New Chapter!!! This one is done completely by me.

I may have messed up the guy’s name


 

Selection
“Yes, Welcome.”

Rika Ruth Leohald
Race: Human
Occupation: Merchant
Inherent ability: None

Yuuto met with a muscular man when he arrivied at the real estate agency

(….Another muscular person)

His appearence is simliar to Adolf but a little younger.
The man has a natural look akin to a wild bear. (Aten: no idea tried the best i could.)

“Excuse me. I was recomended here by Adolf from the guild recognized store.”

“What!? Introduction from my Adolf aniki,……!?”

As soon as he heard the Adolf the expression of Rika Ruth suddenly changed to an earnrest one as he examines Yuuto from head to toe.

Immediately after, a smile of satisfaction floated on his face.

「……なるほど。良い男だな」
“…… I see. A good man.” (Aten: ..weird)

そんな意味深な言葉を口にする。
一体、何が「なるほど」なのか悠斗には理解できなかった。
Such a deep meaning word is mentioned.
On earth Yuuto was not able to understand what was one “indeed”. (Aten: no idea)

“Well. I’d like to buy a house around here actually.”

“Hmm. Would you like an apartment or an independent house? ”

“that has not been decided yet. I want to look around first.”

“and what is the budget?”

“About 2.4 million rea……”

“nu tsu ……!?”
Rika Ruth’s eyes opened wide with surprised from Yuuto words.

“I see… Aniki is an adventurer… But to earn so much, i can only nod at the aniki Adolf favors. (Aten: this was hard.)

“Haa……. Thank you.”

“Oh! Leave it to me. Everything! I will Introduce the best property in town to aniki!”

Rika Ruth declares while thrusting out his chest.

(There is a tsukkomi… but he seems to be motivated)

Yuuto went with Rika Ruth to judge the property.

~~~~~~~~~~~~
The 1st house that Rika Ruth introduced was a neat apartment.
The room is large. It is an area just right for 3 people to live in including Spica and Sylphia.
And above all–. It was attractive that it was only 2 minutes on foot from here to the adventurer guild.

“How about? It is the high-quality apartment which gold class adventurers often have”

“It seems good. I like how it is close to the guild. by the way, how much is it.”

“Well. 700,000 rea is the original market price but because ……Aniki is a good man. so I will lower it to 600,000 rea”

“… … Oh, thank you”

It was the line that I had heard somewhere before. It seems that the guild authorized store’s “good man discount” applies to the real estate too

(to reduce the price by 100,000 reas and without even a good reason…!?)

While wanting to turn on the tsukkomi. It is better to purchase it cheap.

Yuuto decided to look at the next property and was taken by Rika Ruth

~~~~~~~~~~~~

The second house Rika Ruth introduced was an independent house located in a quiet residential area.
The house was 2 stories and produced a rich atmosphere and the house was wide enough to that 3 people could live in too.
In addition, the distance it is only a 10 minute walk to the adventurers guild.
“How much is this house?”
“Well. 900,000 rea is the original price but because …… older brother is a good man. I will lower it to 800,000 rea”
“…………”
I decided not to mind the good man discount this time.

Both the first and second house was attractive to Yuuto.
けれども。
悠斗は何故か心のどこかで引っ掛かりを覚えていた。
However. Yuuto remembered a catch for some reason somewhere of the heart. (Aten: No Idea)
Yuuto noticed the reason of the uneasiness hits his hand tappingly.

(Yes. My target should be to build a Harlem with 100 beautiful girls in a different world,……!)

Then it would be best to buy a house that can support 100 beautiful girls.
The budget is only 2,400,000 reas, with these funds it would be unlikely to purchase a mansion.
But with future subjugation quests, one can make money steadily.
“Uh. Maybe it’s ridiculous to hear this, but… do you have some idea of a residence where about 100 people… can live at the same time is?”
“What ……!? 100 people ……!?”
Rika Ruth who accepted Yuuto request squeezed a candidate from his mind.
“I have one… idea. it is managed by… an acquaintance of mine. The discount doesn’t work and it’s also a property with various troubles. do you still… want to consider it?”
“Please!”
A reason for Yuuto to refuse did not exist. Therefore Yuuto was taken to the property by Rika Ruth.

Vacation

The next day, Yuuto stayed up late and was spending all of his time in the development of the《Tentacle Magic》

He decided not to perform a subjugation quest on this day.
The person himself didn’t spill any dissatisfaction, but a colour of fatigue was indicated from the state of Spica and Sylphia by yesterday’s expedition.

I don’t want to abuse our bodies by doing subjugation quests almost every day.
It will be necessary to thank the two people with a moderate vacation.
毎日のように討伐クエストに連れ回して体を酷使させるような真似はしたくない。
適度に休暇を挟んで二人を労ってやることは必要だろう。

It was the day when the successful bid result of the long awaited 《Sword of the Usurper King》 is revealed.

Yuuto decided to go to the guild authorized store while leaving Spica and Sylphia in the inn.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

「Ou. It’s been a long time since we met last time。I was waiting for niichan all this time.」

As soon as he comes across the form of Yuuto, Adolf speaks in an openhearted tone.

「The items that I took out to auction… Can they be redeemed? 」
「競売に出した品なのですが……換金できています?」

「Ou. Sure thing! Niichan’s luck is good. This is the first price article which I sold this year.」

Adolf takes out a crocus sack which swelled like a balloon while making introductory remarks.

「Here you go. 2 400 000 rea! 」

As soon as it’s placed on the table, the sack which is filled with 240 gold coins, made a good sound of business with a DOSUN.
(MTLN: “DOSUN” is like a thud sfx… I think.)

「Oh…!?」

Yuuto’s eyes caught a glimpse of a golden radiance from the crocus sack after putting it on the table and expresses a voice of admiration.

Its 400 000 rea higher than 2 000 000 rea that they expected.
It is an extraordinary income of 4 million yen when converted to Japanese Yen.
Concerning this difference, a sum will be enormously big only to a sum.

「Which reminds me, niichan is interested in a house, right?」

「Well, yes…」

「Would you like me to introduce you to a real estate agent? People from the country side like niichan tends to be duped by vicious traders. If it’s the shop which I introduced, I can assert that such a thing will never happen.」
「もしよければ俺が知り合いの不動産屋を紹介してやろうか? 兄ちゃんみたいな田舎者は悪徳業者のカモになりやすい。俺の紹介する店ならば、絶対にそういうことにはならないって断言できるぜ」

「Really!?」

Yuuto wasn’t expecting the suggestion of Adolf.
アドルフの提案は悠斗にとって願ってもないことであった。

The inn is now too small to live in with 3 people.

「Then, here’s the map to his store.」
「ほいよ。それじゃあコイツがその店の地図だから」

「Thank you for everything.」

When Yuuto bows, Adolf floats a daring smile.

