NINJA SKILLS 2

In Magical★Explorer, Ninja is one of the jobs that received preferential treatments.

One of the male characters that was a part of the public moral committee was a viable character thanks to his ninja job, and even the girl from the newspaper club can compete with the main heroine, thanks to that.

Now, there are a lot of ways to obtain the skills in the ninja tree. You can learn the [Ninjutsu] from the teachers or characters who have those skills or obtain them from a special dungeon.

If you simply want to acquire the skills then it is faster to just go to the teachers or other ninja characters. However, if that skill can be obtained inside a dungeon then it would be better to go to a dungeon considering the items you can obtain and general efficiency.

If that’s the case, it is inevitable to go to a dungeon.

However, depending on how you progress through the dungeon, it might be better to get a teacher to teach you. If it takes too much time to capture that is.

Only one skill is absolutely necessary, if I can get skill………let’s decide the route with that in mind.

Well, I will think about that later.

Right now, I should be concentrating on the dungeon. It should have been like that,

“…..Even so, this feels strange.”

Somehow I can’t concentrate.

“What?”

Ludi looks at me with an appalling expression.

“Look, we are walking on tatami mats with shoes on you know.”

Saying so, she pointed at her feet.

The dungeon that we are diving in right now is [The Karakuri Castle] (TLN: Karakuri mean mechanism). It is one of the dungeons that can be challenged after you become a member of the three committees or after you have breakthrough a certain floor of Tsukuyomi Academy Dungeon.

As its name suggested, the Karakuri Castle is a dungeon that has the appearance of a Japanese castle equipped with traps and special gimmicks.

On the surface, it would look like Ooku (TLN: Inner chamber) of Edo Castle. The walls inside have the appearance of a sliding door, making you feel like you are walking inside a room.

I thought, if I just punch at these thin sliding door what would happen? The result: it bent but it never breaks. Some sort of mysterious power must be at work here, I can’t make a shortcut with this. Well, with my experience so far, anything can happen in a dungeon. I don’t mind an unbreakable sliding door or two.

Well, that’s fine and all. The problem is the floor. You won’t notice anything from a wooden floor but tatamis are a different story. It has a weird elastic feeling like you are walking on a rubber. In the first place, stepping on tatami with your shoes is already weird enough though.

“Certainly, it does feel weird.”

Seeing Ludi, Nanami, and Yuika poking on the tatamis, I thought, if the tatamis have a fetish wouldn’t it be in an excellent position right now? If you become a tatami you can get stepped on legally and you might be able to feel their butts too.

What is this, I feel strange.

When I was burning with jealousy toward a mat, Nanami ready her bow. At almost the same time, Sempai also reaches for her Naginata.

I immediately take a stance with my stole, ready my katana and exchange look with the now serious-looking Ludi.

“Goshujin-sama, they are coming.”

A short moment later, a few monsters appeared.

As its name suggested, the monsters that appeared inside the Karakuri castle are all Japanese style.

“Azukiarai and Ittan-momen huh.”

Azukiarai and Ittan-momen are small fry monsters that appear in the lower floors of Japanese style dungeons.

“Leave the flying one to me.”

Saying so, I leave the Ittan-momen to Ludi and Nanami while I and Yuika start running toward the Azukiarai.

The troublesome part about Azukiarai is that it has long-range attack. It molded its magic power into the shape of a red bean and send it flying toward us like a bullet.

Even so, its speed isn’t so fast and I can easily deflect it with my stole wall.

And even to the girl next to me……

“ ? what’s wrong?”

She deflects the red bean bullet with her gauntlet without even looking at it.

“With room to spare huh.”

If I have to describe Yuika’s battle style then it would be a healer that can also do close-quarter combat. She is originally a character who is good at martial arts but she can also use a mace or a sword as well so she doesn’t have to stick to martial art alone.

Of course, because she is a popular character, she also received some preferential treatments as well. However, she also has a disappointing part. That part is when she was compared to the [Final Weapon] aka the First Generation Saint, their role in battle is overlapping.

But Yuika is super cute, her thighs and black knee-socks also have much destructive power, she even calls you Onii-chan and she is useful as well. So in other words, she’s a waifu. There’s no way that I wouldn’t use her.

Well, if you are not going to do an RTA then having two healers in a party is not a problem, you can use her together with the first generation saint…On the contrary, she has quite a compatibility with the first generation saint. Well, the first generation saint was heterogeneous after all.

“Oh c’mon, Takioto-san is also the same aren’t you.”

Well, in my case I already trained my teamwork with Nanami and Ludi after all. Rather, if I can’t do this much then it would be bad, isn’t it?

However, it is surprising to me that she who shouldn’t have collected that many magic elements can move this well. Is it talent after all? In the game, I know that she is one of the best talents in the academy.

“Then I will throw one over to you, take care of it for me.”

Saying so, I move forward while deflecting the red beans. There are two Azukiarai. I used fourth hand to punch the first one’s head then grab and throw it over to Yuika while I draw my katana.

I make sure that the Azukiarai was cleanly cut in two and look back at Yuika.

“SEIIII!”

Her gauntlets are emitting white light, Is it because she is using a skill? She throws a punch at the Azukiarai with all her body.

“One punch kill huh.”

“I don’t want to hear that from you, Takioto-san……..Honestly, I can’t imagine the current me winning against you at all. I can imagine myself being cut in two though.”

I smile bitterly at Yuika who is staring at me.

I have been strengthening myself the best I can. If I who already utilized so much of the game’s knowledge lose to Yuika here, let alone Iori, I wouldn’t be able to compete with the three strongest or the other main heroines after all.

“You will become stronger too Yuika. If you have the motivation then you will definitely become stronger.”

“I wonder why you can say something like that so confidently…….?

Because I know.

“Everyone, great work. It was a splendid combination.”

Sempai who was watching over us said with a smile.

This time I asked Sempai sitting this one out for us to gain experiences.

Of course, Sempai kindly agreed to my request.

After we retrieved the dropped cotton sheet and magic stone from the Ittan-momen and the magic stone from Azukiarai, Sempai mutters.

“Alright, let’s move…..”

“Ah, well, wait a little Sempai. How is it, Nanami?”

Saying so, I move my eyes toward Nanami.

“Yes, Nanami sensor is beeping. It must be around here.”

After checking with Nanami, I strongly hit one of the sliding doors. However, there’s no response. It should be around here, right? This time I hit the other side.

Is it the one next to it? Then the door slowly slides open after a sound as if something was unlocked ringed from it.

What appears was a passage. It is a hidden passage that I must take to obtain the skills I want.

“Sempai, let’s go through here!”

“….I have a feeling that I will be in your debt again.”

Smiling bitterly, Sempai was the first to enter the passage.

I tried to immediately follow after her but my arm was strongly pulled.

“Wai, please wait a minute. Is, is that a hidden door!? Eh, this isn’t your first time here, Takioto-san!? Rather, why is everyone so calm, it’s a hidden door you know!?”

It was Yuika. I was about to reply to her with my prepared answer but Ludi answered her before I could.

“Get used to it. You never know what Kousuke will do next after all.”

Before this, he even soloed the 40th floor too, Ludi said that while entering the passage after Sempai.

Looking at Yuika who is staring blankly at the hidden door, Nanami calls out.

“Yuika-sama, let’s go.”

Her face still shows that she couldn’t understand what happened but in the end, she walked into the hidden passage without saying anything.
