362 # 345 Thieves' Weaknesses and Emancipation Proclamation.txt




Kaito and the others were going to join us at school.

''What kind of enemy is coming to rescue Seigo?''

'Lots of chimeras, white giant homunculi, golems with armour and weapons. That, and several assassin-like NPCs with mysterious rathbones.

The three of us pulled back when we heard that. More importantly, they were invisible enemies, even with my identification skills, but let's not freak them out.

In the morning, I texted Kayo and the other sisters and they texted me as soon as I joined. They told me that others would be joining too. The reason for their participation was clear.

'If you don't participate, the level gap will widen!

Well, will it? Anyway, we're going to get our forces together. All we need to do now is pack up the plan.

School's over and I'm logging in. I'm going to talk to Mr. Cain at the Beast Demon Guild.

It's amazing that you've found your hideout already. But why did you talk to me about it?

'I've heard that the enemy behind this one is trying to wage a war between Fretia and Elixir Lapis.

"...well, I guess I will. So?

'I'm sure the enemy has something naughty in mind. I don't think that bad thing is aimed at the Sandwall Desert.

Cain thinks.

'Because you tried to get Fretia and Elixir Lapis to go to war with you, right?

Yes. If it's just my imagination, that's fine. Would you at least prepare for it?

Oops. That's a bad idea. It's my job to take the blame. I'll tell the Order of the Fleetia what to do.

Please.

Afterwards, I take the elixir lapis to Mr. Einstein's laboratory.

''Sorry to bother you. I'm Takt.

Come in.

Mr. Milese let me in. Mr. Einstein was thinking about something. Will he make some great invention or something?

"...why do men look up when they see a skirt on the stairs...

You're lying! Einstein is a physicist! Operation! This is too much!

Master, you have a visitor.

Huh? Oh! Tact! What's the matter with you?

Actually...

I'll explain what we've been up to.

'I see... that's a fair apprehension... wait a minute... Newton, Tact would like to talk to you. Come at once.

Then Mr. Newton came in really quickly. I'll explain again.

'That's all right. Let's talk to Edison about this one, too, and get ready to move with Fretia.

Thank you.

It's only right that we do. That chimera you talked about, the homunculus, was definitely the work of an alchemist.

The armed golem was the work of a researcher.

Huh? So is the chimera. I knew the homunculus was an alchemist... but I'll take the information.

'There are two types of chimeras, those summoned by summoners and those created by alchemy. The ones summoned by the summoner are not a problem, as you know.

Chimeras created by alchemy are forbidden by law. The method of forcibly alchemizing monsters can produce a variety of chimeras, but they run amok and quickly lose their lives. They can run out of control and quickly kill you.

What!

'It's something I can understand if I think about it. If you force the brains of multiple monsters to stick together and move animals with completely different bodies... it's easy to imagine that if you do that, their brains will reach their processing limits with each other and they'll soon die.

I've heard that some chimeras are rarely adapted to this state of affairs. That must be what Takt saw.

''Wait a minute. Is that okay for the summoned summoned beasts that were synthesized?

They laugh.

'Don't worry. I don't know the details, but I can tell you this. Synthetic summoning isn't just sticking together, it's magic to create a summoned beast from scratch.''

From scratch? Oh... is that what you mean by summons joining together after the summons have entered the magic circle? I'll ask him later. Let's get back to it.

"It is an adapted chimera, but it is not one that can be controlled in the flesh. Perhaps it can be controlled by the item.

So you're dealing with a Chimera in a runaway state... then it's going to be easier to avoid the items.

Next, information on the homunculus.

"The homunculus is not forbidden, and can be created through pure alchemy.

'They're almost immortal in the presence of an alchemist. Even if you defeat them, they'll immediately revive with alchemy. The only drawback is that they only work with simple commands. They're not even close to being automatons.

You're bragging. Does that make you an alchemist target?

Finally, an armed golem.

'...Think of what would happen if you armed a golem.

Even though it's difficult to move, full-body armament is pointless. I'm sure the researchers who created it are just trying to be cool or use it because it looks strong.

Well... that's a terrible idea, isn't it? You don't think the players are involved, do you? I'm pretty worried.

But now we have a general plan. The first thing we need to worry about is the chimera. I'd have to defeat it on my own. Moreover, I'd have to avoid the items. It's definitely a formidable foe.

The homunculus is aiming for the alchemist. After that, we'll be able to defeat them. The armed golem is a target.

All that's left is to deal with the bandits, rescue the kidnapped children and free the slaves. That's where Mr. Einstein will take out the items.

Slave Freeing Device: Important Item
An item that emits a special radio wave over a wide area and unlocks the collars of slaves within range.

Yup. What was that first crap? Wasn't it good that the process of making this was a good one?

It's a device that emits a radio wave that can destroy a slave's collar over a wide area. If you're going to have a lot of slaves, you might as well have an item that has a broad spectrum effect. Take it with you.

It certainly doesn't make sense if you're deactivating them one by one and blowing up their collars while you're at it. This is a nice item. I thanked Mr. Einstein for his help.

We'll discuss the bandits with the others. I came to Elixir Lapis, so I bought a shichirin and a charcoal stove. I didn't have a kotatsu...sorry.

After that, I logged out of Leaping after making a barrel bomb for production activities and just in case.
