”It's Myu! I'm Myu! Nice to meet you”

”I'm Lucato Nice to ed to call out to Lucato, no, to Luka-chan

”Your Sense build could be changed around a little, but first goes buying a weapon and potions You start with 1000G, you need to use it on both”

Luka-chan was a beginner starting today, so I explained to her about Senses and equipment as I looked around for temporary party'sSenses”

She touched the hilt of a beginner's sword she had by her waist I already have one, ould I buy another That's the kind of question she had on her face

”It has its advantages and disadvantages, by buying a neeapon your attack power increases On the other hand, if you use the initial weapon, it won't break”

”So weapons do break, after all”

”That's right But, unless you use them recklessly, it won't be a problem”

Luka-chan put a hand on her chin And, it seemed like she decided what to do

”I think, I'd like to prioritize arht'

While talking about various thing with Luka-chan, I walked through the town About potions having the recovery amount limited by levels and the story about s Listening to it, Luka-chan seriously worried howLucato bit by bit was so ot about tile female player

”Hey, hey, coht Also, we're strong” ”And, you can feel safer with men, too” ”See, co soirl and solicited her into their party

The girl was older thanon her This is a gaot angry just by looking

”Uo help her out”

”Eh?!! L-Luka-chan?!”

”You're Lucato, so, Luka-chan”

When I declared that, confused, Luka-chan chased after s were scared of the well-built et involved in it Hmm, let's do it in a classic way

”Sorry! I'ed in between the irl was terrified and froze stiff in surprise, I thought the situation would turn worse were she to speak so I grabbed her by hand and tried to forcibly pull her afterwith this act and received a nod in response

”Indeed It's all because Myu-chan's been shopping at the store endlessly, the tientle and dignified sirl noticed our intention and shook her head so strongly it looked like it would coirl as friends How about for a party with us then”

”Haa? Are you an idiot?”

I spoke in a voice so cold I surpriseddown on younger girls, le breath

”There's four of you Three of us How do you want to form a party like this? Party's , don't you know the system?

”No, um c'mon, hey you, leave party this time”

”Err, no way!”

”See, now there's three of us, let's make a party——”Yes, unfortunately we already have a party of six girls so there's no space Farewell”——”

Interrupting him, I was about to say ”laters” and slip out, but the moment I turned my back to them one of men stretched his hand

”Don't screith irl squeezed out a screaed to the side and theuntil a irls without raising their levels first

”What? You can't even touch irl to Luka-chan and confronted the fourto catch me with ease Naive, co A cooperative attack of four goblins looks better than this

The male players tried to catchthem as to show off to onlookers, I spoke loudly

”Aren't you hts in real aren't necessarily strong in ga that pointed out the s counted on so this But——

”Ohh, it's here”

I waited until a certain syste

The radually faded

”daainst sexual harassment——【GM Call】 See you”

【GM Call】 is a way for solving probleaame in order to solve the probleame master is notified of violations such as harassame, and will deal with them This time, the content of report was VR specific harassirl has been judged as attempted sexual harassment, one of the onlookers must have waited so that they can use the 【GM Call】 Since everything went as planned, I s the men disappeared, I returned to Luka-chan

”I”m back, Luka-chan”

”It's not 'I'!”

And even though I caently raised Not good, she's as scary as Yun-oniichan when he's angry Though, that's a rare occurence

”Really, I'ry, now she makes a tearful expression I'm really sorry!

”Luka-chan, I'”

As I seriously apologized, Luka-chan made a surprised look

It see accustomed to this, but the fact that I kne to deal with itweird to you?”

”N-no! I' behind Luka-chan responded nervously, calht

”Thank you veryme”

”No It's fine, it's fine We've acted of our own interest too”

The girl who had twitched in response to ht so, Luka-chan spoke to her to calood person Probably”

I guess Luka-chan can't assert it co I sirl my request

”Now then, won't you form a temporary party with us?”

”Eh? Yes, please”

”Uht not want to join a party”

Unsatisfied by the girl's response for invitation to the stray party Luka-chan asked, but the girl responded more calmly than she had before

”With those people, I wouldn't be able to calirl's, isn't it Actually, I look forward to it”

Please take care of irl lowered her head as she said that, I proudly responded with ”leave it toHino-chan everything went smoothly Both Hino-chan and I have invited two players each to the stray party

”Well then, let's introduce ourselves I'ht and recovery ic”

”And I' on situation, I'e as main”

Take care of me, said Hino-chan From here on it's the stray party's members introduction

”I'm Lucato I choose sword as ic”

The girl I solicited and together with Luka-chan saved, e Rossy She looked fearful and not dependable yet, if she get's used to the ga probably

”I' in weapons like that of a thief or a bandit, throwing knives and claws”

”I'm Milizam My weapon is this hand axe and the shi+eld”

The people Hino-chan brought were close to being supporters, Nekoya and Lizam were full of confidence

Milizam looked somewhat forceful The word ”rebound” would fit her really well, she was uncoordinated but seeetically

Such players constructed their Sense builds and way of fighting for explosive strength, at the same time they tended to be picky with their partyher, but I'ht not be able to match the pace

”Now then, how about we head to hunt immediately?”

