Precia fell into deep thought as she watched Ian fall asleep.

Various disorganized thoughts began to float in my head.

It all started with the persistent face of Ian, who had been following her training diligently prior to the subjugation battle.

I remembered how he burned his fighting spirit without giving up even though he was pushed to the limit of what he could endure.

What followed was a dignified figure who stood up to the monster without backing down in a subjugation battle that could put his life at risk. It was noticeable that his skills were rapidly improving as he experienced actual combat.

And last.

I thought of Ian, who couldn’t overcome the sense of entitlement he felt toward Gilbert, and ran away despite her attempts to dissuade him, eventually fainting after receiving help from that bastard.

Frecia repeatedly emphasized to Ian that the most important thing when going into battle is not to lose your cool.

I also did not forget to say that no matter how excellent a Colossus Knight is with his piloting skills, the moment he loses his composure, he can be defeated by even a third-rate pilot.

However, Ian seemed to have forgotten all of her advice, throwing away his cool-headed thinking and launching an onslaught without thinking back. In reality, it was an onslaught to put it nicely, but it was an extremely reckless charge.

If Gilbert hadn’t thought about saving Ian, it was clear that he wouldn’t have been able to sleep with such a carefree face.

Precia could not hide her complicated feelings. While it was a relief that Ian came to his senses safely, the sight of him innocently solving the problem was not easily forgotten.

Is that the solution?

Presia tried to understand Ian.

If getting out of trouble can be described as wit, Ian used his wits to turn the public opinion that would have been against him against him.

He built his image from a rebellious squire who did not follow his superiors’ orders to a passionate knight who could not stand the danger of his colleagues.

Considering that most of the human world revolves around politics, Ian clearly made the best choice.

You don’t have to experience it to know that if he had remained as a person who disobeyed orders, his future actions would have been greatly hindered.

Disobeying orders in a wartime situation was a serious matter that could result in up to summary punishment.

But Precia could not fully accept it.

There was no disagreement that Ian’s judgment was the right one. Usually, hiding facts that were unfavorable to oneself was also a natural act.

However, it was difficult to look at Ian’s actions in a positive light from the realm of emotion rather than reason. At the very least, he shouldn’t have been bragging about what he did.

It was right for him to at least feel ashamed of his actions. It was wrong for her, who had been watching everything, to show herself so carefree.

My head hurts.

The more I thought about it, the more complicated it felt, rather than being organized.

I thought that useless thoughts were only making things more complicated in my head.

Although I was somewhat disappointed with Ian, he was still an inexperienced contractor. As a super artificial spirit, it was clear that she could become an excellent contractor if she was guided well.

At that point, Precia put aside her thoughts about Ian and brought up another topic that made her head hurt.

Is that fucking guy going to be okay?

Gilbert, who had been calling me a fool until now, was starting to get a little worried.

I don’t know what characteristic skills he had, but the image of him handling himself perfectly after signing a formal contract was imprinted in Presia’s mind like an imprint.

Moving the giant spirit soldier in unison with him was a unique feeling she had never experienced even in all her years. It wasn’t a bad feeling for her, who had always led the giant knights, to be turned around and assist her.

What are you thinking?

Presia hastily erased the thought that had just occurred to her.

I felt somewhat embarrassed.

Anyway, I decided to refrain from calling Gilbert a son of a bitch now. The noble will he showed should not be disparaged as a fool.

Frecia’s belief was that human nature remains unchanged, but Gilbert lowered the hurdle.

Maybe the premise was wrong. Since there can be no absolutes in this world, I wondered if human nature could change if there was some strong momentum.

Even if that wasn’t the case, Gilbert’s human nature could have been good.

It didn’t really matter which one was true.

Pressia listened to Ian’s snoring and continued thinking about Gilbert.

***

The floating spirit suddenly returned. Perhaps it was because I was accompanied by terrible pain that I came to my senses.

Gilbert opened his wet eyes and looked around. First of all, it seemed like he wasn’t dead.

When he felt a tearing pain every time he took a breath, Gilbert brought his eyebrows together and frowned slightly. I didn’t check my physical condition exactly, but I could tell that it was the worst.

First, he brought up the message window that was hidden from view. The situation was so urgent that I had no time to check, but the system mesh window was the indicator that could most objectively judge the current situation.

His biggest strength was being able to use the system, so he needed to check all the messages he had overlooked.

The first thing Gilbert looked at was the system message he saw immediately after using the characteristic skill. The content was that the special conditions for the characteristic skills created solely for fun were confirmed.

Looking through the message, it seemed that the special conditions meant whether or not the skill limit breakthrough was activated, whether or not the skill White Beast was acquired, and finally, the match rate with the super artificial spirit Precia.

