As I check the skills, the cabinet starts shining. But it starts to die down after a while, and loses the shine. The cabinet that was a vivid red loses its color, returning to the white cabinet it was at the start.
So it does need to be charged. However, it still has a vertical line.
The sticker now says the following.
‘Thank you very much for your continued patronage.’
‘This Level Gacha has used all of its level energy.’
‘If you wish to use it again, please charge its energy.’
‘Please press the button in front to charge it.’
‘One hundred levels equals one energy point, and we will await fifty points.’
‘0/50 energy remaining’
“It was fifteen last time. The price shot up.”
“But it’s nice that it’s still one hundred levels for one point, right? It feels like it could have increased to a hundred sixty, and that would be a pain.”
“True.”
“So that means darling’s stats won’t grow for a while.”
“In the meantime, I wonder how much I can adjust without Command. It’s time to show my motivation.”
“And we’ll support you all the way.”
“Yes, I’m counting on you.”
Well then, leaving that aside, let’s see what Compression III can do.
‘Will you use Skill Compression?’
“Use.”
‘Searching for applicable skills.’
‘Applicable skills confirmed.’
‘Compressing applicable skills…’
‘Compression of applicable skill successful.’
‘Compressed SSR skill Automatic Mapping V, and BR skills Automatic Mapping β, Automatic Mapping γ, Automatic Mapping Θ, Automatic Mapping Λ, Automatic Mapping Σ, and Automatic Mapping Ω into LR skill Pocket Atlas.’
“Ooh!”
The Automatic Mapping I used so much evolved!
To be honest, its current features help me enough, but what can it do now? I’ve also caught a glimpse of a rank beyond BR, so it looks like there’s still a lot more to gacha.
“Let’s see the map then… Hn?”
I try to call the map like always, but a message appears.
‘Detecting information on conquered dungeons.’
‘Confirming item synchronization history.’
‘Will you combine features?’
It’s prompting me to pick yes or no. Is it talking about the jewel?
Combine features… If it’s showing me this, it must be important, so I pick yes.
‘Bzz’
‘Appropriate items not found.’
I feel like I hear an error message from somewhere.
“Ah. Aira, give me the teleport jewel.”
“Very well.”
Normally Aira would have it ready for me, but only I can read this message, so she couldn’t get ahead of me.
“Thanks.”
“Yes.”
I take the teleport jewel and press yes with the other hand.
‘Appropriate item detected.’
‘Combining.’
“Ooh!?”
‘Combination complete.’
‘Coordinate teleportation and visualization features feature added.’
So basically, the teleport jewel fused with the skill, and I can activate it whenever I want from the skill? It was a rare item, but it’s worth losing it. Now I don’t have to worry about it breaking either.
I wait for a bit, but no new messages appear. Is it done? Then let’s…
“Map.”
It’s nice that it’s activated the same way. I look at the map, but it’s not what I’m used to. It’s three dimensional, not flat like when I used the teleport stone, and more importantly, this map feels… like it exists.
What does this mean…?
“…Can you all see this?”
They all nod.
So it did take in the teleport jewel and made it visible. This makes it a lot easier to transmit information accurately, but the downside…
Then I see a button in the corner I recognize. I can change between floors like when I used he teleport jewel, but let’s check out the new features.
Floor selection.
1F
2F
3F
4F
5F☆
Expand features.
Teleport (Time until it can be used again / recast 0:00:00)
Visualization (restricted / ☆unrestricted)
…I see?
I press teleport to test it, and a message to designate the destination appears. I press it again, and it disappears, and there’s no change to the recast.
Next, I press visualization and restricted, and the others can’t see it anymore. After some trial and error, I learn that I can let them see it if I touch a person while the map is out and press the allow button.
Also, people are still white spots on this map, and people who can see it, myself included, are blue spots.
“All right then. Since it needed Automatic Mapping β, Automatic Mapping γ, and so forth to evolve, I assume there are more features.”
“It doesn’t feel different from what we saw on the third floor.”
“Even the teleportation and visualization features.”
“You could all see the jewel, so maybe it comes with teleport.”
As we talk, Ayane raises her hand.
“Darling, darling!”
“Hn?”
“It looks like we can touch this map!”
Ayane’s small fingers touch a red spot, and that activates a feature we never thought of.
