I used liqueur and Darley to search further along the way, but the result was no good... I thought it was a remote island, so I thought it would be possible to go straight to the sea at worst, but I'm beginning to think it's not an island at all.

Well, let's take this as an achievement. No one else will make the same mistake.

Since I went out of town, I took out the Wolfman and others to level up, but it's not very efficient. I'm sure it would be faster to level up if I fought a big enemy in a defense battle.

I tried using Return here to see what would happen. Then I went back to the Lake of Healing... so I didn't have to worry about the return trip.

Then I log out for dinner. I logged in again and went fishing. I had to make a meal for Chess, Seguro and Puyosuke.

I've successfully caught 20 Wakasagi, so I'm going to cook them. I'd like to deep fry the smelt, but I'm going to grill it on a spit.

Put the smelt on a grill net and sprinkle salt. Then I adjusted the heat to low and grilled it. The result is this.

Skewered Wakasagi: Rare Level 3 Cooking Quality E

Effect: Recovery of 25% of fullness and 1 hour of auto-recovery of MP (small)

Wakasagi (Japanese smelt) skewered and grilled. It's a small fish, so you can eat more and more.

Then, I'll treat the three of us. Maybe I'll treat the three of them.

So Chess and the others happily finished their meal, but the goblins and beastly summoned beasts are gathering...this.

''Good evening, Tact-san,''

Good evening, sir.

It's still Luke and Tyrol.

Luke has 3 goblin fighters, 1 goblina shaman, and 1 goblina archer; Tyrol has a grey wolf, a white wolf, a red wolf, a white tiger, and a rave. It worries me in another way.

'They love you,'

''Don't tell me...I haven't told you yet, but I got 'Goblin Collector' as a title...''

There's even a title like that... so does that mean Lily and the others have something to offer?

Lolita complex

It came to me naturally in my head. No, no, no, it couldn't be, could it? Yeah, it shouldn't be that title!

Come to think of it, it was the goblins that led me to meet Luke and his friends. You never know, because now they're more sympathetic than envious.

'I'm this formation because I wanted to!

Of course you do!

And by the way, Tact?　Where's your little loco moco?

I used my production skills in the morning, and now I'm going to sleep.

Please summon me!

No, I don't want to. You know, I feel eyes everywhere. I mean, couldn't you identify them?

Tyrol must have been trying to summon the sheep before the event.

''Yes... we've been looking for it for a long time... but it will escape before we can identify it...''

A picture of Tyrol chasing after Sheep with blood eyes in his head, and Sheep running away in a hurry when he saw it.

''Ugh... I got 'Beast Collector' by title and became a Beast Summoner... why~''

Oh! I think we've both changed classes.

You've changed classes. Congratulations.

'Thank you!　It was just in time, but we made it.

'Luke is a fairy summoner... and I don't know of two.

I think it's because of the title we have.

Oh. Goblins are fairies, aren't they? I knew it was a fairy-type power-up?

'Yes. Also, they say it makes it easier for fairies to come out when you summon them.

Why? I can only picture them mass-producing goblins...

Oh, I'll get you another fairy, I swear!

The flag. It.

I'm sure Tyrol is right.

Is Tyrol's the same?

'Yes!　But I can't get the sheeps!

Uh... should I tell him this? It's a mystery to me why Sheep is in the beast category. Because Sheep would be in the production summoner category.

But it could be in both, so let's not say it's unconfirmed.

'Come to think of it, I haven't tried to see if I can identify them.

''Because I changed classes at the last minute the night before the event started. Can I ask for it after the event?

Yeah. I promise.

I'm sure of it!

Tyrol's power is amazing....Sheep's charm can change a person so much.

'Is Mr. Tact now on the defensive?'

'Oh. We explored in the daytime. I'll be on the defensive at night.

'You're with us!　Best regards!

Let's see what you're capable of now that you've changed classes.

But I'll do my best!

I'm waiting at the Lake of Healing. The members are Lily, Setia, Gray, Konoha, and Black Iron.

The reason for this is because we were exploring only during the day.

'I don't feel half as safe as I used to,'

I know it's been a rough day.

Crowe and Mew told me that it was a game of itty-bitty wire traps and enemy attacks. Furthermore, Ruin-san seems to have monopolized Aranea's string and spearheaded the setting of the trap.

''I won't let those guys say anything.

Luin, who was really angry, was so scared.

''Speaking of which, I heard that the guys from the attack team have discovered a new base area?

Ahh~. You beat me to it. Too bad.

But I heard the boss wiped them all out. Can't help but feel sorry for him.