「That’s all right. I want to teach a good man that… net income steps are just various. An innocent man as niichan.」
「いいってことよ。良い男にはついつい……手取り足取り色々なことを教えたくなっちまうんだよな。兄ちゃんも罪な男だぜ」
(MTLN: This one, I’m 100% sure I didn’t get. Halp.)

「Haha…」

Pretending not to notice Adolf’s viscous gaze.
ネットリと絡みつくようなアドルフの視線を素知らぬフリをして受け流す。
(MTLN: Another one that I don’t know… .-.)
(If only this isn’t included…It’s a really good shop.)
Yuuto left the guild authorized shop while sticking a thirsty smile.
悠斗は渇いた笑みを貼りつけながらもギルド公認雑貨店を後にした。
(MLTN: *cough*)

Aiming for the real estate agent who’s introduced by Adolf.

Let’s Develop an Original Magic
The first, long journey to Orlean Forest (Intermediate) was good when traveling time is also added.
Although they took break while taking the light meal which they purchased on the way in the adventurer guild, Even Yuuto has accumulated fatigue inside his body.
初めて行ったオルレアンの森(中級)は、移動時間も加算すると結構な長旅であった。
途中で冒険者ギルドで購入した軽食を取りながら休憩を取ったものの、流石の悠斗も体内に疲労を蓄積させていた。

The demons which was subdued in today’s adventure are as follows.

Lizardmen x 22
Skeleton x 24

In the end, we weren’t able to find a Treant until the end.
They seemed often to mimic a tree, so I used《Demon Eyes》 continuously but the result wasn’t worth mentioning.

It is regrettable, but some problem didn’t occur because I wasn’t able to subdue it.
残念ではあるが、討伐出来なかったからと言って何か問題が発生する訳でもない。

When judging by the number of the subdued demon, it would be an excellent outcome.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

「Yuuto-sama will be given QP40 by today’s quest. Because of this, Yuuto-sama’s QR is promoted.」

Yuuto confirms the renewed registration card.

Konoe Yuuto
QR 11
QP (20/40)
Class: Bronze

QR rose to 11 from 10.

I can’t acquire QP in subjugation quests that are less than QR9 from QR10.

Therefore, it was impossible to increase the QR even if subdued demons except Lizardmen and Treant.

(It seems that I’ll be going to Orlean Forest for a while…)

Today’s quest reward is 5400 rea.

As for the details, 20 Lizardmen is 2400 rea, 20 skeleton for 3000 rea.
その内訳はリザードマンが20匹で2400リア、スケルトンが20匹で3000リアと言った具合である。

By being promoted to the bronze class, the subjugation quest of the skeleton having low degree of difficulty has a high reward.
ブロンズクラスに昇格したことにより、難易度が低いスケルトンの討伐クエストの方が高報酬になっている。

However.
It will be the place where it has merit and demerit because it isn’t possible to obtain QP here.

Yuuto left the adventurer guild after receiving the reward from Emilia.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yuuto, which has returned to the inn, confirms the status screen.

Konoe Yuuto
Magic: Fire Magic Lv3 (22/30)
Water Magic Lv4 (37/40)
Wind Magic Lv3 (20/30)
Holy Magic Lv2 (5/20)
Curse Magic Lv2 (13/20)
Trait: Fire Resistant Lv3 (1/30)
Water Resistant Lv3 (0/30)
Wind Resistant Lv2 (14/20)

Water Magic Lv4
Available Magic: Water Bomb

Even if water magic rose to Lv4, there doesn’t seems to be any new magic that can be acquired.

The experience value which can be acquired from a lizardman is three times of the conventional demon.
It was a status which only had the growth of water magic.
リザードマンから取得できる経験値が従来の魔物の3倍もあるからだろう。
水魔法の成長だけが頭一つ抜けるようなステータスになった。

I confirmed the curse magic next.

Curse Magic Lv2
Available Magic: Rood
使用可能魔法 ルード
(MTLN: Rood? What…?)

Rood
(A magic which rises the sexual sensitivity of the target.)
(MTLN: … This magic shouldn’t be given to Yuuto.)

(Suddenly… a wonderful magic has come.)

It was the frank impression of Yuuto.

May I try and give this magic a trial shot?
果たしてこの魔法は試し撃ちして良いものなのだろうか?

Yuuto holds up his right hand while feeling uneasy and tries to cast a spell.

(… Rood!)

Immediately after.
A blaze haze is released from the right hand of Yuuto.

A noticeable change isn’t seen in the physical condition at the moment.
Is it that the effect will be shown by touching this black haze?

Yuuto, who judged so, tries to touch the black haze with the finger of his left hand.

「…………!?」

In an instant.
A strange pleasure that made zowazowa runs in Yuuto’s whole body.
(MTLN: Zowazowa is some kind of sfx that I don’t know… .-.)

(It’s dangerous!? Unintentionally… … I can hear myself panting!)
(危ねえ!? 思わず……自分の喘ぎ声を聞いちまうところだったぜ!)

It was the experience that was plentiful enough to know the terror of the curse magic instantly.

(Concerning this magic… it seems to be necessary to inspect it carefully…)

Strictly speaking, I would like to try it with Spica and Sylphia.

However.
Because it was a special magic, Yuuto was thinking of wanting to show it in a timing called 「ココゾ!」.
悠斗の中にはとっておきの魔法であるが故に「ココゾ!」というタイミングで披露したいという思いもあった。
(MTLN: I don’t know what “ココゾ!” means but I assume (Googled but not sure) it’s something that means “To show in a situation that gives a big impact.” Not sure though…)

(Because the level of water magic rose to 4, should I try verifying this also?)

Yuuto moves to the bathroom of the inn to inspect the magic without hesitation.

Holding up the right hand, he casted a spell.

(… Water!)

Water is released from the right hand of Yuuto vigorously.

The quantity of water which comes out is few, but I think it increased.

However.
Even if the quantity has increased, water is still water.

If it’s a demon that has a weak point like the red slime, it’ll be an advantage but, it may not be useful in a fight against other people.
レッドスライムのような弱点持ちの魔物ならば活かしようがあるが、対人戦においては役に立つはずがないだろう。

However, in the next moment.
An idea appeared on Yuuto’s mind.

(Wait. For instance… If it’s hot water, it can be used, can’t it?)
(待てよ。例えばこれが……熱いお湯ならば牽制くらいには使えるんじゃないか?)

It’s a short interval, but after training repeatedly, Yuuto was able to understand the essence of magic in the other word.
短い間ではあるが訓練を重ねて悠斗は、トライワイドにおける魔法の本質を理解しつつあった。
(MTLN: It says Try Wide/Tri-wide but I’m guessing it means other world.)

The important thing is the image.

(Because the strength and the weakness of the power are acquired… Even the adjustment of the temperature should be possible…!)

Yuuto is convinced as so and begins the inspection of the water magic again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

The inspection result.

Some adjustment to the temperature of the water was possible as expected of Yuuto.

The accurate numerical value wasn’t certain, but it’s possible to operate it freely if it was in the range of approximately 0 degrees to about 40 degrees.
(MTLN: Celcius.)

