My grandfather told me to be Seeker, a seeker no one can beat. This is more about my future than just keep going up there.
In short, don't do anything but a fight you can definitely win.
Sweet for my grandfather's words, it's one way to keep choosing safety measures at all times. But I want to be the most powerful Seeker, like my grandfather, no less than my grandfather. Because I believe that's the way to give back to my late grandfather.
So the question is, what do you define as the strongest? That you won't lose no matter who you fight, this will definitely be the strongest. But that's impossible. There's always something about compatibility in battle. There is no such thing as the power to deal with all enemies.
Battle-based functions (jobs) of the universal All Rounder also exist, but they are far from being easily instrumentally poor and most powerful. The closest thing to an ideal system would be a stable warrior with both offenses. But my grandfather, who was the EX rank at its apex, also had limitations.
Not to mention that among all combat functions (jobs), an individual's ability to fight is world-class. It is absolutely impossible, for example, to strive for the strongest in the individual.
So what do I do? The answer is fixed.
"You just have to create the strongest clan and be its master"
A clan is an organization that brings together multiple Seekers to form. Simply put, it would mean the top version of the party.
In the first place, it is wrong in itself to aim for the strongest in the individual. What is man's greatest power is what lies in collective cohesion. In other words, if you want to be the strongest, all you have to do is gather talent from all genres and create the strongest clan.
As a first step towards that ambition, when I became a Seeker, I searched for company as soon as I arrived in Imperial City. And luckily, I was able to party with three distinguished people.
Lloyd the swordsman, a red-haired good man. Dark-haired great, warrior Valter. Long blonde, healer Tania.
The three of them ran out just like me, but each of them was out of the Seeker training school. For that reason, all three are older than me.
Explorer Seeker has all his abilities, but his age is often valued, albeit slightly, between the runaways, and he is extremely busy, but I was a discipleship of the three. I mean, it's the bottom line. Lloyd's the leader of the party, not me.
Well, I can't help it at first. It's time to gain experience as a Seeker in no hurry.
The party isn't immutable, and I'm going to change it to the shape I want sooner or later. Good if my people will accept it. If you don't accept it, you just need to get out of the party and gather new people.
I don't hate and trust my people, but if you've been doing Explorer Seeker for a long time, it's more rare to keep on being the same member. The speed with which the split is broken, and a certain dryness, is also a necessary stance to play Explorer Seeker.
In any case, I am now a member of this party, "Outside the Pale Sky (Blue Beyond)". In order to play that role, I still work for Explorer Seeker today.

Abyss "Abyss" conversion occurs anywhere, no matter where, if the magic vegetarian "Mana" concentration becomes a constant number. It has nothing to do with people, beautiful flower gardens or crystal clear lakes.
However, it is still closed spaces, such as deep forests and caves, that are prone to increasing the concentration of magic vegetables Mana. Especially in secluded areas, management really gets sweeter.
This time, the place where our four parties received a request to purify the Abyss was an abandoned pit where Dwarf once mined White Star Silver (Mithril).
Although the abandoned pit is wide and deep, fortunately the progress of the abyss' avis' transformation is slow and only part of the whole thing is under the influence. The depth of the abyss Abyss is four. relatively shallow degree of danger. The present demons (beasts) are also known to have established tactics.
Lower vampire Lesser Vampire, vampire-type demon (Beast).
The vampire type basically looks like a person, a nasty demon (beast) who can handle powerful magic skills in addition to high physical and regenerative abilities, but the lower vampire Lesser Vampire cannot handle magic skills because it is a lower being.
Although it is also human in shape, it has four arms and a fairly heterogeneously stained body, which is white and monocular. Intelligence is only primitive, too.
But instead it has a high reproductive capacity, and can be increased solely by reproduction. At first it was one thing, but it's a horrible guy because it only adds up to dozens in a month.
If the discovery had been delayed, this cave would have overflowed with the junior vampire Lesser Vampire by now. When this happens, this is also a case that cannot be dealt with unless it is a large party of dozens or an alliance (alliance) between multiple parties.
Vampire type even if you can't handle magic skills. It has an arm that rips cattle apart with bare hands and a regenerative power that fully heals any damage unless you snap your neck. If surrounded by numbers, even the skilled Seeker will be eaten and killed in an instant.
Our party doesn't have a function (job) with the skills to explore the situation around it. It's convenient to have scouts and bowmen who are good at sign detection, but it's not easy to get people who match each other's conditions even in the vast empire.
Not everyone can be scouts or bowmen, and if they are less capable, they just get in the way. All of them want to keep good scouts and bowmen company, but that doesn't mean they won't do Explorer Seeker until they find them.
So we rely on Tania's light source skills to explore carefully. Each of the four killed the junior vampire Lesser Vampire they found from one end, paying attention to their surroundings.
