After a while, Amy shyly distanced herself from him, and the atmosphere became somewhat uncomfortable, so Tsutomu retreated to escape. Then, as a distraction, they walked out into the darkened city and headed to the square where the live feed was being broadcast.

　From eighteen o'clock, when the workers finish their labor, the area around the single-digit platform is in full swing, and it's a festive affair. A stern man in a stall is roasting meat cut like dice on a griddle, raising his voice as the attack on the single-digit stand plays loudly.

　Tsutomu approached the stall as if he were drawn to the smoke of the stall and purchased a dice steak. Eight dice steaks, glistening with oil in a paper bag, are thrust into his mouth with a wooden skewer, along with some messily torn green vegetables.

　While picking at it, Tsutomu walks down to the lower watchtower, flowing into the crowd, while checking out the Red Demon Gang's exploration of the sixty-two levels on the first platform in the distance.

　The first, second, and third platforms were dominated by the major clans of the Red Demon Clan, the Golden Investigation, and Aldoret Crow, as usual, while the second and third armies of the major clans were attacking the canyon on the platform behind them. As Tsutomu proceeded to eat his crunchy dice steak, he looked at the monitors in order, and the PT that stood out to him was on the fifth platform.

　It's Aldrete Crow's second PT facing a group of orcs on the fifth platform. After folding his paper bag and putting it in his magic bag, Tsutomu approached the fifth platform while avoiding the crowd and looked up at the monitor, which was staring up at him, which was exceeding his own height.

　Until now, most of Aldoret Crow's PTs were specialized in gaining profits by defeating monsters without using potions and being prepared to fight with each other; the PT structure consisted of four attackers and one healer.

　However, Aldrete Crow's PT, which is currently reflected in the fifth unit, has only one attacker, a warrior. The others were a knight, a holy knight, a white mage, and a bard. This is clearly different from the previous PT structure.

　The other clan's warfare tactics are tested by those below them, and if their tactics are found useful, they are diverted upwards. Aldrete Crow has more people than any other clan when it comes to personnel, as it has a wide variety of races and jobs.

　Therefore, they can put other clans and PT tactics into action faster than any other clan. And as the lower troops began to learn Tsutomu's warfare techniques, which were passed on to them by the informants, there were many subversions that overtook the higher troops. This is because Tsutomu's battle method of dividing the roles of attackers, tanks and healers into three groups, and the healer jobs and tank jobs that had been smoldering in the army below were now on fire.

　The white mage and granting magician absorbed Tsutomu's warfare and flying skills like a dry sponge, while the knights, heavy knights, and holy knights, who were inevitably inferior in terms of offensive power, understood their role as tanks. He stopped thinking about producing firepower and started using skills to gain hate.

　Until now, they had been pushed into the corner by attackers taking up the width of their attackers, but they greedily absorbed the knowledge and practiced it, and managed to make it to a practical level. However, the essential attacker's mindset had yet to be changed, even in Aldoret Crow.

　The supremacy of attackers' firepower supremacy had been built up over the past few years, and many of them had a lot of pride in doing so. Particularly from the forty-oneth level, the attackers have been carving out a hierarchical strategy, and their intentions have been strong.

　So many of the attacker jobbers look down on the searchers of other jobs. It was still going to take a long time for such attackers to adjust to the jobs that had never seen the light of day before, due to their awareness issues. Sensing this, the informant man decided to change the composition of the PT in the first place.

　Two attackers, two tanks and a healer would inevitably result in excessive firepower. He decided to reduce the number of attackers and make a PT of one attacker, two tanks and two healers. And that PT was starting to show results.

　Although they hadn't been able to attack the tiers that well yet, their death rates and potion consumption were much lower than other PTs, and their profits were up. Furthermore, if this is the case, we can effectively utilize the human resources we had. Because of this achievement, an impromptu PT was formed this time, made up of high-level people, and that PT had conquered the canyon.


''Oops.''


　While Tsutomu couldn't help but shout at the PT of one of the attackers, he watched with a little nervousness as the PT was about to fight the orcs.

　The two knights in the lead against the five orcs released a combat cry to keep the orcs' eyes glued to the ground. Then the bard man behind them picked up a round ukulele-like instrument.


'Hymn of the Guardians.'


　As he utters this, his fingers begin to pluck the strings of the ukulele and produce a tone that inspires people. The Vit (sturdiness) of all the PTs who hear that tone increases by one level. The knight catches the orc's sword with his hand shield and fights back.

　The bard's unique job is that the tone of his singing voice and instruments can strengthen the entire PT or weaken the monster. And unlike the Protection and Haste skills that Tsutomu skips, these skills do not accidentally strengthen monsters.

　The bard also has a recovery skill, but it is less effective than the white mage and ash mage, and the job is more of a buffer. For this reason, bards are often thought of as a bard's job when it comes to applying support skills to allies.

　Then the warrior slashes the orc aiming at the knight from behind with his long sword. The orc next to him turns to the warrior.


''Shield bash.''


　The knight hits that orc with a shield bash and the attacker takes care of the orc while it is scared. A kangfugaroo, hopping in the distance to patrol in between the two orcs hit, notices the PT and is coming towards it, bouncing across the red mixed ground with a pitter-patter.


'Hymn of the Gale'


　The bard plays an additional AGI (agility) boosting skill with his own singing voice, increasing the AGI of everyone in the PT; the duration of the AGI increase by one step is also longer than that of Haste or Protection, and most importantly, there is absolutely no worry about misfiring the support skills.

　One of the reasons that stopped the mid-sized clan, a mid-sized clan mainly made up of white mages, from trying to extend the support skills that Wings of the White Strike flew, was the presence of bards.

