The Tutorial Is Too Hard Chapter 387 - Iddy (7)

Chapter 387 Iddy (7)

After explaining to Idaltar, I immediately tried to enter the last room.

“Wait!”

“Why?”

“Croak, are you just going like this?”

Idaltar asked as if she didn’t understand.

Then let’s just try and challenge it.

Should I put money in the pig’s mouth* and go through it?

(T/N: It’s part of a ritual where foods were arranged as an offering to the spirits. The main focus was a pig’s head and people would put money in the pig’s mouth to wish for success.)

“Croak, how about having a meal first?”

“Meal?”

“Haven’t I just been resurrected? I need a meal. Croak, Croak.”

It was a reasonable statement.

I took drinking water and jerky out of my inventory, but Idaltar refused.

Idaltar insisted that she wanted a proper “meal”.

Meals are frozen meals.

It looks like what a frog would eat in a swamp.

I thought about it for a while.

How about ignoring Idaltar’s opinion and forcibly dragging her away?

I decided to stop.

At best, she’s already coming cooperatively, so there was no need to twist the situation.

It was a waste of time.

“What’s wrong with jerky?”

“There are not enough nutrients. Croak. A person must eat vegetables and fruits as well as meat.”

I was a little surprised.

First, I was surprised that Lizardmen had the concept of balanced nutrition.

Second, I was amazed at her calling me a person.

It seems that the range of ‘person’ translated through pre-Babel knowledge skills is wider than I thought.

“Croak, I want a meal with more nutrients.”

Idaltar insisted strongly.

I refuted the claim.

“This is a comprehensive nutritional jerky.”

“Croak, where the h.e.l.l is that from?”

It’s real.

This is a jerky made to provide all the nutrients you really need.

When asked where such jerky came from, it was in the shop window of the Tutorial system.

Actually, day in and day out I have only been eating jerky, but I did not experience any problems such as lack of nutrition.

“Croak.”

As I explained the nutritional content of the jerky, Idaltar began to eat the jerky quietly, whispering.

She looked sad somehow.

“Croak, Croak.”

Idaltar chewed and stuffed the jerky in her mouth.

You don’t like beef jerky?

“Then would you like to eat this?”

Looking through my inventory, there was a whipped cream cake I bought for Kirikiri.

I took it out.

“Croak, I don’t know what it is, but I’ll try it first.”

Idaltar said so and hurriedly removed the jerky from her hand and accepted the plate.

“Croak, what is this?”

“Cake.”

“What about this?”

“Fresh cream. It’s just fruit on top.”

By the way, that’s dairy, is it okay?

Wouldn’t lizards get sick when they eat dairy products?

I was worried and asked.

“Croak, it’s okay to eat.”

Glad it was.

I thought they couldn’t eat cake because there was a lot of milk in it.

Idaltar ate the cake little by little with her fingers.

She looked happy.

It seems that what Idaltar wanted was not to replenish nutrition before the battle, but to take a little more time off like this.

“Croak, what is this bread made of?”

“Wheat flour, milk, eggs, b.u.t.ter. Something like that.”

“Croak! The bread made from wheat is so soft!”

Idaltar was amazed as she shuddered.

“It’s great. Croak, Croak.”

Watching Idaltar praise it as delicious.

I was oddly proud.

Is this the charm of a different world?

“You gave me jerky over something so delicious!”

No, what’s wrong with jerky.

I hope you will refrain from making derogatory remarks towards beef jerky.

“Croak, no matter how nutritious it was, it’s not good to eat jerky every time.”

“It’s not good, but it’s simple.”

“Then your taste may deteriorate. Croak, Croak.”

My taste is deteriorating.

Does that make sense?

It was a minor problem.

When was the last time I used my taste buds?

Perhaps the last time was when I licked the poison on the arrowheads on the third floor and said, ‘Oh, this is neurotoxin’.

I’d rather have my taste deteriorate.