When you set aside whether the temperature can be controlled whilst in a battle, it probably becomes convenient in many ways.

And it was able to change depending on an image to not only the『Temperature』of the water but also the 『Feel of a Material』unexpectedly.
そして意外だったのは水の『温度』だけではなく『質感』までイメージ次第でアレンジ出来るということであった。

「Ooh… This is wonderful…」

While the right hand produces muddy water with the gelatinous feeling, Yuuto mutters.
ゲル状の質感を持ったドロドロの水を右手から出しながらも悠斗は呟く。

In fact.
It was a known phenomenon, in this other world, that you could control the feel of the material of the water depending on training.

Though.
There was hardly any person who advances and goes to perform this training.

The reason why is–.
Because the residents of the other world weren’t able to find any use to the material feeling of the water which was changed into gel.
トライワイドの住人たちは水の質感をゲル状に変えたところで、そこに何1つとして有用性を見いだせなかったからである。

(Oi oi. Maybe I… I may have gotten a terrible idea…!)
(おいおい。もしかしたら俺は……とんでもないアイデアを閃いてしまったかもしれないぞ……!)

The idea is–.
Yuuto obtained it simply because he was implanted a unique fetish in the subculture of modern Japan.

Magic Synthesis.

When magicians that are 《Duo》and above are mentioned, they themselves will try this sometimes, but–.
The idea of Yuuto was the first combination that is unheard of in the history of the other world.

(… If I can pour 《Rood》magic into this gelatinous liquid…)

Yuuto swallows his saliva and holds his breath while trying it.

Just after that.
He succeed in taking out the gelatinous object which has rood magic flowing in it and has turned into black.

The length is short which does not reach 10 centimetres, but making something bigger will depend on the future’s training.

「… Shit! This seems to considerably consume… physical strength.」

Synthetic magic was known because of its exceptional magic consumption compared to the conventional magic.
Yuuto, who used a magical power excessively, loses his breath and collapsed.

However.
Yuuto succeeded in producing the magic that he imagined.

《Tentacle Magic》。

It’s the identity of the original magic which Yuuto invented.

(Freely manipulating the tentacles… It was the childhood dream…)

Yuuto, who sense a feedback in this inspection, pushed forward the start of the development of the《Tentacle Magic》for a while.

Demon Trainer

Yuuto was shocked with his first encounter with a 「Dragon」 in various ways.
Above all, it’s the status screen, which was shown after using the demon eye skill, that’s what he was surprised the most.

(Threat… Lv32!?)

When I thought about the highest Lv of the demon who I fought up until now was 10, the power inflation is extreme.

And what’s worrisome is the character 『Status (Taming) 』that can be confirmed using demon eyes.

Considering the future, it’s the state of taming which I would like to confirm what it meant by all means.

「Milord, it will be better to leave this place immediately…」

「? Why is that? 」

Spica, who’s shaken up, answers Yuuto’s question.

「It’s because the enemy is a dragon! Wild dragons are known as the《Strongest Species》 among the demons! It’s reckless to fight the dragon alone even if it’s master! 」

「I see, the strongest species, huh…」

However, the warning of Spica had the opposite effect and fuelled the curiosity of Yuuto.

「Master!?」

「Milord!?」

Despite the worry of the two girls–.
Yuuto made up his mind and approached the dragon.

Of course I didn’t take the risk only for my curiosity without any thought.

It’s from the fact that the alarm bell skill didn’t activate, I guess–.
Even if I approached the Blair Dragon, I thought that it wouldn’t become a situation that my life is in crisis.
命の危機に陥いるような事態にはならないだろうと考えていたのであった。
(MTLN: No idea.)

Zugyaaaa!」(Dragon SFX.)

The Blair Dragon reveals its huge tusks after opening its mouth.
ブレアドラゴンは咢を広げて巨大な牙を露わにする。
(MTLN:  咢 isn’t translating but I’m assuming it’s the dragon’s mouth because the sentence says about something opening.)

However, Yuuto isn’t shaken.
Even if Yuuto didn’t use his alarm bell skill, he understood that the other party isn’t hostile intuitively.

The Blair Dragon licks Yuuto’s cheeks using its long tongue.

「Funyu~ It’s rare for it to become attached to other human besides me…」
「ふにゅ~。パナいのです! レアちゃんがわたし以外の人間さんに懐くなんて……。くーぜん絶後の大事件なのです」
(MTLN: Some stuff has been cut from this sentence because they aren’t translating… )

Sanya Foresti
Race: Cait Sith
Occupation: Demon Trainer
Unique Ability: 【Conciliation】

Conciliation – Rarity ☆☆☆☆☆☆
(Power that makes it possible to communicate with the demon’s heart and allows it to become a familiar spirit. Successful demon conciliation will display 『State (Taming) 』)

I didn’t notice it because it was hiding in the shadow of the big dragon.
A girl, whose height is less than 140cm, is sitting next to the Blair Dragon.
It looks like she’s around 10 years old.
A strikingly beautiful girl with cat ears on top of her head and twin tails tied by a large ribbon.

「Are you…? Why are you in such a place? 」

The effect of the 【Conciliation】unique ability of the girl was known through demon eyes–.
Yuuto roughly understands the situation.

It is an unbelievable story, but this dragon seems to be her pet.

「Sanya is taking Rare-chan for a walk.」
(MTLN: Sanya talks in thirdperson, Rare-chan = Dragon (?)
I’m not really sure if that’s the name of the dragon…)

Sanya answers in a tone which gives a childish impression with a lisp.
「Walk…」

To be honest, there’s a lot of parts that I want to tsukkomi.
But, because the girl declared it as a 『Walk』, Yuuto decided to avoid saying anything.

「But, isn’t it dangerous for a small child like you to wander around in the forest? Because you know, demons appear around this area.」

「It’s alright nano desu. The village where Sanya lives is near from here. 」

「Errr… Really? 」

Yuuto didn’t believe the words of the girl immediately.

The reason is–.
The one-way distance of Orlean Forest (Intermediate) from the closest town, Expein, is 90 minutes.

There wasn’t a village written in the map, which I got in the guild, that’s near the forest.

「She’s probably saying the truth.」

Sylphia enters Yuuto’s conversation.

Although trying to keep calm, I caught a glimpse of her frightened state which she can’t hide.

「The Cait Siths are known to build their own culture. They live quietly in the forest… without touching the civilization. 」
「彼女たちケットシーは独自の文化を築いていることで知られている。文明に触れることを良しとせず……森の中でひっそりと暮らすのが彼女たち種族の特徴なのだ」
(MTLN: Something about civilization and not touching.)

「I see. There’s such a race.」

Yuuto ingrains Sylphia’s explanation to his heart.

Because.
There are a lot of races living in seclusion, evading the material civilization of mass consumption in Yuuto’s original world.

