Manuke FPS Chapter 11

*Knock Knock*

“Ashley, are you up yet?”

“Yes, Remi-senpai Preparing for our departure will take a bit of time.”

“I see, so, how was it?”

“Black-san? He registered himself as an adventurer without problem… Perhaps I’m just a bit hesitant to say…”

I went through the events that occurred at the General Guild while Black-san was registering as an adventurer to Remi-senpai Remi-senpai was also concerned about the information that showed up during the biometric information registration.

“Fumu, Ashley, you don’t have to accompany the investigation group tomorrow, instead….”

I went back to the room after dinner at the inn, and turned back to the TSS, the Tactical Support System. In order to continue work as an adventurer in this strange world, It all boils down to whether or not the VMB system will work or not, and I must ascertain this swiftly.

“As usual, Management news and email are impossible, and logout as well. Avatar customization is possible, I verified this back in Mairal Village.”

After falling into this strange world, and lodging in this place which I had visited for the first time, I had a strong feeling to urinate and went into a frenzy. [Must pee.] It’s because I don’t know how to take off the Power Suit!

It was a one-piece suit, and I couldn’t find either a zipper or eject button. There was no feeling to urinate within the game, so there was no reason to have to take off something you don’t have to. I reeled and twisted, turned and squirmed, all the while navigating the TSS to the Avatar Customization menu.

Avatar Customization was a feature allowing the changing of the design of the Power Suit. A player could also change the avatar’s hair or clothes, and there were even costumes distributed during events or sold as paid items, so it was not only limited to the Power Suit.
And wearing no underwear was possible too. You could say that this feature was the only reason I succeeded in taking off the power suit, and I, a 24-year-old male, avoided disgrace.

“Modification of equipment and supplement of ammunition should be possible…. but it ends there?”

I planned on replenishing my ammunition and changing out my secondary in order for tomorrow’s plans. Compared to the M1911A1. the ‘FN Five-seveN ‘ had more bullets per magazine; The M1911A1 only had 7, whereas the Five-seveN had 20. It is an excellent handgun with superior penetration, using a 7x28mm bullet. I selected the Five-seveN and three magazines, and particles of light gathered before me. They congregated into a single point, and when the light faded, a black supply box appeared in it’s place.

“The appearance of the supply box and the whole particle shenanigans didn’t change from inside the game.”

When I opened the box, there laid a Five-seveN and the 3 magazines I had chosen. I retrieved the MP5A4 and the M1911A1, which I substituted for the original contents which I took out. I closed the box, and it disappeared with dispersing particles of light that dissipated, as if nothing had happened in that spot prior to me being here.

From the TSS, I verified the items and equipment was all in order through the inventory, and there they were, added into the item-box like place.

“Good, returning to the inventory.. Now that I’ve confirmed a way to replenish ammo, today we’re sleeping in~”

I removed all of my equipment and, through the Avatar Customization menu, stripped down to my underwear and dived into my bed, completing the night of day two in this world.

*Knock Knock*

“Customer-san, are you awake?”
What time is it? Probably morning… This was the voice of Milana’s landlady.

“Hai, I’m up”

“Good morning, Black-sama. Hot water and a washcloth is available by the bucket near the barrel, and after you finish washing, you should eat breakfast because it is already 7:00.”

“Thank you, I’ll go wash my face and then eat.”

Since there was already hot water, I went along with it and washed my face, and there was delicious food at this inn, and the service was impeccable, I am lucky that Remi recommended this place. I intend to continue my operations based here, buying equipment and handling daily necessities and requests in various ways, but the money I have on hand is not reliable, so I will probably have Milana introduce me to some good shops later.

Breakfast had a light morning-specific menu. The standard in this world was two meals, one in the morning, and one in the evening. Though the amount in breakfast was rather… plentiful. I wasn’t familiar with the diet and thought this, enjoying the relaxing after-meal atmosphere, until Ashley came in from the front.

“Good morning, Ashley. Aren’t you leaving for Mairal Village today?”

“Morning, Black-san. You’re starting to speak Orlando very well, and it’s much more natural too. Your learning speed is really amazing.”

Oh, that is because I continue to hear the words in both Orlando and the translated sentences, which are also displayed in deep blue.

“Thank you, though I might be a bit awkward and clumsy, and if it does not inconvenience you too much, would you go shopping for swords with me?”

“Is that so. I am accompanying an investigation committee to Mairal Village, but there is a two day rest because the apprentices need to rest. So, what are your plans for today, Black-san?” [GUYS, HE DID IT!]

“Plans..? Well, I’m probably going to buy some daily necessities and some equipment for when I go take requests.”

“Is that so, do you want to go together? This city is very large, and by the time you find the shop selling the things you want, it will already be dark. I will guide you to the shops you want to find.”

“Thank you, I am grateful for your help. Then, I will go to my room to prepare.”
I immediately went back to the room and changed into the Marine Corps military jacket and pants through the avatar customization menu. I included the Five-seveN in a holster, and a magazine belt with the magazines inside, before leaving to shop with Ashley.

“So, what do you want to go buy first?”

Today Ashley, rather than her leather armor, was wearing a one piece turtleneck dress with a leather belt and pants. Ah, was this a date? No, no, this is probably different. Maybe.

“Well, I want to buy daily necessities first, then look for equipment.”

“Yes, let’s go to the convenience store first, then. The manager’s a nice Dwarf Lady.”

After she said this, I was guided to the convenience store. Perhaps the aunt thought we were preparing to live together? Perhaps that is why her face was flushed a deep red, as was the man selling us and other adventurers skewers of mysterious meat at a street-side stall that was spit-roasted. This was the perfect date…  [0]

And the store we were currently at sold tools to adventurers. There was a lot of adventurers in the shop, which was quite large. People were negotiating and inquiring about the price of commodities.

“What kind of tools do you want to buy?”

“I need tools for removing proof of suppression and subjugation and bag for them. When you

go to Mairal village, I’ll need one. Yours was pretty well designed, it fit into the armor. Though, the size doesn’t really matter.”

“Eh? A tool bag? Can Black-san use it?”

“Eh?”

“Eh?”

involuntarily said ‘Eh?’. Though Ashley also made the same noise. so it seems it’s about the bag. So did I need some skill to use it?

“I’m sorry Ashley, I haven’t used one up until this point, but are there any skills necessary for using the tool bag?”

When she heard this she seemed hesitant to say something, and averted her eyes, and seemed puzzled.

“Oi Oi, Nii-chan, you came to an adventurer’s store and you don’t know how to use a tool bag?”

While waiting for a reply from Ashley I heard a deep voice from behind. When I looked back to find the source of the voice, there was a tall creature, about 2m in height, with what looked like fake cat ears on it’s head. No… they had to be attached. There was a rat-faced guy and raccoon-like guy that followed behind him. It was probably an adventurer party.

FN Five-seveN

This handgun was developed by FN in Belgium, with a 20-round magazine utilizing 5.7x28mm ammunition, with excellent penetration.

[0] preparation of living together in the bottom of the aunt. Why google, WHY. Also, HE DID IT GUYS!
