Capítulo 157: Rewards, Rewards, And The End Of The Quest (2)
Hey, Shun here!
They say that ye who loves animals would be blessed by RNGesus. Don't believe me?
Well, you really shouldn't since I just made that up. But seriously, helping people could come a long way.
✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽
(Shun's POV)
Right after the two [Great Eater of Mythical Beasts] were defeated, with 50 huge holes covering their whole body, as well as numerous burn marks, slashes, and dents on their skin, the mountain-like black organism turned into sand and all of us players received a message at the same time.
『The defeat of two [Great Eater of Mythical Beast] has been confirmed. Four [Great Eaters] remaining.』
Loud cheers erupted on the spot as all of us did some celebratory actions like jumping up and down while cheering "Waiii! Waiii!", which is what the younger girls are doing, including the usually emotionless Fenny. The older girls like Kaede-san and Rikka are hugging each other while excitedly jumping, including Miu and Hino-san.
As for the others like Satania-san, Mutsuko-san, Lucato-san, and Toutobi-san, they're mostly trying to maintain their cool even though they are also very much hyped. Satania-san is even shaking as she maintained this weird expression of smiling but not smiling.
"Are you okay Satania-san? You could join them you know? Come on! Go!" Since I was worried, I decided to take matter into my own hands and gently pushed her towards the celebrating bunch. That includes the three other girls too.
Eventually, all of us were laughing, cheering, and smiling as we talked about the previous events that transpired. Man, I think taking that request of Mikadzuchi-san had even more added benefits than I originally thought.
Looking at everyone who are happily chatting with each other, I also let out a full blown grin.
"See guys? Looks like my decision to take out these two paid off!"
If a group of normal people were to experience what we did, many would probably shout and chase me to the ends of the Earth for subjecting them to such an ordeal, but not my friends…
Before I noticed it, I was squished by everyone who wanted to do a group hug. It was of course Pochi, Tama, Tsuka, and Miu who instigated it.
"That was really fun Onii-chan! If Onee-chan was here, it would've been the most fun and perfect family adventure!" Miu said while smiling from ear to ear.
"Haha, yeah. I had so much fun as well."
"Tama too~!"
"Pochi too, nanodesu!"
"Tsuka too, Master~!"
Upon witnessing this happy atmosphere, Miu's friend, Hino-san, seems to have thought of a mischievous idea.
"Arara, you're very popular aren't you, Miu's Onii-chan? Let me join in too! Eii~!"
"What are you doing Hino-chan!? Onii-chan's mine right now! You can't butt in if it's not your turn!? You don't and won't have a turn as well, so get off!"
And so, our fun celebration became even more fun as the two best friends bantered while we watched on, amused.
✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽
It was already morning of the next day, the last day of our stay here in this location that's been specifically made for this event. Today, we're having some party, with everyone's subject being our fun battle against the raid bosses last night.
Whilst we were immersed in our conversation, talking mostly about how fun the battle against the bosses was, an announcement began to echo all throughout the whole map.
『The final results is now being calculated. No points will be added for actions from now onwards. After the calculations are done, the results will be announced. I repeat —』
"And so… and so nanodesu! Kaede-oneechan transformed with a 'WUSHAAAA—!' and blocked the attack of the big monster-sans with a 'BASHAAA—!' nanodesu!"
"Nyuu~? Master [Admin] and everyone kill them after~!"
"Un! Un! Tsuka was, slicing them, with, everyone…"
The three kids were energetically telling the whole story to Magi-san and Lyly who are very much amused by this whole situation. Behind the three is a happy looking Fenny who's hugging her blue hatchling called Phi-chan.
Meanwhile, Kaede-san who got mention a lot of times by the three is smiling in a very sheepish manner as she rubbed the back of her head.
"Hehehe~. This is so embarrassing, everyone. Was I really that cool and shiny?"
Satania-san confirmed that Kaede-san indeed looked cool last night, which she definitely was, but she also added that she was also very cool last night.
"Ah, you were. Though, you were definitely not as cool as me when I was casting my spells. Right, Frederick?"
"Auuu…" It was unknown whether Frederick really agreed or not. We can't really understand what these young animals are trying to say most of the time.
Speaking of young animals, I forgot to mention that Mutsuko-san got her own young animal companion now as well which is a little rodent, which Mutsuko-san named as Chiaki. The little critter is very fast, nimble, and it also likes to help Mutsuko-san in gathering and searching for herbs.
With how many young animals there are that's currently in our care, everyone in our group managed to get acquainted with a young animal or two. People who goes to hunt everytime rarely got the chance to interact with them though. Take for example, my little sister Miu.
