Pick Me Up! Chapter 245

#245

245. Play some games (6)

Jinho-chan complained to Amkena about the lack of a hero voice function for a while, then left.

I signaled with my eyes to the two people in the middle of the square. Cadia and Leone stopped moving side by side.

“Damn it… don’t let it go…”

Leon looked at me and murmured.

I feel like I have accumulated a lot of bad feelings, but with that guy’s skills, I still have a long way to go.

I opened the door leading to the training center.

“I’ll help you up to the 5th floor. If you listen to me properly, it will be of great help in the future.”

“Yep, sir!”

Cadia saluted me and ran to the training center.

be a teacher

It’s a name that doesn’t suit me.

‘Well, because there’s nothing to do.’

If Ram’s trio were wiped out on the 5th floor, Jinho-chan would end the game.

Then the hard work will be in vain. I shook my head and stepped into the training center. Behind me, Veda and Leone, who had a lifelike look in their eyes, followed.

Blowing the whistle I got from Isel, I trained the three of them until late into the night.

There was not much time left to enter the 5th floor. Instead of training physical strength, which is difficult to obtain training effects in a short period of time, or training weapons, we intensively practiced the teamwork part. During training, Leon ran amok several times, but I decided to put up with it.

Cadia and Veda followed my instructions without complaint even during the training that lasted until dawn.

In particular, Veda, a mage, did not make a single unpleasant noise even though she deliberately rolled it to increase her stamina.

It’s completely different from the guy who used flame magic.

I used to grumble whenever I did something.

‘… … .’

Is it complete?

I put down the thickly written notepad on the desk.

This notepad had a list of things to do after breaking the 5th floor.

‘I should pick more heroes.’

First, you need to create a party of 5.

Auxiliary heroes were also needed to support the fighting class.

‘I also have to fix the master’s habit.’

You can’t have them dress up as women every time a male hero appears.

If Jinho-chan starts working seriously on pick me up, things will get better on their own.

In addition to that, the notepad contains various know-hows that I realized while living with Loki and Taonier in Niflheim. If you follow the instructions carefully, you won’t die without doing anything.

The three of them were still rolling around in the training center until morning.

I have to go back to Taoni soon. So today, if Jinho-chan didn’t try the 5th floor and hesitated, I was thinking of using Cadia and Rion to request participation.

A few hours later, Jinho-chan connected.

The first thing Jinho-chan did after entering the game was… … .

[Gift shop!]

[Purchase ‘Rabbit Headband (X3)’ with 30,000 gold!]

[‘Rabbit headband’ as a gift to ‘Cadia (★★★★)’!]

[I present the ‘Rabbit Headband’ to ‘Veda (★★★)’!]

[Give ‘Rabbit Headband’ to ‘Rion(★★★)’… … .]

vary

They are wasting gold on useless things on a plate that would not be enough even if they did a free draw.

In any case, it was necessary to please the master. The three of them decided to wear rabbit headbands when Jinho-chan was online.

“If you leave here… I will kill you.”

Leon looked up and gnashed his teeth.

Cadia said while stroking the rabbit ears worn by Leon.

“It suits you well.”

“Do you want to die, uh! It’s not enough to wear a short skirt, so why don’t you wear something like this garbage?”

“How cute, uh-huh.”

“To think I have to team up with these things…”

The three entered the space-time gap while bickering.

Jinho-chan started the 5th floor challenge.

Unexpectedly, Jinho-chan was watching the game screen. In the meantime, she would go on a dive right after sending out her mission, but this time she seemed intent on seeing how the heroes fight.

“I’ll be back!”

Cadia waved at me and went inside the dimensional rift.

rattle. The door closed and the three figures disappeared.

Maybe half a day has passed since then.

Ram’s 1st party passed the boss stage without a single dropout.

It is said that the number of people is insufficient, but everyone was made up of 3 stars or more, and the party combination was appropriate.

It was a power that could pass through the 5th floor without much luck.

Originally, this was normal.

Taonier, where thousands of goblins popped out from single-digit floors, was particularly strange.