　Of course, bards have their disadvantages. For example, if they interrupted a performance or song in the middle of a performance or song, it wouldn't be effective. Besides, the type of support skill they grant depends on the number of instruments they have. At her current level, a bard can only have one instrument. Therefore, she can only grant two types of support skills to a PT member: her own singing voice and the sound of her instrument.

　Also, if a PT member has lost their hearing, the bard cannot strengthen the PT member by using support skills. The same is true if the monster has no hearing, and the monster can no longer be weakened.

　So white mages have the advantage of being able to unleash a variety of support and weakening skills, while granting mages have the advantage of being able to unleash a variety of support and weakening skills. However, while white mage is still a bad luck job, granting sorcerer is an unfortunate job that is said to be the end of the searcher if you draw the job. The only famous granting magician is currently the man with glasses, the leader of the guard group.

　When Aldrete Crow's PT killed four orcs, a kangfugaroo that was approaching from behind the warrior kicked the ground and, using his own legs as a spear, charged and threw the warrior's back. The warrior was blown away by the surprise attack from behind, letting out the breath of his lungs. The knights seemed to panic at the sight of the situation, but they unleashed a combat cry all at once.


(I guess I did both of them... It's nice when you have the mental strength to spare, but it's not.)


　As Tsutomu grimaced as his own battle strategy was adopted and watched the battle unfold, the white mage man ran towards the blown up warrior. He then placed his staff on the fallen man's back.


'Heel.'


　The bruises under the warrior's clothes disappeared and were repaired. The warrior's quickly stood up and began to head down to the kangaroo that was flooding the knights, followed by the white mage's.


'Heel, heel,'


　The white mage heals the damage they've taken with his staff from behind the two knights. Seeing the scene, Tsutomu retracts his lips as he thinks.


(I knew the heels wouldn't fly. The Silver Beast's healers also said it wasn't very effective. I'll have to look into it in earnest after the Solit company mess is over. As I recall ... didn't you say that Camille was going to Silver Beast this Wednesday?　(Garum said he's going to be there soon, and I'll talk to the healer that day to find out why.


　Tsutomu, who decided to explore the cause of the flying heel's fading effect in earnest next time, watches Aldoret Crow's battle situation while thinking so.

　The knights are using counterattacks and skills to gain hate on the monster while receiving several sharp attacks from the kangfugaroo. Although the attacker was a bit underpowered due to the single attacker, the battle situation was quite stable for that.

　The holy knights and knights with high VIT received the monster attacks, and the bards supported them with their support skills. The knights' injuries were healed from behind by the white mage, while the warriors attacked the monsters as much as they wanted.

　After defeating all the kangfugaroo in this way, the PTs looked at each other and then explored the canyon, whispering something to each other while releasing a bit of tension.

　Then they encountered a group of wyverns and began to fight, but the white mage hit a wyvern tailspine aimed at the knight, leaving him numb and unable to move. Then orcs with numerous weapons also charge in.

　The white mage is unable to move. The knights also panicked and concentrated their attacks on the wyvern, leaving the orcs that had joined them to attack him unattended. This caused the white mage to be crushed in the head by the orcs and died. From then on, it was an all-out battle with the knight who played the role of the tank not using his hate-making skills, but the jittery, jittery wyvern and orcs torture him, and that PT was wiped out.


(Well, we'll see.)


　Tsutomu, who had been observing the situation, looked around at several platforms with a twisted mouth, and then returned home to Garum's room as it was a good time.

　The next day, I had a meeting with Garum, Camille, Amy, and the deputy guild leader to discuss the conversation with Solitte. The next day, I had a meeting with Garum, Camille, Amy and the deputy head of the guild about the interview with Sollit company.

　Camille also behaved with Tsutomu for a long time. The first time Tsutomu was treated like that, he asked Camille why, but he didn't know why. I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more information on this topic.


I'm sure you've heard the story from Amy. Amy told me about this. If you were to include an attacker in your PT, is it true that you chose Amy instead of me?
'It's true~. Tsutomu chose me~
Hey, Tsutomu. Why don't you look me in the eye for now?
"...Garm, Deputy Chief of the Guild.


　Tsutomu turned away from Camille, whose eyes were fixed on him, and gave the Vice Guild Chief and Garm a pleading look. The vice guild leader quickly looked away and Garum shook his head to the side.


''I, I don't understand the stories within the PT,''
It's my turn too...
Tsutomu!　If anyone could get in, it would be me, right?
'Of course it's me, isn't it, Tsutomu!　You told me yesterday!
It's a two-way street.


　Gutted, Tsutomu's right shoulder was grabbed by Camille. The squeaking pain made him wince and slap her hand in surrender.


'None of those things, okay?　It's a case of choosing one of them.
Hmmm?　Well, Tutom chooses me~?　Isn't that right!　I told you yesterday~?


　This time Amy grabbed her left shoulder. The long nails dug into her shoulder a little and Tsutomu let out a short scream.


Come on, man, come on. Come on!
Well, I already know the answer, don't I?　But just in case, I want to hear it from Tsutomu's mouth again~?


　If he chose the right, blood would be shed from his left shoulder, and if he chose the left, his right shoulder would be shattered. Tsutomu closed his thread-thin eyes in a cold sweat, and then uttered a single word.


''Flash!''


　After activating his blinding skills, Tsutomu managed to escape from the scene. However, as soon as he left the conference room, the two caught him and dragged him slyly to the room, where he was scolded for dropping excuses for too long. Garum and the deputy guild leader had accidentally slipped out of the room at that time.