In some ways, it was a very flimsy special condition, but considering that when Gilbert set the characteristic skills, it was only for fun, it was hard to see it as a forced setting.

Gilbert opened the skill window and looked at the description of the characteristic skills in detail.

The only thing that changed from before was that special conditions were confirmed and there were high-level skills.

My guess was that higher skills could be unlocked when all conditions were met, but even this wasn’t certain. Since everything other than the statement that there was a high-level skill was plastered with question marks, all that could be known was what the eye could see.

This was also the case for skillless unemployed people. Unemployment, a growth skill, seemed to have a higher level skill as well as characteristic skills.

As with characteristic skills, it was unknown what conditions must be met to unlock it.

Damn it. There’s nothing to know.

Gilbert shook his head and checked the next message.

Although it wasn’t what I wanted, I was able to achieve the achievement of becoming a monster ogre slayer thanks to defeating the monster ogre alone.

In addition, by fighting against the ogre alone to buy time for the punitive force to retreat, his reputation rose rapidly, and he was able to acquire an enemy known as the Noble Spirit.

In particular, the monster Ogre Slayer was a very difficult achievement to achieve among rare achievements, so its possession effect was also ranked high. This achievement alone was worth the reward of subduing the monster Ogre.

After checking the achievement acquisition message regarding the monster Ogre Slayer, Gilbert’s expression hardened as he looked at the next message. I tried my best to ignore it, but this message wasn’t something that could be resolved by ignoring it.

[The mana load is seriously damaged because the limit has been exceeded.]

Serious damage to Mana Road.

For Gilbard, this message was very painful.

In the era of fighting only with cold weapons before the advent of the Giant God Soldier, one of the most important things for knights was the Mana Rod. It was no exaggeration to say that it was because of the existence of this Mana Rod that knights were able to produce superhuman strength that was different from that of ordinary people.

However, when he saw the message window saying that the important Mana Road had been seriously damaged, Gilbert became dizzy.

There was a mountain of work to do in the future, and I had to prevent the Mana Rod from being damaged at all costs. Syncing by boarding a giant god soldier was only possible when the mana load was normal.

For Gilbert, who had a grand dream of returning to the original world, being a Mana Rod shooter was essential.

He looked at the last message window with a nervous expression. With his Mana Road severely damaged, this was all Gilbert could cling to.

[You reach your physical limit and your super regenerative ability awakens.]

Awakening of super regenerative ability.

This was a unique feature that had not been seen in Tactical Combat.

Super Regeneration was the final tech tree of recovery skills that could be obtained when the recovery skills were awakened or special conditions were met. Gilbert was also able to gain super regeneration ability as an additional effect while acquiring the skill Hundreds of skills.

However, even though Gilbert had been playing Tactical Combat for a long time, he had never heard of the awakening of super regeneration. It was strange that there was an awakening even though super regeneration itself was already the final skill.

Of course, this was reality, not a game world. It was foolish to blindly trust the settings in the game when the system could use abnormal abilities.

What is the level of skill that emerges when this super regeneration awakens?

Gilbert opened the skill window with reverence.

Rating: ??

Description: Brave warriors. Raise your glass!

effect:

– Ultra-regenerative efficiency is maximized

As ultra-regeneration efficiency is maximized, regeneration power and speed can be increased by limiting the regeneration area.

– When a feast is declared after the battle is over, the efficiency of super regeneration increases dramatically.

– ??? (Conditions not met.)

Gilbert couldn’t help but shake his hands as he watched Einherjar’s Feast skill flashing in golden light.

This was a skill I could confidently say was greater than any other skill I had acquired so far. It was very attractive to not only maximize the efficiency of super-regeneration, but also to increase regeneration power and speed by limiting the regeneration area.

In addition, if a banquet was declared after the battle was over, the efficiency of this super regeneration was boosted once more. I’m still not sure what it means to declare a feast, but I got some hints from Einherjar’s feast skill.

Gilbert immediately straightened his posture and used Eihejar’s Feast. After fixing the range of super regeneration with the damaged mana rod, I gently closed my eyes.

The mana load I could feel was so messed up that it would be a shame to say it was miserable. Thanks to the super regeneration skill, he was slowly regenerating, but it was not so good that he had to recuperate for several months.

However, when the range of super regeneration was limited to the mana load, the recovery speed increased dramatically. It felt like it was more than ten times faster than before.

However, other parts except the mana rod were not affected by super regeneration, but the thing that was urgent now was the mana rod.

Gilbert sank within himself and began to focus all his attention on healing the Mana Rod.
