Chapter 88.1

Nina-san And Snapping Turtles

One of the bad habits of an otaku is that when we become obsessed, we can't see what's happening around us. We become so engrossed in our interests that everything else becomes unimportant.

I spent about two whole days as a man on a mission to kill any giant snails I found on the 4th floor. Now, you might think it's crazy to become so obsessed with killing giant snails, but it was because it was interesting to kill them with a single shot of a salt stake or a salt javelin.

When a giant snail is pierced with a salt stake, it starts secreting more, and more mucus to neutralize the salt. However, the salt stake that pierces deep into its body doesn't come out or dissolve, and eventually, it withers and self-destructs, exceeding the limit of mucus secretion. Therefore, it's a one-hit kill.

By the way, snails are mollusks, a shell-less mollusk that seems to have evolved from land snails. Snails, even if they're called mollusks. Don't really whet my appetite.

"Hmm I worked hard for 2 days, but I only got 2 [Mucus] orbs that's not much. Maybe the [Usurpation] skill is related to this. This time, thanks to the [Salt] skill, my hunting efficiency for giant snails was the highest it's ever been. However, the drop rate was low, which raised the question of whether the [Usurpation] skill only works in close combat. The [Usurpation] skill is also a mysterious skill. I acquired it at some point, and its effects are also unclear. I vaguely understand it as [taking away the opponent's power or abilities], but even if I wish for the skill to activate, I don't feel any signs of activation, and it seems like there might be some complicated conditions for it."

[Well, there's no helping it. My [Mucus] has increased from 2 to 4. Let's leave it at that Huh?] As I took off my Bug King Suit and emerged from the pitch-black refrigerator, I noticed the blinking light on the communication terminal on the table.

[Couchi, I caught a cold please come to visit.]

I wondered what it was, and when I checked, it was a message from Nana. [Nina-san caught a cold but why is she contacting me for a visit again? Well, at times like this, I should ask Ruu, who is her friend, for confirmation. [Tapping and tapping] [Nina-san caught a cold and contacted me. Do you know anything, Ruu?] [I've had asthma since I was little, and when I catch a cold. It'd get worse. That's why I can't visit. If Shizu-chan is in trouble, please help her.] I see. That's how it is. So I guess she's also contacted Serai-san. But Serai-san is also starting university and has a part-time job. So that's why the contact came to me? Still, just to be sure, I sent a message to Nina-san saying, [I'll come, but do you want anything?] and received a reply, [Please bring cold medicine and something easy to eat.] So, it wasn't just a regular visit. It was a request for relief with supplies.

In that case, let's head out to help her.
