Chapter 131: Side Story — Thread About Sato Fisheries First Co., Ltd. ②

611 Future Awakened

 Already at the 19th floor, huh. Even though they're editing, that's fast

612 Future Awakened

 As expected... or rather, even smoother than expected

613 Future Awakened

 >612 This is what happens when you've got SS

614 Future Awakened

 >613 The next expedition's gonna be rough though

615 Future Awakened

 >614 ikr!

616 Future Awakened

 So, can they just blitz straight to the boss from here?

616 Future Awakened

 When the drone out front spots a monster, the other members haven't noticed it yet, right? Feels like I'm getting an edge!

617 Future Awakened

 Dual screen means double the payoff!

618 Future Awakened

 >616 That's what people call a flag

619 Future Awakened

 Editing a dual screen must be hard enough, but it's flawless

620 Future Awakened

 Straight to the teaching materials again lol

621 Future Awakened

 No but seriously, it's incredibly educational

622 Future Awakened

 Getting to see monster movements from behind is pretty rare

623 Future Awakened

 >622 Basically never

624 Future Awakened

 >622 If you tried that with a rental drone it'd get wrecked!

625 Future Awakened

 Whoa, four Ferocious Wolves!?

626 Future Awakened

 Ferocious Wolves in the house

627 Future Awakened

 Four of them isn't that rough?

628 Future Awakened

 This might be a bit dangerous

629 Future Awakened

 Starting with the usual drone, huh

630 Future Awakened

 Oho, nice timing!

631 Future Awakened

 Whoa

632 Future Awakened

 Flashlight on all four at once!

633 Future Awakened

 He was tracking everyone's line of sight!? How wide is his field of vision!?

634 Future Awakened

 Well no wonder the arrows hit

635 Future Awakened

 Kawahara-niki looks so happy!

636 Future Awakened

 Mizuhara-san's got a wry smile

637 Future Awakened

 Hmm, did they miss?

638 Future Awakened

 That's rare

639 Future Awakened

 It's too chaotic, can't really tell what's going on

640 Future Awakened

 Probably the Ferocious Wolves crashed into each other

641 Future Awakened

 It's turned into a full-on brawl all at once

642 Future Awakened

 Two vanguard vs four — isn't that tough?

643 Future Awakened

 This is bad, the vanguard's getting pushed back

644 Future Awakened

 Ikeda-san with the nice follow-up!

645 Future Awakened

 How can he fire arrows in the middle of this chaos!?

646 Future Awakened

 But it doesn't look like a fatal blow

647 Future Awakened

 The leader seems to have trouble using magic too

648 Future Awakened

 >647 If he used magic now he'd hit his own teammates

649 Future Awakened

 He's got the incantation prepped though...

650 Future Awakened

 Oh crap!

651 Future Awakened

 One broke through!?

652 Future Awakened

 Ounabara-san!?

653 Future Awakened

 Ah

654 Future Awakened

 Huh?

655 Future Awakened

 Too good!

656 Future Awakened

 Nice timing!

657 Future Awakened

 Capture Net!?

658 Future Awakened

 That's a lifesaver right there

659 Future Awakened

 SS filming his own contribution lol

660 Future Awakened

 >659 It was on camera!

661 Future Awakened

 And there's Water Lance

662 Future Awakened

 And there's Ikeda-san's Power Shot

663 Future Awakened

 Being able to film combat in two places at the same time is insane

664 Future Awakened

 Nothing's happening off-camera

665 Future Awakened

 Kawahara-niki's panicking lol

666 Future Awakened

 >665 Of course he'd panic lol

667 Future Awakened

 The brawl's over too. Kawahara-niki and Mizuhara-niki are just plain strong

668 Future Awakened

 Kawahara-niki's injured

669 Future Awakened

 >668 When the Ferocious Wolf broke through, he tried to chase it and got clawed from behind

670 Future Awakened

 We've got dual screen but I can't watch both at the same time lol

671 Future Awakened

 >670 True!

672 Future Awakened

 Good, they had potions on them

673 Future Awakened

 Still, potions are weird when you think about it

674 Future Awakened

 The dungeon itself is weird

675 Future Awakened

 With potions, who needs doctors!

676 Future Awakened

 Even so, potions are way too expensive

677 Future Awakened

 Low-grade is one thing, but mid-grade...

678 Future Awakened

 But think about it — even if you got seriously hurt, being able to heal it if you've got the money... isn't that something to be grateful for?

