Let's play Minecraft in a world of Swords and Spells

Chapter 31: Volume 1 Chapter 31: Playing with Enchanting



(Walson)

The next morning, I went to the graves of the nameless adventurers and placed a few tributes to the dead before going to the secret base.

Oh, Oh, by the way. After a lengthy investigation on the dead adventurers, I have sort of kicked up a big fuss in the village.

They were a group of people that went missing twenty-three years ago. And it turns out no relatives were around, so their belongings are now lawfully mine.

... Not like I needed any of their stuff. I just buried them along with whatever remained of their bodies.

I hope they can rest in peace.

I might not be very religious, but our Orphanage is basically a Grella-Vantinom church. Burying the dead is simply a sign of respect from my part.

I swiftly went to the secret base, only to find Melon soaked in blood, from top to bottom.

"Good morning Master." She greeted me while her entire body was covered in blood. This would have been funny if it wasn't so creepy.

"Melon, are you alright?"

"I am well. All the blood came from my enemies. I came back in a hurry, so I haven't had a chance to clean up yet."

Melon has a big [Chest] strapped onto her back, and it is also covered completely in blood. What sort of blood bath did she go through last night!?

[Melon_LV29_HP:1634/2058_Status:{Slave}_Title: Walson's Slave]

Ehhhhhh!? She increased her level by two in a single night!?

I am now LV29, and Grace is LV28... Oh, wait, both of us gained a level last night after Melon went out hunting.

So we basically mooched off Melon's extra EXP.

But leveling up so quickly is still pretty ridiculous.

We both have similar levels, but my HP is only a fourth of her total... Why did it have to be like this?

"Master, here." Melon undid the ropes and placed the bloody [Chest] onto the ground.

I opened it, and found that it was fully stocked with bones, and meat of all kinds.

[Amanda Meat], [Armored Cheetah Meat], [Darkmantle Minotaur Meat]... Huh?

"DARKMANTLE MINOTAUR!?" I did a double take and gazed at Melon with an astonished expression.

I remember it's supposed to be an "A Rank" monster elimination request. And it... uh... usually requires multiple groups to successfully complete it. Are you telling me that Melon just killed this thing all on her own!?

"Yes Master. It took some time, and I unfortunately took a hit from it. There is still much that I have to learn."

... The simple fact that you can KILL this thing makes you better than a majority of adventurers right now you know...? I don't think this is about learning any more.

If my sources aren't wrong, this is supposed to be a LV43 monster!

I have no clue whether or not if that's true, but it's rumoured to be as strong as [Arkon] that wolf that is known as the [Mountain King].

I took a glance at the [Bee Blade] that is strapped on Melon. The handle shows that it's magical energy has been exhausted.

... So she probably used that thing to kill it... if it's with Melon's skill levels, it wouldn't be impossible...

"My goodness..." I took out the [Minotaur's Gigantic Axe] from the [Chest]. It's a regular battle axe, but the weight is quite heavy.

"I hope these bones can make enough [Bonemeal] for Master." Melon said.

"Hn?" For me?

"Master... will this... help?" Melon looks at me with a worried expression.

It seems like my facial expression has been misinterpreted as anger. I need to quickly resolve this misunderstanding.

"Melon, you have been quite reckless." Inwardly, I was slightly happy, but I am very displeased.

"Uh!?"

"You went into the [Nakula Jungle] at night all on your own, didn't you?" I still need to scold her for doing something so dangerous.

"If it were anyone else, this would have been no different than suicide! Do you know how dangerous things could have been?"

"... Yes, Master..." Melon's head hangs low like someone rained on her parade.

Ehhhh? I only spoke two sentences and she's already shrunk into herself.

Melon right now looks extremely pitiful. She is covered in blood, and with that face and demeanor, an outsider would have thought she was tortured.

Oh okay fine... her pouty face still looks cute.

"But Melon, you did very well. This is going to make a big difference." Melons are so cute. Maybe I should give her a hug?

I opened my arms and embraced her.

Ooooooooooooh. Her boobs are squished on my chest. Oooooooooh! This is the first time I have ever touched her excellent figure so intimately.

Hm? Pervert? If I can do this, then I don't mind being a pervert!

Melon's curves are perfect. And her two melon-like boobs are pressed onto my body, her body is soft but I can feel the tense muscles hidden underneath her six-pack... does anyone think that girls with six-packs are sexy?

Her thin waist feels so good!

"M-M-M-M-Master!?"

"With these bones, I can take it easy for a while now. Thank you, Melon."

"Uuuuh... I'm just doing my job..." Melon is getting a little bit speechless.

"Ah, no. You've been doing such a good job all these years, I'm sorry, I might have to trouble you in the future as well."

"Of course..."

"Next time you want to do something like this, you better tell me, or I will start panicking. It's not good if you do it all alone."

... If I keep hugging her, my little friend between the legs is going to get excited. No, no, we can't have that.

I let go of her, and finally took notice of her blushing face.

Ah, Oh, so cute. I want to kiss her!

"...Yes, Master..."

Waitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwait, calmdowncalmdowncalmdown.

Phew... okay, much better. Anyway, back to business.

"You have used up all your potions haven't you? Your health isn't full."

"Ah... yes, you're right."

"Go take a few potions, take a bath and get a change of clothes. I've got some enhancements I would like to try with you."

Melon with her bloody chainmail looks exactly like an experienced adventurer that has gone through hell and back. Fearsome and awe-inspiring.

But blood will decrease the durability of equipment. I have to clean them quickly.

After sending Melon into the bathroom, I took the chainmail and soaked them in water.

And then I opened the [Chest] that has all the enchanted books in it.

Last night I had an idea on making Melon stronger by enchanting her directly.

Currently from what I have tested, enchanted books work on all 'non-living' things. Which means that enchantments cannot be placed on living creatures.

But... Melon is a Lizard-kin. And her hands, feet, and tail are covered with scales.

What if... I enchanted her scales?

Two books of [Fire Aspect I], [Knockback II], [Sharpness IV], making six of them total. And one of [Projectile Protection] and [Protection].

I have decided to add these enchantments onto the scales that are on Melon's hands.

Two of [Feather Falling IV] and [Frost Walker], for her feet.

Oh right, [Frost Walker] is a very special enchantment that came from Minecraft, but I only have two of them at the moment. But I decided to use all of them to make Melon stronger.

When walking on water, the surface will freeze, preventing you from sinking into it.

This is probably a very great thing in real life!

Also, if I add an additional [Feather Falling I] onto her boots, would the effect stack and make her even lighter?

I haven't forgotten about the protection. [Fire Aspect] sets the target on fire, and if Melon intends to attack up close there is a chance that it might hurt her too. So I added a [Fire Protection] onto the chainmail.

I didn't know doing these enchantments would make Melon a legend in the future. But that's a story for another time.

And let's see... Rifle... Whoa, what happened? How did he get so big? He is 2.3 metres long and 1.5 metres tall... does this size still make him count as a wolf? He is only slightly smaller than [Arkon]!
