Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.

The cherry blossom knife has a black sheath and cherry blossom pattern thread.When I think of it as pink, I feel that it is too cute, but it is a lighter, calmer, exactly the color of the cherry blossom image, so I don't care so much.

Since the sheath contains an emblem of the Watanabe, it cannot be put into Saddle's hand at all, and it is shaped to be shown by pulling out a knife.

"This is... iron... bye. Not even silver.

Another knife struck with an ingredient I don't know. "

"Again, a sword with special abilities.I've confirmed my abilities, and I've shaken them a few times... but I'd like to know his own performance. "

"If I used it, I'd feel it, you know?"

"Somehow, I felt that it had the same performance as the Shimizu Sword, but if you were an adventurer, you'd know that you'd want to hear the opinion of an expert."

"I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know!"

"If that's the case..."

Saddle nodded at Petro's words and slowly watched the cherry blossom sword from top to bottom.

"I don't know what material it was made of, but from what I've seen, I think this sword is a pretty good artisan.

A sword weighs more on tenacity than sharpness.A sword that emphasizes toughness over spa and slashing.However, although we attach great importance to it, it is difficult to say that it is specialized in durability.Overall, the performance is high and cohesive, but among them, the robustness is higher than others... "

"Thank you for the easy explanation. In other words, a sword that can be used enough..."

"Well, as Sinya says, we won't be able to get this level of sword here first."

"I'm relieved to hear that."

I can put the finished Shimizu sword in the inventory and carry the cherry blossom sword to my waist.I should have shaken it a few times to find out what kind of sword it was.

"Still... it's only been about two months since that Shimizu sword was destroyed, and the SS ranked monster is still strong."

"There was nothing strong about it.Without a strong helper, it would have been dangerous. "

"I don't suppose Sinya has much to say... Sinya and Nil are different from the adventurers.

One day, we'll have to do our best to stand in the same position. "

Is it about time?

Seeing me and Saddle finished talking, Promerte called out.

"I know it's going to be a long story about weapons, but we've had enough breaks, so let's move on."

Yes...

Neither I nor Saddle seem to have been too focused.Tana's breath is good and her sweat is relieving.

I wasn't expecting you to have a fresh water sword that wasn't uncomfortable... but suddenly I couldn't cut it off during the battle!I'm glad it didn't happen.

Tens of meters from there, I finally lost sight of the rock mimic.

"The ground around here is flat."

"It might be time to go down."

Shall we drop the monster carcass again?

"No, I don't want an individual on that carcass coming down the road.I'll check this out. "

"How do we find out?"

"It's probably the fastest way to go down."

"Danger! If you go down, I'll go!"

Well, I thought you said that... Nil is still fiercely opposed.

"No, there is also the magic of the Holy Spirit, and I can evacuate immediately.I'd better go.The defensive magic goes on, so don't worry. "

More rookies may emerge, and there is no guarantee that it will be absolutely safe, but someone has to go.

Of these, I'm probably the one who can move fastest, has a high status, and is likely to escape alone.In that case, the best way is for me to go.

"But..."

Still stroking Nil's head as he tried to devour it.

"It's okay. Everyone knows it's the most likely thing to get down safely.And most of the time, if everybody can cover us from here, we can get rid of it. "

In fact, I can't see the rock mix, and if the rookies were coming, they'd be here by now.You can say there's almost no danger in the absence of it. Maybe....

When everyone is ready, I'll have the rope wrapped around my waist and lowered down.I could have jumped, but I don't know if the ground is safe, and it's very important to be afraid of the unknown, as Turner said.When you can go carefully, you should go carefully.

As soon as I got close to the ground, I checked the ground and found out it was okay, I finally landed.

…………………

The lantern light, the sound and vibration I make.This information will spread in a circle around me.

However, even if I wait a while, I don't see anything particularly happening.

"You look fine."

I look up and give a signal.

One by one came down slowly, and finally I was able to put my foot on the ground.

"I don't see anything..."

Even Petro's ears did not confirm the existence of a monster.

"You may notice the rock mimic, so let's go a little further."

After all, I've come down from the rock mimic, but if they notice, the amount I've seen so far may be approaching at once.I didn't like to imagine such a hell of a picture, so I went quietly back for a while.

In the meantime, there is nothing in particular to be attacked by, and the steps go smoothly.

"If I can get away from here, I'll be relieved."

Petro gives me a breath and tells me I'm safe.

"Shall we build walls around and take a break?"

"Yes, I'm hungry too."

Create a magical and simple placement at Turner's suggestion.

