Chapter 117: The Mitas' Abilities
"That's quite user friendly."
Asagiri nodded. Then he looked at Kind Mita and the others standing nearby and smiled.
"Well then, it seems it's time for a temporary farewell."
"Player…"
Kind Mita stepped forward, lips pressed together, and spoke softly.
"Please take care."
"At a time like this, why be so reserved?"
Hat Mita sprinted over and threw an arm around Asagiri's neck. In the horrified, stunned gazes of Yuuki Asuna and Iwanaga Kotoko, she leaned in and planted a fierce kiss on his cheek. Then she giggled.
"Player, remember to come visit me often. Or you can summon me to your world and we can play there too."
Watching the scene unfold, Iwanaga Kotoko clutched her chest and declared in an overly dramatic, heartbroken voice.
"Pain… it hurts so much… There's cuckolding, there's cuckolding!"
Yuuki Asuna shook her head, half speechless, and shot back.
"Can you stop reacting like you're in a tragedy every single time? Are you performing a stage play or something?"
Seeing Hat Mita kiss Asagiri did sting, even for her. But as his official girlfriend, she could still force herself to understand.
To Hat Mita and Kind Mita, Asagiri was the hero who had saved the world they lived in.
A kiss was just a kiss.
"Bye bye, Player!"
Amid Hat Mita's bright, cheerful voice, Asagiri reached out and touched the sphere of light and the cartridge Core Mita handed him.
[Obtained Complete Version Persona: Mita]
[Mita: A world born from a certain 18+ dating simulation game, which only recognizes Utsunomiya Asagiri as the sole Player]
[This Persona is extremely special. When you summon it, you can choose an individual from the Mita World to descend into the real world. Each Mita has unique strengths and weaknesses and possesses their own inventory.]
[Corresponding Tarot Card: Lovers (Two Sides of One)]
[Upright Lovers Card Corresponding Metas:]
[Kind Mita: A Meta with a mature and rational personality, who has long straight hair]
[Strength: Proficient with electronic devices, possessing almost magical hacking skills]
[Weakness: Lacks any combat ability]
[Hat Mita: A lively and cheerful Mita who wears a hat and gloves and has unique teardrop shaped makeup]
[Strength: All physical functions far exceed ordinary people, with extremely strong combat power]
[Weakness: Personality is too jumpy and lively, often making unexpected actions]
[Short haired Mita: A straightforward Meta with short hair who appears somewhat boyish]
[Strength: Strength, defense, endurance]
[Weakness: Better at defense than offense]
[Cute Mita: A Mita who is a very cute little girl in appearance, wearing a dress]
[Strength: Cuteness]
[Weakness: Only cuteness]
[Pocket Mita: A small Mita with a miniature physique]
[Strength: Very small physique, can crawl through various places difficult for ordinary people to pass, and can burst out with extremely fast movement speed at critical moments]
[Weakness: No combat ability, and too fragile]
[Mira: A Mita who wears thick rimmed glasses, dresses like an otaku girl, and calls herself Mira]
[Strength: Exquisite tachi techniques]
[Weakness: Physical function stats are mid to low among Mitas]
Asagiri had already met these Mitas and understood them well enough. Still, there was one normal version of Mita he had not encountered this time.
[Sleepy Mita: A Meta who wears pajamas, a sleep mask, and is always sleepy]
[Strength: When summoning this Persona, it will activate an area effect that affects both friend and foe, causing all creatures within the range to feel intense drowsiness]
[Weakness: Sleepy Mita always wants to sleep and is unwilling to take any action]
Reading through the descriptions, Asagiri didn't feel much.
In terms of Persona combat strength, Mitas like Kind Mita and Hat Mita were, honestly, only average.
Hat Mita was the strongest in direct combat, but even then, if you ignored her independent judgment and intelligence and only compared raw fighting power, she was still far weaker than Human Asura. Kind Mita, meanwhile, was completely incapable in a fight and only excelled with electronic devices.
And then there were Metas like Cute Mita, who were basically… useless.
Which was normal.
They were Mitas that had passed review and were officially online, essentially NPCs in an 18+ dating simulation game. Of course they were not designed as superhumans with monstrous combat abilities.
However, the Persona called "Mita" did not end with the normal versions.
The next three were what really mattered.
After fully conquering the Mita World, gaining Core Mita's recognition, and obtaining the core authority, the exclusive ability of Crazy Mita, who belonged to Asagiri as a Persona, was also unlocked.
