Chapter 16 - Rank up to a Swordsman
When I placed my hands on the granite of the Oracle, letters were displayed.
『Do you want to rank up from a Samurai Swordsman into a Swordsman? YES/NO』(Oracle)
“Of course it’s okay! Of course yes, yes, yes!” (s.h.i.+njo)
I became a『Swordsman』from a『Samurai Swordsman』and gained new strength.
k.u.miko’s『Average Self-Restraint¹』is the same thing, as your ability also improves.
You should be able to hide and approach someone without being caught or seen.
Checking your current rank and ranking up occupations can only be done at the Oracle, so it was only by doing this that it was worth returning to the town.
Of course, you should also be sure to check the rank barometer as well.
『Maki Wataru (s.h.i.+njo Wataru)
Age: 16
Occupation: Swordsman
Warrior Rank: Expert
Acrobat Rank: Adept
Monk Rank: Artisan
Mage Rank: Adept』(Oracle)
The various ranks are growing well-balanced.
Almost as planned.
I think I finally reached expert rank are fighting desperately to that extent, but it’s not bad as I’m still just a single person.
Even if the level was gotten so soon, it isn’t boring with that.
After this, now I’m able to fight as a swordsman from one end.
Rather, I’m excited to think that I can still become stronger.
Oh well, such a margin can be said because it seems it hasn’t lost to k.u.miko yet.
Other than that, I just want to be the strongest swordsman in Geno-Real alone.
If I couldn’t rank up my job, I would just jump and dash into the labyrinth and I won’t go back for a week.
As I mentioned before, if you want to clear the game, you will need to push with numbers while bull-dozing with the character where you nurtured the specialty fields up to the expert level.
In this city, there should certainly be 100 or more students.
If one hundred people become an expert Mage, they can shoot fireb.a.l.l.s and will be able to break through by force.
Ten people might not survive when it comes down to the end of it, but a clear is still clearing it.
Even if we set a condition that everyone should clear so they won’t die, growing up to be an expert on average, I wonder if I can safely go to a party where I train my special skill to an intermediate level teacher.
If it’s only to clear it, you don’t have to raise it to the highest rank.
However, regardless of clearing while crying it’s useless to be stronger, it’s the essence of Geno-Real to train characters to the limits.
“I also checked it masu~.” (Ussah)
Following me, Ussah also attached her hand to the granite of the Oracle.
“Ah, I also ranked up from『Martial Artist』to『Kenpou²』desu~!” (Ussah)
As I was told she was already a lower-cla.s.s teacher, it was a little worrisome how strong Ussah was.
I saw Ussah’s data displayed on the granite.
『Alicia
Age: 15
Job: Kenpou
Warrior Rank: Lower-cla.s.s Teacher
Acrobat Rank: Adept
Monk Rank: Apprentice
Mage Rank: Novice』(Oracle)
Ussah is biased towards the physical direction considerably.
When moving together in a party, it becomes like this because it’s only good at work.
You can see at a glance that it’s a muscle brain who hardly uses magic.
Martial Artists are middle-ranked while specializing avant-garde, but in terms of rank,『Kenpou』lines up with k.u.miko’s『Average Self-Restraint』and my『Swordsman』.
If you are professional, it seems that she has combat experience as an avant-garde.
After finis.h.i.+ng ranking up at the Oracle, it’s the next shop.
First of all, around to the Weapons and Armor shop.
Sometimes I wanted to buy hard leather armor, because I wanted to change the gems that are unnecessary for Seji into gold coins.
“By the way Ussah, are you doing okay in such equipment? Isn’t it better to buy good equipment?” (s.h.i.+njo)
I know that weapons aren’t needed because she’s a fighter, but her armor is an ap.r.o.n dress.
So, I wonder if I can go to the 6th floor or is it too unreasonable.
I would like to say that she was going to be annihilated because of such a thing.
There are plenty of gold coins, so we have plenty of room for us to buy light equipment.
Certainly there are some perverted chicks that train fighters and ninjas to the utmost limit, walking around on the lowermost layer naked.³
Aside from me who’s playing adventure, I don’t think that Ussah is such a case.
It’s useless because heavy armor and small hands and knees will crush the strengths of martial artists, but it will become more secure if you attach a breastplate that doesn’t hinder the limbs or hard leather armor.
“Danna-sama, I will not enter armor here desu~. The size of my chest……” (Ussah)
Ussah gave a shameful blush and gazed downwards.
Indeed, it can be said that Ussah’s physique is pet.i.te and her b.r.e.a.s.t.s are large.
Far away from armor, even the uniforms of martial artists don’t fit her body.
The ap.r.o.n dress seems to be order-made, so there are only a few equipment options for Ussah’s body shape.
She is a victim of an extreme deformity that tends to be in old games.
If you didn’t make her real anyhow, you should have considered the character a bit more.
“That didn’t stop me from noticing it.” (s.h.i.+njo)
“Ah, but this ap.r.o.n dress is the equipment for the warrior of the Rabitto/Rabbit tribe desu~. It’s tough because it’s made of strong magic cloth desu~.” (Ussah)
Although I think about the sense of the rabbit tribe who wishes to purposefully treat ap.r.o.n dresses for proximity fighting, I decided to leave it at that because there seems to be no obstacle for practical use.
