Hikaru's party is insanely strong...

Sure, their mental strength is oddly weak,

Breaking through the fourth layer really shows expert-level skill.

When fighting multiple opponents, it usually gets chaotic.

You want to gain the advantage and fight smart. It's safer and more reliable to take on a monster with multiple people rather than one person alone.

Naturally, monsters think the same way.

As a result, battles tend to become reactive and ad hoc—like a game where you can't reliably manage hate. Neither Hikaru nor Jeanne are particularly concerned with fighting unless they're in a favorable position. Of course, Hikaru can afford to be picky because she can continuously unleash dark spirit magic.

25: Anonymous from Earth

Hikaru and Jeanne are both deeply focused on only engaging in combat when the odds are in their favor. After all, the ability to do so comes from Hikaru's capacity to constantly cast dark spirit magic.

31: Anonymous from Earth

Dark Sense – Detects the opponent's location

Dark Fog – Nearly completely剥夺s the opponent's vision

Phantom Warrior – Creates illusory enemies to distract the opponent

Summon Dark Knight – A tangible summoned beast that looks identical to the illusions

With all these abilities, two powerful frontline fighters, and Hikaru herself being a capable combatant...

37: Anonymous from Earth

I've seen all the combat-type transfer students, but Hikaru's party is by far the strongest.

They might seem like they're not struggling much, but creatures like the Lizardmen are actually extremely powerful monsters.

Alex and the others concluded that "we're still not ready for the fourth layer!"

Still, the weapons made of Infernal Steel are definitely strong. Weight is power!

45: Anonymous from Earth

Honestly, the only things stronger than those would be gifts from divine beasts.

48: Anonymous from Earth

...No, when you get to even higher levels, the weapons themselves grow larger. The deeper you go, the bigger the monsters become, so naturally the weapons have to grow too. Even if you had a knife capable of slicing through anything, it still wouldn't be able to defeat a giant.

52: Anonymous from Earth

As long as humans can't grow bigger, the only option is making weapons larger...

Either way, we'll have to focus on spirit magic. It'd probably go smoothly if we gathered only photon ray users for dungeon exploration.

Spirit magic is strong. Even without the favor of spirits, simply taking proper MP increase or natural MP recovery boost can make you nearly invincible.

64: Anonymous from Earth

Both Spirit Power Up Level 5 and Natural MP Recovery Up Level 5 give you a total of 35 points, so if you see it as a favor from spirits without any drawbacks, it's actually not bad.

68: Anonymous from Earth

I've actually seen someone take both of those traits, but even then they still couldn't match the favor of spirits.

It's more than enough for a regular explorer, though.

70: Anonymous from Earth

If it originally had a potential to be used five times, at level 5 it becomes ten times that—fifty uses in total. With level 5, the natural recovery amount effectively becomes unlimited.

72: Anonymous from Earth

It seems most transfer users aren't particularly compatible with spirit magic, so there's apparently no one who starts with five uses naturally...

Hikaru, the Shade Shift from the Abyss is about to become a high-tier technique, you know.

Shade Shift seems strong in player-versus-player combat, but it was kinda dull before.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what high-tier techniques will be like.

107: Anonymous from Earth

Hikaru's using a mid-tier technique, not a high-tier one.

109: Anonymous from Earth

Was that right?

115: Anonymous from Earth

It's recent information. The idea existed from the beginning, but the Twin of Darkness finally learned from the Great Spirit that spirit techniques are categorized into lower, mid, and high tiers. High-tier techniques apparently can't be performed even by the Great Spirit at will. They're probably abilities too powerful for ordinary humans to handle.

119: Anonymous from Earth

But if it's Hikaru, then...! Hikaru would just keep using high-tier spells nonstop...!

124: Anonymous from Earth

Hikaru uses even the hidden eighth spell, Create Undead, as if it's nothing.

128: Anonymous from Earth

Create Undead is a spell that requires a catalyst, after all.

But the deeper you go, the higher the risk, so point balance becomes crucial. Hikaru hasn't accumulated any points yet, so we need to unlock some achievements to get bonuses—otherwise it'll be dangerous.

I think the achievement bonus will unlock once all spells reach mid-tier. Not sure how many points it'll grant, though.

The initial money-making idea proposed by the second wave transmigrants was “sell points to reliable first-wave transmigrants.” That’s what the three of them were trying to negotiate with Hikaru and Jeanne.

203: Anonymous from Earth

It’s like parasitism, isn’t it?

210: Anonymous from Earth

You don't get it. For the first wave—especially those like Hikaru and Jeanne who've already made some money—points are infinitely more valuable than cash. The second wave can just sell things they can cash out for or trade for points, but since we're supporting the first wave, we're suggesting a point-to-cash exchange.

211: Anonymous from Earth

You can't really exchange points, can you?

214: Anonymous from Earth

It means trading desired items for local currency. How many barrier stones you have doesn't matter—Hikaru might not know, but Jeanne will definitely go for it. In terms of a social game, points are like premium currency, and things you buy with premium currency are premium items. If you can buy them with in-game currency, you'd prioritize them above anything else.

220: Anonymous from Earth

Stop using confusing examples.

This isn't a game.

If you're going to sell it, you'd definitely sell it to another transferee rather than a foreigner from another world

Exactly. If it's another transferee, there's no problem since we can be certain it actually works.

Well, saying "I'm in trouble" wasn't ideal either, but saying "I've got a good offer" or "I need your help" wouldn't have worked either, so there's really no excuse—just bad timing on their part.

Sandra just gave up, saying "Well, it can't be helped."
