The Tale of Hero Alice’s Social Death

Garbage.”

Of these non-Garbage weapons, one of them was a “Milu Rabbit With Some Mana,” a brethren of the fox-tailed rabbits that Alice had been eating for the past several days.
After knocking this thing unconscious, Alice could wield it and use it as a weapon.
The rabbit had a “Not Bad” quality, and its effects were “Strength +2, Speed +2.” It was significantly better than an ordinary stone.
Hence, Alice was now raising a Milu Rabbit.
She had tied the rabbit to a tree with a vine, and she would knock it unconscious and use it as a weapon whenever she went out hunting.

After repeatedly being knocked unconscious for the past few days, the Milu Rabbit, unfortunately, did not improve its resistance to blunt force trauma.
Instead, all the karate chops to the head had seemingly knocked a few screws loose from its head.
Now, whenever the rabbit saw Alice approaching, it would tacitly ram its head into a tree and faint, saving Alice the effort to knock it unconscious.

Apart from the Milu Rabbit, Alice had also picked up strange items such as “Sparse Iron Ore That was Brought to the Ground by an Earthquake,” “Poplar Branch Bathed in Holy Light,” and “Baptized Sedimentary Rock.” All of these items had the “Not Bad” quality.
As for higher quality weapons, Alice had yet to encounter any thus far.
Although Alice had found many identical copies of these items, she still chose to keep all of the “Not Bad” items in her temporary campsite as a collection because of her gamer mindset.

Meanwhile, collecting these strange items became one of the few pleasures Alice had now.

Fortunately, Alice's patience wasn't meaningless.
On a certain day, after Alice returned from picking up trash in the forest, she found a person standing in the small campsite she had settled in for the past few days.
Her heart jumped when she realized this fact, and her frustration of not seeing humans for half a month vanished instantly.
She subconsciously wanted to call out to the party, but she seemingly remembered something and quickly shut her mouth.
Then, she hurriedly hid behind a large tree, poked her head out, and quietly observed the figure standing in her campsite.

The other party was relatively short, and they seemed to be roughly the same height as Alice.
They had long, silvery-white hair, so Alice guessed that the other party was a girl.
However, because the other party had covered her body with a big cloak, Alice couldn't say for sure whether she really was female.
The other party also wore a mini wizard's hat on her head, which probably meant she was a magician.

Because Alice had previously gained 5,000 points of Mana from the Soft White Underwear, it was safe to say that magic existed in this world.
Hence, it wasn't strange for a magician to appear.
However, what worried Alice now was whether the other party was friend or foe.

Although Alice had yearned for human contact when there were no other humans around before, she still couldn't help but be worried now that she had seen another person.
Looking at the wizard's hat, Alice became even more confident that this world's civilization should have a setting similar to medieval Europe.
The fact that magic existed also proved that this world contained supernatural abilities.
So, it definitely wouldn't be strange for this world's inhabitants to operate based on the law of the jungle.

What if the other party wasn't a good person? Now that she no longer had any panties to make use of, how should she fight with the other party?

While Alice was pondering how she should initiate contact with the other party, the suspected female suddenly executed a new action.
After looking around at the somewhat crude campsite, she reached into a cloak and pulled out a…mobile phone? Alice guessed that it was probably a phone.
To be precise, it was a glass plate with a very smooth surface.

Afterward, under Alice's stunned gaze, the other party held up the suspected mobile phone, swiped a finger across it a few times, and seemingly started taking pictures of Alice's campsite.
Flashes of light had even appeared from the glass plate, and Alice could vaguely hear the sound of a camera shutter.

…Isn't this the Middle Ages? Why is it a little different from what I imagined?
