BRAGR) Securing A Base Part 2
🕑 Added 2024-04-17 02:58:21 +0000 UTCAfter conversing with Hilde, I walked into the little cottage to find it covered in dust and even some plants growing between the floor boards. This was to be expected since it had been abandoned. But still, I had to admit the entire concept of the game having such believable environments was quite insane.
But then again, just the fact that the game begins to appear in the real world along with the strange quest, I feel maybe this world is more real than we think. It actually kind of frightens me to even think this way.
Even still, I have to survive and see things through to the end. Until the day I die, at least. Whether that be now or later, I do not know. But I do hope to live a long time. I already died in my dreams, and it was not something I wished to experience for real.
I spent a few hours cleaning up the small cottage. By the time I was done, it was already nightfall, which meant I should check in with Angel. “Are you doing okay?”
“Huh? Yep! I'm almost done, actually. These quests were much easier now that I had a handle on my magic. I just hit level 17, too. I should be level 20 at least by the time I finish this quest. How about you? Are you doing okay?” Angel asked in return. To be honest, just knowing I had someone to converse with like this made me smile, especially so since Angel was my closest person.
“Master, do not forget you have me, your most wonderful, amazing…”
“Please stop reading my thoughts! Or I might just listen to Angel and send you back!”
“But Master, I was not reading your thoughts. You were sending them through the link.” Hilde’s words made me frown. I had no idea how not to send my thoughts over this so-called link!
“This is something I can help you with when you get back, Master. But for now, I think you should reply to your mistress.”
“She’s not a mistress! She is my girlfriend!” I said with a snort. This damn maid really does not seem to like Angel. I mean, yes, I know Angel was rude to her at first, but still. I sigh and send Angel a message back telling her how I got us a base of operations near the dungeon.
“That’s great. I just got a skill that allows me to set a teleport point. If I set one up there, I can take you and my father back to the base instantly.” Angel’s words made me raise an eyebrow. I had never heard of a teleportation skill.
“Where did you get that skill?” I asked out of curiosity.
“It was a bonus from the mage guy. I think it is because I am a pure mage that I was able to get a bonus. I can only teleport up to five people. And I can only set one destination point at this time. I need to progress it to set more.” Angel got a godly skill! I was kind of jealous, but it was good that she had such a skill.
“Then I will be counting on you to be my taxi,” I replied jokingly. She sent back an emoji in reply. “Let me know when you are done. I will head back to you.”
“Okay!”
Now, I just needed to figure out what to do for the next few hours. As I looked around I began to wonder if there was a way to actually make this place more secure. “Hey, Hilde, I know you are listening to my thoughts so can you help me come up with an idea to lock people out of a small cottage?”
“I do not know what skills Master has, so I am unable to give you a good answer. You could summon more golems, and with my help, you can summon another maid who is only slightly inferior to myself.” Now, this was something I had not thought about before.
“Will they be able to handle low-level players? Like level 20-30?” This was my main concern.
“As long as they are not a god, they will not be able to defeat any of my inferior counterparts.” I really wonder if Hilde is trying to assert some kind of dominance over the other summons, not that it matters.
“Then please help me.” I decided this was the best bet for now. There was not much else I could do to secure this place.
“Then please relax your mind while I send a strand of my mana into you. When you cast your spell, I will merge my mana into yours to help with the summoning.” Hilde explained.
I agreed, and soon, I felt a strange yet powerful force enter my body. I quickly cast my summoning spell, and from with in the magic circle, a new figure slowly rose up from within.
“Master…” A young woman wearing a maid’s uniform stood before me. She had small breasts and looked slightly younger than Hilde. Her black short hair fluttered slightly while the purple eyes on her expressionless face gazed at me.
“Your name will be Silvie.”
[Elite Maid Silvie added to summons slot.]
[Slots]: 2/3
[Elite Maid Silvie]
[Level] ???
[HP]???
[MP]???
[Skills]???
Once more, a monster has appeared. But this one seems much more calmer than Hilde.
“I am quite calm, Master.”
“Stop reading my thoughts!”
