I came to the Freetia gate.

"Hmm~. Hmmm~

With Lily, Livina and Bran... it's impossible to convince them to go together, and after a rock-paper-scissors game to see who will go with them, Lily wins and is in a good mood.

Livina and Bran can fly, so they're escorts and Hix does the rest.

We flew through the air and headed for the village of Verdore at once.

Then there was a large number of monsters down there. Identify.

Ghoul Lv13.
Normal Monster Target Active

It's still a ghoul...but I hate to be through. The cotton is calling us!

Okay! I've seen the village of Verdore!

That's when I thought that. Suddenly, when I felt the wind from behind me, Hix stopped moving.

'Ta, tact!　There's a strange wind from below.

We can't go any further!

Libina and Bran were right, there's a strange wind developing from below and we can't go on! What the hell?

I mean, this isn't a sucker!

Livina is right. I'm being sucked in by something on the ground. And gradually the attraction is getting stronger. This isn't good!

Hicks, we're dropping!　Livina, Bran rise!

Okay!
I understand!

Once we were each separated, the force of attraction came after us.

As a result, Livina and Bran are free.

'Yes!　I've lost my inhalation!

But the Lord is coming for you!

'If you're free, attack the enemy to keep them out of sucking range!

I send out instructions in sync, and the two of them find the enemy as instructed and attack.

''Tenrin!''

Bran flies a celestial wheel. But it has no effect on the mysterious enemy and we keep getting sucked in.

I caught the enemy visually, too.

Gratney?
?　?　?

The enemy was a chubby, chubby ghoul, one size larger than the ghoul.

Its gluttonous belly opened up, causing a wind to be sucked into its belly.

Libina's fascination didn't work, and she was forced to make a physical attack.

''Dehyaaaah!　Libina Kick!

Then Livina's foot buries itself in Gratney's skin and Gratney's face looks at Livina.

'Wait!　Wait, wait... you're not going to eat me, are you?

Gratney's mouth opened in an impossibly human way, and Livina's body was sucked into her mouth.

'No!　I can eat it!　Hey!　Bran!　Help.

I'm sorry.

'Abandoned!　Oh no!

Livina has been sucked in. We're no strangers to this. Hicks is nearing his limit... something better...

No items. No equipment. No money.

Three levels of game over utilization.

I knew I shouldn't have gone outside during Despena. Lily behind me calls me, and when I turn around, she smiles and says, "I'll be with you when you die.

'Tact...I'll be with you when you die.

Lily has been flagged dead! We were sucked back into Gratney's belly and back to death.


I woke up in bed and quickly re-logged in. Despena is pointless for me, as I was originally in Despena.

Then I call them all out.

'Tact!　Bran left me for dead!

Livina is angry, but I defend Bran.

'Livina, don't blame Bran...Bran would have done it if he could have helped. This time the fault lies with me for trying to go out in a weakened state.

Mmm... that's a bit of a selfish thing to say, but then again, we were selfish too, so we didn't say anything.

As everyone is depressed, I ask Bran.

'Bran... do you think you can beat that guy at full strength, without a trump card?

'It's hard to say without seeing it fight. But if we can exploit that sucking weakness the Lord found, I think we can beat it.

Bran says the only thing wrong with him is that he can't move while he's inhaling. He's been coming after us this whole time. Then we should be able to defeat him if we attack him like we did before.

But there's one thing I'm worried about.

"First of all, this is a powerful enemy that I can only identify by name. Furthermore, Libina was defeated by another attack while she was in the middle of a suction attack. In other words, if you think you're defenseless and underestimate it, it will happen again.

It's true... but I'm changing my mind.

Yeah. You need to change that perception first. That Gratney is no small fry. Why she targeted me is a mystery to me, but if she targeted the summoner, she's not an idiot.

'I'd better share the information with everyone... there doesn't seem to be any requirement for him to appear, and if he shows up anywhere a ghoul appears, then we've got a big problem.

As I was doing this, Hephaistos came to me. He has a sword in his hand!

'Are you busy?　After the new forge was completed, I immediately created the sword I had ordered and looked at it...

It's all right. I see your new forge is complete.

'Yes!　It's a little uncomfortable because it's suddenly so wide, but it's so comfortable!　Oh, do you want to come and see?

'Ah. Let's see your sword at the new forge, shall we?

So we headed to the Hephaistos forge. It's a brickwork, columnar house. It has a chimney.

Once inside, it's like a real forge. It's a house all at once from the basement of the house. It definitely feels spacious.

And by the way, there is a bed in here at Hephaistos' request. He says you get a better sleep if you're surrounded by weapons.

Well, everyone's got their own tastes. If that's what he wants, I'll give him that.

Then, here is the completed sword. It's the first time we've done this, so if there's anything you like about it, please let me know.

'Oh. Love fire.

Yes!

We both receive the sword. When we appraise it, this is what it looks like.

Leaping's Silver Sword:: Rarity 5, Sword Quality D
Weight: 20 Endurance Value: 55 Attack Power: 35
Additional Effects: undead suicide attack (large), disables undead revival
A sword made of silver. It is lighter than iron. The silvery blade of the sword attracts those who love it. However, compared to other swords, it's not specialized in cutting things. The emblem of Clan LEEPLING is burned into the sword's edge.

