86-86. Departure




Well, in that case, good luck to you all.

 As we finished our preparations and left Vafol, we said goodbye to Rico for a while.
 Liko still has a lot of work to do in rebuilding the city, so she can't accompany us on our journey. I'm not going to be able to go with you on your journey because there are still things to do to rebuild the city.

''I still have to go to the library to find out about my imprint as well, so I'll be back here again.
Yes, I'll be waiting for you.

 At the end, Rico saw us off with a smile on his face.

 Apparently it's a long way to get to the Kingdom of Krenfoss, where Lukfana Forest is located.

 We didn't use carriages and other vehicles to get there, we walked.

 There's one reason why carriages cost money, but there's another reason why Lenya and I are quicker to go there in the flesh. Meku is slow, but since he's on my back, it's not much of a problem.

 There's also the advantage of being able to defeat demons along the way and strengthen our status.

 But anyway, just because it's so far away, it was really far away, so I spent 60 days before I reached the Kingdom of Clenfoss.

 If you keep moving for 60 days, you're going to get tired.

 By the way, I've absorbed all the demons I defeated along the way, and this brings my status to...

 Name: Tetsuya Takahashi
 Age 25
 Level 1/1
 HP 2302/2302
 MP 1765/1765
 Attack power 1455.
 Defensive value 1533.
 Speed 1456.
 Skill Points 2

 Skills【Corpse Absorption】【Appraisal Lv 5】【Meteorite (Meteorite) Lv 8】【Strong Acid Shot (Acid Shot) Lv 3】【Thunderbolt (Thunder Shock) Lv 4】【Sucking Thread (Absorbed Thread) Lv 2】【Flame Ball (Flame Ball) Lv 7】【Weakness Warding (Core Guard) Lv 2】【Dark Blast (Dark Blast) Lv10], [Liberation (Release) Lv2], [Legendary (Legendary Mode)], [Regeneration (Regen)], [Poison Hand (Poison Hand) Lv2]
 Resistance [Poison resistance Lv 5], [Lightning resistance Lv 5], [Flame resistance Lv 5], [Ice resistance Lv 3]

 This is what happened.
 That's an unbelievable breakthrough considering the early days.
 I actively raised the skill [Dark Blast (Dark Blast) Lv10].
 The most powerful one is Meteorite (Meteorite Meteo) Lv 8, but it's a bit difficult to use, so I decided to raise Dark Blast Lv 10.
 At Lv.10, it's a lot more powerful. With this, she can kill even the most powerful enemies in a single strike.

 Also, I've gained the Poison Hand, a skill that poisons anything it touches.
 This in itself isn't that strong of a skill. It's also the fact that I haven't encountered any enemies that I had to use poison to defeat on purpose.

 And there was one problem, after I acquired this [Poison Hand], I almost got another skill, but then I was told that I couldn't get any more skills.

 I asked Meku about it, and he told me that there's a limit to how many skills you can gain, depending on the individual.
 If you want to learn a new skill even though you've reached the limit, you can use a potion that releases the limit, or a potion that makes you forget about the skills you've already learned, both of which are expensive.

 Both are said to be expensive.
 But the Forgetfulness Potion is not at a level where I can't buy it, and there are some unnecessary skills that I'm not using at the moment, so I'm going to buy them with money next time.

 We continued walking around the Kingdom of Krenfoss, stopping once to check out the royal capital.

'So this is the royal capital of Clenfoss...'
There's a lot of guys like me.

 It was a town full of beastmen everywhere.
 There were many different species in Vafol, so naturally there were beastmen as well, but there weren't this many of them.

 Is it unusual for humans to come here, I can see a lot of them.
 By the way, Meku is being carried on my back, so I'm currently only seeing a plush toy.

 Because it is a town full of something very otherworldly, I would have liked to see more of the city, but today is just a stopover, I intend to leave as soon as the night is over.

It's a nostalgic feeling. Why do I feel nostalgic? I've never been to this city before.

 Raina said as she looked at the city.

 Come to think of it, Lenya said she had no memory of what happened before she fell into the Valley of Death.
 Could it be that she is from this country or something?

I'm not sure if you are from this country or not. You must get your memory back too.
'What? I don't mind. Even if I don't have any memories, I'm always happy when I'm with Tetsuya and my master.

 There didn't seem to be any lies in those words of Raina. She seemed as if she was not interested in the memories of the past.

''No, it can't be that way, can it?
Well if there's a clue in this town, why don't you look for it?
'You really don't need to remember it~. This time, it's a trip to undo my master, so I'll remember it later.
Well, I suppose you're right. But we'll come back to this place after this journey is over.

 I decided not to take a stroll through the town this time to try to regain Lenya's memory and ask her where Lucfana's Forest is.

 I heard that Lucfana Forest is located a little south of the capital, near a village called Toka.

 We stayed at an inn in King's Landing and headed to Toka.
