The Golden Experience Point [Part 1]

Chapter 113: "Fluttering Wings!"

"Wow, your wings actually move! That's so cool!"

Just now, Rare spread her three pairs of wings in front of Blanc and took off from the balcony.

"Based on what Rare-sama mentioned earlier, it seemed like wings weren't necessary for flying, so perhaps she did it simply because it looks cool. Players tend to have similarities in those aspects. Do you have such tendencies too?"

"Hmm, I wonder. I don't have wings."

"If you did, you'd probably do it."

"If I were to grow wings, they'd probably be like bat or demon wings. They'd flap and flutter, enveloped in darkness as I soar through the sky."

"Ah, I see. You'd probably pull it off. Because it's cool."

Later, Blanc would need to ask Rare how to grow some wings.

However, even if Blanc could grow wings, she understands it's more important to first acquire the skills Rare recommended.

"Seems like I'm lacking experience points. It would be nice if these players could contribute more."

"If Rare-sama helps, you might be able to go hunt yourself safely."

"Yeah, maybe. But Raerae mentioned she only does things like spreading darkness to equally divide the xp between us."

According to Rare, experience points are distributed based on contributions in combat. Hence, Rare avoids attacking and focuses solely on darkening the skies, leaving it to the Spartoi to actually defeat players, so that Blanc still gets some of the xp.

Deas, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, will refrain from using his skill [Miasma] until the situation turns unfavorable.

"Actually, if all Rare does is darken the sky from above, couldn't Azalea and the other Mormos do the same? If you guys turned into bats, since there would be nine of you, you guys could potentially be nine times more efficient than Rare..."

"You've noticed that well."

"We'd love to, but we haven't acquired [Dark Magic]."

Come to think of it, they hadn't acquired [Dark Magic] because it had mostly mediocre utilities. However, if it could simulate dusk levels across a wide area, its usefulness to Blanc and the group would skyrocket.

"...I'll consider acquiring it if I have leftover xp. For my wings... maybe after that."

As far as Blanc can see from the Lord's Manor, the battle doesn't seem dire. Only the zombies are being defeated, and there's no harm to the Spartoi. Since they were only expected to act as distractions and disruptors, their defeat poses no issue.

"Looks like these players aren't particularly strong..."

"No, occasionally, it seems Rare-sama is doing something. I can't see very well, but sometimes, enemies start moving unnaturally."

"It might be good to pay attention to how the experience points are being collected. The amount reduced due to Rare-sama's support could be crucial information for future collaborations."

Carmine might be right. Idly gazing at the battlefield wouldn't be helpful.

"Hmm... Oh, the xp is coming in. Quite a large amount! So, are these players stronger than before?"

"Perhaps a bit stronger than the Spartoi and zombies."

"Oh, sometimes I only get half the experience. Maybe that's due to Raerae's support."

"Even though it seems like just a momentary pause, it's still takes half the xp. She indeed influences the battle, although there's no direct damage, contributing to the overall situation."