All the time, it wasn’t once or twice that I was disgusted by pieces of the enemy’s flesh, and blood entering my mouth.

“Croak, in the past, I also ate a lot of jerky.”

In the past?

“Because I was expelled from the tribe and always had insufficient food to eat, I made jerky every time I succeeded in hunting and ate it. Croak.”

Suddenly, a tragic past has emerged.

It was more unexpected than that.

That was the story of the past, especially the story of hunting.

“Do you remember that time?”

“Croak, of course.”

If so, do you remember how you got into the Tutorial?

I quickly asked questions because of the excitement that I might have learned the secret of the Tutorial by accident.

“Croak, I don’t know.”

* * *

Unfortunately, I couldn’t uncover the secrets of the Tutorial through Iddy’s past.

She tried to recall the time when she came into the Tutorial, but even that was impossible.

Idaltar couldn’t remember the moment.

She said that the memory at the time was not erased, but if she tries to recall the memory in connection with the Tutorial, it seems that she cannot recall the memory regardless of the time.

It seemed to be a system constraint.

Somehow, the system limits anything about the past.

I quit in the end.

From some point, it seemed to me that Idaltar was distressed from her inability to recall.

It was such a weird tutorial.

It was like that for every single thing,

The Idaltar I’m seeing right now is the 5th floor boss.

Then, when a challenger challenges the boss room on the 5th floor, which Idaltar are they facing?

Can this Idaltar and that Idaltar be called the same Idaltar?

The settings in the past have changed, but the present is different, and the future will be changed.

What happens to Idaltar when the duration of Summon Envoy is over?

After eating, I was finally ready to enter the third room.

I touched the portal and asked Idaltar.

“Are you ready?”

“Croak.”

Idaltar nodded and giggled.

I was very fortunate in many ways.

So far, I didn’t think that Idaltar would be this cooperative.

[Would you like to move?]

“Yes.”

I entered the third room through the portal.

Unlike the monsters belatedly noticing my entry in the previous two rooms, the Dombas in the third room reacted immediately as soon as I entered.

As if they were waiting for me to come in.

[This crazy eyeless idiot!]

[Come here! Do you want to live?]

[d.a.m.n it! d.a.m.n it!]

Using the newly added vocabulary, they screamed loudly.

I could see that the atmosphere of the monsters was completely upset.

They did not see me as a mere intruder.

Their hostility roared.

I was not seen as repulsive, but as an enemy that must be captured and killed.

In the meantime, they don’t rush, but they stick to each other and keep their positions.

Now, they’re positioning themselves very properly.

It was easy to see what caused the changes the monsters showed.

Three mother bodies standing at the back.

Their eyes were s.h.i.+ning green.

“Croak, my tail is paralyzed.”

Iddy told me of the stiff area.

Her tail.

That’s really good.

Why do humans not have tails or anything like that?

“I am on both arms.”

I have both arms stiff.

“Are you okay?”

Then it’s okay.

Compared to both stiff legs, it is much better.

Although my attack power has been greatly reduced.

“Croak, Croak. Maybe this body should step out.”

Idaltar came forward, holding her spear firmly.

As I remembered, Idaltar was a prudent spearhead.

While I secured defense, she was stabbing the enemies, aiming at their gaps.

It was very tricky in the interpersonal battle, but it was questionable how she was trying to deal with a number of enemies who were organized.

The monsters have no weapons.

Probably, using the length of the spear, cut them off one by one from the end, and lead the monsters to release their position and drag them out… .

Shaa!

I don’t think so, Idaltar threw the spear.

[Excite!]

Idaltar’s large spear pierced the two narrowly cramped monsters at the same time.

The two monsters pierced by the spear shook, and even the surrounding monsters pushed by their bodies shook their postures.

And Idaltar ran towards that point.

Kaoooo!

Red light hovered in Idaltar’s eyes, and the muscles of her already huge limbs became more tight.

There was no such thing as a small Lizardman.

Ah, I found that ability too.

