026. Remember This, Jasmine Is Not The Main Wife.
Remember this, everyone: Jasmine is not the main wife.
"Critical Hit 1 second of 15% defense increase came out?"
"Let's bundle that and reroll it once more."
It seems the Critical Hit 1 second effect has a high appearance probability.
Since the application time is very short, the activation rate is a bit low.
Compared to other options, it's not a very high number, and most rising stats are defensive, so it's treated as trash-tier option.
"Critical Hit probability 12% came out."
"Release the bundled one from earlier and bundle it again."
However, since this is the option in the third slot, by bundling like this, there's a 50% chance it will come out as the first or second option.
Since the second option, Critical Hit probability, came out, now bundle that and reroll.
Now, there's a 50% chance it will come out as the first option, Critical Hit damage.
"Eh, it came out. But it's not 20%."
"Reroll until it comes out 20%."
The numbers are slightly random, but since it's possible to snipe with a recipe like this, there was no need to be satisfied at an appropriate level.
Wow, but it works even with this bug.
This way, most cheat plays will remain intact.
"This should be enough. Good work."
With this, we were able to extract the best support skills, 2 of them, with the minimum Sugar Cubes.
Of course, there are 3 support skills, but honestly, the one without a recipe requires luck to snipe, so it's tough.
Satisfying at this point was the best for now.
"Hmm, I understand. Then how did you figure out this list?"
"Ah, I memorized it. Want me to write one down?"
"Yeah."
Because of this support skill bug, Princess Fourmi faced quite a crisis.
The content that was made by throwing money at it before was now much cheaper and lower difficulty.
How angry the existing users must be.
Fortunately, at that time, all Sugar Cube usage records were still on the server.
By resetting the support skill of that character, we provided a drastic function to return all used Sugar Cubes.
Instead of fixing the bug, we made it into an in-game guide and variable probability table.
In fact, we declared that we would reduce our own future profits.
'Still, it was a direction where everyone could be satisfied.'
Thanks to that, the game didn't die and popularity continued long.
It was the same even before the 2nd anniversary right before I transmigrated here.
...Ah, it was a pity I didn't get to see the 2nd anniversary event.
Was it like how at the 1st anniversary, they made a 5-star as Princess Form?
At the 2nd anniversary, they wouldn't make a 6-star or something as the next one?
...I think the developers are crazy enough that it could happen.
"Cotton Candy has all been eaten. Is this enough?"
"Ah, wait a moment."
I slowly looked at the receipt, or rather Fruity's back.
The stats were more than enough to handle the main dealer in the next difficulty, Hard, and were overwhelming.
I stroked the additional tattoo part that signifies 'haste', checked the skill description and level.
'Perfect.'
I need to raise the specs of the others too.
Considering the damage share of the main dealer, even if luck is a bit bad on that side, it should be fine.
The 2nd phase is a spec that can clear in one Groggy, so no haggling.
"Haa...."
"My body is like a furnace. Hurry to the bathroom and wash with cold water."
"Ye, yes."
Compared to others, Fruity doesn't seem to have much heat from stat up, but because of the large stat increase today, she had to be sent to the bathroom to cool down the heat.
"Good work."
"Jasmine, are you okay? We seem to have used up most of our supplies."
Except for the Cotton Candy for Minty, we used most of it.
After all, supporters have lower importance for stats than dealers.
No big problem.
"After all, it was something I had to use."
Calculating, it was enough with other event acquisitions anyway.
As the farming area changes with investment to become stronger, it was something I had to invest in anyway.
"By the way, isn't it uncomfortable lately?"
"Uncomfortable?"
After Powder lost the captain position to me.
She is working as a probationary member, not a formal member of the guard.
So there should be some discomfort, but since she doesn't seem to be having a hard time at all.
"I don't know. I haven't heard you say no to anything I said."
"Is that so?"
That's a bit unexpected.
After all, Powder was originally the captain, so even as a probationary who voluntarily stepped down from the captain position now.
It shouldn't be a position where she can be easily looked down on.
And since she's a probationary, not a formal member, and always roaming with the formal members, she shouldn't be able to lightly mess around.
"Jasmine, are you not reinforcing?"
"Master, I told you before, right? I'm weak."
Raising stats with leveling is fine, but the rest is just wasting currency.
Her expression looks a bit dissatisfied.
"...Wait a little. When I have some currency to spare, I'll think about it."
It was a lie.
