Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha - Chapter 27
# 27
27. Paid 5-Year Draw (2)
Rather, it was later than expected.
If it were me, I would have pulled it out before climbing the 5th floor and put it in the party.
Anyway, if you look at the message alone, all five of them are 3 stars.
However, an unusual message appeared below.
[Tee-ring!]
[I feel a strong connection among the five summoned people.]
[A bond ‘Maned Wolf Mercenary Corps’ has been created!]
[Tips/If you draw consecutively, there is a very low chance that a hero with a connection to each other will be summoned. . When they belong to the same party, they demonstrate stronger fighting power than alone.]
‘Bondage.’
This is a rare system.
Destiny is a kind of set concept, and if you mix and send them to the same party, you will receive a combat bonus. It was a very rare case even in consecutive draws.
Whether Amkena is lucky or bad, you will know for yourself when you see it.
“So, where are they now?”
“I’m looking around, saying I’m looking around here.”
“You go back to the kitchen.”
“They…”
“They don’t eat you. It’s because they’re unusual.”
Chloe nodded and went into the dorm.
“Is your older brother similar to them?”
“I’m different.”
I sheathed my sword and put my shield on my back.
“The party is disbanded here! It won’t change even if an unusual newcomer has arrived. You can just go on as you normally would.”
“Thank you for your effort!”
Aaron and Dicka bowed to me and entered the training center.
The clock in the square points to evening. They were diligent guys.
“You’re going to check them out, aren’t you?”
“for now.”
“I want to go with you. I was curious about it anyway.”
Currently, the facilities installed in the waiting room are the lodging, training center, arsenal, and equipment workshop. this is your place
I decided to go to the nearest lodging first.
There was a woman I had never seen before in the lobby.
“hello!”
Jenna walked up to her and shouted.
The woman who was looking at the fireplace was surprised and hesitated.
“Oh, hello…”
“I’m Jenna Shirai! What’s your sister’s name?”
“Edith Carlen.”
“Please take good care of me!”
Jenna held out her hand.
Edith hesitated for a moment before taking her hand.
“This handsome older brother is Han. He’s blunt but warm inside.”
“shut up.”
I sat down on the sofa in the lobby.
“I said Edith. I’d like to talk to you. Do you have time?”
As I said I looked at Edith.
brown eyes. Long black curly hair hangs down.
He was wearing pitch-black leather armor, with two daggers and a small shortbow hanging from his belt.
‘Status window.’
[Edith Carlen (★★★) Lv.1(Exp 0/10)]
[Class: Thief]
[Strength: 13/13]
[Intelligence: 10/10]
[Stamina: 14/14]
[Agility: 17/17]
[Possessed Skills: Lesser Dagger Skills (Lv.3) Lesser Archery (Lv.1) Quick Moves (Lv.1)]
As expected, he came out with a 3-star job.
It is a typical thief type with low strength and stamina and high agility.
There are three preceding skills. Lesser dagger skills, archery skills, and quick movements. Similar to Jenna, but with a dagger rather than a bow.
Jenna brought two glasses of water.
“Sit down for now.”
“…”
Edith squatted on the sofa opposite and took a drink.
then asked
“Do you know about this place?”
“Some things you know, some things you don’t. How are you? How much do you know? Do you remember how you came here?”
“I don’t know that much. All I know is I…”
Edith narrowed her eyes, as if trying to recall. And he stuttered.
“To fight… to be summoned here.”
“Summon to fight.”
“It just feels like it should.”
“Why?”
“My head hurts when I try to recall it…
”
I sighed and then continued.
“Do you know of synthetics?”
“Synthesis…”
Edith muttered after pondering.
“Sacrifice others to become stronger.”
“I know.”
Beyond that, the question continued. Are you aware of the Master’s existence?
After thinking for a while, Edith asked back if she was the one who ruled this place. The concept seemed familiar. I also knew a lot about summoning.
