“It might not be a Little Fox. Its level exceeded 400 after the fight a little while ago.”
“…Again, I’m not really surprised.”
Wilhelm sighed while glaring with scornful eyes. Even though he was surprised by the truth about Yuzuha, which had the appearance of a small animal as well as a level exceeding 400, he was way past being shocked, so he ended up feeling “Like hell such a thing could exist!”.
“So that is why you vaguely answered about being a chosen one earlier, huh?”
“Right. In my case, I was not strong since birth, though my power is higher than a chosen one. I thought such guys were rare in this world, don’t you agree? Therefore, I decided to go with being a chosen one.”
“I see. Then, if you two act together from now on, it’s only a matter of time before it comes to light.”
Wilhelm’s point was justifiable. Generally speaking, Schnee and Tsuki no Hokora were famous. So if Schnee appeared to be close to a man, certain groups of people would try to gather information.
“For that situation, there are magic skills that easily allow me to deceive others. I can earn some time if I make full use of illusion magic.”
“I don’t think the illusion magic you talk about is similar to the one I know. I would not be surprised if you transformed into a monster.”
“What kind of treatment is this…”
Shin could do nothing but smile wryly.
“If you are going to do that, then you will be a walking disaster. A guy like you could easily go out and erase a country if he felt like it in the same day. If I were the King, I would lose my mind.”
It was meaningless to try and act violently, so Wilhelm sat down as he added another point. He then urged Shin and Schnee, who were still standing and talking, to sit down while he mended Rashia’s bed sheet.
Rashia was sleeping soundly as her breathing could be heard. According to Wilhelm, when the people were told that high ranking adventurers were around, they seemed to calm down at last. Regarding Shin, he seemed convinced that there was no need to use the illusion magic skill immediately to that extent.
“Which reminds me, are any documents relating to us, High Humans, still remaining?”
He had returned empty handed when he visited the library before, but how were player matters circulated? Shin only had the unclear information that he had heard from Tiera. If he thought about it now, he wasn’t certain if it was unconsciously avoided. No one would bother with such a dark history, and they would pretend like it never even happened, naturally.
“There might be some left. Well, the things that I know of are; they have absurdly powerful-like strength and each had their own field of expertise in which they possessed an abnormal ability. They were treated like Gods in their particular field.”
“There are various legends that have been passed down among other people, right?”
Schnee chimes in.
“Uhee, this is gonna be troublesome again. Because Rokuten certainly was a former production guild first, we felt like we wouldn’t lose to others when it came to our individual fields of expertise.”
“Ha? Since you were strong at the beginning, did you waste time on craftsmanship? Like Schnee here.”
“Wilhelm, didn’t I only cook to pass the time??”
There seemed to be some kind of different history between the two people.
Even though every member of Rokuten certainly had amazing stats, the main reason they first gathered together was to be production guild.
“It’s different from that. Even if the levels are the same, humans are weaker than other races. In my case, I compensated with blacksmithing. It was really difficult to raise its level at the same time as combat skills.”
“You just ran from place to place many times when you first started adventuring, right?”
Schnee grunted “uh-huh” and nodded. When Shin first played, he was very weak compared to the present.
“These kinds of things, I guess, are not normal.”
“That’s what ‘High players’ did.”
Schnee casually said a word that only players would understand.
“It was called ‘High Human’ though.”
“Hai pu…what?”
Wilhelm could not understand the net term.
“Anyway, I made weapons to raise my level in blacksmithing. I equipped them and defeated stronger opponents to raise my level. Then I made a stronger weapon with the material from the opponents I defeated. And again, defeated another stronger enemy. It was this loop.”
