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 80

◆ Demon God Temple • Guild Room [Room 3] ◆

— Premium Avatar Gacha Ticket. It’s a ticket I almost forgot about, obtained from the Hell mode of true annihilation, true slaughter, and the hell whale, thanks to Pers-chan and me. According to Pers-chan, she likes the appearance of the Black Princess set, so she said I could use it. She doesn’t need it anyway since she’s already drawn a lot from the avatar gacha. So, without hesitation, I ended up receiving it.

What’s amazing about this Premium Avatar Gacha Ticket is that a Hidden Avatar is guaranteed to come out. A Hidden Avatar refers to costumes not listed in the gacha prize list that have a 1% chance of appearing when you draw from the gacha, with the number and types completely unknown. There’s even a possibility of getting a set avatar like the indecent maid set I dressed Laura in.

The reason I remembered this item now is entirely due to the cat ears and tail. I was searching for them, thinking, “Hey, they’re not in my inventory.” Then I was told they were in the avatar-specific inventory called the Avatar Closet. When I tried to take them out, I found something called [★ Premium Avatar Gacha Ticket], which also fell under the category of avatar-related items, leading me to go, “Ah, that’s right!!”

Now, regarding what to do with the earlier-mentioned cat ears and tail, Rena-chan declared,

“I’m a dog person. I’d wear dog ears and tails, but not these.”

Pers-chan announced she wouldn’t wear them either because “there’s no elegant rating… so I won’t wear them.”

I suggested selling them, but I was told to brace myself for a price that might make my heart stop, so it was better not to sell them. In the end, I was left with the responsibility of handling them. Given their performance, it’s challenging to decide what to do. I was told that I could give them to any guild member, or better yet, wear them myself. But what should I do? I can’t wear the tail either.

“Alright, I’m going to draw now…”

“Sure, go right ahead!”

“Go, go!”

For now, I’ll let myself draw. I’ll deal with the cat ears and tail later. Come on, give me shoes that match my Gothic Lolita dress, or shoes that fit the gear I’m currently wearing, or shoes that go with Babylon-chan’s dress! I won’t be greedy; I’ll settle for shoes that match the Demon Queen Babylon’s Lolita Dress +15!!!!!!!

‘ [★Premium Avatar Gacha Ticket] has been inserted. Starting the draw…’

‘ [★Don’t Touch, It’s Dangerous! Set] has been won!! Congratulations!!’

‘Thank you for your patronage!’

No, this isn’t anything to celebrate. What even is the [Don’t Touch, It’s Dangerous! Set] …? Who on earth developed such a landmine-like Hidden Avatar? The name itself is completely incomprehensible—

“Ah—!!!”

“Wait, Rinne-san!? What’s wrong!?”

“Something absolutely amazing came out. It’s written all over my face!”

—Ah!!! Ah!!! Ah!!!

“Please appraise it!!!!”

“ Rinne-san~~! Where are you going~!?”

“Good things come to those who wait, you know. Pers-chan.”

“What do you mean!?”

◆ Three minutes later… ◆

I opened the servant information window and pinned down the target’s location. I spotted the target browsing accessories in the urban area of Lorelei. Target confirmed; I will now execute the Master’s authority.

“—Here I go—!!!”

“Eh!? Wha—!?”

Illustration (By Mitemin)

Execution complete. Lia-chan, from today onward, you will be… a kitty…

“B-big sis…!?”

“Wow… perfect… so cute…!! Thank you for being born, Lia-chan… ughhhh…!!”

“Are you crying!? Is it really that emotional!?”

It’s perfect, perfect! Lia-chan is too cute…! Pers-chan and Rena-chan will be satisfied when they see Lia-chan like this!! Because it’s just so cute, so cute!!!

‘The effect of the [★★★Cat Lord] set will activate for Aurelia.’

‘Aurelia has acquired the passive skill [Cat Lord] .’

‘Aurelia has learned the skill [Nyan Nyan Festival] .’

“Whoa!!???”

“I just felt a little shiver run through my body…!”

The avatar has set effects…!? Even wearing the full Hidden Avatar set doesn’t give any effects, but these monster-origin or treasure-chest-origin avatars have set effects!? Then, maybe if I attach the tail to Guild Master Napping, it will also have a set effect!? This is serious; I need to go back to the guild and report this!!

“Lia-chan, are you done shopping!? Aren’t you going back to the guild!?”

“Eh, um, I’m fine! There wasn’t anything I wanted, so I’ll be heading back!”

