Magical★Explorer-Chapter 117 - NINJA SKILLS 1

NINJA SKILLS 1

There is something important in running an RTA. Needless to say, that thing is efficiency but in other to achieve it you would need firepower, reflexes and the like. In the case that you want to be the first place in the world, another thing you would need is perseverance.

Now that I have mentioned a few, there is something else that is important.

That’s the chart.

A chart is something like a dungeon capture guide that you write down. To achieve your target time you must make the chart to maximize your efficiency and record your previous mistakes.

To achieve the target time, the RTA runners must strictly perform every task according to the chart after all. On the contrary, if you made a trash chart your time will be trash as well.

Then how should you make your chart? The easiest way would be to find the pioneers (The people who are also doing the RTA of the same game). You can watch guide videos online and there are even some that hand out their own chart as well.

You will then try it out yourself and modify it over and over until perfection then you test it out again.

If there’s no pioneer……you have to collect information on the sites and perform the research yourself.

In the case of Magiero, I was something like a pioneer myself so I have already personally done the research and the test myself. I think that did serve me well. Because I have repeated it many times over, there is a lot of information left inside my head. If I just used other people’s chart I probably won’t remember most of it by now.

Well, I made a lot of charts but one of the most essential ones would be the ninja skills chart. Since Iori can obtain most of the skills with the protagonist correction, there’s no way you would pass on getting the useful ninja skills for yourself.

And if you are going to get it anyway, it would be better to hit two birds with one stone. Of course, my chart was designed that way. That’s why I invited everyone to go with me.

After a short break, I go to the meeting place and——–

“Hey, Takioto. I thought about this since our training this morning but aren’t you the least bit tired?”

When I was thinking so, someone called out to me.

When did she get here? Sempai peeked at my face while wiping her hair to the side and said so. Although my heart is racing when I saw Sempai’s beautiful face, I feign calmness and answer her with [Yeah].

“I might be tired but well, there’s a lot of things going on so…..”

Honestly, to answer her question, I am tired. Gabby declared war on me, immediately after I got home Shion-san called me and on top of apologizing to me, Lord Benito also said [I will leave it to you]. He didn’t say what but he wants me to do something.

And….I wonder why. Why was she running and doing a mock battle with me this morning?

I take my eyes off Sempai and look at the seated Yuika. She looks at me and gives me a smile while winking at me. Such a cunning cuteness. Still cute though.

“Haaaaaaa”

“What is it, that sigh? Aren’t you happy that I’m here~~?”

Did she heard that or did she just saw my shoulders dropped? She walked over, looking unsatisfied.

“Ah-h, I’m super happy–.”

“And what is that unmotivated tone of yours? I am here you know? C’mon, be happy, HAPPY!”

I won’t deny that this person is gorgeous. However, when I remembered what happened yesterday, I can’t really say that.

“…..Why are you here?”

“Ah, that’s what you want to know huh?”

She said that with a small voice and avert her eyes.

Then she hesitatingly opens her mouth.

“U-mm, well…..you see.”

She muttered.

“Takioto, leave the matter about her to me. I already told Ludi as well.”

Listening to Sempai’s words I finally realized.

It must be about that consultation. After that meal, there are a lot of chances for her to talk with Sempai. Yuika must have gone to consult with her. And of course, Sempai readily helps her out.

Yes, such a steadfast Sempai is really the Sempai that I like.

It must be quite boorish of me if I make her speak of such a thing. I already guessed what happened so it is all the more unnecessary. Then…..I feel a smack on my back.

“Why are you smiling like that. It’s creepy you know?………..but, thank you.”

Well, let’s leave it at that. Seeing such a downhearted Yuika, there’s no way I can maintain a good mood.

“You don’t have to thank me. But make sure to give your undying gratitude to Sempai alright. Right….you came at a good time, want to come with us, Yuika?”

Hearing I said that, Sempai makes a bitter smile.