「That’s the reason why. Ah!  The fact that Sanya’s village is near here… I want you to earnestly keep it a secret. Soncho said to Sanya. When the location of the village becomes known… scary people will come over, steal things… and eat Sanya…」

「Ah, yes. Understood.」

(Is it alright to go and talk about such an important thing? )

However.
Yuuto is more worried about is the state of Sanya’s own pace.
(MTLN: Yuuto’s worried about Sanya having a “my pace” state.)

「Then, Adventurer-san. Sanya will be returning to the village.」

After saying so, Sanya’s twin tail fluttered as she hopped on the back of the Blair Dragon.

「Soncho said that when this place becomes dangerous when it’s dark because Demon-sans will become active. Be careful, Adventurer-san.」

Shortly after.
The Blair Dragon starts flying in the sky while carrying Sanya on his back.

Disappearing from Yuuto’s view.
Sanya Foresti
That girl had a “my pace” character than any other person Yuuto met.

(… There are still things that I don’t know in this world…)

The little girl whose height did not reach 140cm and a huge dragon.
Yuuto, who has encountered such a strange combination, thought of such a thing.

Triggered by this event–.
The time Yuuto associates with the whole family of Cait Sith will be a little bit more in the future of the story.

Encounter with the Unknown

Five minutes after the first battle.
Yuuto confirms his status while walking.

Konoe Yuuto
Magic: Fire Magic Lv3 (22/30)
………Water Magic Lv3 (4/30)
………Wind Magic Lv3 (20/30)
………Holy Magic Lv2 (5/20)
Curse Magic Lv1 (1/10)
Trait: Fire Resistant Lv3 (1/30)
…….Water Resistant Lv3 (0/30)
……..Wind Resistant Lv2 (14/20)

「Oh…」

Seeing the changed status, Yuuto raised a voice of admiration unconsciously.

There are two points that are notable.
The first point is that water magic has risen from (1/30) to (4/30).

One demon holds one point of experience value was the specifications that didn’t change, but I was able to acquire all 3 points at once.

The second point.
The 《Curse Magic》 was newly added.

Yuuto became able to handle all types of magic with this.

「Say, Spica. The human being who can use four types of magic are called 《Quartet》, right? … How are humans who can use five types of magic called? 」

「Um, I think that there’s probably no specific name attached.」

「? Why is that? 」

The one who answered instead of Spica, which seems to have no confidence, was Sylphia.

「Hm, It will be because there wasn’t a human being who can handle five types of magic which exist in the past. It’s said that it’s much more difficult to look for a master of 《Curse Magic》 than to look for a 《Duo》 magician. Although it is not theoretically impossible, four types of magic, 《Fire Magic》, 《Water Magic》, 《Wind Magic》 and 《Holy Magic》, are said to be the limit a human can hold.」
(MTLN: Wait… No Earth Magic?)

「I see…」

(Then I… Would be the first human being that’s able to use all types of magic in this world, huh…)

However.
At present, I feel like not taking the audacious benefit that far.

Because–.
The reason is because the power and the usable quantity of magic not only depends of the skill level but also on the amount of training.

It hasn’t been long since Yuuto was summoned to this world, but Yuuto’s magic power can’t be compared with that the local residents use.

I’d have no choice but to settle this problem steadily by practicing magic every evening.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

After that, the subjugation of Yuuto achieved a steady result.
(MTLN: Yuuto’s mission, not Yuuto being subdued.)

Originally, a search is easy because Orlean Forest doesn’t have any ups and downs in comparison to Raguru Mointain.

Adding to that–.
The subdual was efficient because only humanoid demons appear.

If one may be anxious, it’s because of the third demon.
Is it not possible to encounter a Treant at all?

「Hey, Spica. Do Treants really… inhabit this area? 」

「Well… According to the reliable document that I got from the guild. Treants usually camouflage on a tree and it is difficult to find it. Furthermore, it is written that a high-level adventurer has trouble with subduing it because it has a habit to which he escapes when a strong adventurers gets closer to it.」

「I see, there are such demons.」

Although it will be possible to detect one using the sense of smell of Spica, a bone might break before finding one.
(MTLN: 2nd paragraph: To try and find one of them will be hard.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~

We have been searching for approximately 3 hours.

We still didn’t encounter any treants, but the number of subdued lizardmen and skeletons had vigorously increased instead.

「I’m a little tired from walking. Let’s take a 10 minutes break near the waterside.」

「I understand.」

「Yes, milord.」

Pushing the trees aside, after verifying the two’s confirmation, and arriving at the waterside, at that moment.

Blair Dragon – Threat Lv 32 – State (Taming)
(MTLN: Not sure about the state of it.)
Its full length would exceed 8 metres if measure from the top of its head to the end of its tail.
A giant dragon was in the midst of drinking water.

Orlean Forest (Intermediate)

After the long one-way journey of 90 minutes.
Yuuto has arrived at Orlean Forest (Intermediate)

Because there are fewer slants when compared to Raguru Mountain, the consumption of strength wasn’t as I thought.

Orlean Forest is a beautiful area surrounded by nature where you can hear the flowing of the river if you listen carefully.

Yuuto thought that if a demon doesn’t come out, it feels like they were on a picnic and relaxing.

(However, it cannot be said so.)

After arriving, they encountered something immediately.
到着してから間髪容れずのエンカウントである。
(MTLN: MTL ain’t translating it correctly so I’ll be using that sentence as it’s close enough.)

Skeleton – Threat Lv 7

Lizardman – Threat Lv 10

Each numbered one respectively.

The skeleton is a demon that took shape of the human bone like its name.

(What to say… it reminds me of the bones specimen which was in the laboratory of the elementary school.)

If you are to mention a different point, I wonder if they have a club that’s made by sharpening a bone on its right hand.

Overall, I do not want to encounter it at the street at night… it was a creepy demon.
全体的に夜道では会いたくない……薄気味の悪い魔物であった。
(MTLN: Don’t understand.)

On the other hand, Lizardman are demons that looks like a huge lizard which walks on two legs.

It did not have a weapon unlike the skeleton, but had sharp claws in both of its hands instead.

Its whole body is covered with scales which looks hard.
I wonder if it’s a demon which both balances the offence and defence.

「Master! Please be careful! It’s said that demons that appears from an intermediate areas are so strong that it can’t be compared with the beginner areas! 」

Spica advises with one hand holding pamphlet which I received from the guild.
The explanation about a demon completely became the role of Spica recently.

「Eh? What did you say? 」

However, before Spica’s commentary ended–.

The corpses of the skeleton and the lizardman was lying on Yuuto’s feet.

「Wh…at..?」

Without knowing what happened, Spica, which was concentrating in looking at the pamphlet, stood still while dumbfounded.

Even Sylphia, who saw what happened in the battle, was not able to follow Yuuto’s swift technique with her eyes.

「Well~. After all, it’s easier to fight if the enemy is a humanoid demon. I feel that this one is far weaker than the slime. 」

Those words were the real feelings of Yuuto that doesn’t contain any exaggeration.

