Chapter 2 Eriri's Second Adventure

Walking into the entrance of the maze, the light dimmed instantly. Yakumo took out his magic wand and used the light spell to summon several light balls for lighting.

"What a narrow maze." Yakumo looked around. "The map magic does show that it looks like a maze, but the person who created this maze is too petty, isn't he? There seems to be a box in this corner."

Yakumo pointed to a corner of the map and said, "But a box that can be detected by map magic...could it be a treasure chest monster?"

"How is that possible! Monsters cannot be detected!" Fulilian interrupted Yakumo with a solemn oath: "That must be a treasure chest, it must be a treasure chest! You must teach me this magic later!"

Can it detect treasure chests directly? Fulilian simply can't resist the temptation of this kind of magic! Currently, Fulilian's map magic can only detect terrain, and Yakumo's is really far ahead.

"..." How does he teach this? His map magic can detect the box, or it is because of the combination of the game system. That kind of detailed map will show the treasure chest icon and the like.

How could a simple map magic do this? Unless we study compound magic and combine multiple magics, it would be a huge project, and Yakumo doesn't have time to do it right now.

"She really likes opening treasure chests..." Eriri followed behind Yakumo. Coming to this narrow and dark environment, Eriri subconsciously lacked a sense of security and could only follow Yakumo closely.

"It's Furlian after all. We don't know whether it's a treasure chest or a treasure chest monster, so let Furlian give it a try." Yakumo looked at the map and showed everyone the way. Magically, this maze didn't have any traps.

"In the days before map magic, this maze would have frustrated many adventurers. The design of the maze is also worthy of the name of a maze, with too many forks and twists."

After seeing a lot of mazes with traps and monsters, this traditional maze made them a little uncomfortable. They walked all the way to the box without encountering any traps.

"Hehe, I feel like there should be something good in there~" Fulilian rubbed her hands and reached out to open the treasure chest. Yakumo motioned for Eriri to stand back a little so that she could avoid being the first to be attacked if something unexpected happened.

"Magic book, magic book, magic..." Fulilian opened the treasure chest easily, but it was empty. Before Fulilian, who was completely petrified, could even lament, the entire maze began to shake.

The entrance closed instantly, and the surrounding walls began to close in. It was obvious that this treasure chest was not a treasure chest monster, but a trap itself! As long as the treasure chest was opened, the trap would be triggered.

"Why?" Fulilian bent forward in frustration. It was rare for her to come across a treasure chest that wasn't a treasure chest monster, so how could it become a trap again? Is it so difficult for her to open a treasure chest properly? !

"Aize, Xinmeier, the wall on the left. Break the wall and there will be a passage to leave." Yakumo stared at the map and gave orders calmly: "Eri, use normal attack magic to bombard this point.

a bit. "

"Eh? Me?" Eriri frantically took out her magic wand. Perhaps because of this sudden situation, she was a little nervous, and she was trembling when she cast the magic.

"Well, just bombard it normally. The magic released by your magic power is not that strong, so there is no need to worry about landslides." Yakumo added, and then signaled Xinmeier and Aize to prepare.

Perhaps it was Yakumo's calmness that reassured Eriri. Although she was trembling, Eriri still accurately blasted the magic at the location marked by Yakumo. With a click, fine cracks appeared at the marked location.

"So that's how it is!" Xinmeier and Aize understood immediately after seeing the cracks. Without Yakumo saying anything, they attacked the cracks directly.

Without much effort, the wall on the left suddenly cracked, revealing the passage inside. Seeing the team getting along so well, Eriri felt a little envious.

The passage opened, Yakumo used levitation magic on Eriri and Frillian, and ran forward with them.

"Put me down, put me down, I can run!" Eriri's face turned red after being "carried" by Yakumo in this way. This posture seemed a bit too embarrassing for her, and she was very embarrassed.

"Don't worry about it now, it's more important to escape!" Yakumo was afraid that Eriri would trip and fall in the passage. If she fell in a place like this, she would definitely fall behind.

Miraculously, after coming out of the passage, they returned to the starting point.

"What a magical structure." Xin Meir looked around and at the entrance behind him, confirming that this was the place they had just entered.

