Title: Consequently, Their Relationship Began to Wane

After updating their gear, the three officially entered the cave.

“By the way, is a swordsman a long-term profession in this game?”

Not long after they began exploring, Miku asked in confusion.

“No.” Gabriel replied bluntly, “In any game, a swordsman will not be considered a long-term profession.”

“Then Gabriel, why do you keep getting closer to me?”

Seeing the swordsman character beside her, Miku asked quite puzzled.

“Didn’t I just say that I want to protect you? I’m just fulfilling my duty now.” Gabriel said seriously.

“That’s true, but isn’t it bad to let Ren be the front guard?”

Miku felt something was off no matter how hard she thought about it.

In general, archers in games are responsible for output from the backline, but now they were being used as pathfinders. There must be a problem with the division of responsibilities.

“It’s not an issue, Kamikawa reacts very quickly. Even if he encounters a monster, he can use his skills to escape.” Gabriel explained.

“Alright then.”

Miku wasn’t too involved in this matter, as it was just a game.

“What should I do if I encounter a monster?”

At this moment, Ren’s voice rang out.

“Of course, we will fight!” Gabriel shouted impatiently, “I’ll tank the damage, Kamikawa, you go to the back for damage output, and Miku, you’re responsible for support.”

“No problem.”

So, they followed Gabriel’s orders and launched an attack on the monster.

But when Gabriel’s sword slashed and the monster’s health bar didn’t show any change, the three of them realized something was wrong.

“It seems like this monster isn’t something we can defeat with our current gear...” Miku concluded.

Their equipment was the most basic wooden set. It was natural that they couldn’t defeat monsters with high defense.

“This game is really randomly made! This is clearly a cave near the spawn point, but the monsters inside have such high defense, it’s too much!”

Complaining about the game mechanics, Gabriel controlled her character to walk backward.

“So what do we do now?” Ren asked.

“Run away.”

Gabriel proposed a very realistic approach.

“Um.”

Just as Miku was about to retreat, she noticed Gabriel was already halfway out.

“Wait a minute, aren’t you supposed to be behind?”

Gabriel asked, “Why me?”

“In general, isn’t that the case?”

Instead of using Gabriel as the swordsman to delay time, would it be necessary for the archer and mechanic to stall the monster?

Most Warring States games are strategy-based, and she knew the common sense of this type of game very well.

“There is no such rule.” Gabriel made a very bad statement, “In this game, whoever runs slower will be the one to stay behind.”

“Eh?!”

Miku was shocked by her words.

“It seems I can’t run.”

As the three of them ran, and no one was fighting the monster, it caught up to them in an instant and killed Miku and Ren’s game characters in seconds.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be responsible for recycling your equipment. See you at respawn.”

Gabriel, the only survivor, reassured the two of them.

After resurrection.

Miku and Ren quickly found Gabriel.

“Here, your equipment.”

Dropping the equipment they had lost, Gabriel controlled her game character to leave.

“Gabriel, where are my materials?”

Since Ren had been exploring, the only thing he had was the equipment they had crafted.

But Miku was different. While chopping trees, she wasn’t just cutting down trees.

Gathering other materials along the way was something almost every player did.

“What materials? I haven’t seen any.” Gabriel said innocently.

“Didn’t they drop?”

Miku asked in surprise.

“No.” Gabriel emphasized.

“They would drop. It’s written in the gameplay.” Ren suddenly said.

But after saying this, he felt Gabriel’s gaze.

“Yes, they dropped, but now they belong to me. After all, I worked hard to pick them up!” Gabriel said confidently to Miku after glaring at him.

“...”

After hearing this, Miku didn’t know how to respond.

“If you want, let’s duel!” Gabriel declared war on her, “As long as you win, I’ll return the materials, but if you lose, all the materials will be mine.”

“Mechanic is a support profession. Isn’t it unfair to fight against a swordsman like you?”

Thus, Miku vaguely understood Gabriel’s intentions.

“Then to be fair, we can all use starter equipment.” Gabriel said generously.

“Isn’t this essentially a change?”

Miku’s tone became more relaxed as she started to complain about her behavior.

“Do you want to duel or not?”

Gabriel had no intention of changing the conditions.

“We can challenge each other, but what if you don’t give me the materials after I win?”

Miku mentioned something that was very likely to happen.

“Then let Kamikawa be the notary. I’ll hand over the materials. Whoever wins will get the materials from him.” Gabriel suggested, “You can trust Kamikawa, right?”

“No problem.”

Miku agreed to this plan.

So, Gabriel handed all the materials to Ren.

“Shall we start the game?”

After everyone had put on their starter equipment, Gabriel made a confirmation.

“Wait a minute while I adjust the settings.” Miku said hurriedly, “Some keys in this game are unusual.”

“Alright.”

After that, the sound of keyboard clacking came from the other end of the phone.

“You can start fighting now.”

Shortly after, Miku seemed to have set up the keys and controlled her character to move.

“Let’s go!”

With these words, the duel between Gabriel and Miku began.

Unsurprisingly, Gabriel won this victory.

Even though Miku had tried her best, there was still no way to overturn the character’s disadvantage.

“Great, I won!”

Gabriel’s game character continued to jump and celebrate her victory.

“No way, the character’s disadvantage is too big.”

Miku, on the other hand, was waiting for resurrection.

“Kamikawa, please give me the materials as soon as possible.”

Arriving in front of Ren, Gabriel asked him.

“Sorry, I used the materials.” Ren replied.

“What happened?” Gabriel was stunned.

She never expected the notary to do such a thing.

“I asked Kamikawa to use them.” Miku’s proud voice sounded, “I figured I would lose the duel, so I sent him a message through the game’s private chat. Rather than letting you use them, it was better to give them to Kamikawa.”

“In other words, what you called adjusting key positions earlier was actually sending a message to Kamikawa?” Gabriel thought of something.

“Yes.” Miku replied with a chuckle.

As a young girl, she was still learning some strategies.

“You are so despicable to use this method to die together!”

“No, there was no such provision in the rules you just mentioned.”

“Hate!!!”
