I Defeated the Guide Angel and I Became a Necromancer ~ I Feel Like I'm Playing a Different Game from Everyone Else, but I'm Doing Fine ~ - Chapter 55 Part 2

Chapter 55 Part 2: Dreamscape Utopia, All Gathered!

“Nobody else? Alright, 17 million to Rage-san!”

“Yesss!! Thank you!! So, who do I pay?”

“To Rinne-san.”

“What?! You really brought some amazing items!”

‘Rage-san handed over 17,000,000 silver.’

“Th-thank you so much…!”

Wow, I might faint. What should I do with so much money…?!

“Now, onto the next item! Just before the main event, number 14! [★Slaughter Spinner: Abyssal Golden Ring] ! This ring already has a card embedded in it!”

“An additional 5 seconds of status effects sounds brutal.”

“Both giving and receiving an extra 5 seconds, huh?”

“But isn’t this the card from the orca that the master mentioned?”

“Ah, yeah, isn’t it?”

“Looks like it… The one that got me.”

Oh… Next up is another one of mine…! This ring has the Slaughter Taily Whaley card embedded, adding 5 seconds to status effects! The card’s effects allow the use of Screw Attack and reduce all damage by 5%.

“All damage reduced by 5%?!”

“Oh, really? The card’s effect is strong!”

“If you combine it with the earlier earring, you’d get a 15% physical resistance, right?”

“Maybe, but it might calculate the 10% resistance first, then apply the 5% cut afterward.”

“Otherwise, if you stack resistance and reduction, you’d be invincible with 100% cut.”

“Now that we understand its strength, let’s start at 5 million!”

“Hmm, I don’t have any skills that inflict status ailments…”

“Neither do I…”

“Then I’ll bid 600.”

“Napping-san bids 6 million!”

Yeah, it does seem like the drawbacks outweigh the benefits. Extending status ailments by 5 seconds is rough. No matter how much damage reduction or other perks it has, that downside seems too significant.

“Anyone else?”

“Oh, could I actually get it? Unexpected…?”

“600! Sold to Napping-san!”

“Yayyy!! I’m so happy, since this is all benefits for me!”

Even though it’s got a powerful card embedded, everyone hated the drawback! Huh? Wait, only benefits…? Extending status ailments by 5 seconds is a benefit for Napping-san? Why…?

“Here you go, Rin’ne-chan.”

“Oh, you knew it was from me… thank you.”

“Yeah, I saw it when I received it that time, and I’ve wanted it ever since!”

‘Received 6,000,000 silver from LovesNapping.’

“I got it cheap, sorry?”

“I’m just happy it sold!”

But asking why it’s a benefit would be against the rules…! It’s a bit frustrating, but Napping-san looks so happy to get the gear he wanted! Oh well!

“Now, for the item that was just added to the list. Everyone’s been holding back their purchases for this, right? [★★Golden Left Hand] !!!”

“Ooooh…!!”

“Wow, what are these stats?”

“Whoa, whoa, I want it!”

“Despite the name, it’s silver!”

“The skills are exactly as the name implies…”

So! Earlier, when I attached the corpse of that golden monster to a shield, it turned into this irregular, mystic rarity equipment! This is amazing, it’s a shame I can’t use it myself, but it’s got some incredible unique features!

[★★Golden Left Hand] (Superb, Mystic, Left Hand Equipment, Empty Slot 1 [○] )

[Curse] Cannot hold equipment in the left hand
[Curse] Costs 10 million silver to remove
Treated as a bare hand
Skill [Golden Barrier Shield] available
Passive Skill [Golden Left Hand] acquired
Passive Skill [Gold Coin Bag Appears!] acquired
Empty
“… Who knew such a hand existed…?” by the Surprised Duelist

Special removal, cannot be enhanced, equipment registrant [–], no weight

Despite the name, it looks like a silver bracelet. When you defeat an enemy with the left hand, a gold coin bag (a cash item that converts to silver when used) drops. Similar to the [Golden Right Leg] Donta has, it also increases critical rate and critical damage when attacking with the left hand. Plus, it comes with the skill [Golden Barrier Shield], which creates a golden shield without any cost! However, it’s a stock-based skill that can only be used three times within three minutes, and the usage doesn’t replenish until three minutes have passed. This is about all I could find from the equipment details. Since I can’t use it, I don’t know the actual performance.

Oh, it’s a rare type of cursed equipment that can be removed, but it costs 10 million silver to do so… It’s also notable for having a special removal method.

“Then, let’s start at 1 million!”

