Thinking that there was no information about Rosalia anyway, he went to ask an informant, and found something surprising in the information. A well-known player named Silica came to this floor, and there seemed to be someone named Rosalia among the players who teamed up with Silica.
It was then that I first learned that Silica player was a celebrity, but what surprised me even more was that he was a "tamer" like me.
And according to the man, Rosalia is the kind of criminal player who will hunt down the players she targets. He must have regarded Silica, a celebrity and "animal tamer", as a suitable prey.
If you can get in touch with Silica, you might be able to get information about Rosalia, or meet Rosalia herself. Although it's not a mission, you might be able to hear news about other "tamers."
With this thought in mind, Lilan and I stepped into the Lost Forest to the north of the thirty-fifth floor. This forest is the best place for intermediate players who are not in the strategy group to level up and find items. But for Lelan and me, there are more important memories here.
"It was here, in the forest where I met Lilan."
My voice made Lilan's face look calm.
"That's right. I met you here last December. After all, it's still January 5th. We've only known each other this long."
When I met Lilan, it was a series of surprises. A dragon I had never seen before suddenly appeared, and when it assumed a fighting stance, it did nothing. If you give me props, it will evolve, and I will say that you will become my "darling", and then I will become the "tamer"...
"Anyway, when I met this guy, a lot of unexpected things happened, and I don't understand why." Even so, he did not regret throwing rare props at Lilan or becoming a "tamer".
"I never expected that such a reliable person would join us. Speaking of which, Lilan, where is your memory? Did you remember anything?"
The wolf dragon next to him shook his head and strode forward. If you pay attention to its face, you'll see a troubled expression that reminds you of a cloudy sky.
"Never. I don't remember anything important. Her appearance changed twice, she became stronger...but the memory made no progress at all. If I have to say something, it is that every time I evolve, I understand that you are What can I say...that's what it feels like.
"What? If you can understand what we say, you can understand the classics, sword skills, etc."
"Ah. I don't know why, but I'm beginning to understand this. Maybe it's because I live with you, but... I seem to have some important memories.
Lilan speaks fluently and always pretends to understand our words and conversations before speaking, but in the end, Lilan is a resident of this world and nothing more than an NPC. Just being an NPC means it's an AI, but I can only assume this guy would think and speak for himself as if he had a heart.
The AI in this world originally reacts according to multiple set modes. Because of this, it can speak like a living heart. But originally, they were just talking, without thought or heart. Therefore, Flashlight Asuna’s statement at the end of December that “the inhabitants of this world have no hearts” is correct.
Lilan should be just one of them, but what he thinks, worries, and says is as if he really means it. I can only assume they were having conversations after understanding our hearts and words.
"I've been thinking about this question since Lilan joined me, but when will I find the answer?" And what exactly is Lilan's lost memory? There are so many things that really bother me and I really want to clear them up.
"Well, I'm also very curious about your memory, so even if you find it in the end... it doesn't matter if you die, just run away."
"What are you talking about? I won't die
"No, you also have life force. If you use it up, you will die. It seems that if you use it in three days, you can be brought back to life."
"Although I said I would never die. Did you find that information from the informant before? You seemed to be reading something interesting.
"That's correct." When I was looking for information on Rosalia, the first thing that caught my eye was the information on "Animal Tamer", and I read it with all my concentration. Then I discovered that I could get a "familiar" resurrection item called Pneuma Flower in the Memory Hill on the 47th floor.
When I told him this, Lilan nodded in agreement.
"I understand. If so, shouldn't that item be in your possession? There's no guarantee that nothing will happen to me in the future.
"Yes. The battle will be more intense in the future... Just in case she is killed, let's go there after putting Rosalia in prison. And that place... Shino seems to be very happy. It's a place
"What. What is that..."
At this moment, Lilan stopped talking and turned her face to the depths of the forest. His expression was close to inquiring.
"What's wrong, Lilan?"
"...I feel the breath coming from the depths of the forest. You are the same player. Moreover, I also feel the presence of monsters like me. There is 1 player and 3 monsters. And the monsters seem to be quite strong. "
Looking at the report that seemed to use the enemy search skill, I couldn't help but widen my eyes, but then I realized that now was not the time. The number of monsters is 3 and the number of players is 1. It doesn't matter if the monster is a small person, but if the monster's presence is strong, the enemy the player encounters is the strongest enemy on this level, the Drunken Ape.
"Isn't that dangerous!?"
"Must. Ride on my back, Kirito. If you don't want your players to die, we can help! ...Probably the orange players!"
