The Capitalist Streaming of a Freeloading Hero
Episode 55
Constellation’s Game [Lyka]
The moment I saw the summon I obtained after completing the second synthesis, my emotions could be expressed in one line.
How is it that not a single normal summon comes out?
〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓
Void Doll Bani
Classification: Summon
Level Restriction: None
Grade: Unique
Tier: 6T
Race: Magic Doll
Level: 44
Stats
Attack Power – 380
Defense – 796
Health – 5273
…Omitted…
* Mana Required for Summoning
In Combat – 0.15/s
Out of Combat – 0/s
* Unique Ability
-It’s Dangerous Outside the Bed (Passive)
When Bani doesn’t move from its position for more than 3 seconds, it enters ‘Absolute Sloth’ state.
Bani’s physical/magical defense increases by 500%, and it cannot be knocked back.
Inflicts ‘Lethargy’ curse on enemies within a 10m radius. (Movement speed/Attack speed reduced by 40%)
A creature born from the combination of Anguish Specter’s ‘void’ and old miscellaneous items.
It has a terrible sense of skepticism about life and regrets being born.
Extremely lazy, but the efficiency it developed to avoid moving is unparalleled.
* This is a class-exclusive summon. Classes other than ‘Seraphists’ cannot summon it.
* This summon is bound to the account. It cannot be transferred to other players.
* Due to excessive level difference with the player, loyalty is greatly reduced.
Current Loyalty: 50
〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓
Following the uselessly arrogant gluttonous baby dragon, now a nihilistic middle-school syndrome lazy rabbit doll.
You might ask if I’m thinking too negatively, but those catastrophic descriptors contained not a single lie.
What do I mean by that?
Just watch for a brief moment… and you’ll quickly understand what I mean.
Kieeeee―!
Lumen Ghosts appeared, tearing through the darkness of the abandoned mine, charging with fierce momentum.
A normal summon would try to protect its master, or at least pretend to start fighting.
But this pitch-black rabbit doll summoned before me only glanced at its master with mismatched button eyes.
– Ah… to exist is… suffering…
Like a flowing liquid, Bani just collapsed onto the floor.
“…What did you do that you’re lying down again?”
– Bani breathed. Bani worked.
“Then what are you planning to do now?”
– Bani sleeps. No more labor is refused.
“….”
The creature went even further, covering its eyes with ears that had cotton stuffing sticking out.
Though its loyalty was only 50, this behavior definitely couldn’t be explained by that alone.
“Hyung-nim! You’re okay, right?”
Even Leo asked with worried eyes, concerned about my mental state.
“Sigh.”
All I could do after letting out a short sigh was kick this lazy summon’s butt.
“Fine. Go sleep forever.”
Thwack-
And this trash rabbit flew weakly and crashed right into the middle of the monster horde.
– My cotton…! My precious internal organs…!
But what made me angry wasn’t
simply because this guy was a troublemaker who wouldn’t listen, because it was ‘useless.’
[Conditions have been met.]
[Passive skill ‘It’s Dangerous Outside the Bed’ activates.]
Despite being such an absurd creature that acts like trash…
[Target: Bani enters ‘Absolute Sloth’ state.]
Surprisingly, this guy was quite helpful in combat.
[Summon ‘Bani’s’ physical/magical defense increases by 500%.]
[Based on summon ‘Bani,’ enemies within a 10m radius have their movement speed and attack speed reduced by 40%.]
[When ‘Bani’ falls into incapacitated state or moves even slightly, ‘Absolute Sloth’ state is canceled.]
So ‘Bani’s’ position was a ‘tank’ with quite high-performance area debuffs.
The reason I was angry at this guy was…
‘If it just moved a bit more actively, the unique ability itself is really S-grade passive…’
Along with that energy-draining, drooping voice, it was because the unique ability given to this creature was too precious to waste.
‘No, both the physical/magical defense increase and the debuff values. Does it make sense that this can only be used like this?’
If I had to find an advantage to this personality… the extremely small amount of mana consumed when summoning.
└ lol the room host must be dizzy lol
└ Just think of it as a summoning totem rather than a summon, might be better for mental health?
└ If you think about it that way, it’s a huge win lol The debuff performance is insanely good though
But even in the midst of this, watching what this rabbit was doing made even my remaining motivation disappear.
