The Ivory Forest – #11
Next week… Nyna realizes something she probably should have realized earlier but the threat of imminent death delayed it a bit.
Transcripts
Nyna: W-wait!
Kaylin: Huh? Oh relax! I’m not going to attack you!
Nyna: Why not? That doesn’t make any sense.
Kaylin: Well, killing you would be a waste.
Kaylin: You are far too cute.
Nyna: Eh?
Kaylin: Maybe if it was an important quest and there was something to gain from it, but there isn’t, so I’m not. No offense.
Nyna: No offense?
Kaylin: Well I don’t want you to believe I think you aren’t worth the time and effort. I’m sure you are a very dangerous nekomata, an elite too, right?
Nyna: (thinking) Elite? Isn’t that the term mother said the Adventurers described her? It’s why they avoided her solo? (aloud) Yeah! That’s right!

ah yes. now Nyna gets to see that Kaylin is extremely OP by not being scared of her for being “elite”
Nice bluff, Nyna.
Not really a bluff, she totally is an Elite… but not a Level 100 Elite, and even Elites can be soloed if you’re high enough leveled over them 😛
Either way, I get the feeling that she’s not elite enough to handle Kaylin on her own.
Is anyone of the female gender?
Her name is Nyna?! 11/10. Love you, Sage.
The page where she actually says her name is coming up. Check the ABOUT/FAQ page for how her name was chosen- it might surprise you. 😀
TIL this “Nyna” is pronounced “Nya-na”.
That’s just perfect for a cat-like creature.
I just read the about/faq are you serious “Nyna” is seriously a Dark Elf Name that is completely a Catgirl name dammit WTF?!…though I did read a manhwa once that had dark elves as part Animal creatures
hmm so adventurer still fears the elites does that mean if she comes face to face with a dungeon boss she out?
Now tells Kaylin that she’s an elite Nekokata just like how her mother was described.
Hi! I found this comic today, and would like to follow it, but… I can’t find any RSS feed?
Ooo, a WoW reference? Or, maybe other MMOs use “Elite” to mean “shoulnd’t be solo’d”, too?
Either way, I just started reading this comic today, but I’ve been a Yosh fan for ages and ages. Really glad I finally gave this one a chance! It’s definitely going in my regular reading list.
pretty much every MMO since WoW has used the term “Elite” in some version to represent enemies that are much harder then normal enemies. Not necessarily “Do not solo” though, as why would you worry about an elite enemy that’s impossible to solo when level 10, when you’re level 100?