Lia-chan’s ears are wiggling cutely right now, and her tail is swaying gently! So cute!!! All other emotions have vanished… I might just disappear from the sheer adorableness… Ah~~~… I want to hug her tightly…

◆ Demon Temple – Guild Room [Lobby] ◆

When I returned to the guild room, everyone except Pers-chan and Rena-chan had logged out. Now that I think about it, it was lunchtime. They must have already gone for lunch… I missed the chance to see the newly dressed cat girl Lia-chan!

“—It’s nice.”

“Isn’t it nice…?”

“It is nice…”

“Um…”

“Her ears flattened…”

“It’s nice…”

“It really is nice…”

Yes, so the three of us are admiring the cat girl as if we’re licking her all over… from corner to corner. By the way, “Don’t Touch, It’s Dangerous!” refers to what you’d call an old landmine-style fashion, which is still popular in the dark-cute fashion scene. It consists of a white blouse, a black apron dress, a black mini ribbon, and black platform shoes. It’s a classic and prestigious landmine-style fashion… hence the set name “Don’t Touch, It’s Dangerous!” I love how the management here indirectly expresses the term landmine-style.

Oh, and just as I said before jumping out, Pers-chan and Lia-chan were appraising the items obtained from Drake.

‘The [? Helmet (Rainbow)] was [★★Dragoon Helmet] .’

‘The [? Armor (Rainbow)] was [★★Dragoon Armor] .’

‘The [? Clothing (Rainbow)] was [★★Dragoon Under Armor] .’

‘The [? Shoes (Rainbow)] were [★★Dragoon Greaves] .’

‘The [? Hat (Rainbow)] was [★★Wizard’s Tiara] .’

‘The [? Robe (Rainbow)] was [★★Wizard’s Robe] .’

‘The [? Clothing (Rainbow)] was [★★Wizard’s Truth] .’

‘The [? Shoes (Rainbow)] were [★★Wizard’s Shoes] .’

‘The [? Full Armor (Rainbow)] was [★★Full Metal Gunner Armor] .’

‘The [? Book] was [Fairy Tale: The Homeless Girl and the Little Dragon] .’

‘The [? Book] was [Dragon Parenting Diary] .’

‘The [? Book (Rainbow)] was [★★Rare Thick Red Dragon Card Binder] ! Congratulations!!!’

After discussing while looking at Lia-chan, we decided to dress her in the full set of wizard gear, as she was the perfect fit for it. The thick rare dragon card binder had a description of 4 random rare red dragon cards appear (5 types total), so we decided that Pers-chan and Rena-chan would each take two cards. Pers-chan drew the 1st and 4th cards, while Rena-chan got the 2nd and 3rd cards, and the results were—

‘Drawing 4 cards from the [★★Thick Rare Dragon Card Binder]…’

‘You drew the [Red Dragon Egg Card].’

‘You drew the [★★Flame Dragon Empress Drake Card]!!! Congratulations!!!’

‘You drew the [★Violent Dragon Emperor Card]!! Congratulations!!’

‘You drew the [★Violent Dragon Emperor Card]!! Congratulations!!’

To our surprise, we drew two copies of the Violent Dragon Emperor Card! The Red Dragon Egg Card was disappointing, as it only provided an effect of “HP +500” for shields. I mean, it’s true that an egg is… rare… but it was a letdown. Now, regarding the effects of these two Drake cards, they had some outrageous abilities…

[★Violent Dragon Emperor Card] (Legendary Accessory [Neck])

“I’ve inserted it into my weapon. Nice.”

“Looks good… But, um, I still can’t insert it yet…”

“I’ve inserted the neck one too, so breath attacks won’t work from now on.”

For Rena-chan, both cards had effects that made her very happy. Is her firepower going to increase again? The drawback of consuming almost half her HP is pretty harsh, though…

Since Pers-chan’s neck accessory is shabby (shabby neck accessory refers to something not very impressive), she might want to update her neck accessory. Wow, if she were to get past Pers-chan’s penne, and by any chance, if she was attacking with fire attributes, that would mean her attacks wouldn’t go through due to Self-Burning—talk about a terrifying defensive performance…

“Um, is it okay if I take this…?”

“It’s fine. I just want to see the original appearance of the avatar after I remove it.”

“I want to see it too!”

“Oh, then Lia-chan, can you let me remove it for a bit? Sorry about that?”

“Yes!”

“Your ears just folded back… so cute.”

“Hmm, so cute…”

“To think there’s a special motion even when removing it…!!”

