Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha

# 133

133. Exciting (2)

“Really, I can’t dry it.”

match!

Jenna hit me on the back.

“Why are you hitting me? It hurts.”

“You should have said something before leaving. You were surprised.”

“I told you.”

“Is that what you meant? Jenna, take cover. And dive into the monster-infested sea. I thought my heart was going to drop.”

Jenna finished wrapping the bandage on her palm and sprayed the potion.

A sharp pain passed through my wrist. I moved my left arm. The pain is bearable. There was no significant hindrance to movement.

‘Is it somehow?’

I looked around.

The corpses of sharks and Merman are floating on the sea.

The sea was stained red with the blood they shed.

The tactic was simple.

Using the shark’s ability to react to the smell of blood, it makes its palms bleed and lures them away from the ship. The shark was dealt with with daggers and Jenna’s covering fire. Merman is in charge of the rest of the party.

It was improvised, but it seems to have worked well.

I put the glove on my left hand and stood up.

After measuring the direction of the compass, I grabbed the oar.

“Let’s go. We don’t have time.”

“I hurt my hand, can I row?”

“It’s a scratch. It’s nothing.”

Iolka let out a small sigh.

He didn’t do anything in this battle.

It has telekinesis, but it wasn’t strong enough to use as a main force.

“…sister.”

Jenna looked at Iolka with a bitter expression.

Iolka bowed her head and crouched in the corner of the boat.

“It’s not a place I want to stay for a long time.”

Belquist rowed on the right.

I also moved my hand at the right time.

So the boat started to go through the sea with the power of wind and oars.

There are hardly any waves.

The water is calm and the wind direction is also consistent with the destination.

It must have been about two hours.

A column of water rose, and a black figure appeared.

[Merman Lv. 32]

He is about 2m tall.

It was a bizarre appearance that looked like a mixture of a fish and a human.

Water was dripping from the blue scales.

“Kiaaa!”

The guy on the boat roared and drool.

puck!

“Kek!”

I hit his face and set the half-crushed paddle on the post.

After finishing off the fallen Merman with a dagger, he threw it into the sea.

“Know these guys because they have a habit of getting on board. It will help a lot if you memorize them.”

“Well, be bold.”

“Let’s shift now.”

Nerissa and Jenna took the paddle.

At a slightly slower pace, the ship continued its voyage.

There was no crisis whatsoever.

Occasionally, sharks roam under the water and Merman runs rampant.

It was a sub-stage anyway. If he was conscious, there was almost no chance of him dying.

‘The problem is when the mission ends.’

Following the compass, the ship is moving steadily.

What I needed to know was whether the environment was the same as now or if there was a change in the next mission.

If the 32nd floor continues as it is now…

‘I can’t help it.’

I saw Iolka.

It was said that they rowed with telekinetic power, but it was not easy, so in the end, they were left alone.

“Why am I like this…”

“Wizard, take this opportunity to learn other attribute magic, though?”

“Do you think it’s easier said than done? The basic concept is completely different.”

Iolka raised her knees.

Then, when the long-term mission information came up and the night and day were repeated once.

[Stage cleared!]

[‘Han(★★★)’ ‘Jenna(★★★)’ level up!]

[Reward – 150000G tropical fruit X 3 Mermaid scales (lower) X 5]

[MVP – ‘Han(★★)’ ★★)’]

On a boat in the sea, we cleared the mission.

confirmed with this.

The 32nd floor was the same field.

“This mission is also very intrusive. It’s narrow, my arms hurt, and it’s boring.”

Jenna muttered as if she was getting tired of it and left the space-time gap.

Belquist followed, and Nerissa also looked at Iolka for a moment before going out into the square.

“…hey.”

“why?”

It was the moment when Iolka’s words continued.

Amkena moved the control panel.

[Create a party.]

[Drag and drop heroes!]

[‘Iolka (★★★)’ has been excluded from ‘Party 1’!]

[‘Katio (★★★★)’ is ‘Party 1’ ‘!]

“I, use the wind magic once…”

[Surprise!]

Issel appeared while spinning the triple axel.

[Iolka Libel Strashur! You are excluded from 1 party from today. Get some rest until Master calls!]

Finishing her words, Issel winked and disappeared with the light.

I laughed out loud.

“It seems so.”

“You want a good rest?”

“Yes, it’s vacation.”

“How long?”

The field concept tends to be maintained in units of 5 or 10 floors.

I said with a sigh.

“The 35th or the 40th floor.”

“It’s too long! If you rest that long, everything will rust!”

“Is there anything special? The Master ordered it. There is no reason to refuse.”

If there was a little reason, I could have calmed down, but looking at the process on the 31st floor, I couldn’t do anything about it either.

Iolka’s eyes trembled as if an earthquake had struck.

“Why are you reacting like that? You sang a song that you usually want to rest.”

“But…”

“Don’t worry.

“Ugh, ugh!”

Iolka blushed and cried out.

“Master! You treat me as a stumbling block! Yes, it’s useless. It won’t be enough if you learn other attributes. Just wait!”

Iolka stepped out of the space-time gap with angry steps.

‘Is it a different attribute?’

It won’t be easy.

Elementalists usually only have talent in one attribute.

‘I’ll have to ask them to make something delicious.’

Unfortunately, Iolka is out of this mission.

I smiled bitterly and left.

evening the next day.

[1st party gather!]

As expected, Amkenna called the 1st party to attack the 32nd floor.

If there is one difference.

“Ask me to go with you? I’m still an airship…”

“Stop talking nonsense and come.”

“Hey, wait! Ugh!”