"It's a bit interesting." Yakumo also became interested. Unlike the previous mazes, this maze seemed to require constant trial and error to confirm the correct path.

The group tried for a whole day, and Eriri was the first to get tired. There was no other way. As a city-born lady, and a complete homebody, it was not easy for her to hold on until now.

"Ha... ha... how long will it take us to complete it..." From curiosity in the beginning, to repeated complaints, to numbness now, Eriri is completely unable to combine maze exploration and RPG games.

"This is completely different from the game!" Eriri lamented.

"Of course it won't be the same as in the game." Yakumo complained: "Besides, how can it be the same? Reality is sometimes more exaggerated than imagination. But TOEFL, your use of magic has become much more proficient."

The traps in the maze were not lethal, and the monsters that popped out were basically slime-level, which was just right for Eriri to practice on. After all, Sinmeier could kill them with a simple poke from his long sword.

"Also, now you can finish the blue potion easily. You have made progress." It may also be related to the experience sharing in the team.

"Really?" Eriri looked at Yakumo with sparkling eyes. The fact that Yakumo admitted this meant that she had indeed improved and her grasp of magic had indeed improved? !

"Yes, although it may be because the foundation is relatively weak, the progress seems more obvious. Or is it that by being with Yakumo, the mastery of magic will be accelerated? It is really worth studying."

Fulilian also stood up to express her agreement with what Yakumo said. She still believed that Eriri's talent was not strong and she needed to spend more time to learn magic.

However, after such a short time of exploring the maze with Yakumo, she has already become quite good at it. Can she also use similar methods to improve her understanding of magic?

If Yakumo heard what Fulilian was thinking, he would probably say she was overthinking it. In terms of experience points, Fulilian was equivalent to a level 200 experience bar, while Eriri was only about level 10. With the same experience points, Eriri would be able to level up quickly.

And Fulilian? Probably she won’t see any increase.

Chapter 3 Eriri's Second Adventure

Of course, maybe it's not just this reason. After all, Eriri and Yakumo have a chat group as a connection, so there is a feeling of experience upgrade.

Fulilian was not a member of the chat group, so she could not enjoy this treatment. Otherwise, the team had been traveling together for so long, it would not be impossible for them to not be able to level up. This was probably the root of the problem.

"Okay, let's take a break." Yakumo clapped his hands. In order to complete the exploration of the maze, the team also touched all the traps that could be triggered. Of course, there were also rooms that were not traps.

Yakumo marked all the places he had explored on the map.

"This magic feels like an electronic map, and it's even more convenient than an electronic map. You can also make marks at any time." Eriri came close to Yakumo and observed the map with him.

"It was developed based on the inspiration of electronic maps." Yakumo marked the room he had just explored. "One thing this kind of map cannot compare to electronic maps is that you need to open it yourself."

"But the advantage is that it can be used without GPS and the support of modern society. It's just that it may not be so useful in forest terrain. This map can't show trees and so on."

"When you go back and open the map, it will be fully displayed next time you use it." Yakumo actually didn't need to use this magic, after all, his system had its own map. But his teammates couldn't see it, so he researched this magic.

"There are only two left in the maze.

The room is gone. If everyone works hard, we can clear this maze." Yakumo looked up and said to Xin Meier and the others, "It is indeed a small maze. It only has one floor."

"No magic book... No magic book..." Fulilian pointed at her index finger, and she looked listless. Gold, silver and treasures were all external things. What she wanted was only the magic book!

"The interest is visibly gone." Xin Meier looked at Haita again: "This side is the same, it looks completely useless. Hey~ Haita, if you don't get up, Yakumo will be angry."

"Ah... let me take the blame... I feel like I'm about to ascend to heaven..." Haita looked as if his soul was leaving his body.

“Don’t give up here!” Yakumo couldn’t help but complain: “Also, do I look like I like scolding people so much? Look how good Aize is…”

To Yakumo's surprise, Aize actually put his hands on his hips and made a slightly smug expression.

"Huh?" Yakumo was stunned by this unusual behavior. Aize has changed a lot over such a long time.

"Are you guys... really okay? I always feel like our future is fraught with uncertainty..." Even though she had learned about this team from comics and live broadcasts, after actually seeing how they performed, Eriri still felt overwhelmed.

