A Certain Middle-aged Man’s VRMMO Activity Log

Its been several days now.

The players who can smoothly cooperate with their Fairies have certainly increased.

In particular some verifiers have found the benefits of chain reactions to be huge.

The way Arts worked up until now, youd find the best timing in the action to make your one shot and thats it.

But now, with the Fairies attacks mixed in, the monsters defenses are dropped in a very short time.

For that reason, interspersing Fairy attacks between Arts will increase the offensive power by 1.2 times.

Since people are always looking for more ways to deal damage, even if just by a little, the effects of having an active Fairy are huge whether you play solo or with a party.

And then, just for those cooperation purposes youll need the [Fairy Language] skill.

If you dont have [Fairy Language], they can still assist you and attack, and they will roughly understand the orders you give them.

However, with [Fairy Language] things like making requests of Fairies or knowing your own Fairys status and the Arts it can use will be transmitted with magic.

Also, even in the middle of combat you could give the Fairy detailed instructions, such as telling the Fairy to use its Arts after your own attack, like attack with magic, and then that youll follow it up with another attack.

[Fairy Language] requires 0 EXP to take, so theres no reason to hesitate taking it; if you think about a Fairy like an extra troop the skill is definitely necessary.

Even if youre playing solo, its great being able to tell your Fairy to launch a large, one-shot Art; in a party, telling a Fairy to attack after the vanguards players have gone in, and to attack over the players attacks, will make defeating opponents more efficient.

As a result, those who think of Fairies as not just another npc, that is the players who view Fairies as partners, and those who Conversely think of Fairies as just game data to be used, that is the players who view Fairies as slaves, started getting into fights often.

For the players on the Partner side, since the Fairies properly respond when talked to, its fun to share food and eat together and enjoy their company.

I dont know if its the AI, but honestly theres some under the impression that the Fairies are alive, and that treating them with violence wont be good.

On the other hand, theres the no matter how you look at them, theyre game data.

They dont tire no matter how much you make them fight, and you should fully take advantage of the Fairies with buffs and heals

Even if you dont feed them they wont starve to death, and their abilities wont falter either.

So theres no problem even if you treat them like slaves.

Theres also been an increase in people who hit their Fairy to make it behave if it showed any rebellious signs.

Again and again countless PVP fights broke out repeatedly, and no one would say, Respect each others ways of thinking.

The arguments that popped up again and again were detestable.

Since its gotten like that, they made a simple deal; after it was circulated on some influential info sites, that deal became an unspoken agreement.

Even though its a Dance, a foul current has flowed through and tainted the atmosphere.

I was in the middle of that current, though only to the point of understanding the situation, and was continuing to steadily raise [Whip] and [Thief].

When [Whip] reached LV10, an Art with the name appeared and I practiced it repeatedly.

As it is, this Art is an attack that uses the whip to entwine around an opponent and seal its movements, but it wont work if you cant swing the whip well; its an Art with some difficult requirements.

However, the result is undeniably outstanding; right now Ive only wrapped the front legs of the Dread Wolf together, but just disabling the front legs has made it impossible for him to rush at me.

Once hes in this state, even if I let go of the whip it remains entangling him and hes unable to run away.

After that I only need to loose an arrow or let fly a kick to end the struggling Dread Wolf.

and suppress my sound and presence, allowing me to get within range to use the whip, and constricts their legs, allowing me to pierce them while theyre unable to move.

If Im able to move like this, pretty soon Ill be able to enter a dungeon.

Once [Thief] reached LV10, I am finally able to use the ability for the first time so Im thinking it might be a good time to start thinking about heading into a dungeon to try it out.

My goal is to be able to quietly sneak about through dungeon-like conditions; in order to do so with just my own abilities, I absolutely have to raise the [Thief] skill to learn .

Im not looking to hoard Items or money, and I wont be able to rake it in like the parties who team up with that in mind and take actions to defeat monsters in the shortest amount of time possible.

Right now thats not what Im going for. The earnings from walking a dungeon is raising my skills a little more; its never too late to do that.

While Im thinking about all of that, around me, like always, the fairies are *float float* softly floating about.

And like always theyre playing around with my Broken Fairy Contract Crystal.

It cant be helped; lets go find a Tailor crafter and request a cord that I can use as a necklace to hang it around my neck.

Even when I put it back in the Item Box they still come swarming to my breast pocket and *poke poke* nudge it; it feels like theyre saying [Displeased!] somehow.

The time when I went to the forge to do maintenance on the Blade Shoes, the time when I was cooking, and even the time when I was repairing my arrows, several creatures(?) I dont know if its ok to call them that, but the bubble-like Fairies are constantly hovering about the crystal.

Im used to it by now.

Weell, its not like theyre coming to get in the way while Im crafting, or when Im in combat or doing repairs

Since theyre innocently coming just to play, Ill let them without worrying too much about it.

Why Im letting this happen is probably an issue I should be concerned about, but there no one I can discuss it with.

The people who Fail are probably a pretty small portion; even now I havent heard of another case.

Theres no point listening to the opinions of people who have safely contracted with Fairies.

What I do know is, if you look closely at the inside of the bubbles, its just a little bit but theres some color.

The colors are red, blue, yellow, and green; its unmistakably 4 of the elements.

I havent seen white or black yet within these bubble-like Fairies.

While watching the Fairies continue to play, having a strange feeling while thinking that its bad to have so much I dont understand, I logged out.