Even after discovering the boss at the core of the abyss Abyss, be careful not to be noticed by you, and even continue to kill your subordinates. To keep you out of the way in the boss battle whenever possible.
If you're a party that's outnumbered by your power, you can beat it by rushing into the boss with a fast track. If we terminate the boss who is the nucleus of the Abyss, it is definitely more efficient because his subordinates, who have been cut off from this world, will also cease to operate immediately.
But unfortunately, we don't have that much power right now.
In the first place, this request is strict if everyone's function (job) is not above B-rank. Yet we were all C-ranked.
Kalacuri, who makes it impossible, is in my function (Job).
With my support (Buffs) as a Speaker, not only can you improve the ability of Party Members to fight, but you can also increase the Healing Rate of Health and Magic. A series of powerful attack and recovery skills doesn't exhaust you that much.
In other words, if you don't even get surrounded by numbers, you can keep winning all the time. Besides, it also reduces wear and tear, so you don't have to rush too much work to try a dangerous battle for fear of running out of stamina. The seemingly inefficient extermination operation is the right way to fight for us.
I am a support position (buffer) that tends to be ridiculed as the weakest because of my low combat abilities, but I have been trained by my grandfather, who called me a hero, to help me with my support (buff) abilities without being a party luggage.
In the past year of forming a party, we've been building up our track record in this way of fighting. Sometimes you get stuck with a big food rookie because you always aim for the superior.
For that reason, while we were all newcomers, in the same rank band, we were already recognized as top-notch seekers, Seekers, rather than skipping sync.
Most importantly, we're talking about the C-rank band. I will inherit the will of my great grandfather, and I must go even further.

Fortunately, I was able to eliminate all distribution without the boss noticing. Number is fifteen. As pre-investigated, only immature individuals worked well.
If this had been half a month away, not only would there have been more numbers, but we would have gained the wisdom to fight in groups. I can't handle advanced tactics on an intelligent level, but I can master the wisdom of fighting in groups.
After that, we couldn't handle it. The rewards you get for crusading the junior vampire Lesser Vampire are pretty good. Let me make some good money here.
"Boss, there's a centric range attack coming! The two avant-gardes, dodge behind!
Lloyd the swordsman and Valter the warrior, who had a fierce meeting with the boss of the junior vampire Lesser Vampire, following the instructions I gave, fly away in a big way.
Moments, several tentacles pop out of the boss's back, and with their sharp tips, they rarely sting the surrounding area. From the two people whose attacks were rubbed, there was a sound of a breaking of Parin and glass. This is the sound of the destruction of the Wall (Barrier) skill that was hung by the healer Tania in advance.
The Boss's Attack has the power to destroy the Wall (Barrier) just by scratching it. If there had been a slight delay in dodging, and if there had been no barrier, the two avant-gardes would have suffered fatal (critical) damage and turned into ground beef.
But there's no rush for us. This degree is within the assumed range.
"Tania, update the barrier for both of you! Lloyd and Valter resume the attack!
"Okay! Copy that!" "Leave it to me!
The battle is moving by my instructions from start to now. The leader of the party is Lloyd, but I'm the one giving instructions as a command tower.
The reason for this is not only because the guards are easier to grasp the war situation. Because every instruction I give has a supportive (buff) effect.
Speech Skills: Tactician Deployment.
Skills that increase the outcome and effectiveness of all their actions by 25 percent by giving instructions to party members. In other words, the three of us are now in a situation where all abilities are up 25 percent.
This rise is based on statistical data and is almost accurate.
In addition, the support (buffs) granted are not the only ones.
Speech Skill: Morale (Battle Voice).
Skills that increase the health and magic of party members by 25 percent and also increase their healing speed. This skill, granted at the same time as the start of the fight, allows the three of them to continue to fight with all their strength, even for a long time.
The war situation is in our favor. Lloyd's longsword and Valter's battle axe are slowly starting to hunt down the boss. The boss can only prolong the time he gets his neck dropped beyond being dodged by a first-sighted tentacle attack, which is his wife's hand. Even the beast, without great intelligence, felt its impatience.
But an unexpected incident is an accessory to everything.
"Liar, ambush!?
It was Tania who first noticed its existence. Hearing her scream and looking up at her gaze, there was Lesser Vampire, a trinity of junior vampires sticking on the ceiling and peeking at her messy pile teeth.
Apparently, he was lurking in a space we couldn't confirm.
The current war situation is in our favor, but if this ambush takes sides with the boss, the flow will lean over there at once. Tania's screams had reached both avant-gardes, and her face was hardened by tension. I decide instantly if I should continue the fight or run.
"Don't be a wolf! Continue the fight!
I didn't just give you instructions.
Speech Skills: Mental Solution (Peer Support).
Instructions were given skills to normalize the subject's spirit and boost his strength. This makes fear disappear from the three of them and renews their fighting spirit.
Of course, I'm not forcing you to fight. There was a chance.