The first thing I thought when I held it was that it was light. Considering the sword's weight, it may be a bit difficult to use.

The lightness of the blade makes it faster, but it loses its power. That is also written in the appraisal results.

I pull out my sword. The silver-colored blade is beautiful. It's more like a work of art than a weapon.

When I look at Koibito, he is still twisting his neck.

''As I thought... it was no good...''

The workmanship is superb. I'm still concerned about the weight.

That's it!

Love Fire looks refreshed as he can see the discomfort.

'Is it the weight... but...'

I know. I'm the one who asked for the silver. Hephaistos is not bad. I still think swords should be made of steel.

To be precise, Japanese swords and swords made in Japan are made of a steel called Tamagoto.

Is it possible to make them by ironing? I'm not sure if this is possible, or if you can get this item, but there's nothing I can do about it.

I'm sure there's no other problem with that, so let's just use it.

Me too!　Thank you!

After thanking Hephaistos for his help, the field is being cleansed. If Gratney comes out during the attack on the Young Tree Forest, it's a nuisance.

People don't come, so I warn them via email. I'll take the mint quest because I'm going to get it.

Then you'll be given 10 large buckets of mints along with the weeds. I want to look at it and say something.

Just collect the mint!

Well, it's a quest, so it's no use... we all split up and work on it. Soon after, an incident occurs.

'Sister Lily!　It's a weed!

'What?　It's mint. Setia.

'It's a weed, for all intents and purposes!　Aah!　And Nowa and Livina, too!

Setia stops Nowa and Livina.

'...It all looks like grass.

I agree with Noah!

Lily, Noah, and Livina couldn't tell the difference between them when I told them about the mint.

'Ugh... my nose is going to turn...'

I'm sorry... I just can't...

"I don't like the smell of medicine either...

Love Fire, Waxx, and Sephone are down because the mint smell is no good.

We end up working with Aeon, Setia, Ix, Rian, Bran, Luna, Iyuki, and Mir.

Then Mel and the others came. But we don't have enough people. Mirai and Kego are gone. It looks like they've retreated. Mel and Lecca are talking.

"A huge rock flew in from the sky...

I just learned the horror of the catapult...

More giants have appeared and apparently rushed away in a hurry. Mel goes to check it out.

'The boss is Gigas, right?'

'If the library's data is correct, then so be it.

'Then maybe that rock was a Gigarth attack...'

That would explain the Giant's sudden appearance. I'll tell you what happened to Glatney.

"It sounds like Gratney was the one who attacked us.

'Tact thinks Gratney will show up at the liberation battle for the young tree forest, right?

'It's just a hunch. In the library, a monster that was supposed to come out of the Deepett Wilderness came out in a place that had nothing to do with it at all. It just seems to mean something.

Then Mel and the others laugh at me.

'Why are you laughing?'

I'm sorry. I just thought I'd become a total gamer.

Why are we talking about gamers? Recca explains.

'That's what tact feels like, that's what this game is all about. If you feel it, you're a great gamer.

Nugu... is that how it works?

Then Mel looks at the large number of buckets.

'Is that maybe a mint!

Yeah. I found a quest in the Farming Guild. Fresh mint tea is easy to make, so I took the quest.

Oh, really?

Mel makes a spoiled sound. 'That doesn't work for me.

'If you want it, buy it,'

Stupid!　You know I like mint tea, habitually!

My sister Kayo can't drink coffee, so she drinks tea and mint tea a lot. I'm such a fan of tea and mint tea that I blend them together.

I'm a coffee drinker, but I don't hate coffee, so I chose this one. I'm even thinking of selling it to Mel.

While we're chatting, Ruin and his friends arrive. They say they have found a quest that may have something to do with the Yellow Ossa Mountains.

Quirky. The content seems to be a quest to help the fox Serian Beast. A number of players have already found it and are doing the quest.

Mel and the others who heard about it are going to challenge it tomorrow. I paid Leka to bring the beast to the village of Verdore tomorrow morning.

After finishing the mint quest, I completed the quest and was given some mint seeds and mint tea leaves.

The first thing I do is brew a cup of mint tea for Lily and the others who were waiting for me.

Fresh Mint Tea: rare 3 Cuisine Quality D
Effect:Restore 10% of fullness, release fear, release fascination
Mint tea created with raw mint. It has a calming effect on the mind.

This is an unexpected effect.

Lily and her friends had different tastes. Meat lovers seem to be no good, while vegetable and fish lovers are okay.

I'll take the money that Lewin has decided to give me, and I'll treat everyone to some of them. Then Mel and Yuna say what they think.

'A little harsh fresh mint tea?

'Yes. But I think this can be fixed by the way it's brewed.

Sorry for my poor work! I'm a coffee guy! In case you're wondering, when Mel and the others brewed it, it was indeed delicious. But...

That's low quality.

War broke out. In the midst of all this, Heliya, who was drinking with me, brewed a mint tea that tasted better than Mel and the others, with the same effect as I did. It was a disastrous defeat.

''I'm here!

Well, it's just a coincidence...

If I can make a good mint tea by accident from the beginning, I won't have a hard time. I'll have Heliya brew the mint tea from now on.

We're going to break up with this today, so I just finished the production process and logged out.
