Hammer the Nail that Sticks Out[]

We've pretty much set quelling the waves worldwide to be our goal.

In the past, we could just do the ones around Melromark about once per month, but now, a wave happens every few days.

But by regularly fighting the waves, it seems we'll be able to reduce the pace to one wave per week.


It's just that when the Holy Weapons and Vassals are in a damaged state, the waves get more and more severe.

If you do something about that, you can go about the Waves with more leisure.

That was the main point of Glass's speech.


"Did you manage to take care of it?" (Glass)


After calming the wave, we meet up with Glass again.

We're in the middle of investigating whether any problems occurred around the area where the wave hit.

Once this finishes, we'll end it by portalling back.


"How about your side?" (Naofumi)


Glass periodically enters and exits the rift made by the wave.

The world connected is generally Glass's... apparently.

She occasionally finds herself in an unfamiliar one and immediately returns, though.

The last time that happened was the wave in the sea.

And wait, that doesn't matter. I need to find out the situation in Glass's world.


"If the world on your side loses the wave, then what happens?" (Naofumi)

"Well, the vassals I worked with and I somehow managed to quell it this time. If the world on this side quickly contains it, then the monsters on the other side will continue rampaging for a while... and eventually die down by themselves... is how it is." (Glass)

"It doesn't look like your situation is very favorable." (Naofumi)

"Yes... as always, the reincarnators just run around with their weapons without helping in anything." (Glass)

"How troublesome." (Naofumi)


It's even becoming doubtful whether or not these reincarnators were ever the legitimate possessor of a weapon in the first place...


"I'm jealous of your team." (Glass)

"Once you gather yourselves, you're going to crush him, right?" (Naofumi)

"... Of course. Though I don't know what's there to celebrate." (Glass)

"Do you even have time for celebration?" (Naofumi)


To keep just a sprinkle of hope in her pot of misery, Glass is cooperating with this world.

If she truly had any fortune, it would never have come down to this.


"However... pertaining to the World Assimilation, what do you think about the reincarnator?" (Naofumi)

"Mostly, why must he interfere with us? Is my main question. He said it was something like apdeit... or something that made absolutely no sense to me." (Glass)


Update... the wave is?

So he's also functioning on his gamer instincts.

Well, by destroying his comrades, his enemies get stronger, and he gets new equipment. He's not exactly wrong, but this and that are separate issues.