In order to cultivate 《Konoe Ryuu Taijutsu》with the concept to let the good points of all martial arts involve it–.

Wrestling, boxing, savate, aikido, Yuuto has learned more than 60 kinds of martial arts, including juujutsu, from all ages and countries. There isn’t a thing in it for fighting irregular creatures.

It’s because of the inborn combat talent of Yuuto that he’s been able to fight so far but–.

To be able to fully maximize the effect of 《Konoe Ryuu Taijutsu》 in war is what it’s originally for.
元来《近衛流體術》の効果を最大限を発揮することが出来るのは対人戦なのである。
(MTLN: This is the closest sentence that I can put in here as I don’t know what it really means.)

Because the body structure of the skeleton and the lizardman demons are close to a human body, Yuuto was able to demonstrate his personal martial arts, which he cultivated, without any regrets.

A blow called 《Gouken》, which destroys the body of the opponent from the outside, was effective against the skeleton.
スケルトンには相手の身体を外側から破壊する《剛拳》という打撃が有効であった。
(MTLN: Don’t know what to call the skill in English…)

For Yuuto, who is able to brush a human bone even from the top of the muscles using 《Gouken》, it’s easier to fold bare bones than twisting a baby’s hand.
筋肉の上からでも人骨を砕くほどの《剛拳》を有する悠斗にとっては、剥き出しの骨を折ることなど赤子の手を捻るよりも容易いことである。
(MTLN: Can’t understand it but I’m certain that it includes twisting a baby’s hand.)

Conversly, 《Soft Fist》, which destroys the body of the opponent from the inside, was effective against the lizardman.
Even if covered by strong scales, once an internal organ is destroyed, it becomes an irrelevant thing.
Gouken and Soft Fist

Yuuto, who did a quick subdual by using two different kinds of blow in an instant, made the surrounding dumbfounded.
悠斗はタイプの異なる二種類の打撃を刹那で放つことにより、周囲が唖然とするような神速の討伐を可能にしたのであった。
(MTLN: Sentence, dunno.)
「As expected of master! Honestly… It’s too great that I do not know what I should say! 」

「Truly! It’s no exaggeration to say that milord’s martial arts has already reached the domain of god.」

「It’s exaggeration…」

Being praised by beautiful girls doesn’t seem to feel be bad for Yuuto.

However, there’s no helping it if they’re in high spirits forever.
けれども。
いつまでも浮かれていても仕方がないだろう。
(MTLN: 2nd sentence, no idea.)

Yuuto, who judged so, finished stripping of the materials.

I wandered in the forest looking for the next prey.

Fallen Angel

The next day.
Yuuto aimed at the Orlean Forest (Intermediate) to do the newly added QR10 subdual quest.

Three kinds of demons appear in Orlean Forest Skeleton, Lizardman and Treants.

According to the map, it seems that a long one-way walk takes 1 hour and 30 minutes.

As well as Orlean forest, there’s a place far from the town with a high degree of difficulty.
オルレアンの森林に限らず、難易度の高いエリアほど街から離れた位置に存在していた。
(God awful: Not sure about this one.)
Although the roundabout trip will only take 3 hours, it’s still necessary to put up some kind of measures when you think of going to a place with high degree of difficulty in the future.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Encountering with someone suddenly without any notice—It visited with an unexpected timing.

Lucifer
Race: Fallen Angel
Occupation: Seven Deadly Sins
Unique Ability: 【Devil Eyes 】【Shadow Threading】【Kongo】【Regeneration】
(God awful: Kongo>indestructible/adamant/vajra, it was defined here as: increase resistance to slashing, piercing and blunt attacks.)

Demon Eyes – Rarity ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
(Power to see the nature of all creation. However, the degree of rarity is not shown for another person’s abilities if the details are unknown.)

Shadow Threading – Rarity ☆☆☆☆☆☆
(A power that allows high-speed movements limited only in the shadows.)

Kongo – Rarity ☆☆☆☆☆☆
(Increases the resistance to slash, sting and blow attack.)
金剛@レア度 ☆☆☆☆☆☆
(斬撃・刺撃・打撃に対する耐性を上昇させる力)
(God awful: Don’t know… ;-;)

Regeneration – Rarity ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
(A power to instantly regenerate the body which was damaged as long as the heart of oneself is left.)

Aiming at the Orlean Forest, the time where I pass the west gate of Expein has come.
I discovered a man which was entering Expein from the outside.

Its height is near 190cm. Without a doubt, this is the biggest person whom Yuuto met after being summoned in this world.
The deeply sculpted face is equipped with fantastic shining silver hair.

The reason why Yuuto paid attention to that guy was simply not because of his height.

(He’s carrying four unique abilities!?)

Yuuto had never seen a human being who possessed multiple unique abilities other than himself.

In the first place, a human being in itself who possessed unique ability was rare and the ratio was said to be 1 in 100.

A man who possesses four unrivalled unique abilities.
Moreover, each of them, including 《Demon Eyes》, have very strong power and are also high in rarity.
(God awful: Thank you ultimatearcane. :3 )
「? Master, what’s the matter? 」

「…Ah, no, it’s nothing.」

No doubt, the man in front of me is the same as the 《Vampire》 from before which is from the《Demon Race》.

I was able to guess it by the information that I have obtained from the Demon Eyes skill.

Yuuto began chasing the 《Demon Race》.

Because–. The 《Demon Race》 holds the clue in order to return to the original world according to the information that was acquired from Sylphia.

(What should I do… Do I fight him here now?)

Fortunately, the other side doesn’t seem to be vigilant for this place.

It was indicated from the unique alarm bell ability that was not triggered.

To the other party which possesses 4 different kinds of unique ability, the alarm bell will surely activate if there’s any hostility.

Black treasure necklace – Rarity ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
(Necklace that neutralizes the effect of 《Demon Eyes》that’s possessed by another person.)

It was fortunate that I put on the equipment that I acquired before.
I can see the information of the other party using 《Demon Eyes》, but it’s not possible for them to see mine.

If hypothetically…
I shiver when I think about a time where I didn’t obtain the black treasure necklace.

After thinking–. Yuuto decided to postpone the battle with Lucifer.

In the first place, it’s still a part of the city even if it’s the outskirts of the town.
The fight will surely catch the attention of a lot of people and I’ll stand out.

Adding to that, Yuuto has Spica and Sylphia with him.

Although Yuuto is looking for clues on how to get back to the original world, it’s not to the extent where he’ll put a friend’s life at risk.

Passing each other–.

