Chapter 43

(Thank you for reading at bayabuscotranslation.com)

I had just finished my appraisal.

“Oops, this has gotten long. Let’s get the armor appraisal done quickly and leave the room. We can decide on the party name later.” (Kouta)

“Yeah.” (Mira)

I couldn’t help but agree. At that time, I didn’t realize that the moat was filling up quickly.

Well, even if I had, I think I would have made the same decision.

“So, is there anyone who wants to appraise?” (Kouta)

“Yes!” (Mira)

“Is there anyone other than you?” (Kouta)

What’s with this lady answering so naturally? There’s no way we’d show the Onee-san at the guild counter something that could become our equipment. Even Mira was surprised, you know?

“Then, I’ll do it.” (Sofia)

Sofia said that, which was unusual for her, so I handed her the appraisal item. I was a little surprised, as I had expected Emilia or Mira to say something.

“Appraisal.” (Sofia)

So, that’s what she said.

“Umm.” (Sofia)

“Sofia, take note of this and let’s talk after we leave the room.” (Kouta)

That was after we’d already talked about whether or not the skills had come out. Since Onee-san had gone to the trouble of asserting her existence, we were careful not to leak any information.

I see, that’s why Onee-san replied back there. I appreciate her kind consideration.

I was grateful for this and nodded.

As usual, it’s embarrassing to say thank you to someone face to face.

Onee-san nodded, so I guessed that meant it was fine.

With the appraisal finished, we moved to the guild’s waiting area and decided to hear the results from Sofia. The guild’s waiting area is like a food court, perfect for grabbing a light snack. Today being a Saturday, there were quite a few young people there, and it was hard to find a seat.

Until now, these women would have been hit on by a barrage of men, but with me, a man, carrying a full set of armor, hardly anyone would approach them. Now, I said armor, but what we were carrying was heavy infantry or heavy cavalry, a very sturdy type of armor.

Do you know what I mean by Tormekian soldiers? Yes, they were the ones who were about to be run over by a tank. That’s what was placed right in front of us.

“Sofia, I want to know the results of the appraisal. I don’t think anyone will be able to hear us with all this noise, but let’s speak as quietly as possible just in case.” (Kouta)

“I get it.” (Sofia)

“Got it.” (Mira)

I understand too, of course. However, I think the way people looked at me has gotten even worse. I hope there’s no magic that can kill you with a curse or something. If there was, I’d probably be heading straight for the other side.

 

“Blue Armor”

DEF 12

MDEF 8

Weight 10kg

Special effect: When all parts are worn at the same time, DEF +6, MDEF +6.

 

That was what it said. I almost let out a cry.

It is because, if you think about it logically, it is an incredible performance. The equipment worn by members of the Self-Defense Forces also weighs nearly 20kg and has a DEF of 10. But this weight is half that and raises DEF to 18. I don’t know what else to call it other than incredible.

What’s more, even though it’s armor, it’s made of only six parts. Arms, legs, head, and torso. One arm is DEF1, one leg is DEF1, the head is DEF2, and the torso is DEF6. MDEF is 3 for the torso and 1 for the rest. It’s a great item that can be used separately.

“I don’t want to sell it if possible. But in that case, the other people’s share will be an issue! But still, I want to use this for ourselves! If we have this…” (Mira)

“Yeah, I’m in favor. Now we just need to decide whether Emilia or Sofia will wear it, or whether we should wear them separately to ensure their safety, right?” (Kouta)

I immediately jumped at Mira’s opinion.

Even if I’m at level, my ability scores are completely flat, so I don’t want to wear something like this.

“Kouta…” (Mira)

Mira, you don’t have to be happy with that tearful face… It’s making my heart beat faster, so please don’t look at me with that face. Mira seemed to have thought that I would be against it. I am also against it.

If I were the law, making a beautiful woman wear such a helmet would be a serious crime. But it is to protect a human life. Especially a beautiful woman’s life, so I will swallow my tears and accept it. By the way, Mira is cute, so please keep it out of my league.

“Can I wear this?” (Sofia)

Mira and I were both confused by Sofia’s words. But her decision seemed firm.

The helmet is a hindrance to both Sofia and Emilia! But in terms of avoiding being hit on, it’s most effective for Sofia to wear it. No matter how much I wail and say that she doesn’t understand dungeons, it can’t be helped. It has high defensive power and is important equipment that protects the head, so it can’t be removed in real life…! It’s a hindrance, right? It’s unnecessary, right?

Game development companies really do a good job in this regard. When you dig deep into it like this, you start to realize some facts.
