Update for 3/1.
Next update is scheduled for 3/26.
After the successful buffet.
Kyouma and Sumihime were asked to give a speech in front of everyone.
By the way, the leftover food was stored in ‘Inventory’, so we can eat it anytime.
We’re very grateful to Shion and the cooking team. Anyway.
“I proposed something to Koji Sozuku and the others yesterday, and I got formal permission today, so I’ll report it.”
Many of you know about our Seiren’s barrier. Considering the increasing number of monsters, the defense of our base will become even more important.
Seiren looks happy when she hears the phrase ‘our Seiren’.
She used to be a cool and aloof girl, but how adorable she is now.
“So, we’ve decided to become neighbors with his party.”
Neighbors…? The girls who still can’t quite grasp the situation murmur.
「We currently have our base in a vast open field. I thought it might be a good idea to move the Clear Phoenix party’s base next to ours.」
「We won’t be merging into either party. We’ll remain independent, but our bases will be right next to each other.」
「So, we’ll be like neighbors, right?」
Clear Phoenix explained the benefits in a smooth manner.
I thought there would be some resistance, but everyone showed signs of happiness.
「Yay!」「I knew I wouldn’t get the same treatment as Chiyu-chan, but I’m happy just to get a daily bath.」「Kouno…」
Hmm, everyone seems happy… Wait, wasn’t there someone acting strange?
I couldn’t tell who it was, but they seemed to be overreacting. 「Then, let’s move!」
Clear Phoenix’s summary was met with cheers.
Moving isn’t difficult.
I’ll put all the luggage in my ‘Inventory’.
The girls will ride on the phantoms.
Fenrir’s Mashiro took on the responsibility of carrying seven girls on her back.
Hiro of the fluffy griffins took five.
The remaining twelve were all riding on the back of the black dragon, Mikuron.
Considering her body length, there was plenty of room, but I was worried about whether the weight would be okay, but it seems to be fine.
I had Senyuu cast “Enhanced Strength” on me and started running.
Once we arrived at the grassland, I first set up the base for the Clear Phoenix party and had the girls get off.
Then I asked Seirin to wrap it in a barrier.
After having another barrier deployed, I set up our base there.
This way, the two parties are adjacent but in different barriers, so their bases are not visible to each other.
They can’t see each other, but they are next to each other, and those with permission can go back and forth.
“We’ll proceed as planned and aim for ‘Memory Inheritance’ and ‘The Right of Dual Choice.’”
“Mm. Trent and slime unique individuals.”
「Well, since I can’t rely on Mashiro’s sense of smell, we’ll have to search for them.」
「My ability probably won’t be much help in monster hunting, so I’ll probably just stay behind.」
「With Mashiro, Mikron, and Hyrul, should we split into three groups?」
「If we’re splitting up, I think we should go in two groups. I was thinking of sending one of them to the Seikou party, but what do you think?」
「Okay! What’s Mashiro? You want to volunteer? Hahaha, you’re such a perv.」
Mashiro probably doesn’t want to miss the chance to ride with the Seikou party’s girls.
He’s still a Fenrir who loves girls.
「Alright, then I’ll ask Mashiro. And before we decide on the groups, I want to share the details of my enhanced abilities.」 Everyone nods in agreement.
「I’ve unlocked the ‘Composite Attribute.’ In addition to the four attributes I had before, I can now use ice and lightning magic. These too will increase in power as I gain more experience, so I’ll work hard.」
Shinpo clenches her fists in front of her chest, showing her determination. 「Yeah, we’re counting on you.」
Still, ice and lightning… She’s becoming more and more like a mage, and it looks cool.
「I showed you my harvest, but it’s ‘Condition Addition.’ The conditions I can set when I create a barrier have expanded. Depending on the conditions, I can split anyone standing at the boundary in half. The size options have also diversified, so I can form shields or spears, not just something that someone can fit in. That’s about it. Does it sound like it’ll be useful for you, Sou-suke?」
Serina gives me a smug smile. She’s like a kid waiting to be praised.
“Ah, Serina’s counting on me.” “Leave it to me.”
“The Teacher’s ability is ‘Light and Heat Manipulation.’ Within the daytime, she can create light and heat magic beyond what her current power allows. That’s because… she can now interfere with the natural light and heat.”
