He finished his discussions with the president of the association and received a silver plate, a testament to the B rank, and returned home.

"Ha... I'm so tired"

"You've never been a bee before. I don't think he can help it, because he felt incredibly awesome."

As soon as I got home, I decided to gather in the living room to discuss what was going on today.

Mr Christoph, President of the Association.

I had the firm impression when I heard the president of the association, but when I talked to him, he was an easy person to talk to.

But I'm so upset that we've been poking exactly where we don't want to be known.

Definitely not that guy... if we ever had a chance to have a conversation in the future, we need to be careful.

"Nevertheless, I didn't expect you to ask me for a favor as soon as you got B-ranked."

"It was a request for an escort, wasn't it? Quelles, the magical city...... what is it about?

What was written on the requisition that Mr. Christoph showed me was a request to escort him to the magical city of Quelles.

It's a B-rank or better nominated one, and the client seems to be a rich man living in Wang Du.

The departure is 6 days later, just like when we arrived from Brunne to Wangdu by carriage, travelling for more than 10 days.

And the reward is 600,000 G.

No, boulder rich. You're fat.

But can we just get promoted to B-rank as escorts?

There doesn't seem to be a problem with it militarily, but I'm worried I can do it right.

That and the magic city of Quelles, the destination of this request for escort.

I can tell by the name, but it was the city where the wizards were.

I'm finally going to be able to worship the Wizards of this world, and I'm wondering what kind of city it is.

"Hmm, good morning..."

"Whoa, you're up, Luna."

Luna came to the living room in her usual nightcap sleeping roll.

Are you still tired from yesterday or are you about to rub your eyes and sleep?

Just fine, and shall I tell you about the request for escort within the moment?

When it comes to requesting an escort, you won't be able to come back for more than 10 days.

I may not have time to install the beacon on the road either because I also have other people's eyes so I can't put it down freely.

When that happens, in the meantime, Luna will be at home alone.

I haven't signed up as an adventurer, and I'm not taking you with me.

"Hmm, leave it to me while you're away. I'll take care of it responsibly."

"You're reliable. Oh, and Mofft's rice, too."

"Oh, don't worry, I'm going to spend some time with Mofft"

Arm in arms and confidently Luna replied.

You look like a toddler, but you're very reliable.

Of course you can't take Mofft, so it's convenient for Luna to stay at home.

He still receives the mofoot that Knoll held since he left, and is adorable as he strokes his body.

"I'm worried about leaving Mr. Luna alone! Let me stay too!

"What are you talking about? There's a cleric out there, but don't bring him in. He'll piss off the escort or something."

Sisha, who was listening, beat the desk with a banging sound momentum and stood up from the chair, claiming to stay with one hand clenched in front of his chest.

Such an opinion is, of course, rejected.

You can't possibly bring a cleric to a party or something.

Besides, if you accomplish this request, it will be convenient because Sisha will also be ranked E.

"Le, Mr. Luna, you want me to stay, don't you? Right?"

"No, not at all"

"Ugh... I don't know..."

You understand that my persuasion is no good, and now I appeal to Luna herself to ask for it.

And Luna answered as if she didn't care as she stroked Mofft, without even turning her gaze.

Hearing the response, Sisha is sitting back in her chair very hard and crying with her mouth saying that she has a hard time laying her face down on the desk.

Too ruthless...... I thought I'd narrowed my distance a little, but I cut it off with an instant answer......

Well, that would be more helpful this time.

"Looks like we have a few days till Promise Day, but should we be ready for something?

"Um, for now, I'm not free to use items from Gacha, so why don't I buy you some stuff you need"

It's the same as a beacon, and I intend to refrain from using Gacha's conveniences whenever possible where people have eyes.

It hurts not to be able to serve cha-cha food, but I can't help it.

Looks like some villages will pass by on the way to Quelles, but let's grab some food to keep for a while.

I don't have to worry about rotting because I have a magic bag.

"Oh, speaking of which, you could lend me your horse this time, right? I'm going to need at least two heads, but what are you going to do? I can ride one head, but who's going to ride the other?

"I can't ride a horse. I'd love to be behind your brother if I could."

"You can't ride a horse, Osakura. I can't believe I rode in front of you."

"Ah, uh! I can't hear, I can't hear!

I misled out loud because Knoll seemed to say something extra.

Don't spread that embarrassing story!

We're supposed to escort the carriage on horseback this time.

If we can all ride, we can borrow four heads, but I'm sure Estelle and I can't ride.

Riding two people per head would be the limit, and I have to be able to maneuver another horse.

