Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

"Wow, that's fast. That's fast! It feels so good!

"Don't show your face too much through the window. I don't even know if I'm dead."

Through desperate dead ground, on the contrary, we were able to defeat even the Boss Enemies. We are now in an armored train moving at high speed.

Letty shouted out her face through the push-up window and cheered all the way to the backward landscape in an instant.

I was sitting in the seat opposite her and watching her shuffle like a child.

"High-speed armored track train Yata Glass. This is a hell of a thing again."

The siren that we heard shortly after we defeated the Beast Forest boss, a bear named Kaiser, came from this black train.

The giant train that appeared knocking down the trees in front of us in a daze sparkled the emblem of the three-legged raven and stopped in the middle of the square, opening the door and lowering the tarp. Autonomous or unattended in the front driver's seat.

"I was surprised when I came out of the woods, but this is nice and comfortable."

"Is Letty adapting too fast?

Letty lowers her hips on a soft red sheet and slaps the surface. Speaking of which, I haven't been able to get into this fury yet.

It's good to get on this train after the wolf and bear have been dismantled, but I'm nervous and restless.

"So-so. It looks like we can get to Susano right away with this, so let's get comfortable."

When we got on the train, we were presented with a display to choose our destination. Nevertheless, I chose Susano's name for the choice, and there was nowhere else to go. Then this train starts on its own, and it drives us through the woods.

"Come on, we're going through the woods!

Immediately after Letty's words, the world suddenly spreads outside the window.

It seems to have passed through the dense woodlands and gone out to the overlooking Grasslands of the Beginning.

"Ah, Letty, you shouldn't look out too much."

"Ahahah. I don't have any branches anymore and I can't hit them."

"That's not it, there are players gathered around the tracks."

This train called Yata Glass came while laying its own rails. That's why you're driving along a long rail on your way home, but that rail naturally stays in the eyes of other players.

Many players are interested in brand-new objects that have never been available on the bulletin board, and as a result we are being transported around the crowd.

Should it be embarrassing to catch sight of an unspecified number of people on a boulder, Letty shrinks her shoulders close to the aisle of the bench.

Well, what is it? Looks like we were the first to take down the boss somehow. "

That's right.

Letty doesn't really feel it either, so she spins words to bite it.

It was only a miracle named coincidence that a very ordinary party like ours could have gone one step further among the players in line.

Hey, Letty, look at this.

That's what I do with the inventory. The stone was small enough to fit in the palm of my hand. An item like a clear jewel that shines in seven colors with the addition or removal of light.

"What the hell is this?

I just checked using Appraisal . I had a bit of a demanding skill level, but when I used other materials to raise the level, I could only see the critical name and brief description. "

When she handed the stone to Letty, she picked it with her fingertips and put it up on her eyes. The color changes are very visible. The lights in the car refracted into stone and coloured her cheeks.

"It seems to be called the source stone."

"Hee hee, you... Source stone!?

Letty, who was listening to the light of the stone, jumped a little late and jumped big. I hurriedly wrapped the source stone that was about to be removed in my palm and grabbed it tightly.

"Please tell me such an important thing first!

I apologize to her with a half-laugh when she swells her cheeks and gets angry.

I don't have a hobby of expecting such a reaction from her.

"Source Stone is an item that I didn't know how to acquire before. We can use this to increase either the maximum amount of LP or the production."

"Did you drop this from Kaiser?

I nodded at Letty's brilliant words.

"Perhaps the Source Stone can be obtained by defeating the Boss Energy."

That's the point.

"Letty, I'll give you that stone."

Understanding my words, she listens well.

"Oh no! This is what Reggie got, so Reggie should use it."

"I got it because I had demolition skills. And without Letty, Kaiser couldn't have been defeated."

"But...."

Letty shook her head if she wasn't convinced.

I can't open my mouth when I'm dating her in a weird place. That's why I said the words I was preparing.

"If Letty gets stronger and gets the source stone next, will you give it to me? What we don't have right now is combat power, and the most appropriate way to boost it is for Letty to use the source stone."

Ugh

Roll up all at once to avoid objections.

She thinks with wrinkles between her eyebrows. The rattling and the interior of the car rocked several times, and she roared small.

"- I see. This is used by Letty."

Ah.

"But I'll definitely give you the next source stone."

I nod to her as she presses me to be careful. She then convinced herself to put the source stone in the inventory.

"You should put Kaiser and the source stone on the bulletin board."

"There's nothing to hide. It would be better to publish it."

The two agree on that point.

There are always brilliant players who try to hide it poorly, and if the fact is revealed, it will be bad reputation. I can't expect a return enough to take such risks on purpose.

"Ah, look, Mr. Reggie. It's time to go to Susano."

"Really. There's a hole in the wall, too."

When you look at the train route, a huge shadow of Susano appears. It's not too late at night, but the sparkling city seems vibrant.

The train approached the town one by one and eventually entered the interior through a tunnel that penetrated the barrier. The tracks continued to the center of town, into the central control area, and the body stopped in the building.

"Can you come all at once? Looks like we can get to Forest Square, and this is handy."

The air brake sounds and the train door opens.

When you get off the platform, it's not as popular as it should be.

"Is this the basement of the tower?

The most important of the central control areas located in the heart of Susano. The station seemed to have been built under a giant tower, also known as a landmark, which serves as the town's centre.

The bright campus is vast, and there are several stops besides where the trains we came from have stopped. The same kind of armored train was quietly parked there.

"I hate getting out of here...."

"Why?

Letty leans her neck when she looks at me like she accidentally bites a bitch.

"A lot of players are watching this train enter the basement of the tower. I don't think there's anybody on the home right now, but I think it's pretty packed outside."

"Oh, yes, it is."

That's what she thought. Likewise, the movement of the feet becomes heavier with the face down.

"I wish I could get out of here quietly...."

When I murmur like that, suddenly there is a loud noise coming from the front.

In surprise, a small manhole in the corner of the home slowly emerged.

"Come on, Mr. Reggie."

Stay back.

Letty hides behind me in fear.

She's stronger in combat, but that's not what I'm talking about right now.

While doing so, the manhole slowly shifts to the side, revealing an arm with a human skin.

"Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho. Ah, this is terrible. Just open it for now....."

"What are you talking about? You didn't open it, you opened it."

From the bottom of the hole comes the voice of a man and the voice of a girl.

Hanging a little on one side, I tilted my neck.

"... Length?

"Oops!?

When I murmur my name, my face pops out of the manhole.

The sinister bearded man stared at me and Letty brightened his face.

"You guys, Reggie and Letty!

"Oops!?

That's how he jumped out and hugged me as he rushed over.
