What Kind Of Newbie Are You?! They Said That “Summoner” Is A Terrible Job, Yet They Call Her The Last Boss - CH 25.5

The area was like a party that rented out the entire floor of a hotel for its venue.

This is the standby area for players whose shoppingmode  HP hit 0 during the Event, and where they will spend their time until the end of the Event. Those who are sent here on the first day of the Event will have to wait for two full days, so you may think, “Isn’t that boring?”

Of course, just because you were sent here doesn’t mean you have to spend time in this waiting area. You will not be able to log in again until the Event ends, but you can also log out. Also, if you enter the sleep capsule, you can shut out the VR gear’s sensory functions and fall asleep until the time you set.

And there is plenty of entertainment to pass the time. Behind the developers of Genesis Omega Online is Company B, a top-notch manufacturer of Japanese toys, models, and games.

The entertainment room in the waiting area has a feed where you can watch animations managed by Company B for free, so you won’t get bored.

But still, the defeated players are concerned about the behavior of the surviving players. A monitor was in the center of the waiting area, showing the players who were still in the Event.

(That feed showed nothing but that.)

While eating and chatting, many players enjoy watching the plays of their acquaintances, friends, and other players they care about.

And speaking of the players in this rest area, the other players interviewed the first one there, Avenger Masuo.

“I heard you, unfortunately, lost to Johann-san’s party, but why are you cheering for her?”

“I’ve had a 50-50 match with them (2 Fights, 0 Wins, and 2 Losses),” Avenger Masuo replied, “and as their rivals, I’m curious about what they’re up to.”

“I’m going to be the one to defeat you… is that what you’re saying”?

“Well, that’s about it. I’ll definitely return the humiliation next time,” Avenger Masuo said.

“It’s mostly your fault, but Johann’s Party has the #1 Kills in this Event and is the center of attention here in the waiting area. From your point of view, Masuo-san, what are the ladies’ future highlights?”

“Well… on the first day of the Event, that party was a little disjointed… or I got the impression it was. Why wouldn’t I, you know?” Avenger Masuo said. “A Demon King who can do anything by herself. A belligerent Black Swordsman. A Gorilla who I didn’t know why they were there but somehow, she smelled like a strong character. At least, that was my impression on the first day. But that’s changed dramatically over the course of this Event.”

“Demon King Johann’s appearance and abilities are like the Last Boss, but her behavior is truly a beginner’s. Every Event she has a fresh reaction. She is very cute.

“However, her bumpy duo with the swordsman Zecca is interesting. If one of them is out of line, the other will immediately calmly retort, which is a good balance. It’s not something you can easily imitate.

“Remma-chan, the one watching the two of them from behind, is not an outsider either. Her Job is Guardian. So if she’s in a fight, she’s trying to protect the two of them. She is in good health. She’s also really cute. And because they’re aware of it, they’re overprotective of Remma-chan yet are friendly with her.

“I can’t help but envy Remma-chan who is loved by those two older sisters. I want to go to that world where I have sisters like that, you know?”

“In short?”

“In short, the adventures that they will weave together as true companions. That will be the highlight of their future,” Avenger Masuo said.

“Thank you very much”

And when Avenger Masuo’s interview ends: the players all receive an announcement from management. What will happen in these 6 remaining hours?

The players who were relaxing in the entertainment room also gathered toward the monitor in the center.

“What the?”

“Somehow, the last Event is about to begin.”

“… I see, it’s a raid battle… huh… what is this?”

“Hidee,” someone whimpered.

It’s the last day of the Treasure Event. The Final Battle was about to quietly begin.
