Ch.46 Changing Status, Weird Title

Put the skin away and move the knife. Put the meat away and move the knife. We repeat this process over and over, but the turtle's huge body shows no signs of diminishing.

Even though it's actually diminishing, but because the object is too large it looks like it's not.

"I want that shell for a shield."

Eh, Takemaru-san, do you want a shell that big? I don't think it's the size you can carry...

"What, can you even carry this?"

"No? I just wish I could have it."

"So just a wish?"

"Just a wish?"

Oh, I ended up overlapping with Sakidori Midori-san.

After all, it's impossible to carry this. If anyone could, it would be... a giant? But even then, it's too big to be used as a shield. Even if a giant is carrying it, it would be more like a tower shield.

If I had a lot of MP, I could probably use telekinesis to carry it, but unfortunately, right now all I can do is lifting it up a little. The defensive power must be insanely high, after all, it's a shell.

"It's about time."

"Yeah. We'd better put the things we're holding into our sacks quickly."

Takemaru-san and Sakidori Midori-san check their watches and announce that the dismantling time is up.

The green clock with a black border is a magical tool that exudes luxury. Unlike ordinary clocks, it is powered by magical power. I recognize the logo. I bought something from that store in my previous life.

I thought it was ok because I probably wouldn't be able to wear it now, but now that I see it, I want it. But it's expensive.

"I understand"

"Wawa"

"This is the last one."

"I think this might be my last one too."

I'll put away the scales I took apart. I'll have them make not only armor but weapons as well. Yep.

"It's time, huh"

The dismantling time ends and the turtle disappears. Its huge body becomes transparent and we can no longer touch it.

And after it completely disappeared, all that was left behind are dropped items. On the ground below me as I'm flying, there are meat, claws, and a helmet scattered around.

"The helmet is human-sized. I can cover my whole body and use it for defense, but..."

It's obviously a big helmet. It won't fit in my bag. I can't carry it around with me all the time, so I wonder if anyone wants it.

But before that, I should cut the meat and put it inside my bag along with the claws.

"I got a helmet as a drop item, but it's too big for me to use. Does anyone want one?"

"I want it. Can I have it?"

You're Kaito-san. Great, let's give it to him. I hope this helmet will help you on your upcoming adventures. It will definitely protect your head.

"W-Wait, Kaito, at times like this you have to give the other person something too."

"Eh, ah, is that so? Sorry, Vester-san. Um, is there anything you would like?"

That's very kind of you. I'm sure there are times like this when you're right, but I really don't need anything. I have plenty of meat and skin.

It's always good to have other materials, but having too many is a luxury problem.

"No, no, I don't need anything in particular. I hope this helmet will be useful in your future adventures."

I lift the helmet and hand it to Kaito-san, who placed it in his magic sack with both hands and began to rummage around with his hands inside the sack.

"Then, if you'd like, please have this instead."

Saying this, he handed me a cookie wrapped in simple, slightly crumbled packaging.

It looks delicious. Perhaps it's homemade?

"Thank you for your consideration. I'll take it."

"I made it myself, and I think I did pretty well, I'm sure it's delicious."

"My goodness. Then I'll eat it little by little, carefully."

It's handmade after all. The shape is beautiful and there's no burnt parts. I'm sure he put a lot of effort into making it. I'll treasure it.

Now that we've checked the dropped items, let's check the status.

Title: None

===============================================

My level has probably increased by 3, since my stats have been increasinf by 6 points every level since I was at level 12.

I'll know my exact level once I appraise my main body, so we'll do that later.

And although I hadn't allocated any points until now, when I leveled up I received points that I could allocate to my status. I got 1 point for every level I went up, so a total of 15 points.

I allocated these as 8 points to MP and 7 points to LUK

Magic is life itself, and luck affects the rate of rare drops. I decided on these two this time.

Also, my rotten powder has gone up to level 2. I'm happy about that.

Even if its level has gone up, I don't know what has changed. But something must have changed. I need to test my skills somewhere.

That's it for the status. And now, the problem with my title.

I wonder what this is. 《Brutal and Cruel Victory》. Did I do something like that?

…I guess it's because I made it eat my rotten powder.

That was the final blow, and that's why I got this title. Is that it?

By the way, I'm not a sadist.

It says the people who have this title always say that in the description, but I'm really not that kind of person.

However, the effect of this title seems to go well with my rotten powder, so let's set it.

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

〘Heavy Demon Turtle Votilica〙​

A male individual that was the area boss of Area 1.

Originally a monster called the Gravity Turtle, it can use magic to manipulate gravity.

One of them was selected as the area boss and was powered up by growing larger and increasing its stats.

In addition to biting, it can also slash with its magically imbued claws, fire magical cannons from its mouth, and perform spinning attacks using its entire body.

When it came to becoming an area boss, the magic used to manipulate gravity on its huge body was deemed too powerful and was confiscated.

〘Equipment Item: Heavy Demon Turtle Votilica's Claws〙

★★★☆☆

Heavy Demon Turtle Votilica's toenails.

Since they are not used for direct attacks, their claws are not very sharp, but they are still very hard. They are generally used to make weapons such as daggers.

〘Protecion Item: Heavy Demon Turtle Helmet〙

★★★★☆

A helmet made from the shell of Heavy Demon Turtle Votilica.

It is made using a very hard shell, so it is safe to wear and will not injure your head.

Durable and unbreakable equipment.

VIT +20​

AGI -10​