"That's right." Yakumo put one hand on his waist, and answered in a helpless but unusually natural tone: "Whether they are brave warriors who save the world or powerful magicians, they are all human beings, and they must have human emotions."

"If the hero is a pure and perfect person like in some animations and games, then it's not so wonderful. Because an overly perfect existence always makes people feel too far away and there is no way to get close to it."

"Throughout our three years of travel, Xinmeier has never been said to be unapproachable. This is the charm that a hero should possess. What do you think, Eriri?"

Eriri didn't answer, but she did think Yakumo was right. A hero like Xinmeier was more reassuring, probably because of the human nature of the people being rescued.

People who are too selfless are more likely to be suspected of having ulterior motives.

"Come, have something to eat." Yakumo took out the dry food he had prepared from his backpack. For convenience, he brought rice balls with him this time. But unlike Japanese rice balls, Yakumo's rice balls were filled with vegetables.

Fortunately, backpacks have the common feature of being fixed in place once you put them in, otherwise the smell would probably be mixed.

"There are two flavors: mushroom diced chicken and pickled mustard greens and shredded pork." Yakumo took out a few more pieces of zongzi leaves and put the rice balls on them: "I'll make some zongzi in a few days."

"You're just using a backpack so openly?" Eriri asked curiously while chewing on a rice ball, "Is your backpack considered a magical skill in this world?"

"Almost? As for the backpack, there's no problem. People won't ask too many questions." Yakumo said as he took out some juice from his backpack. If it weren't for the wrong place, it would have been like a picnic.

"...I'm so full..." Even though it was in the shape of a rice ball, it was essentially a combination of rice and vegetables, so Eriri was full after eating only one and a half. Looking at the remaining half of the rice ball in her hand, she didn't know what to do for a moment.

At first, she thought that Yakumo would not waste so many rice balls, but then she saw that Fulilian, who she thought was the most inedible elf, ate seven or eight rice balls by herself...

"Is this person really an elf? Could he be an orc in disguise?"

Fulilian's was nothing, perhaps because she could eat it every day, Fulilian didn't use her full strength. The one who ate the most was Aize, as a front-line warrior, his consumption was naturally the highest.

Aize ate more than twenty rice balls of the same size...

"I can't take it anymore. I feel full just looking at him..." Eriri turned her head away. The twenty rice balls that Aize ate in one breath made her feel even more bloated.

"That's strange. Doesn't the novel say that you can make up for the consumption of magic power by eating? That's why magicians all have good figures." Eriri continued to slowly eat the rice ball in her hand.

"That actually makes sense." Yakumo had done some research on this and was quite an authority. "It's just that the energy in the food still needs to be consumed by the body. Besides, you drank a lot of blue potions today, so you've already replenished your magic power."

"If you hadn't taken the blue potion before and your magic power was almost used up, I think you could still eat three rice balls." Yakumo said with a smile: "If you use magic more at home in the future, remember to ask Aunt Sayuri to cook more meals."

"...I'd better drink the potion..." Ying Lili imagined herself eating with a large bowl in her hand, shuddered, and quickly drove this scene out of her mind.

After a short rest, they began to explore the last few rooms. Two of them were traps, and one was a real treasure chest, which contained quite a lot of treasure.

In the last room, everyone finally saw a decent monster. Compared with the other monsters in the maze, it was still nothing compared to the monsters they had encountered since entering the northern countries.

Yakumo skillfully added a buff to Eriri: "Baby, you can do it, baby, come on!"

Chapter 4 Eriri's Second Adventure

"Who is the baby?" Ying Lili complained loudly, but unfortunately this could not change her fate of having to face the "powerful enemy" alone.

In hand, ready to help at any time.

After being buffed by Yakumo, Eriri finally understood why it was necessary to bring a support when forming a team in the game. Just kidding, the output is always changing, but the support is always there!

The benefits brought by the bunch of buffs made Eriri feel a little inflated. She even had the illusion that she could fight the monsters on equal terms with her alone. She rushed forward in a hurry, but was slapped back.

Then her whole body is a bust, and looking at it, I can't help but worry about Eriri's future figure.