679 Future Awakened

 >678 Rich person thinking

680 Future Awakened

 >678 Having a way to heal but not being able to afford it... isn't that pretty hellish?

681 Future Awakened

 I get the feeling this topic's never gonna reach a conclusion...

682 Future Awakened

 Having even a tiny chance is better than zero chance

683 Future Awakened

 Even if you spent your entire fortune to get healed, what happens after you're broke...

684 Future Awakened

 >683 A mid-grade potion wouldn't cost your entire fortune

685 Future Awakened

 >684 Mid-grade is about a million yen. Well, if you work normally it's not impossible to afford

686 Future Awakened

 >684 They're probably talking about injuries and illnesses that need a high-grade potion

687 Future Awakened

 High-grade potions are rough...

688 Future Awakened

 High-grade...

689 Future Awakened

 Tens of millions...

690 Future Awakened

 Alright alright, potion talk is over! They've reached the boss room!

691 Future Awakened

 Twentieth floor reached!

692 Future Awakened

 Attribute Wolf, huh

693 Future Awakened

 Definitely wanna avoid Lightning

694 Future Awakened

 Oh, we might get to see that thing!

695 Future Awakened

 Wait, the Sato Fisheries folks might not know about that!?

696 Future Awakened

 It's coming, it's coming!

697 Future Awakened

 Can't wait!

698 Future Awakened

 Yep, they're surprised!

699 Future Awakened

 Makes sense!

700 Future Awakened

 You wouldn't normally expect to check the boss's attribute beforehand

701 Future Awakened

 Lucky! It's Flame!

702 Future Awakened

 Oho, Flame huh. This one's in the bag

703 Future Awakened

 Must be their good karma lol

704 Future Awakened

 I really want them to win!

705 Future Awakened

 Victory is guaranteed!

706 Future Awakened

 >702 People call that a flag... rest omitted

707 Future Awakened

 Flashlight as they pass each other lol

708 Future Awakened

 So you can film the boss from behind too

709 Future Awakened

 That other drone apparently doesn't make any sound

710 Future Awakened

 Both perspectives are a huge help in the boss fight too

711 Future Awakened

 I think I'll watch from the boss's perspective today!

712 Future Awakened

 >709 Wait, seriously? That means free assassinations

713 Future Awakened

 >712 Do you even have attack options?

714 Future Awakened

 Magic and arrow preemptive strike!

715 Future Awakened

 They're not holding anything back!

716 Future Awakened

 >713 Dunno

717 Future Awakened

 Oof, nice dodge

718 Future Awakened

 As expected of C-rank

719 Future Awakened

 As expected of Ikeda-san!

720 Future Awakened

 The delayed attack timing is impressive

721 Future Awakened

 Perfect coordination!

722 Future Awakened

 Water Edge grazed it too

723 Future Awakened

 The air is shimmering!?

724 Future Awakened

 The Flame Wolf is pissed!

725 Future Awakened

 Looks insanely hot...

726 Future Awakened

 Kawahara-niki goes in!

727 Future Awakened

 The greatsword's terrifying!

728 Future Awakened

 Now it's a combo with Mizuhara-san!?

729 Future Awakened

 Whoa

730 Future Awakened

 That looked like it hurt!?

731 Future Awakened

 Is he okay?

732 Future Awakened

 Kawahara-niki, nice follow-up

733 Future Awakened

 Going for a quick thrust at that moment — impressive

784 Future Awakened

 Water Ball... missed?

785 Future Awakened

 Ah, the Water Ball...

786 Future Awakened

 >784 Was that on purpose?

787 Future Awakened

 Oh, it turned into a shower!

788 Future Awakened

 Exactly as calculated!

789 Future Awakened

 Heat countermeasure!?

790 Future Awakened

 Going for the backline!?

791 Future Awakened

 Danger, danger. It's circling around!?

792 Future Awakened

 It's injured but its speed hasn't dropped at all!?

793 Future Awakened

 Such fast footwork!?

794 Future Awakened

 He dodged that!?

795 Future Awakened

 This is bad!? They can't catch up!?

796 Future Awakened

 Run!

797 Future Awakened

 Look at the right screen lol

798 Future Awakened

 Ah

799 Future Awakened

 I see where this is going

800 Future Awakened

 It tripped

801 Future Awakened

 He body-slammed it

802 Future Awakened

 It really doesn't make a sound

803 Future Awakened

 And then the Capture Net

804 Future Awakened

 Now THAT'S a perfect follow-up

805 Future Awakened

 Seriously, he sees everything

806 Future Awakened

 This would've been a disaster without SS

807 Future Awakened

 >806 Or maybe they only attempted this because they had SS?