Unfortunately, when it comes to food, the smell is dangerous, so I can't use the fire.Of course, because there is no way to cook, we will mainly eat dried foods prepared by Mr. Hulina and things like onigiri that are relatively smellless.

"It's been a long time since I've had this kind of meal because I've had a lot of simple requests lately, centered around the city."

"Because it's something I don't usually eat."

"As far as I'm concerned, I'm just happy that Elves ate a familiar piece of rice.It's good to see you, Shinya! "

"That way, it sounds like you're meeting rice... rather than me...?"

"Huh? Really? I don't think so at all.I care too much. "

It's Promerte. If you look away, it's more authentic...

I thought I'd lose my mind in a dark place, but the five Eagle Crows talk like they always do.

It's not that you're not alert.As evidence, Petro's ears kept moving as busy as they could, so as not to miss the sound.

I know that when the atmosphere gets dark in places like this, I can't perform as it should.

If you're a game character, you can always do the same thing by pressing the button.

But the inhabitants of this world I've seen so far were ordinary people, not characters or NPCs.

In other words, the disease is not out of mind, but spiritual ups and downs are heavily involved in the results.Creating an atmosphere is unexpectedly important in combat.If you change your language, you can say morale.

"Still... it was so much deeper than I expected."

"It will be difficult for ordinary adventurers to get down when they reach Hell Light.We would certainly have turned back if it weren't for Sinya and Nil. "

"Even though it was a bitter strategy to drop it here, I wonder if it was bad..."

"Even if it was bad, I dropped the facts, so there's nothing I can do about it now.Now, it's more important to talk about this unclear horizontal hole.I don't know how far it goes. "

"Are there any other holes in the Gegandar plain that would lead underground?"

"I'm thinking, but as far as we know, I've never heard of a place like that.

It's just that the Gegandal Plains are incredibly wide.I don't think it's possible that it hasn't been discovered yet... "

The crack itself extends straight northeast.

If a horizontal hole persists in the extension of the ground crack, it will proceed under the Gegandar plain.I don't know how far it goes, but maybe we'll have to walk a lot farther than we originally planned.

Fortunately, after entering the horizontal hole, you will not see a branching hole in the wall on the right facing northeast.

I don't know if it's the same in the future, but for now, I don't have to worry about getting lost.If there are many branches in the nest of ants, it will be a difficult investigation.

"Nil, I'm sorry, can I ask for a mapping?"

"Got it."

Nil immediately responded to my words and began mapping the paper taken from the waist bag.

"As for Shinya, you think you might need mapping...?"

"Just in case. Looks like a natural hole as far as the walls and ground are concerned.I have entered the Jongni cave several times... but there are not many natural holes that just keep going straight.Well, I've never seen it.

It's hard to imagine a straight path ahead. "

"That's right... artificially made things are often much more natural than we expected...

If you want to map, you should also check the wall on the left hand side and proceed, right? "

We haven't seen any walls on the other side since we started cracking the ground.Because we only use lanterns with low light intensity, there is no light reaching the opposite wall.

The distance to the opposite wall seen in the crack is tens of meters.Increase the amount of light to ensure that it reaches you.But we're moving along the wall on the right.In order to deliver light, you need a light amount that illuminates tens of meters.That means the same amount of light reaches the front, rear, and top.

There are likely to be other light-sensitive monsters like Hell Light, and if the branch is bad, there is no need to increase the danger for mapping now.

"Let's do it when the turning point appears."

"... Sinya-san is really careful.

When I decide to do it, I get all bold. "

"Well... that's the weapon I wore to survive."

For solo players, prudence is above all else.

If you encounter a situation you can't handle, you have to escape.No matter how much action you take, solo play has its limits.

Because there were no friends to cover my mistakes, there was only one small mistake that could have caused me to stand in trouble.

Especially when I started working as a solo player, I experienced character reset many times with such mistakes, and each time I broke my heart.

I can't count what this Shinya's body is.

Don't take extra risks.If you act sweetly, monsters in this world will surely come for their lives.I've been reminded that I don't like it, so I'll be careful.

Conversely, we don't miss the opportunity.This is also important.If you think it's an opportunity, step in boldly and with all your heart.This judgment is very difficult, but if we do not seize the opportunity, we will never achieve our purpose, become a war of attrition, and one day we will lose.

If you continue to live like that, the judgment of when you have to do something and when you don't, is naturally acquired.

Normally, when life is at stake, there is no such dangerous journey, or many people die before their judgment is nurtured.But in my case, I wore it in the game.

