99 He’s an idiot, so I have to stay sharp.

99 He’s an idiot, so I have to stay sharp.

I am the body.

Name remains unknown.

This time, I’d like you to listen to my complaints about the information specialist.

He’s an idiot.

Recently, he suggested, “Let’s shoot the thread from our rear end!” Tried it—resulted in an unexpected force, the thread shot out violently, and plunged straight into the magma.

Almost set me on fire.

If I hadn’t severed the thread instantly, it would’ve been a full-blown inferno.

So, every time, he comes up with nonsense ideas, ends up in trouble, and I have to clean up the mess.

I’ve never succeeded by following his suggestions.

Then again, I’m just as eager to act on them every time—so I’m not blameless either.

Can’t he come up with something more sensible?

It’s not hard to see what’s wrong with that idea, is it?

Why isn’t the brains type thinking things through properly?

Are you stupid?

That’s right, you are stupid.

So the body type has to be reliable.

After all, my actions directly determine my survival.

Body type, body type.

What about the information type?

Can’t we attach a cursed eye to the telescope?

!? Are you a genius?

Hehehe. Yes, I was a genius.

Seriously? I was a genius? If I’m a genius, then anything goes, right?

Exactly. A cursed eye activated at a distance via telescope—insane, isn’t it?

Oh no. That’s too dangerous. The possibilities are endless.

So let’s go find prey!

Hya-ha-ha!

I am the information type.

Name still unknown.

Simultaneous activation of telescope and cursed eye failed.

Mm.

If we could do that, it’d be cheating. No choice but to accept it.

The constant activation of the telescope has brought it to Level 5.

Compared to Level 1, the range and magnification have increased significantly.

If the cursed eye could be combined with it, long-range attacks would be feasible—though that remains impossible.

Still, the cursed eye proves highly effective.

As long as MP remains sufficient, it is used continuously, now reaching Level 3.

Progression is slow.

Yet during mid-tier clearance, MP was consistently abundant—ideal timing.

Noted during cursed eye activation: the field of view remains unchanged.

Simultaneous activation with the telescope failed, but other visual enhancements still apply precisely.

If the field of view remains stable during activation, there is no need to retain unactivated eyes.

This opens the possibility of simultaneously deploying eight cursed eyes—pure potential.

Additionally, it appears cursed eyes cannot be augmented with elemental attributes.

Attempted with poison attack—no effect.

Regrettable.

Still, this is similar to long-range vision; if it were possible, it would be overly exploitative.

If my current extreme poison were applied to a cursed eye, it would surpass even the infamous "Eye of Death" capable of killing with a glance.

Even the current ability—damage plus debilitation—is already overpowered. Wanting more would be excessive.

Then, I considered whether cursed eyes could be simultaneously deployed using eight eyes at once. This is possible.

However, the effect remains unchanged.

Eight eyes should logically yield eightfold power, but that is not how it works.

Still, simultaneous deployment proves quite useful with long-range vision.

Can isolate and magnify separate locations. Depending on usage, simultaneous deployment might be possible.

Anyway, shifting topics—about the body specialist.

That guy’s an idiot.

Recently, I suggested trying to fire thread from my backside to see if I could unlock the ejection skill. He said, “Yeah, that’s great—awesome! Let’s do it right now!” and immediately fired the thread.

At magma.

He claimed, “Flew farther than expected,” but there was no need to launch it directly into magma.

Naturally, the thread was instantly incinerated.

I panicked when flames started spreading up the thread like a fuse.

Only because the body specialist severed the thread at the last moment did I avoid another burning rear end.

And so, that’s how he delivers results—off the mark, to be precise.

Or rather, off the bottom.

Honestly, no matter how brilliant my proposal, if the body specialist is incompetent, there’s nothing I can do.

You’d think that’d be obvious, wouldn’t it?

Only moves the body, so the mind’s turned into a musclehead?

Are you an idiot?

You really are an idiot.

Which means I, the information specialist, must step up.

After all, my orders directly determine my survival.

Information specialist. Information specialist.

What’s with you, body specialist?

Saw a monster through the scope.

Seriously? Not in the detection range yet.

Heh heh. Information specialist, your relevance is fading.

Drop it, body specialist. If you aim to surpass me, you’ll need at least a hundred more observations.

Hahaha, you can say that only while you still can! Just wait, clean your neck and prepare.

Hmph. Even if that moment never comes, it matters not. Come up here, and show me what you’ve got—on this distant peak!

Hehehe.

Kukuku.

So, what now?

Naturally. I’ll hunt.

Aiyay! Come on, you bastards! Battle readiness!

Hyaah!