I was also greatly affected by that ability.

In addition to the false desire to rape me, glowing eyes were added, so it was quite frightening from the standpoint of the receiving end.

Kuang!

When Idaltar hit the floor, the floor cracked with a loud roar.

The monsters shook greatly again.

Idaltar picked up the spear skewered through the two monsters and swung it.

Every time she swung the spear, the limbs of the monsters stuck in the spear fluttered.

The monsters collapsed.

I ran forward too.

The line at the point where Iddy charged was completely destroyed.

It seemed better to focus on that point without having to go back to another place.

[Talaria’s Wings]

[Blink]

Talaria’s wings were used to protect the body and head, and then blink towards the monsters.

Now I’m much better at handling swords, and in addition to that, I mix in and use magical power.

The strength and quickness of my body have already exceeded the limits of humans, but still could not surpa.s.s the impact force using the speed of blinking.

It meant that the blinking body hit I had been using since the beginning of the 4th floor was still my special move.

[Excite!]

[Stop it! Excite.]

The monsters that hit against me screamed and rolled around.

The shock has been conveyed to me too, but I haven’t developed pain tolerance and faint tolerance for nothing.

I straightened my stance right away.

“Croak! It’s my turn again!”

Idaltar shouted and jumped back to the battle line that had collapsed from my body hitting them.

The monsters flew like a baseball struck by a baseball bat as Iddy swung the spear taller than the height of an adult man.

Fighting like Sauron from the beginning of The Lord of the Rings.

Anyway, thanks to that, a gap was created once again.

I continued digging in a straight line, alternating the gap that began with Iddy’s a.s.sault, me and proceeded forward.

I dug into the middle of the formation of the monsters.

This was enough distance to reach the mother bodies at the very back.

“My turn again! Good work, Lizard!”

“Croak! I’m not a lizard!”

What are you not?

I beat Iddy again and I ran out.

The monsters covered the shoulders of their people on either side and formed a wall.

They showed a will that aimed not to kill me, but to prevent me from reaching mother bodies behind them.

Clearly, their intelligence is increasing.

However,

[Blink]

The blink was used at a 45 degree angle toward the front ceiling.

And again while floating in the air.

[Blink]

I used blink once again at a 45 degree angle towards the front floor.

When using blink towards a floor or wall, I pay close attention to the distance.

If I made a mistake, I could hit a wall or floor at the rate of blink and pa.s.s out.

However, after constant training and practice, I achieved perfect proficiency.

I moved right in front of one of the mother bodies.

My left foot landed exactly on the ground.

I kicked with my left leg straight on the axis.

The kick hit the mother body’s chin exactly.

The mother body’s neck turned around like a top, and its head slumped over its shoulder.

One mother body died.

I felt the stiffness of my right arm relieved.

[Stop it! Crazy eyeless b.a.s.t.a.r.ds]

The monsters screamed out, but I ignored them.

[Inventory]

I held a single-edged sword in my right hand.

I swung it towards another mother body next to me.

[Stop… !]

With that said, the mother body’s head was cut vertically.

While blood was spewing out endlessly, the last mother body turned away from me and tried to run away, but it was pierced by the spear that Idaltar threw and died instantly.

With this, the three mother bodies were annihilated.

“Kao!”

Idaltar roared.

The monsters hanging from her spear seemed to have no concerns, and it was an exhilarating roar.

The monsters paused under the roar.

It was a bold cry to break even the enemy….

“Kaoooooo!”

Idaltar roared once again.

The pre-Babel knowledge is a great skill.

It does not stop at just making you understand other languages, but also lets you know the meaning of intonation and nuance, as well as the signs of gestures and facial expressions.

Thanks to it, I was able to recognize it.

“Kyaooooo!”

That was a roar with the meaning of courts.h.i.+p.

The terrified monsters laid on the floor, and in the middle of them, Idaltar, standing like a giant stone statue, slowly turned her head to me.

“Croak, won’t you?”

“I will not.”