However, it seemed that he did not know detailed concepts such as level and skill.
I looked back at the impressions of the summoned people, from Shay at the beginning to Edith now.
The first stars, including Jenna and Aaron, came here without knowing why they were summoned and what to do. The 4-adult Shay seemed to have noticed why he had to fight.
And Edith in front of me doesn’t know why she was summoned, but she knows what to do. He also had the concept of a Master and even knew how to synthesize it.
‘The information gap is divided according to the summoned grade.’
Having come to a simple conclusion, I continued.
“I think you were a mercenary before you came here.”
“It was the Maned Wolf Mercenary.”
“Maned wolf? That sounds good.”
Jenna sat next to me and smiled single.
“I remember doing mercenary work in Halsea, but when I woke up, it was here.”
Edith began to explain in detail how the Maned Wolf Mercenary Corps was formed and what they mainly did.
Roughly speaking, it seems to be a fairly high level among mercenaries. Although they were the same mercenaries, they seemed to have a gap with the 2-star Mormont.
“It’s wonderful! I have a romance.”
“That’s right?”
Jenna said with her eyes twinkling.
Edith bowed her head in embarrassment. Then, all of a sudden, I let out a deep sigh.
“But now…”
“Now?”
“never mind.”
then don’t tell me
“Why is your brother reacting like that? The story of a lady’s past is a treasure that cannot be obtained even with a thousand gold.”
“I see.”
“Because it’s really dull.”
I got up from the sofa.
I thought it would be a lot to hear, but it wasn’t.
At least I wanted to know how it was summoned.
You might know something about the guy who put me here.
“I sleep well. You guide me.”
“Come on, between us girls…”
[Avant Zaken Waif Bagnin Edith!]
Isel’s voice came from the plaza.
As I was about to enter the dorm, I stopped.
‘I can’t sleep yet.’
Since this is the first high-level hero I picked after the tutorial, I guess I wanted to test drive it. A giant appeared at the entrance of the restaurant.
“Who is it! Who is calling my name?”
The man is a head taller than me and has broad shoulders.
She wore the same leather armor as Edith and carried a large ax on her back.
Looking at the status window, the name Jaken came to mind. It was a warrior class that was distributed based on strength and stamina.
If you look at your body, you can tell without even looking at it.
“I think the Master is calling.”
Edith rose from the couch.
“It’s been a while since I’ve had meat, but I want to see that man’s face!”
Jaqen went out into the square with Edith.
Served with grilled venison hind leg meat.
He didn’t even look at me and Jenna.
“That’s something everyone should share!”
Chloe ran out of the restaurant.
I asked Chloe.
“What’s going on?”
“He said he wanted to eat meat, so he took a whole leg and left. If he cooks well, he can eat five people…” ”
Then I’ll ask for it back!”
Jenna clenched her fists and stood up.
“wait.”
“why?”
“Let’s go out to the square for now.”
We came out to the square.
A rare sight unfolded.
Almost everyone in the waiting room has gathered. They murmured in a corner and looked at the source of the commotion.
I also chose a suitable bench and sat down.
Five people stood in the center of the square.
Five men and women in black leather armor.
[Modify the name of ‘Party 5’ to ‘Maned Wolf’. Are you okay?]
[Yes (selection) / No]
Amkena was preparing to organize a fixed party.
It seems that he liked it quite a bit.
[Form a party.]
[Drag and drop heroes!]
[‘Avant (★★★)’ joins ‘Maned Wolf’!]
[‘Jaken (★★★)’ joins ‘Maned Wolf’ [
‘Waif (★★★)’ joins ‘Maned Wolf’!]
[‘Baignin (★★★)’ joins ‘Maned Wolf’!]
[‘Edith (★★★) )’ joins ‘Maned Wolf’!]
[‘Avant (★★★)’ has been set as the leader of the ‘Maned Wolf’ team!]
[Open the space-time gap!]
