1st Maelach of Meruriel Year 1215

Petrasha's POV

The humans have started attacking again. We have just received reports about that from the Yarkania Kingdom. It seems somehow the technology of the humans is quite low. They are mostly using galleys. I thought the technological level of the humans should be more higher? Or at least better than this? I guess I am over-estimating them

" So any info on the Demon Continent? " I asked Lucy through the ManaCom.

" Currently no. No attacks on the demon continent here. At least those at the coast facing the human continent. The kingdom of Manurax is now focusing on manufacturing the aether gun that you told them. They will be making it for quite some time. I heard their goal is to allow their lookouts in the entire coast to be armed with at least one aether gun. They have started delivering their first batch of aether gun to the Kingdom of Agrilux," Lucy said. Sometimes I think the demons have bad naming sense, but it can't be denied that it is very easy to recognize which kingdom is acting by their name. On the Desarrkti continent, there are around seven Kingdoms. The agricultural kingdom on the west side of the continent, the Agrilux Kingdom. The lumber and forage focused kingdom of Forestas at the southeast side. The mining kingdom of Geolicus at the east mountain ranges. Aquarix, the southern kingdom that focuses on its maritime produce. The northern kingdom of blacksmithing, the kingdom of Smith. The Northeast Kingdom that mainly focuses on spellcraft, the Magiciel Kingdom, and lastly the central kingdom which is the manufacturing hub and also the commercial hub, the Centuras Kingdom. I must say, the names sound very very absurd but, it kinda fits their name.

" How is it going for you two there then? You must be having some quality time with Amy then." I asked Lucy. 5 years ago when Lucy was traveling from kingdom to kingdom, Amy or should I say Adeline suddenly appeared before her. It seems her skill allows her to teleport between us reincarnators. It is sad that Amy didn't ever think of teleporting to here though...

" Yeah, it is fun! We both really have a great time seeing through the various scenery! It makes my originally dull mission becoming more fun!" Lucy said. I guess now with someone there she will just forget about me huh. After Amy reaches this world and teleported to Lucy, the frequency that Lucy called me has dropped a lot. Before it is like weekly. Now it's monthly or sometimes even bi-monthly.

" I guess you really are having fun with Amy right now huh... Good for you. I am still handling the affairs of the defense here. Even after it is done, I will need to start developing better ships for intercontinental travel, while also vehicles that could transport cargo better. There is a lot of work to do here you know." I said in a dejected tone. I know Luca and Adeline have quite a good relation back on Earth. But for her to directly weakens the bond of me and my onee-san... it's sad.

" There's no need to be sad Petrasha~ It is not like I will forget my cute little hardworking imouto you know. It is just that me and Amy are now progressing through our relationship." Lucy said... 

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

" You two are now dating????? Why didn't you tell me that!!! I have to prepare a lot of stuff! When are you two planning to get wed? What are you planning to do after the wedding? Are you going to stop adventuring or come home? Are you going to stay there? Are you going to continue your adventure together as a couple? What are-" Before I was able to finish questioning Lucy, Amy joined in the conversation.

" Heya Peter~ Or Petrasha~ Don't worry about that stuff, we aren't going to progress until all of us are back. It was even supposed to be a secret until we go back to the Zarcara continent you know." Amy said. Damn it, well I guess it's better to have the whole gang before going onto stuff like these. After all, if Beno or Marco missed the marriage of their 2 best friends, they would be pretty pissed.

" So, when are you two coming back? I am sure Christine would want to see you, Amy, I haven't told him that you came back since she is very busy with her idol business. Ever since Lucy sent the demon instructor back. Christine was able to sing way more better. Though she is now still tone-insensitive, at least that's better than tone-deaf." I asked them. 

" Well, we are playing for waiting one more year. Since so far everyone comes every 5 years, we are thinking Marco or Beno will be coming within this year. If they spawn in this continent, we are going to bring them back together. It is better to travel together after all," Lucy said. That makes sense, if we could grab them together it would be good. Lesser confusion and more efficiency.

