Re:Monster Day 341-350

Day 341
Holding a golden wineglass in one hand, I sat in a chair admiring the sunrise beyond the horizon.
Sometimes this kind of morning is not bad.
Thanks to my high physical recovery, my wounds have already closed but the mental fatigue still remains.
It can also be said that I have less vigor than usual.
It feels like something heavy, and somehow my movement also became slow.
Thinking about nothing, I continue to gaze at the sunrise for a while.
It is a little dazzling but, because of 【Extreme Light Resistance】, I can see it normally.
After regaining some vigor, I tried to get up.
The desire to finish the [Holy War] and lazily rest is rising, but the clean up is more important.
Before I can enjoy the hot springs, there are some various things to do from now on.
Frankly speaking, from now on, the age of civil war is approaching.
The loss of powerful 【Salvation Warriors】 is big, but the important thing is the majority of the warforce called 【Heroes】 has been lost. Thanks to that, the protection from the [Holy Kingdom] also become impossible to do.
(ED: 救聖 translated as "Salvation Warriors" refers to both Savior and the Saints)
Vassal countries can't refuse the request from the [Holy Kingdom], but it was with no good result, therefore only losing their precious 【Heroes】...... [Rotten Hero] is still living, but from now on, dissatisfaction and anxious from the small countries are accumulating.
Not only the 【Emperor】 and the 【Generals】 that followed him, along with the talented elites that were lost, but until the next generation Emperor is decided, a lot of confusion will continue and is easily to be expected inside both the [Demon Empire] and the [Beast Kingdom].
Also, the Empire has lost more than half of their 【Heroes】, including [Cloud hero]. The lost of their warforce is at the level that can't be ignored.
And other countries will seize the opportunity of the reduction of warforce to change their international approach. Especially the countries that are far away from the Holy Kingdom, which will plan to take their land.
The Holy Kingdom still have the [Holy Sages], therefore, it will not be easily defeated. However, until now, they have a history of brutally attacking and trying to conquer other countries.
There are many local people that are holding grudges. Those in the conquered lands may try to rebel and start a new country. Originally, the source of flame was already there.
This [Holy War] triggered that flame.
A Holy War incites greed and violence.
The sounds of those footsteps are heard, quietly but surely.
Those strayed ones work in favor for me, it may even give birth to new 【Heroes】.
That is what I thought of, but before taking any action, cleaning up after the party takes priority.
I stand from the chair and see the surrounding, there are many drunk people lying down in a miserable way.
The [Holy war] is winding down but this time there are approximately 2000 people attending this party.
There are a few people that are weak to alcohol, but the majority here is from the Demon species, that are big eaters and drink alcohol like water.
Also, there are giants that drank a whole different amount of alcohol, Dragon people like Ramuna and Uwabami so the cost for foods and drinks are quite costly.
Fortunately, the ingredient for cooking, "Dragon King" and "Dragon Emperor" can be obtained in mass amounts from the mountain. If that is not enough, we can just use [Demon's Howl Gate] and collect [Shokuhora seafood from the cave of the Demon] as much as we need.
But the problem is alcohol.
To provide alcohol for 2000 people means a large amount of alcohol is necessary. Also, each one of them isn't a half-assed drinker so, as expected, to make sure these people are satisfied, it is harsh even for someone like me who has a large amount of alcohol stored.
Up until now we collected alcohol by going into labyrinths, and sometimes bought it, but because of the [Holy War], we often do party through the night before so the alcohol that was stored has become less and less.
I still have enough if only for these kind of parties, but I don't know whether this amount can keep them satisfied or not.
Maybe I'll need to replenish it in between the parties.
But since I already completed the [Psalms], I got 3 kinds of demon liquor as a reward. That may solve the problem.
Although the taste is a little mild compared to the demon liquor that I've obtained back then, the ability to replenish itself over time is the same. And also, I've already put it into large barrels so I have a large amount of it.
In other words, I have an endless supply of alcohol.
This is good for lining up the demon liquor and binging.
There are a few drunk people brawling, but regardless of race, people are laughing, exchanging drinks, remembering their fallen comrades, and laughing some more.
Such a party will eventually fade out in the morning but as a result, there will be mountains of miserable drunk people.
They have experienced the [Holy war]. There is in some part of the demon species's ritual which consists of drinking to ease the grief of the eternal farewell, but I think they drank too much.
