あんちゃん 逆だぜ。
こちらのかたは教わりに来たんだ。
あんちゃんが教えてやんなくちゃ。
そうに決まってるじゃないか あんちゃん。
早いとこ 採掘師のイロハを教えてあげなよ。
はい まずは採掘師のイロハのイ！
いきおいは感じたけど
ぜんぜん説明になってないよ あんちゃん。
‥‥じゃあ ためしに
おいらが代わりに説明してみるね。
採掘師っていうのは
鉱石や宝石を採るライフです。
鉱石は鍛冶や大工に使われるし
宝石は錬金術に使われます。
需要が多いので お金が稼ぎやすい
夢のあるライフといえましょう。
あんちゃんと暮らしていれば
誰だって そうなっちゃう。
そんなことより 採掘師の体験だよ。
とにかく 実際に採掘してみるのがいいね。
これに着替えてみて。
あんちゃん だからちがうだろ！
マスターの腕前があることを自覚しろよな！
もう 指示を待ってても出てこなさそうだから
おいらが代わりに出しちゃうよ。
このあたりにも鉱床はあるけど
せっかくだから特別な鉱石を掘りに行こう。
目指すは パーテル大平原だぜ！
話がややこしくなるから
あんちゃんはそこで待っててくれ。
説明も済んだみたいだし ぼちぼち行こうか。
よろしくな！
これが鉱床だよ。
調べることで 採掘ができるからね。
それじゃ 青い鉱床から
アクアマリンを３つ採ってみよう。
手際がいいなぁ。
初めてで なかなかこうは行かないよ。
あんちゃんのところに戻ろう。
また 弟子にしてくれって言い出しそうだけど。
あんちゃんのところまで
またたく間に 連れてってあげようか？
わかった。
それじゃ 目をつむって！
わかった。
寄り道はほどほどにね。
あんちゃんは むかしっから
見る目があるね！
まーた それだ！
あんちゃんは 師匠になるべき採掘師なのに！
わっ そういうことだったのか！
でも 今日はもう時間切れ。
あんちゃんとおいら
あんたの弟子入りを首を長くして待ってるぜ！
ほんとだよ！
ツルハシを振り下ろしたときのザクッて音が
おれは 大好きなんだ。
そのザクッ ザクッ ザクッが
ガキンッとなったら もうたまらねえ！
わかるだろ？
お宝発見かもしれねえってことさ！
The Fledgling Miner 102
It's Rocque, Bro. ROCQUE.
Er, other way round, Bro.
Yeah... But [Player] is here to learn, not teach.
You're gonna show ￩(
Yup, pretty sure that's the reason for the visit, Bro.
How about we give ￩(
That was very...passionate, Bro. But you didn't
actually explain anything.
...Uhh, OK, fine. Watch me, Bro.
Miners live Life one ore deposit at a time. Our job is
to dig up ore and precious stones.
The ore goes to the Blacksmiths, and precious
stones go to the Alchemists. Ya dig?
Our goods are always in demand. Money ain't a
worry with mining!
It's Rocque, Bro. And I've got way more time on my
hands than you do. You're a married man...
While you're enjoying married Life, I'm frittering
the day away memorizing our beginner's spiel.
...And where are these diamonds, exactly?
That's the second time in two days, Bro.
Of course! I'm all over it like the dirt on my boots!
Just leave it to me, Bro.
OK, [Player]. We're gonna take a little field trip
and get you that pickaxe.
It's Rocque, Bro.
It's, er...Rocque.
Wh-what? No way, Ruby!
This here is our newest Miner. ￩(
B-BRO did that?!
But... R-right... Of course not...
Ahh... Umm... Bro forgot the, er...pickaxe...
You've been unfaithful to Ruby, Bro! We know all
about it!
Yup. She basically said you're Castele's number-one
two-timer.
I started learning on Castele Copper myself,
although I wasn't very good at it.
Wh-whoa! Hold up, Bro!
C'mon, Bro... Stop it already, will ya?
*sigh* There's no stopping him now. Might as well
get going, [Name 2].
Oh yeah. If you run out of stamina in the middle
of mining, take a swig of this.
OK! Get that pickaxe equipped and ready!
Good luck!