Knocked up.
The door in front of the plaza opened.
“Are you sending it right away?”
A sharp-looking man in the middle of the party muttered.
A vertical knife mark was etched over his right eye.
I quickly glanced at his status window. My name is Avant Dezik. Looking at his stats and skills, he is a speed-oriented warrior using a one-handed sword.
‘That guy is the leader.’
The other four are quietly watching Avant.
[Let’s go, newcomers! Go in! Master waits!]
“I know even if you don’t tell me.”
“Where shall we go on a rampage!”
Avant was the first to enter the space-time gap.
Jaqen followed, throwing back his bony hind leg.
After that, Edith was at the very end of Waif and Bagnin.
‘There is no wizard.’
Research needs to be opened to become more comfortable with each other, but it seems that no luck has followed it yet.
The Maned Wolf Mercenary consisted of four warriors and one rogue.
When all five entered, the space-time gap closed.
“Ha, Mr. Han!”
A middle-aged man approached me as I was sitting.
It was Joffrey, whom he had met in the Forest Days Dungeon.
“What is it?”
“You know those people? Something’s strange!”
“They’re people I don’t know.”
“You’re not wearing a weapon!”
“I am wearing a weapon.”
“That’s how it feels…”
“Don’t you think they’re good people?”
“exactly!”
I laughed.
That was the cause of the commotion.
They don’t seem like nice people.
But they have power.
“Jenna, what do you think those people look like?”
“The Maned Wolf Mercenaries? Well, Edith looks nice. I don’t know about the rest.”
I looked back at Joffrey and said.
“So, Mr. Joffrey, what are you saying to me? Protect me?”
“I’d appreciate it…”
“For free?”
“That, that’s…” I
looked around.
Dozens of pairs of pupils were looking at me.
Those pupils were the same as Joffrey’s. “If you want to protect it like that ,
you just have to become strong yourself. When you train softly, when do you come and ask for help now? Aren’t you embarrassed? Besides, is there any guarantee they’ll hurt you? This
is only a bunch of weaklings.”
“You’re strong!”
“If you look strong, clinging on and cringing is the way you guys survive?
” It’s not too weak to protect it. Even so, it was a daily routine for them to wield a round sword at the training ground and then go back and eat the meat Jenna hunted and Chloe cooked. It’s not like learning a skill. If you want, Chloe or craftsmen in your
spare
time Even though they could have learned the skill from them.
These guys were very clever.
They were just pretending to work hard and escaping synthesis by taking advantage of the fact that Amkena didn’t look closely.
That said, I don’t really want or bother them. Anyway,
once the master has a knack, it’s natural These are the ones who will disappear. But this is a different story.
“Go away. Before I get mad.”
The gathered people hurriedly dispersed.
What was left in the square was me, Jenna, Aaron, and Dicka.
The four of us who went to the 6th floor were the same.
“Aaron.”
“Yes, brother.
” While they were dying, they were all asleep, cuddling with a goblin or two.” “I
know that.”
“Then straighten your face. It doesn’t look good.”
“Yeah…”
I looked at Dicka.
“So, what happened, Dicka?”
“What do you mean…”
“What happened? We had a fight just now.”
“How did you know?”
“Your face has become sore, do you think you wouldn’t know?” It’s
okay now, but when it came out to the square, Dika’s face was swollen and bluish. It was an obvious trace of beating.
Dika replied with a sullen expression,
“It was a simple sparring. The newcomer asked for sparring, so we fought and ended up like this.”
“Is that really all there is to it? Aaron, you must have seen it from the side, too, right?”
Aaron, who was clenching his fists, closed his eyes and said,
“That’s not all.”
“…Okay. Go in and rest
. ”
I’m going to have a look.”
It was very late.
Aaron and Dicka bowed to me and went back to the inn.
“Why aren’t you coming back?”
Jenna whistled beside me and groaned.
I laughed.