They feast until even the strong ones are down, various dirty things like vomit is scattered everywhere. It mixes with the smell of alcohol, and it's a little irritating.
Sigh....
Anyway, I asked Seiji to recover them from this miserable drunk state.
Seiji agreed and release a radiant warm light, and soon the people are waking up one after another. They start to clean up the scattered dragon meat dishes.
I drink my alcohol from the golden wineglass, while watching them.
The alcohol that I drank is the one that I got recently [Demon Liquor of the Demon Heavenly God] . It has a color like the sky and is a unique dry alcohol.
At first, it has a refreshing taste, then, in the middle, it has a strong stimulating taste.
And it works well alongside the grilled Dragon meat with "Shiden Radish"
It's also juicy when chewed. The dragon meat alone will have a very strong taste but with spicy refreshing taste from the "Shiden Radish", with the dry taste of the alcohol, has an excellent compatibility.
Mmmnnh, with this rich flavor in my mouth, no matter how much I ate of it, I couldn't get tired of it.
Unintentionally, my cheeks loosen and my drinking pace increased.
I still want to eat but the clean up is almost finished, so I endured and moved on.
First, I must return them to their posts.
Some of the 2000 remaining member from before the [Holy War] are working in the local shop, and some of them were even dispatched from the "Great Forest".
Right now, the members who are not participate in the [Holy war] are doing their best to work, but their work has increased, just because there aren't enough people.
This event already ended and everyone also had a rest, so it's time for them to return. The members who have been working deserve some rest though. I will order them to finish the preparations quickly.
As a part of the preparation, we also bring gifts. A chunk of dragon meat is the main gift, but we also bring 3 kinds of demon liquor inside bottles and barrels.
Even if we don't meet up, all members will surely enjoy it.
But the amount of food they receive is low compared to the one that participates, they must understand the difference because the guys risked their life for it.
Anyway, we will also return by diving to 【Demon's Howl Gate】 through the nearest Labyrinth, but this time is very noticeable time. We must split into a smaller groups and sequentially move out.
After that, first I will send a Black Dragon as a messenger to each country.
And then briefly talk about victory and defeat, I will tell them [What a great fight, lets put that into consideration and have a good sleep, when we wake up lets enjoy a good peace].
It's like I'm the 【Demon King】 that conquered the world---- it truly exists in this world but doesn't seem to have the ambition to do that I think. For now, these kinds of things are nice.
Rather than making plans left and right, the simplest one is easy to understand and easy to deal with if the confusion is happening.
After also giving various instructions besides that, we dive into 【Demon's Howl Gate】 to 【Rock Hero】's place.
With this degree of [Holy war], the surviving members from both Alliance forces and Coalition forces are few.
The 【Salvation Warriors】 have become white sand, the 【Emperor】 alongside his subordinates died, the majority of 【Heroes】 were scattered.
The ones remaining are [Cloud hero] who ran away with [Lightning hero], [Rotten Hero] who has common ground with Aifu, thus overcoming the [Holy War], the [Meal Hero] that I've already captured, and [Rock Hero] who is tied with a secret agreement and has been in the 【Gambling House Of Oni's Howl】 prior to the event.
Among these 4 【Heroes】, Rock Hero is the one I have less information on.
For now, annihilation issues are ordered but I won't give the details and explain it, because it is too troublesome.
But that leave some small problems, even though it is a facade, I have the obligation to explain when [Rock Hero] returns.
Other countries will most probably pursue him because of a suspected relationship with me, so there are many things he has to know.
And after explaining about it, when we dive into 【Demon's Howl Gate】 to welcome him, we found [Rock Hero] in the place where the previous Avenger participated in the gambling arena.
But, [Rock Hero]'s condition is quite different than the one before.
He hide his face with Gray ash made by an iron rock mask and shamelessly show off his hefty body with a boomerang pants figure. He doesn't seems to wear any wearable armor-like armor, and is fighting with what seems like an iron rock hammer with one hand.
The enemy is a dungeon monster, the golem species called "Black Dra-goyle". A mix of dragon and gargoyle, it's a rock-like statue with a surface dyed with black.
The combat power itself is not that high but, whether because of my presence or not, it seems even though it is a rock statue, it has greater protection than magic metal.
