Chapter 1 (2/2)
“Yeahhh A new nickname would be nice”
Andrei soreed from behind with his arms folded
Truthfully, since Kei got his hands on 『Dragon Stinger』the fatality rate of those who fought with him would increase ever more
If he walked around with this bow regularly, the nu to steal from him would also rise In other words, the number of victims will continue to rise
Andrei secretly thought to himself, Won’t the Ripper nickname just spread even further?
Another ten h the sparse woods they followed a small river upstream
Directly in front of theorge The gorge was known as “Wolvern Valley”
It was a very convenient road that led toward the player-h the valley and up the path along the cliff, they should reach the village in a matter of minutes, except–
“…Fog?”
Kei knitted his brow in suspicion and pulled on the reins to stop his horse
Fog
The road that stretched froe entrance to the other end faded co was thick as iftheir view
Keifeels off”
“Yeah The weather isn’t bad,” responded Andrei, looking up at the clear sky
In the realistic 『Demondal』, the weather is also reproduced The phenoame is so realistic, it was inco now
Andrei faced Kei and suggested, “…『Illusionary Fog』?”
Kei denied the idea with a shake of his head “No, I don’t think so Think about our ic resistance”
“…It shouldn’t be this thick for us, huh”
“Yeah, at the very least, this can’t be player- either,” said Kei while carefully observing their surroundings
『Sixth Sense』 One of the few game elements in the realistic 『De it as “bloodlust” would make it the easiest to understand Siet the “chills” if he felt so to attack him
General illusions that don’t cause any real harm are also considered “attacks”
“If your sixth sense isn’t reacting… then this isn’t a ”
Andrei brought his hand to his chin and huht
Putting aside Kei fighting froh 『Passive Sense』 as well as suppressing his own bloodlust through 『Stealth Sense』
Even without the God-like passive ability to sense an attack froenerally deal with surprise attacks In return for being overly sensitive to bloodlust, it was hard to handle sti free-for-alls
In any case, even Kei didn’t feel any bloodlust co
“Well, if it’s a contract with so other than a fairy then it’s a different story… For argument’s sake, if it were a spell with no menace nor hostility then even I wouldn’t be able to feel it” Kei drew an arrow fro, Andrei?”
“Nope You know that I’ood with passives If you don’t understand it then there’s no way I would”
Andrei drew his saber froed his shoulders
Other than using a saber for hand-to-hand coe, ambushes, and the like His 『Offensive Sense』which overwhelms his opponent with bloodlust is the extre friend, 『Stealth Sense』
Andrei who side his sword, toys with his eneh the very root of the battle’s rhythm and dominate the atmosphere
But because this fighting style takes the initiative, Andrei didn’t have many opportunities to use “Passives” Furtherer levels
Meaning, it’s only for top-class players His ability at least wasn’t comparable to that of Kei’s
“But, even so, I get that this fog is blatantly suspicious”
“Agreed What should we do about it?”
As far as Kei knew, there hasn’t been any occurrence of fog in Wolvern Valley before Including days with poor weather
Although there have been events, items, new monsters or small story related updates that have been added without prior notification
They thought that this fognew
“…Taking a detour would be the safest choice”
Andrei said in an incredulous voice, “It’ll take another 30 minutes if we do, you know?”
The only other way to get to Wolvern would be to go around the cliff and then climb up the steep mountain road
“Then let’s just charge through?”
“Kei… Why do you gotta be so extreme?”
“Howthat even though you want to do it?”
“Heh, prettyto fear now that I’ve lost most of my potions!”
Andrei proudly stuck his chest out masochistically, but tilted his head and said, “But is it all right? In the worst case, that bow…”
“Of course I don’t want to lose it, but I have thebad happens I’ to leave you behind and run”
“You ass,” joked Andrei as he raised his saber A smile floated onto Kei’s face and he pretended to run away on his horse
“Well, let’s check it out a little, partner”
“Let’s”
The two entered the fog with smiles