So, Lia-chan received the wizard set. Since I was curious about how it looked, I asked to remove the avatar, and the cat ears vanished as if they were tucking into her hair. Having a special motion, as expected, gives off an extraordinary aura of power that comes from being in such a treasure chest…! The fact that the avatar has abilities attached is amazing… There must be a lot more like this~.

“Ah~… That’s the outfit I saw in Magna’s room, from when younger Arus-chan was around.”

“I see! It’s quite a change from the flashy appearance of the current Arus-san~.”

“Arus-san is that girl in the potion shop, right?”

“Yeah, she makes various potions. Ultimately, she was the one who created ‘The Moon is Beautiful Tonight #1’.”

I see, so Arus-chan used to have a plain appearance. She seems really flashy now, though. Actually, just the other day, I ordered cocktail potions to calm my sisters down, but all I heard from the back was, ‘Okayyyy!’ and didn’t get to see her.

“Since it was just an order, I didn’t get to see her properly…”

“Magna is the exact opposite. He has messy red hair and isn’t interested in fashion, while Arus-chan has blue hair with colorful inner highlights and is a fashion leader. She’s so cute; I should talk to her next time.”

“She’s a very bright and cheerful person! Just talking to her lifts my spirits!”

“Wow… I’ll definitely try to meet her next time… Oh, sorry, Lia-chan!”

“Fwah!? Oh, they popped out…”

“When they grow out, they take a little pause and then pop out. So cute…”

“It’s so detailed. I can feel an extraordinary love for the cat ears.”

“I feel it too… This is love, isn’t it?!”

I kept observing those little cat ears bouncing around and the swishing cat tail forever… Watching Lia-chan slowly blush while staring is just too cute… Oh, speaking of which, Lia-chan’s evolution path has a bit of a problem, so she won’t be able to evolve for now.

[★Witch of Calamity] (Dark Attribute, Demon Type, Medium)
The second-generation Witch of Calamity has grown into an alluring form.
Her magical power will surely summon great disasters.

[★★Unreleased] (???, ???, ??)
Cannot be selected.

[★★★Unreleased] (???, ???, ??)
Cannot be selected.

Unlike with big sis, I can’t force a evolution in this unreleased state. It’s natural that she won’t evolve, as it clearly says “medium” for the Witch of Calamity. This isn’t just my judgment; Lia-chan firmly rejected the idea, saying, “Huh? After growing, that form…? N-no, thank you…” Apparently, Lia-chan has grown fond of her current appearance and doesn’t want to lose it.

“By the way, what’s the effect?”

“Ah… If I spend a little, I could probably get it up to around +5…”

“How high does it need to be for maximum effect?”

“The robe, I think, goes up to +12…? The others should be around +10.”

“Oh my, that’s the same as mine! Then let’s enhance it after lunch, shall we?”

“Eh?”

“I have more than enough enhancement tickets, so you don’t need to worry! I also have plenty of ☆5 magic crystals as a byproduct from the gacha, so it’s all good!”

Wait a minute, I do want to enhance Lia-chan’s equipment, but does that mean Pers-chan is spending money and I’m using that to power it up? That feels way too much to ask!! It’s definitely not reassuring at all!

“You have received a message.”

“You have received a message.”

“You have received a message.”

“You have received a message.”

“There are plenty, so please use them properly, okay?”

“Ugh, enhancing is tough. Well then, I’ll have my meal too. See you later, bye-bye!”

“07XB785Y has logged out.”

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, a huge amount of items are being sent as attachments…!? No, this is scary! Is this game a horror game or something…!? Heeee, Rena-chan has gone off to eat, and she left before I could ask for help!!

“I’ve sent them completely transferred so you can’t send them back! If you need more, just let me know, okay? I’ll check in later too, okay??”

“Eep…!? Thank you, Mayumi-sama, thank you so much…”

“Well then, take care~~!! Oooooohohohoho—”

“Perseus has logged out.”

The last “ho” got cut off, Pers-chan… I’m really sorry, and thank you… I have to give something back… Oh! I’ll make her a necklace to help with her shabby neck accessory! Maybe I could use that golden thing on a corpse! I’d love to hunt and give it a proper burial if I found it… Now that I’ve decided, I should eat quickly and head out hunting!

“Well then, Lia-chan… I’m going to eat, okay? Can I pet you?”

“Yes! Ah!”

“Gotcha, Lia-chan, I’ve got legal petting permission now…!”

“Hyaah… You can’t touch the base of my ears~~… It feels strange and ticklish with this unknown sensation~~… Um…! Nya, nya~~o… E-ehhe…”

…Is this girl trying to kill me…???
