Chapter 361: CH.355 Telling Alice and Lua about Wilma

“Do you know why she got it?” Alice asked.

I was in my room with Alice and Lua, discussing the new System Support Holder.

“It was for coming up with a new way to synthesize a legendary grade metal.” I answered.

“... but aren’t you and your monsters the ones that came up with it?” Lua asked.

“Yeah, but that was only in the Factory. And while I did summon some monsters to help Wilma in the process, she was the one leading the forging, and apparently that counts.”

“Sounds almost like cheating.” Alice commented.

“Well, you got yours for taking down a behemoth. Which you probably couldn’t have done were it not for the prophecy power-up and maybe even the fusion, so who really is cheating?”

“... did what I do count as cheating?” Lua asked.

“... not sure. I mean, you did heal me when I was about to die. And you did it with your own skills, so… I don’t think so?”

“But I got that little System screen that instructed me to use the Summon Water Spirit skill. What was that about?”

“No clue. Maybe the Goddess, or some System Agent, didn’t want me to die and showed you a way out? Yeah. It had to have been Aulis, right? He is basically our System Stalker, I think.”

“Because of me, right?” Alice asked.

“Maybe. He did have his focus on the Alewatch area because of the prophecy.” I reminded her. “Or maybe there was a different, less known prophecy about someone healing someone else who was critically injured? But because of the lack of notoriety, all it did was show Lua a way to heal me?”

“I can see that. It did feel like someone helped me for no reason.” Lua agreed. “... but what do we do about Wilma? … did Laura make a link with her SS yet?”

“No. Not yet.” I answered. “I did consider it, but decided we should talk about this first. If I do allow the link, she could access the Factory, and that should be useful for her. She could prototype weapons and stuff there. So in a way, I want to allow the link. But also, if we do the link, she will soon learn that the two of you also have the SS, so if you don’t want that, we have to either not link with her, or come up with a way to keep it a secret.”

 

“... Is it a problem if she finds out?” Alice asked.

“No. Not really. I mean, if she were to tell anyone about it, the fact that she has the SS would come out. It is just … if you want to keep it a secret from her. I know the two of you aren’t quite as open about it as I am.”

“It is just easier to hide it and let you take care of public problems.” Lua said.

“I don’t mind dealing with them, so I could reveal it.” Alice said.

“Either way is fine with me. I mean, I think if we keep taking down SS-rank monsters, people will start to assume that Alice has the SS.” I commented. “Of course, Lua, you haven’t done any big publicity stunts that would be known to the masses. Your fame is only known in the dhampir villages.”

“... maybe the right situation just hasn’t shown itself.” She said.

“Perhaps. Or maybe you are just a hidden monarch.”

“... I guess I should speak about that as well.” Lua quickly said, as I brought up her race.

“..? About what?”

“... I got my racial skill, Monarch of Magic.” Lua revealed.

“Really?” Alice asked. “What does it do? Tell me!”
