(Day 61)

For the first time in a while, I went hunting with Gobkichi.

That's when we witness 12 human troops traveling at a quick pace.

Change of plan. Let's follow them, Gobkichi!

Yeah!

When we were stalking them, we took a position in front of their path...

...and disappear.

And when I eavesdrop on them secretly,

I found that their goal was to kidnap the daughter of the elf clan head.

They must be targeting elves returning from the Albell festival.

I learned that some elves must have leaked this information.

Two hours after the sunset...

Here they are.

So she's the head's daughter.

I know elves are beautiful by nature, but this one's beauty is an exception.

As long as I wanted to see it unfold, I didn't want to have remorse about this.

Aren't those heavy, Gobkichi?

Not a problem, really.

The least I can do is to pray they rest in peace.

There's no meaning, set me free

It's useless, don't care about me baby, I'm burning, yeah

Be reborn on this stage

We're gonna run this town tonight

Let's get started

Into the fire

A story one can't rob of, simply living alone

It's a storm outside, stormy

Ringing bell, ding ding dong, like King Kong

The top 10 tasks, proclaiming one as captain

Can't stop, Re: Monster A reincarnation from zero, big game

Be on a gambling spree as I am

But I don't care, we get the dough

Hey, can you see me? Look forward to it

I wear my beanie deep in the city

I don't hate this battle I get paid double as I am reborn

The glory I've devoured will become my flesh and blood

There's no meaning, set me free

It's useless, don't care about me baby, I'm burning, yeah

Be reborn on this stage

We're gonna run this town tonight

Let's get started into the fire

You know life's a game All the absolutes are fake

Break all common sense

Through the fire, live the present

You know life's a game All the absolutes are fake

Break all common sense

Through the fire, now we out here

(Day 62)

Well, about the 12 humans (Day 62)

we captured alive... (Day 62)

- I will speak! I will!

- According to him, - I will speak! I will!

- the assault will begin in 20 days. - I'm begging you, please spare me!

Oh, finally awake?

Those wings... she's really different from other elves.

Where is this? Where are my guards?

Don't tell me...

Ah, calm down...

Do you plan on soiling my chastity?

What a wild imagination you have...

I apologize for running my mouth like that.

After she calmed down, (I made this tea!)

I told her what happened. (It's made from soothing herbs)

Impossible! Weren't there any ways to save them?

- You just stood there and watched,

- Yeah, of course she's angry... - You just stood there and watched,

- Yeah, of course she's angry... - how could you do a cruel thing like that?!

So cruel! You are cruel to the bone!

See, it's just we don't concern ourselves with the quarrel between humans and elves.

Also, there may be traitors among your kin.

Huh? What?

If you have time to be distraught,

don't you think it's better to use it to solve this problem?

Today's already late. Get some rest and we'll escort you tomorrow.

Oh wow! You picked up a beautiful elf today, eh?

Can I have a taste?

Absolutely don't lay a finger on her!

Oh, you and your cold shoulder.

(Day 63)

Today we will escort her, so we'll leave (Day 63)

as soon as possible. (Day 63)

Oh, by the way, about those wings on your back...

Eh?

Ah, those are...

Only high elves have them.

They're usually hidden inside our bodies.

High Elf is a ranked-up elf. And they can fly with those wings.

We don't normally show them to the outsiders,

but because I'm still green, I accidentally reveal them when startled.

After that, we walked for three hours.

When we arrived at the elf village...

There are roughly 25 of them, and those arrowheads are made from Mithril.

But as ogres, we could easily stand a few dozen shots of them.

Please wait! They are the benefactors that saved me!

There was a quarrel for a short time, but they pardoned us and let us in.

Dear Father!

Apologies for making you worry.

There is no need to apologize. You are safe and sound, that's all I care about.

And I shall give you my thanks for saving my daughter.

I am this village's chief.

Now, let's get to the point.

I didn't save your daughter out of kindness.

Oh, you want rewards?

Come, fetch that.

Understood.

This reward will decide her child's value.

This is a good chance to tell if he could make decisions calmly.

Failnot.

(Failnot [Artifact] [Ancient] class) It's one of our heirlooms, a magic item.

(Failnot [Artifact] [Ancient] class) Dear Father?

They did return you safely.

This is my gratitude.

I'm sorry for testing you like this.

It's not much as a gift in return, but I have some useful information for you.

Oh?

