The Capitalist Streaming of a Freeloading Hero
Episode 56
The Game of Constellations [Raika]
Full-scale combat had begun, but Nobin’s expression was nothing if not serene.
And this was only natural.
After all, Nobin’s level was… not at a point where she’d feel tension even in the Novarc Archipelago.
In fact, level 40 specters and the like posed absolutely no threat to Nobin, whether they appeared or not.
So the only thing Nobin needed to worry about in combat was just one thing.
Making sure she didn’t lose control of her power and provide overly excessive healing or support.
‘Well, I can just handle that appropriately.’
So the start of combat essentially meant the beginning of Nobin’s ‘observation’ of Dave.
Just why exactly…
Was he cosplaying as a tank, archer, and summoner when he could use a sword so well?
She was so curious about the reason that it was hard to resist asking him directly.
‘There must be some reason for it.’
But in some ways, this had made the situation even more interesting.
‘Could he actually be good with a bow too?’
And about exactly one hour after the party hunting had begun.
The person of interest (?), Dave, was… magnificently meeting her expectations.
In a direction that made her mind even more confused, that is.
‘This bastard… he wasn’t originally an archer, was he…?’
* * *
Piiing-!
[Party member Dave has dealt critical damage to a Lumen Ghost!]
Ghost-type monsters mostly have characteristics that make them nearly immune to physical attacks.
So to shoot arrows in a hunting ground like this, you need to at least know how to imbue arrows with mana…
And you must be able to aim with perfect accuracy within the wavering silhouettes of the spirits.
So even though Nobin had cast holy-type attack buffs that had good compatibility with ghosts.
Piiping-!
[Conditions met, ‘Head Shot’ effect activated.]
[Damage amplified by 300%.]
[Target falls into ‘stunned’ state temporarily.]
Landing headshots on ghost-type monsters like it was routine…
‘Something is seriously wrong here.’
This was something Nobin’s common sense simply couldn’t comprehend.
Especially when the person making this headshot mad movie might not even be an archer class.
‘No. He can’t not be an archer. How could someone who shoots a bow like this not be an archer?’
Sister Lowell, who was originally only interested in explosion experiments (?), showed no particular reaction even seeing Dave’s antics.
“Boss! Excellent! Let’s move to the next one!”
And that swordsman player named Leo, who seemed friendly with Dave from the start, just focused on combat as if it was natural.
‘This isn’t some hidden camera show…’
For Nobin, the current situation was… at a level that completely shattered her common sense.
Perhaps it was more visible to her because, unlike the other party members who were fighting with full power, Nobin was in a position closer to a spectator.
‘Even if you brought a ranker player… would it be possible to play like this?’
She had clearly thought he was a melee dealer based on his positioning, but he shot arrows so well it was impossible to think he wasn’t an archer.
“…”
And how was he controlling that strange summoned creature that only necromancers would use…
“Lowell! Stop casting for a moment! Fill up your mana for one turn!”
“Yes, Dave!”
“I’ll throw Bani inside, so Leo, don’t draw aggro for a bit.”
“Yep!”
“Nobin, your shield cooldown is up, right?”
“Ah, yes yes.”
“Heal cooldown still has some time left, so focus shields mainly on Leo for now.”
“I’ll… do that.”
Meanwhile, he was even calculating all party members’ skill cooldowns… giving such meticulous and clean party orders.
‘Hmm.’
Nobin was now feeling like her brain had malfunctioned.
If possible, she wanted to kidnap this player called Dave… and take him to the guild laboratory for dissection.
‘He can’t possibly know how to use magic or divine power too, right?’
But this led to a problem that wasn’t really a problem.
Her original purpose of deducing Dave’s identity was gradually being forgotten…
‘Then maybe… could this be possible too?’
Instead, her curiosity about just how far Dave’s capabilities extended had grown even larger.
So Nobin eventually couldn’t resist and activated a skill (?) she shouldn’t have used.
Wooooong-!
[Revelation: Stigmata skill has been activated.]
[Forcibly creating ‘weak points’ on Lumen Ghosts within range.]
She had used a high-level holy debuff skill that could only be learned after advancing to ‘Saint Guardian’ as a second class.
