What's past is past; what matters is focusing on the present.
Enjoying the cool evening breeze, Brid opened the creaking iron gate that the Sirocco family had used for many years.
"Rubbish?"
Years later, Brid would reflect that the so-called guidance of fate is nothing more than such seemingly unintentional coincidences.
When I arrived, I was carrying a box of snacks and my attention wasn't on my surroundings.
Because she had the energy to observe, she noticed a crumpled piece of paper stuck under the iron gate.
Did the garbage bag fall out?
Brid picked up the crumpled paper and unfolded it casually.
At the very top of the paper, written in a distorted red crayon, was the word "Marriage Agreement".
There were two signatures at the bottom, and although they were messy, they were still legible.
"what......"
Brid hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.
42. First day of training ends.
See you tomorrow, Sirocco!
"Don't wear a suit tomorrow."
"That's all your fault for not explaining things clearly back then!"
Cass waved goodbye happily and got into a taxi.
The bus stop in the Dicheng commercial district.
As the taxi carrying Cass drove away, it marked the end of the first day of training for Sirocco and Cass.
The public transportation in the commercial area operates 24 hours a day, so there's no need to worry about missing a bus. It serves both tourists and explorers.
Cass offered to send Sirocco on his way, but Sirocco declined.
A delicate sense of self-esteem wouldn't allow it.
He likes others to owe him, but doesn't like to owe others.
While waiting for the bus, Sirocco brought up the ring table window to check his ability stats.
HP upper limit: 70→83
MP Limit: 79
STR Strength: 63
END durability:66→82
AGI Agility: 69→123
DEX Dexterity: 79 → 100
INT Magic Power: 80 → 83
—Transformed into rock—
"...I felt like I was jumping around all night."
Although there was no upgrade, Agility increased by 54 points and Dexterity increased by 21 points, which was even more effective than the upgrade.
How come the durability increased so much? I only used a skill to withstand Cliff's flying kick once!
what.....
The only reason Sirocco could think of was that Cliff had kicked him so badly that he endured it until he had exchanged several words with Cass before taking the recovery medicine.
Did I tolerate it? Yes, I tolerated it.
Did you endure the injury? Yes, I did.
Does this count?
It's a rather subtle judgment.
Even more subtle is the magic power, which increased by 3 points.
Using skills frequently will help your magic power and mana bar continue to increase.
With the ban on
However, compared to himself, Sirocco felt that Cass's side was truly outrageous.
Look at the time in the upper right corner – 10:11.
We got back earlier than we expected, before 11 a.m.
"That's too intense."
It refers to Cass.
Defeating the second-stage Maple Knight will allow him to level up to Lv9.
He was promoted two ranks.
They rose much faster than me.
Compared to the experience points gained from grinding goblins for ages back in Sirocco, Kass's experience points were ridiculously fast.
Although only two Maple Knights were killed tonight, there was a "nighttime experience point increase" buff, and Cass had also been grinding monsters to level up before, so leveling up wasn't surprising.
The strange thing is that Sirocco originally thought that Kas and the second-stage Maple Knight would have a tough battle.
He won in just 10 minutes?!
It never even came close to death.
For the next 10 minutes, he kept dodging and weaving, dealing with the second-stage Maple Knight.
Once you fully understand the move, use three sets of skills to finish them off.
He laughed heartily while hitting the target, and at the end he had a satisfied and fulfilled expression.
What kind of battle maniac?
The Chosen One?
Even in the second playthrough of the game, Kas always had a blank, wooden face when fighting enemies, instead of the way he now looks, enjoying the victory after a hard-fought battle.
"...It should be alright, right?"
Subtle changes seem to be increasing in Cass.
His rapid adaptability in battle unconsciously reminded Sirocco of Victoria.
With a sunny, cheerful, and approachable appearance, he is a complete battle maniac in mainland China. He reaped the benefits in the main story and never suffered a defeat as a playable character in the DLC. There is reason to suspect that the development team had some personal agenda with Sirocco.
"Forget it, let's just say that Cass is currently influenced by his mother."
This isn't a very big problem.
The problem is that the crisis of the Cliff Minotaur has not been completely resolved.
Sirocco believed that he would appear on time on the day of the duel.
At that time, he fell off the cliff, and it was inconvenient for Sirocco to go down and finish him off; it was very likely that he would not return.
If he's left there, he'll definitely be surrounded and killed by the monsters at the bottom of the valley.
The strange butterfly effect led to the rescue team that Brad called to save her becoming the one that saved him.
Although the second phase of the Maple Knights' attacks are varied, you can eventually win by slowly grinding them down using the backplates.
Of course, Cliff wouldn't just throw punches and kick people without thinking; there would definitely be various unstable factors in a real fight.
The best way is naturally to increase your level.
I absolutely do not want to see any defeat cutscenes.
It's still barely within the plot's direction, but we can't afford to be careless; it's not at the point where we should be celebrating.
Cliff's defeat this time bought him a lot of safe time to level up.
Of course, there is also a way to solve this once and for all.
They took Cliff to the hospital to remove the tubes.
"Ha... my thinking was a bit extreme."