With a half assed weapon, you can't make a scratch on it, and it must be surprisingly difficult to defeat the 3 meter tall "Black Dra-goyle".
It has been challenged and already defeat many.
Not only that, the multiplication rate is high, and it rewards the winner appropriately too.
I wonder why that "Black Dra-goyle" and Rock hero are fighting.
There must be something, and that reason lies in the visitor seat. When we asked about [Rock Hero]'s comrades that seems to have more jewelry than before, it seems Rock hero bet various things in the slot and lost continuously. It seems he bet his body to earn some funds.
For now, it seems he hadn't bet his armor nor has he lost his power yet.
It seems he regained his self-control at the last minute, but to see the serious [Rock hero] fallen figure reminded me of a certain father elf.
But, father elf is better. He spent on hot spring and massage.
In contrast, [Rock Hero] has fallen into a swamp of gambling.
For now, I will advise him to not fall any lower than this.
After that, somehow I sent [Rock hero] off to the Kingdom.
Even when I said sent, it is only diving to 【Demon's Howl Gate】 to the 【Demon Waterfall】 in the Empire, it's not that troublesome. They already have prepared a skeleton spider to move him. After several hours, he should have made it to the Empire.
At that time, I asked the Tomboy Princess to bring the gifts.
It would have been better if I were to bring them myself, but if someone confirmed that I have been in the Kingdom, I won't be able to escape if they questioned whether I am connected to the Kingdom in the back by other country .
"Just a coincidence!" is too suspicious, I can't give that excuse to them.
So that's why, until other countries stop pursuing the Kingdom I can't meet Tomboy Princess for a while. That's why I brought luxurious gifts to her.
After that, and doing some chores, I went to sleep.

Day 342
Most of our members have gone back to their workplace, some, such as I and Kanami-chan remain at the Parabellum HQ to continue work on the aftermath of the war.
I am reviewing the battle results of those members who participated in the war, to be able to distribute rewards accordingly.
There was a lot of work to be done after the war, but it was much simpler with the use of parallel thinking, clones, and members who can handle office work such as Kanami-chan and Red Head.
I am proud that I could make a generally balanced decision, although handling all the 【Sacred Treasure】 obtained from the war is a little troublesome. Frustration is all that comes to mind.
Do I leave it in my item storage gathering dust? Eating them all at once is also another option. Should I distribute them out to the deserving members?
Distributing the 【Sacred Treasure】 will raise our war potential, and even though our members are not the original owners, they still might be able to draw out some of its powers, ones that may have been sealed before.
I wouldn't know without trying first, but if I do intended on eating the 【Sacred Treasure】, I have no doubt they would be delicious.
Though there are some disadvantages, the pros greatly outweigh the cons.
The possibility of losing the weapon in battle is not something I would want, but if it had been lost the enemy would not be able to draw out its full power due to it being lent out. (ED: I wasn’t too sure what this meant)(You got it right!)
Basically, I decided to lend them out, but I am still debating on who to give which 【Sacred Treasure】.
Obviously, those that risked life and limb will get priority of ownership.
Well, I am still going to keep more than half of the 【Sacred Treasure】 obtained in the war.
I will discuss this with members who already own a 【Sacred Treasure】 of their own, such as Minokichi-kun, as to whether or not they want them, and then they can decide who to lend them out to within their own corp.
Thinking about it that way, it seems that almost all the 【Eight Demon Generals】 decided to keep them for now.
However there was an exception, that being Aifu-chan, who had been immersed in talks about her hobbies. Although she is my friend, I would feel better if she didn’t have such a hobby. (ED: I am guessing that Aifu-chan still scares Rou so he doesn’t want to make her stronger)
When it comes to other high ranking members like Avenger and Netsuki-kun (Blaze/Fire Lord-kun), Red Head and Akitainu (Kobold Shogun); even Auro and Toro (a Troll from the Slave Army of the Empire) have higher rights to them. (ED: The higher ranked you are means you get dibs on rewards)
Avenger defeated Insect Hero, who was a sworn enemy of fate, and his [Sacred treasure] seems unnecessary. I feel nauseous just having it. I can now understand the weight that Avenger carries. (ED: I am guessing that this specific [Sacred treasure] messes with your mind making you stronger, but at the price of sanity or something)
There were also some Heroes that had mixed feelings over the war and converted to our side. (ED: 恋人の仇は討ったとて、まだ色々と気持ちの整理が 出来ていないのだろう。I believe this is what they meant)
Netsuki-kun was proof of that when the Wolf Hero wanted to work under him. Since he said he wanted to be enslaved I allowed it. (ED: Netsuki-kun had some relation to the Wolf Hero or their fates were connected and he decided to become part of Parabellum which Rou allowed)
I also have some personal interest, and he would be a good addition to our forces. I will work him hard. (ED: 丁度使う得物が剣と言う事で共通点もあり、有意義に使ってくれるだろう。I believe Rou is thinking of Wolf Hero as a tool which he will use to its fullest extent)
Red Head had some interest in the equipment she won off Ring Hero, after bloodily massacring him, so I gave it to her.
