Greetings, fellow adventurers! This is the Elin State of the Game editorial team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’d like to share Elin-related news that have been sent in from all over Ylva this month as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the September issue of \u201cElin State of the Game,\u201d out on Nyan Nyan Day (the 22nd), as always. Sit back, sip a cup of tea, and enjoy the read!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Nyanth\u2019s Update<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Check it all out!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In last month’s update, many additions were officially implemented, including tea, the new crop introduced in the July issue, along with the new spells, furniture, and monsters featured in the August issue.
Meanwhile, in the Nightly build, there are numerous updates that appear to be connected to a new episode. This time, let’s take a look at a few of the standout additions.
It might be fun to imagine what kind of locations and stories await!
(For details on all updates, see Ylvapedia<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It Feels a Bit Warm…<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First up, let’s introduce the \u2605 “Embryolith” added to the Nightly build.
This item can be crafted using any gem, gene, or other materials, and equipped into a new slot called “Relic.”
While it is exceptionally powerful since it allows you to treat genes like equipment, what kind of object this actually is remains a complete mystery for now.
It’s definitely an item that piques curiosity about the story!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FOX 2!!!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Yet another new spellbook has arrived from the Mages Guild! It’s a flashy new spell called “Missile.”
Because it automatically homes in on multiple enemies, it doesn’t matter how scattered they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Here Comes the Girlmaton!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If Little Sisters turn into a giant “Imoutomaton,” then Girls turn into a giant “Girlmaton.” That\u2019s North Tyris for you.
Rumor on the wind has it that an even larger presence is drawing near…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because Books Keep Multiplying Infinitely<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A continuous stream of new furniture is arriving, including large round tables and massive bookshelves. Living up to its appearance, the bookshelf offers ample storage capacity, so avid readers can rest easy for a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Time of Liberation Has Come<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Great news for hamster lovers!
If you disassemble a hamster wheel with a hammer, the hamster inside will now come out!
However, North Tyris is full of dangers. Be sure to protect them well once you set them free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mani Turned Adventurer?!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Though unconfirmed, we’ve caught word of a rumor that Mani of Machine was seen accompanying an adventurer!
It’s hard to imagine Mani himself actually going on an adventure, but if it’s true, that adventurer must be exceptionally favored by the god.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notice<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

“Get away from me, you pervert!”<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First off, here’s the fourth Elin short video tailored for the Western audience!
When you hear the phrase “most heinous crime,” what comes to mind?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
