VRMMO: My first Contractee is Yandere

Liora was being dragged in.

She couldn't wield her scythe or use her dagger. She probably couldn't even think straight in that situation.

She kicked and flailed her legs wildly. Even repeated [Flash] spells were ineffective, showcasing the mimic's trait of "always taking at least one person with it."

Is she really going to be lost...

I shouted desperately.

"Liora, use that skill! It might be futile, but... [Tame]!"

"—!"

Before Liora could become a complete victim of the mimic, I decided to try every possible means. The [Tame] skill I instructed Liora to use was one I had her learn, considering it essential for solo activities.

Essentially, it's a "Tame" skill, a unique skill limited to shrine maidens, but it seemed very inconvenient. It couldn't capture normal monsters and could only secure "Yuni," which were rare to find. Yuni is a type of weird monster.

Despite debating between Tame and this, we decided to go with the shrine maiden-exclusive skill. According to the forum, there were no reports of taming a mimic. This was confirmed by a reliable source who consulted with an Elf sage.

Even if taming was ineffective, it was the only option left to try.

"Keep spamming it!"

"—! Ugh—!"

Just as her MP was about to run out...

[Tame successful. Name your tamed mimic.]

The mimic spat out Liora. Covered in slime, she clung to me, almost in tears.

"That was terrifying! God! God! Thank you, God!"

"Yes, yes. It was scary, wasn't it? There, there, good girl, Liora."

So, mimics are Yuni...

Now that I think about it, they do seem like spirits possessing treasure chests.

In the end, we got a treasure chest from the dungeon.

[Liora's Tame skill has leveled up.]

Liora was terrified of the mimic she had tamed. The mimic itself was quiet, pretending to be a treasure chest. The old, vintage-style chest looked quite stylish.

I approached and observed it.

"Liora, what shall we name it?"

"I want to release it, God..."

"It's rare, you know. Plus, it's unusual for a monster to be compatible with [Tame]. Not to mention, monsters compatible with a shrine maiden are rare."

We had used [Tame] on monkeys and bees multiple times, but it had never worked. I wanted to be happy about finally taming something.

"...I'll endure it since God is pleased..."

"If you really dislike it, we can release it. But it might attack us again."

"Ugh. As expected, God is clever."

We named it and displayed its status.

Name: [Samurai]　Gender: [None]

Level: [47]　Race: [Old Mimic]

Magic: [Earth Magic 5]

Crafting: [Woodworking 1]

Skills: [Mimicry 34] [Ambush 24] [Restraint 28] [Action Interruption Resistance]

Status: Attack: [47]　Magic Attack: [47]

Durability: [376]　Agility: [470]

Luck: [47]

Something like this.

The mimic has quite an unusual stat distribution compared to humans. Since it can kill enemies by swallowing them, it doesn't need much attack power. Instead, its durability and speed are off the charts.

Liora's highest stat is agility, but she couldn't react at all to the mimic's speed. Its HP is also very high. My [Dark Ball] couldn't even leave a dent on it. If Helmut's durability is from defense, then the mimic's is from its HP. Liora, on the other hand, is a regen-type tank.

In this world, the toughest ones are all durability types. Anyway, if used well, this mimic could become a pure tank. While Liora is also a tank, their ways of enduring are different.

"Samurai, pleased to meet you. By the way, about your mimicry skill... can you increase your skills?"

'—'

"I see! It seems it doesn't understand speech..."

"? God. It says it can."

I turned to Liora, wide-eyed in surprise. Well, the default form of the dark spirit doesn't have eyes, and its entire body is round, anyway.

Could it be that Liora understands mimic language? Or maybe because it's her tamed monster?

"Liora, please ask if it can take human form."

"God is asking. Can you take human form?"

'—'

"It says it can add one form for every 10 levels. It currently only has the treasure chest form, so it's free to choose."

Samurai's [Mimicry] is at level 34. This means, excluding the initial treasure chest form, it can take up to three different forms. This should be interesting.

First, human form is a must. Without matching movement speed and actions, our party would become disorganized. We can't have Liora carrying a treasure chest everywhere.

It needs a way to move on its own. Human form would also increase its utility.

"Tell it to take it to human form like this…" Hearing my words, Liora's eyes shone as she nodded her head brightly, "Yes, God!!"

'—'

Thus, the mimic Samurai took on human form.
