Chapter 297 - 22: Bukubukuchagama! (2/2)
”So I'm guessing this Dabura person won't be able to join in? I couldn't follow much but I could at least make that out.”
”Nope. It was an experiment to say the least. Belle, thinking logically to tackle this Raid, it's likely its weak to Fire and Light. We got Light covered. You're starting to dabble into Fire and Water yourself right?”
”Sure am! Besides the Martial Monk I started with, I was able to evolve it into Dark Knight. After that I was able to pick up Fire and Water Elementalist Job Classes. I may go for Dark Elementalist next to further support the Heat I've been trying to create. Plus that will help set up illusions and give me access to more debuffs!”
”Heh, looks like you got your path squared away then. I will need to look at your status before we dive into this raid. The same goes for you, Tabula. You won't be against it will you?”
”Not at all. In fact I'm all for this. Once we know our exact numbers it will help us strategize better. We cannot underestimate our first Raid. I've come to learn what skills you two used during this past year but we can never be too sure.”
”Right? Glad we're thinking along the same page then. As such I've reached a decision to who our fourth member will be. I will give Miya a call.”
”So it is Sister Miya then. Makes sense, she is a Fire Sylph in Yggdrasil. Her firepower should be quite high. I'm sure she'll set this huge ice castle ablaze!”
”Heh, if she's capable of doing that I'll gladly watch it. I'm going to go give her a call.”
”Okay!”
Concluding their conversation, Tabula saw Nao pull up his menu window. Nao navigated to his Friends List. After opening his friend's list, Tabula saw many names were on it. Comparing that to his own, it seemed Nao did indeed know quite a few people. Tabula barely had any friends on his own list.
It would eventually get filled with the names of the 41 Supreme Beings, but that would be for the future. It's not like Tabula was a loner. He just was picky on who wanted to be on his list.
But Nao was different. He had the girls already added.
All of them appeared online now as well. Early on Nao found out he could set up a video call with those added as friends. It worked both ways, he could block any such requests that came his way as well.
But for this time, he sent the call notification over to Miya. Not even a second passed before a 3d screen popped up before Nao, Isabella and Isabella. What they saw was a very cute sylph with pinkish skin, no taller than a few feet high. She had translucent red wings growing out of her back they seemed to constantly flutter about.
A small robe covered the rest of her body, but not her hair which was also fiery red. It was fairy wavy and flew past her neck.
This was Miya's Fire Sylph form in Yggdrasil. Her actual Fairy form matched rather similarly to this form, but each one still had their differences. Miya wasn't alone either, a graceful ocean blue haired elf could be seen on the video screen next to her. Thus was of course Elsa.
As for their current location, they were still in Alfheim. They appeared to be in a grandiose city surrounded by a multitude of different colored trees. Miya flew around happily before waving her hand at Nao.
”Well if it isn't Brother Nao! Hello!”
”It's good to see you, Miya. Looks like you're here as well, Elsa.”
”Yes. You called at a good time. We're currently back in town restocking our supplies. Our third member is currently in one of the shops. We will be heading out soon to clear the remainder of this area we're in. It's level cap is 40, much like yours.”
”Is that so? Wait did you say you have a third member in your team? Did it happen recently?”
”Yeah. People over here in Alfheim have started to figure out the deal with the Heteromorphic classes. I'm not sure what it's like in the other realms but the discrimination has already begun here. PKers would go out and about killing them on a whim. Most of them are now in recluse. But then that's when it happened.
Not too long ago while we were on our way to Geyser Forest, we stumbled across a live PK session. Some hooligans were chasing down a golden amber slime-like monster.”
”A golden amber slime-like monster...could it be?”
As Nao started to go into his own thoughts, he was cut off after Elsa nodded her head.
”Yeah. Turns out this monster had a name tag over their head and was actually a Heteromorphic player. After discovering this we easily killed off those hooligans. Little did we know that the slime's name was Bukubukuchagama!”
”So it really was her! Such a lucky find you two. Still, makes me wonder why she appeared in Alfheim in the first place.”
”I'm not sure, she didn't explain much to us. We only extended her an invitation and now she's a party member. She thanked us profusely already after we saved her. Pretty neat huh?”
”Sure is! But us it safe for her to be walking around in one of those shops alone?”
”She'll be fine as long as we're in this safe zone. Plus we've been busing her around since we've picked her up. Her level isn't too far off from ours. We just hit level 40 the other day.”
”That's great to hear. Speaking of that, the main reason I called was for Miya. We found a dungeon raid and we need four people. Thinking about our options over here I figured Miya would be our best bet for our last member. What do you say, Miya?”
”You can count me in, Brother! That's fine isn't it, Big Sis?”
”A raid, is it? Fufu, you can go in and join them. I'll go chat with Bukubukuchagama after and then we can relax for the day. We weren't in a rush or anything.”
”Yay! I don't think any of us have been in a raid yet. This will be a first for all of us, right Brother?”
”Sure is. You have Scrolls of Teleportation right? Or do you need me to send you some?”
”We got some to spare! I'll be over in a jiffy!”
”Great. I'll end the call then.”
After Nao said that, Miya and Elsa waved goodbye. Miya was going to wrap things on her end before teleporting over. Still, Nao didn't think he would receive such a wonderful piece of news so soon.
On top of Tabula who now has been in his party for this past year, he had finally located the second member of the forty one Supreme Beings of Ainz Oowl Gown. Not only that, she was partying with Miya and Elsa in Alfheim!
It was Bukubukuchagama! For those who were not aware of who she was, she was none other than the creator of the Dark Elf Twins, Aura Bella Fiora and Mare Bello Fiore!
