NINJA SKILLS 5

Will a party that has enough power to capture the 40th floor of Tsukuyomi dungeon have trouble in a boss battle in a beginner dungeon?

Of course not.

“Haa…..”

Yuika let out a sigh as she watches the boss that was guarding a hidden treasure, [Akaoni] (TLN: Red Orge) turning into magic elements.

“What’s wrong Yuika. Sighing like that.”

“I now understand that I am just a frog in the well.”

“How so?”

“Even like this, I am confident in my ability you know. I never lost to Onii-chan either.”

Saying so, she disperses the magic power in her hands.

Would it be better if I let her deal the final blow?

Nanami blocks the boss’s path of retreat with her arrow while Ludi hits it with Storm Hammer and sends it flying and finally, I draw my katana and cut it in a single stroke.

The boss disappeared, unable to do anything.

“Ahh- Mou, aren’t I the biggest burden here.”

“You think so? I don’t see it like that though. You can even use recovery magics too.”

It just happened that she doesn’t have the chance to show off her skill, she did a great job on the battles with the trash mobs too. Moreover, just by being here, she’s already a feast for my eyes. Now I want a little sister for myself too.

“You don’t have to flatter me. Do you even need healing in the first place? This time I don’t think you need any healing at all though?”

Nanami walks up and shakes her head.

“Yuika-sama, Goshujin-sama is trying to say………..It’s not like I can attack the enemy recklessly because of you, Don’t get the wrong idea here alright!”

“Why did you say it like I am a Tsundere? If she took it at face value she will misunderstand isn’t she.”

And you even added the boom to change the tone of your voice too right?

Rather, that’s the line that I want Ludi or Yuika to say to me isn’t it.

Well, if they say that for real then it might be awkward so let’s not do that…..!

“Then what is it, is Takioto-san saying that you are only after my recovery magic?”

“Can you not say it like I am only after your body…….There’s no way that’s the case right.”

“You are so cruel Takioto-san. I wouldn’t mind if you give me a vacation trip with four days three nights Suite in Trefle empire though!”

“Yuika is really true to her desires huh.”

I can’t say it to her but I think her an easy to understand person. By the way, that proposal, I think Ludi would just casually give an OK to that if I just ask her. There was an event for a vacation at a resort in the empire from the additional patches too. If there’s a chance we can go there together as well.

“It is as Nanami-san says, Takioto-san is really good at retorting aren’t you.”

“Wait, it’s Nanami’s influence huh! ?”

Nanami, why are you smugly doing a double peace pose.

“Ahh Mou, I’m kidding! KIDDING! But I am really glad that I came with you today. You really help me today….thank you. Of course, Ludivine-san, Mizumori-san, and Nanami-san too. Thank you for letting me capture this dungeon with you today.”

“You can call me Ludi. And if you want to visit the empire I can arrange it you know? Yukine-san too, please come by all means.”

“Eh, Ehhhh. I was just joking around you know ! ?”

“I will trouble you when there’s a long vacation then.”

Yuika was seriously shaking while Sempai casually replied. It seems she still has some restraint when it comes to Ludi huh.

“Of course, Otou-sama already gave me an OK as well. Ah, Kousuke. He wants to thank you properly so you come too.”

So she already decided that we have to go huh. I want to go but it would be certain that I have to meet that isn’t it……..I wonder what will happen.

As we talk, the monsters seem to have completely turned into magic stones. After I retrieved the drop items, Sempai walks over to me.

“Now, let’s move on everyone. Since we are inside a hidden passage, there must be something ahead of here.”

Saying so, Sempai looks at me.

It is as she says, the skill I want is just ahead.

“Right, let’s go.”

I said that and start walking next to Sempai.

“From Nanami’s research, we should be able to get [Throwing Mastery] skill here…..right?”

“I’m fine without honorifics.” Yuika was saying that to Nanami. My timing is a little bad huh.

“I can’t say for certain but it is the case as far mine and Goshujin-sama’s research go.”

Despite getting caught by surprise, Nanami gave the answer I was looking for.

“Throwing huh……I see. I think it really fits you Takioto. Right, I also have some experience in that, do you want to see? Also, have an acquaintance who is good at such skills, Do you want me to introduce you later?”

Who is she referring to I wonder? The student who was good at throwing skill should be…… As far as I remembered, that should be the girl in the newspaper club huh.

“Thank you, Sempai. Please schedule it at your acquaintance’s convenient.”

Well, there are a lot of things I have to do, Sempai who is living with me most of the time is one thing but that person might not have time to meet me so let’s leave it at that for now.

“I see. I will confirm with her later.”

Even so, I can’t just leave everything to Sempai. I have to do something myself too.

My throwing performance should be pretty good since I already have the seed of possibility. I still haven’t tried it out yet but I should be able to raise the performance of throwing weapons with my enchantment as well.

But there are still a lot of concerns.

In the game, throwing weapons like shuriken, throwing knives, kunai were treated as consumables items. They will be gone after you used it up. To compensate for that……..you will need money.

Visual aid
That’s one of the reasons I didn’t get throwing skill before I went into Tsukuyomi Academy dungeon. And I can make do with battle magic stone as well.

There was a special throwing weapon you can get from a dungeon that has a cheat-like ability that no matter how much you use it, it will never run out but that dungeon is still too hard for me at the moment. It would be a different story if I have president Monika and the Saint in the party in their serious state though.

Well, as reality is different from the game, I don’t think that I can use it an infinite number of times. There will be a time that I won’t be able to use it anymore and if I only have one I will only be able to throw it one at a time so I will have to carry a few with me at the very least.

However, the thing that you can throw is not just throwing weapons. This is a reality so the things that I can throw will not be limited to those inside a menu.

There’s worth in testing that out. Things like hammer seem throwable to me and I might be able to throw poison bottles as well. I don’t want to have a lot of weird things in my pocket though.

Moreover, if I can use skills with third and fourth hands, the potential will be raised even more.

It’s normal to grab and throw things with my stole. I even threw the monsters in this dungeon today.

If there’s another concern it would be that the skill isn’t suitable for long-distance battle. I can imagine an enemy evade it with ease if there is a lot of distance between us. If it is a mid-range battle then I think I will be able to compensate it will my enchant magic though.

Well, I can just rely on my party for the long-distances battle. Fortunately, Ludi and Nanami are specialized there. If she has to do it then Sempai can also fulfill that role as well.

Well, anyhow.

“Guess I will have to try it out in my training huh.”

It will only be after I’m done with Gabby though.