Since I have been eating many strong opponents regularly, I of course have been getting stronger, but the opponents are also becoming much stronger than before.
I have wounds all over my body, and I've also avoided some fatal injuries by a hair’s breadth. Gloating doesn’t seem totally unreasonable.
I might want to subdue the opponents later, which will be a little troublesome considering my strength now combined with the 【Sacred Treasure】.
Akitainu, who fought alone against many opponents at the cost of an arm, wanted some reward.
He stated while bowing 『With this, I will devote myself even further and prove my Lord’s strength more than ever before.』
His straightforwardness and loyalty makes me pleased to have such a loyal member.
His injured arm, resembling a mashed piece of meat, was treated by Seiji-kun to perfection, though he shouldn’t be at full strength.
With rehabilitation and practice, it will be stronger than before, which eases my mind.
In the battle, Auro killed the Bird Hero, and she wanted her weapon; I permitted it.
When testing out the abilities, it seems you can control the surrounding birds like your own limbs, and temporarily view through their eyes.
This is a benefit to Auro to have an observational ability, especially since her attack style is to shoot from long distances.
Finally Toro got a lucky kill on Ox Hero, and wanted his weapon.
Toro is a commander of 100 (his ranking in the army to have control over 100 members) in Minokichi-kun’s corp Anger/Revolution. He has the strength and unique skill much like a Giant Troll.
His style was very similar to Minokichi-kun, by holding a shield in one hand and a large weapon in the other. If I were to give him an ax type 【Sacred Treasure】, there would be no problems on his end.
This is what is expected in the future.
Well, as I finished, most of the members decided to accept the gifts, but that was obvious from the start.
It is a powerful magical item and a trophy of sorts gained from defeating a strong opponent. You would also want to have it because it might be an upgrade to your equipment.
Honestly, it wasn’t too difficult as to decide who gets what, because I just went by their contribution to the war. Thus, other miscellaneous work has ended without incidents.
Well, who is appropriate? (ED: I’m guessing Rou is still deciding on some of the rewards to distribute)
=======
Day 343
Early in the morning, Minokichi-kun asked me to help him meet the new 【Beast King】 that was born in the Beast Kingdom.
For the time being, I heard the reason for the visit is: 『Lionel and me, we exchanged words of praise in the end』. It seems that its contents are secret as he didn't tell me the details, but it seems necessary for them to meet.
When I heard that, I was convinced that I was wrong to hand off that fight.
I was quite dense at the time.
As a result of betting each other's life and fighting with full power, respect would have been born among the complicated feelings.
And it is natural that the last wishes of such a partner would definitely want to be granted.
Then, could I really call myself a good friend if I didn't help him fulfill that wish?
While thinking about seeing what to do next, we suppressed our emotions and moved on to action.
First of all, it is necessary to prepare a meeting place.
Anyway, the current new 【Beast King】 Earthty is busy.
Even before Minokichi]kun fought out his death battle with the【Beast King】, Earthty, Lionel's beloved daughter, was the strongest among the【Beast Fang Generals】, as well as being the strongest 【Earth Tiger Beast Fang General · Bifaglog】.
Afterwards, through the abilities of 【Emperor Psalm】, she became the new 【Beast King】 with 【Inheritance of the Emperor】.
However, the number of those who are not convinced seems to be high also exist in the Beast Kingdom. At least, from what I could confirm through a diverted controlled body, such as a person who moves only when they have a chance for me to succeed.
The administration of the country will change. A lot of big and small stuff will not remain untouched.
However, it is contrary to the original expectation of the country's direction, it may not be the same as the earlier story, either.
