Chapter 78: Ion´s request and chubby rabbit
As I was thinking about what to do today, Ion spoke to me.
"Takuto-san, do you have a minute?"
"Hmm? What's wrong?
"I've been thinking a lot and I don't think I'll stay like this. So, Takuto-san, please teach me how to use a sword!"
I was surprised by Ion's request, but also happy. Ion had really been struggling since that defeat and had come to me with this kind of request.
"Ah!? Only Ion-chan is unfair! I want Takuto to teach me how to use a sword too!"
And Lily isn't too worried. Well, is this a difference in personality? However, there is a problem.
"I've never taught you to teach, right?"
"I don't mind. If there is a possibility that I can become a little stronger than Im now, I will choose that path"
Oh dear. If you say so, I have no choice but to cooperate.
"All right. If it's okay with you, I'll teach you how to use a sword"
"Are you sure!?"
"Yeah. But it might be tough"
"Pl, Please be gentle with me"
I guess that's where I get off.
"Takuto! And Lily! You'll teach me, won't you?"
"Yes Yes. I'll teach you"
After all, Lily's swordsmanship is full of fatalities. The first thing I need to teach her is how to use a sword. I'm sure she never dreamed that my hellish training would begin.
"So, let's get started with the training"
Ion rushed, but unfortunately it cant be done.
"I understand your impatience, but now is not the time"
"What!? Why!"
"We have no food. If we don't do something, our money will be ruined"
Unfortunately, this is the reality.
"It's a painful reality"
Setia said somberly.
"So today we're mainly going to get food. The training will be tomorrow morning. Is that okay?"
"Alright!"
Okay, we've got a plan. The question is, which ingredient should we target? The sheep was running away from us like crazy and the sea was not good for us...then the target would be a rabbit...but if not, we could go to the library or ask the butcher.
The result of my research at the library. The true identity of rabbit meat is chubby rabbit. Shortened to Japanese, it's a chubby rabbit. Sounds like a tasty name.
Moreover, it seems that there's a cave where you can get the material for the source of the glass at the destination of this rabbit. I checked it out at the library and my reading skill has improved.
Our goal is to get to the cave where we can get the glass! But first, I need to hunt a lot of Chubby Rabbits!
The members who set out with such enthusiasm were me, Lily, Ion, Setia and Konoha. Why is there no one else in the group? Because Kurogane was late. So I will call him up for the battle.
And I met Chubby Rabbit easily. It's about twice my size...it's huge! And now it is night. That means there are a lot of them. This is a pinch!
Chubby Rabbit Lv15
Monster Subjugation Target Active
I summon Kurogane, but his HP is decreasing rapidly. This is really bad. The only saving grace is that some of them are so big that they get in each other's way and can't move as fast as they want.
"I'll support Kurogane! Lily, Ion and Konoha, split up and attack! Setia, I ask for a Forest Warrior! Try to split up the attacks!"
"Understood!"
And then we hunted down the Chubby Rabbits. But those chubby rabbits are strong on their own! It's basically a body attack, but they also have a strong rolling attack. It seems to attack continuously and it's fast. Kurogane's HP was dwindling rapidly. The Forest Warrior was a single blow. But Setia is also growing. The first time she used it, she used up all her magic power, but now she still has some to spare. But I shudder to think that we would have taken that rolling attack.
However, Kurogane was able to withstand it. Lily and the others did their best to defeat the opponents, but I think Kurogane was the MVP this time. I tried out my new light magic and synchronization. I knew what to expect from the name, so I used it without hesitation.
First, Synchro. This was a skill that allowed you to communicate with summoned beasts over a long distance without speaking. Since Kurogane was large, this skill was very useful. After all, Lily and the others could tell me the status of the battle. It was super convenient. I guess it's a skill I learned after changing classes. In case you're wondering, you can only tell them what you want to tell them. I'm sure of it, because Setia tested it on me. This was the question she asked me.
"What do you think of my outfit?"
I think it's erotic!
I'm so glad she didn't get the message. If she had, she wouldn't have been able to fight. Let's forbid Setia to joke around in battle.
Next up was a new light magic, Area Heal. It heals the allies around the designated ally. This time, I was focusing on Kurogane to heal Lily and the others. Enemies don't heal, so it's useful magic.
Next, Light Shield. It puts a barrier on the designated ally. It only prevents one attack and if it's a rolling attack, it only nullifies the first damage, but I still think it's a big deal to prevent one attack.
I was supportive, but to be frank, if it weren't for Kurogane, we would have been wiped out. It turns out that Kurogane can use his provocation skill to direct enemy attacks at himself. I'm pretty sure it's because the chubby rabbit who tried to attack Lily stopped attacking midway and turned its attack on Kurogane.
Once again, I've realized the importance of a tank.
And, of course, we leveled up.
The level of Intermediate Summoner has increased. The number of summoned beasts that can become a companion has increased by one
The level of Intermediate Summoner has increased. Obtained Skill Points 1pt
My remaining skill points are 18pt. The number of summoned beasts that can become companions has returned to 15. Kuroganes level is too great. Of course, it was a fierce battle at level 1. Now it's rabbit meat time.
Rabbit Meat: Rarity 2 Ingredient Item Grade E-
Meat from rabbit. It has a strong scent of blood and is surprisingly sweet.
I successfully got 18 pieces of rabbit meat. It dropped quite a bit. Now I have a little more room. Well, only meat. And don't forget about Ion, she has reached Lv20. Familiar info comes!
Ion's level has reached 20. Perform evolution
Ion then glows blue and the evolution begins.