And what kind of information might that be?

Something like the movement of the human troops.

I think we can build a great mutual relationship.

I received lots of Mirthil materials from the Elf Father.

We were given spirit stone knives, some kind of shovel-type magic items,

and the deal was concluded.

Say, I would like to ask you something I'm unsure about...

Yes?

It's been a long time since our elite troops left the village,

do you happen to know anything about them?

Of course I do not! Ahahaha!

As we were about to leave, we were given a souvenir.

These are secret medicines and alcohol made by this village.

I hope these suit your taste.

Please do call us if you run into any trouble! We'll keep it cheap for you!

Tasty!

What's this refreshing-intense-flavored drink?

More reason to strengthen our relationship with the elves.

(Day 64)

Hey, Gobmi. It's morning already. wake up.

She evolved into a Dhampir variant just this morning.

Not just her, we also have eight new hobgoblin!

Gobmi, make sure to not remove your glasses except when you're facing the enemy, okay?

Woah.

Understood.

Thanks to her Blessing of the God of ice,

([Mist Dress of the Undead Queen]) Thanks to her Blessing of the God of ice,

([Mist Dress of the Undead Queen]) She can now generate and manipulate...

(Sword [Drops of Moonlight]) ...a large amount of ice.

([Glasses of Evil Eye Sealing]) A rather useful ability that she has,

is the Bewitching Evil Eye which can turn enemies to attack each other.

With the power of Divine Protection, her weakness of sunlight was negated.

But...

Her appearance seems rather familiar...

Something in my eyes?

Nope. I was just charmed. That's all.

My...

Hey, didya wait?

([Warpick of Mother Earth]) Gobe has evolved to Half Earth Lord.

([Shovel of Mother Earth]) Gobe has evolved to Half Earth Lord.

(The large bandage she wears) Gobe has evolved to Half Earth Lord.

(also is a magic item) Gobe has evolved to Half Earth Lord.

Earth Lord's abilities are terrain manipulation,

geological insight that can spot weak parts of the bedrock,

physical strength ability, and ore detecting magic ability.

Look at this, Sei.

(Sword [Bloody Empress]) And Hobsato evolved to Half Blood Lord.

(The sword, armor,) And Hobsato evolved to Half Blood Lord.

(and cloak are magic items) And Hobsato evolved to Half Blood Lord.

Half Blood Lord can manipulate blood and use it as a weapon.

Anyways...

They have similar tattoos to mine despite being in different shapes and places.

Everyone says that their power seems to flow from there,

so I'd like to learn about them.

Oh, you are evolving again.

We got to give you new names afterward, yes?

(Spellsei [Hobsei], Bloodsato [Hobsato]) Hobsei will become Spellsei,

(Bloodsato [Hobsato], Dhami [Gobmi]) Gobmi is Dhami,

(Bloodsato [Hobsato], Dhami [Gobmi]) Hobsato will be Bloodsato,

(Dhami [Gobmi], Earthe [Gobe]) and Gobe is Earthe.

Gobkichi will be Ogrekichi,

- Gobji is Hobji, and Gobrou is Ogrou.

- As long as we can tell each other apart. - Gobji is Hobji, and Gobrou is Ogrou.

- As long as we can tell each other apart. - Gobji is Hobji, and Gobrou is Ogrou.

(11. Goblin, 8. Human, 8. Hobgoblin, 8 Kobold,)

(7. Foot Soldier, 6. Elf, 5. Ogre,) To put into perspective, this is the rank

(2. Half Blood Lord, 2. Half Earth Lord.) To put into perspective, this is the rank

(2. Half Spell Lord, 1 Dhampir) based on the average strength.

If the war between elves and humans are to burst,

it's almost certain that the elf chief will request our support.

The more men you have, the more strategy you can devise.

And so, I distributed the communication earcuffs.

But...

No way! We will not put that on no matter what!

For elves, decorating their ears is taboo!

Well, I have no choice.

It took me a long time,

but I did shatter those elves' pride to make them more cooperative.

Once the earcuffs have been distributed to the elves and kobolds,

today's training participants have increased in numbers.

After that, I order them to do a mock battle.

With the ability of...

...Lesser Undead Skeleton Plant I learned the other day,

I summoned not a normal skeleton, but a black one.

And with some equipment too.

With more equipment covering the skeleton, the higher the cost.

