Chapter 201.1. Lich’s True Name

The [Diamond Breath] hits, filling the surroundings with a flash of light, causing a massive explosion.
While shielding her arm from the resulting blast, Mii-chan tries to assess the enemy’s condition.
“Did it work?”
For now, let’s assume I’ve triggered a flag. It’s obvious I haven’t defeated them, but I wanted to say it once.
Amidst the smoke, a large amount of mana light begins to emit.
“The Lich Knights aren’t easily defeated, huh? Right, Munin?”
As I heard a crow’s caw from somewhere, the analysis of the enemy takes place.
-Lich Knight: Level 41, weak against Fire and Holy, resistant to Slash and Dark-
-Lich Rider: Level 45, weak against Fire and Holy, resistant to Slash and Dark-
-Lich Archer: Level 42, weak against Fire and Holy, resistant to Slash and Dark-
-Lich: Level 48, weak against Fire and Holy, resistant to Slash and Dark-
-Aegir of the Dead Sea: Level 65, weak against Fire and Holy, resistant to Magic, immune to Slash and Dark-
They’re quite high-level enemies. Even the small fry is over level 40. Moreover, high-ranking undead monsters have twice the HP of ordinary monsters. They’re troublesome enemies.
At first glance, that is.
-Diamond Breath dealt 171 damage to Lich Rider. Exploited its weakness!-
Mii-chan catches a glimpse of part of the log. It dealt considerable damage. [Diamond Breath] is a Holy attribute. Its sparkling appearance wasn’t just for show.
The undead legion’s skeletal bodies crack and stumble. For one turn, [Diamond Breath] halt their movements. It’s because of their weakness to the Holy attribute.
“You insolent fool, don’t interrupt the conversation!”
Mii-chan heard a voice of anger from within the smoke, but ignoring it, she used Summoner’s unique skill.
[Summon Awakening]
“Poyopoyo~”
Magic power shining blue gets transferred from Mii-chan’s body to Poyorin. Then, Poyorin bounces up and down, and its pudding-like body expands thinly.
Poyorin’s diamond-shaped body transforms into a gigantic mirror measuring 100 meters in the blink of an eye.
Under the sunlight, the mirror formed by Poyorin made of diamonds sparkles and towers above the ground.
It’s Summoner’s unique skill, [Summon Awakening]. By consuming half of Summoner’s MP, the most powerful technique of the summoned beast is used. When used, the summoned beast is released from summoning and disappears. But that much power can be expected.
“Poyorin, target Aegir! Fire away!”
With a huff and heavy breathing, Mii-chan points her slender index finger toward the smoke.
“Poyo~!”
The mirror begins to shine, and an immense magical power converges. The air trembles and the swirling dust particles burst with crackling sounds.
Then, a flash is released from the mirror, turning into a beam of immense light energy that heads toward the smoke.
Breaking through the barrier of wind, blowing away the surroundings with a gust, the superheated beam burns the air and mows down the ground.
The immobilized Lich Riders get enveloped in the aurora, and their bodies disappear. Poyorin’s mirror changes its angle and continues firing [Diamond Ray].
The vibrant aurora pierces through the lush forest, causing the ground to explode and flames to ascend toward the sky with a deafening roar.
The blue sky grows dimmer due to the sand and smoke, leaving everyone amazed and wide-eyed.
-Diamond Ray deals 976 damage to the Lich Rider. Lich Rider is killed!-
“Oshii!” 
Poyorin’s mirror fades away like sand. 
Mii-chan watches the scene, clenches her small fist tightly, and smiles delightfully.
Lich-type enemies have around 500 HP. It’s overkill. I’ve taken them down.
The logs are scrolling down one after another.
-Gained 812 experience points. Obtained Mana Metal. Obtained Black Diamond of Evil. Obtained Medium MP Potion.- 
-Gained 886 experience points. Obtained Thunder Spear. Obtained Mithril. Obtained Water Sapphire. Obtained Medium MP Potion.- 
-Gained 921 experience points. Obtained Ice Staff. Obtained Dark Zirconia. Obtained Medium MP Potion.-
Similar logs keep appearing one after another. 
It’s close to a thousand.
There are too many to read through.
-Level up!- 
-Level up!- 
-Level up!-
And then, the notifications for leveling up continue.
“As expected of the Lich. They’re rich, aren’t they?” 
Lich enemies have a guaranteed drop of jewels and a high chance of dropping magic items and potions. 
The experience points are also slightly higher compared to their level. They truly live up to their name.
They probably named them Lich because they can make players rich with money. 
That’s what I think.
My level keeps increasing, my stats rise too, and I unlock new skills.
-Reached level 60, [Soul Awakening] has been unlocked.-
Yes, this skill is the reason why players can dominate solo.
By reaching level 60, they can now use [Soul Awakening]. This is the skill I wanted.
[Acid Ray]
A purple beam shoots out from the blast and smoke, piercing through Mii-chan’s shoulder and destroying the shoulder pad.
Glancing at her shoulder gradually rotting due to the corrosive damage, she sticks out her tongue playfully.
“I broke my shoulder pad. Oopsie!”
“Mii-sama! Are you alright?”
Yamiyo, with a pale face, tries to rush toward her but is held back by Mii-chan’s hand.
“I’m fine, Yamiyo-chan.”
Now, let’s use the newly acquired skill right away.
[Soul Awakening]
It consumes 30 MP to activate the skill. A white aura emanates from Mii-chan’s body, causing time to seemingly freeze as everyone’s movements come to a sudden halt.
“I see, so this is how it works.”
Observing the surroundings, Mii-chan nods in understanding and decides to heal her decaying shoulder.
[Cure II]
[Middle Heal III]
With the usual sparkling effects, the decay is lifted, and the hole pierced through her shoulder is closed and healed.
Once fully recovered, time starts flowing again, and everyone begins moving.
“But, Mii-sama’s shoulder… Oh? It’s healed.”
Seeing the healing light and the restored shoulder, Yamiyo looks bewildered.
Well, of course. It’s surprising, isn’t it?
“Don’t worry, Yamiyo-chan. I can use magic consecutively in an instant now.”
Mii-chan smiles cutely and proudly puffs out her chest.
“Oh… As expected of Mi-sama!”
“I’ll tell Tamamo later~”
“Eh? I missed seeing it activate.”
Yamiyo applauds cheerfully, and Tamamo gets excited. Sena opens her mouth wide, looking dumbfounded.
Well, it’s only natural to be surprised.
[Soul Awakening] is a skill essential for solo play. And its effect is as follows.
-Soul Awakening: Consumes 30 MP. Allows for 2 consecutive actions.-
Despite the MP cost, it allows for 2 consecutive actions. This skill is unlocked at level 60 and is exclusive to player characters.
I believe the developers designed it to encourage players to spend money and clear the solo content.
It was a skill that cost 500 yen.
A paid skill, you know. 
And after that, various paid skills and items were released. 
Curse you, developers! 
You’re adding all those pay-to-win skills. It was ridiculous, like a GM-level power.
