Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

Three days have passed in real time since the maples landed on the planet Izanami and began to act together with Fu. Both of them are busy even in real life, so the time will only fit for a few hours, but it will be delayed to about a day in virtual reality.

Inspired by the development of full-dive VR technology, Maple and Fu refined their skills, expanded their equipment, and even stepped into the [Forest of Beasts] called Zone 2.

It's coming!

"Come here!"

Maples run like the wind through the woods where trees are unstable and fallen trees lie. A rough exhalation looms from behind, and a powerful footstep echoes through the rotting soil.

The maple runs without waving its gaze, and jumps out into the middle of the trees. It was Hu with the big frying pan that was waiting for him.

"Hey, ahhh! Hotpot slap!

Fu frying pan with the maple. The instantly heated iron pan turned red and slapped the face of the Forest Wolf who was chasing the maple.

The scream of a wolf rises with the sound of scorching hair. In addition to the blows, Forrest Wolf is burned in the face and points his sharp fangs at Fu.

"--" Dual Slash! ""

However, the sword slashes the wolf's flank before its fangs reach the girl. The two slashes accurately captured the weaknesses, and the bright red effect burst out.

"Hey, ahhh! [Meat slap!]"

Forest Wolf collapses into the air and rolls to the ground. But I still hadn't run out of HP.

Soon, Huu approaches and hits the bottom of the frying pan. The sound of the flesh crushing, the wolf was not even allowed to fight back.

"Holy crap! Let's do this together!"

"I don't think it's the power of a frying pan..."

Seeing that the wolf was completely stuck, Hugh sparks his white teeth. With the blood of his sword in her sheath, Maple approached her.

The two of them changed their appearance from day one, showing that they had grown a lot from their beginnings.

Fu is wearing red Chinese-style clothes that emphasize ease of movement over defense. She carries a backpack of cooking utensils and lanterns on her back, and a frying pan on her waist belt.

Maples are lightweight for heavy luggage. She is wearing a tinted rainbow and white taoist attire, and a blue sheath sword on her waist. Underfoot is also a thorough Japanese dress, including footbags and grass.

I'm grateful that the combined techniques of [cooking] and [cane] skills are quite easy to use.

He pulls out the dismantling knife at his waist and says as he pulls down the wolf that he just defeated.

In the last few days of play, she has also developed her < Camp > skill. You can now cook outdoors as a bonus, and new techniques have awakened as battles break out in the process.

A technique that uses cooking utensils like a frying pan as a weapon, and the contents are specific to the dish. Because it is a composite technique, the balance between power and consumption LP was good and easy to handle for the initial technique.

There's also a temple called Battle Chef structure.

"That's right." I'll try to do that, too. "

Sometimes it is excellent as a golden measure at the beginning, and many players take [cooking] skills while fighting. For this reason, the techniques of using this cooking equipment as a weapon were also well known.

"But isn't that frying difficult to use?" There won't be enough time or attack. "

The maple said, wary of its surroundings.

The reason why this technique, known as cooking combat, is excellent is because of the strict triggering conditions. The frying pan has a shorter range and a longer delay than the heavy frying pan. It is difficult to use because of its special shape.

They weren't built to fight from a frying pan in the first place, so their original attack power was low.

But Fu, that's not true, "he shakes his head.

"Well, it's small, and I need to get used to it." I usually shake the frying pan even realistically, so I wonder if I can't use it. Besides, there's also Maple King. "

The boulder should be called the cook's daughter, or Hu's frying pan was in the hall. Even in the previous wolf battle, the maple was a bit of a punch.

And as Hu said, she's not fighting alone. Maple swords have a wider range and are faster than frying pans.

Maple swords are the main source of damage, and Fu's frying pan is responsible for interfering with the occurrence of state abnormalities such as "burns" and "stuns". Since such a division was possible naturally, the [Beast Forest] was able to fight without any problems.

“What about you, Maple? From my point of view, it's an amazing swordsman."

Hugh answers the question.

The maple also changed its equipment from the early "beginners' katana" to the "blue-sheathed sword".

“There's nothing I can't use. But I'd like a little more weight and length. It's like a toy compared to seriousness after all."

"I've touched it seriously..."

Well, a little bit.

Maple answered vaguely in response to Hu's dazed words.

If you say that you are honestly the owner of the air-eye stream and you use it seriously on a daily basis, you will be revealed at that moment. I tried to reveal it several times, but I ended up hiding it.

At the moment, she thought of Maple as a kendo boy who went to the kendo field in earnest.

"However, if you strengthen it further, you won't have enough skills..."

Maple blinks his eyebrows and strokes the handle as he utters his words.

The "blue-sheathed sword" was quite impossible in terms of money, but it was a very close substitute that he could handle in terms of performance.

