Chapter 149 - Volume 2
TL: This chapter is kind of short. I’ll probably get one more chapter done if it’s not too long.
Special mention and many thanks to beefcake who donated a whopping $150. Most of it is going into TSTBGAM though. He/She’s like the first person who donated to that series ever lol, and the biggest donator to donate such a chunk of cash, so I’ll throw in a few more TSTBGAM chapters just for you. Holy shit.
Chapter 94 – Crystal
Brendel explained to the girls there was a requirement to summon or use the cards he had at hand, and expressed that he did not have the necessary materials to summon Medissa. Even though he had revealed part of his abilities as a Planeswalker, Amandina did not suspect the Mercenaries of Lopes to be summons.
[Medissa is one thing, but the Mercenaries of Lopes act like people who are still alive. If people start to think that I can somehow trap people and turn them into cards, I might be sent to the gallows or to be cut down on sight. Fortunately, Amandina is loyal enough so she probably wouldn’t reveal what I did here. I can probably spin a nice story somehow……]
After keeping the card, he directed the two mercenaries to scout the temple. At the same time a few of the mercenaries went to pass him the loot. The Spectral Knight had left behind a crystal and a pair of boots.
When Brendel saw the crystal he thought his eyes were deceiving him. He rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not dreaming.
[No, I must be seeing it wrongly. I’m called the Luckless King in the game, so how did I managed to get so lucky?]
“Me?” She looked blankly at him with her hand placed over her chest. It looked like some kind of glorious task but she did not understand why she caught Brendel’s attention. She thought for a long time and could only think that it was some fetish of the nobles, and her eyes became suspicious of Brendel.
Brendel whirled around and did not explain to her. He was secretly delighted because he used to lead a bunch of luckless party members. This time there was a lucky person who was also a hot babe……
The Blood Greaves were a standard ‘Tank’ item in the game. Brendel wanted to let the Nightsong Tiger wear it, but the latter explained that summons were unable to benefit from any magic equipment. Even though they could use the sword and bow to do damage, they could not access the energy from the artifacts.
The only possibility for them to be equipped was through the rules of the Planeswalker’s system. By equipping a card onto them, they would be able to benefit from it. For example, if Brendel equipped the Holy Sword card onto the Mercenaries of Lopes, one of them could use the full benefits of the Holy Sword.
Although, the maintenance still had to be paid out.
The girls were not combatants so they were not suitable for the Blood Greaves. In the end, Brendel wore it with a little guilt in his heart.
[If this is done in the game, everyone would have posted in the forums about my greedy actions to take all the loot….]
When he finished putting them on, the two scouts returned.
