Reincarnated in the game world ~ A gamer's beginning to [Dungeon job hunting recommendation]

"Haaa… <Quick Lightning Slash>."

"Jiga... gaga...... ga…"

The <Shaman Marionette> HP was quickly brought down to 0 from Ester's strong stab coiling around with light attributes.

Four times.

Leaving the first try, I blew the second flute a total of 4 times. Although the first time was a miss, I successfully managed to spawn a rare boss three times and currently, we are butchering the <Shaman Marionette> for the fourth time.

Speaking of which, I was wondering what would happen if the monster's segway were to be destroyed in the 2nd round. What if we didn't even need to drive it to the wall and by smashing apart it's only means of transport, the boss might just be a sitting duck for us to bash one-sidedly? Or so I had expected but for some reason, we couldn't destroy the segway.

What kind of force is working behind it? I guess it might just be normal given it was impossible to destroy a segway when I was playing the game either.

I was a bit, no, considerably looking forward to seeing if it's possible to defeat the <Great Bamboo Doll>'s segway in the real <Dungeon Activity>. What action will the <Shaman Marionette> take then when it's destroyed?

I was hoping that it could be destroyed, even though I knew, just why the hell can't it be destroyed!

My intellectual thirst for the <Dungeon Activity> is surging.

"What happened to you Zephyr-kun! It's so bizarre you're not excited by a Golden chest! Hurry up and open it!"

"Whaaat!? A Golden chest!?"

My excitement gauze immediately broke its roof the moment I heard Hannah saying that we struck gold.

Fu~ seems like all the luck stacked up until now has been used up. (Did we even have such luck?)

A rare boss has finally given us a Golden chest. You can even hope for excellent items, and as for whether it will betray my expectations... chances are almost nonexistent.

The 3 <Shaman Marionette> we have defeated until now has only given the minimum guarantees of two Silver chests.

I was just thinking it's about time for us to get a Golden chest, and it wouldn't be strange for <Beautify Phenomenon> to take place either.

The numbers are... 2.

Not perfect. That's a bit of a let down.

"Well, who's going to open it this time?"

"Me, me!"

Only three people came forward excitedly. I turned to look at the other two members.

"Can you stop looking at us as if we’re some sort of strange entity! There's nothing strange with us."

It seems that Sierra was offended by my gaze. Had I made such a strange expression?

Or maybe I did.

"Don't think we’re as obsessed with them. Let the three decide."

"You can't, Ester! It's a Golden chest, you know. I can't put it into words but I feel like there's something good. Maybe we’re going to strike gold this time. My heart is pounding in excitement! It would be a waste if you didn't experience this."

That's how valuable a Golden chest is. For a princess to use words like this was a waste.

"She's right, Ester. Nothing can beat the feeling of opening a Golden chest. It would be outrageous of me to ignore someone who hasn't come in contact with such divine feelings."

"Ester, you don't need to hesitate. It's a Golden chest."

"Sigh, even Hannah-chan is pushing at it, fine fine, I’ll do it."

Ester finally nodded at Hannah's magic words, "it's a Golden chest".

As expected of the charm of the golden chest, it even manages to fascinate Ester.

In the end, Ester and I were given the honor of opening the Golden chest after deciding between ourselves.

It's been a while since I’ve opened a Golden chest. I don't even recall when was the last time I opened one......

"This is the first time you’re opening a Golden chest in front of everyone. I feel like you're holding yourself back."

"Huh?"

It was true, as I fumble around at my memories after Sierra's remark.

I haven't opened Golden chests at all, except during the <Emperor Goblin> and <Beginner Dungeon> It's only today that I'm opening it with everyone for the first time..

"Exactly, we all thought you're purposely acting like that so that we could open the chests."

Ester, who was standing in front of the Golden chest nodded.

What a thing to say. It seems everyone misunderstood that I was holding back on opening them. Apparently, that's one of the reasons why Sierra or Ester didn’t volunteer to open it either.

Especially Ester, her state of mind was like it would be unethical to open a Golden chest when the guild master is not opening or something like that. Seriously, even I would have wanted to open it if I could!

Well, it's pointless to brood on the past. I will show them by opening more and more Golden chests!!

Let's pray first! Please let our prayers be reached to<Sachineko-sama>! Let our item be a jackpot!

"Please let us hit the jackpot...... <Sachineko-sama>!"

Ester first offers her prayers to <Sachineko-sama> and opens the chest.

"This is... it should be the vehicle Segway that the <Shaman Marionette> was riding on?"

"Ohhhhhh!"

Hannah, Lana and I simultaneously raised our excited voices as soon as we saw Ester take out that thing from the Golden chest.

And then everyone's gaze gathered on me, hinting at me to quickly explain.

"Its official name is the <Chestnut Roller from the Bamboo Doll>, popularly known as <Seg v2>. It's an all purpose movement item, unlike the accessory equipment that a <Knight> rides on. If you were to ask what's the difference between them, one is an item while the other is a piece of equipment. <Seg v2> can only be used for movement by one person. It’ll be damaged in the dungeon when it receives an attack so it can only be used for personal use. You also can't attack while you’re riding it."

I paused for a moment. These were the disadvantages of it.

Next are its advantages,

"The special ability of <Seg V2> lies in its movement speed. At its full speed, it will take no time to go from one end of the academy to the other end. It's a very convenient device that will make your tiring commuting life in the academy a pleasurable one."

In short, it's a bike. That sounds vague, but it's quite useful. Speeding up is an indispensable part of the game, as how it was in <Dungeon Activity>.

In certain games, the more the story progresses, the faster you move, altering from walking to dash and dash to bike. 2x, 3x speeds are becoming a norm in the game recently. It’s such a norm, that the game would prioritize speed to the point of even turning a blind eye to contradictions or bugs.

Such as, being so fast you can't hear what someone else is saying. You can't hold a conversation with the members of your party, and so on. Such were usual in games nowadays.

That's how indispensable the quick means for travel was.

<Dungeon Activity> wasn't the type of one tap movement game, you would have to properly control your character to the destination, that's why I was really delighted to have the option to speed up. In fact, even if we didn't gain vehicle items like <Seg v2>, I already had a proper plan B prepared.

Although that would be a bit expensive.

"So it's a hit!?"

"Yup."

Despite saying that, <Seg v2> is just a one person vehicle. In the game, the player just has to control their character to ride on it.I wonder how it will be handled in this reality......

Whatever, that's a topic for another time. Right now, I have to focus on my Golden chest.

"<Sachineko-sama>, <Sachineko-sama>, heed my prayer and bestow me some luck please!" (For god's sake, can't you see you have already been blessed)

Click

I opened the treasure chest and in there lies…… a single fan.

"A rare boss weapon!"

Lana who peeked in from the side exclaimed.

As she has said, it was one of the fans that the boss, the <Shaman Marionette> has used as a weapon, the <Demon Vanquishing Sacred Fan>.

——————————

Demon Vanquishing Sacred Fan : Attack power 8, Magical power 48

「Divine fall lv8」「Divine pillar lv5」「Force lv2」(T/N : the word here used is saint, but I have changed it to divine)

——————————

A weapon prioritizing level over status. It's undoubtedly one of the top class weapons in the beginner level dungeons.

The magic it offers might only be mid rank, but in addition to the sacred attribute magic and offensive magic, its resistance buff is outstanding.

Weapons like this are definitely the biggest jackpots!

Both Hannah and Lana can equip it, which will give a tremendous boost to their strength.

But which one should it be handed to?
