Chapter 283

Defense Specialization and Evolution

Due to a desire to show the others as soon as possible, they hurried back and burst through the doors of the guild home .

Inside, Kanade was still playing a board game . Kasumi, Chrome, and Izu were surrounding Yui and Mai .

“Woah . What happened? You seem more cheerful than usual . ”

“Hmm . Welcome back . Hehe . It looks like I can expect a positive report . ”

And so Maple and Sally picked up Syrup and Oboro and thrust them out in front of the others .

As the other guild members had seen them longer than their own monsters, they noticed the difference immediately .

“Huh? What happened to them!”

“Hehehe . They evolved! They’re stronger and cuter!”

And then Maple explained the event to the other six members in detail .

“I see… Evolution, huh . But…”

“Yeah, I went to that place with the floating rocks, but there was no giant there . ”

Maple had a.s.sumed that everyone would be able to make their monsters evolve too, but it seemed like that wasn’t the case . Even Izu had not heard anything about people fighting on top of a huge tree .

“Um…Maybe it’s affected by their level and how close they are to you? After all, you two have had Syrup and Oboro for a long time…”

“That might be true . The books I read were all about how to get the most out of their power . And I think they’re talking about after their general abilities are established . ”

Perhaps it should not have been a surprise that you couldn’t make them evolve so soon after taming them .

“Well, I guess it really is because we spent so much time together then… Ehehe . ”

Maple said as she patted Syrup on the head . This was the buddy that would continue to fly around with her on the field for a long time . And so she was incredibly happy about Syrup evolving .

“Well, now that Maple and Sally’s monsters are stronger, I’m really looking forward to the next event . ”

“That’s true . The way we fight will change . So it will be a good opportunity to test things . ”

“Oh, the event! Then I’ll have to work hard so Syrup can level up!”

Just evolving would not be enough to make the most of the enhancements . From here, it was about patience and training .

“We’ve done a lot today already . What will you do, Maple?”

“I-I think I’m going to do just a little more . Maybe Syrup will learn something after gaining one level!”

And in order to do that, she had to return to the field . Maple would run from one interest to the next . And from one fun thing to the next .

During that time, management was exhausted from preparing numerous monsters and events for the seventh layer . Every area had different monsters and different evolutions . And creating all of that was a lot of work .

“How many rare monsters have been tamed?”

“Less than 20% . After all, the area is huge . And there are lots of strong monsters that aren’t rare . ”

If anything, the rare monsters that had been prepared were rather peaky in terms of features, and so some players would ignore them even after encountering them .

“Well, it looks like monsters that can buff you are the most popular . On the other hand, many magic users are taming tanks . ”

“What about the important guilds?”

“They have a bunch of rares . ”

“Haaa… Well, just being hard to find is… No, they’re choosing them because they’re a good fit . ”

Of course, they had checked a.s.sembly of Holy Swords and Ifrit’s Kingdom . And also Maple Tree .

“They are capturing monsters that are strong…and are capable . ”

“Maple and Sally even evolved theirs . In spite of there being almost no information about doing that…”

They were taking advantage of the fact that they had tamed monsters earlier than the others . And much faster than had been expected .

“Is her body made of some kind of magnet that helps her react to rare events?”

“That may be… I’m really starting to believe it . ”

Once things had settled down on the seventh layer, the next event would begin .

“What will happen during the next event?”

“As the players are monster-like, we have to send strong monsters for them to clash with . ”

They muttered as they ran a final check on the enemies . They had to prepare monsters that were fitting for the highest difficulty .

“Ah, one more thing . Maple has tentacles now . ”

“…That’s not something you add at the last moment . ”

Such was their conversation as they checked to see that the monsters were not acting in an abnormal way .