That was lucky.

Such a combat style or a way of life... because it is stained, from Promerte's point of view, you can't help but be cautious and suddenly do bold things, even if you don't seem to understand.

After explaining this with my mouth, I don't think I can understand it, and if I am in the opposite position, I can confidently say that I can't understand it.

So...

"Really? I'm thinking about it myself..."

That's why it's an ambiguous response.

"In Sinya's case, it's strange because it will succeed."

"Yeah, I know that.I also wonder if I can catch it. "

It's your husband!

Nil bragged for some reason.

"As always... Nil loves his master."

Ha!

Hmm?

……………

Nil turns bright red and leans against Promerte's mouth.

"That hair ornament... it looks like it's really important. Did Shinya give it to you?"

"Ha, yes..."

"That's good! It's so beautiful and looks good on you!"

"Ah, thank you... thank you..."

Even in this darkness, the female team seems to be having fun.

In the meantime, Donnate, the leader, calls out to me.

"Sinya, when my stomach settles, I'm going to move on... but there are a few things I need to decide before I do."

"Yes, we can't go on like this."

"The fact that a Hell Light has appeared means that S-rank monsters are also lurking, and it's not always possible to break through it all at once, just like before.

Formation, role... let's decide again about the area. "

Got it.

"First of all, we have to make sure that we don't go by five and two, but by seven."

Eagle Crow, me and Nil.It's not about the composition, it's about the seven of us wanting to go on as one party.

"We have a crowd at the corner, so I think we should talk about working together."

"When that happens... Shinya. Will you be the leader of this party until this is done?"

"Me?"

Yeah.

I'm serious about Saddle, but I think Saddle's moves and instructions are much better than mine.

Saddle, who's been a solo player for five years, should be easier to move than me to give instructions.

"I think Saddle should do it.Even Eagle Crowe are easier to move, right? "

"We are the only S-ranked adventurers in the city of Chuko, so we often have temporary parties with others suddenly, so we know how to move.

That's why you don't have to give me that kind of instruction in the first place.

On the contrary, we can't give instructions to the two Sinja.If you're not reluctant, you can't simply measure the strength of people who are stronger than you.I have trouble giving instructions.

I can't tell how far I can go or where I can't come from.

Above all, we must not reach the speed of thought and movement of the two Sinja.

So, can I ask for it? "

"Is that what this is about...?"

If I give instructions as a leader, Eagle Crow's movements will feel worse...

"Have you ever received a joint quest for a variety of parties?"

"Just... a few times.Twice... no, about three. "

"What kind of party were you leading the whole thing at the time?"

"You were the leader of the highest-ranking party."

"Yeah, I guess so.The party will be the strongest.They'll be stepping on a few places.

People of lower rank than themselves are halfway along the path they have come through, so you can imagine how much you can do and how much you can't do from anywhere.Fewer impossible instructions. "

"I mean, a strong man can take command...?"

"I won't let the Solo people direct me, and I have the personality of the person who is trying to direct me, so I can't say that everything is the same as the pattern, but in the case of Sinya, I'm used to giving instructions."

Don Nath looks at Nil.

Sure, when you two are together, I'll give you instructions and Nil will follow them.

When I was a player, it was a complete solo, but not now.I am accustomed to giving instructions.

"If you say so... I'll give you instructions.

I'll do my best to do it... but if it seems impossible or something happens, just tell me. "

"Of course it is."

I'm worried that I can do it properly... because Donatee, who has been a leader for so long, says, let's believe it.

"Well... then, as a leader, can you give me instructions for the formation?"

"Yes, that's right."

Donnate said with a smile.

Donnate is still an S. Definitely.

I can't complain because it's kind.

"Is Shinya going to give me directions?"

"Yeah, I think that's better.Is that good enough for everyone? "

"I have no problem."

"In a sense, of course."

I agree with you too!

"That's fine with me, too."

Everyone agrees with Donnate's words.

Well then, nice to meet you.

"Oh, oh..."

I'm nervous...

Well then, let's decide from the formation first.

The avant-garde is Saddle. Donnate behind it.This place is fixed. "

"That's all I can do for Saddle and me."

"It means I specialize in that.

Saddle's rough defenses are the key to defense, and Donnate's heavy blow is the key to attack.I don't have a choice. "

"If you give it back honestly, you'll be illuminated..."

"Leave the protection to me!"

"Next, I, Petro, and Nil are the guards."

"Three Nakamori?"

Nil is different from Saddle, but has a high defense.You can fight well in the avant-garde... but the avant-garde is normal.
