Chapter 59: A Sudden Turn (1)

Could it be due to that big mistake we made once before?

Ever since we reorganized our positions, our party has been progressing smoothly.

“Lord! Bestow upon me your light! Allow me to bring divine punishment upon these vile creatures!”

Helena, still exhibiting an almost berserk-like behavior, raged uncontrollably.

Tearing and killing.

Her actions resembled a scene straight out of a slasher movie.The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñøv€l-B1n.

Her deep-seated hatred and anger towards the monsters emanated fiercely from her, juxtaposed with her warm divine power that shone like the sun on everyone. It felt so unbalanced.

However, focusing solely on killing monsters like that inevitably left one vulnerable.

Indeed, there was an Evil Rabbit about to leap down from a tree, targeting the unaware Helena.

“Arghhhh!”

Swish.

With a forceful shout and a swing, a blade easily sliced the creature in two, so there was no need to worry.

Perhaps Vincent still felt uneasy looking at the Evil Rabbit. His eyes were narrowed, and his hands trembled.

But he didn’t run away and managed to swing his sword effectively.

Although he still seemed far from his true potential, at least he was now able to fight.

Lastly, I said,

“Vincent! There’s one more behind Helena!”

“On it!”

Utilizing my broad field of view, I also gave out simple commands.

“Burn, explode, and consume. Fireball!”

From time to time, I also bombarded clusters of monsters with spells.

“You think you’re fierce?!”

“Kiiiiieeek!!”

I also stabbed a dagger into the belly of a few monsters that tried to target me directly, bypassing Helena and Vincent.

...Wasn’t it strange that I had so much to do?

Anyway, as we focused on what each of us could do, our party surprisingly moved forward quite efficiently.

Thanks to that, even Vincent and Helena, who were initially uncertain, wore bright smiles.

“Hahaha! I had many worries at first... but isn’t this a pretty good party?”

“Isn’t it all thanks to Mr. Yandel, who turned our weaknesses into strengths?”

“...Anyone could have thought of that. Please don’t flatter me too much, Priestess Helena.”

Anyway, Vincent probably had his eyes on the system, which was referred to as the “achievement shop” among users.

But Helena, befitting of a priestess, had always had mild greed and continued to be anxious.

Deciding to alleviate Helena’s worries since they were brought up, I said,

“Priestess Helena, you’re right about the sudden increase in Evil Rabbits. There’s a large rock nearby, so let’s take a look from there. If anything’s amiss, we’ll retreat immediately.”

“Ah! Sounds good! Let’s do that then!”

Helena, who seemed a bit relieved, smiled shyly. It was hard to believe she had disassembled a monster with her bare hands just five minutes ago.

In fact, there was a reason why there were so many monsters around here.

It was because of the hidden piece on the rock I pointed out earlier... they were attracted to the aura emitted by the transformed magic herb.

The magic herb, a plant already rich in magic, underwent a mutation due to excessive magic, turning it into a transformed magic herb.

While it wasn’t as effective as a professionally made elixir, it was a medicinal herb that could lead to decent growth in the early stages.

Moreover, wasn’t magic, or “mana”, a crucial stat for a mage like me?

The only regrettable thing was that, unlike monsters and ordinary resources, special items like the transformed magic herb didn’t regenerate in respawn-type dungeons.

It was natural in games to prevent players from infinitely farming rare items, but this was the reality.

There was probably a reason why some items didn’t respawn. Although I didn’t know what they were.

Thinking so, I finally resumed walking after storing the last horn in my inventory.

Luckily, we didn’t encounter any monsters in the meantime.



“Phew... No wonder it couldn’t be found.“

As I thought of a reason for how I found this hidden piece, I climbed the rock alone.

In a small crevice there, a snow-white herb had grown, which was indeed the transformed magic herb.

I swiftly plucked it and put it in my inventory.

At the same time, a clear notification sound rang out.

Ding!