After glancing at the form of Yuuto, Lucifer floats a meaningful smiles.
A face of a smiling silver-haired man was stuck in Yuuto’s mind.
(MTLN: Part of the harem, get?)

~~~~~~~~~~~~

One of the Seven Deadly Sins, that’s called the 《Strongest》 among the demon race, is present in the other world.

Pride, Greed, Envy, Wrath, Gluttony, Lust and Sloth. The Seven Deadly Sins.

Among them was Lucifer who controlled 《Pride》, one of the supreme powerful people who has subordinates which are close to 100.

「What happened? You seemed to be in an awfully good mood today? 」

In the unpopular ruin around the outskirts of Expein.
A woman was next to Lucifer.

Same as Lucifer, she is one of the Seven Deadly Sins.
Her name is Leviathan.
(MTLN: Levia-tan~)

She is the one who controls 《Envy》 in the Seven Deadly Sins.

「… No, on the way here. I’ve met an interesting human being after a long time. That person’s aura is strong for a merely human being.」

Leviathan becomes blatantly displeased after hearing Lucifer’s words.

「What was that! Don’t talk about humans when meeting with me! 」

Lucifer dodges the tantrum that Leviathan caused with a margin.

「Well, don’t say that. Did we come here to have a lover’s quarrel? 」

「That is so. I have to look for it from now on.  Father Belphegor…」

Belphegor.
It was one of the Seven Deadly Sins who controls 《Sloth》.

「Yes, I have to scold him immediately. That sluggard, engrossed in playing with the 《Magic Summoning Stone》he received from Mamon and neglecting the management of his subordinate.  That out of control vampire, Guiche Bellstein, was caused by his clumsiness.」

「That fool… The next time I see him, I’ll scold him! It’s an absolute rule for us to avoid an action that will stand out during the accomplishment of the plan.」
In the surface underwater that Yuuto doesn’t know of–.
The Seven Deadly Sins, which was said to be the strongest, had began moving.

However, the time where Yuuto will clash with them comes will take a little bit more time.

Two Maids

「Good work, here is today’s quest reward.」

「Thank you very much.」

Yuuto received the reward money for the subjugation quest at the Adventurer Guild counter.
The quests which were completed in today’s expedition are the following three.

●Subjugation of Red Slime

QR Lv1 required
Success Condition: Subdue 10 red slimes
Reward: 200 rea & 10 QP
Repeat: Possible

●Subjugation of Blue slime

QR Lv1 required
Success Condition: Subdue 10 blue slimes
Reward: 200 rea & 10 QP
Repeat: Possible

●Subjugation of Bat

QR Lv1 required
Success Condition: Subdue 10 bats
Reward: 400 rea & 10 QP
Repeat: Possible

Just today’s harvest originally won’t reach 10 bodies which are required number of subdued bodies.
However, the following items in Yuuto’s bag were obtained on a previous expedition.

・Red Slime Core x 2
・Blue Slime Core x 5
・Bat Fang x 2

Because of that, I was able to complete 3 kinds of quests at the same time.

Futhermore, because Yuuto’s QR is 10 and also have the bronze title, the reward was increased by 50%.

(I wonder if receiving the fraction of the reward is good…)
(God awful: No idea.)

After Yuuto received 1200 rea, which are today’s income, he went out the adventurer guild with a satisfied expression.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

On the way back, Yuuto decided to purchase maid outfits for Spica and Sylphia in a slave trading post.

The price was 2000 rea including knee-socks, garter belt and headbands. It’s expensive but it will be worth it with the quality and comfort and the material that was used which feels good.

There was trouble when trying to buy maid outfits before because— Because funds were necessary to successfully bid on Sylphia, I held back my tears and endured it then.

I want to see the appearance of the two wearing maid outfits already.

Yuuto then purchased new underwear and gloves to hide slave contract marks after buying two maid outfits.
I quicken my pace and headed towards the inn.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

「…Kuu… Is milord a mean person? To make me who is a knight… wear a maid outfit…what a disgrace…」
After returning to the inn, Yuuto decided to dress Spica and Sylphia with maid outfits right away.

Sylphia, who was wearing a maid outfit, bitterly pulls down the skirt.

「Sylphia, it suits you very well.」

On the other hand, Spica, which originally works as a maid in an inn, doesn’t resist the maid outfit that much.

「Indeed, this was more than excepted to be honest.」

Spica and Sylpia.
Yuuto, who is being surrounded by two maids, was filled with a sense of fulfilment.

Yuuto thinks.

A beautiful girl with beast ears.
A busty beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes.

The two girls have different charms despite having the same appearance, the maid outfits are still wonderful wherever you are.
二人の外見は同じ美少女でも趣が異なるのだが、どちらにも萌えてしまうあたりメイド服の万能感は凄い。

(God awful: I’m not so sure about the last paragraph….)
(As expected… there isn’t a beautiful girl who doesn’t look good in a maid outfit.)

Yuuto, while thinking of such, looks at the absolute territory between the knee-socks and the skirt slowly thoroughly enjoying it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

「Then Spica, it’s about time we start a special magic training.」

Yuuto proposed while admiring the two in maid outfits.

「Yes, but, even so… Doing it in front of Sylphia…」

Spica’s cheeks blushes and becomes flustered.

「Would Sylphia be unrelated? And we aren’t doing anything that we should be guilty about. This is magic training after all.」

「…Yes, I understand. If that is what master desires.」

「???」

(God awful: Yay~ Break~)
Sylphia, who listened to the two talk, has a question mark floating above her head.

Because— the atmosphere of the two doesn’t feel like an atmosphere that seriously trains magic.

However, Sylphia’s question will be answered immediately.

Yuuto casts a spell while holding up his right hand.

「…Wind!」

Shortly after, a gust of wind blew out of nowhere in the room.

Spica’s skirt was rolled up gently by the wind.
And the colour of Spica’s underwear today is–

Kyaa!!

「Light blue.」

Yuuto, which heard the lovely scream of Spica, wears a satisfied slime.

「Fun (Hmph). To raise a cunning scream, do you intend to deceive my eyes with the underwear which I gave you and have a neat and clean impression!? I knew it, Spica thinks vulgar things all the time because she is one! 」

「U-Uu… It’s cruel, master…」

「This bitch! There! This is not the time to be resting! Hurry up and quickly show your underwear! Wind! 」

Hyaan!!

Spica receives the wind magic of Yuuto and openly shows her underwear without any resistance.

Sylphia was stunned witnessing what happened.

「W-W-W-Wha… What is this!?」

「What, you say? As you can see, it’s magic training.」

「…Training!? Is there such a shameful training!? 」

Sylphia becomes enraged while her cheeks turned red.

For Sylphia, which was born and raised at the home of the knight and lived a cleanly life, the exchange of the two was too stimulating.

「Sylphia, if it’s alright, would you like to participate too?」

「W-What a foolish thing to say! There would be no way that I, who is a knight, will choose to participate in such a shameless event! 」

Sylphia denies it verbally, but Yuuto was already aware with her feelings.