”Hey, wait a moment!”

I stopped Milizaot some people who just equipped Senses and are still with initial equipoin' to heal so it's ain't necessary”

Certainly, I said I use recovery ic swordset it?

”Myu-chan, this”

”Haa, I get it I'll be the rear”

In that case Luka-chan as swordsuard, and tank Milizauard the setup will be me and Rossy Nekoya, naturally will be a hit and run

Thinking about balance it wasn't too bad, but how about you consult with usit is part of the party's thrill!

”U both es of each fully So”

Ohh, Rossy has gathered courage and spoke her opinion towards Miliza you don't go all useless here! I felt like screa that

Hino-chan lowered her shoulders as well, but the God of salvation hasn't abandonedtone Well prepared ht?”

”fine”

Milizareed unhappily Nekoya said what Rossy wanted to say, and so ere able to replenish consumables in NPC's store

Other than that, we had a conversation about whether soinner's weapons and buy NPC equipinner's equipment and save money, the opinions differed betweentheir weapons and save h there's not enough money Choose whether you want attack or defence”

Miliza and I just talked with others as aited During this time, Luka-chan, Rossy and Nekoya could speak frankly with each other

”All right! I decided on an axe!”

”Now then, let's head out for hunt Once you reach a certain level Hino-chan and I will teach you about movements and characteristics of eneh the closest, eastern gate With that said, everyone started ate, there were plains On it, appeared Herbivorous Beasts which were said to be a tutorial for beginner's, on the vicinity of the boundary between plains and the forests appeared a little bit stronger mobs like Blue Slimes and Goblins

And on the field——players waited for mobs to appear

”Heyhey, there's no enemy to beat”

”Whoops〜, We're late Myu-chan, what do we do?”

”Even if you askHino-chan”

In β era the player population wasn't that big so the hunting grounds weren'tout one could expect a large nu in on the first day

As the mobs were replaced, the party of six looked at the players crushi+ng the very aard

”It's different froh life in game world”

These were somewhat philosophical words from Nekoya-san because of which, Rossy was struck with reality

”Heyhey, what do we do Like this there's no point in for party”

”Well well, calitated Milizam

In that case

”Ho to slightly stronger uess?”

”Then, we should aim for a place away from the town? Or one adjacent to this place”

”What So there's a good place Let's go there then”

”Wait a moment, listen to everyone's opinions!”

As Miliza her, she responded defiantly but listened to me

”What Myu-chan said is ultimately just one possibility, we can head out to the west area to take a look and try hunting er ones That's one uess The experience gained isn't that good, but mobs relatively easy to defeat appear there”

East had Herbivorous Beasts, Blue Slimes and Goblins

The s, Bats and Forest Bears Forest Bears appeared in a fairly narrow area in the southwest, so aside from that the enemies are weak

”U this as support, you can decide it with a majority vote of the four of you”

”East or west, is it”

Luka-chan started thinking over the question deeply, Miliza is a pain so east's fine”

”Hh it's risky, we can raise our levels faster in the east, I guess”

”So, how about you?”

”Hiee? M-me?!”

Milizam asked Rossy for opinion

”U ht! It's decided! One person abstained and two for the east No o!”

”W-wait”

Bringing Nekoya with her, Milizaate Rossy looked with concern at Lucato who hasn't spoke her mind yet, but Luka-chan only smiled wryly as if to say it can't be helped

”Luka-chan, where did you want to go?”

”Me? It was already decided by majority vote”

”And that's why You need to properly voice your opinion”

”Fufu, you're right There's still o west”

But, I look forward to the east side She said with a soft smile

And then, we looked for a place with a few people, walking through the border of the eastern forest we found a suitable area

”Here, far away fro”

The location was on the south, quite near the Wetlands area There were fewer people here because it was distant froht away!”

”Wait for us”

Milizam assaulted a Herbivorous Beast nearby And, Nekoya pounced on another one

Just, Nekoya seele somewhat because of her low stats

”C'mon Rossy He can't move now, you can aim now”

”Y-yes! 《Fireball》!”

A fireball produced froht on the Herbivorous Beast and dealt da it's far from a proper party play Hino-chan made a wry smile and Luka-chan wondered when should she enter

”I'll pair up with Milizam, also support Nekoya and Rossy”

”Then, I'll pair up with Luka-chan”

With that said, while being taught about the Sense builds and ene

In the vicinity of the area's boundary in addition to Herbivorous Beasts, mixed in were also Sli your HP a little ——《Heal》”

One person hit the ene defence I used recovery ic on Milizaht si that, Rossy and Nekoya were motivated and switched to sli froain! Hurry and heal me!”