The Combat Function (Job) basically has a higher Intelligence Correction value in the Guard. Among them, the Speaker is a top ranked Intelligence Correction Officer (Job) among all the Guards. Using its processing power and the combat knowledge it has accumulated so far, it can cover this degree of predicament, as much as it wants.
- Eighteen seconds.
I verified and squealed the operation I had assembled in my brain.
There is no defeat. The victory is confirmed. Eighteen seconds to get there.
Press the watch stopwatch button, raise your voice and give new instructions to the party members.
"I'll take care of the miscellaneous fish! The three of you concentrate on the boss! Tania, keep updating the barrier! Lloyd and Valter focus on restraint (maintaining Hate) and dodging while preparing to activate their Max Attack Skills!
Use of the tactical deployment Tactician.
And one more thing...
Speech Skills: Targeting (Marking).
Skills that give party members the ability to designate targets and increase their hitting and dodging abilities by 50 percent with their target exclusivity. Instead, my hitting and dodging powers against other enemies will be halved, but the ambushes will never let me turn to the three of them because I will hold them back (Hate maintained).
I turned to the ambushes flying from the ceiling.
"Stop!!!
Shouting out loud, the ambushes fail to land and roll to the ground.
Speech Skills: Wolf Roar (Stanhaul).
Skill to stop the enemy from moving. The boss, who is superior, is resisted (Resist) and has no effect, but succeeded in stopping the ambushes from moving.
Flipping a black long coat and releasing the demon gun (Silver Flame) from the holster on the belt sets the target for the ambushes.
The Demon Gun (Silver Flame) is a bullet with magic skills - a gun that emits demon bullets.
Material is white star silver (misrill) with high magic conductivity.Grip is a devil (beast) belonging to depth nine, phantom wolf dog (garm) fangs. A spell that amplifies the power of the Demon Bullet is also engraved on the rifling in the barrel with the blood of a Ghost Wolf Dog (Gulm).
The caliber is thirty-eight. Eight series of rotating (revolvers).
I am the only weapon that can be relied upon in a demonic (beast) battle, lacking in attack tactics. I named him Silver because he was also an indispensable partner.
Most importantly, one bullet at a time is very expensive, so you can't shoot all you want (trigger happy). The remaining bullet has two ice bombs, Ice Barrett. I shot that one at the ambushes.
Ice Barrett, an ice bomb that hit the ground directly, freezes the perimeter. He did not have enough cooling power to kill him instantly, but succeeded in freezing his hands and feet and sealing his movements. But as soon as I recovered from the pause (Stan) state, the hell jumped the ice and dodged it, and it hit me.
The guy who alerted the demon gun (Silverflame) is always out of the ray by taking steps to the zigzag. I don't have sniper correction skills. It's pretty hard for me to accurately match a quick guy's movements.
Also, even if I immediately use Wolf Roar (Stanhaul), it is deactivated because it is resistant. To stop (stan) again, at least enough must be between them. I mean, it's impossible in this fight.
Fifteen seconds to go. Four seconds until the ambush claws reach me.
Everything is calculated.
Without hesitation, point the muzzle of the demon gun (Silverflame) towards the boss behind you and speak from the bottom of your belly.
"Now! Lloyd and Valter activate their Attack Skills on the Boss!
Squeeze the trigger at the same time as the instruction. Of course, there's no way you can shoot backwards and hit it. But the boss showed a flash of fright when I was dealing with an ambush, and I attacked him regardless.
Without knowing that moment would be a lifesaver.
Ice bomb Ice Barrett deviates slightly from the boss, landing on the wall and freezing the perimeter. The moment the boss followed it with his eyes, two avant-garde men jumped.
"Brawl Break" Aura Blade! "" Rotational Slaughter "Deadly Drive!
The boss tried to take two attacks with his nails, but it's pointless resistance.
Speech Skills: The total of the coalition (raid command).
Ability to multiply the power of all Attack based skills of a party member by 10x during a 10-second effect. It was granted at the time of the order.
The Assault Command is the most powerful of all my Speech skills. However, as a result, recoil is also significant and the drain associated with the activation of the attack skill rises significantly, the grantee becomes temporarily incapacitated after the attack has ended.
That's why we needed to identify where we used it. And the momentary gap I made was the perfect time for that.
The boss's neck, severed by two amazing blades, dances the universe. The claws of the ambush that were imminent in front of me stopped there perfectly, falling and laying still.
Stop the stopwatch and check the number of seconds indicated by the needle.
"- Just eighteen seconds. Confirm enemy silence."
For a party command tower like mine, being able to assemble accurate operations in seconds is an indispensable element. If judgment is delayed even for a moment, that will trigger the complete annihilation of the party. So, to see if there's any madness in the calculations, I try to gauge the time here.
My cheeks loosened just a little to be able to command the perfect battle this time as well.
"Combat action, over. - Good day, guys."
