Thus, Milora Sistema became a member of the Moonlight Adventure Team once again.
Congratulations, congratulations.
Her strength is still limited, but considering her luck as the original Protagonist, if Torina guides her, she should grow quickly.
Torina is in a very good mood right now.
The original work “The Invincible Me After Leaving the Team” starts with the protagonist leaving the team, and if even the initial “leaving the team” plot is banned, then everything that follows would be meaningless.
The protagonist’s return to slaughter, the captain becoming a family outcast, teammates suddenly gaining cheats… all of these are based on the premise of the protagonist leaving the team.
Without this premise, the subsequent plot has no reason to exist.
Yay!!!!
The only issue left to solve is Milora’s severed finger.
Losing a pinky finger severely affects sword wielding, and no one here knows advanced healing spells like limb regeneration, so they’ll have to find a way to attach a prosthetic for her first.
(Looking at it this way, I don’t have to worry too much about my teammates with unique skills, right? Anna-veil being possessed by a demon dragon, Naji turning into a judgment angel, Lanifi becoming an ancient demon spirit, Lindas turning into a labyrinth, these shouldn’t happen, right?) That’s great.
Next, I just need to focus on managing the team, achieving some accomplishments, and waiting for the old man to explode with gold coins to inherit my share of the family fortune.
But… Although that’s what I say, there’s actually another hidden danger.
The elf Patty.
In the original work, the author gave the elf a cheat in a different way from others.
For others, it was “descending power,” but for the elf, it was “descending identity”: suddenly telling readers “this seemingly innocent elf has long been a super killer in a super assassin organization,” and then letting the elf show “the power of a super assassin” in a battle with the protagonist.
So the question arises.
“Has long been a super killer in a super assassin organization”—what exactly does “has long been” refer to? It could be “before the story begins,” or it could be “around the time the protagonist just left the team,” since there was a period between the protagonist leaving the team and returning to slaughter in the book.
The vague wording of the pig-nosed author adds uncertainty.
If it refers to the latter, it’s fine, just that shortly after the protagonist leaves the team, Patty coincidentally gets recruited by an assassin organization and then gains a cheat to become a terrifying assassin master, which can be avoided.
But if it refers to the former… it means this seemingly innocent and cute elf girl was already a member of an assassin organization before joining the team, and her innocence is all an act.
Keeping such a person in the team, I can’t sleep soundly.
Torina secretly glanced at Patty’s pure and cute face.
Her appearance was dreamy, her hair was as bright as gold, and her pointed ears and slender figure were very cute.
Could such a girl really be a killer who kills without blinking? At this point in time, has she already joined the assassin organization?
“What’s up, captain? You’ve been staring at me.” Patty noticed Torina’s gaze.
“Ah, nothing!” Torina quickly withdrew her gaze, not daring to look more.
But there’s actually another thing troubling her.
Why did Marian and Lilia suddenly go crazy and come back for revenge, and why did they suddenly power up in advance? Hmm… I don’t understand.
Maybe it’s just a small deviation caused by my actions as a reincarnator, better not to think too much…
————————
To solve Milora’s severed finger problem, Torina gathered a few members for a discussion, namely Lanifi, Lindas, and Laxis.
After explaining the need, Lanifi looked troubled.
“Make her a fake finger? And it needs to hold a sword steadily?”
“Is it difficult?”
“Of course not, do you know who I am!” Lanifi proudly puffed out her chest, which was too flat even for a loli figure, and said, “Of course, it’s easy, but it’s not quite my specialty, you know? Our family makes heavy weapons, this kind of delicate thing is too stifling.”
“That’s why I brought in two others to assist.”
Torina put on an old leader’s demeanor and patted Lindas and Laxis on the shoulders.
“Lindas, stop slacking off, show me your skills as a metal mentor, this is a super Rare Class.”
“Eh, so troublesome… it’s tiring…”
“And Laxis, I remember you said in your resume that you know alchemy?”
“A little.”
“Then please help!”
“As a reward, can I wash your clothes for you this month?”
“? Did you say that wrong?”
“No, I didn’t.
Serving you is my honor.”
“Alright, as long as you’re willing…”
“The question is, what kind of prosthetic do you want to make for her?” Lanifi interjected, “Just a finger to hold a weapon? Do you want to add anything else?”
“Hmm, let me think.”
As everyone knows, in novels and animations, losing a limb is a precursor to an upgrade, attaching a prosthetic is equivalent to gaining new power, so…
“First, it needs to be sturdy and hard.”
“Okay, any other requirements? Just say them.”
“Then it needs to be flexible, preferably more flexible than the original finger.”
“Okay, and then?”
“Can you add a size adjustment function? Like changing the diameter and length at any time, getting bigger or smaller.”
“Okay… huh?”
“It would be even better if it could change shape, not limited to the shape of a finger, but able to become conical, spherical, gourd-shaped, etc.”
“Huh??”
“Enhance its mobility, like rotating like a drill, moving back and forth like a piston, bending freely like a tentacle, growing spikes like a sea urchin.”
“Huh? Huh huh huh???”
“It would be best to reserve some space for me to engrave runes, like using fire runes to heat, water runes to spray water, lightning runes to electrify and vibrate.”
“Huh huh huh huh huh?????”
“There’s more…”
As Torina spoke, she imagined Transformers, Beast Wars, Brave King, transforming cool machinery is the eternal romance, if she could equip Milora with something like this, it would be awesome.
But Lanifi and Lindas were clearly imagining something else.
“What kind of weird thing do you want me to make!?” Lanifi couldn’t hold it in anymore.
“Huh? Of course, something super cool.”
“‘Cool’!?” Even Lindas couldn’t hold it in.
In this woman’s eyes, that kind of thing that sounds so lewd and dirty is “super cool”? “What, can’t you make it?”
“Of course I can! Who do you think I am? It’s just a bit embarrassing!”
“‘Embarrassing’…? Not at all, Milora will definitely like it.”
“Are you sure she’ll like it!? Who do you want her to use this thing on!!!”
“On the enemy, of course.”
“By enemy, you mean…”
“Ah, of course, when she first gets it, I can accompany her to practice, let her try it on me.”
“You’re going to try it yourself!?!?”
Lanifi staggered back several steps, as if she would burst out with “Mom gave birth to me” the next moment.
After several seconds of silence, she squeezed out a sentence: “…The boss is indeed the boss, an insatiable woman… your appetite and courage impress me… alright, we’ll do as you say, I believe you can handle it.”
“Mm, thank you! I won’t short you on the pay!”
Watching their conversation, Laxis almost couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
Sure enough, Torina is just too great, too cute, too interesting.
Earlier, she secretly contacted Marian and Lilia, guiding them to awaken their powers, and Torina offered her a wonderful battle.
How many more surprises will Torina Deville bring in the future? It’s really making me itch with anticipation.