"Whether he is a bad person, you can check later! I will help you first!"
"I jumped on Lilan's back." In the BOSS battle, all you need to do is fill the "Human-Dragon Gauge", but since this is just a field, you don't need to charge the "Human-Dragon Gauge". As soon as she got on Lilan's back and grabbed him tightly, Lilan kicked the ground and started running, exercising her muscles vigorously.
A roar of wind rang out in my ears, and my body trembled violently. If you look around you will see many big trees passing by. Lilan's running speed is countless times faster than the player's sprint, and her body is light. Proof of this is that I haven't had a conflict with my own mind since that long time ago.
Just when he felt like he was on a roller coaster ride in the real world, Lelan raised her voice.
"I found you, Kirito! There are three monkeys 100 meters in front, and there is a player behind! It looks like the situation is very dangerous!"
I braved the wind as instructed and looked forward, and sure enough, as Lilan said, I saw three drunk apes and a player.
The player seemed to be cornered and sat motionless on the ground. And, the Drunk Ape is trying to crush the players with the club in his hand. I can do it as it is.
"Keep running and blow them away with your breath!!"
When I instinctively issued the command, Lilan opened her mouth wide, sprayed flames from deep inside her body, and fired three fireballs. Three fireballs pierced the air at extremely fast speeds and exploded on Drunken Ape's back.
The three-headed apes were about to attack the player who had just trapped them, but were swallowed up by explosive flames and blown into polygonal fragments. Almost immediately after that, Lilan came to the player who was attacked by the monkey. I immediately jumped out of Lilan and approached the player who was still sitting on the ground.
——A girl wearing yellow armor, her light brown hair tied into short ponytails with red hairpins, and brown eyes.
The player who saved me ignored me, grabbed the light blue feather that fell on the ground, and burst into tears. It was safe for the time being, but there was no doubt that something was wrong.
"What happened to those feathers?"
The girl replied softly, sobbing.
"...Pina. She is my dear...friend..."
"Pina" is probably this girl's partner...in other words, an "acquaintance." This girl is the "Animal Tamer". And that "acquaintance" was probably killed by those drunken apes.
If Lilan had attacked earlier, no, if I had acted earlier and given instructions to Lilan earlier, this would not have happened. paddy.
"I'm sorry, I can't help your friend..."
“No, I was an idiot, I thought I could walk through the forest alone…Pina…
The girl shook her head and then turned to me and Lilan. Her face was full of tears.
"Thank you for helping me..."
"But...your dependents..."
At this moment, I heard a "voice" from Lilan who was standing behind me.
"Kirito, the feathers on that person... can't you just use that one?"
"what is that?"
"The familiar" resurrection item you mentioned. Now it's time to use it
"At that time, I was shocked." Yes, if you get a "familiar" resurrection item from the informant and use it on this girl, you might be able to revive her "familiar". Thinking of this, I knelt in front of the girl.
"Does that feather have a set item name?"
The girl made an expression as if she had realized something, and tapped the feather in her hand with her index finger. A small window rose from the wing, revealing a name. "Pina's Heart" is the symbol of Pina, the girl's "familiar".
Seeing Pina's heart word, the girl burst into tears again, panicked, and screamed again.
"Don't cry. If you still have something in your heart, you still have a chance to be resurrected."
The girl raised her head slightly, met my eyes, and then moved the corners of her mouth slightly.
"real"
"Ah. The spirit flower in the deepest part of the wild maze called the Memory Hill on the 47th floor is a familiar item that can be used to resurrect the familiar. That's right."
The girl's face suddenly lit up. As I thought this, I immediately returned to normal and my shoulders slumped.
"Floor 47...at my level, you can't reach it..."
I unconsciously crossed my arms and let out a slight groan.
According to those information, on the 47th floor of the Memory Hill, there seems to be a "familiar" resurrection item called the Spirit Flower. It seems that the Spirit Flower will not appear unless a trainer is sent.
Just when I was thinking this, Lilan's "voice" sounded in my mind.
"Hey Kirito. What are you worried about? You are a "tamer". Maybe we can bring some spiritual flowers to replace this girl."
"Ah, no, no." Think about it, I'm the "animal tamer." Although he says he has Lelan, he sometimes forgets that he is the "tamer." Maybe it's because I've always been a solo player.
"Okay. I'll take your place. I'm also an "animal tamer", so I can go to the 47th floor to cause an incident. Bring it back to you -"
"Wait, Kirito"
"Lilan interrupted me again, so I stopped talking."