"Even so, are you okay with receiving these as compensation and as your rewards?" Cloude who was just near me asked while looking at the numerous items that are on the trade window.
There are rare equipments, rare items, rare crafting items, unique goods, as well as many cursed looking items. I couldn't even begin to count how many there are.
"It's fine. These are the items that the girls want after all…"
These are, of course, not just for me. The items that I got from Cloude are mostly items that the girls wanted.
Whilst the two of us are finalizing the details of this trade, Rokuko came over to pour us some tea that she personally made. She was of course accompanied by her little shadow Fenny, as well as her new white colored shadow called Hakkou.
"Thank you, Rokuko." I said while sipping on the tea. I'm more of a coffee guy but, this isn't half bad.
"Hehe. You're welcome, Shun!"
By the way, Miu and the others were here to celebrate the subjugation of the bosses with us but, after some time, they thought that it would be a pity to waste the remaining time of the event and they went on a hunt. They left before the sun even began to rise so I think they'll be back anytime soon.
『The final results has now been calculated. Sending the results…』
When the information was transmitted, everyone's reactions to the result sent from the system by virtue of a mail were; excitement, excitement, laughter, and even more excitement. As for the non members of our Guild… Well, let's just say they are already resigned to there fates?
"Hmm… My results are…" When I checked the mail, I was surprised to know that the results was actually shared by all the members of the party.
Since we were not really that mindful of our parties, we just got back to our initial party distributions. The results were, our party, the Super Awesome Food Prowling Team 1, got the rank of number 1.
『Score (Rank 1 / 2396). Congratulations on your prize!』
Meanwhile, Base Camp Party placed 3rd while the Super Awesome Food Prowling Team 2 got the 2nd place. The main reason as to why we got so many points and ranked so high was, according to the data of points provided, due to the abundance of unique monsters we defeated, the items we created, the items we repaired, the food we made, and the thing that gave us the highest points, the number of young animals we befriended.
On the list, it says Befriended Young Beast [20,000P]. We basically befriended some… one, two, three… Basically, there's a lot of them.
I'm not really sure if the devs will even allow us to take so many of them with us when we go back to the game. I bet they wouldn't.
Anyway, with me alone, we got [60,000P] from it.
"Ooooh~… Super Awesome Food Prowling Team 1, ama-ziing~?"
"We are toootally ama-ziing nanodesu! Everyone is very very ama-ziing nodesu!"
"A-hahaha! As expected of me! [Admin] Shun once again took the top spot but this is once! Eventually, I will rule this whole game world! Right Frederick!?"
"Au!"
Whilst Satania-san is getting fired up all on her own, Rikka interjected just to try and pour cold water on her parade.
"Huhuhu, it looks like you lost to the superiority of my [Tyrant's Eye] this time, Satania-san. Ha!"
"What do you mean Rikka!? This is just this once! Once! Next time, you will surely lose to I, the Great Archdemon and the Queen of Hell!"
Since the two are being overly competitive, Kaede-san had to intervene and lower the rising tension between them.
"Mou, you two. You were getting along just fine earlier. What happened?"
These two are good friends but they're still really competitive against each other, aren't they? And as I thought of such things, another mail came.
Man, another mail? They should have sent them all at once instead of doing it like this. They're way too business-like when doing these things.
『Congratulations on winning a prize! Please choose your prize from the items listed below. The chosen item will immediately appear in your inventory.』
Whoah. They really put some thought into this, huh. This is so much better than them one sidedly deciding on what we will receive.
As I skimmed through the long list, I saw [Legendary-class Weapons(with a usage number restriction)], [Legendary-class Weapons(with a set usage time limit], [Strengthened Weapons(using magic materials)], and etc. The Armors had the same choices as the weapons.
The ones who piqued my interest the most was; [Special House Rights], [Personal Field Ownership], [Dungeon Making Rights], and the [Making Box].
"All of these sounds very great but, what do I choose?"
While I was deep in thought, considering what I should be picking amongst the wide array of selection that we have, my arms was suddenly tugged by someone. That someone is our resident Vorpal Bunny, Tsuka.
"Master, Master~. What, Tsuka choose~?"
"Hmm… Well, I think picking a magic enchanted weapon or armor would be better for you, Tsuka. The crafting and field selections isn't really good for you right now since what you needed most is stronger equips…"
"What about Tama~?"
"Pochi too, nanodesu!"
"Hey, Shun! Do you think I should take this [Dungeon Making Rights] thing!? It sounds fun!"
