Class Change (Yuria)

… So, somehow or other, I just couldn't sit still, and ended up dragging Yuria out into the monster territory for some hardcore leveling. She was at LV49, only one to go.

"Haa, haa, haa… no, isn't this a bit too hardcore? Me, alone, fighting a horde of monsters like this…

"Garumon battles are based on a team of three, you know? Just one person… it might be good for leveling, but isn't it dangerous…?"

"No, if it's good for leveling, then it's good. Don't worry, I've got my second party set up for emergencies.

"But you're going to defeat all of them by yourself, Yuria."

"… Oh, fine! I'll do it! When it comes to wanting to become a stronger Garumon, I won't lose to anyone…!"

In the monster territory, I didn't have to worry about prying eyes, so I could let her fight in an erotic Spirit Garb.

Patty > Leone > Yuria > everyone else > Colette > Lyuka. Watching them fight while their wonderfully sized, plump, bouncy big tits jiggled along was just splendid.

No, I couldn't get carried away watching. I had to give detailed, meticulous instructions…

"Yuria, two steps back, then Darkness at 45 degrees to the left!"

"Haa!"

BOOOM!

All right, an area-effect critical. Positioning the enemy just off-center from where the heaviest damage hit was actually pretty difficult, but my success rate was climbing.

"How about you, Yuria? Think you could do that on your own?"

"Hmm… it's tough. I think the Master, who can see the battlefield from a bird's-eye view, has the advantage.

"A Garumon-Master double-duty does have the merit of being right there in the moment and able to make split-second judgments… but since you can't see the whole field from above, your field of view's narrow no matter what.

"Will this be useful as a reference for the fight against Ursula?"

"That's exactly it… Ursula's incredibly good, she has a perfect view of the entire field. I wonder why. Is there some kind of trick to it…?"

"Well, that's what they call hawk's eye, isn't it. There is such a talent, being able to see the whole field while standing on it. There's an aspect that can be handled with training, but there's also a part that's purely down to talent…"

"I see… All right, next."

"… I hope my level goes up soon. After all this hardcore leveling…

"Did you really want to have sex with me that badly?"

"Yeah."

I answered without hesitation.

"… I-Is that so… ufufu, in that case, you didn't have to insist on LV50."

"Once I've decided on something, I commit to it thoroughly. Doesn't it feel kind of bad to bend on something you decided yourself?

"… Well, if it was a matter of life or death without sex, I'd bend it as much as needed. So in the end, my policy of trying to keep everyone's LVs even did get bent, after all."

"That's not really what we'd call bending. I'd call that prioritization.

"… You're right, when we have the leeway, let's stick to whatever you want to stick to. Cheering on the things you want to do is what makes us happy. Now, let's get to LV50 and have sex with Naoto!"

"Let's have sex with Yuria!"

Trading the most despicable battle cries imaginable, we charged the monsters. And eventually…

"Yes, here it comes, here it comes!"

"Haa, haa, haa, hahh… ah, it came… I see…"

Having fought ferociously through nearly an entire all-nighter, Yuria was at the end of her rope, gasping for breath.

"Oh, multiple-choice. Which is better?"

"Either one's fine, really…"

"Eh, that lazy of an answer?"

"Both are top-tier jobs. And both are magic experts… they're not all that different. But Great Sorcerer has versatility against other elements.

"Dark Master strengthens Dark even further, but, of course, lacks versatility against other elements."

"Hmm… thinking about party balance, I think there's a niche where the more peaky one fits in better…"

"But there might be times you have to fight alone, and Dark is way too weak to Light, isn't it. The one with even a slight chance of dealing with Light is Great Sorcerer."

"… Yuria, do you think Great Sorcerer is better?"

"That's why I said it's iffy. If I'd said Great Sorcerer's better, I'd then have said the peaky one's better.

"They both have their pros and cons, so just go with your gut, Naoto."

"… How about deciding based on balance with Lyuka?"

"… If that's the case, then either two Great Sorcerers, or one Light Master and one Dark Master would be balanced, I think… But based on our current skill compositions, the all-rounder Lyuka is already kind of Great-Sorcerer-like, and I'm Dark-Master-like.

"If we lean further into that, Lyuka is Great Sorcerer and I'm Dark Master. If we go for shoring up weaknesses, Lyuka is Light Master and I'm Great Sorcerer. Well, it's not yet certain Lyuka will evolve the same way."

"… They all have a point, and I can't decide!"

"That's why I'm telling you either is fine…"

Well, agonizing like this was fun.

"Why not bring Lyuka out and ask her too?"

"No, it's Yuria's class change, so this time let's decide between Yuria and me."

"… Hehehe."

… And so.

"… After agonizing over various things, I decided on Great Sorcerer. Running into a weak element and having absolutely no answer is unavoidable, but Yuria is also a Master. The Master being the first to fall is something we have to avoid.

"That's why I went in the direction of raising stability."

"Yes, that's good. It makes me happy that you'd worry and think things over so much for my sake."

"There's an extra trait now, this is… ah, I can switch between them, like equipment."

When the opponent was clearly weak to Dark, Dark Magic Major UP; when I didn't know who was coming, Light Adaptation was the call. The fact that Light only dealt normal damage despite her being Dark, and that she even dealt normal damage back, was interesting.

"Also, your skill changed from Darkness to Demon Art - Black Hole, and got even more powerful."

"Hehehe, of course, it makes me happy to be useful in battle, but…"

"… Yeah. Right now is…"

Now, let's hurry home. With Yuria… it was finally time.
