“Oh my! My puppies!”
The old lady NPC who had been waiting at the dungeon entrance saw the group and ran over to them in a hurry.
After easily defeating the Giant Ratman, Labo and Oasis safely escorted the NPCs back to the entrance.
The grandmother NPC, who was hugging her grandchildren, kept bowing.
“Thank you so much! Thank you so much!”
“Hehe. What, kid? With this much.”
Oasis was proud for no reason.
Labo snickered from behind.
“You’ve worked hard too, young lady! I was so worried!”
Grandma also thanked Elaine. Elaine waved her hand with a haggard look.
“No, I just got involved without knowing my place and ended up suffering… … .”
Elaine looked back at Labo and Oasis.
“It’s all thanks to the adventurers.”
Then he bowed deeply and showed off his figure.
“Thank you so much. Thanks to you, I was able to save the children and I was able to live.”
Oasis also quickly waved it off.
“It’s great that you’re stepping up to help those in need! Don’t blame yourself, Elaine!”
“Thank you. However, I learned that blind goodwill without ability can cause even greater damage.”
Elaine smiled broadly and bowed again.
“I’ll be careful next time. Okay.”
And Elaine left the party and went out to the dungeon entrance first.
Oasis, who had been watching his back from afar, tilted his head.
“Is that NPC named Elaine an important character in the story?”
“… … You said not to spoil it? Tell me?”
“Well, you can tell me this much. It’s just my opinion, but I think he’s a really important character.”
Labo shrugged.
“He’s one of the main characters in the scenario. You’re going to get sick of him from now on.”
“Hehe, as expected… … .”
“One funny thing is that new users can tell that he’s an important character as soon as they meet him.”
“Yes? How?”
Oasis tilted his head. Was there something that could be recognized as soon as you met him?
Labo snorted, “Huh?”
“When creating the main NPCs, we brought in several actors and did motion capture, and recorded their faces and voices. There was a lot of acting that went into cutscenes, so we did that.”
“Hoo… … .”
“But as this game became a hit, the actors who played the main NPCs also became famous, and the actress who played Elaine also became popular… … She’s become a very hot actress now. She’s appeared in many movies and filmed many commercials.”
Labo let out a small sigh.
“Because he became famous enough that everyone knew his face, new users who started playing the game would think, ‘Huh? That’s a famous actor? That’s an important character!’ just by looking at the character’s face.”
“Ah, ahh… … .”
“Well… … Let’s leave that kind of backstory aside.”
Leaving behind the grandmother and children who were still grateful, Labo and Oasis also escaped the dungeon.
“Anyway, the first scenario quest is finished!”
“Wow~!”
Dungeon: Cleared the Rat’s Den!
Scenario Quest: Cleared the Great Adventure’s Beginning is Simple!
As I exited the dungeon through the manhole cover, the dungeon clear and quest completion message appeared at the same time.
Tiring!
“uh?”
Oasis, surprised by the level-up sound that followed, checked the status window.
Level 71.
The level had gone up.
“I leveled up! I still have some experience points left… … ?”
“1.5x bonus, and the scenario quest rewards a lot of experience points.”
Labodo also felt good about the valuable experience.
Likewise, Labo, who had distributed bonus stats in the status window that had leveled up, raised his arms vigorously.
“Okay, let’s break them all at this pace!”
“yes!”
Labo and Oasis quickly moved to the next quest point.
* * *
The scenario quests in the beginning of Season 1 are mainly about helping villagers in trouble.
Snow White’s guards and military were chronically undermanned, and most of them had been mobilized to fight off recent monster attacks.
There was not enough capacity to resolve the large and small incidents occurring throughout the city.
In this situation, the player, a new adventurer, takes on the task of solving several incidents and chasing down the mastermind behind them.
And the NPC who works with the player to solve cases and maintain peace in the city is Elaine.
“Why is Elaine so anxious about not being able to help people?”
While I was working on the third quest, Oasis tilted his head.
This time, the quest was to clean up a group of undead that suddenly appeared in the cemetery.
Oasis whined for a moment because it wasn’t a bright and flashy dungeon, and then focused on the battle as waves of undead surged forward.

Elaine, who accompanied us without fail, was shooting an arrow on the hill.
It was better than nothing, but the damage was low.
“He seems to be set up as a completely inexperienced rookie adventurer… … but why does he act so altruistically? Is there some reason for it?”
Eight! Eight! Oasis asked while shouting and smashing the skeletons’ heads.
Labo looked at the oasis with fat eyes.
“No, you told me not to spoil it, but you keep asking. Should I just recite it all?”
“I’m just wondering! Eww! Don’t tell me!”
Oasis quickly covered his ears and jumped back.
Then, the skeleton that had been waiting behind grabbed Oasis and hugged him.
“Whoaaaaaaaaaaa?! I’m fired!”
An oasis of terror and dizziness.
“Ugh… … .”
Labo approached and swung his sword, blowing the skeleton away with one blow.
“Elaine’s identity is also a key part of the Season 1 story, so it will be revealed soon.”
The oasis that had taken refuge from the crumbling pile of bones was delighted.
“Oh, so that’s what it is!”
While we were having that conversation, the wave of undead ended.
“Huh? Is this the end?”
Oasis looked around. Labo shook his head slightly.
“Wouldn’t that be too bland?”
“everyone!”
Elaine shouted urgently at that moment.
“Watch out! There’s something here!”
A cutscene event followed.
A necromancer wearing a black robe appeared on the hill on the other side of the graveyard.
The necromancer looked at Labo and his party and laughed evilly.
“Hehehe. Those foolish adventurers… … .”
The necromancer pulled out a skull-headed staff and thrust it forward.
