Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha - Chapter 49
# 49
49. Let me know of failure (4)
Light leaked from the open door of the inn.
I knew in advance by message, but not Edith.
said Edith, looking out the door.
“Looks like the newcomers are here.”
“Right.”
“For guys like Uncle Roderick and Iolka, it’s time to draft
.”
“what?”
“I’ll know when I see it.”
I put down my teacup and got up. and went out to the square.
At the entrance to the summoning station in the plaza, three men and women were gathered.
“Well, so let’s talk…”
“I don’t like it! You smell like a widower. You know?”
“What did you say? This bitch looks good on you!”
“Are you complacent because I’m a woman? Funny bastard.”
The two men and women who were arguing drew their weapons.
[‘Mazel(★★★)’ shows hostility towards ‘Tasir(★★★)’!]
[‘Tasir(★★★)’ shows hostility towards ‘Mazel(★★★)’ !]
[Enmity has been established! Observe carefully between the heroes!]
Is it like that as soon as it arrives?
Beyond the absurdity, laughter came out.
“Am I the one who came first?”
A blonde young man wearing fancy armor and carrying a sword approached me. He has the impression of being more like a boy than a young man. A childish image remained on his features.
I answered.
“however.”
“I’m Stein Rastov. I’m an apprentice knight. If you don’t mind, why don’t you stop the two of us with me? I just don’t listen to what I say…
”
“what!”
“I agree with you. Who listens to the young boy who is good-natured after meeting his parents?”
“I will forgive you for insulting me, but I will not forgive you for insulting my parents!”
[‘Stein (★★★)’ shows hostility to ‘Mazel (★★★)’ and ‘Tasir (★★★)’!]
Chareung!
Stein drew his longsword and ran towards the two.
The composition of the confrontation changed from two to three.
“What? What are they doing?”
Edith, who came out late, made an absurd expression.
‘The personality doesn’t fit.’
Compatibility exists between heroes.
There are heroes who get bonus stats when put together in a party, while there are also heroes who lower each other’s abilities. Still, it was not uncommon for a hostile relationship to be created immediately after being summoned and to go to the point of sword fighting.
“Teach the cheeky bastard some manners!”
It was Tasir, a man with a shabby impression, who took the lead.
Tasir’s chain scythe spun in a spiral and fired at Stein.
Kang!
The chain sickle hit a transparent wall and was thwarted.
[Why are these things like this! it’s crazy? Do you want to die?]
Isel, who appeared late, widened his eyes.
“What are you?”
[Speaking of me, Isel! It is the master’s representative. don’t mess around He’s a lot stronger than you guys.]
“…Master.”
Stein frowned. It was like something in my memory.
[Anyway, don’t fight recklessly in the waiting room. don’t look twice Do you know?]
“Then, keep this boy and the beggar apart. It doesn’t suit me very well. Yes, if we have a party… with that brother.”
Mazel pointed at me.
Mazel, who has applied heavy makeup, is wearing a costume with a slit on the side. In his right hand he held a sword with a saw blade. Anyway, I don’t think I’m old enough to call me oppa.
[The party is not decided by you. The Master decides.]
Isel dismissed Mazel’s request and disappeared.
Then the party composition window came to mind.
[Form a party.]
[Drag and drop heroes!]
[‘Stein (★★★)’ joins ‘Party 3’!]
[‘Mazel (★★★)’ joins ‘Party 3’ We’re joining!]
[‘Tasir (★★★)’ joins ‘Party 3’!]
‘Are you going with those 3?’
Heroes with hostile relationships are put into the same party.
Efficiency is the worst.
You may be able to dissolve the relationship by getting along over time, but Amkena will not have that idea.
[Open up, open the space-time!]
If that was the case, he wouldn’t have sent the three of them to the field in this imminent situation.
I sighed and went back to my inn.
I didn’t even have to look any further. Edith followed and asked.
“Han, where are you going?”
“I need to get some sleep.”
“Those people.”
“I can’t come back.”
I went into my room at the hostel and sat down on the bed.
Sure enough, the expected system message popped up at the top.
[‘Tasir (★★★)’ has gone into a frenzy.]
[Allied attack!]
[‘Stein (★★★)’ is bleeding. HP decreases at regular intervals.]
[‘Stein (★★★)’ has gone into a frenzy.]
[Allies attack!]
Frenzy status abnormal.
It is a state of recognizing allies as enemies.
Isel couldn’t even block it on stage.
[‘Mazel (★★★)’ has gone into a frenzy.]
[Allies attack!]
I don’t know exactly how many floors I went to, but I can guess that it’s not a lower floor.
If that were the case, I wouldn’t have let Iolka, who just came in, climb high.
[‘Stein (★★★)’ ally killed!]
[‘Tasir (★★★)’ returned to the arms of the goddess. His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]
The first to die was Tasir.
A second death message was subsequently updated.
[‘Mazel (★★★)’ returned to the arms of the goddess. Her fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]
[‘Starin (★★★)’ falls into despair. All stats are reduced by 80%.]
After a while.
[‘Stein (★★★)’ returned to the arms of the goddess. His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]
[The ‘3rd party’ was wiped out.]
[You Lose!]
The 3rd party was wiped out without even ending a single battle.
It was the first annihilation since the last free 10-year draw.
The price is the death of 3 stars.
[Are you sure you want to terminate the master connection?]
[Yes (optional) / No]
[Then, goodbye!] As
soon as the annihilation message appeared, Amkena disconnected.
Isel appeared with tears welling up in his eyes.
[Loki!]
“Why?”
[how how! Isn’t it really folding?]
“It can be folded.”
[Then I am and we are!]
“How will it be?”
