Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.

The three men who realized that they had not settled yet jumped back and made their way for me.

"Uh-oh!"

Zashh!!

Shake your sword hard toward the open road.

Zuban!!

Swordsmanship, Thundercracker, and Plus Power strike make the potato bug vertically in two.This should have definitely stopped him.

Bujujujujuju!

I can see a lot of liquid coming out of the body of a giant potato monster with the wounds from the donatees and the last blow I put in.

Surrounded by magically created water, body fluids do not leak out and move around in the water.

Something other than ammonia is mixed in, a dark green liquid.

The giant potato monster moved a few times even after it was in the middle of two, but immediately stopped moving and became a good-day.

"Ugh... it's disgusting..."

"Wow?! It's super small!?"

After goodness, a giant potato monster with all the liquid in it coming out becomes a small mass of about 30 centimeters.

As far as I could see after he died, I thought he was a potato worm, but it might be closer to a sea cucumber.Either way, it's disgusting...

"Master... what about this water...?"

"Even though it's dissolved in water, if we leave it in the cave, we might strangle ourselves later... I'll put it in my inventory."

"I wish I could bury something that stinks and feels disgusting."

"I don't know if I can bury it... but it could be used for something."

"Do you even use this stuff...? The monster's body fluids...?"

"If you can use it, you can use anything."

……………

"If you see such a dirty thing with your eyes, you'll get scratched by a boulder...?"

My words were supposed to have arrived, but Promerte didn't stop for a while.

First of all, we can destroy the monsters and continue through the cave again.

"That was a monster with a nasty trait, but if we knew how to deal with it, it wouldn't be that dangerous."

"It's a big one, so it might be a hassle to have several bodies out at the same time."

"If my body is full of moisture, can't I use my ice magic to freeze it?"

"I don't know if I'm going to try... but maybe I won't freeze."

Higher concentrations of aqueous ammonia have lower freezing points than water.It should have been lower than minus fifty degrees.

If Nil's freeze can produce temperatures below it, we can freeze it... but I don't know.

"My lightning magic may be more useful than ice magic.Let's try it the next time it comes out. "

"Yes."

Giggle giggle giggle giggle giggle...

"Rumors are shadows..."

The same monster appears again, making a loud noise.

"Use Lightning Magic! Give me some time!"

"Leave it to me!"

Saddle comes forward and starts drawing attention.

Saddle has always fought in the vanguard.In addition to being attacked, it is also a trick to keep attacking while drawing attention.

"All right, stand back!"

Reacting to my voice, Saddle jumps back at once.

Buzz buzz!

The magic team I drew glows yellow.

Intermediate, Lightning Magic, Thunderbyte.

From the left and right of the subject, the electric shock runs and shocks the magic.

Naturally, it's not an easy magic to react to, but it's a tough business to avoid.As with normal lightning, it is possible to cause electric shock even in remote locations when exposed to metal or water.

Depending on the surrounding environment and combinations with other magic, even intermediate magic can be as aggressive as advanced magic.

Because it's such a dangerous magic trick, if you use it incorrectly, it could get you and your friends involved, so you should be careful when using it...

The electric shock generated by the giant potato monsters to the left and right makes a dangerous sound.

Beep beep beep beep!!

However, when it is determined that it is dangerous, the lightning already conveys the subject's entire body.

A giant scallop monster that twitches and spasms all over its body, leaves a trace of smoke rising from its body, lying on the ground and stuck to the ground.

"No... did you do it?"

Saddle slowly approached and touched the monster with his shield, but there was no response.

"Looks like you beat him."

"Su, that's amazing magic..."

"I may not be a good fit... I'm afraid of sounds and tingling."

Petro is a group of beasts who are closer to beasts than humans, so he is probably more fearful of lightning.It's similar to cats and dogs being frightened when thunderstorms strike the ground.

Because your hearing is better than that of a person, it will sound many times louder, so it's scary and natural.

"If I can defeat this monster with a single hit, I think it would be better to ask Shinya to help me."

"That's right. Thanks to Turner, there's still enough magic left, so let's take the van down and move on.

Attention, everyone. "

Alright! If that's the case, let's keep going!

"Petro, calm down a little bit."

"Uhh... yes..."

Petro scolded by Promerte.

As usual, Petro seems restless… but in the forest where Greenman lived, he didn't seem to have floated this far.

Some might say that Tana's life was on the balance... but I feel something like a burning sensation.