According to experiences, there was no crisis at all on the 5th floor, but it seems that the three of them worked together to overcome it.

‘It’s a really easy difficulty level.’

Someone climbed up every 5th floor, saying that he would live rather than die.

Well, it’s okay because I woke up.

With this, my work is done.

Now I just have to leave this place on an airship belonging to Taoneer, which is scheduled to call at dawn.

Fortunately, Jinho-chan seems to be thinking of continuing the game.

According to Isell’s report, that guy is looking for mission clear videos after subscribing to Amkena’s Mutube channel. At least that’s what got me interested in pick me up. Whether this interest is temporary, or whether it will continue in the future, remains to be seen. Can’t judge right now.

[Purchase ‘Nyanko pajamas’ with 10,000 gold!]

[‘Nittle pajamas’ as a gift to ‘Cadia (★★★★)’!]

It seems that the play style is twisted, but it is better than indifference.

I gave Isel my e-mail address and started preparing to leave. News will arrive as soon as Jinho-chan shows any suspicious movements. I decided to use Jinho-chan’s blog address or link to the KakaoTalk group chat room at that time.

‘It was a life that didn’t suit me.’

It was too peaceful.

I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve spent time thinking about such nonsensical things.

In a way, this dispatch to Ram could be seen as a kind of vacation given to me after being hit by missions and training.

‘When I go back… … .’

get busy again

break is over

A 5-star promotion, job change, and missions after the 50th floor were waiting for me.

I thought of Freea cutting through eggs with her shining sword.

Behind them, tens of thousands of mercenaries were shouting. A huge force followed the helpless little boy. A civil war will break out as the forces of the prince and princess collide all over the continent.

What I have to do there is to help Freea win the war.

And to drive out the unidentified enemies who destroyed Taoneer in the past.

‘There are also things outside.’

Amkena, who had just risen to the 50th floor, was a coveted prey for PVP users.

In my experience, around this time, pressure begins to come in from the upper masters. One of those targets was most likely me. Because Amkena hit an advertisement claiming to be a top-notch prospect. Until now, they had approached Amkena through whispers, but now things are a little different.

My head hurts just thinking about it.

I smiled and straightened my collar.

After tying the leather armor and cloak tightly, he put the scabbard and small pouch on his belt. I didn’t bring anything except armor, weapons, and a statue of a war horse, so I was ready to leave with this.

I got up and put the chair in.

As soon as I left the room, a message popped up.

[Information on the end of dispatch]

[The dispatch period for the hero ‘Han (★★★★)’ of your friend ‘Amkena’ has ended. Please encourage the hero who worked hard for the master!

[※alarm!]

[The ‘Lucette’, an airship belonging to ‘Taoneer’, is requesting a port call. There is no ‘dimensional rift’ in the master’s waiting room, so the airship will be docked outside. Accept?]

[Yes / No]

I’m sending it right away.

If things went badly, Jinho-chan might have put pressure on Amkena after holding me back. After all, using them was the right choice.

came out to the square.

The three figures are not visible.

By now, you should be enjoying dinner in the lobby of your lodging.

Because Jinho-chan bought a set menu at the gift shop and solved it. It was the first normal food I tasted after eating only potatoes for three meals a day. You must be busy eating your stomach.

‘Did I cross over to the warehouse?’

The warehouse door was opened wide.

Sure enough, a blue light was flashing beyond the display stand.

I stepped

“Wait a minute! Where are you going?”

An urgent voice sounded in my ear.

Looking back, Cadia was out of breath as if she had run hastily.

“You’ve been looking for it for a while. I left it for you.”

“What’s my share? Eat all of them.”

“By the way, where are you going?”

“I told you. I have to go back.”

“Oh, I thought that was a lie. Wasn’t it a test? If you pass, you’ll be qualified to fight alongside me… like?”

Cadia laughed bashfully.

I laughed out loud.

“You’re kidding. Why am I kidding you? I’m not lying. Like I said, I’m from another place, and now I’m going back there.”

