86 # 81 First event announcement and revenge.txt (1/2)

The next day at school for lunch. Kaito's guy suddenly started to make a scene.

''Seigo!　They just announced their first event at EO!

I thought there was such a thing as an event before, but apparently it meant something different. According to Kaito, there was an announcement of a limited time event that the management was going to hold. Apparently these events have gorgeous rewards.

So what kind of event is it?

'Listen and be surprised!　What a game of survival!

I feel like survival games are pretty survivalist in their current state? They're taking down boas and eating meat.

'Well, that's what's on the front of the event. We're talking about what is actually a raid boss event.

Wasn't that a big raid boss?

'Yes!　It's like taking on a big boss with all the players.

Let me just check out the contents.

I'll go over the contents.

The first management event, ”The Old Lonely Island

Duration: One week

Description: A week-long survival game on an uninhabited island.

Cooperate with other players to survive the week-long survival game.

You can get points by defeating monsters and cooperating with other players.

You can exchange your points for prizes of your choice.

Use this opportunity to get powerful weapons and items.

Today is Friday, and the game starts next Saturday. The game will start next Saturday. That means we'll be having the event during Golden Week, which starts about a week from now.

We'll have more details tomorrow... well, we'll have a week to prepare for the event. And if you can get points for cooperating with other players, Ruin-san and the rest of the production staff will be busy.

This is getting exciting. We have a week to go to a new city, and we'll definitely be in the top of the event!

Good luck.

Hmm?　What's going on?　Seigo. Not too keen on it?

'We'll be at the event. We just want to take it at our own pace rather than actively go.

We're just going to go out there and enjoy the game as we always do. Of course we're going to be well prepared and if we're going to do it, we want to take it seriously.

When I finished school, I was on fire. The reason was yesterday's white horse. I'm going to feed them for sure! I'm going to get that white horse to approve of my cooking!

However, I don't have any real-life ingredients, so I go to the supermarket to stock up on food for the holidays. After that, I log into the game and immediately head to the Beast Demon Guild and perform a list summon. My target is the same hose as yesterday!

But again, he failed twice. Hello~. Are you breathing?

As I stepped out of the tombolo summoning room, Nephi called out to me.

'Oh?　Twice failed?

Yes... and that's four if you count yesterday.

'What are you trying to summon to fail so badly?'

It's the hose.

When I say that, Nephi agrees.

'That explains why it's so difficult,'

Is that so?

Yes, sir. Hoses are very valuable, aren't they?　I can't summon them with normal magic stone summons, I can only summon them with list summons, but for the all-important list summons, I have to identify the hose, right?

Yes, sir.

But the horses are very alert and rarely show themselves in public.

Huh? But he showed up yesterday.

I saw a white horse yesterday.

Neffy is surprised when I say that.

'You met a subspecies of horse!　What a valuable experience that was.

Hmm? Subspecies? Valuable? Come to think of it, the White Horse is the White Horse and the one I'm failing to summon is the Horse. I thought it was an evolutionary destination, but apparently it's not.

''Excuse me. What is a subspecies?

'Oh. You didn't tell me, sister. A subspecies is a different species from the normal one that is rare in summoned beasts.

So you're saying there's a normal species and a rare species. That's new to me. No, by any chance.

”Is Goblina a rare species too?

'Goblina is different. We're talking about a female goblin. If that goblina was different from the usual, it would be a subspecies. It's easy to recognize it because it has a different name.

Heh. So if the name is different from the one I summoned, it means it's a subspecies.

'By the way, is there anything good about being a subspecies?'

'Of course there is. Subspecies evolve differently than normal. A white horse could be a unicorn or a pegasus.

You've heard the important stuff in a nutshell!

Couldn't a regular hose turn you into a unicorn or something, by any chance?

No, sir. If normal horses were used to it, the world would be full of unicorns by now.

Oh... when you put it that way, it makes sense. But from the way you put it, the other famous legendary beasts are going to be quite difficult.

In the meantime, I have to get my revenge for yesterday! Nephi said I might not see him again, but if that white horse came for my potato salad, he'd surely come if I made a better potato salad than that one.
