English Novel
Chapter 25
Dance of the Fairies, the Opening Act PT 2
Leaving Zwei and his guild members Fairies with eyes full of love, I excuse myself from the Guild Field.
Today Im switching gears to crafting items for the food stall.
I couldnt say it in front of Nora, but in reality the Bear meat stew had come out as Simmered Bear Meat Stew with Quality 8.
If I told her then she would have definitely begged me to let her eat it; I could see it in her eyes.
To run away from that, this time I dared to lie.
Simmered Bear Meat Stew
The bear meat has had its gamey quality drawn out, and was afterwards simmered carefully as a stew.
The Bear meats deliciousness has spread to the vegetables; the vegetables have a distinct Bear meat flavor.
Quality 8
Fixed Interval ATK Increase (Long Lasting)
It takes a long time to prepare, so since its difficult to mass produce Im selling them for 500Glow a piece. For a one-time consumable this is an unprecedented price.
I guess it will probably sell slowly, but it cant be helped.
Because this is a game, as long as the seal isnt broken it wont deteriorate.
Its a cheat of a property that would never exist in Real, but I can take advantage of it here.
While in the middle of cooking, Fairies kept dropping in.
To be on the safe side, I asked the people who came to buy food whether they could see them too.
The result is,
Ah, yeah, I see them. Theyre kind of just dropping ne~, was one comment, and
I see them, but I dont think theyre particularly dropping in here; well, they dont seem to want to run away either, was another response, and
Fairies that havent contracted with players? I havent seen one, was another reply.
I got that its roughly divided into these 3 categories.
I wonder if theres some sort of condition to see them.
At least, just because you look for them doesnt necessarily mean you can see them, and it doesnt seem to be a bonus from something you pick up either.
Is it simply for roleplay?
But this is a VRMMO; I cant imagine that they would change the base settings that much.
For this all to be for roleplaying, its not really recommended. The issue is the computer specs necessary for this kind of roleplay.
For the necessary specs to make this kind of world, the old games from the past, just barely possible with weak specs, mercilessly pursued better algorithms1to be able to reach this world.
And then, as PC Specs improved the Real costs required got lower all around; the latest of the latest state-of-the-art is probably using the national-class Hyper-PC.
Like that, I cant imagine them implementing a change to the settings.
Eventually, the reason behind it probably wont come up on the Info Site.
Its a pretty insignificant detail of a tiny part of the game, so it would be tasteless to pursue it.
Anyway, the players the Fairies get easily attached to arent just me.
Im relieved once I realized that.
In the game, standing out is worrisome and comes with lots of burdens.
Players whove gotten nicknames attached to them have it especially bad.
Well, most of those types tend to go around with a fixed party so you dont hear much about them getting hounded with invites.
Nowmy cooking is just about over; the leftovers will go into a vending machine, and after that Ill head out to the Field to raise [Whip] and [Thief].
While Im fighting Wolves I can replenish my meat supply Im about out of stock.
Heading into the field, Im seeing a lot of players fighting together with their Fairies.
From what I can see it goes like this; along with Tackle, Fairies with claws or beaks will use them in close-ranged attacks.
After that, according to their element, theyll either attack with magic or buff their player master.
In addition, it looks like Water Fairies will cast
Wind and Earth most likely use their buff magics minimally, probably once.
Like this theres definitely a big difference between having a Fairy and not having one.
I wonder what the people whove failed like me are going to do.
Aside from people like me who mainly play solo, and with the effect on crafting still being within reason, Im mainly concerned with how this affects people in fixed parties.
Itd be good if this doesnt cause parties to break up
Its probably ok not to worry about other parties problems.
While thinking about that in a corner of my mind, I strike at a Wolf with my whip.
Im trying to entangle its legs, but as expected, its not going to be that easy topull a movie-esque stunt like lashing its legs together and watching it fall over.
If I raise [Whip] a little more I might learn something that would make catching something easier, and Ill probably have to buy another whip too.
Since Im only thinking in terms of my end results, I never expected it to bring much offensive power.
Since I have a style that covers both extremes, close and far-ranged combat, with [Bow] and [Kick], I chose [Whip] to cover the leftovers.
With the battle over, I take a break in the shade of a tree.
Its an area where there arent active monsters so I can relax.
Even though I was just out on the Field being suicidal, as expected of wooded areas and forests.
Quickly eating a Horned Rabbit Steak Sandwich that Id brought and quenching my thirst with a potion juice Without thinking too much about the expenses and making the things youd want to bring to eat yourself is nice.
While Im doing that, the Fairies were all dropping in again.
Theyre floating softly above my legs while Im sitting cross-legged and eating the Horned Rabbit Steak Sandwich, flying around me with interest.
Its very soothing.
Suddenly I realized that there were a lot of Fairies coming close and showing interest in my pocket, so I take out the Broken Fairy Contract Crystal event item.
This is the only think I could think of that they could be interested in.
Like so many floating bubbles the Fairies surrounded the crystal I took out.
At first they touched it timidly, then they started going in and out of it repeatedly.
Are they playing?
Well its cute so its fine its been after a lot of troubles, so lets take a video.
There might be people who will enjoy it if its uploaded onto an official site.
Id like to continue this pleasantly peaceful time but its getting closer to the time when I must log out so, even though I think the Fairies flying around and through the crystal wont understand it, I say, Hey, were closing soon.2
When I said that, the Fairies that were inside came out cheerfully.
I say a See ya and then hurry down the road to the town.
Maybe because I was having so much fun spending my time so peacefully
At that time I completely didnt notice it.
Slowly but surely, a change had occurred.
The broken Fairy Contract Crystal that crystal is no longer transparent.