It's just [Player], Bro. Our new Miner? ￩0
You'll be all right alone, won'tcha, [Player]?
I've got a few loose ends to tie up here.
You know where What's Mine Is Ores is, don'tcha?
It's just west of my bro's house. Ya can't miss it.
Oh, hey, [Name 1]!
Sure do. ￩0
So what are ya lookin' for, diggit?
TOPAZ?! Ain't those super rare?
Wow. You're lucky, [Name 1]!
Ain't that the truth... But why a Topaz, anyway?
...It's a favor for a girl, isn't it?
It is! That pretty girl from Al Maajik asked you, right?
It's written all over your face! I...I'm kinda jealous...
Wow... Al Maajik is as exotic as it gets when it comes
to rare gems.
Ancient ores older than dirt, gems darker than the
night sky... I've always wanted to go.
OK, let's get this Topaz hunt started. I'll let you take
the lead, [Name 1].
Hey, this must be the place!
Molan said it should be near Castele Chapel, right?
This is a good-quality deposit, but...it looks more
rock solid than usual.
All right, this calls for a sweet move that'll help you
crack things wide open.
Got it? Well, get to diggin'!
You did it, [Name 1]! That there is a huge Topaz!
We should find that cute Al Maajik gal and give it to
her right away!
...Hoo boy, what a gem.
I'm not talkin' about the Topaz.
I mean her! I...I think I'm in love!
Do you believe in love at first sight, [Name 5]?
I think suddenly I'm a believer...
OK, I've made up my mind. And I owe it all to
you, [Name 5]!
Oh, uhh... Sorry about that. I'm really distracted
right now.
We need to report back to my bro. He's probably at
his place by now.
When we meet up with him, you take care of your
Miner's stuff, [Name 5]...
And me... Well, I'll just have to break my romantic
news to him.
Heh, he's gonna be interested to hear how we
turned a Topaz into an Amethyst!
We really made that girl's day. Talk about a job
done right!
Hey, [Player]! Show Bro what we managed
to find.
Uhh, Bro...don't you think this might be the gem
you lost?
Bro, I...
I...I'm leaving for Al Maajik!
I've made up my mind. I'm heading to Al Maajik to,
uh, live out my dream!
Been thinking about it for a bit, but today's when I
finally decided to act.
Uhh, errr...I...
Well, kinda. Yeah.
Well, if I go, you won't have to look too far to find
a bright, young pupil to replace me.
Yeah! Of course I'll drop by! Definitely!
Well, [Player]. Wish me luck!
Look me up if you're ever in Al Maajik, ya hear?
What's up? Did you run out of mining spots?
[Choice: Yes / No]
All right, I gotcha covered. One sec.
Remember, it's all about grip! Good luck!
If that's all, get choppin'...er...minin'!
...Speaking of which, what's the latest on Iron
Ore Deposits?
Me? Oh, I'm not the Master. You want that
burly-lookin' guy over there.
Miners and moles have been partners for as long as
anyone can remember.
You say that like it's a good thing, Bro! Whatever
happened to hard work?!
Yer really fine without an explanation?
[Choice: Yes / No]
Pretty confident, eh?
I really think you should let us train ya.
Such as?
She's a Hunter, though.
Bro, he's a Woodcutter.
He's a mole, Bro.
...It's a pickaxe, Bro.
Besides, Bro, you seem to be a bit too confused to
explain anything right now.
Isn't there maybe some short, sweet bit of advice you
can give our li'l bud here?
Way to instill confidence, Bro...
Whoa, that was, uhh...fast.
...Ahh, makes no never mind. Congrats! You're now
our honorary minin' buddy!
I'll spread the word on Hole Net, let 'em know you're
all official. Y'know, so they don't treat ya different.
Whenever you complete a challenge or two, make
sure you come back and talk to my bro.
Bro!
Chat 19
That sound when your pickaxe strikes rock... Boy!
There ain't nothing better in all Reveria!
That TINK! TINK! is music to my ears! But then...THEN
there's a loud TONK.
You know what that means, don'tcha? It means
you've struck ore...and sweet, sweet gemstones!
Excuse me, waitress! One Barley Juice, if you please!
Whoa, whoa! Don't sneak up on me like that! Say,
you look familiar...