808 Future Awakened

 Either way, this goes way beyond cameraman territory...

809 Future Awakened

 >808 What else is new

810 Future Awakened

 Long live SS!

811 Future Awakened

 All hail SS-sama!

812 Future Awakened

 Support my life too while you're at it!

813 Future Awakened

 Finishing it off with a gang beatdown lol

814 Future Awakened

 Poor Flame Wolf

815 Future Awakened

 Total victory!

816 Future Awakened

 They won!

817 Future Awakened

 Nice!

818 Future Awakened

 >815 But it's only a win because SS-san was there!

819 Future Awakened

 So Sato Fisheries First Co., Ltd. has registered the 20th floor too

820 Future Awakened

 Everyone looks so happy!

821 Future Awakened

 Of course they're happy

822 Future Awakened

 Man, the drinks were great today too lol

823 Future Awakened

 At the end, they're all thanking him together

824 Future Awakened

 As expected of working adults. Thorough right to the very end

825 Future Awakened

 I love this party

826 Future Awakened

 High approval rating

827 Future Awakened

 Same with Indomitable before — a steady, reliable party is nice too

828 Future Awakened

 Well, it's all thanks to SS's filming though

829 Future Awakened

 >828 No doubt

830 Future Awakened

 So it's over

831 Future Awakened

 To put it mildly, this was incredible

832 Future Awakened

 The dual screen was way too groundbreaking lol

833 Future Awakened

 Great work everyone!

834 Future Awakened

 Both perspectives are the best!

835 Future Awakened

 This was incredibly educational again

836 Future Awakened

 Otsukare~

837 Future Awakened

 See you next time~

838 Future Awakened

 Later~

999+1 Avid Reader

 Is it true this story's gonna stop updating for a while?

999+2 Avid Reader

 Apparently so. Word is the author's busy

999+3 Not-So-Avid Reader

 Busy or not, can't they at least write one chapter a day?

999+4 Avid Reader

 Now now, I'm sure they've got their circumstances

999+4 Avid Reader

 More importantly, are you properly following this work?

999+5 Not-So-Avid Reader

 No need to follow. I can just jump to it from my browsing history

999+6 Avid Reader

 No no, that works fine if it updates every day, but this time updates are stopping, you know

999+7 Avid Reader

 If you follow it, you get a notification when it resumes!

999+8 Not-So-Avid Reader

 I see. So that's what the follow function is for

999+9 Avid Reader

 Also, have you properly given it stars?

999+10 Not-So-Avid Reader

 I haven't. Whether I give stars or not doesn't change anything

999+11 Avid Reader

 Naive, so naive. Stars are the author's lifeblood, you know

999+12 Avid Reader

 That's right, the author's only human too. Seeing visible ratings motivates them to keep going

999+13 Not-So-Avid Reader

 Huh, is that so

999+14 Avid Reader

 You can give up to three stars. Apparently it's best to rate properly and give the appropriate amount

999+15 Not-So-Avid Reader

 Just one star at first should be fine. If you enjoy reading it, add more stars later

999+16 Avid Reader

 Naive, so naive. You clearly don't know how the ranking system works

999+17 Not-So-Avid Reader

 The ranking system?

999+18 Avid Reader

 These works are ranked by the number of stars, you see

999+19 Avid Reader

 Right, right, and apparently the stars that get reflected in the rankings are determined by the number of stars you give at the very beginning

999+20 Not-So-Avid Reader

 Huh, so if you give one star at first and add two more later, it doesn't get reflected in the rankings

999+21 Avid Reader

 You catch on quick

999+22 Avid Reader

 Of course, giving stars without even reading is against the rules, but if you think "this is interesting" or "I want to read more," giving three stars right from the start really boosts the author's motivation

999+23 Not-So-Avid Reader

 Being an author seems pretty tough too

999+24 Avid Reader

 It is. But without readers, the author can't keep going either

999+25 Avid Reader

 That's exactly why we should aim for a relationship where the author provides interesting stories, and the readers properly rate them

999+26 Not-So-Avid Reader

 Well, I was somewhat entertained, so I guess I'll give it a follow and some stars

999+27 Avid Reader

 If you find other works you like, make sure to follow and star those too

999+28 Avid Reader

 If we all rate properly, even more interesting works will be born

999+29 Not-So-Avid Reader

 Ah, my hand slipped and I only gave one star...

999+30 Avid Reader

 That's...