"Promerte."

What?

Moving on, after defeating some giant sea cucumber monsters, I talked to Promerte.

"It's Petro....."

"Uh... yeah, I know.I'm a little worried. "

I've known Petro longer than I have, and Pro-Merte seems to have noticed.

"It's not the kind of kid who's calm in the first place, but after this story is settled, it's got a lot of weight.

I'm sorry, I'll tell you again. "

I think it's really amazing how you can lower your head for Petro. Promerte is really gentle.

"After all, have you activated the beta...?"

"Yes... I think Petro is responsible for the fact that all of us were there, but it was Petro that finally activated it.

Until then, it was worse.Optimistic... moving without thinking...

It may still look like something like this, but in really important situations, it's hard to be optimistic or to get into it without thinking. "

"Since I started the beta, I've been using it as a warning."

"Yes, it wasn't harmful, but it was a case of death if we succeeded.

When I realized that someone else might die because of me, I grew up pretty big. "

"For Petro, beta is kind of traumatic in a way."

"We were responsible for not stopping Petro, and Grandma Arten apologized for leaving it in such a cluttered place..."

"As the person who actually moved his hand, it's not easy to relax..."

"Yes. Except for the important occasions, it makes me feel like an old Petro… but it also makes me feel like I'm playing something.I don't know if the person has that feeling. "

Somehow I don't know.

After killing people in the original world, I was depressed.On the contrary, there were times when I tried to play a normal self and reassure my parents.

I think it's an emotion similar to that.

You're not the only one, so don't carry it on your own... and you'll say a nice word to me.I'm really glad about that. To the point of tears.

But somewhere in my heart, I wonder if it's a building... or if it's something I have to solve by myself... or vice versa, the kindness is painful... and various emotions get messed up.

I don't know what to do, I'm depressed, I try to be strong, I'm idle... It's a difficult story, but people are such creatures, so I can't help it.

"As for me, I think that's what I'm trying to do... rather than play."

"Are you trying to be a healthy petro...?"

"After all, I have to ask him how he feels."

…………………

"I don't think Nil and I will talk, and I'll leave Petro to her.But with so many unknown monsters, it's a pretty dangerous place.

Do something as soon as you can, or you'll get hurt. "

"... yeah... Shinya, can I take a break?"

Ah.

Petro should be standing still because he wants to achieve this request, not because he wants to.

It is very good for the party to work on the request with a strong feeling and be motivated.

Even during games, when I was throwing an extraordinary party, inside... "DaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMagic crap. I'm not motivated. Some people said things like '.

That kind of party makes me nervous, and it shreds the motivation of others.

Conversely, "Super fun! Let's do more!Wow! You're amazing!There were people who said, "

Those people's parties were always fun and the success rate of requests was high.And if they fail, they say, "Don't maydon 't maydon 't!Good luck next time! Ends with.

There is no need for everyone to have exactly the same motivation, but whether motivation is positive or negative is very important.

In that regard, Petro is super-positive, so the spiritual pillars of the party are also large.

I'm just going too far and empty.That's why promerte is difficult to watch out for and cannot be said strongly.

Still, it is too late since I got injured.It's not good for Petro or for this party to keep going.It may be a tough way to put it, but it can also be a situation where the party is completely annihilated by the emptiness of the floating Petro.

"It's a little early, but let's take a break."

"Okay, I'll stretch the wall, so Sinya needs to rest."

As Tana sweetened her words and rested first, Promerte sat next to Petro.

"Petro."

"Hmm? What's wrong? Look serious."

"I may have said it again and again, but I'm a little too anxious.

It's good to be motivated, and I know Petro's brightness brightens us all.I really appreciate it.

But if we keep moving fast, someone might get hurt somewhere.Perhaps it will be irreversible.

That's why I want you to calm down a little. "

……………

Petro looks a little dark in Promerte's words.

Maybe I knew it myself.

"I'm not mad at you."

"... yeah, I know that.

I think you're right that I'm in a hurry.I'm trying to be careful... "

Petro's face and ears turned down little by little.

No matter how kindly I say it, I'm sure the results will be the same.

"Don't be depressed."

At that point, Saddle came and stroked Petro's head a little violently.

"Nobody's hurt yet.You should be careful from here.

Petro has changed. I learned that I was responsible for what I did.