“5 million!”

“Rage-san, 5 million!”

“I’ll bid 7 million!”

“Kaku-san, 7 million!”

“950!”

“Koyokoyo-san, 950 million!”

“I’ll go with 14 million~”

“Napping-san jumps to 14 million! This might be your only chance to get it! Have you ever seen Mystic Rarity before?!”

“16 million~”

“Eris-san bids 16 million! Anyone else?”

“I’ll put in 20 million~”

“Napping-san bids 20 million!!”

“Oh my, oh my, oh my…”

“This is the power of having deep pockets.”

“How much money do you have~!”

“All the equipment I get from PK goes straight to auction, you know.”

“His source of funds is too strong…”

Huh, I was zoning out. 20 million? 20 million what? Oh, money? Wow… My head feels like it’s going to explode… I can’t keep up with this world…

If anyone in my group could use this, it would be Chiyo-chan, but she’s more into swordsmanship than martial arts! Donta’s equipment is all a mess, and Oniichan would have to unequip his shield since this counts as a bare hand, which would destroy his shield skills. No one in our group can use this. Plus, do we really need more of this stuff? It’s kind of uncertain…

“20 million, are we all agreed? 20 million! It’s decided for Napping-san!”

“Yay!! Here you go, Rinne-chan!”

‘Received 20,000,000 Silver from LovesNapping’

“Oh my gosh… Thank you so much…!”

Oh no! Oh no! Napping-san got such a powerful piece of equipment…! With this kind of performance, maybe 20 million is actually cheap?! No, 20 million is a crazy amount, it’s expensive! Still, just how much money does Napping-san have?!

“Napping had the income from the gauntlet earlier and the big win from the avatar gacha…”

“That bunny suit sold high, didn’t it? Was it 30 million?”

“He must have had close to 40 million. There’s no way he has any left now.”

“What do you think~?”

“Now, for the final item! Yes, I’m bidding 5 million!”

“Huh!? At least introduce the item!”

“I guess I have to!? Okay, the last item is this! The ★Wolf Headband!”

★Wolf Headband (Avatar, Head or Accessory [Other])

Howl!! Equip this and become a werewolf?! A cosplay avatar item!

Avatar Performance: None

Oh, right, this is the main item…! Judging by how things have been going, it’s probably going to sell for an insane price, so I need to be prepared… Right now, my money is… 43 million!? I’ve got that much already, what!? Seriously!?

“700.”

“Rena-san bids 700! I bid 9 million!”

“That’s unfair, isn’t it!? I’m ready, 15 million!!”

“1,600!”

“Losing already…!?”

“I bid 2,000.”

“I don’t want Baldy getting it. 2,200!”

“Eris-san bids 2,200,000!”

“That’s too expensive…!”

“Animal ear avatars aren’t even in the gacha anymore…”

“There’s not even a hidden one…”

“Then, I’ll bid 2,500!”

“””What!?”””

Huh? Napping-san, you still have money…? No way…

“I can’t match that much…”

“Eris-chan, even you didn’t think Napping would still have 2,500 left, did you…?”

“I’ll bid 3,000,000!!!”

“Heh heh… 3,300.”

“What!? 3,400!!”

“3,500. I’m not kidding, I really have it.”

Pers-chan—Napping—what? I can’t understand what they’re saying… How does he still have so much money…?

“Where’s all this money coming from…? Hey, could it be that the high-priced items in the official auction were mostly bought by Napping?!”

“No way, did you happen to sell the holy attribute dagger, Master…?”

“Yep.”

“If the hidden avatar bunny suit was yours, could it be that the classic maid outfit from back then was too…?”

“That’s right~”

“Just maybe, but… have you made over 100 million…?”

“Who knows~?”

Napping-san, just how good is your gacha luck and treasure box luck…!? Is this the fate power of a guild master…!?

“Oh? Can I buy it? Can I really buy it~??”

‘Napping has activated [Provoke].’

“Hey, no using skills!”

“Wow. When you use Provoke on players, they can’t take their eyes off you…”

“What happens if you’re hit by Provoke from different directions?”

“Priority goes to the higher level one, or maybe the closest one~.”

“I’m out!! I don’t think I can win with my current funds! Anyone else over 3,500!?”

“No way I can win…”

“Impossible. Plus, I don’t have the courage to wear that cute thing…”

“Alright! It’s settled! Ah, I wanted it so badly…!”

“Yay~~~!!! Here you go, Rinne-chan!!”

‘Received [35,000,000 Silver] from LovesNapping..’