Yuuto was able to sense it since he reached the age of discretion simply because it was him which was the owner of a sadistic propensity.
物心付いたときからサディスティックな性癖の持主であった悠斗だからこそ察知することが出来た。

(God awful: Halp.) (Aten: i don’t know either)

Perhaps Sylphia will… have the same masochistic disposition as Spica.

Yuuto guessed.

For Sylphia to be raised in a strict knight household, I wonder if she can become honest with herself?

(If that’s the case… I must push Sylphia’s back.)

「Hmm. Then…【Tell me your true intention.】」

Yuuto, seized with mysterious sense of obligation, gave orders to Sylphia using force by the subordination contract.
「Fue~, it’s just you two who are slyly flirting! I also want to join… Hah! 」

Sylphia holds down her mouth while sweating a lot on her forehead.

「T-That not it! What I said just now was just a jest! 」

It’s not possible to match the very decent in the eyes of shame. Sylphia was so confused that you might say that this is the best in my life so far.
羞恥心のあまりまともに目を合わせることが出来ない。
シルフィアはこれまでの人生の中で過去最高と言っても差し支えない程に狼狽していた。

(God awful: Can’t understand it.)

「Hmm, Is, Sylphia, by any chance… A super-masochist that loves being tormented by another person? 」

「Don’t be silly! The present words are inexcusable despite it being the words of milord! I demand a correction! Milord…Do you intend to ridicule the house of Ruugenberuku which is full of pride!? 」
(God awful: Gonna leave the house name as it is, unless someone suggests something…)
「Hmm…【Tell me your true intention】」

「Yes! Sylphia is a super-perverted M slave which has delusions of being violated by milord every day! … Hah! 」

Sylphia’s body trembled and her eyes became watery after I made to say her shameful true intention.

(…Looks like I went too far.)

Because it was unexpected for Sylphia to be having such delusions.
Yuuto remembered the sense of guilt that can’t be said.

「Ah, It’s alright. Recently, my hearing has become bad. I didn’t hear anything.」

「…………」

「Yes, because this is just a simple magic training. There’s nothing to feel guilty about. It’s great that Sylphia helped me train.」

Yuuto, which judged that Sylphia’s heart might still be hurt, decided to put a follow up indirectly.

「… T-That’s right. Training. Certainly if it’s for training… There’s nothing to feel guilty about.」

Sylphia muttered the excuse to herself.

「Well, there’s no helping it. Helping with milord’s training is a natural duty of a knight. I’ll accompany milord too.」

To speak of such words while being bashful.

(Oh… Is it possible to see Sylphia’s underwear every night with this?)

Yuuto’s tension went up unintentionally with Sylphia’s participation declaration.

With the participation of the two beautiful girls–.
The magic training of the day will progress in various ways.

By the way, the color of Sylphia’s underwear was pure white.

Let’s Find a Weakness

「Master! The weakness of the red slime is water magic! Master might be able to beat the demon if you use water magic! 」

Spica points the red slime which absorbed the fire magic and enlarged.

「I see…」

Yuuto, who receives Spica’s warning, holds out his right hand and casts a spell.

(Water-!!)

Immediately after, water jets out forcefully from Yuuto’s right hand.

Yuuto, who improved control of his magic, adjusted its power to maximum.

BI-GI-!!

Scream of death was heard from the red slime which was flooded with water magic and becomes white smoke.
水魔法を浴びたレッドスライムは、モクモクと白煙を上げらながらも断末魔の悲鳴を上げる。

(Gd awful: It’s something about the red slime turning in to a white smoke after dying…. Can’t describe it well…)

Result.
Only the nucleus, which was the thin skin and the centre of the, red slime remained in that place.

Realizing that the battle ended, Yuuto heaves a sigh of relief.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

「I was surprised that master was able to use 《Fire Magic》 too!」

「Impressive! Was milord a 《Duo》 magician which handles 《Fire Magic》 and 《Water Magic》 at the same time? 」

Spica and Sylphia, which watched how the fight went, sent a look of respect to Yuuto.

Because—it’s because a human being in this world can only use one magic attribute.

Human beings which are able to manipulate 2 magic attributes are called Duo, and it is said that there’s only a probability of 1 person out of 10,000 of them being born.

Furthermore–.

A human being, Trinity, which can manipulate 3 attributes are one of a million people.

A human being, Quartet, which can manipulate 4 attributes are one in 100 million people.

The rarity degree increases by a hundred fold each time.

「Aa… Yes… But…」

As for things like this, showing it will probably be faster than describing it.

Yuuto, who judged so, decided to use《Fire Magic》, 《Water Magic》, 《Wind Magic》 and 《Holy Magic》 one after another.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

「「……!?」」

Spica and Sylphia couldn’t believe their eyes.
The reason is because they didn’t expect their master to be a 《Quartet》 magician which is born in just 1 in 100 million.

「It’s wonderful! Master! It’s too wonderful! 」

「…I’m surprised! I did not think that I would be able to meet a 《Quartet》magician while I live. 」

Excitement can be heard from the two’s speech.

「Well, I may not be useful for combat at the moment.」

Yuuto immediately denies Sylphia with a wry slime.

「There is no such things! Fire magic is known to be the most useful in battle among major attributes. Milord’s martial arts are certainly terrific. However, depending on the weakness of the enemy, there will be demons that can be damaged with physical attacks.」

「Weakness… huh…」

I fully realized it in the battle with the red slime a while ago.

Although I wasn’t aware of it at all, it might be necessary to consider it a little from now on.

「Aa, that reminds me. What kind of magic does Sylphia use? 」

「My attribute is 《Wind》. Because magic attributes are often to be inherited from parent… In my case, my whole family has 《Wind Magic》」

I was able to sense an edge of self-mockery from Sylphia’s words.
(God awful: Thanks Unknown and Gawd. :3)

「Is 《Wind Magic》perhaps a weak magic in this world?」

When Yuuto asked, Sylphia nods with consent

「Yes. Wind magic has neither the offensive ability of… fire magic, the versatility of water magic, the convenience of holy magic, or the rarity of curse magic. 」
「ああ。風属性には……炎属性のような攻撃力も、水属性のような汎用性も、聖属性のような利便性も、呪属性のような希少性もないからな」

(God awful: Don’t understand but she’s comparing Wind Magic to the other magic and bashing it as well. Also….. Not sure about the last line, it’s either that one or there’s a curse magic.)

(Aten: reading the translation is seems to be more along the lines of “the rarity of curse magic”

Sylphia then takes out the sword which was placed on her waist.

Soon after, Sylphia swings the sword.
A blade of sharp wind occurred after it.

(This is… the so called sonic boom, huh..?)

The sonic boom, which was shaped like a half-moon, disappeared in the place where it flew which is approximately 7 meters. Power seems to have left Sylphia’s body as to separate from it…

「As can be seen, there isn’t enough power to defeat a demon with a single blow… It’s best to not use it in a 1-on-1 battle.」

「… I see.」

Apparently, Wind magic alone seems to be extremely difficult.
Yuuto, who possesses four kinds of magic, will also voice a complaint when the one and only magic that he’s born with was Wind Magic.
