Kirito didnât forget the three conditions for the Player who wanted to tame the Rainbow Butterfly. First, the Player wasnât allowed to kill any insect monster. Second, the Player may not equip a weapon, and lastly, the Player must be able to subdue the Rainbow Butterfly without killing it and destroy the collar on its neck.
Back when Rozen managed to tame the first Rainbow Butterfly, he didnât have any weapon on him, and in order to subdue the Rainbow Butterfly without killing it, he deliberately headed to the location while he was still at level 1 and had no additional stat, he also refrained from increasing his Sword Skills level.
But that was no longer the case this timeâ¦
âIâve never seen anyone above your level; you also have been allocating 2 STR and 1 AGI each time you level up. Not to mention your Blade Throwing Skill should be at level 500 right now if I remember correctly.â
âEven if you havenât killed any insect monster so far, youâve changed weapons several times by now, right? Doesnât that mean you didnât meet the second condition?
To sum it up, although Kirito knew the second Rainbow Butterfly was very important for Rozen and he did notify him, he didnât think Rozen could tame it. However, when he saw Rozen came all the way here, he thought Rozen might have a solution.
âAnd you think I wouldnât notice that?â
It turned out Kiritoâs hunch was right.
âJust sit tight, and I will return with the second Rainbow Butterfly.â
Rozen said briefly without further explanation.
âAlright.â
Kirito then nodded, and both of them went back toward the Moonlit Black Catsâ members.
âIs there anything we can help you with?â
When Keita saw those two returned, he asked that question because he thought those two might have a problem.
âNah, I just had some question, thatâs all.â Rozen just said: âThen I will go alone, Kirito will stay here to look after you, so you donât have to worry about being attacked by monsters.â
âThanks⦠Sorry for the troubleâ¦â Keita was a little embarrassed, and other Moonlit Black Cats members behind him were relieved.
Although Keita and his party didnât know Kiritoâs level, and Kirito told them that he was just a supporting member in Red Wings, but they believed Kiritoâs level should be at least higher than them since he was still a Red Wingsâ member at the end of the day. Not to mention Kirito did help them earlier, and they were convinced that having Kirito there should be enough, although Kirito himself barely broke a sweat when he helped them earlier.
Sachi, in particular, seemed more relieved than the rest, and upon seeing it, Rozen realized something.
(This girl named Sachi mustâve been afraid to fight, no.. sheâs afraid of dying.)
The only time she looked more relaxed was when she knew she was safe.
(Most probably, when they first discovered the Rainbow Butterfly, Ducker, Tetsuo, and Sasamaru mustâve been eager to tame it, but Keita and Sachi objected.)
However, Keita objected because he was thinking about his friendâs safety, while Sachi was just afraid of dying.
That would explain the guilt reflected in Sachiâs eyes when the rest of her friends said that they didnât mind giving up to tame the Rainbow Butterfly to help the clearers in the long run. Because Sachi didnât care about the clearers at all, she objected to tame the Rainbow Butterfly simply because she was afraid of dying.
Of course, that was normal, especially since she was just a normal girl. Not every girl could stand up to adversities as Mashu, Marie, Jeanne, and other servants.
That was why Rozen reminded Kirito.
âYou have to protect these people, i canât let something terrible happen to those who help me, especially girls.â
Rozen said so profoundly.
âWhâ¦whatâ¦?â Kirito was a little confused, but he still nodded and said: âDo not worry, I will protect everyone.â
âAlright then, look forward to my return!â
Upon hearing Kiritoâs response, Rozen smiled and rushed into the poisonous flower field like a gust of wind.
Everyone watched as Rozen slowly disappeared from their sight.
âIs it really alright to let him go by himself?â
Kai is somewhat worried.
âHe said it himself; there should be no problem.â
Kirito said convincingly.
âHe is a high-leveled Player among the clearers after all.â
âThe poison in this floor shouldnât have any effect on him, right?â
âYeah.â
Ducker, Tetsuo, and Sasamaru said one after another.
Even the quiet Sachi also partook in this conversation.
âI wish i can be like him, not afraid of dying.â
Upon hearing Sachiâs words, Kirito was startled at first, but then he immediately understood why Rozen to stay behind and protect them, especially girls, which he meant to be Sachi.
âDo not worry.â Kirito said to Sachi: âI will not let you die.â
Sachiâs eyes were drawn toward Kirito in an instant. Looking at the boy who was probably younger than her yet looking reliable, she finally smiled, erasing the gloomy look on her face so far.
âThank you.â
Sachi expressed her gratitude with a beautiful voice of her.
âD⦠Donât mention itâ¦â
Kirito scratched his head in embarrassment.
â¦â¦â¦â¦
Meanwhileâ¦
As soon as Rozen entered the poisonous flower field, he noticed that his hp bar kept flashing and decreased over time, which meant he was affected by poisoning.
Butâ¦
âMy hp is barely reducing, this is probably a level 3 toxin, huh?â
Level 3 toxin could be dangerous to players around level 20, but it was no problem for Rozen, who was almost at level 50, and he should be unaffected by level 2 toxin.
âAt this rate, it might take about an hour before my hp becomes yellow, about an hour and a half before becoming red and 2 hours before all my hp depleted.â
Rozen estimated that he could stay there for up to two hours.
However, this was only the case if his hp didnât regenerate at all.
Upon closer inspection, Rozenâs hp increased a little bit even when he was being poisoned. That was thanks to a certain Skill called battle healing, which restored the Playerâs hp over time even during combat based on the level of the Skill.
âWith my Battle Healingâs level, I can probably regenerate more than half hp that i lost from the poison, so maybe i can last around six hours if I donât use any recovery items.
After finishing his calculation, Rozen rushed into the depth of the poisonous flower field.
âSix hours should be more than enough.â
