Chapter 238 – Back to the Battlefield (3)
When I see Elsha acting like that because she’s embarrassed to be with me, I wonder if I should make content that says I hope we can become friends.
No, should I give it a try now?
“Elsha, would you like to come here?”
“Yes, yes? Me?”
Elsha, who heard me in Rachel’s shadow, made a very embarrassed voice. It was an added bonus that her face turned bright red.
“Now you will have to live with me, but you can’t avoid me like you are now. Now you have to get used to being with me.”
“Yeah, but…”
Is it difficult for Elsha to come to me right now?
“Elsha, take your time and come before my lord. As you said, we now have to live with you. Are you going to stay like this?”
“That’s right, Sister Elsha. We can’t continue like this.”
At Lien and Rachel’s words, Elsha slowly emerged from Rachel’s shadow as if she had no choice.
Just by looking at her expression, she feels like she’s watching a high school girl about to bungee jump.
Elsha came out of the shadows, walked towards me hesitantly, and then she gently sat down next to me. Then she put my arm into hers and leaned her head towards me.
It’s like being hugged by an old lover.
What? When Elsha, who had been unable to come out until just now because she was embarrassed, came towards me, I thought she would sit a little away, but when she actually told me to come towards me, I had no idea that she would sit right next to me.
“Elsha?”
“Why are you doing that? Jinu…”
Elsha herself speaks as if nothing is wrong, but she is quite embarrassing to me.
“There is no middle ground with this child. Whenever I tell him he’s embarrassed, when I tell him to come closer, he hugs me right away.”
“I was surprised too…”
It seems that not only I but everyone here was surprised by Elsha’s actions. Elsha’s eyes were focused on her, and she didn’t pay any attention to those gazes. She was holding my arm and smiling as if she was in a good mood.
I really can’t get a feel for it because it shows a completely different side from the characters I’ve seen so far.
If we say that there have been many characters who tried to approach me first because they basically liked me, I think it would be right to say that Elsha is not one of those people.
Basically, she may have very low self-esteem, but she doesn’t want to come close to me, but when I see her being happy when I come next to her, I feel the gap is very big.
Do you think this will disappear as we continue to live together? After we solve this world’s problems, we will all live in one house.
“Then this is my place~!”
Yuria, who was controlling Minercia, sat down next to me and put her arms around me, looking really happy.
“Hmm! Master, then what do you plan on doing with us now?”
Lien gave her an envious look for a moment, but then she quickly changed the subject. It’s good in her eyes that she wants to be in my arms right away.
“Yes, of course, we will first stop Chaos Alcatraz from touching Numeron, the dimensional gate in the north.”
This is a very natural story. If this is the case, how can I stop it now…
“First of all, I don’t think it’s possible to take down Chaos Alcatraz with all our might. I don’t think it will be easy to cause damage to it just by ourselves right now.”
Here, I am the only one who can buff everyone, and the level of strengthening everyone is much worse than that of Freya.
I think it’s a buff that can be given when you have level 95 equipment, but that won’t even provide proper damage to Chaos Alcatraz, the level 110 raid boss.
Moreover, we have to attack Chaos Alcatraz using the 〈 space distortion 〉 that I obtained this time, but in the current state where it is not able to do proper damage, there is no need to create a situation in which Chaos Alcatraz can respond by showing 〈 space distortion 〉 in advance.
I said that the skills that exist in the game system shown so far, such as 〈 Time Stop 〉 and 〈 Dash 〉, are skills that do not exist where my character lives, so to put it conversely, there is a high possibility that Chaos Alcatraz does not know anything about 〈 Space Distortion 〉. .
This trump card can cause more damage if used at the moment when you can attack Chaos Alcatraz with all your might.
“So, for now, we will focus on taking as much time as possible. After taking the time, after hearing Gaia’s words, I quickly use 〈 Return 〉 and bring back Ellie, Reniya, and Freya who are still in Brighton Castle. That’s the basic premise.”
“Then the question is how to kill time. What do you plan to do, master?”
How do you do it?
“I’m going to keep my attacks to a minimum anyway, and you’ll remember that only the 10th attack will be a proper attack. Elsha, you heard that too, right?”
Elsha was startled by the sound of her calling, but she quickly nodded her head.
“Obviously it was quite tricky. I had no idea it had such deceptive capabilities.”
“That goes for me as well. How did you make something like that?”
I went to the world I lived in and looked up past posts in the community, and surprisingly, there wasn’t much criticism about Chaos Alcatraz when it was released.
That’s because a system called 〈Space Distortion〉 was given to users from the beginning, but we, who didn’t even know that, attacked Chaos Alcatraz recklessly, so it’s an ability that we don’t have a clue about.
However, that doesn’t mean there is no swearing at all. I often saw posts telling the guy who came up with this idea to resign as director and get the hell out of there.
〈 It seems like it was a setting that was put in because of one space distortion 〉 thing, but for those of us who dealt with it, it was like a disaster.
However, this does not mean that I have an advantage because I can use 〈 space distortion 〉.
In the game, all users participating in the raid take turns using 〈Space Distortion〉 to inflict damage, but among us, I am the only one who can use 〈Space Distortion〉.
My ability to use 〈Space Distortion〉 at the correct timing will determine our win rate.
“〈Space Distortion〉 that we saw this time is an important card that can help us defeat Chaos Alcatraz, so we will not use it right away after meeting him. We will use it at a certain time after joining all three remaining at Brighton Castle, Ellie, Rhenia, and Freya. It’s a thought.”
“Then how do you plan to withstand Chaos Alcatraz? As you may remember, it wasn’t easy for us to defend it.”
Those who had fought against Chaos Alcatraz nodded at Lien’s words, as if recalling that day’s battle in their minds. It’s terrible even when I think about it.
“First, I’m going to tell you about Chaos Alcatraz’s attack pattern. You won’t be able to understand everything just by listening, but please listen first.”
I explained the Chaos Alcatraz pattern to everyone step by step.
Everyone who heard my explanation believed what I said without any doubts. Considering my relationship with everyone, I think it’s natural.
Of course, I explained the pattern, how to break it, how to easily avoid it, and what the precursor phenomenon is before an attack.
“That’s all I know. He’ll probably move within the range I know, so I’ll give him instructions one by one during the battle, so everyone trust me and move.”
I thought it would probably be impossible for me to understand the entire explanation just by listening, so I plan to explain to everyone in battle how to avoid the patterns and what kind of attacks will come.
Since it would be difficult for me to directly inflict damage in battle anyway, it would be more appropriate to command.
“But it looks like you really went to the original world and did a lot of research about Chaos Alcatraz. I didn’t expect you would come back with such detailed information.”
“It certainly might be better to deal with Chaos Alcatraz than last time.”
Yuria and Rachel muttered, recalling what I said in their heads.
“Focus on avoiding his attacks as much as possible, and we will keep our attacks to a minimum. I will protect everyone with my best defense skills as well as avoiding them.”
What I can do besides commanding is to use my defense skills to block attacks as much as possible before they reach everyone.
So we boarded Minercia and flew north as fast as possible.
I talked to Gaia along the way and checked the location of Chaos Alcatraz and when the army it created would arrive.
It would have been nice to be able to travel a distance in an instant, but unfortunately, it took several days for us to fly, so should I say that I am glad?
We were able to reach the north before Chaos Alcatraz.
And the moment we arrived, we heard information that the Chaos Alcatraz army had arrived at Brighton Castle.