‘No one would know what this is anyway. It should be fine, right?’
The skills Nobin had used so far were all from the first hidden class ‘Saint Keeper’, even if their power was over-spec.
But Nobin was actually not a Saint Keeper, but the higher class ‘Saint Guardian’.
And this was a unique class that only Nobin possessed.
So Nobin using ‘Revelation: Stigmata’ was purely out of curiosity to see more of Dave’s capabilities.
‘Come on, Dave. What more can you show me this time?’
As the skill activated, cross-shaped stigmata began glowing white near the Lumen Ghosts’ hearts.
But the very next moment.
Bang- Babang- Bababang!
Nobin couldn’t help but gape in shock.
[Party member Dave has struck a ‘Stigmata’!]
[Party member Dave has consecutively struck ‘Stigmata’!]
[Conditions met, Stigmata Energy rampage begins.]
‘What… the?’
[Unique activation ability ‘Stigmata Explosion’ activation conditions have been met.]
[Would you like to activate the skill?]
Sacred energy crystals began glowing white above Nobin’s hands.
Seeing this, Nobin couldn’t help but swallow dryly…
‘It was possible for a single dealer to meet the activation conditions?’
Without realizing it, she exploded the divine power absorbed into both hands.
Kwaaaaah-!
* * *
Recruiting Nobin and Lowell to the party had been a truly inspired choice.
Lowell showed roughly the level of performance I had expected…
But that little healer was an incredible talent beyond my imagination.
└ Whoa, what was that just now lol
└ Room Owner, what the hell did you just do?
└ Looks like divine power? What kind of skill is this;;;
The skills Nobin had just activated were ones I knew very precisely.
Top-tier holy-type area combination attack skills that only the ‘Saint Guardian’ class with ‘stigmata’ could activate.
So this meant that little kid was a second-class healer as I had expected…
Among them, this meant she was a high-level talent who had changed to the extremely rare hidden class ‘Saint Guardian’.
‘She’s not a 3rd class healer, is she? Well, if she were at that level, she’d be a global ranker on Earth…’
If she successfully changed to the 3rd class ‘Saint Aegis’ here, she would be a tremendously talented individual with the potential to become the world’s strongest healer by current Earth server standards.
‘Wow, is this what foresight is?’
Suddenly, I didn’t want to limit my connection with Nobin to just this ‘Lumentis Hollow’.
If I raised this kid well and utilized her as a bus driver like Leo.
I could instinctively feel that my freeloading life would become even more comfortable.
“No, Nobin.”
“Yes?”
“Why are you only using this now?”
“Well, that’s…”
“If you’d used it earlier, hunting would have been twice as fast.”
“…”
“I can keep up with that tempo, so make full use of all your debuffs too. Got it?”
“I… I will.”
And one more thing.
The reason my tension was so elevated was because after party hunting began, I could teach that lazy summon the beauty of labor.
– Bani will not forget today’s work…
‘Absolute Laziness’ activated Bani’s overwhelming tanking power was at a level that held up quite well even against Lowell’s flame barrage.
“Ah! The bunny is all burned up!”
“It’s not burned, it’s originally black, Lowell.”
“Oh! Is that so? Then it’s fine?”
“You could say that.”
With Nobin, a high-level healer, continuously providing healing like an inexhaustible spring…
“It’s true! Even when Nobin heals it, it doesn’t turn white again!”
Our only tanker Bani had to work endlessly without even losing the justification to rest.
– If you have any conscience, guarantee break time, master…
What conscience…?
I don’t have anything like that.
– Bani wants guaranteed human rights.
What human rights for a rabbit.
– Stupid master. The rights of dolls are called ‘human rights’.
It seems to have finally gone crazy.
“…”
Anyway, because the party ran much better than I expected…
Ding-!
[Level increased.]
[You have reached level 32.]
I was able to achieve the feat of gaining three whole levels on my first day of Lumentis hunting.
“Wow, hyung already hit level 32?”
But at this point, I couldn’t see it.
“Right. Level 35 by the day after tomorrow might be possible too.”
“Damn…! That’s insane!”
The fact that Nobin’s pupils, listening to my conversation with Leo, were shaking violently like a K-morning drama heroine who had discovered the secret of her birth.