[If the master doesn’t connect for a certain period of time, the account will be deleted. You know Loki! You can’t fold it at all!]
I see.
I know. If you don’t log in for six months in real time, that account will disappear. I couldn’t even recover. Converting this to the time in the waiting room would be 1 year and 6 months.
[I can’t maintain the waiting room without a master. I can’t get any interference! i will disappear I was just born!]
“Don’t make a fuss. It’s not confirmed.”
[But…] Even
if Amkena disappears right now, I will be able to cover it up a bit by using the power of my master. However, it is not complete. I still need Amkena. I knew that too. I said with a smile.
“Don’t worry.
[Really?]
I nodded.
[Ah Okay. Then I’ll believe it.]
“By the way, why are you so desperate? Will you die if you don’t climb the tower?”
[Yes.]
“You’re going to die?”
[Disappear.]
“…”
I think I asked a useless question.
After Isel passed away, I was in trouble.
Will the strike be lifted the next time Amkena returns or will it be maintained. Although he said it as if he was confident, the possibility that Amkena will fold is not zero. Then it was me who was in trouble.
‘for a moment.’
if six months.
Niflheim is…
‘Isn’t there time.’
I frowned.
The conclusion came out.
‘The strike will not be resolved.’
For high-speed climbing, such a base is indispensable.
It seemed necessary to keep it until it was confirmed that Amkena had completely changed her mind. even if the results turn out to be bad.
A more certain failure was needed.
Fold or equivalent.
All I could do now was wait for an opportunity to come.
evening the next day.
Amkena, who logged in earlier than usual, immediately opened the control window and charged the gem.
A payment instructions message popped up.
[If you want something right now, pay now!]
[Mobius supports the master’s choice!]
[You selected ‘Gold Triple Package!’]
[Package components – 3 5000 gem gift certificates]
[All of this for only 90,000 won Eh!]
[The amount will be added to the next month’s mobile phone bill. Do you really want to pay?]
[Yes (optional) / No] After
receiving the reward from the mailbox, Amkena immediately started the paid draw.
[Master Advanced Summons begin. I can’t wait to see what kind of hero will come out!]
[Talkak dururu.]
[Two-kwang!]
[Rare!]
[Master ‘Amkena’ has acquired the hero ‘Nokkin (★★★)’!] [
Rare!]
[Master ‘Amkena’ has learned the hero ‘Winard (★★★)’!]
[Rare!]
[Master ‘Amkena’…]
As expected, it’s a 3 consecutive summon.
I can understand why there are 3 of them. At the training ground, there were a few 1-stars who didn’t make it to any party.
Form a party by properly combining low-ranking and high-ranking heroes. I’m trying to pick up this strategy somewhere and follow it. Without knowing the principles and methods required there.
I laughed.
When a crow follows a stork, the crotch is torn.
If you just want to do that, it’s better to summon 5 times.
These three people were not the worst match.
One person fell into a dying state, but the test was completed safely. He seemed to have a good understanding of his role. Amkena presented gift certificates obtained in the gold package to three people. Up to 2 people from 1 star who were playing joined in, creating a party of 5 people.
The ‘Party 3’ completed in this way immediately started leveling up by rolling on the lower floors.
a few days later
Jenna, who was running after me at the training center, said.
“Isn’t it dangerous?”
“what?”
“Those people. I think our seats could be taken away.”
I saw the corner of the training camp.
There, the members of the 3 parties were gathering and sparring.
Three 3-stars, who are the main axis, and two 1-stars who are inferior to them.
Every time the wooden sword is swung, blood bruises are engraved all over the body of one star.
It was a sight more like abuse than sparring.
“Leave it alone.”
One of the 3 stars in the 3rd party made eye contact with me.
The boy looked away frantically.
The disposition of those three people is not like that of a rampaging maned wolf, but they are not nice either.
From the first day I came here, they had been arguing with me, so I trained them with Edith. Of course, the content of education was to be beaten to the point of not dying.
More time passed.
The 3rd party grew steadily without dropping out. Two prosecutors and one Changsu. two archers. There is no mage, but the job balance is not bad. Amkena’s plan seemed to be working.
“Do you know why they don’t go out? They’ve been abandoned by the Master, uhhh. We’ll be able to eat them when we grow a little more. Oh, except for the wizard woman. We’ll have to put them in our party.”
“Isn’t the party already full?”
“There are two worthless cubs. You just need to get rid of one.”
“Ooh. That’s an interesting opinion.”
“That’s right. This is… ugh!”
Norkin, who had been gathering at the restaurant and talking behind his back, looked back.
A 3 star and the leader of the 3 parties. And level 8.
Norkin said while sweating profusely.
“Hey, what brought you here?”
“I’m going to drink some water. Talk about what you were talking about.”
“It’s nothing. Haha. Let’s go to sleep.”
The three members of the third party scattered like a swarm of flies.
‘I can’t find anything like teamwork even after washing my eyes.’
The 1st star in the same party is not even treated as a person.
Still, Amkena will be satisfied.
In many ways, it was creaky, but the 3rd party broke through the 14th floor.
It seems that the 13th and 14th floors were easy. The 12th floor would have been a difficult reaction.
Or maybe you just got lucky.
I looked for it just in case, but the stream, which is a token of the linked quest, was not activated.
The 15th floor was likely to be a small mission that could be solved with only 5 people in one party.
None of the 3 parties exceeded level 10.
But Amkena will take on the challenge.
I’ve done that all along and never failed. And as soon as the 3rd party penetrates the 15th floor, we will be synthesized as Nokin said.
I drank some water and went back to my room.
It looked like we would see an interesting sight sooner or later.
That was the turning point.