Even equipped with Mithril weaponry sufficient to take down an undead,

those elves couldn't win much. Yet they looked relieved.

As expected, it's better to become friends naturally like this.

(Day 65)

If I suppress my magic output, (Black Skeleton Knight)

I can also summon skeletons, (Zombie)

zombies, and other undead. (Black Skeleton Mage)

(Black Skeleton Mage)

I wonder what they tasted like,

but I can't eat a ghost without substance.

Using undead that suits each one's ability

is good for training and increasing their experience,

but once they're exposed to sunlight, they'll disappear in just 10 seconds.

I can't use them during the day...

The elves and kobolds carried out their training diligently.

(Total inhabitants: 136)

Anyways, we have more than (Total inhabitants: 136)

hundreds of people in the community now, (Total inhabitants: 136)

and among them, the kobolds are the weakest. (Total inhabitants: 136)

- Can I have those zombies, please? - At this rate, they'll hardly survive.

- Aren't eating rotting flesh dangerous? - You've no choice but to train like hell.

That's precisely why it's good.

(Day 66)

Today we went to the cavern (Day 66)

where the kobolds used to live. (Day 66)

Once we're done with our luggage, Earthe is taking care of the rest.

Right'o!!!

With this, there should be no more skeletons coming out.

And then moving on.

Group hunting training for the kobolds.

We need more Black Wolf familiars,

and their movement is more agile than I expected.

In the end, we managed to capture 20 wolves.

While there seemed to be no leader of the pack,

They're pretty well-organized to serve as our familiars.

On our way back, we came across a Stamp Boar known for their sturdiness.

Hard as rock? Let's try 'em!

Sorry, yeah!

- I kinda overdid it. - That night, we enjoy a stew for dinner.

Amazing!

Over there,

the battle-torn halberd I used against the Red Bear has taken a new shape.

(Rear end: Earth Spirit Gem; amplify earth ability)

(Pick: Fire Spirit Gem; flame the gushed spot) Somehow, she managed to restore

(Axe head: Water Spirit Gem;) and revised the parts...

(water blade, improved sharpness) ...with Mithril and spirit stone alloy.

(Spear: Lightning Spirit Gem;) ...with Mithril and spirit stone alloy.

(distant strike (piercing shots)) ...with Mithril and spirit stone alloy.

I did my best, you know?

Still, this is amazing!

Since when were you able to do this?

About that...

She earned a rare job because she mastered the use of spirit stone,

and ranked up to Elemental Smith.

(Day 67)

Today, the kobolds continue (Day 67)

to hunt by themselves, (Day 67)

and I also go hunting for a Stamp Boar. (Day 67)

Hm?

Well, what is it?

Please listen to me and don't laugh.

You see, I... I always liked Earthe.

I'm sorry, it must be surprising...

Nah. I kinda sensed that in you.

What?

I mean you're so easy to read!

R-Really?

Yes.

Earthe has become more beautiful since she evolved.

L-Looking at her... it's impossible to keep my feelings at bay!

But I don't know how I tell her!

- I beg you, tell me, - Right now, inside my chest is burning!

- how can we be together? - Right now, inside my chest is burning!

Tell me, Ogrou!

That being said, give your all tonight!

T-Tonight?

It will be fine!

The earlier you confess and fail, the sooner you forget before you realize it!

When you're done, tell me how it went tomorrow morning!

Something you need, Kichi?

I...

I wanna... I wanna be happy together with you!

Um... Kichi...

Me...

(Day 68)

That's a good hit I took...

My body feels amazingly light today!

It's the first time I've felt this strong!

All thanks to you, Ogrou!

You are very welcome.

The confession plan was a success!

Truth is, yesterday,

Earthe also consulted Dhami for the same thing,

so Dhami and I made the preparation for these two.

Ogrekichi is so fired up today.

I wonder if Earthe's body is still intact.

Ogrou!

Done with the training already?

Seeing her like this, I have no worries.

He's so energetic and strong that I had to leave him with Black Skeleton.

Ahahaha! Sorry!

After training, the four of us go hunting together.

We found many monsters we hadn't seen before,

It's very suitable to collect shell material.

(Ability "Weakness to Cold" Learned) Iron Shell Armor, Cold Vulnerability.

Exoskeleton, huh?

Let's give it a try.

I looked like one of those transforming superheroes.

Except for its given sturdiness,

it also has self-healing and impact absorption properties.