What do we do... do we have to practice so I can ride the rest of the day?

I still have the trauma from the previous ride.

"Don't be ridiculous, what will you really do? I'll hold the reins if you want."

"What, can you ride Sissha?

"I don't think you're as good as Mr. Knoll, but you can ride. What a cleric, so yes."

"Well... then, please"

Sissha, with her face up, said she could ride a horse.

There are no signs of crying on my face at all. You lied and cried...

Than that, it was helpful that Sissha could ride a horse.

But I can't believe I could ride a horse in close combat... I'm a cleric.

"Well, as for getting ready to do it with a bump, other than that, I'd like to do it before I leave."

"Oh, could there have been anything else to do?

I have something to check before I go to the escort to get my stuff ready later.

"Try using a synthesizer and confirm the skill development you got during the Labyrinth attack."

"You were getting that stuff. How can we enhance our skills?

"I guess so"

SSR synthesizers expelled from the chatter and Labyrinth reward SSR skill enhancements.

The synthesizer can mix two objects, and the skill enhancement looks like something that can enhance your skills by name.

Turning a chilling glance at Estelle as she did when the cost was down, she noticed her gaze and smiled back.

And I thought I'd point my finger at myself again to emphasize it, and I'd do nothing in particular to keep seeing me as Nico.

"You're not appealing this time."

"I can't tell you how selfish I am. It's important when it comes to choosing skills."

Lowering costs is also important, but it's not that easy to talk about when it comes to improving your skills.

You're judging that right.

When this happens, I want to strengthen you the other way around, but that's not why.

When it comes to strengthening your skills, are three candidates first: Knoll, Esther, and Luna?

I haven't used Cisha's skills yet, and now I won't need to strengthen them yet.

I'm a change of title, so it's pretty much the same as having no skills.

Considering from among these three... who am I supposed to be?

Knoll is almost invincible with increasing all abilities if he uses his skills. I can't move for a while at the same time as my skills are over.

Estelle gains Magic Power and deals Damage to opponents with high Magic Resistance and Defense all at once. After the end, I feel sick and my magic accuracy and power are reduced.

Luna can launch a high-powered single attack in a short period of time. The more I just use it, the more bloodsucking impulses I get and losing reason.

They're all too powerful to know what to do.

Hmmm...... Should I be reinforcing Knoll's skills here?

Maybe it will be mitigated that you will not be able to move after the end.

It would be very helpful if you could continue to fight after your skills.

Estelle and the others have a post-skill recoil, but it's not enough for them to be unable to move, so let's have patience.

"Okay, let's make it a knoll this time. Maybe this will ease the pain."

"I'd be happy to be. That really hurts..."

You're always crying like a real pain after activation.

It must be quite painful because that's what happens to Knoll, who is usually fine with eating an attack.

I hope it's at least slightly mitigated......

That's why I just picked up my skills on my smartphone to target Knoll.

Then the light overflows from the smartphone and is absorbed into Knoll's body.

"What do you say? Do you feel any different?

"Hmmm... Hmmm, it doesn't feel particularly unusual."

I hold my hand, open it, move my body over there. Knoll is checking, but nothing seems to have changed.

I figured if I didn't activate my skills, wouldn't I feel the change?

There may be some change in status, so let's see.

[Silver Aura 2]

Double all stats by 3.2 for 12 minutes. Re-use time: 10 hours

"This is quite... how far will it go in the end"

"But your body is going to hurt if you still use it...... We want a lot of enhancements soon!

"If I'm going to lose that headache too, I'd like you to strengthen it."

Confirming Knoll's skills, the time was prolonged and his talent level increased, and the time for re-use was shorter.

What happens if you just reinforce one and it gets so much, or maximize it?

This is gonna make me want more skill development.

"In the meantime, why don't we try it within the moment to see what happens?

"That's right. Then we'll try -!

When Knoll strangles his sides and screams, his whole body is wrapped in a white aura.

I decided to have my skills checked because the time to reuse it was extended and I don't plan on doing anything anymore today.

Besides, if I did it now, I would know what would happen after using it if I didn't fight.

Are you hurting your body because of that unusual movement, or does that work for your skills themselves?

"Oh, this is Knoll's skill. That's amazing."

"That was the first time you had shown it to Luna! Hmm. Isn't that great?

"Oh, cool"

Luna applauds Knoll for her first glimpse of his skills.

Knoll feels better about being praised and he looks good with his chest up.

You're always nervous about using your skills to make you feel better.

I thought Luna was cold, too, and you like this.

You're glowing all over your body as if you're about to jump up now.

Then for a while, wait for your skills to expire as you stare at Knoll for all of us.