“You dare to interfere with our plans, we will punish you with heavenly punishment!”
Oasis, who had been silently watching the event, whispered softly.
“That’s a very typical line… … .”
“It’s a bit weird to give cool lines to a one-time villain. Writing a script is hard work.”
It also appears that Labo laid out the entire scenario framework for Wings Online.
When producing Season 1, they couldn’t find a suitable screenwriter, so most of the lines and scripts were written by Labo.
Starting with Season 2, we were able to hire several scenario writers, so only then were we able to move on to a general review that only covers the big picture of the scenario.
So the scenario for Season 1 was almost entirely Labo’s work.
Labo had complicated feelings as he watched the necromancer recite lines according to the script he had written.
‘… … Should I have written it a little more stylishly? I guess I did a bit of a sloppy job with the initial villain.’
Looking back at the story from the beginning like this, there were more than a few parts that I wanted to fix.
But what can I do now? I am no longer a developer and there is no way to fix it.
Above all, anyway… … everything will be destroyed.
“… … .”
The days when he stayed up all night writing the script suddenly crossed Labo’s mind.
To reduce everything that was worked so hard to create to ashes, to bring about a bad ending, I’m watching it from the beginning, developing the characters one by one.
‘How contradictory.’
He knew very well that he was a bundle of contradictions. A bitter smile appeared on Labo’s lips inside the helmet.
I love this game.
‘That’s why… …I’m going to burn it all down.’
Labo’s determination was unwavering.
“Lie down and face death! Summon: Abomination!”
As the necromancer used his summoning skill along with his typical dialogue, a huge summoning circle formed behind him.
Then, a huge monster came out of the summoning circle, staggering forward.
It was a swarm of zombies, dozens of zombies gathered together to form a huge body.
The terrified Oasis screamed.
“Jingle- Huh!”
“That one was also purified after going through some censorship. It originally had a truly horrible appearance.”
Originally a flesh-filled monster that looked like something out of a horror game, it was beaten by the judge and transformed into a horde of zombies.
“It looks scary enough even now?!”
“To that extent, she’s cuter than before. Really. Look, doesn’t she have her own cute side?”
Kuoooooo!
Abomination roared cutely(?). Then, it came charging towards me, dragging its heavy body.
Ping! Ping!
Elaine shot the arrow desperately, but it didn’t even make a scratch.
“Be careful, everyone!”
Elaine continued to protest, shouting.
Oasis stomped his feet as he saw the Abomination running towards him.
“Oh, what should I do, Master! I’m really scared! Please hurry up and get rid of me!”
“No, you have to catch him.”
“yes?!”
Labo giggled at Oasis, whose eyes widened in surprise.
“Oasis, what is the weakness of the undead?”
“Uh… … So, it’s divine magic.”
Oasis quickly searched for compatibility and answered. Labo nodded.
“Most of the healing priest’s magic?”
“… … The category is sacred magic.”
Labo stretched out his hand forward.
“Okay, now you get it, Oasis? Give that guy a lot of heel.”
“… … Really? Heal? Does it really work?”
Labo nodded. Oasis used the skill with a half-hearted attitude.
“Call of Sanctuary!”
A huge magic circle was drawn on the floor and white light rose up. It was the large-scale area recovery magic Call of Sanctuary.
Kuoooooooo?!
The HP of the Abomination that stepped on the magic circle dropped sharply.
The panicked Abomination rolled to the side with a dull scream.
“… … .”
It was the first time for Oasis to see his skill so effectively reduce the boss’ HP.
Labo tapped Oasis’ shoulder as he opened his mouth in surprise.
“Undead are one of the few monsters that a healing priest can use as a dealer.”
“This… this can’t be happening.”
“Now, oasis.”
Labo took a step back.
“Opportunities like this don’t come often. Please, enjoy the taste of a full-on explosion.”
At those words, Oasis’ blue eyes sparkled.
“I’m going with the full set of sacred magic- ah!”
Oasis poured all the healing magic she had onto Abomination.
“Slow Heal! Fast Heal! Holy Light! Call of Sanctuary! Seraphim Tear! Absolute Cleanse! Gospel of Ascension!”
Flash!
A series of divine magic battles between healing priests that pour out endlessly!
The massive amount of heal was dealt directly to Abomination.
Critical!
Countless Critical! signs appeared above the Abomination that had been hit by its weakness attribute.
The thick HP bar melted away in an instant.
Kwaaaaah!
Abomination, who was screaming miserably, could not hold out for long and collapsed in the blast of light.
thud!
“Ugh, ugh, ugh!”
Oasis, which had burned most of its MP in an instant with a magical combo, was panting heavily.
Boss Monster: Abomination has been defeated!
Pure.
The strongest class in battles against the undead. This was a boss battle where the true value of the healing priest was fully demonstrated.
“This, this is… … this is how a dealer feels… … ?!”
The HP bar of Abomination, which had been disappearing with a slurp, was still vivid in my mind.
Oasis, who was staggering about intoxicated by the pleasure of the explosion, turned around to look at Labo.
“You’re a dealer because of this taste?!”
“yes!”
“It’s fun! It’s so fun! That’s why everyone only deals damage and not heals!”
Only then did Oasis understand the biased professional demographic of Wings Online.
The pleasure of being hit by a bullet was so terrifying.
Haha, Labo, who was laughing, stretched out his index finger and thrust it in front of Oasis.
“Of course, undead monsters are rare, so it will be difficult to have this kind of experience again.”
“… … .”
“Because you’re a healer~ You’ll always be my bloodline~”
“… … .”
“You are my~ eternal~ heel shuttle~.”
Labo now started singing a song.
Oasis’s lips protruded forward.