I defeated the sliht Shot》 and healed her

Inadvedrently, I looked towards Hino-chan and Luka-chan

”The sli the nucleus with the sword isonto that area with my hammer”

”Like, point, line and area attacks?”

”That's right Each mob has different characteristics like ht them even despite level difference”

”That'll be helpful”

Luka-chan listened to Hino-chan seriously And, as I looked towards the two reflecting on co better

I recalled at how at first I didn't kno to fight ht! 【Axe】's level went up to 6!”

”That's fast I' each appearingher level Milizam quickly went up to level 6 Nekoya and Rossy also steadily raised their levels

”This feels great! Let's beat Goblins next!”

”Umm, I'er”

Luka-chan declared timidly In response Miliza over the weaklings right? I want to level up faster”

Saying so, she didn't intend to match the party's pace

Luka-chan's level was still low, but she focused herself on learning the player skills It meant she wasn't weak Hino-chan too had low level, but with her player skills she could take on Goblins

”what do we do, Luka-chan”

I asked Luka-chan The reason Hino-chan and I have formed a stray party was in order to enjoy the atmosphere, there was no need to continue a party that didn't care about that

Expecting her answer——

”I understand Let's go further However, let's take them down safely one by one”

”Then, let's have a split of three each and follow up on each other How about that? Me, Myu-chan and Luka-chan for one team, Milizam, Nekoya and Rossy for the other”

Since the balance wasn't bad, Hino-chan's draft was easily passed

”Well then, let's go!”

Pulling Nekoya and Rossy, Milizairls

Confronting a Goblin, Miliza clumsily and each time they defeated one, they would use potions

”Tch, so too well Support, recovery!”

They defeated one Goblin, Rossy delivered the first attack, and then Milizam with Nekoya surrounded and defeated it With Milizarasp on the tih she requested recovery, before I could heal her she had already started battle with the next mob, her pace completely chaotic

On the other hand, in our case——

”Goblin's weaknesses are it's neck and left of its chest If you focus on those, they are easy to defeat”

After saying so, Hino-chan hold down the Goblin with her spear'sa thrust with the sword

With every blow ai for the vitals, the time required to take down one Goblin decreased Once used to it, one would naturally aim for those points or near them

Thanks to that, the difference between Miliza her weapon and Luka-chan who ai And, once Miliza unexpected

”Meh! Taking theish!+ ——《Hate Bind》”

”You shouldn't do that here!”

We have decided to take them one by one, haven't we And yet, Milizam used 【shi+eld】 Sense's taunt-type skill

An action that gathers hate froe into active ons, a taunt that s co And, in the south-east there was——

”We're running, Luka-chan”

”Eh! But”

”It's fine! We need to secure an escape route!”

Hino-chan brought Luka-chan and begun the retreat In theat us

I had Nekoya and Rossy go ahead and took their place

And, Grey Rats and Mill Birds aimed for Milizam She noticed the her axe

”Milizam! You won't make it unless you run!”

”What! You scared?”

”That's not it! This isn't the right place!”

”If you're scared, just continue staying in support!”

My persuasion didn't get through to Milizae, she continued to take down the inco that, Rossy used her ic that improved with levels raised to defeat a Grey Rat that ay fro?”

”Because we're so far south, mobs from the south are mixed in Mobs from the Wetlands should have been pulled in——here they are!”

Attracted fros by the taunt skill, they ju-type mobs

The moment I saw that, I moved

”You two, run!”

I told Rossy and Nekoya to run, and in the end I applied recovery ic to Milizam With this, her HP was recovered to full And yet——

”What, a new ene, Miliza's tongue, her freshly recovered full HP was scrapped off

Seeing Milizam quickly fall despite the resistance, finally Nekoya and Rossy developed a sense of crisis, starting to run

I stood in spot and prepared for Moor Frog's pursuit

Now that Milizaathered the et instead

”——《Light shi+eld》!”

I took on the Moor Frog's pursuit with a lightit However, all I could is to deal with the Moor Frog, as for the re attacks of Grey Rats and Mill Birds I just endured it as I retreated

”Myu-san This——《Fire wall》!”

Rossy used her defensive ic and made a wall of fire betweenI ran through all at once

”There's the area's border!”

As Hino-chan and Luka-chan defeated le-s alone went back!”

”Then, let's defeat the rest Hino-chan”

”Yup!”

After passing through its area, Moor Frog had returned into the depths of the forest As the single er here, we started bullying the reht Web》!”

”Bloay ——《Sic leveled up, Hino-chan used her large haed all the eneround

Hino-chan and I were able to defeat the ic's and art's delay time, we couldn't repeat the same action immediately

”Then, let's take the reckless with Myu-chan!”