And finally, the white light that was overflowing from her body subsided, and at the same time Knoll collapsed from her knees to the floor.

"It hurts, it hurts... Why..."

"You're not moving, but your body hurts without question"

"Are you all right, Mr. Knoll? This should ease the pain a little bit."

"That was cool, but it's like we're about to burn out the fire"

Knoll is crawling down the floor and crying out loud.

Sissha rushes right over to wake her torso and apply restorative magic.

Luna is saying plainly awful things as she looks at the collapsed knoll.

When they did say that, it looked like a shine when the incense fireworks burned out.

In the first phase of enhancement, it doesn't seem to make that difference.

Does that move have nothing to do with Knoll's inability to move?

If I hadn't moved, I could have just used my skills to prevent attacks or something.

"I'm sorry, I need you to keep me company today."

"Ugh... I wish I hadn't..."

After the recovery of Sisha, Knoll, who was able to move slightly, was seated in the chair.

I feel really sorry for you.

But I don't know until I try, and I can't help it.

"Well, then, the synthesizer's next."

"You were actually quite excited about that, weren't you? Looks like you can mix and enhance your gear and it looks like fun."

"I don't think I'm that convenient."

I'm going to put the white box, which is the synthesizer, in the corner of the room and mix something up just now.

The front part has something like a partially black panel that's going to show something here.

Hmm, do you want to put it in place?

First I decided to put in a big sword and boots of R stuff that doesn't matter what happens.

When I open the white box, there is a compartment in the middle so that I can put things left and right.

It clearly exceeds the size of the box, but when I put a great sword in the left side, it became a particle of light, and the left side of the box was filled with light.

The next time you boot to the right side, it turns into a particle of light in the same way and the right side fills.

Is this ready? Why don't you just close the lid?

"Is that it? It won't start, will it?

"Brother, there's something on here, isn't there?

Close the box and it won't move at all.

Estelle told me to look at the black panel and it indicated [this material cannot be synthesized with each other].

Apparently, these two can't mix.

Then after all the trials, I put in the Gear of the Gacha and the drop items dropped by the demon and finally put them on the black panel [Do you want to do the synthesis? Yes, No].

What I put in this one is a poison needle from the Great Sword and Stinger.

Imagine what you can do, a poison sword?

And when you press YES, [Do you want to consume 1 Demon Stone to prevent extinction? Yes, No].

Hmm? Anti-extinction...... 1 Demon Stone!?

Oh, what is this? Could the equipment disappear if it fails!?

No, I don't think so. You don't have to be so unreasonable about boulders.

Select NO this time, and the synthesizer will move out.

rattling and shaking for a while, and chin! and make a sound and stop.

The letters then appeared on the black panel.

[Failed. Equipment will be extinguished]

"Ugh!? Seriously, he disappeared!?

When I opened the box in surprise at the display, the light I had stored inside was gone.

Whoa... Instead of equipment, the material disappears with me.

"If it fails, is it extinct... but it seems to prevent it from extinguishing?

"But it hurts to consume one Demon Stone every time you do it."

Sure, I can prevent extinction, but it hurts plain to consume one demon stone at a time, as Estelle said.

Besides, it just stops disappearing, and it's not like we're getting more success.

In other words, if you want to synthesize successfully, you will synthesize it again and again by preventing extinction.

"It's better than vanishing."

"If you try to synthesize UR, it is imperative to prevent extinction"

Luna and Sissha also say that anti-extinction should definitely be done.

I know it matters. But I'm going to hesitate to consume demon stones.

But to what extent will the synthesizer succeed, and how many objects can be made?

To dispel that doubt, I kept mixing my Excalibur with Stinger's poison needle.

Demonic stone extinction prevention, the demonic material used only in the original equipment disappears every time.

And the 14th time to mix.

Finally the black panel showed it as [successful] and the status of the synthesized Excalibur came out.

――――――

● Excalibur 29

Attack +3290

Behavioral speed + 190%

Condition abnormality: Poison (small)

――――――

"I consumed 14 demon stones, and you're in shock."

"Shobo, don't tell me! We finally made it!

"If this were the corner of Behemoth, I'm afraid it would work better."

Damn, I can't believe it took this long to succeed......

Well, let's just say it turns out the success rate isn't very high.

The Demon Stone also had 60 extra Labyrinth rewards, and about 14 would still be fine.

But if this is the corner of Behemoth, it's a shame.

Rare demon drop items don't mix easily because the material disappears every single time.

I was hoping for a significant enhancement before I asked for an escort, but now I still don't think I can.