“Hey, Wataru-kun. Why are you wearing steel armor, I’m trying to buy hard leather armor.” (k.u.miko)
“Because, since this armor is heavy and doesn’t match my fighting style, I’m thinking of going to Seji.” (s.h.i.+njo)
“Well, then I should give you my chain mail. It’s light weight, and it’s more durable than hard leather armor.” (k.u.miko)
“That is true, but what about k.u.miko’s equipment?” (s.h.i.+njo)
“Because I have one more set of chain mail, I’ll wear that now so I can give you this.” (k.u.miko)
“Well……” (s.h.i.+njo)
k.u.miko has sharp intuition, had she noticed I was looking at her equipment with a desperate face?
However, I have no reason to accept it from k.u.miko.
When I was hesitating, k.u.miko whispered in my ear by turning her hand on my shoulder.
“You don’t have to hold back, because my stuff is also Wataru-kun’s stuff.” (k.u.miko)
“What do you mean……” (s.h.i.+njo)
“I have a lot of items, because there were treasure chests that weren’t open all the time when I was chasing Wataru-kun to the third floor.” (k.u.miko)
“Well, that is what I originally left untouched. If so, do you want me to share it?” (s.h.i.+njo)
I decided to obediently wear the chain mail that k.u.miko took off.
The performance is much better than hard leather armor.
Looking at me in that state, Ussah made a dissatisfied face somehow, and k.u.miko began to laugh and giggle.
“What’s funny?” (s.h.i.+njo)
“Because……no, I wonder if you feel the warmth of my skin?” (k.u.miko)
Well, it is k.u.miko’s used clothing.
Because the chain mail was worn a little while ago, the warmth of human skin and a gentle smell remained.
“I’m serious now, I don’t care about that.” (s.h.i.+njo)
“Well, that’s too late for us.” (k.u.miko)
“Somehow this woman is a mouthful masu~. Go away from Danna-sama, no-milk⁴!”
“Oh, you’ve done it, you meat rabbit.” (k.u.miko)
To k.u.miko who was clinging to me, Ussah’s attempt to touch had been repelled.
Attacking with a hostile intention will be like this in town.
I am starting to quickly learn that it is useless trying to arbitrate these noises.
While k.u.miko intentionally shuts down the noise contested by Ussah, I decided to concentrate on shopping.
As chain mail was obtained, I would only like to renew the hard leather knee pads, and the leather boots and gloves.
I also am the same as k.u.miko, as because it’s a type that emphasizes mobility, the armor is good with equipment of this degree.
“Well, shopping is over, k.u.miko. Where is Seji?” (s.h.i.+njo)
“As usual, I think he’s training in the blacksmith.” (k.u.miko)
Well, he’s training every day like I said to.
It isn’t as enough as training in the back of the dungeon, but if he did it seriously he should have improved considerably.
I am looking forward to the growth of my friend who I haven’t met in a while.
What if his warrior rank rose too much, and Seji’s body became muscular?
That would be a bit much.
“Danna-sama, hey!” (Ussah)
“What?” (s.h.i.+njo)
While I was walking while thinking about such things, Ussah had suddenly pulled my arm.
“Do humans do the act of breeding outside?” (Ussah)
“Eh……” (s.h.i.+njo)
Ussah was looking at the park.
It’s just an area where vegetation grows in a small square, but it makes people’s eyes calm.
There is a spring in the center of the park.
It’s the same as the dungeon, only fresh water is available for free.
It can also be said to be an important spot to support the lifeline.
There was an unusually pink atmosphere, and it had become a lifeline in a different meaning.
A couple, a couple, a couple……besides a bench, a couple of men and women are eating on a sheet on top of the gra.s.s.
It’s cute because they are kissing and hugging.
Vigorously clinging to each other and intertwining violently, perhaps even disgruntled people are saying “is it not in yet?”.
From the depths of the bushes with tall weeds growing upwards, “No good” and “A~hh”, I heard these sweet voices that don’t clearly say yes or no, and a desperate cry was also heard.
Come on……
“What’s this, hey k.u.miko.” (s.h.i.+njo)
“It’s as the small rabbit there says. Everybody sometimes have stress acc.u.mulated, if there is a crisis in their life, humans will want to breed. Because there is a shortage of gold coins, ordinary students don’t have the money to borrow an inn.” (k.u.miko)
Because it isn’t possible to bother to pay the high inn bill to meet secretly, they say breeding in the park is okay.
If this momentum keeps up 10 months later, the population of the city that was decreasing may also increase.
“Ha ha, breeding outside isn’t good…… Ahh, there is no such thing before as everyone’s watching. Such embarra.s.sment is a way that humans breed desu~.” (Ussah)
In her mouth she said she hated it, but in Ussah’s azure eyes, a pink heart mark emerges.
I don’t know whether she’s been doing it deliberately or unconsciously, but she has been pressing my arms against her big b.r.e.a.s.t.s since a while ago.
By the way, as I have said before, the Rabitto/Rabbit tribe has grown too much and is likely to ruin the world, it’s the tribe with a vigorous desire to reproduce.
It is a poisonous sight for Ussah’s eyes, so I wanted to pa.s.s by quickly, but there was one point to worry about.
A notice propped-up stating『Use prohibited without permission from the Student Council』stands on the fountain of the park, which was an infinite water source.
“k.u.miko, what is the Student Council?” (s.h.i.+njo)
“It’s the organization that Vice President Nanami made in the town. Some people are opposed, but in front of you it is supposed that everyone in town is partic.i.p.ating. It’s a mutual help organization that everyone uses to manage parks and adventurer’s gold coins so that they can spread it equally to everyone.” (k.u.miko)
It seems that he made the Student Council as the management organization of the town so that Shuichi Nanami always keeps in mind the fact they are students of Yuan Academy⁵ until everyone can return to j.a.pan.