" Very well then... I was hoping you guys would come back earlier but I guess that can't be helped. Remember to say hi to them for me if they appeared there ok?" I said towards Lucy and Amy dejectedly. I wish I was there right now... not here doing boring researching things.

Petrasha's POV

" So what you are telling me, is that you are going to take a detour to train Marco up," I said towards Lucy through the ManaCom. It seems two months after our last call, Marco shows up at the Desarrkti continent and uses the name May now. This means Beno is the only one left on Earth now... Poor Beno, I will not snack on your chips anymore. Well, no one of us is clever enough to produce chips here anyways. At least I don't, I am more of a tech guy rather than a food guy. Maybe let Marco do it, he is a food guy.

" Yeah. She says her skills allow him to quantify her stats and she wants to try improving it." Lucy said. Seriously, if you could raise stats like those in games, then both me and you should have high enough stats already.

" Tell May to come here, I want to fix that brain of hers," I said in a stern voice. Seriously, did May's brain degraded after being transported here?

" Yo Peter! Or should I say Petrasha? It's me, Marco, call me May now though, Marco doesn't sound correct with the body I am in now!" May said energetically.

" May, I will tell you one thing. Give up on leveling up by killing monsters. Because if you could level up by killing monsters, Lucy should be at a level way higher than yours now. She was a hunter before meeting with us. Lucy and Amy also fought several enemies within the Desarrkti continent. So if they leveled up, their stats should be way stronger than yours already. So be a good girl and let's gather up." I said towards May, my statement leaving her dumbfounded.

" I guess so... They said Christine became an idol, is that true?" May asked. Good, they told her everything.

" Yes, and a very successful idol, one that can sing and dance, and before you ask, we fixed her tone-deaf problems. It is not a complete fix but at least it's better now. At least it won't be able to kill people now. Though if you want, I still have recordings of her pre-treatment voice." I said while showing a mischievous face. It will definitely be fun to scare people with Christine's high-pitched voice.

" Er... I'll pass on that one... then how do you level up your stats then? If it isn't through leveling up, is it through doing tasks daily? Like running practice for agility and stuff?" May asked. Seriously I don't really know, it is not like I could see my own skills and such. But with May here, her role will be some sort of appraiser I think. It would be good in our future I guess.

" I believe it is through training, lifting for strength, and such. I don't really know how are the stats are assigned. I assume at the very least there's strength, agility, and intelligence, right? Then do stuff accordingly then. Even skills in this world are obtained while training to be good at that task, like the [Smithing] skill requires one to smith for a specific amount of time and produced certain stuff." I said towards May, hoping to explain her to this stuff that even myself doesn't know much of it.

" Hrmm, I think we should go back as soon as possible. I am curious what skill I will have now." this time it's Lucy who said this. Well, that's normal. Lucy is the first one who reaches this world, plus she is a hunter so she should have some good skills. Even I am interested in my own skills.

" Well, I guess I will wait for you guys to come back then. When you all reached the continent, I will call Christine back for a reunion party. Though I believe it would be best if Beno would be here too." I said. Well, when I met Christine and Lucy, I also threw a party for them so I guess throwing a party for Amy and May would be normal too.

" The speedboat should be able to bring all of you here, just remember to not do anything stupid," I said 

I wonder if this will define May's job in the future... Someone who could read the skills of others would be very important. Since it would help their personal development a lot...

But I think I should prepare for the party... I should get some Julakhog meat, their meat is pretty juicy... also some Merberry for some juice... Amy would like it since she likes strawberries and it tastes similar. 

I can't wait until Beno is here too, I wonder how will he change her name. And I will be sure to not eat her food sneakily as I did back on Earth. Sorry, but you are too open that we all like to eat the chips you bring to school.

Benokelvin

Quite a timeskip, though not much until the Beno reaches. This chapter is more like another worldbuilding where we explain another continent, though not that much of it. 

Also... anyone had the experience that when you bring chips to school, your friends all tried to grab a piece of it?

Another also... I saw some pretty good nicknames for Belgrynd/Beno, since I'm pretty happy with those and have some suggestion of my own, which one do you think should be used?
