Chapter 5: 5

[Go, Pontaro Master!]

“Hell yeah, I won, I woooo—ow, ow, ow, ow?!”

As I was celebrating my first victory, I suddenly felt a dull pain run through my arm.

…Oh yeah, it got chopped off. Being in a game, my sense of pain was limited, but it still hurt quite a bit and was very discomforting.

I hurriedly manifested a ‘Beginner Potion’ in my intact hand and poured it on the stump. Then, as the HP bar at the edge of my vision recovered, the stump glowed brightly, and my arm grew back.

By the way, my cut arm on the ground melted away. Please be nourishment for the plants.

“Okay, my body is back to normal! Okay, time to move on to more important matters…”

I thought back on what had happened earlier while moving my healed arm.

The last message said ‘Taming succeeded! Living Weapon has become your friend’, didn’t it?

…But I’d smashed it into pieces. Would it recover if I collected the broken pieces and stuck them together with glue? But that sounded like a lot of hassle, don’t wanna.

As I folded my arms under my pointlessly huge chest and tilted my head while making a deep and long groan, from the direction where I knocked the hilt of the Living Weapon away, some kind of black haze slowly drifted my way.

A new enemy! I immediately grabbed the arrow that I’d dropped on the ground and pointed it toward the black haze!

Archers using bows were a thing of the past! This battle style created by the genius of yours truly was the thing now! If you wanted to hit your target, just got closer to it and stabbed it with your arrow!!!

“Come! I’m gonna beat the shit out of ya!”

“Kishaaa! Urameshikuniya~~!”

The unthinkable happened. The black haze crouched on the ground, turned over and showed me its belly (?). The hell, it’s kind of like a dog, how cute!

While I was happily looking at the mysterious haze, Miss Message appeared before me.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Living Weapon (Elementary Body) is completely submissive to you.

Please set a new target for the Living Weapon (Elementary Body) to possess. Weapons only.

If the weapon is broken, the monster will die.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Ohhhhh, so that’s it! This is the soul of that rusty sword!

Hmm~ the bow was trash, so it was definitely a no-go, so…

“Hey Pontaro, can you possess this arrow?”

“Kisha~~~!”

When I held out the arrow in my hand to him, Pontaro—aka Living Weapon—infused itself into the thin arrow.

At that moment, the arrow was enveloped in a jet-black light——!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Weapon ‘Beginner Arrow’ possessed!

The monster’s Strength is added to the possessed weapon’s attack power!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Ohhh, Miss Message, that’s such wonderful news! This means that the problem of my verily lacking Strength is now solved! With this, I’ll be able to deal enough damage to my enemies~~~~~~~~!

“Come here, Pontaro, my good boy! I’ll be counting on you from now on!”

“Kishaa!”

When I rubbed my face against his shaft, Pontaro shivered in excitement and screeched in joy!

…That reminded me, he could freely fly around when he’d possessed the rusty sword.

“Pontaro… can you still fly now that you’re possessing an arrow?”

With that, I tried to let him go, and Pontaro splendidly flew in circles around me!

Oh… ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh?! This may solve my accuracy problem?!

I picked up the bow I had thrown away, nocked the arrow, and took aim at a furball—probably a Horned Rabbit—several tens of meters away.

“Okay… go, Pontaro!”

“Kishaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Wowzers! The moment I released the string, the jet-black light-clad arrow drew a complicated and bizarre trajectory before splendidly piercing the rabbit’s head!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

‘Fatal Strike’ activates! Damage increases!

Critical hit! Damage increases dramatically from hitting a weak point!

Horned Rabbit is defeated! Yuri and Pontaro have gained experience points!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

On top of being enhanced by Pontaro’s Strength, the arrow’s damage was increased by my damage-increasing skill and critical hit thanks to my very high Luck…! As such, the Horned Rabbit died in one blow.

Moreover…

“Kishaaaaa~!”

…the arrow possessed by Pontaro swiftly returned to me almost as though to say “How did I do, Aneki?!” With this, I didn’t have to worry about running out of arrows anymore!

Ah… now I was sure of it!

“…Summoner, bow, and Luck make one hell of a combination! I can fight now!”

Let’s goooooooo! I’m still worried about my Defense front, but this will be more than enough for me to fight with for now!

Oh right… I might as well make those wicked beta testers who had a nasty hobby of misleading beginners gobsmacked!

Alriiight! With this combination, I’ll become a top player!

“Let’s go, Pontaro, we’re going to stay up all night hunting!”

“Kishaaa!”

Together with my energetically screeching partner, I set out to find my next prey!
