Chapter 33: Practice part2

“— Blackhair Bind”

Raven hair flies out fro Skeleton But this ti around the Monster

“Yes, braiding is a go!”

Yes, what ca Blackhair in its newly braided glory

In the fight with the Great Frog,With only those few strands of hair coiling about, a Monster can all too easily shake it off

At present,useful in battle, that too, only at restraining the eneame where I can put in accumulated Skill Points to the Skill I want to improve

That being, how does this strengthening work anyway? I’ve thought of three ways

Nuranted powerful abilities The so called levelup But, this ht to get a new Skill, orGod knohen I’ll get to power up, literally

Nu a Skill, I’ll attainsyste, and even if it’s not the case, there’s always the saying that practice makes perfect

This not being mere coincidence is proved by the existence of Hirano-kun and Nishi+yaic Though there’s no dra their Skills the that is indispensable in the rush of battle There’s , or more like, from here onwards, it’ll likely become absolute necessity

And last but not least, the enuity This is where, even without the ability’s strength or effect changing, using it in a different way or two can lead to th to throw stones, can also be said to be one forenuity

With that,the strands of enuity, that I have just successfully implemented The result is plain as day Rather than separated strands of hair, all of thehness

“Hmm, so it really worked huh”

“You did it, that’s great Momokawa-kun!”

Futaba-san’s praising words, honestly feels great

Incidentally, the Skeleton restrained with the braided bind, was promptly pulverized with a blow from Futaba-san’s battle-axe

“It kinda sounds obvious, but the ie is pretty important”

When I gave it a try without thinking too hard about it, it was a splendid failure But then, after thinking about how braiding works, and actually trying it a bit of e, the result is voila

“Alright, next is the length and nuet crackin’!”

It’s been several dozenaround with Futaba-san in the passages Peeking through roo in an RPG

“Haa looks like this is it for now”

Results: hair length extends to 22, the length of each is cut to half, that is, to 1 meter, is what I’ve determined

And after binding and playing around withcarefully, wecruel, but I can explain it away such that this is all for science Iat us with the intend to kill so why not

“It’s a to be really so!”

“N-no~, you flatter me, ahaha”

With the joyous sht-forward co I’eneral, so with the co in on rapid-fire, it’s really

If she keeps this up, I reat at cooking, plus co to become a machine that produces hopeless men

“A-Anyway, I’ll test out Mud Doll next”

“Yeah, go for it Momokawa-kun”

Being watched over under a gaze like that of an affectionate ether, and concentrate on Curse practice

This ti other than mud More like, can’t I use Monster materials to ht and goal

The uselessness of the Mud Doll, is obvious looking at the battle with the Great Frog I need to at least increase the resilience a bit more, or else it won’t even serve as a distraction Currently, it only a street perfor

However, if it is the case that, depending on the er all at once Now, arise, est Servant! [1]

(TN: Servant is in Engrish desu like in

)

“ Ah, there’s no mud”

Is what I realized after gathering the re thely rising tension, upon such a reality, underwent a sharp decline

The Curse’s na it as a production ele to fruition

“So you really need the mud?”

“Yeah, with a skeletal structure froe I had in mind We have water, but if only I had just a bit more sand—”

“Uh huh then, Ei!”

Contrary to the gentle cry, the sounds of destruction were brutal What the, I thought but then saw, bashi+ng her battle-axe into the wall in full swing, there was Futaba-san

“Ah, look, I did it Momokaka-kun! There’s sand now see!”

What Futaba-san struck apart, was the stone ith the thickness of a cinderblock The blade of the axe had eaten through the wall, reaching the other side, froround sand spewed out

Speaking of the dungeon’s construction, wea wall, you’ll be presented with the soil bed beyond, would be the correct in theory But for actually testing that out, you’d need to get past those unreasonably tough walls

“T-thanks”

Though I continue to be astounded at how naturally she wields her Berserker strength, since I got what I wanted, I can do nothing but thank Futaba-san