Originally Earthty was nominated domestically as a skilled person.
The fact that her abilities are real relates to the center, or body, of the Beast Kingdom if it is knocked down, so you can understand that even if it is bowled down by powerful rebels, and a part is crushed, it is acceptable as the rebound will be easier to some extent.
Well, as far as political powers, such as inventing policies to enrich the Beast Kingdom, they are unknown as it is not relevant for now, so it can be put aside.
In order to aid in wish Minokichi-kun's wish, we need some back work.
I will do various things using clones, appropriately criminals infected with 【Parasitism】 let it do this again and more. So that finalizing it will take another few days.
Minokichi-kun's request for help was finished to a certain extent, and when it was shortly stopped, Kanami-chan said that she also wanted to see the new 【Emperor】 of the Demon Empire.
When I listened to her story, it was about the same reason given by Minokichi-kun.
It was supposed to proceed with preparation, but before the former 【Emperor】 died he talked about his son, who was formerly the first seat of the 【Six Chief Generals】, the 【Heavy White General Hellvii.Via】. As well as with Earthty through [Inheritance] by Vasukia Hyulton's son became the new 【Emperor】, it seems that this will take a little more time than with Earthty.
Unlike the muscle-brained Beast Kingdom, where most cases can be resolved through force, there are many things in the Empire that cannot be solved by pure fighting ability alone.
Some interests and schemes, as well as anticipation and greed will complicate things, undoubtedly. Before the long-lived 【Emperor】 died various cases and plans hidden under Hyulton will also come up.
Well, it is normal.
In any case, Kanami-chan will have to wait a while.
I did a few other chores and fell to sleep quickly.
======
Day 344
I am still staying at 【Ship Ambrasm Parabellum】 today.
After early morning training, I will move to the kitchen along with Meal Hero.
The kitchen here is host to a white chef-type dungeon monster, and as it is also possible to obtain special foods and ingredients that raise various statuses temporarily, it is one of the most useful facilities in the dungeon.
There also seems to be a crafter who focuses on the dishes and ingredients here and makes the main work of reselling outside, but let's not focus on that for now.
At this time we only operated a part of it, we were in a private room prepared to not be recognizable from the outside areas.
There are cooking utensils such as cooking stoves that can operate freely with fire, refrigerators that can preserve ingredients, various kinds of knives and pots for meat and fish, and so on.
Other than me and Meal Hero's party, no one is here.
It is not a matter of hiding, but before we go back to the base in the Great Forest, there are things that have to be done.
Exactly, to cook the dead bodies of a large amount of 【Heroes】 who we have slaughtered.
Before 【Beast King】 Lionel and the former 【Demon Emperor】 Hyulton might also "join the cooking", first there's a lot the be handled about this place.
Saying that, today I kept handling it without much eccentricity.
It is impressive that Meal Hero also cooked, moving around the kitchen like a flowing stream, without saying a word of being disgusted with having to deal with the corpses of those who were once his colleagues.
I was a little worried, but it seems that there was nothing to think on now, as long as they are dead anyway, while we are the ones alive.
(ED: original goes 少し気になったので聞いてみると、生きている時ならともかく、既に死んでいるのだから今更思う事は無い、という事らしい。Not quite sure if I got it right)
They are, indeed, an amazing party.
Besides, the 【Heroes】clones duplicated by the White Lady don't have anything in their intestines, they are very beautiful and too beautiful to understand that they are not the people they were.
Although this area seemed to be a place I thought to be a bit of a fluke compared to a normal kitchen, cooking still proceeds without any problems.
While plucking and picking the best pieces, the goods cooked at a phenomenal rate will be packed into my item box.
Today was such a bad day.

"The 344th day"
I am still staying in the 【Ship Ambrasm Parabellum】today, but after training in the early morning, I will take the lodge to move to the kitchen.
The kitchen here is a chef-type dungeon monster with a white chef cookbook, as it is also possible to get special food and ingredients to raise various status temporarily, it is a very useful facility within the dungeon It is known as one.
There seems to be a craze who concentrates on the dishes and ingredients here and makes the main work of reselling outside, but leave it for a moment.
In this time we operated a part of it, we were in a private room prepared to not know the inside from the outside.
There are cooking utensils such as cooking stoves that can operate freely, heaters that can store foodstuffs, various knives and pots for meat and fish etc, here.