“Such gratitude would trouble me though..…..the matter still hasn’t been solved yet either.”

Sempai is so nice that I wouldn’t mind devoting myself to her though. Well, enough about that.

“Well, I will do that. But more importantly….where are you inviting me to?”

“It’s a place that can make you stronger. ‘I don’t want to lose to Iori’, don’t you think so too? and there’s that matter about Gabb-…… Gabriella too after all.”

“I don’t want to lose but……”

“Do you have other plans today?”

“I don’t but….you really are enthused about this. Even more enthused than a run of the mill playboy you know.”

“Well, you don’t have to come if you don’t want to but it will definitely be beneficial for you Yuika.”

Her face is saying [ Eeeh, what is he saying?] but this will definitely help with Yuika’s battle style so I really recommend it though.

“After all, Sempai will be there too so just this time alright?”

When I said that the one who reacted first was not Yuika but Sempai instead.

When I heard the sound of her breathing out, mine and Yuika’s gazes turn to Sempai. She is having a very gentle smile on her face.

“What’s wrong?”

Asked Yuika while she is tiling her head.

“No, I just often think like that about him too you see. There are times that Takioto was a little exaggerated after all. But”

“But……?”

“Looking at him until now. I sincerely trust him from my heart.”

Hahaha, Sempai said that and laugh. Looking at her, my chest is getting hotter. Such a word fulfilled my heart.

“I too, trust you from the bottom of my heart, Sempai.”

Ludi too, Nanami too, Nee-san too and Marino-san too.

“…..I understand. If Mizumori-sempai said so I will go with you despite my liiiiiiittle anxiety.”

Looking at us, Yuika said so.

Unfortunately, she is still looking at me suspiciously.

—

After we see Yuika off to her dorm for her preparation, we also head back. Because it is a holiday morning, there are not many people walking around the residential district.

“Sempai, thank you.”

“? what about?”

Sempai tilts her head. She isn’t feigning ignorant, She must have done it naturally. Helping Yuika is only natural for her. That’s what I thought.

“It’s about Yuika.”

“Aah, about that huh. I rather want to praise you for it though Takioto.”

Saying so, she shows me a blooming smile and hit my back.

“Me?”

“Yeah, I heard from Yuika you know. That you were very caring and let her consult with you.”

It is true that I was being as caring as much as possible but I don’t remember giving her a consultation though. I thought about forcefully solving her case though.

“I didn’t give her any consultation you know?”

“Certainly, Yuika said that she didn’t go in detail with you. But she said that you were willing to listen to her. That’s why….you know, about that.”

Sempai is smiling, she takes a deep breath with her face a little red.

“I like that part about you, Takioto.”

Honestly, I think that was really unfair. She took me by surprise.

My heart is racing so fast, it might fly out of my mouth.

“Is that so. I also like everything about you, Sempai.”

Since I can’t feign calmness anymore, I decided to go with it.

“EV, EVERYTHING! ?”

Seeing the usually dignified Sempai with her eyes swimming all over and her voice raised like this, she is super cute.

“Y, You fool. Don’t joke around like that. What are you saying.”

“But, it’s true.”

Saying so I take out the amulet I received from Sempai. As I show that to her while smiling, Sempai got redder and grabbed my clothes.

“W, why are you trying to seduce me in an isolated place like this! You are trying to gather the hate right? There’s no one here so there’s no meaning isn’t it! ?”

If it’s Sempai I am ready to do this wherever I want though. Well, let’s leave it at this today. My heart is approaching its limit too.

“Sempai, it’s a joke, a joke.”

[Ah], that weak voice leaked from Sempai.

“Wha, what. I….I see. That’s right. Don’t tease me so much alright……”

Looking at the lonely and disappointed looking Sempai,

“Well, I was joking when I said that I like you but I actually super like you though.”

I couldn’t help but saying that.

“——-! THAT’S THE SAME THING ISN’T IT!”
