Chapter 133: “Excuse me, I will call my friend”
The middle of the event was tough as I was desperately trying to catch up, so I couldn’t really be active. However, as we entered the late stage, we were finally able to become a stable party of three people, and Wayne was able to earn a decent amount of experience points.
Due to the proposal from MentaList, we prioritized earning experience points over funds, so I wasn’t really catching up to Gil or MentaList, but I should have grown enough to fight alongside them.
Currently we are earning money in the country called Wells, which is where Gil and MentaList were based previously. This country, like Hiers, is predominantly human, making it easy for our party of all humans to operate.
Now we are in the lounge of an inn in the city of Carnemonte, just three men enjoying tea.
Carnemonte is a relatively large city even in Wells, but it’s player-friendly due to the proximity of the monster zone. Despite being on the frontier, the city seems to have continued expanding, with multiple layers of outer walls, and the city is situated between these walls. We are in an inn in the outermost shell of the city.
Maintenance is over, so each of us has logged in and come out of our rooms.
“Hey Wayne, your equipment is getting pretty bad. Is that made of iron and monster skin or something? Somehow you’re still managing to keep up with that. Your player strength must have improved a lot, not just your skills and abilities.”
“Yeah, that’s right. It seems like I hardly get hit these days. The sword is just a raw blade, so the damage isn’t that great, but I cover for my attacks with magic, so if I could improve the sword, the DPS I deal would be more stable.”
“No, your equipment is shabby because Menta said to leave it for later. Honestly, looking like that, if you were active in another party, the members would be poached by others one after another.”
