Chapter 39: 37

One night passed after the dungeon attack, the 11th Month of the 11th Day.

Me and Resilia were leisurely walking to the Guild.

 

 

[What are you planning to do today, Nii-san?]

[Hmmm. I’m going to check everyone’s Status today, and then I’m going to disclose their new training menu.]

 

 

Yesterday, Radd and his party had successfully completed the dungeon attack, but we had no time to check their status growth because of the Quest Completion reports and other things.

The new training menu should be a great way to motivate them and show them how much they’ve grown in the dungeon.

 

 

[A new training menu?]

[Yeah. Before going into the next dungeon, I wanna give them training appropriate for their Class. Well, it would have been easier for them to defeat the Slime if they had done this training first……]

 

 

However, there’s meaning in giving them a hard struggle here.

 

 

I basically rely on game knowledge and see the world in a game-like way, but I don’t underestimate the existence of the “parameters invisible in reality”, such as “combat experience” and “motivation”.

 

 

The reason I came to believe this is because of Radd and his party’s training.

In retrospect, the increase in their ability value is extraordinary.

""

 

 

I don’t know the exact value of the increase in their ability values during training, but it seems to me that Radd and his party’s growth was much greater than the growth of the characters in the game, where the “Hero” compensation is supposed to increase the training efficiency in the party.

 

 

I hypothesize that this may have something to do with the “quality” of the training.

 

 

The training in-game is mechanical and uniform.

If people of the same ability and affinity were to do the same training, the results will always be the same.

 

 

However, this world is both a game and a reality.

If training in the game is the result of “very standard training with very standard enthusiasm”, it’s not inconceivable that training with even greater enthusiasm and of a higher level would produce greater efficiency than in the game.

 

 

In other words, my theory is that the growth that occurred as a result of this training was the result of a combination of the digital “game efficiency” and the real-life “motivation and skill” of the individual.

 

 

[The motivation to train really is different when you know what you’re lacking than when you’re just doing as you’re told.]

 

 

This is also the reason why I didn’t allow Resilia to participate in the battles back when they were conquering the Lava Cave.

I’ll say this clearly, Resilia is strong.

 

 

At Lv 1, she has the stats of someone with a Third-tier Class…… that is to say, she has the ability values of an average Lv 20, so even in the Lava Cave, she isn’t inferior to the others.

And more importantly, with that level of ability value, she can swing her equipment to attack without having to devote enchantments to defense unlike Radd and his party does.

 

 

Equipped with 2 rings and a small shield with carefully selected STR enchantments, her STR exceeded 300 and she was able to use my strongest sword at the moment, the <Metallic King’s Sword” I obtained at the casino, which is a few levels higher than the Brave Sword.

In addition, she has more skills that she can use manually than Radd, so if things don’t go well, she’s strong enough to conquer the Lava Cave solo.

 

 

Of course, if Resilia had been involved from the beginning, it would have been much easier for them to hunt the Slimes.

Since Resilia’s own level is also low, there’s no EXP modification for joining the party, and in terms of game efficiency, having her fight from the start would have been the optimal solution.

 

 

However, there aren’t many opportunities for one to safely struggle.

Well, I don’t really think I’m in a position to say this since I don’t really have any proper combat experience, but you can’t learn the feeling of fighting an evenly matched opponent or making decisions when you’re in a pinch unless you actually experience it.

 

 

In their last battle, against the Boss, it seems that Resilia had a hand in the fight, but that’s just the way it is.

Not just in the Lava Cave, all the Bosses in B&B are very strong.

If it had taken Resilia five attacks to defeat it, the exhausted Radd and the others probably wouldn’t have been able to win the battle on their own.

 

 

[Well, it seems that they’re on fire thanks to this, so the result is all good. Now that they’ve learned Class skills, I’m sure they’ll be able to defeat the Lava Cave’s Boss.]

 

 

As we walked along, we arrived in front of the Guild.

 

 

Just as usual, Radd and the others would be waiting for me at the Guild’s training grounds.

Having this in mind, I opened the door to the Guild without hesitation.

 

 

[……Oh.]

 

 

As I opened the door to the Guild, I could see all eyes were on us.

This was just the usual, but today’s attention feels different from yesterday.

(That’s how talked about Radd and his party’s Quest Completion huh.)

 

 

I had heard about this from Verteran and his group yesterday while waiting for Radd and the others.

 

 

Before the “Oracle of the Goddess of Salvation”, the number of monsters was slow and the Adventurers grew slowly, and it wasn’t unusual for it to take several years for a newbie to become an Adventurer capable of conquering the <Seven-Colored Lava Cave>.

 

 

The way Verteran and his group frequently muttered “The times are changing huh” holds quite the impression in my mind.

 

 

Verteran, who is a trusted member of the Guild, assured me that Radd and his party had accomplished their Quest to destroy the Boss.

Of course, no one was denying it without listening to our side at all, but judging from the quality of their stares at me, they were probably dubious that Radd and his party had really conquered the Lava Cave.

 

 

(Well, whether they believe it or not, I don’t really care either way.)

 

 

They’ve used up the boost from the level-up growth, but Radd and his party’s level should have increased enough to make up for it.

Radd and his party’s abilities would eventually become apparent, and it would only be a matter of whether they did so sooner or later.

 

 

Among Radd’s Brave Blade party, the kind-hearted Mana seemed to be especially worried about my bad reputation……

 

 

(Well, it’s probably the opposite……)

 

 

At least, even though I may be the one who’s right in this matter, perhaps because this is the game world, the guys in town, even the mobs, are mostly just nice guys worried about them.

I guess I can no longer worry about a future where they’d suddenly change their attitude quickly.

 

 

I honestly feel a sense of superiority no matter how much they talk about me behind my back, and when I think I that I can mentally sell my favor to people like Verteran, who misunderstood me on his own and apologized on his own, and who felt guilty when they learned the truth, I really want to say “More! Say more!”.

 

 

(Well, maybe that’s just because I have a bad character.)

 

 

At least, in that aspect, I wish Mana would take a cue from Radd and Prana.

I’m sure they wouldn’t even raise an eyebrow at me no matter what I said.

 

 

Anyway, what I would be doing is still the same.

While feeling the eyes looking at me from afar, I went to the training ground and went to where Radd and his party waited.

 

 

[……Hmm?]

 

 

However, when I entered the training grounds, I immediately noticed something unusual.

There was someone unfamiliar beside Radd and the others.

 

 

(Is she quibbling with them over yesterday’s matter?)

 

 

Having such thoughts in mind, I went closer, but there was something strange going on around them.

The girl talking with Radd and the others was a young Adventurer, perhaps a little older than Radd and his party.

 

 

Judging from the quality of her equipment, she’s probably around Lv 10.

She is dressed in a rather sensational leather gear, not so much as those bikini armor, but it’s as if she were a “female fantasy warrior”.

 

 

She looks tough, and it’s not surprising that she had the intimidating aura of a beautiful senpai…… but from a distance, I could tell that they don’t seem to be in that kind of mood.

No, it’s more like……

 

 

[Ah……]

 

 

As Mana saw me and turned her head to me, the woman who was picking a quarrel with Radd and the others also seemed to have noticed me.

After a slight hesitation, she ran up to me.

 

 

[Y- You’re the Rex that Radd was talking about…… Ah, no, you’re the A-Rank Adventurer, Rex-sama, right?]

[I certainly am Rex but……]

 

 

Even though she clearly isn’t accustomed to using honorifics, her respect, or rather, her desperation clearly felt from her voice.

While I was having trouble coping with the situation, she bent her body and bowed her head significantly, not caring that she was in public.