There was a boss fight, wasn't there?

Do you know what the boss was?

He said it was Berserk King Kong.

I stand corrected. I'm not sorry. You're welcome.

”Trent's Woods is run by King Kong, right?

According to the library, yes.

The crazy state of the area bosses... you can tell how bad it is.

Indeed. Obviously, they'll be more difficult to deal with than the Rock Hermit Club. You'd have to think the other base area bosses would be that much more difficult to deal with.

Mr. Tact, why don't you get it?

'No. I have a phobia of monkeys.

Heh, I didn't know what I didn't like about tact.

That's about it...no muscular men and no thank you.

Can I just write in that little girls are good and monkeys are bad?

Would you like me to write that the Yeti took you?

How do you know?

Pfft.

I was just trying to get my head around something... but I didn't realize I was being abducted.

You're going to have to explain that to me. Crow.

By all means, please.

'What?　You put it on!　No, I won't!　I'll never tell you!

After all, I couldn't tell you about Mr. Crowe's abduction of the Yeti. I'd like to hear about it someday.

Gray reacts. It looks like the enemy has arrived.

”Tasukete.

A female player's voice. What is it? Identify the enemy that appears while hugging the female player.

Muscle Gorilla Lv 16.

Event Monster Target Active

Oh, it's my brother!

My brother, help.

Oops! They've got Mel and the others too.

”Sorry. In my family we don't fight gorillas with strong muscles.

'There's no such thing!　Quickly help me.

Mel was pissed. So Ruin and the others log in. Before the Muscle Gorillas....wow! That's because the base area is going to be attacked, so something like this is going to happen. All I can say is that I'm out of luck.

'Huh?　So, Takuto-kun was here too. Hmm?　What's going on?　Everyone put their hands together.

I'm sorry. It's the only way I can do this.

”Whoo-hoo!

'What?　Wait!　What is this?!

'Kyah!　Se, s*xual harassment!

”...hmmm!　...!

Ruin and the others have been caught too.

It was a treat.

I wonder what was a treat for Mr. Crowe.

The numbers are growing, though. It's not good.

Then the muscle gorillas are pointing and talking to Lily and Setia. And then I got a dirty look on my face.

'Uho~'

Ta-tact... a bad feeling...

Mr. Tact!　Please replace it!　Now!

Yes, I know. But I don't know if they sensed it or not, but the muscle gorillas attacked.

'Grey!'

Wow!

Grey throws a roar but the muscle gorillas out of range come at him. I can't bring them back. I give him instructions as I take out my glass sword.

'I'm sorry, but I don't think I can. Setia is a bow. Help the people who are trapped.

'Yes, sir!　Please make sure you're protected, okay?

I'm on it. Lily, we'll fight with you this time.

'Really?　Yes!

We haven't fought in front of each other like this since the first time. We take position in front of Setia. Mr. Crow and the others will stand back. I wouldn't want to fight if I could, either, but if Lily and Setia are going to be targeted, we have to fight them.

I send Muscle Gorilla's head flying, and Lily turns Muscle Gorilla into an off-field home run.

'Black Iron, draw those guys in a bit. Grey and Konoha are rescuing the people who are being held captive. Let's do it!

They all respond and start to move.

The muscle gorillas don't care and go after Lily and Setia. I can't help it. These guys.

Some of them head for the black iron, but about ten of them still come this way.

I take a step back.

”Lilly!

'Yes!　Heavy Slash!

Lily blows a few muscle gorillas away. But meanwhile, Lilly's swarming with muscle gorillas.

I cut them down myself. But I can't finish them off with a single blow. The slash I fired with the intention of bouncing my head off of them only sliced their necks as the muscle gorillas pulled their heads back.

In real life, you'd think he'd die from massive blood loss, but in the game, it's not a fatal wound.

But it's enough to buy Lily some time for a heavy slash.

A brave muscle gorilla jumps in.

Lilly blows him away with another heavy slash. Then he pounces on it in time.

Excellent. I throw a thrust at the muscle gorilla's face. I pull my head back, but I can't get away from the thrust. The glass sword stabs the muscle gorilla in the face, but the muscle gorilla still tries to grab it.

That's Muscle...tough.

I pull out my sword before it can be taken and blow it away with a spinning kick. The muscle gorilla behind me hits my ally, who suddenly flies at me, and I fall down.

I pounce on him and with a full-throated thrust, I drive three blows through the muscle gorilla's face.

I can't move, but another muscle gorilla attacks me, but Lily helps me up.
