Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu

Chapter 271



Once the battle was over, Izu went to gather the dropped items . In the meantime Mi approached Maple .

“He-hey! What was that back there!”

“Ehehe . Didn’t I tell you that I wanted to show you something too?”

“Uh, you did say that... But, there is no way that I would have known you would do something like that!”

From Mi’s point of view, she had acquired a new, incredibly high-powered method of attack . In fact, Maple hadn’t done anything that was all that different from before, it was just that it was such a departure visually, and so Mi didn’t realize it .

“I wanted to test it out on the boss . Maybe it can be my new finisher?”

“Yes, yes . Ahh, and to think that for a second I was starting to think you were underpowered . ”

“Well, you showed me Ignis, so I wanted to show you something as well . ”

Maple said and then laughed innocently . Mi couldn’t help but laugh as well .

“I’ll have to think of new anti-Maple measures by the next guild war . Both in terms of defense and offense . ”

“Hehehe . I accept your challenge! Besides, the others have become really strong too . ”

“I don’t doubt it...not now . ”

Mi glanced towards Izu . She had assumed that Maple Tree didn’t have a powerful buffer, but she knew now that that was not the case at all .

As they talked about this, Izu finished gathering the materials . And so all three of them decided to leave the dungeon .

“Where to next?”

“I need the egg of a monster bird that nests on the cliffs, an ice flower from the snowy mountains...a coral from the sea, and poison from a scorpion...and also some fur...”

She started to list all of the items . There were so many that Maple started to feel dizzy as she listened .

“That sounds really hard...what kind of item are you trying to make?”

“None of the three items have any practical use . One is a kind of mixed medicine and then there’s a sword and some clothes . ”

All of these would be very difficult to make unless your crafting abilities were very high . As Izu said, the medicine and sword were event-exclusive items, and could not be used for anything else .

“Well, I guess we have no choice but to patiently gather them . But it won’t be possible to do it in one day . ”

“I’ll help whenever you need me!”

“Yeah, you can call me as long as I have the time . Hey, why don’t we go to a place that would be much easier with Ignis around?”

“Yes, that would be great! Then...maybe the cliffs?”

“Alright . Leave it to me . ”

Mi gave Ignis the order, and it changed directions and then headed towards the cliffs .

After that, Izu would take several days to gather the rest of the materials . During that time, there was another member who was traveling around in search of his buddy . Yes, it was Chrome .

“So, that’s the next place... Phew, this is going to take a while . ”

Chrome said as he spread the map that he had acquired as an item . That being said, it wasn’t just a normal map . It was a treasure map .

This was the quest that Chrome was currently working on . He had found this map while exploring a dungeon . It was a rare drop, and at this point he had already gone to ten of the ‘X’ marks that were on the map .

He had acquired a number of treasures on the way, which were items that could be traded in . However none of them led to a monster that he could tame .

Eventually, he found himself exploring thick forests and snowy mountains that could be described as uncharted territories . And it became difficult for him to get through these areas in a single day .

“I think it should end soon...”

Chrome’s current destination was a cave by the sea . When Chrome saw that the map was directing him towards the sea, he couldn’t help but think of Maple’s arm .

“I hope it’s something that’s a little more normal... Here it is . ”

The entrance was usually covered by water, and the cave was inhabited by ravenous shark monsters . But depending on the time, the mouth of the cave was revealed .

Through his explorations, Chrome found out the right time to go, and so he decided to enter it now .

“It’s difficult to walk in here . And also...dark . Oomph!”

Chrome secured some light by attaching a lantern to his belt . Then he raised his great shield and carefully walked forward . On the way, he saw human bones in tattered clothes . The atmosphere here started to remind him of a certain rocky place that Maple had once told him about .

“I won’t be able to tame it if it’s a ghost-type monster . Oh, surely that’s not what it is?”

Chrome held his shield up . The lantern illuminated the area up ahead . And what he saw were skeletons that were armed with rusty axes and sabers . They clattered loudly as they approached .

“If we’re on a linear path, I’m not afraid of groups of enemies!”

He blocked the attacks with his shield and attacked back . There was no need to kill them with a single hit . He just needed to avoid being hit while using the narrow passage to his advantage .

“Phew... No bats have appeared yet . Is it mainly skeletons here?”

He still wasn’t sure what kind of dungeon this was . And so Chrome continued his exploration, all the while hoping to find something good .