Besides I and Ii Ryu party, no one is here.
It is not a matter to hide it, but before you go back to the base of a large forest, there are things you have to do.
Yes, to cook the dead bodies of the massive [brutality] who have slapped.
Before 【Beast King】Lionel and former 【Demon Emperor】 Although it may be necessary to cook Hyulton, it is better to first handle a lot of this place.
By saying, I kept handling all day today without care.
It is striking that『Meal Hero』cooked without voicing complain that it was disgusting to deal with the corpses of those who were colleagues.
As I was a little worried, it seems that there is nothing I think now, as long as I am dead, anyway, when I am alive.
It is a terrible divide.
Besides, the clones duplicated by white lords are saying that because there is nothing in the intestines, it is very beautiful, it is too beautiful to understand that they are not people they know .
Although it seems that there seems to be something just a bit of fluke when putting out the real thing, cooking still advances without problems.
While plucking and picking, the goods cooked at a phenomenal rate are packed into my item box.
Today was such a bad day.
=======
Day 345
While moderately cloning the cloned 【Heroes】, I wield the black spear silently as a single demon in 【Divine Volcano of Wailing Ghosts】.
The two black spears I obtained by clearing the Psalms ---- are my 【Sacred Treasures】, I thought at first, but they seems a bit different.
Is it true that this black spear is still growing? Or is it a magic item in the stage just before becoming a 【Sacred Treasures】?
As if it was ripening, becoming a formal 【Sacred Treasures】 by satisfying some condition and becoming able to demonstrate its true value, such as a substitute for it.
Anyway, first repeat the mold with two black spears.
The black spears have become as familiar with my hands as if they were there from the beginning.
It can be handled with a feeling like that of an extended part of my hand. The weight and the balance of the center of gravity are good, and undoubtedly it will become a companion to be relied upon from now on.
Just by practicing it for a bit, I was able to be sure of that.
For the time being, I trained silently for about three hours.
After that, although Minokichi-kun was usually good as a sparring partner, today I felt it was kind of dangerous, so for now I practiced in a real warfare training against the Dragon Empress, which had become black from me owning the dungeon.
As a result, seeing the Black Dragon Empress' fate, who breathed out her last, I am convinced that it is too dangerous to use black spears in normal training.
If you drill with the 【Black Spear Leading to DemiseGedie.Hella】, the area about five meters around it changes to something like black sand.
By drilling with the 【Black Spear Leading to RootCasty.Heda】, the area about five meters around it changed to a red liquid like blood.
The Black Dragon Empress, whose whole body was pierced by such black spears, is almost red as a whole, excepting for her head.
It is the result of mixing black sand with red liquid. By scooping it up and trying it, the taste is the same, but the texture is smooth and felt improved on the tongue .
Indeed, there will be so many recipes using this.
I thought that I should refrain from training using them with Minokichi-kun.
This black spear is deadly if it hits.
Sandification or liquefaction occurs at the point of injury, so you cannot reduce its effect even if you want to.
Besides that, there seems to be various other abilities, so for the time being I will walk around 【Divine Volcano of Wailing Ghosts】 today and hunt the dungeon monsters in various places to deepen my understanding.
After transforming many dungeon monsters into reddish black mud, I return to the bottom of helical volcano and cut silver arms and cut right leg at their root.
The cut surface is as smooth as if molecular bonds were cut off, and it is likely that the muscles and nerves would again stick together just by placing the right leg back on.
Actually, if I were to try, it would do so, but for the time being, 【Exhaustive Dragon Emperor's Evil】 will consume magical power and let the right leg regenerate.
Then, after separating the blood overflowing from the cross section of the right leg that has been cut off, I observed the body structure of the person who had become a "Demon" for a while.
At the same time I also cut the skin, checking the muscle ties and other things, finally piercing it with the black spears and turning it into reddish mud.
And when I tried it, I found out it was delicious, honestly.
Speaking clearly, it is deliciously good as 【Sacred Treasures】.
I have eaten myself several times before, but maybe it is more delicious than before.
Let me drink a red hair, shortly afterwards, while swallowing it with myself.
For the time being, an amount of about three sets of legs has already been secured.

Day 345
While moderately cloning the clone 【Yukari】, wield the black spear silently with a single demon at【Divine Volcano of Wailing Ghosts】.
