The next morning, having fulfilled an indescribable life experience, I had a normal breakfast. In the end, I was finally convinced that it was somehow typical of me and Lily, or something like that, and I went to bed.

Well, I changed my mind, logged in and opened the door to find Lily sitting upright.

'Tact!　I'm sorry!

Oh, dear. Aeon and her friends did this.

"Oh, come on. I didn't explain it to you. Come on, let's go in the room and have a little chat.

Uh-huh...

Well, we'll have to start over.

"I love Lilly. Her smile has always been a lifesaver. Will you continue to support me?

Lily hugs me.

'Uh-huh!　Lily loves the tact, too!　I'll be by your side forever and ever, Tact!

Me and Lily's ring glows and the info comes.

'Lily and Engage have been tied together. The Engage skill can now be activated.'

So now you can use the Engage Burst.

In case you're wondering, I kept my proposal quiet.

'If you speak, I'll have you eat a mystery dish made from a mixture of Setia's purification pills and Noah's cooking.

I will never tell you!

Here we go. When I walked out of the room, everyone was downstairs in the living room. They didn't seem to be listening.

'Did it work?'

Uh-huh. I got a proper proposal from Tact.

What is it?

If I tell you, I can't tell you because Lily's not alive!

When Lily ran off, everyone chased after her. Good grief. Then Kiki put down her mint tea and spoke to me.

'It was a great proposal, wasn't it?'

Kiki, did you hear me?

I'm the housekeeping fairy. I know everything that goes on in the house.

Kiki forgets that she's a housekeeping fairy because she's in her maid's outfit.

I headed over to Leaprich and told him I was going to be closed for a week. I asked him about the sales there and he seemed to have made quite a bit of money. I gave him a special bonus because of everyone's hard work. This is about as good as it gets.

After that, I warped to Master Skaaha's mansion and after entering the forest, I summoned Lily, Setia, Love Fire, Ix and Mir.

'Our objective today is wood. There will be some strong enemies, so it will be a good time to test out new weapons and strength. Then let's go!

"Oh!

First of all, I looked for wood and here's what I found easily.

Oak: Rare Level 7 Material Quality B
Also known as oak. It is used to make sake barrels and can also be used to make smoked chips. Also popular as a staff, especially among druids.

Yew: Rare Level 7 Material Quality B
Also known as aralagi. It is mainly used as a bow and arrow and as a staff. The fruit is sweet and can be eaten as it is, and is popular as a fruit wine. However, the non-fruits are poisonous and should be handled with care.

I see. I take out my axe.

"Let's do it.

'Oh, wait a minute. Mr. Takut.

Hmm?　What's wrong with you?　Meals.

Meir holds up a hand to the oak.

'Share split!'

Then Meir took a sapling out of the oak tree. Seriously!

That's how the dryads go about planting trees in the woods.

You don't just grow them. Meir then goes on to take out a sapling from the yew tree as well. Appraisal.

Oak sapling: rarity level 7 material quality B
An oak sapling. Planted and grown to become an oak.

Yew Saplings: rare level 7 Material Quality B
Yew saplings. If you plant it and grow it, it becomes a yew.

It's usually amazing. Well, it must be hard to grow them. Well, let's get back to it, shall we?

Leave the guards to me!　Mr. Takt!

I'm rooting for you.

Good grief. But now that he's finished proposing to me, I have no more enemies. I'll knock you off your feet in a heartbeat!

Three hours later... I finally chop off two of them... I always thought it was pretty reckless to take down a big tree with an axe. Then Ix reacts.

'It's a hostile reaction. The enemy appears to be a giant. It's coming our way.

The ones we've met before... now let's see if we can't fight them.

Ix.

Yes, Master. Energy cannon, charging now.

Magic power is stored in the energy cannon.

'Charge complete. Target supplemented.

Shoot.

Energy cannon, firing!

Ix's energy cannon, which had been made into a fire attribute, fires and pierces the surrounding trees, hitting Fomor the cow.

