Chapter 19.1. When You See A Rock, It’s Mining, Right?

-Miu’s POV-

It’s about Miu’s previous life.

Or rather, it’s a memory of a game.

[Would you mine the rare ore at the Gunma mine?]

[Yes.]

[However, the ore at the Gumma Mine has magical power and transforms into a golem. Please mine it without attacking it]

[Yes?]

There was a sub-story that went something like this. It was a story initiated when I went to mine some alchemy materials.

I held the controller and tilted my head. It was an event where you were not allowed to defeat the attacker.

You had to hit the golems that appeared in the mine with the [Mine] command. It was a shameless story in which I got beaten to a pulp while I mine and beat the golem’s body.

I remember it was an extremely painful event because no matter how strong I was, I had to [Mine] a certain number of times to defeat it. I was a [Holy Knight], the composite job with the highest defense, and I went in.

The boss magic golem fired missiles and beams, and I had a terrifyingly difficult fight. It’s impossible to destroy it unless you hit it 100 times. It was the work of selecting the [Mine] command, work. The mined materials were of good quality. There was some doubt whether ore obtained by hitting golems could be called mining.

Incidentally, there was no mining work in the original story. There was only one event in which the hero’s parents were cursed and had to go to a dungeon to collect a rare magical flower to undo the curse.

In the game, there was. Because there was a job called [Alchemist]. You had to collect materials and make items in an alchemy kiln. You could change the game title to “Fantasy Dragon World Tree Reincarnation Atelier”. It’s not a good word, right? I think the production company is awesome.

And the golem only appeared in the mine. I want to say thank you for being so elaborate. In reality, golems appear in places other than mines. Then I guess I’ll have to [Mine] it. I’m mining in the face of a mass of rock. It’s a game player’s instinct.

“Tori-ya!”

[Mine]

With a crack, my all-out blow slams into the stone golem with all the force of a 9 year old girl. It’s a weak blow. I even stumbles when I raise my mace as high as I can, but it’s still a [Mine] action.

The stone golem makes a metallic sound that is impossible with hard stone. At first glance, it doesn’t seem to be working, but I believe in the game’s power.

I believe in the game power.

The game’s specifications reside inside me.

It’s not very cool.

I’m not going to let anyone die. It’s bad for the kids’ education!

“Whoa!”

Miu, the gray-haired beauty slams her mace down with a clattering sound like the tinkling of a pretty bell. Using my small body to its fullest, I use my slender arms to strike the mace with all my might.

Yamiyo and the others watch me’s actions without restraining her. They’re watching me as if I was the poster child of a ferocious and demonic beast.

I smack it about ten times, and it cracks the entire body of the stone golem, a stone golem as hard as a gemstone, five meters long. My reach is less than a meter. Even with my mace, my reach is less than two meters. The attack had hit the stone golem in the leg.

And yet, the stone golem’s entire body cracked. With a pitter-pattering sound, the stone body flopped down from the crack.

I grinned, peeled my double teeth, and laughed at the situation. It’s as I expected. Just like the effects in the game. This world is based on the novel. However, there are many times when the game’s specifications can overcome the novel’s setting. That’s because they created the game after the novel’s completion. The game setting, which overrides the novel’s setting, seems to have affected the game.

The production company didn’t care if they destroyed the original work many times. Moreover, the novel’s rough setting got made detailed in the game. It was as if they were building a world.

That’s why I thought the stone golem was about to crack.

“Oh! That hard stone golem is!”

“As expected of Mii-Sama!”

The instructors became surprised, and Yamiyo’s eyes lit up, impressed.

I slam the mace down on it and try to destroy it. But the swinging speed is slow, and I attack with all my might one at a time. It takes time.

The cracks are getting bigger. I thought I would be able to destroy it a few more times. The stone golem got bound by chains of light and couldn’t move.

“Guoh!”

The stone golem, which should be a golem that never screams, lets out a yell as a crack in its rock face opens wide as a mouth.

“Gwah!”

“I’ve run out of mana!”

The guards’ mana ran out, and the chains of light broke free. The stone golem got released from its restraints.

The stone golem’s rock legs made a hole in the ground, and it glared at me as he stepped hard.

“I thought you would!”

I didn’t think I’d be able to beat it with a perfect seal. It was a template by any stretch of the imagination. The stone golem got sealed at the start, and at the end, it’s got released, and we’re in battle. It’s definite development. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The stone golem raises its arm and comes roaring toward me. If it hits me, it will be a hamburger of Miu. I can’t let that happen.

The punch comes at me with a booming sound. It was as if a chunk of rock was falling in front of me. The 9 year old girl got crushed by the rock, and it was game over.

“I’m not going to go with that!”

[Run Away]

I select another command. With a squeak, the magic armor I’m wearing Activated. The armor of each part of the magic armor which looks like a combination of a white priest’s uniform and a leotard, deployed, and mana circulates my body.

Feeling the fullness of power, I jumped to the side. The stone golem’s punch dug into the spot where I had been, and it got deeply buried in the ground.

A cloud of dust and broken pieces of pebbles hit me. With a “kororin kororin,” I roll backward and quickly pick myself up. It’s a good thing I’ve been doing this practice. I’ve been practicing since kindergarten, so I’m a master.