The two black spears I got by clearing the Psalms ---- are my [sacred treasures], I thought at first but it seems a bit different.
Should I say that this black spear is still growing, or a magic item before it becomes a sacred tree?
Utilizing ripening, becoming a formal [sacred treasure] to be able to demonstrate its true value by satisfying some condition is such a substitute.
Anyway, first repeat the mold with two black spears.
Black spears have become familiar with hands as if they were from the beginning.
It can be handled with a feeling like on an extended line of a hand. The weight and the balance of the center of gravity are good, and it will be no doubt that it will become a companion to be relied upon from now on.
Just trying it a bit, I was able to be sure.
For the time being, I trained silently for about three hours.
After that, although Minotoki - kun was good with the opponent, I felt it was kind of dangerous today, so today I was practicing a real warfare training against the dragon empire that was blackened by me.
As a result, I am convinced of the black dragon empress who breathed out that it is too dangerous to use black spears in training.
If you drill with [black lance which leads the end], about five meters around it changes to something like black sand.
By drilling with [the black spear Casty Herda leading to the root], about five meters around it changed to a red liquid like blood.
The Black Dragon Empire, whose whole body was pierced by such black spears, is almost red as a whole, except for his head.
It is the result of mixing black sand with red liquid, scooping it up and trying it, the taste is intact, but the texture is smooth and the texture of the tongue is getting better.
Indeed, there will be such recipes.
I thought that I did not have to train them to Mino Kichi.
This black lance is deadly if it hit it.
Even the Black Dragon Empress did not allow resistive resistance, so even miniyoshi-kun's level would not be too dangerous.
Sandification or liquefaction occurs at the stage of injury, so you can not do it even if you want to reduce it.
Besides that, there seems to be various abilities, for the time being, I will walk around [Teri God Volcano] today and hunt around the dungeon monsters in various places to deepen my understanding.
After making many dungeon monsters reddish black mud, return to the bottom of helical volcano, cut silver arms and cut right leg from root.
The cut surface is as smooth as if molecular bonds were cut off, and it is likely to stick to the muscles and nerves just by placing the right leg with it.
Actually, if it tries, it will be so, but for the time being, 【Exhaustive Dragon Emperor's Evil】 will consume magical power and let the right leg regenerate.
Then, after separating the blood overflowing from the cross section of the right leg that has been cut off, observe the body structure of the person who became "demon" for a while.
At the same time cut the skin, check the muscle ties and other, finally pierce with black spears and turn into reddish mud.
And I tried to challenge it, but I was honest and delicious.
Speaking clearly, it is delicious as good as [Sacred treasure].
I have eaten myself several times before, but maybe it is more delicious than before.
Let me drink a red hair short afterwards while swallowing it that I was yourself.
For the time being, the amount of three sets of both legs has already been secured.

Day 346
After finishing what I had left to do here, today I will return to the Great Forest along with Minokichi-kun and the other main members.
As the number of people this time were reduced to only about 10 people, consisting of Kanami-chan, others other than Demons, Redhead, the children, along with few others, we were able to enjoy traveling by air for a while, riding Tatsushirou.
By the way, I ordinarily flew within the Demon Empire, but unlike before, we were not tracked by their soldiers.
I wonder whether it was an influence of the backlog of the 【Succession to the Emperor】 as well.
I was able to come back to the Great Forest in the afternoon, after recovering a few flight-type monster we shot down.
Although it seems that the green is deeper than before, while not having seen it for a while from the sky, it is clear that new developments are spreading around the base.
However, rather than treating trees without care, it is structured in a way that allows you to see how you can easily live while taking full advantage of nature's topography.
Although trees which would otherwise interfere with traffic are cut down, more than a certain amount of nature is left, making it easier to live with and protect.
Originally a base used by the Orcs as «Mining Sites», now it was in a state that could appropriately be called a city inside the Great Forest.
While feeling satisfied with the base that is steadily expanding itself, we land on the «Airfield» at the top of the summit that has been maintained.
After giving a chunk of Dragon King's meat to Tatsushirou who is a little tired after the long flight, and stroking his face covered with rough, scraping scales using my silver arm, we took a special large sized Skeleton tramp - very distinguishable from others - and rode downhill on the skeleton train.