The sense of responsibility is just too strong and empty.That's not what I used to think. "

"Compared to the old days, Petro has become much more rounded.We lived with our minds on, so we stayed haunted. "

"Ugh... I'm sorry..."

"I like the old Petro, too, don't I?"

"If Tana says that, she'll get on with it again.Sometimes you should say something tough. "

"Uh-huh... but it's true..."

"I told Tana I was an idiot..."

"What?! Promerte sucks!"

Petro's ears are slightly returning to their original position as he interacts with Turna and Promerte.

"Well, now I think Petro is rushing around, so let's calm down once and stay on the ground."

"Yeah... I'm sorry I took so long for you..."

Petro lowered his head to me, who was looking at me in silence.

"It's my job now to make sure that Petro and everyone can accomplish it without getting hurt.Never mind. "

"Mmm...."

I can't help thinking that I made time for this story, but I feel sorry for Petro.However, since you've done so much, Petro will also be very careful.

"We can't go on like this, and we're done for today."

"Eh?! I'm not ready yet!"

"Petro."

"Ah... sorry..."

"It won't change much in time, whether it's here slowly or in a hurry."

"... yeah, that's right.

I knew you were in a hurry. Hahhh... I have to calm down. "

It will take some time to calm down.Just because I was careful doesn't mean my anxiety disappears.

Petro has no choice but to think about how to control the rush and how to fold it.

There is Tana next to Petro, and if we take time, we will have no problems.

"Ah, I still feel the smell from behind my nose..."

"I don't know what Pro-Merte is... it's going to make me sick because of its unique smell."

"Is that monster still coming out...?"

"It would be nice just to say that you can easily defeat a monster.

A monster that can make you struggle every time is better than a pom pom. "

"That's right... I wonder how far this cave is going anyway."

"I don't see any trace of beta or anything."

"Well... if they find us and destroy us, we can turn back right away."

"For now, I'm not lost on the main road, and I may be close by unexpectedly.Think about it and don't let it cut you off. "

"I know. I won't get stuck like this."

It's nice to say that, but... the next day.

Petro's buoyant atmosphere also calmed down and a good start was made two hours ago.

In the meantime, there were several fights against monsters.

There were monsters other than giant sea cucumber monsters, but most of them were below B rank, so I didn't struggle because they were all known monsters.

"Looks like we're still a long way from here..."

"Ah... promerte. I'm sorry for moaning..."

Petro apologizes to Promerte for coming back.

"What?"

"Looks like there's a lot of horizontal holes ahead of us..."

Petro raises a lantern and illuminates the back, creating a small hall-like space with holes in its walls and ceilings and branching passages.

As before, holes are made naturally. Of course, there are holes that are connected up at angles that are unlikely to climb, holes that have to fall, places that are too narrow to pass through, and places that are likely to collapse.

"Is it possible... to choose a beta path from among these?"

………………

It is obvious that whoever sees it is close to impossibility.

I wish I could find a clue, but it's not that convenient.

"We'll have to crush them one by one..."

"This... all of it?"

Even if you just glance at it, you can see a hole that is close to ten.Considering the likelihood that there will be a branch ahead of the chosen path....

"You don't have to look into everything.The size of the beta I asked Grandma Arten was a small woman size close to Petro.

That means there's no place where Petro can't pass or climb.

If it had gone through, it would have left a trail.

Let's start by excluding those passages and looking at the remaining passages.

If we're lucky, we may find some traces.I can't go any further than Gdaghda says, so let's get started. "

First, Nil maps the entrance at the branching origin location.

Next, take a look inside each entrance to see if there are any holes that might pass through and report to Nil.

Identify passageways that are not accessible or have to leave traces in order to pass, but have no traces, and choose to discard the passageways.

"I think I can go this way."

"I can't do this here."

"I can't... I'm going through..."

Nil maps as he was told.

"Er... there are three possible paths."

"That's less than I thought."

"But these three destinations are important.

Where are you going? "

"As you can see, the road on your right hand is up, the road on your left hand is down, and the road in the middle is straight ahead.

After all, we're not going straight ahead, so it's just a guide. "

"I don't know where we're going anyway, so it won't change much, will it?"

"Well then... let's take the right path."

Alright, let's go!

Petro pushes up one arm and takes the road to his right.

It has a slight uphill slope and it is difficult to walk a little, but it is not so painful.The size is such that three adults can pass side-by-side, and the height is about three meters. There is no difficulty breathing.
