswald arrived, it was possible to get former A-ranked instructors such as Greg and Melinda to take care of the archery, if that bothered them. That was probably due to the stereotype that "training is done by beginners who have not acquired the skills they want".
In fact, in terms of efficiency, it is also true that actual combat is more effective in improving skills. However, even if it is marginal, the advantages of training that encourage skills to grow relatively safely cannot be denied.
Slowly, however, the ability of the adventurers in Lienz was being improved.
After the training, the gently sweaty Jins headed to the labyrinth.
Most of the adventurers temporarily just put themselves in the labyrinth and received few guild requests, which was a problem, but they've been a lot calmer here for a while. However, at the level, it is time to see the B-rank promotion, and Jin and the others have not changed the allocation of guild requests and labyrinth exploration by half in order to ensure that one of the conditions is the number of requests fulfilled. Of course, there is also a reason to call it a basic policy for them: the "nature of the adventurer".
The pace was slow for not being dedicated to exploring the labyrinth, but they were still growing at a different pace from the rest of the adventurers.
"No, it went well today."
Arm behind your head and Elsa opens her mouth in an upbeat mood.
After completing their labyrinth exploration a little early, Jin and the others were walking through a city that was gradually dyeing red.
"Right. I'm glad to see that you're getting stronger."
Rachel laughing happily, as the word goes, is certainly adorable, but what she's talking about is exorcism, so come on, it's noisy. But that was something that we all realized throughout our training with Oswald and our daily battles.
"Magic skills are the only stretch compared, but stability in melee isn't what it used to be."
Yes, as Aria says, Aria and Rachel in the rear guard now have as much strength as they can do as avant-garde, so much so that their ability as avant-garde alone outranks the lined C-ranks.
"Yeah. I don't mean to alarm you, but you don't feel like losing in the current hierarchy"
That kind of Elsa showed the best growth in the past month. She had worked harder as an avant-garde than her ex, but besides training with Oswald, she had mock fights with Jin almost every day. That would be because he deplored his own lack of strength against Aria, who had the rare skills of 'shortening chants', Rachel, who had 'protection', and Jin, who could be considered out of standard. And that heart that wouldn't give up made her grow above all else.
Elsa is also raised to Jin as Jin's strength was raised by Oswald, which also leads to more advanced training with Oswald. That repetition blossomed her talent.
Of course we haven't reached the stage where we can cross with Oswald like Jin, but Elsa still has the strength to beat those B-ranks as an avant-garde today.
…………
"? What's wrong? Mr. Jin."
The usual gin would either smile and watch or join the conversation, but now it looks like it's boggling in the sky somewhere up there. I was curious. Rachel spoke to Jin.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I was just thinking."
Jin, smiling about nothing, was just remembering talking to Oswald and Greg about the labyrinth a few days ago.
"The labyrinth in this city is less challenging" - the fact Oswald told me is convincing for Jin as well.
It is exceptionally easy to travel and explore thanks to the transfer gates that exist on every tenth floor, and it can be said that there are various types of warcraft that emerge, such as proximity and distance, so far only two types of goblins and oaks.
The oak, which began to emerge after crossing the twentieth floor of the labyrinth, is certainly the same people-type and the means of attack are almost unchanged, although it has become stronger than goblins. Fewer types of enemies can also mean fewer attack patterns for the opponent, so fighting is also an easier element.
By the way, there are several types of dungeons, but in terms of difficulty, they are considered in the order of relic type > natural type > labyrinth type.
However, the fact that it is less difficult is not a bad thing. That makes exploration so much easier, and hence leads to the prevention of mass occurrences of warcraft, you shouldn't even have to worry about it.... but something was caught in Jin's heart.
"(No, it's a mystery what a naturally occurring (...) labyrinth is in the first place, so I can't help thinking about it)"
Jin shakes his head gently and shakes off the extra thought, continuing and opening his mouth.
"Yeah. We're getting stronger, as we all say, and I think it's a fact that we can afford the hierarchy right now. But according to Mr. Oswald and the others, some of these days there will be stronger warcraft and traps that have never existed before, so let's not be alarmed.... Needless to say, we all know that."
At the end of the day, Jin summarizes while laughing bitterly. I'm not going to give you any water, but as a leader, I have to tell you this.
"" Copy that. ""
I'm sure Aria and the others know what's going on around there. Each one answers with a grin.
That's true when it comes to sights as usual, but their smiles dazzled me as to why Jin had them.
"Well, that's the thing..."
Aria and the others laughed deeply at Jin, who scratched her head in the light.
Jin, who then broke up with Aria and the others along the way, was on his way to the "Gardin Chamber of Commerce" before returning home.
I wanted to refill miso and soy sauce, and I haven't seen Iris in a while, so I'm in a good mood for a visit. The miso and soy sauce have been confirmed to arrive around today, so there are no drains. Souvenirs for Iris when he's not in the store are also available for "Unlimited Storage".
"Konko............... what's wrong?
What Jin, who entered the store, saw was the figure of Olt, Iris' father, who looked worried about something with his arms around him.
And after these two days, Jin and the others will go for the Iris family and the Wang Capital.