“W-wow…! Thank you so much…!?”

This makes 78 million silver… No way, I’ve received this much… Am I going to die? No? It’s okay…!?

“So? How do I look?”

“Oh, it looks great on you!”

“Oh, Napping-san changed her avatar! Wow, that looks amazing…! You’re destroying it with your looks as well…! It’s super cute!”

“Aaah! I want a cute animal ears avatar someday too…!”

“Pers-chan, you need to get a grace rating, right…?”

“Huh…? Oh, that’s right…!”

“Well then, this concludes today’s auction. Whether you bought something, couldn’t get anything, or want to sell next time, make sure to join us again~”

“The Master who splurged is flaunting her ears…”

“Mmm… nice. Cute.”

“I’m glad I bought something good! I need to find something nice for the next auction!”

“Leader, aren’t we going to Ocean Abyss Dungeon?! They say there’s a Ho-Tate Shield there!”

“Oh, that sounds good. We just happen to have 8 people here~”

“How about we form a party with half from each of us, since it’s a good opportunity?”

“That sounds great! Let’s go with a half-and-half adventure magic group of 8 each!”

“We can finalize the party details on the way. Since it’s daytime now, let’s go to channel 8.”

“Thank you, Master! We’ll be back~!”

“Thank you all, it was fun!”

“See you~!”

“Let’s go!”

“Take care and have fun~!”

As soon as the auction ended, everyone’s motivation skyrocketed and they rushed off to the dungeon… The only ones left are the sub-master and the master, huh…?

“Baldy, let’s go hunting sometimes~? To the Ocean Abyss Dungeon!”

“Sure. Let’s go.”

“Really? Then I want to go too!”

“Oh, Eris-chan is still deciding, what should we do~”

“I’m going too! Besides, there’s something I want to look into.”

“Mmm… went. Nothing to do. Rinne, want to do something together?”

“Huh, wha, play something!?”

“Oh! Then, Eris-chan… tempting, but should we go to Ocean Abyss Dungeon? Sorry, Rinne! Let’s do it next time!”

“Okay! See you next time!”

Oh… It’s rare for Baldy-san to go hunting! With Napping-san, Rage-san, and Eris-san forming a party of four! It would be nice if they could hunt Slaughter Taily Whaleys in the Ocean Abyss Dungeon, but it might be difficult, as expected.

“That Slaughter Taily Whaley… seems beatable, depending on its capabilities, right?”

“Yeah, that Golden Left Hand from earlier. It’s silver but called golden… doesn’t really sit well with me, that equipment.”

“True! But maybe it’s just the left hand that’s ‘golden’, and the equipment itself is silver?”

“That’s one way to interpret it…”

“Well then, we’re off~! Rinne-chan, Rena-chan, Pers-chan~ Let’s play again next time~!”

“Yes, take care!”

“See you~!”

Ahh… I wonder if that left hand equipment from earlier is actually useful… And is there a way to cut through a damage reduction of 200…? Maybe poison? Does it work on that…?

“Oh, Rinne-san… I’ll be looking into this component that was sent to me earlier! Sorry, I’m just really curious.”

“Oh, that! Yeah, sure! Also, take this back.”

“Okay! If you need another appraisal, just let me know? Alright, Rena-san, um… take care of Rinne-san for me!”

“Mm… bye bye.”

“Take care~…”

Pers-chan being in the game and doing something else is probably the first time… But she’s with Renachan-senpai, so it’s not lonely!! It’s much better than going solo in the desert!

“Where are we going?”

“Yeah, yeah! Renachan-senpai.”

“Rena. Just Rena-chan.”

“R-Rena-chan… Is it okay to call you that!?”

“It’s fine. In fact, it’s weird to add ‘senpai’ after ‘chan’. I prefer just ‘Rena-chan’.”

“Okay then, Rena-chan! Let’s go to the desert together!”

“…………W-What…………”

Oh, she seems really reluctant. Is the desert not okay!? Is it really not!?

“But it looks fun. Let’s go.”

“Yay!”

(´ω｀)

“Oh… I didn’t notice. He was there.”

(´；ω；｀)

Oh, yeah, Oniichan was here… Yep, he was perfectly blending in, Oniichan. He has a talent for stealth… Alright, to the desert! Let’s try to gather everyone first, Chiyo-chan must be bursting at the seams… Alright, she’s marked as ‘full’ in the stats. Tornado-san too… Oh… Oh!? Drunk!? No way, Tornado-san!? And Laura-chan too!? What are they doing—!? They’re drunk!?