どうやら風魔法はそれ単体では、色々と使いどころが難しいらしい。
4種類の魔法を所持している悠斗ならともかく、生まれ持った魔法が風属性の1種類だけだと不満の1つでも零したくもあるだろう。

(God awful: Second sentence, close enough… English halp.)

「Aa, but won’t wind magic be useful when protecting yourself against firearms?」

Sylphia slowly nodded at my question.

「Certainly… The offensive power is low. Wind magic might be excellent as defense magic.  The arrow’s orbit that was shot by an enemy can be changed forcibly.」

「Then there’s no problem. As I said, I was the tank, right? The role of Sylphia was to protect a friend. Wind magic… doesn’t it fit Sylphia? 」

「…!? I see. It can be thought of like that.」

Yuuto’s words sinks to Sylphia’s heart.

「Thank you, milord. For the first time… I was able to think that being given wind magic is good.」

Sylphia had a radiant smile as if evil spirits fell.
シルフィアは憑き物が落ちたかのような晴れやかな笑みを浮かべていた。

(God awful: Yeah, no idea.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then after Yuuto continued to properly hunt slowly.
He decided to finish today’s expedition.

Bat x 8
Red Slime x 8
Blue Slime x 8

It is the number of demons which was subjugated today.
The amount of the subjugation was low as the expedition was made with the purpose of inspection.

The final status is as follows.

Konoe Yuuto
Unique Ability: 【Ability Looting】【Slave Contract】【Demon Eyes】【Transparent】【Alarm Bell】
Magic: Fire Magic Lv3 (22/30)
Water Magic Lv3 (1/30)
Wind Magic Lv3 (20/30)
Holy Magic Lv2 (5/20)
Trait: Fire Resistant Lv3 (1/30)
Water Resistant Lv3 (0/30)
Wind Resistant Lv2 (14/20)

There wasn’t any change that can be seen except from fire resistant and water resistant that rose to 2 to 3.

The reason why the number of subdued demons does not match with the earned experience was because of the examination of the ability looting.

It’s decided that the full-scale money raising starts tomorrow.

Yuuto, who judged so, aimed for the town Expein.

The Counterattack of the Red Slime

Currently, Yuuto is able to handle 4 types of magic which are 《Fire Magic》, 《Water Magic》,《Wind Magic》 and 《Holy Magic》.
Among these, Yuuto still doesn’t have any experience in using 《Fire Magic》.

As for the reason why, 《Fire Magic》 isn’t a magic where you can carelessly hit something.

Yuuto has been basically training in the room of the inn up until now.
If he makes a mistake while learning how to use it, it’ll be catastrophic.

Fire Magic Lv 3
Available Magic: Fire Bomb

Like 《Water Magic》 and 《Wind Magic》, when 《Fire Magic》reached Lv 3, I unlocked bomb magic.

Against demons, I want to verify how much damage it can give.
Thinking about it, I have no experience subduing a demon using magic.

「Master, I think that there’s one red slime up ahead.」

「Right, I understand. You two don’t interfere this time because I want to fight this one by myself.」

After getting the consent of the two, Yuuto went to the direction which Spica indicated.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Red Slime – Threat Lv 1

After walking for a while, I encountered the demon that I was aiming for.

There’s only one, the ideal partner to test hitting it with magic.

I had the habit of not attacking it if it did not approach 5 metres of distance because slime-based demon have extremely low vision.

Yuuto quickly lessens the distance between him and the slime.

Then, holding up his right hand, he chanted a spell in his mind.

(…Firebomb!)

A sphere of about 10cm in diameter immediately emerged from Yuuto’s palm.

The power was high in bomb magic but its range is short.
As a precaution to not get caught in the explosion, Yuuto went back three steps and decided to see what will happen.

The magical sphere, which continues to move in a slow speed, exploded with the range of approximately 1 metre.

After an intense explosive sound was heard, a terrible hot wind rages in the vicinity.

「Oh…!」

Its power exceeded Yuuto’s expectation.
The lethality of it is extremely higher even if it’s the same kind of magic as 《Water Magic》 and《Wind Magic》.

When hit directly, a human head will be blown away easily.

The range of the bomb magic is fatally short.

The result of training the control of magic everyday has improved.
I have a feeling that the flying distance increased to some extent when compared with the past.

None the less, it seems like it’s far from giving damage to the red slime–.

Piki-!

The red slime, after noticing that it was being attacked, springs towards Yuuto.

Only the cry is cute, but I mustn’t be deceived.
A creature which you can see its transparent internal organs can only be described as grotesque.

「…Oops.」

Yuuto dodges it with room to spare.

(Aside from Sylphia… Even if I get covered by the body fluid of something sticky, who will profit from it…)

It’s better to throw the stone which was in my pocket to defeat it but, this is special, so different magic will also be tried.
Holding up his right hand, he chanted a spell.

(… Fire!)

An intense fire is released from the end of Yuuto’s palm.

The amount of fire far exceeded Yuuto’s expectation.
If it’s this, I would be able to inflict a considerable burn on a human target if I shoot it.

(Fire magic seems to have high killing and wounding ability overall…)

The body of the red slime is wrapped in a flame of the flaming red which burns down the whole red slime for Yuuto.

Just as planned.

Red Slime – Threat Lv 8

(God awful: Oooh, stuff’s about to go down.)

「What!? 」

Yuuto steps back in surprise, the red slime which bathed in intense flame increased its volume for approximately 3 times.

Its threat level also increased of Lv 1 to Lv 8.

The highest threat that Yuuto fought up until now was Lv 8.

「Master, please be careful! The red slime’s power seems to increase temporarily when it bathed in flame! 」

「Are you serious…」

I was careless.
Because the ability that I could acquire by ability looting was 《Fire-tolerant》, I expected that I was strong in fire magic somehow.

I didn’t expect it to become strong when it’s exposed to flame.

「…!?」

(God awful: I love you dots, making my work easier~)

Then Yuuto heard a small 「Pii-! 」out of nowhere.
It took him a moment to understand that it was due to the effect of the skill which he acquired the other day.

Alarm Bell – Rarity ☆☆☆☆☆
(A skill which rings a sound that is only heard by the skill holder. The volume of the sound increases according to the degree of risk.)

The volume of the sound is very weak.
That means that the degree of risk of the opponent before then wasn’t that high for Yuuto.

(Nevertheless… It is certain that it’s an opponent who may threaten my life.)

It didn’t ring when I fought a threat Lv 1 slime and a threat Lv 2 bat.

Therefore, it’s certain that this slime is a demon whom Yuuto should be cautious of.

Bi-gi-!

The tone of the enlarged red slime’s cry became low.

「…tto.」

(God awful: SFX for dodging.)

Yuuto lightly dodges the attack of the red slime.
The speed seemed to drop considerably as much as its body enlarged.

(However… what to do…)

Until now, Yuuto can subdue slime by throwing stones at it.

But as expected, throwing stones won’t be able to subdue something this big.

 

(I didn’t think that the enemy which rings the alarm bell for the first time is a… red slime…)

Yuuto was worried for the formidable enemy whom had appeared unexpectedly.