However, due to Yakumo's buff and the protective magic robe on his body, the actual damage caused to Eriri was not that great; it just looked miserable.

"Kono!" Eriri got up from the ground. After being treated by Yakumo's group healing, there was not even a scratch on her face. But it was so embarrassing just now that Eriri was so angry that her teeth itched.

"Seeing Miss Sawamura's condition, I can't help but think of my childhood." Xin Meir relaxed a little, and the long sword in his hand lowered, touching the ground.

"At that time, I was often knocked down like this, but every time I tried hard to keep rushing forward. Now thinking back, it turns out that I have always been very persevering since I was a child." Xin Mei'er's words were a little narcissistic.

"Yes, you always came back with bruises all over your face, and sometimes you had to ask me to heal you. Fortunately, I knew some healing magic at that time, and besides, you were injured too many times back then!"

"Haha, I was still growing up at that time." Xin Meir was not embarrassed when Haita exposed his embarrassing moments. Instead, he continued to share his past experiences happily.

"You guys...can't you just help me..." Eriri was beaten back again, and seeing the people behind her chatting, she was completely numb. Especially when Yakumo gave her a group healing and signaled that she could continue.

What does it feel like? It's like a group of big guys who are already level 999 hunters ask you to play Monster Hunter. After you confidently enter the map, these big guys take out hunting horns and milk tablets.

Then the boss will buff you and give you medicine, and watch you get beaten. You are repeatedly beaten, but when you get up, you are full of health, and the boss will still say to you "baby, come on", just to see if you are angry.

However, after being beaten up repeatedly, Eriri's fear of the monsters gradually eased. People are always afraid of the unknown and powerful beings, so they can't fight against these beings better.

Once the fear subsides, human courage will always create some miracles. Eriri has almost entered this state, no longer feeling afraid of the monsters, and can gradually fight back.

"Oh, this is progress." Fulilian looked at Eriri's performance and gave a rare positive comment: "At this rate, she will be able to adapt to fighting against monsters soon."

"Although she looks like a young lady from a noble family, she does have some talent in combat." Aize also agreed with Fulilian's point of view: "She is much better than some young masters and young ladies who come out to experience life."

"Young lady...that's not wrong." Considering Eriri's family background, she can indeed be called a young lady.

"Your fighting style is already quite good." Haita nodded. "If you were in the south, a magician like this could hold a high position in some minor noble family."

"He is a noble himself, Haita," Xinmei reminded.

"Really? Haha, then there's nothing much to say. So can the noble lady give me a few bottles of wine later? Hahaha." Haita touched the back of his head and laughed.

Finally, with the help of Yakumo's buff and treatment, as well as the supply of potions in the group, Eriri successfully killed the monster and turned it into floating magic dust.

"I'm so tired, so exhausted..." Ying Lili slumped on the ground, feeling a little exhausted. It was really tiring. She was knocked away again and again and ran back to continue fighting. She felt that her fantasy of RPG adventure was shattered.

"How is it? Is it completely different from the experience you had when playing games?" Yakumo reached out to Eriri, pulled her up from the ground, and then pointed at the treasure chest that appeared behind her after the monster was destroyed.

"Now, it's time to open the treasure chest."

"Eh? Should I go open it?" Eriri pointed at herself, then looked at the others. Neither Xinmeier nor Fulilian, who loved treasure chests the most, had any intention of going over to open the treasure chest.

"Of course, you killed the monster, so the treasure chest should be opened by you, the one who killed the monster." Yakumo smiled and patted Eriri on the back: "Go."

"Hey, hey hey...then I'll go open it." Ying Lili smiled innocently, ran to the treasure chest, and reached out to open it.

Then she was swallowed by the treasure chest...

"Wow! Why is it a treasure chest monster! Shouldn't there be a reward treasure chest after destroying the monster? What the hell is a treasure chest monster?" Eriri struggled hard.

"This isn't a treasure chest monster, it's an opening mechanism." Yakumo didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he pulled the mechanism next to the treasure chest, and the treasure chest's restraint on Eriri immediately loosened.

"The mechanism is right next to us, just push it open..."

"Who can see it!" Ying Lili complained: "Can't people just receive their rewards properly?! I've already finished the game and still...