I had no intention of investing currency in this trash character.
The reason I could say that is because I know about Jasmine (Swimsuit).
'There's still some time left.'
Jasmine (Swimsuit) appears as a 2-star character from the birth in the late event of the swimsuit season.
Of course, I don't know if I can get the limited swimsuit version.
That's a problem to worry about later.
Right now, investing currency in this trashy basic body is wasteful and unpleasant.
This game doesn't allow putting variations in the same party, but in other systems, they are treated as different characters.
If it's a variation, I have to invest all currency anew, so if I invest, it's better to do it on Jasmine (Swimsuit).
Jasmine (Swimsuit) has somewhat subtle performance, but since she's a dealer, it's not bad to raise her.
The 'subtle' is only compared to citizenship or something, it's not performance that can't be used.
Since she's a dealer, it's advantageous for solo farming.
"I see. I'll wait."
"Thank you for understanding, Master."
Still, since leveling is okay, I allowed that.
He put his hand on my back with a satisfied expression as if that was enough.
"With the level up, my body feels a bit hot. I'll go wash too."
"Yeah, I'll wait."
With that, we fully prepared for the next Deadly Battle.
After all, only Minty needs to tell the pattern.
That part, I'll do one-on-one training tomorrow.
"Wow. You didn't say it was stronger than last time?"
"...It ended very quickly?"
After the 1st phase ended weakly, everyone was surprised.
Minty properly applied the buff at the timing I told her, and everyone followed the strategy well.
This strategy feels really good.
"Jasmine, move half in the 3 o'clock direction from there."
"...Correct."
And when entering the most difficult 2nd phase, I started to be surprised too.
This time, the protagonist guy said he wanted to use what he studied and would personally operate the party.
I promised to intervene only when there's a wrong judgment and started this raid.
But this guy is doing much better than I expected.
"Fruity stop, save mana. Citrus catch Fruity, both get out of range. Move to maximum distance."
"Perfect."
"Next trap Groggy, attack ready."
Even choosing to minimize wing cooldown and delay appropriately.
The explanation about the current situation and next pattern is clear.
Even without me, it showed skill that can achieve Platinum or higher without spending money.
"From now on save mana. Desperation start 3, 2, 1, extreme deal."
"Wow...."
"Minty, back off from there. Attack is too overlapping, dangerous."
After handling the desperation part very cleanly and stably.
I rather laughed out loud in surprise.
...Was the one I raised not a newbie but a monster?
At least, good combat sense.
Good utilization of learned things, but quick understanding of how to apply them to maximize.
Why can't this guy admit that my character is trash performance?
"Good work. Let's collect and go back."
"Yes!"
Honestly, I thought I'd be quite surprised since it's the first time today.
Thinking that was natural, I planned to slowly raise my skill.
But if it's this good, even if I told the strategy in advance and just assisted on difficult parts, it would be fine?
...I need to change the plan.
"Was it okay today?"
"It was almost perfect."
Honestly, saying 'almost' is because my standards are too high.
Considering it's a newbie, rather than what I did as a newbie, she did better?
It's a situation much better than I expected.
"Is that so?"
"Yeah."
Honestly, I was treating it as outside power.
I didn't expect it to become power so quickly.
If I teach well, won't I produce quality that doesn't fall short of the protagonist who transmigrated?
"I worked hard on preparation. Really tough."
"...Yeah."
I did work hard.
Compared to us, relatively more time left.
I used that time only on studying the Deadly Battle based on what I taught.
Ha, I have to praise this newbie for perfect performance, but I don't know what to do to make her happy.
I can't do something like putting a big gift box and saying 'I'm the gift' and have an event.
"Hmm, this is a dilemma."
"What is it?"
"Since you did too well. I want to give a prize, but I can't think of anything."
"...If that's the case, grant a wish."
"Master, are you trying to make a strange wish?"
Of course, I know this guy wouldn't do that.
I was trying to answer jokingly.
But he quietly shook his head and said it's not a big deal, and if you really don't like it, you can refuse.
"Joke. Joke."
"Is that true?"
"Of course. Anyway, I get it. What is Master's wish?"
"...Give me a little more time. I'm not fully prepared yet."
"Eh?"
...What is not fully prepared?
S, is he trying to confess?
No, no matter what, I can't accept a confession.
T, so was he saying I can refuse?
"Jasmine?"
"Hauu...?"
Heart, damn it, shut up, because you're noisy, I can't hear anything.
