“Ahh…”
After finishing what could be best described as a long training session rather than an intense battle, I sit on the ground feeling satisfied.
I almost finished it off because I was too worked up, but then I remembered Ayane and Aira, and had them attack before I finished it.
Apparently they’ve been growing quite a bit because of the level ups from these consecutive fights and the golden fruits. Maybe I’ll have a look after we’re done today.
“Good job, darling.”
“Sorry, I had you go along with this again.”
“Geez darling, you promised you would stop saying that.”
“Haha, sorry.”
I do get the feeling that I said something similar yesterday.
I’m a bit tired, but it’s not time for lunch yet. We still have the powered up Boss Wolf to take down.
“How long was I focused on that fight?”
“About forty minutes, longer than yesterday. You looked like you were having a lot of fun, darling.”
“I see… Well, it was fun I suppose. It looks like it’ll be a pain to edit though. I didn’t think about that.”
“Ah, darling, about that…”
Ayane looks a bit down.
“The monster’s roaring attack turned the camera off. I turned it on after Aira pointed it out, but I only got about half of it…”
“Ah, that turned it off?”
“Au, I didn’t record your cool yell…”
“Don’t worry about it…”
It’s a little embarrassing now that I think about it, so I’m okay with it not being recorded.
Still, that thing’s roar. If my ring didn’t block it, it must be a different kind of status condition compared to the Emperor Goblin’s yell. It was like I was hit in the head. I managed to fight back with a yell of my own, so there was no major issue, but I wonder how you’re supposed to deal with that.
“Aira.”
“Yes master?”
Aira finished collecting the drops, and is standing next to me all of a sudden.
“Was that roar a skill?”
“It could be a special ability not shown in the stats. Status condition attacks are troublesome powers wielded by higher ranking monsters. We have met three of these rare II monsters with special abilities, as well as yesterday’s powered up one. We should watch out for that from now on.”
“Yes.”
“Would ear plugs work against it?”
“Ear plugs…”
Ah.
“Would that roar affect us if we listened to it in a video?”
“Ah… W-who knows?”
Ayane looks at Aira with an anxious expression, but Aira smiles lightly as if to reassure her.
“Status conditions are a power placed directly on an opponent. Therefore, although a recording would be annoying, it should have no effect. In the Golden Swallowtail Butterfly video, master’s yell was not as rousing as hearing it up close.”
“You have a point!”
“Eh, ah, really?”
Rousing? That’s embarrassing to hear put like that.
“Well, leaving that aside, I’ve leveled up a bit, so I’ll roll the gacha for the first time in a while.
“Very well. But first, let me give you some of the skills of the Werewolf.”
She then gives me Swift III, Martial Arts Lv3, Grappling Lv2, and Assassination Lv2.
“Like with the Boss Wolf, there is a chance that monsters won’t spawn for a while, but I will secure the area just in case.”
“And I will stay with darling!”
“Yes, please do.”
I take the skills, and bring out the gacha.
Let’s see what I get.
Clank claaaaaank!
I get three greens, four purples, and three reds.

‘60/130 remaining’
It’s been two days, so there’s a lot to process, but…
“So that was vertigo?
I say to myself, after getting a ring to counter what I got hit with, which is natural to me at this point.
