Chapter 164: The Strongest Tactic

Top Chat: So, how will Elf-san move?

"I’ll gather items."

The location was ahead. Beyond a large hole in the ship, there was a slightly luxurious cargo room. I was heading there.

Top Chat: Pretending to be a villager?
Top Chat: Camouflage operation.
Top Chat: Surprisingly normal.
Top Chat: [Good news] Elf-san understands that a frontal charge is weak [smart].

"A frontal charge is strong, you know?"

Top Chat: Review the past match results and see.
Top Chat: Didn’t you lose every time?
Top Chat: [Bad news] Elf-san insists a frontal charge is strong [give up].

"Hmm."

Top Chat: Elf-san’s ears perked up.
Top Chat: Seems displeased.

"Elf-san, Elf-saaan."

"Misora."

Top Chat: Reverse-God-sama.
Top Chat: Elf-san picked up Reverse-God-sama while collecting items.
Top Chat: Heh heh heh, once back, I’ll throw them in a box with a blanket and give them lukewarm milk.
Top Chat: A stray cat maybe?

"Elf-san, found them! The First Victim, in the rear cabin!"

"Rear, huh."

"But Riku-kun and the others are already patrolling. This is bad!"

Top Chat: Hm?
Top Chat: That phrasing means…
Top Chat: Reverse-God-sama, another werewolf?

"Rawr."

"Huh? Ah, rawr!"

"Hm."

"Ehee~"

Top Chat: Reverse-God-sama participating in a mysterious ritual.
Top Chat: Elf-san’s ears are perked up.
Top Chat: Looks satisfied.
Top Chat: Is that really okay, lol.

"So, Elf-san. What should we do?"

"Leave it to me."

Top Chat: Oh.
Top Chat: Some clever idea?

"Does Misora have any special items?"

"Luckily, I got them first and picked up the rest along the way, so I have both."

"Give them."

"Here!"

Top Chat: Fully-equipped Elf.
Top Chat: Can they actually use the special items?
Top Chat: I think I understand Elf-san’s plan.
Top Chat: Let’s spoil it actively.
Top Chat: Quick!
Top Chat: My guess: 'Use special items to swap twice with the patroller.'
Top Chat: Twice?
Top Chat: First, swap and kill the First Victim while in the patroller’s form, right?
Top Chat: Mm-hmm.
Top Chat: Then swap again to shift suspicion onto the patroller.
Top Chat: Ah, I see.
Top Chat: No need to choose between true or false, avoids roller strategies, perfect!
Top Chat: Whoa.

"You only have one 'Leave it to me'."

Top Chat: I just thought I understood Elf-san’s plan.
Top Chat: lol
Top Chat: Would’ve been strong if it worked.
Top Chat: So, the correct answer?

"I’ll use the strongest tactic."

Top Chat: The strongest tactic.
Top Chat: I feel like I can guess the punchline.
Top Chat: No way, it can’t be…
Top Chat: Hey, Elf-san?

"Misora. Don’t shield the Elf, okay?"

"Huh?"

"Charge!"

Top Chat: Nooo!
Top Chat: Just as expected!
Top Chat: Someone stop them!
Top Chat: Waaahhh!

In this game, only werewolves have lethal power.

So, if you really want to, patrolling or anything else is no obstacle.

"Elf-san? Wait! Ahead is the First Victim—"

"Rawr."

"Huh?"

Top Chat: Even the staff can make that sound, huh lol.

The First Victim quickly became my prey.