“It’s not a joke…”

“Yeah, dude. I’m done with you here.”

“Uh, forever? Again? Never again?”

“Never again, forever.”

“That’s a bit difficult…”

Cadia scratched her cheek in embarrassment.

What a funny guy. Whenever we say we bury our bones here.

“There must be some papers in the desk drawer. You can use them as a reference and take care of yourself. If you follow the instructions carefully, you won’t die out of nowhere.”

I turned my back on Cadia.

And walked towards the dimensional vortex.

“You don’t say hello to two people!”

why do it

A soggy atmosphere is a no-brainer.

Rather, you would like me to leave.

“Are we really not going to see each other? Forever? Hey hey hey hey? Really? Really really? Really really really…”

… … this child.

I looked back

Cadia made a determined expression and put on a bunny ear headband.

“Nico nico ni! In your heart…”

“Don’t do it because you’re going to throw up.”

“……Hee-in.”

I sighed.

bother to the end That’s why I was trying to sneak.

“Ah, come to think of it, the man didn’t even tell me his name. That was too much!”

“An Israt of Taoni.”

“Is that your name?”

“Why, pick it up?”

“Oh no, well, I’ll remember. So, can we meet again?”

“It’s up to you.”

If only Jinho-chan could catch up to Amkena’s progress.

“That’s it!”

“okay.”

“See you again, Brother Han.”

I smiled bitterly and moved my feet.

As I entered the dimensional vortex, the light wrapped around my eyes.

That’s how my dispatch came to an end.

* * *

‘… … .’

My room on the 4th floor of the Taoneer waiting room, in the 1st party mansion.

I was in the trouble of a lifetime.

“As expected, number 396 is at the top.”

I put number 396 on the front of the display case.

Number 396 is my ‘confidence’ that went through a total of 6 remodeling.

It seems that he is not good enough to serve as the commander of the cavalry… … .

“Something’s missing, isn’t it?”

<They all look the same, what’s missing?>

Gugukon looked at me as if he was dumbfounded.

I frowned.

‘They say they look the same?’

Unlike other warhorses, No. 396 has an angle of about 17.3 degrees on its right forefoot.

I had to think about 5 hours to find the right angle.

Can you say the same thing knowing this?

‘Hmm.’

Are you going to make 396 the captain or not?

A choice reminiscent of jajangmyeon and jjambbong. No clear conclusions are drawn.

Like the conversation between the two going on up there.

wlsghWkd> Why no audio? don’t you think it’s weird

Amkena> Why is that weird?

wlsghWkd> It’s meaningless if you can’t hear your voice.

Amkena> ???

Jinho-chan was talking nonsense.

Even after I came back, the two of them would often chat like this.

Amkena> But it’s not folding. see if it’s worth it

wlsghWkd> I don’t know.

Amkena> I don’t know what. I know it just by looking at it. The more you do it, the more endless it is, so keep going. Don’t give up because it’s difficult along the way. If you work hard, you can do it even if you don’t do it.

wlsghWkd> By the way, the hero named Han doesn’t have a skin?

Amkena> What skin?

wlsghWkd> Looks like you can change gender with a skin?

It seems that Rion’s dressing as a woman has reached the point of mistaking Jinho-chan.

Where are the skins in this game? I shrugged and looked at number 396.

As a result, it seems that Jinho-chan also started to pick me up properly.

Looking at the screenshots Jinho-chan sent to Amkena, it seems that the party is properly organized. It seemed like he was also writing a male hero. One thing that was surprising was that Rion was still dressed as a woman.

Also, Amkena’s access time was increasing day by day.

‘I’ll have to take care of reality too.’

You can’t just hold on to your phone 24 hours a day, right?

Even in order to earn cash, you should invest time in picking me up as long as it does not interfere with your daily life.

As far as the game goes, in moderation.

16 hours a day… … wouldn’t that be appropriate?

‘I decided on you.’

I picked up the statue number 437.

Number 396 has no dignity.

Number 437, which has a 3.7 degree bend in the joint of the left hind leg, seems to be suitable for the captain.
