Leader of a fleet engaged in maritime smuggling.
Her crew affectionately calls her 'Ane-san' (big sister).
○ Chikokoa (CV: Akane Fujita)
A woman from Arva-Schran.
She seems to have a deep connection with Shunya...?
○ Shantura (CV: Kikuko Inoue)
An honorific referring to the Pope in Arva-Schran.
Concerned about the future of the nation, she pushes forward with unwavering determination.
○ Valga (CV: Hiroki Maeda)
Shantura's retainer, a pure warrior who seeks strength.
Currently engaged in an activity of 'excavating' something.
○ Narakufara (CV: Manabu Muraji)
Shantura's retainer, mainly assisting with government affairs.
After Mayakaua's passing, he was appointed as the next Kotodamasha (Spirit Speaker).
● New elements of the game system released!
On the 'System' page of the official website, further information regarding the game system has been released. In addition to new elements, various systems including combat are introduced.
○ Kashin Gengen (Provisional God Manifestation)
One of the new elements added to this title.
It is a new mask power that Oshutol and Mikazuchi can use. By selecting the 'Kashin Gengen' command during spirit release, they can unleash special combat techniques for a certain number of turns.
The power consumption for these special combat techniques is a percentage, not a fixed value, but they are all extremely powerful.
○ Senjutsu (Combat Techniques), Ougi (Secret Arts)
Unlike normal attacks, commands that consume power are called 'Senjutsu'. Each character can advance combat by utilizing various Senjutsu such as attacks, recovery, buffs/debuffs, and summons.
As the story progresses, 'Ougi' can be activated during spirit release.
While consuming a large amount of power, they exert powerful effects that can greatly change the tide of battle.
○ Reigyoku (Spirit Orbs)
An element exclusive to Shunya, one orb automatically accumulates per turn.
Many Senjutsu activated by consuming Spirit Orbs have effects that benefit allies and disadvantage enemies, proving useful in battles against strong foes.
○ Irai (Requests)
Various requests are posted on the bulletin boards in towns across the land.
By checking the content and rewards and visiting the client, requests can be accepted.
Rewards include not only items but also experience points, allowing for rapid experience gain and level-ups upon completing requests.
Furthermore, by completing a certain number of requests, visiting 'Yuuri's Room' at Oshutol's residence will grant useful stipends for travel from the imperial court.
○ Investment, Uchinaoshi (Reforging)
At equipment shops in the imperial capital, 'investment' can be made by providing materials.
In this title, materials required for Haru's level-up and materials required for investment in equipment shops are separated.
By investing in each category of weapons, body armor, leg armor, and accessories, higher-grade equipment can be crafted.
Also, if you possess the base equipment, 'Uchinaoshi' (reforging) can be performed for enhancement by paying Sen (money).
Not only do the equipment's stats increase, but special effects may also be added.
○ Tsuioku no Hokora (Shrine of Memories)
Mysterious shrines said to house the divine beast Nuko, existing throughout the world.
Touching them restores stamina.
