Chapter 52.1. How To Build Mob Forces
The next night.
“Papa, Mama, good night!”
Onemu greets his parents, who are relaxing in the living room. They smile and say good night. That alone made me somewhat happy. I had always dreamed of a family that would greet me back.
“Oh, good night.”
“Hey, Mii-chan? Do you know how much dog hair is on your pajamas lately?”
My mom has a slightly mischievous look, but I don’t know.
“Maybe i-it’s the neighborhood puppy! Good night!”
It’s already 9 pm. I greeted her cheerfully and went back to my room. I got into bed and went straight to [My Room]. The last time I opened [My Room] was as a gate, so Odin, Frigg, and other party members could come and go from where I opened [My Room] last time.
When we move to [My Room], we find Grandpa still drinking wine and tapping away at his terminal. Frigg, on the other hand, was sitting on the sofa, taking out jewelry from the subspace warehouse, which he had put away, and polishing it with an enraptured look. The gesture looks like that of a skilled person. It’s to the point where one wonders if he is a jewelry craftsman.
Geri and Freki are turning into puppies, and jump into the room, wagging their tails happily. Let’s take them for a walk together next time. Waddling and petting the tummies of the puppies, who roll over and show their bellies, Miu’s adorable face breaks out in a smile of satisfaction. Dogs are so cute. Let’s erase the memory of them eating people.
“Oh, you’re here. You’re here quite late.”
“Good evening, Frigg-oneesan. I can only come to the [My Room] at night when I go to bed. My mom and dad get worried if I disappear.”
Frigg notices me and calls out to me. Grandpa ignores me. He doesn’t talk to me unless it’s necessary.
“Are you polishing jewelry?”
“Yes, I still have to polish them.”
“When it’s inside [Subspace storage] the jewelry doesn’t get dirty or deteriorate inside, you know?”
“It’s the feeling of someone who loves precious metals. I want to cherish it even if it doesn’t deteriorate.”
Shrugging her shoulders, Frigg-san said with a plausible explanation. That’s one thing, but there’s another purpose.
“I’ll write down the items in the ledger properly, so you should stop stealing, okay?”
“You should live a little more moderately, don’t you think?”
“If Frigg-oneesan hadn’t eaten the precious metals, I wouldn’t be managing items.”
“…… I don’t have a choice. I’ll return the precious metal I put in my item box by accident.”
Frigg reluctantly took the precious metals from the item box and put them in the subspace warehouse. It’s a good thing I kept a ledger, after all. This time, though, I noticed that none of the precious metals were in the subspace warehouse, even though I had put them there. She’s too greedy a goddess to steal them all.
Frigg’s status is as follows.
Frigg
Level 41

Sub: Hunter IV: ????
HP: 209
MP: 321
Strength: 117
Vitality: 165
Speed: 228

Luck: 85
Unique skills: 100% up when equipped with a gun, 100% up when equipped with a dagger, 50% up when equipped with a bow, 100% magic success rate, Hawk Transformation, Resistance to all magic except all-powerful, Prophecy (Absolute evasion next turn), Sorcery, Unlock IV, Steal IV, Hide IV, Aim IV, Sense Presence IV
Skills: Stealing Master, Gun Technique IV, Dagger Technique IV, Hunting Technique IV, Bow Technique IV, Support Magic V
A [Psychic] is one of the basic occupations. It’s a magician who specializes in support magic. People easily misunderstand the 100% increase in magic success rate, but it only doubles the original success rate. It only raises the probability from 5% to 10% in the same level range.
It’s a support magic, mixed with offensive magic, which is not as good as the real thing. Also, Frigg’s second job is unlocked even though she has not yet reached 50.
The reason for this is known. The strategy site said that the reason is that Frigg is a top-op character but not a complex job. I agree.
The reason is that she’s a beginner’s relief character for people who just bought the game. Even though the thief is weak, she has a lot of martial arts that don’t use MP and are useful in the fight against small fry. Support magic is useful in boss battles. Especially [Steal IV]. It was useless for me. I had already almost cleared the secret dungeon and was overflowing with items when sold as a dlc.
And for some reason, guns are the exclusive weapons of the [Psychic]. Guns and bows are extremely troublesome weapons because you need to make arrowheads one at a time. The specification is that you can make up to 99 at a time, but the materials are usually hard to get, so you have to make them one at a time.
A gun is, of course, a magic gun. It had an attack power independent of the character’s power, combining the power of the gun and the bullets, and if they used rare bullets, their power was powerful. The material was hard to collect, though. The money involved was too much to spend on a gun in normal battles, but it was useful in boss battles.
By the way, it is no wonder that guns are not popular. Material for a bullet for a level 20 gun costs nearly 1 million yen and 3 million yen for a level 30 gun. This is the story of a game with an alchemist’s shop. In reality, there are no alchemists’ stores. Yes, that’s why guns are not popular.
Even for self-defense, they don’t seem to make sense. People can’t defeat an opponent with a single shot. People have to shoot them with a gun to defeat them. In reality, it would be in the form of chipping away at the magic barrier. It costs more than 10 million yen for bullets to kill a level 20 monster. The gun price is about 100 times the cost of a single bullet. So the total cost would be at least 100 million yen. Yes, the country would go bankrupt if the military used them.
But there are a small number of magical weapons equipped with magic guns. The reason for this is in case of emergencies. The military can’t use guns. But they’re deployed for personal use or to protect dignitaries. Of course, I’ve seen them in novels and games. That’s my trump card.
However, ordinary people can’t use it daily. A psychic who uses it as her specialty weapon is inevitably a magic-only person. Frigg also could use daggers, so there’s no problem there.
“I guess the drawback is that you can only be active at night, young lady.”
“I mean, I can’t go out in the open. I’m 9 year old. Also, I’ll worry my mom and dad, so no.”
I continue to talk to Frigg in Mii-chan mode. I cross my hands and tell her not to reveal my face to the boss of a big organization. It’s because it would only be a cause of worry for my parents.
