Chapter 153. Day Off And Skill Acquisition

Having successfully defeated Aerial Dragon and completed the mission to deliver herbs to the Lord, we were done.

When we left the Lord’s castle, it was still morning, but due to consecutive missions and overlapping with an all-nighter, everyone was accumulating fatigue.

For that reason, on that day, we decided to take a day off for the first time in a while.

We lazed around in the inn and wandered around the town as a group of three.

On that day. In addition to resting, we also engaged in skill acquisition work.

Comparing it to before our battle with Aerial Dragon, Kazane-san and I had leveled up by 2, and Yuzuki had leveled up by 3, earning skill points accordingly.

At night, the three of us lounged on the beds in the inn, engaging in conversations about this and that, all while working on acquiring our respective skills.

Additionally, all three of us have our available skill lists updated at level 31, with new skills becoming obtainable.

For example, in my case, it looked something like this:

▼ Obtainable Skills (All obtainable with 1 skill point)

● Weapon

?Spear Attack Increase (+26) (new!)

?Double Thrust

● Magic

?Stone Shower (new!)

● General

?Strength Increase (+1)

?Endurance Increase (+1)

?Agility Increase (+1)

?Magic Power Up (+1)

?HP Up (Endurance × 7) (new!)

?MP Up (Magic Power × 7) (new!)

?Presence Detection

?Item Box

?Treasure Chest Drop Rate x3

?Tame (new!)

?Heavy Equipment Penalty Nullification (new!)

Among these, there’s one particularly intriguing skill.

There’s also something like this in the new missions that appeared after defeating the Aerial Dragon:

───────────────────────

Successfully [Tame] a monster… Gain 10,000 experience points

───────────────────────

A newly obtainable skill: [Tame]. This skill doesn’t appear in Kazane-san or Yuzuki’s available skill lists, seeming to be a skill only I can obtain. Without actually acquiring the skill, all I can do is infer its effects from its name.

Even in the database from the original world,

I don’t recall any mention of a skill like this.

After much consideration, I decided to obtain both [Tame] and [Item Box], a skill I had put off acquiring for a long time.

While I’d like to acquire many other skills, and even though it contradicts the strategy of keeping 1 skill point in reserve for emergencies, there’s no other way.

Once Fuan and Yuzuki finished acquiring their skills as well, our statuses ended up looking something like this:

Since I had acquired [Item Box] on my own, I accepted several items from Kazane-san and Yuzuki and proceeded to organize them.

We laid out items for the entire party on the bed, discussed who should store what, and stored each item in our respective [Item Box].

After finishing this task, Kazane-san seemed unable to contain her curiosity and asked with an eager tone.

“So, Daichi-kun. Do you know what [Tame] is all about?”

“Ah, yes. Kind of.”

“Tell me, tell me! Can you pet them, like fluff them?”

“F-Fluff them? Well, yeah, it’s something like that.”

Upon acquiring a skill, I gradually understand its effects and how to use it.

According to my senses, [Tame] seemed to be a skill that allows you to tame specific monsters and make them your companions.

Of the monsters we’ve encountered, Killer Wasps, Death Spiders, Giant Vipers, Mutant Apes, Saber Tigers, and Vampire Bats are all tamable.

It seems to be insects or animals.

Additionally, you can only [Tame] one monster at a time.

It’s advantageous to tame stronger monsters if possible.

There are various details about the skill’s functionality.

But in any case, I’m pretty sure it’s a significant skill.

However, Kazane-san and the others seemed to be interested in something different.

“That’s not fair, Daichi-kun! Only you get to fluff them!”

“Yeah, that’s right. Senpai’s being unfair. You should let us fluff them too. Otherwise, should we cling to senpai?”

Having moved onto my bed, Yuzuki climbed over me while I was lying face down and said this.

With her straddling my back, I could feel a soft sensation.

This could be considered a cute gesture from a close sister, but my perception of Yuzuki had moved beyond that.

“Yuzuki. Unless you’re testing big brother, please refrain from sitting like that. It’s indecent.”

“If I were testing big brother, would it be okay?”

“Do you understand what that means?”

“It’s a naughty meaning, right?”

“… Yes, but you know what? While I can still be a big brother. Hurry up and get down.”

“Alright.”

I moved Yuzuki aside and then sat cross-legged on the bed, gesturing for her to come closer again.

She approached and sat on her knees on the bed in front of me.

I petted her hair and answered her question.

“So, about the earlier topic. Among the [Tame] candidates, the ones that might be fluffy are probably the Mutant Ape or Saber Tiger. But do you want to touch those types of monsters?”

“Come to think of it. They might not be the best choices. Are there any cuter ones, senpai?”

“No, there aren’t. Besides, I’d prioritize combat strength over cuteness.”

“Aww. Cuteness is important, you know.”

Saying that Wind took me by surprise and embraced me from behind.

The sweet scent and warm breath against my neck overwhelmed me, and my self-control wavered.

“Um, you two. Do you both think of me as an innocent guy? It’s difficult to restrain the wolf inside me, so if you’re not interested, please keep things reasonable.”

“Senpai is a cute wolf that wants to fluff, so it’s okay.”

“Wait, Hotaru-chan, not really. Daichi-kun, if he gets in the mood, is he a beast?”

“For real?”

“Yeah, for real.”

“But I kinda want to see senpai in that state.”

.And so, that’s how it went.

We spent the entire day resting.

After staying overnight at the inn, we resumed our activities the next day.

And on that day, the opportunity to use [Tame] presented itself.