When the Teacher held out her hand, a sizzling sound accompanied the nearby grass burning and the ground being exposed.
It was like when she focused sunlight with a magnifying glass…
“Was that… did you interfere with sunlight?”
“Y-Yes. We need to be careful not to involve everyone, but as long as the sun is out, I think I can be more useful in battle.” “S-She’s amazing…”
The ‘Ability Awakening’ has proven to be quite beneficial for those who have gained it.
It’s a huge relief that our cheaty friends have become even more cheaty. All that’s left is me and Senyuu.
I’m concerned about Senyuu’s silence, but I need to finish explaining my own ability.
“I got ‘Production Assistance.’ This one covers multiple abilities… First, I can sense the location of ‘Discovered Materials’ intuitively.”
“Ah, like when you’re gathering materials in a game and the map shows where they are?”
Shelena seemed to immediately understand.
“That’s right. We have a map, but the convenient thing about this feature is that it lets us know where things are, even in places we haven’t explored yet.”
It wasn’t like a map was displayed in their minds, but rather a sixth sense that allowed them to know directions and distances.
“So, does that mean we can know where all the apples are on the island, not just the area where we first found them?” Shiho’s words made me nod. “That’s right.”
Creating maps showing where materials are would be quite efficient.
“Ah, yeah. It’s definitely convenient, like when you’re collecting materials to level up in a social game. Knowing which quests to do would make it a lot easier.”
Shouko seemed to understand the convenience of it too.
“The next one is ‘Expanded Craft Judgment.’ As expected, it can’t create dishes themselves, but it seems like we can now create things that couldn’t be generated with the ‘Cooking’ judgment before.”
Specifically, things like tofu, which couldn’t be created before, could now be generated.
It was a rough allowance for the creation of ingredients before cooking.
Seasonings and alcohol could also be generated more widely than before, so I wanted to try making a lot of different things. “Wow, that’s amazing!”
“As expected of my master.”
Shion and Roa were genuinely happy to be involved with the cooking.
“And this is the last one, but ‘Monster Material Craft’ has been added.”
”…Does this mean there’s a way to collect monster materials even though they disappear when you defeat them?”
Deep Law pondered as she touched her chin.
“Yeah. It seems like you can store parts that you cut off before defeating them. However, even if you cut them off, the parts will disappear once the monster is defeated.”
“Do you need to collect them after cutting them off but before defeating the monster?”
I nodded in response to Senyuu’s question.
“It seems like once you store them, you can put them back after defeating the monster without them disappearing.”
“What can you make with monster materials…?”
“Like, make a potion that only dissolves slime clothes or something?”
While Lumina-sensei thought seriously about it, Junme laughed mockingly.
“I don’t think Kouno would do something like that…” Hanzou defended me. I was glad.
「No, I know that too. But if the girls agree, Souya will do it.」
Jumoa accurately pinpoints the boys’ fantasies.
Forcing someone is unacceptable, but if the other party consents… no, let’s not think about that now.
「Sou-chan, do you like that kind of thing? I’m always up for it.」
Seirin comes closer and grabs my arm.
「Hehe, I’ll do it for Souya-kun’s sake too. But, my uniform doesn’t have a spare, so please use clothes I can remake.」 Even Shion says something like that.
「Ah… I’m glad you feel that way. But, we still haven’t talked about Senyuu.」 I try to steer the conversation back to the main topic. 「Oh, the main event.」
She’s overly confident. She’s expressionless, but I can tell.
「What kind of magic did Senyuu learn?」
「My enhancements are two. One is ‘expanded effect range’. In other words, I went from single-target healing to area healing.」
「Wow! That’s a pretty legitimate evolution for a White Mage’s magic.」
Once you learn area healing in an RPG, how much easier it makes things.
Compared to individual recovery, the amount of recovery per person decreases, but since there’s no concept of MP or turns here, it’s possible to stack them repeatedly as many times as you want.
Considering that, it can be said that this is an upper-level alternative with only benefits.
“I have obtained the power to change our lives on this desert island.”
“Wow, you’re being a bit dramatic. How can white magic change our lives?” And Senyuu said this.
“Contraception—white magic often found in erotic works.”
This is how it appeared at this timing.
The actual usage scene is still a bit away, but I hope you will continue to follow along.