OH! Hey! Long time no see there, [Player]!
How've you been?
What's with that look? I totally recognized you!
Boy, do I have much to tell you! So much has
happened since we last met.
But before we catch up, here's a little something to
commemorate our meeting up again!
How's my bro doing? He and Ruby are getting along
fine, I hope...
Oh, yeah! I was wonderin' if you wanted to head off
on another adventure again, ya know, for old times.
You remember, right? Back when you were just a
Fledgling, how we teamed up and found that Topaz?
If that wasn't the pickaxe point of excitement, then I
don't know what is! Except for maybe a pickaxe...
Anyway, it'd be great to team up with you again!
Bro might look real tough, but he's surprisingly
delicate on the inside.
It's amazing how worried he can get over the
tiniest things.
*sigh* What a bummer... I'm still not married...
How sad is this? Me sittin' here drinkin' Barley Juice
until my bladder explodes...
You're an Expert Miner now? Th-that was...fast.
You know what? You remind me of my bro when he
was younger.
I remember those days... Bro, Daniel, Ruby, and her
brother Manuel.
Oh, yeah! And me, too, of course.
Times sure were tough back then, you know? But we
had a blast!
I've been thinkin' back about this crazy shiny gem I
once saw. Never managed to get my hands on it...
Guess there ain't a thing I can do. It's just been so
long since I've even mined a single gem...
Oh, uhh...sorry about that. Didn't mean to be a total
mood killer there.
You're a Master now? No one told me! Sheesh, talk
about the odd ore out!
Guess that's the way the rubble crumbles... Wanna
know what my dream has always been?
In the Ancient Ruins, there's a crystal made of pure
magical energy. They call it the Dark Heart.
I've tried to mine it more times than you can swing a
pickaxe, but I just didn't have it in me.
But, hey. That's fine! Sometimes it's good to aim
beyond your abilities, ya know?
The Dark Heart is one tough rock... I wonder if you'd
be up to mining it...
Hey! I heard, I heard! So you actually went out and
fulfilled my dream!
I...I don't know what to say. That dream of mine was
no joke.
Maybe now Angela will... H-huh? N-no! N-nothing!
I was, uhh...just admiring the shine of that gem!
...Er, anyways! Probably borin' ya! Boy, you sure
went through a lot of trouble!
But thanks to you, things worked out! Nothin' like a
good ol' happy ending!
Huh? Wh-what do I want with that gem?!
Heh. All right, all right. You win.
I really wanted ya to get that gem so I could give it
to Angela!
...There! I said it! Boy, this is embarrassin'.
L-look. Keep this private, all right? Don't go telling
Bro or Daniel about this!
Congrats on becoming a Legend! Looks like you and
I are swappin' roles now, huh?
Now maybe you'll be the one showin' ME some
rockin' mining techniques!
Way I figure it is, yer a lot like a gem that's been
sittin' in the sunshine of my minin' wisdom.
Now that you've soaked up all that sunshine, yer
ready to keep shinin' for the next hundred years!
Hmm... This sounds kinda familiar. Did I tell ya this
already? Oh no! My memory's gettin' like Bro's!
Ya know, every Life has its tough moments. That's
just sorta the way of things.
But, ya see...that's why I'm a Miner!
I just dig through those tough times and uncover
those shiny gems of happiness!
It's all about diggin' those shiny gems of happiness
whenever you can, ya know?
Ah, don't mind me. I'm just sorta thinkin' out loud.
We've both gotta give it our best! Just remember...
Ya gotta have fun too! We should get together for a
good ol'-fashioned rock party!
All play and no work will dull your pickaxe! Gotta get
back to diggin', diggin', and diggin'!
Uh-oh. I sounded an awful lot like my bro just now,
didn't I?
He's always spoutin' off stuff like that. I remember
gettin' plenty of that back in Castele.
"Dig, dig, and dig s'more!" Kinda like that.
I heard the news. Creator rank, huh?
I'll be honest with ya, I had no idea there was a rank
higher than Legend. Weird...
Anyway, all's well that ends well! Congrats!
Hmm. I'm sure that wasn't a rank before... Did I
imagine it? I-I can't remember!
I'd better ask Bro and Ruby about it the next time I
visit 'em in Castele!