The required level of skill was 21, and he was only 17. I hadn't been able to fully exploit the performance of my sword yet.

As far as I'm concerned, it's amazing to be able to fight in the Beast Forest at that level.

The recommended Combat Ability level for the Beast Forest is at least 20. This time, Fu's [Staff Magic] skill exceeded 20, so I just came to see how it went.

And yet, Maple took the initiative to offer a bow, and brought a forest wolf roaming the forest.

"If one is not enough, why don't you make it two?" What are you talking about?

Fu's joking words. However, Maple put her finger on her chin with interesting eyes.

"I see. Now, do you need a little more of Blue Blood's Armor..."

"Are you really going to dual swords!?"

Looking at the maple that starts to think seriously, Huu's eyes widened. Even though it was amazing to just use one sword in a familiar way, I didn't think it was even ordinary people if I could use two swords.

"For once, you can use one weapon at a time." If you have two swords, it's within the range of defense. "

"Heh, heh..."

Fuuu no longer knew how to react, he just made a dry voice. Even though she had only been dating for a few days in virtual reality time, she had already begun to realize the incredible power of the maple.

Somehow, you really look like Toka-san.

"Geez! Fuuhhh. I-I don't know... I don't know. I don't know."

Maple's face turned away from Fu, who turned to look at her with respect. They look alike, but they have nothing in common. Before that, she was a loving disciple that Maple had brought up from his hand.

Isn't Toka a one-stop shop?

"Looks like it now." It seems that until a while ago, there was also a dual sword current.

Both Hu and Maple have read all of Ledge's updated blogs. Among them, it was written that Torka -- for some reason, past articles had black bars hiding behind his eyes -- was using two swords. However, a recent article also notes that she is returning to a sword style and using a bigger sword than her back.

"Well, dual sword currents change shape more than single sword currents, and the likelihood of being found out is also reduced..."

As a matter of course, the treatment of swords other than Toka and maple techniques is naturally a matter of empty eye. Therefore, it is possible that someone will notice that the two of them are doing the same movement, and he was afraid of it.

If you take the dual sword current as the basis, you can also distinguish it from the tokas that have the unified sword flow as their main axis, and you should be slightly less worried about revealing your identity.

Maple? The wolves are already dismantled.

"Whoa!? I'm sorry, I was just thinking."

Whispering in my ear, I jumped up and looked back. Fu standing behind the maple leaned his neck.

"Alright, let's hunt a little more." Even if it's a double sword, we have to make money. "

That's right. Let's eat some wolf meat first.

Fu puts up a frying pan and suggests to the maple that loudly deceives.

Now she has developed her < Camp > skill and is able to build a bonfire. In other words, you can cook on the field.

She wanted the first prey she got in the first Beast Forest to be eaten by herself.

"Oh, that's right." Let's do that. "

"Alright, well then, leave it to oneesan!"

Looking at the nodding maple, Hu stretched out his chest.

Set up a kindling and put the frying pan on the Gotoku. I used the technique to throw in freshly obtained wolf meat, salt, and some spices.

"That smells good."

Isn't it a bit different from roasting chicken and rat meat?

Hu's [cooking] skill level also improved, and he was able to make more elaborate things. Rather than just roasting meat, you can taste it with seasonings.

Suddenly, a fragrant and appetising fragrance spreads through the forest, and the fallen tree with its hanging maple unexpectedly strokes its belly.

Yes, I'll do it again!

Soon, the dish is complete, and Hu sits next to the maple with a plate.

It's a simple grilled meat, but it looks just as delicious.

Thank you.

Please have some ~

And the maple quickly caught up in the pieces of flesh.

The baked meat was covered with spices, and the nasal cavity and oral cavity were filled with good aroma. Oil and gravy come together and flow through your throat. After that comes wolf meat overflowing with wildlife.

The muscles are stiff and it is difficult to chew.

Yeah, yeah. Maples are good to eat, too.

“Eating the animals I hunted myself has a different flavor.”

Seeing the nodding maple as he moved his mouth, Fu began to eat with a happy face.

After the battle, the meat is eaten in the woods surrounded by trees. It's just that there's a delicious taste that's hard to put into your tongue.

Besides, Carnivore's Yakiniku also has a Buff that increases Attack. It would be useful for future hunting.

"Feast, my dear."

"Poor thing. Ha, it was delicious!"

In an instant, they finish eating and crush the plate.

With his belly filled, Fu clears the fire and sets up a frying pan. Maple also put his hand on the sword and looked around.

Well then, I'll pull it again appropriately.

Roger that! Be careful.

Fu waved the pan and saw off the maple as it ran off in a light footsteps.

The two hunting lasted just a little longer.