I dragged Katio down to the first floor.

Then, when I put it in the space-time gap, the door closed.

“Iolka-sister… doesn’t exist.”

Jenna twisted her red hair with her hand.

“I’m not coming this time. I told you.”

“Umm…”

Before coming out, I saw him buried in a pile of books in the magic hall.

I said to Katio, who was standing there dumbfounded.

“From now on, you will be active with us as a temporary 1st party. Please know.”

“What, what? Why are you saying that now!”

“You’ve been sleeping all day long.”

“It’s because I worked overtime for maintenance!”

“Anyway, that’s how it was. I’m sorry I didn’t explain.”

“Sah, it doesn’t matter.”

Katio looked at the members of the first party, including me, with unfamiliar eyes.

Belquist narrowed his eyes.

“What are you looking at?”

“…nothing.”

[The current number of challenging floors in the main dungeon is 32.]

[The door will open in 10 seconds. Get ready!]

[Recording the mission. Your play history will be preserved.]

A message popped up informing me of the start of the mission.

“Would you be back soon?”

Just before the light enveloped her body, Jenna muttered.

“It will.”

Nerissa smiled lightly and replied.

The front of my eyes has changed.

[Floor 32.]

[Mission Type – Search]

[Objective – Search designated area!]

A salty wind brushed my cheek.

sea and ship. It was a mission that continued from the end of the 31st floor.

“ocean?”

Katio tilted his head.

I explained the basic mission outline to Katio.

That you can move the ship in the direction of the compass needle. That there is a monster attack along the way.

“You can just follow the compass, right?”

“Put the sails and row the oars…”

“Why are you doing that? It bothers me.”

Katio said as if he was pathetic and spread his hands.

The thread of magical power was woven into a spiral at the back of the ship.

Boaaaaang!

The boat started to shoot out like a motor boat.

Belquist said while balancing on the rocking boat.

“How did you do it? Wind magic?”

“No, I made a simple propulsion device with magic power.”

A strong wind hit my cheek.

2 to 30 km/h can easily exceed the speed.

The ship proceeded spraying foam backwards.

‘It’s a headwind now.’

The wind is blowing against the direction of travel.

But the ship moved forward without the slightest delay.

Compared to the 31st floor, it was three or four times faster.

“Looks like you’ve been struggling all this time.”

Belquist said in a self-deprecating voice.

“Can’t you throw away this oar?”

“…Put it in the corner.”

In an instant, the oars became a piece of baggage.

After a while.

[Man-eating Shark Lv. 18] X 9

A black shadow followed the ship.

I took off my gloves. I am the only member who can still swim.

“I’ll go the same way this time.”

“After luring in, I’ll cover you, right?”

“okay.”

I decided to bet the blood inside.

Grabbing my dagger, I approached the outside of the ship.

“Wait a minute.”

Katio put his right hand into the sea.

Paperweight!

Fluffy.

Nine sharks surfaced with their bellies exposed.

Jenna opened her eyes wide.

“What, what is it?”

“I sent out a magnetic field and stunned it. Sharks have organs that are sensitive to electricity.”

Katio replied.

Belquist stayed still and then spoke to me.

“What have you been doing without writing?”

Katio waved his hand and the boat started again.

I did ask what was possible.

I even tried taking him to battle.

However, it seems that there were so many things that I couldn’t grasp all of them.

‘Is he also a magician?’

Although each magician has a strong personality. Among them, this guy seemed to be able to do quite a lot.

I started an interview with Katio.

“You can manipulate surface tension.”

Katio stepped out of the boat without hesitation.

When my feet touched the surface of the water, a circular circle spread out.

“Like this.”

Katio was standing on the water.

“I can write for you too. There are a few conditions.”

It seems to be able to act on the surface of the water when receiving auxiliary magic.

While casting, other magic cannot be used, but the duration is close to infinite. If you pay attention to the big impact, it will not be released even with rough movements. It means that it can work like a flat land.

“If this wizard were on the 30th floor… A lot must have changed.”

Nerissa swallowed the silence.

‘It’s not just the water.’

You could run straight up a 90-degree cliff, and

you wouldn’t have to risk climbing on the statue’s arm

. Very useful. Please take good care of me in the future.”

Belquist said.

“Even my sister can do this much. He said he would learn quickly.”

“I can’t become an elementalist. Magical properties are different.”

Katio said firmly.

Jenna got sullen and lowered her head

.

The ship continued on its way,

no need to row or pay attention.

When the enemy approached, Katio alerted me before the arrival message popped up.

“Doesn’t that make the mission ten times easier?

” It’s like that because it’s right.”

Quite a few guys increase the speed of the ship to evade them, and if that doesn’t work, they deal with it with auxiliary magic.

Anyway, the difficulty of this mission came from the environment.

When the conditions were met, the battle took less than 5 minutes.

So, one day Day and night turned.

“…”

The edge of the horizon.

A faint brown dot was floating.

Nerissa narrowed her brows.

“It appears to be a large sailboat.”

She looked at the compass,

the red needle pointing in the direction of the ship.

‘Though that’s the only one.’

Looking back, Katio nodded and waved his hand.

The speed of cutting through the water increased even more.

The dots gradually expanded.

It was a large sailboat made of wood.

There were several huge sails on the mast.

The difference in height alone was more than 10m.

The boat we were on slid along the sea and caught up behind us.

I looked up and

saw someone on the railing looking at the sea with a distraught expression on his face.

A

sigh leaked from his mouth.

“What…!”

“How have you been?”

”

What are you doing there!”

“It’s this guy again.”

I smiled bitterly.
