354. Rule elucidation




 Eve put a stop to the minotaur that Celeste had incapacitated.

 The minotaur disappeared and the air in the dungeon returned to normal.
 One after the other, angels in cloth-heavy clothing came out.

 Eve went at them as fast as she could, taking down one of them.
 The angel was cruelly cracked in the head over the guard and dropped what looked like fruit.

 Eve picked it up.

'Fail.'
So it works.

 He chopped in reverse and took the fruit away.
 Eve's lips quirked up, a disgruntled look on her face.

'A pomegranate?'
It's a plant, isn't it?
Yeah.

 I nodded to Celeste.

'Would you like to try again?'
Yeah. I want to try more than just plants and animals.
Leave it to the rabbit.

 Eve moved quickly.

 With the ring on, she put on yet another ring, drank a potion, and checked her abilities on the Now Board.

 The tendencies change drastically.
 It was as if he was a different person with different abilities.

 Meanwhile, Celeste was also moving.
 She took a model of a cow from me and placed it at a distance.

 Some angels came by on the way, but I took them down without difficulty with just the all-range attack of the bicorn horn, which I manipulated with strings.

 Celeste was stronger after all.
 He was able to defeat about a small fry monster without a hitch, and I could leave it to him to watch.

 After a while, the Minotaur hatched again.
 It feels exactly the same as before, stopping its movement with a string-operated bicorn horn and neutralizing it.

'That's amazing Celeste,'
What?
'What you're doing is the same as before, but the movements are different. It's an improvised move.

 It seemed similar to the patterning for lapses that other adventurers were doing, but the essence of it was different.

'What are you talking about?'

 Celeste's eyes narrowed as if she was dumbfounded for some reason.

'This isn't what Lyota-san taught me.
Me?
It's what you always do.
...... I see.

 You could certainly say it's similar to what I'm doing.
 I decide on a general direction, with a solid foundation and foundation and all that, and the rest is a certain amount of improvisation.

 Yeah, it's the same thing, if you ask me.

'If you compliment me too much, you'll be bragging about it.
That would be embarrassing.
I'll give you a compliment if you don't.
There's nowhere to run.

 I would be seriously embarrassed if someone I didn't know well told me that, but that's where we are, fellow kindred spirits.
 Celeste and I had an idle chat.

 Then the air changed again.
 Sensing this, Eve, without being told by anyone, jumped at the minotaur and buried it with a single blow.
 Eve seemed to be getting used to it a lot.

 The air has returned and the original calcium.
 What started to appear was--.

"Oh my, your armor is so tight.
It's a bit of a warrior's maiden, isn't it?
Where are my weaknesses?
...... butt, maybe.
Yes?
No, I'm just saying.

 Gohon, he cheated with a deliberate cough.

 I look at the monster again.
 An angel is an angel, but this time it was an angel fully armed with metallic armor.
 It's an opponent that feels like that, so much so that I instantly get the impression that it's a warrior maiden.

 If you just look at it, it's the strongest angel I've ever seen - but it's the strongest angel I've ever seen.

'No one can stop a rabbit.

 It was no match for the fully motivated Eve.
 Eve dove straight in and smashed the entire sword guard and armor - or even the main body - with her hand sword, taking it down in a single blow.

 And then dropped.

'Stone ...... sticking.'
The magnet or it.

 I picked up the dropped object in place of the puzzled Eve.
 Three metal rods, one centimeter in diameter and ten centimeters long, and three of them.

 Each of the three bars was attached to each other, and when I pulled them apart, they stuck together again.

 They were magnets, just as I thought they would be.
 And that was the result of mineral A.

 Now that we had a rough idea of what was going on, we tested it further.
 During the breeding process, the type changes to the highest drop of whoever defeated the Minotaur.

 Me and Celeste, All S and All F, the types remain the same and the status quo.

 And when there is more than one highest one.

"Success--failure after all.

 Eve chews on a carrot and looks disgusted.

 It seems like if two of them are the same high, it's randomly chosen as one or the other.

 With the help of my two friends, we've figured out most of the rules.
