What Came to Mind During My Third Time in Another World Was to for Now, Get Naked. Chapter 18

The Next Morning

「Well then Chief, I’m off~!」

After pa.s.sing by Taotaou Hanten, we proceed to the north gate.

「Did your parent’s say nothing about this matter?」

「Un? Ahh, after I said 『I’m going to go steal the demon lord’s sword for a bit~』 my whole family fell off of their chairs」

「Of course! You idiot!」

As expected of me, I retorted with full force!

「But, did you know that before I started working at 『Taotaou Hanten,』I was part of the famous 『House of Banditry』?So stealing a cursed sword or two is nothing~♪」

…… So, then why did all of your family members fall off of their chairs……

「A former 『Thief』 huh… Furthermore, you’re living here in the 《Furthest Town》……. Fumu…… Tao-san, don’t you have any interest in joining the hero’s party?」

Hey.

Don’t try to add to the confusion.

「A-ah, this conversation also happened in the past but……」

「? What happened?」

「Ye~ah, somehow I stole some items from the hero? And they wouldn’t let me in their party anymore?」

「I think Tao-san should stay in Kazuha’s party.」

Hey.

Rather, you didn’t make Taotao Hanten with that money right…

「Ah-! It’s been a while since I’ve been on a journey~! It’s kinda exciting~♪」

「But, we’re heading to the『Castle of the Demon lord, the Tome of Bad Luck』 you know…….」

「It can’t be helped, right? ‘Cause Tao seems to be a China Girl fully loaded with M thoughts」

「Oh? How did you know~? To tell Kazuha the truth, did you think that I wouldn’t notice how you were staring at my b.r.e.a.s.t.s yesterday~?」

「*startle*」

「Do you……/// like them big……?///」

「Please stop Tao-san…… Kazuha might go out of control again.」

When did I go out of control!?

「Che~. You’re no fun……」

After saying that, Tao draw her dagger from her waist.

「Hee…… So is that Tao’s 『Weapon of expertise』?」

It’s a dagger with a distorted figure of some sort. There are also some small holes along its length…?

「This is a 《Knuckle Dagger,》 an unusual weapon that’s commonly found in the orient.」

Tao opened up her status window and chose 《Wind》 from the 《Magic》 list .

「Hmm? You can use magic?」

「Yes. A few enchantments」

Tao picked 《Rate Enhancement》 from the 《Wind》 category and used it on her 《Knuckle Dagger》.

「……Hee. You use enchantments in an unusual way.」

Right. I thought so.

Normally, enchantments are a type of magic that is used on humans or monsters, not weapons.

So why’d you use it on your weapon?

「If I do this, then its effect time will exponentially rise. But, unlike when enchanting the body, when it’s used on weapons if I drop my weapon the effects will wear off~」

Ah-. Is that so.

That’s why it’s shaped as a 『Knuckle Duster,』 where you have to  insert your fingers, in order to prevent it from being dropped mid battle. I se-.

「Furthermore, if I left my weapon equipped then I can freely move my fingers~. Do you know what this is called~?」

「……So, in short,  it’s 『Easy steal,』I presume.」

「Ruru-chan, correctoo~♪ While the attack speed increases as I unleash it, I can steal  equipment from my enemy, and, the effects of 《Rate Enhancement》 are exponentially prolonged. This is what you’d call three birds with one stone~♪」

Hee-. Thinking about it carefully, it’s a self-made weapon, huh.

「Ah-, by the way, what’s Tao’s 『Weakness attribute』?」

「…… What are you planning to do with a lady’s weakness?」

Not a thing!

「Well, you know, it would be easier to support a party member if you know their weaknesses, right? In connection to that, mine are 《light》 and 《darkness》」

「…… It’s like the hero’s 『weakness attribute』 right~……」

Ah, yeah. I was a 『Former hero』. My bad.

「…… Okay. My weaknesses are 《fire》 and 《earth.》In relation to that, one of my 『specialty attributes』 is 《body.》

」 「And the armor?」

「《Fire》 resistance armor.」

「Ah, then ain’t that fine.」

My specialty attributes are 《fire》 and 《shadow.》 And, their levels have been maxed out.

「Let’s head to an 『armor shop』 and buy an 《earth》 resistant armor-」

「……? …… Ah, is that so」

There is only one type of resistance that we need to put into our armor.

It’s because I use 《fire》 magic that the armor Tao is now wearing is meaningless.

‘Cause if I cast a 《fire resistance》 spell, then everything will be fine.

More than that, if we buy an 《earth》 resistant armor, then Tao’s other weakness will disappear.

This is pretty important you know.

‘Cause if you were attacked with your 『weakness attribute,』 then the damage correction will be 250%, right?

It’s like my 《two edge sword.》 It will increase my power level by 2, including the damage my magic or skills cause, and at the same time  forces one to take a heinous 5 times the amount of damage as compensation if hit.

That’s how important one’s『attribute』is in battle. Seriously.

「…… Will Kazuha not equip anything?」

「Hou? Equip what?」

「……Haa. An 『resistance added equipment,』desu」

「EEe!? Kazuha you don’t wear anything? NOT EVEN A RESISTANCE ADDED EQUIPMENT?!」

「Yeah.」

「What “yeah”……」

I don’t wanna spend that much money.

Rather, I’m strong enough that I don’t need it.

「……Out of all of us, aren’t you more of an M……」

「……Agreed.」

For some reason, the little girl and China girl are glaring at me.

Eh? Am I really that M-ish……