Well, the only downside is that it looks conspicuous.

Do you think so? I find it really cool.

Moreover, I'm totally fine with my casual clothes.

It appears that my clothes were used as the main material for the armor.

The memento I made from Red Bear vanished in an instant!

([Exoskeleton ability] 【1】 [Red Bear Beast King's Prestige] registered)

(4 forms remaining. Do you want to put an entry?)

I see!

I can register any form from air to naval battles!

Elytron Plant seems to be able to grow pairs of insect wings,

but it's hard to control. I have to practice it after this!

He fell...

Not bad, Ogrou.

We brought Stamp Boar meat as a souvenir and ate it with everyone.

This was truly a well-spent day.

(Ability "Rampage" Learned) Reckless Charge, Tail attack.

(Ability "Tail Attack" Learned) Reckless Charge, Tail attack.

(Day 69)

How long it's been since the last rain? (Day 69)

No helping it. I guess we'll just get crafty today.

Ah, Ogrou! We're sparing now! Come on!

The Redhead has had a steady growth.

Recently she's been pestering me to train with her.

She had that image of a puppy, but now...

...I think she's more like a Doberman.

And so, I spend this morning training with the Redhead.

Having sweated enough, I went to visit the Blacksmith's workshop.

Recently, these two elves had been visiting her a lot,

- Did you prepare those Mirthil for me? - and giving their assessment

- Thanks. - to the Blacksmith's work.

- Oh no. This is also part of our research. - By the way,

- Oh no. This is also part of our research. - these two names were Kille and Alle.

- these two names were Kille and Alle.

Mithril will be turned into Amalgam and then processed.

The alloy used to repair my halberd the other day is also one kind of those.

Right now, they're working on a prototype of a rapid-fire crossbow...

...but its performance is sufficient, so I asked for a mass production right away.

- With this, you can build a weapon anytime!

- I also gave them some Amalgam. - With this, you can build a weapon anytime!

Leave it to me!

At night, I helped cook with the twins.

- Soup plate, please!

- These two also have a new job... - Soup plate, please!

- ...called "Cook Chief" - Have you served it yet?

After dinner,

- Amazing! It's so crispy! - I recreated dishes from my previous life.

Like potato chips.

It's a cooking I never heard before, but it's very interesting.

The harder it is to make, the more it's worth researching!

Afterward, I went to the Alchemist to have a session on working on magical items.

The Black Skeleton's bones were really helpful.

This bone has the power to temporarily stitch anyone stabbed by it.

This is my first fruit of work since I became "Item Creator."

Please treat this as an extension of myself.

I was struck by her unusual behavior.

And after that...

Oh? Sneaking out in the dark again?

What happened after that...

It's better not to talk about...

(Day 70)

Ogrou! Please come! (Day 70)

There are some unknown elves at the entrance!

We were sent here by your friend, who is our leader.

They were passing by their old friend on their way inside,

but due to the concealment effect of the earcuff, all they saw were black elves.

The human troops have finally begun their attack on Kudel Greatwoods.

They come in large numbers, and our strength is no match for them.

Thus we come here to ask for your help.

Um... what happened to your elite troops?

T-The directive ruled that they must have died.

I-I see...

The rewards will be generous,

and our leader wishes for their total annihilation.

However, if you were to get cold feet,

we would cancel our agreement immediately.

Thank you for the warning. We accept those terms.

But you are to let us operate freely.

Deliver this to your chief.

It has a communication function.

I shall see it delivered.

Then, we'll take our leave.

Yes. Intelligence is an important weapon.

And I already sent a lot of my clones into the forest.

Si vis pacem, para bellum.

What?

Gather everyone.

It's time to show off the result of our hard work!

From today onwards, we are a mercenary group!

W-What is that?

To put it simply, we are professional fighters!

Woah!

So cool, aye!

So, what do we call ourselves?

Para Bellum.

Prepare for war, my troops!

Para Bellum!

Para Bellum!

- Para Bellum! - Para Bellum!

Para Bellum!

Now, into battle!

If I could be reborn

I wonder what I would become

The persistently repeating delusions

They overlap with the dream I once had

Reality is harsh

Bearing its fangs to me

The tip of the knife in hand

I shall stab it in the throat like a monster, a beast

Even if I'm but a small being

Even if I'm so weak and inexperienced now

If I have to protect you

No matter the steep roads ahead

I will move forward for you
