"Would you be willing to meet my father?"
"Not a chance."
"I'll pay double the usual amount."
"No deal. I won't accept even if you pay me a hundred times the amount."
"Why?!!"
"Firstly, I will not discuss the possibility of an alternative path you can take with your father who evidently thinks that there is no such thing. Secondly, I do not want to meet him."
"You know my father?"
"I know Oden Bloodborne. And well enough to know that trying to convince him that this alternate path exists you would need to have unshakable evidence."
"Is there nothing you can do?"
"Nothing at all."
"I see, I will return once I've sorted this out."
"I'd rather you didn't but as a paying customer, you are free to book the sanguine VR program as many times as you want to."
Kent looks a little surprised at my words but before anything else can happen I exit the VR room we are in and leave my VR capsule.
That's for making me lose to that bear, Navi.
You really think he'll go somewhere else? Where? I know for certain that master Oden will try to kill anyone who says that there is an alternate path for Kent to walk. My VR program is the best environment to improve skills related to the sanguine swordsmen so regardless of how nice someone else tells him, they won't be able to do better.
The only known form of training for the sanguine boost and also the other skills is to keep using them. Nothing fancy or methodical just keep using it until it levels up.
Why else is there no one currently alive who has managed to reach level ten of the sanguine boost and caused the skill to evolve?
Would you call someone who can nearly double all their stats during a fight weak? Sanguine swordsmen are capable of fighting opponents above their level and that's what most of them are feared for.
He never outright told me about his skills but he got his name for creating one that made him famous.
No, the founder named his family blood born, master Oden named himself bloodborne. He was very particular about that and had me write it ten thousand times before I was allowed to start my training.
He doesn't make jokes and I don't think it was an accident. Isn't it custom to create a new family name based on one's strongest skill?
Maybe something that is transferred by blood like a bloodborne disease? He never talks about it so it's probably quite a strong skill that he wants to keep secret.
I don't know much about that either. However, it's true that I have never seen him join a dungeon delve with people of his level. He only brought me to a dungeon three times and that was for me to train.
That might not be too bad of an idea.
Hmm, I'm feeling a little peckish but it's not yet time for dinner. Should I go out and get a snack.
But it's not time for dinner yet. I wouldn't want to stress Pata out by asking him to cook for me.
Yes, why?
Monica? I question Navi as I walk to the employee dining hall.
Oh, what kind of a monster is she if you don't mind me asking.
<... I guess it's fine to tell you. She's a golem type. As such, she needs to expend mp for everything she does including all movements. Her stamina is basically her mp.>
Wow, what happens if she runs out?
Tell me about it, suddenly freezing up in the middle of the fight is everyone's worst nightmare. But what training is she doing in the dining hall?
I enter the dining hall and see the girl in question eating what looks to be pancakes with a soured expression. She looks like someone killed her parents.