Swoosh-!
[Summon ‘Bani’ has taken critical damage from Lumen Ghost!]
– Hit me… Even counterattacking is bothersome…
So I was actually getting fired up out of spite.
‘I’ll make use of you somehow.’
A sense of mission arose to firmly correct the habits of this trash subordinate lying around in the workplace under a boss-like superior.
– If I die and return, I can rest.
Look at this guy?
Acting like this when it won’t even die.
What do I mean it won’t die?
Summons don’t die.
They just get reverse summoned.
– Bani needs rest…
So this could be said to be a line with quite subversive intentions.
It was no different from just wanting to clock out and rest.
Kieeeek-!
That was why I was now holding a ‘bow,’ a weapon I rarely used.
Ping- Pippiping-!
And why the appearance of new party members felt so very welcome.
“Dave-nim, back then… didn’t you say… tank?”
“Wow! A rabbit! So cute!!”
High-grade healer Seila Novin and crazy explosion maniac Elicia Rowell.
If these two joined the party…
– Bani, even dying is hard. This too is a curse…
I might be able to fix that problematic summon’s bad habits.
* * *
The reason I wanted to recruit Novin and Rowell to the party was naturally because our hunting ground was the ‘Lumentis Hollow’.
If we included a fire mage who was solid in terms of damage dealing and a capable healer…
Limited to Lumentis Hollow, our hunting efficiency would increase exponentially.
On top of that, if we could easily farm the Crite Wyrm… we could really level up as if a highway had been built, all the way to the late 30s.
But honestly, I hadn’t expected both of them to agree to recruitment so readily.
Rowell aside, in Seila Novin’s case, I had felt her watching me with suspicious eyes continuously since our first meeting.
And one more thing.
‘I can’t be certain yet, but… she’s definitely not an ordinary healer.’
It was because of Seila Novin’s ‘true skill’ that I had realized near the end of our last party hunt.
‘I thought she was just a Saint Keeper based on her skills alone… but she might actually be a 2nd class Saint Guardian.’
Actually, this was just simple suspicion, and the chances of my guess being wrong were much higher.
A Saint Guardian who had completed their 2nd class advancement was talent worthy of noble treatment even in ranker parties…
There was absolutely no reason for her to come to Lumentis Hollow with the seemingly good-natured Bellic Hyungnim.
But even so, the fact that Novin’s specs far transcended the 40s level was an undeniable truth.
For my current party, that level was more than sufficient—it was excessive.
“Oh! One mage and one healer?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“You could say that.”
“Wow, this is really my first time partying with a healer!”
└ Well, our Leo… even after crossing continents, he only parties with the Room Owner…
└ With Leo rank, you could easily join any guild and even get a dedicated healer assigned to you ㅠㅠ
That’s why I brought an amazing healer, didn’t I, hyungnims?
└ Yeah, that friend Nobin, I saw him play last time and he was actually pretty good.
└ Honestly, using a berserker mage without that healer would be nearly impossible anyway lol
└ Unless the Room Owner plans to do ‘evasion-counter tanking’.
So from now on, we’re really going to run properly!
My goal is to reach level 33 within this week.
└ The reason Room Owner is suddenly rushing to level up… was it because of that Hunters School thing?
└ Yeah that’s right, they said they applied there.
└ Kyahhh lol I hope the streamer passes. If they go there, the broadcast would be so entertaining lol
└ But looking at his specs on paper, isn’t Room Owner totally weak?
└ lololol I heard Lee Seonghwan and Kang Sohee applied lol the room leader is gonna get rejected at the document screening stage lol
Hey, could you tone down the harsh truths a bit?
“…”
But how do these Constellation bastards know Earth variety shows so well?
Maybe it’s because hunter variety show participants eventually all turn on Lyka streaming while filming anyway…?
└ Right lol
└ That’s why rankers’ streams are so entertaining lol there’s so much content ㅋㅋ
Anyway, while I was briefly chatting with the Constellations, our completed 4-person party was also finishing up combat preparations.
“Alright, shall we head down?”
One close-range dealer and two long-range dealers.
Finally, a healer specialized in shield support.
‘This level of party composition is perfectly optimized for using that cheeky rabbit to the extreme…’
But whether I could really fix Bani’s bad habits(?) today.
That… seemed like something I’d have to wait and see.
