A Late-Start Tamer’s Laid-Back Life (Manga): Volume 9

Yuto and the gang have a surprise encounter with the famed Tamer Amimin and her friend Mattsun. While exploring a dungeon together, they suddenly find themselves facing down a boss—the Earth Elementals’ Guardian. After being blown away by the capabilities of these two amazing players, Yuto returns to his farm to find that his cherry blossom tree has bloomed, meaning that he can finally continue his quest chain and hold a flower-viewing picnic. Yuto invites the NPCs Spade, Pisco, and Ryver, along with his entire friends list, and it turns into a massive shindig! Amid all the revelry, the eggs that players received during the Village Relief Event begin to hatch, and the party guests have to deal with an unexpected picnic crasher—in the form of a raid battle!