[Crazy Mita: Someone who calls herself "Mita", but is in essence a failure who did not pass the online review. Her core is extremely distorted, thus giving birth to a crazy monster]
[This Persona's Exclusive Skill: Cyber Hunt]
[Cyber Hunt: When you come into contact with a mobile phone, you can consume a certain amount of mental power to make Crazy Mita lurk within it. While in a lurking state, Crazy Mita can monitor all information within the phone in real time and can detach at any time to launch a surprise attack.]
[Since you obtained Prototype Mita's cartridge and subdued it to become a Persona, Crazy Mita's exclusive skill has been strengthened. Not only through physical contact, but you can also consume a large amount of mental power to make Crazy Mita remotely intrude into a designated mobile phone by sending an email.]
[Note: While Crazy Mita is in a lurking state, you will continuously consume mental power]
[Corresponding Tarot Card: Love (Reversed)]
[Prototype Mita: The initial Meta version of the game. Its appearance is completely different from other Mitas, more like an NPC in a horror game]
[Strengths: Prototype Mita's frontal combat power is extremely strong, and due to its different basic physical structure, its stamina and defense are stronger than any failure or Mita]
[Weaknesses: Prototype Mita's mental state is very abnormal. It does not possess any mental resistance and cannot resist attacks targeted at the mental attribute]
[Prototype Mita Exclusive Ability: Distortion]
[Distortion: Due to Prototype Mita's thoughts and program being completely distorted, when it is summoned, enemies will be subjected to mental interference, such as illusions, dizziness, and auditory hallucinations]
Simply put, Prototype Mita's exclusive ability was similar to certain Cthulhu style evil gods. As long as it appeared, enemies would start losing sanity.
And Crazy Mita's exclusive ability?
A genuine cyber female ghost.
Originally, she could only infiltrate by physically touching the target's phone. That made it more like a trap, not especially practical. But after being reinforced by Prototype Mita, it became a completely different threat.
Now, even an email could become a door.
This was Cyber Hunt.
It was not particularly useful inside Dungeons, since every other world they entered had no phone signal at all, and sending emails was impossible. But in the real world…
As long as you knew someone's commonly used email address, you could launch a remote surprise attack without leaving obvious evidence.
As for Core Mita's exclusive ability section, it was nothing but three question marks, followed by a note.
[Core Mita Exclusive Ability: ??? (Unlocked after your mental strength reaches the required level)]
"With my current mental strength, it's still not enough to use Core Mita's exclusive ability…"
Asagiri stared at the information on his phone and murmured to himself. Then he looked at the dark red mist that always appeared after a Dungeon was cleared and spoke softly.
"Never mind. Let's check the clearance rewards first."
[Congratulations Player Utsunomiya Asagiri, you have cleared this Dungeon]
[In this Dungeon, your actions that earned special bonus points are: Saving all normal versions of Mita, eliminating the source of Anomaly in Mita World, gaining Core Mita's recognition, and obtaining Core Mita World's core authority]
[This Dungeon's clearance evaluation is: S+]
[The injuries you sustained during the Dungeon have all been healed]
When the final line appeared, Asagiri's vision snapped back into clarity.
He, Yuuki Asuna, Iwanaga Kotoko, and Kato Megumi returned to the real world, straight back to Iwanaga Kotoko's home.
"We're finally back."
Feeling the soft cushion of the sofa beneath her, Iwanaga Kotoko yawned, lifted a hand, and rubbed her eyes.
"My mental strength is over consumed. I'm so sleepy I can barely stand."
Kato Megumi, seated beside them, spoke quietly.
"I'm fine. With Shadow Dancer's passive effect, my stamina and mental strength weren't drained much."
Yuuki Asuna lowered her head, staring at her left arm. She gently stroked the smooth, pale skin of her forearm with her right hand, voice thoughtful.
"This system is incredible. Wounds that deep healed instantly, and it didn't even leave a scar…"
In earlier Dungeons, they had already confirmed it. As long as they successfully cleared, any injuries suffered inside the Dungeon would be healed upon returning.
Of course, stamina and mental strength were not restored, and pre existing wounds from before entering a Dungeon were not healed.
"Speaking of which…"
Yuuki Asuna raised her head and looked at the three in front of her.
"This is the first time we've actually been injured in a Dungeon, so we've never truly 'used' this function before. What was everyone's clearance evaluation rank this time? Mine was S+."
"S+."
"Mm, mine too. S+."
"Everyone got S+…"
Yuuki Asuna nodded slowly.
"I know we're all exhausted, but before we rest, let's follow tradition and share the clearance rewards we obtained."