The love fire pulls out of the youkai and love moon and slashes at the dying Fomor.

''Yaaaah!''

Fomor fell before the sword dance-like attack of the love fire. Yeah, you two are getting stronger!

Then the ground vibrates. Well....you'll never learn your lesson again...

"Wood Dragon appears, coming from the right side of the love fire.

I'll take care of it!

Love Fire clawed through the dragon claws of the Wood Dragon that attacked Love Fire, and Love Fire set up a youkai.

''I'm going to slay you!''

Sunfire's sword blade glows orange and melts and burns down Wooddragon's body with heat. More arching flames entangle the Wooddragon, and the Wooddragon is engulfed in scorching flames.

The Wood Dragon screams, but it escapes from the flames by molting. Love Fire alone still doesn't have enough firepower. Alright.

''Lily, let's try an Engage Burst.

You want to use it?

'I don't know what it's going to be like, and that's how we're going to end the battle today, so we'll be fine. We're good to go, right?

'Of course!　Takt!

Me and Lily hold out the ring.

"Engage burst!

As Lily's figure became a golden light and was absorbed by my ring, an enormous amount of light was emitted from my body and the world was instantly dyed gold.

When the light clears, I was wrapped in a full-body golden armor. But it's not just golden armor. I had a golden tail, and on my back were golden dragon wings. Is this...Lily's?

Before I knew it, I had the Estorations and Scarlet Ring in my hand. Status.

What the hell. All of Lily's stats and skills have been overridden by me. Apparently, I'm going to try to rely on me for matching skills.

"Lilly, what's going on?

Lily's voice reaches my ears. Then Lily appears next to me, invisible. Oh, I see, so this is how it's going to be.

'Ah!　There's Tact. Wah!　Lily, you're a skeleton!　Skeletal!

Girls don't get to talk about dirty dancing!

'What?　Why?

...Is your mind going to go down the tubes... then the image of the Wood Dragon's attack will play in your brain. This is the star reading...the view Lily is seeing now?

'Tact!'

I know!　I got it!

Star-Sword!

The Wood Dragon's attack completely covers the image we saw earlier, and the attack comes in slow motion. Besides, there is a marker on the location of the Wood Dragon's dragon hole. I can easily duck the Wood Dragon's attack, and when I use the Star Sword, it cuts the Wood Dragon in both directions.

''Wow...''

No...this...I'm sorry, but the wood dragon isn't in the story. Perhaps it was the super senses that allowed me to see it in slow motion, and the markers I saw at the dragon hole were the effect of the dragon's eyes. If it's the power to see through the enemy's weaknesses, then in my case... this is a no-no if you think about it.

The slashed Wood Dragon revives and the reverse scale is activated.

But every single thing responds to the Wood Dragon's attack. The Wood Dragon's attack is insanely light. And strangely enough, I can understand that this attack is not a big deal.

This is the reason why my feint didn't work. If it's a feint, there's no point in feinting if you know it's a feint.

The wood dragon sucks in a breath of air when my attack doesn't work. Dragon Breath...I'll take it.

"Star armor!

The glow of the stars envelops our bodies. And the Wood Dragon's Dragon Breath is released. However, we only took a small amount of damage. That damage is quickly healed, and the status quo is null and void. This is a reversal of the position we're in now. Let's get this over with.

Breathe in. How does it feel?

"Dragon Breath!

A dragon breath was unleashed on the Wood Dragon, unmatched by any other dragon breath ever, and the Wood Dragon exploded. Then comes the Info.

'Ix's level has reached 20. Ex Machina's armament has been released.''

The armor is released and Lily returns to normal. Then I fall over.

'Tact!　Are you okay!

I mean, I can't move...

It looks like I've gotten on a roll. Demerit time is 24 hours... yikes. Can't see any weapons on Ix in this thing... sorry.

Oh, well, that's okay. After Lily and the others took it all apart, we found a bunch of old growth oak and pine needles.

We got a lot of wood that we didn't expect. I decided to return for the time being.