The skeleton train is used by hundreds of people who can ride along the marginal rails that has been laid in the internal base, proceeding almost gently without any vibration.
Incidentally, the rail has increased more than before, and now it continues all the way to «The First Coal Mine» and so on. That's one of the new facilities which pioneered a mountain a little ways away to collect mineral resources, but rails are still being placed.
It would be good to even take a quick ride around with Gulli to confirm the changes made to the base because he came back, but in the meantime we decided to go back to our house.
While I made this home I've hardly ever slept in it, but because blacksmith-san lives here, I usually get the feeling that somehow things are settling down.
After having some time to organize our luggage, blacksmith-san returned still wearing her work clothes after wrapping up her duties since we came back.
Behind her, came the cooking sisters wearing their aprons as well as accompanied by the female knight, who has just finished training. Then Doriane-san, who was in charge of the education of her subordinates, already had them start to work on their own, and alchemist-san is present holding Nicola, my second daughter, who has already learnt a few simple words.
Since they had been informed beforehand of our return home, they had started to finish up their work after confirming the appearance of Tatsushirou .
Since I was glad to come all the way back to see the others, I decided to spend the rest of the day in the mansion forgetting about other chores, while talking about a lot of other things the rest of the day.
Because of the rare opportunity, and her being the only child the with a slower growth rate, comparable to that of human children, little Nicola could not outright leave the child care contact of her mother, the alchemist, so now she sat cross-legged on top of my knee, while I was touching her soft cheeks and limbs with a "Puni-puni" sound.
I could not forget that I am a parent and indeed it is still a shock, but Nicola doesn't show a displeased face, on the contrary she has a look as if asking for some pampering.
Or, perhaps it's the tattoos on my body that are far more interesting, she might be impressed relentlessly as she come to touch them with a "Peta-peta" sound.
Or maybe, because she was born with 【Job · Crest Master (Crest Maker)】, she might be instinctively drawn with some interest.
Even after they've all grown up, I will not forget the skinship with my other children such as Auro, Argento, Oniwaka and Opushii while thinking about going around various places with other children.
In ordinary days, training drills are strictly followed, so we should let ourselves be spoiled in these relaxed times.
Today was a day filled with homey feelings.
======
Day 347
After doing morning training with the children, we go around the base with Kanami-chan and two demons.
The expansion of the base is continued on a daily basis, becoming an even more fulfilling place than ever before.
Nonetheless, there is plenty of room for improvements. Because it's always being used, it's at a stage where it's easier to find and correct any problems.
After checking out several places to a certain extent, I've decided to go towards the «Parabellum Hot Springs Village», crossing beyond an inner wall built as to not let outsiders enter, where people other than members come to gather,
Previously, only elves were coming to use here.
Such as Father Elf and his daughter, now enjoying the unchanged hot springs, as well as other good neighbors, all of which are steeped and soaked in pools, swamps, and our newly introduced gambling hall, or melting in the paradise called oil massage.
As intended, «Parabellum Hotsprings»» is a place designed for keeping good neighborhood relations on the table, it also becomes a place where you can stably secure items that only some elves can make, such as Mithril and secret medicines. It has since been growing smoothly.
Such is «Parabellum Hot Springs Village».
But recently, the number of people coming up from elsewhere has begun to increase.
It's mainly composed of sub-populations who live in remote places in the Great Forest, as well as minority tribes of beasts who wander through border areas tied with countries such as kingdoms and empires.
Although it's not in my best regards to spread the information too much, nowadays the base defense is perfect, and also it's possible to prepare bases in a variety of places if it becomes necessary, so we aren't thoroughly regulating information as much as we used to.
We are wary of the likes of a "grass spy" because it divides once, and if we get problems, we plan to solve it with the use of force, but at the moment there seems to be no need for such concerns.
Anyway, such changes are a thrill.
I looked around to some extent and slowly headed for a hot spring.
Today also was spent leisurely, as I fostered my spirit.
======
Day 348
The frontier and neighboring countries of the Holy Kingdom are gradually beginning to act.
The shock of the "Legendary Defeat in the Holy War" rushed through, and the faction that was lurking in the darkness of the chaos began "crawling like a worm". (ED: it was either this or "peristalsis" for maintaining the original meaning, please bear with it X) )
I will express it as such, as it will take more time to grow into a bigger fire. Now, I think that a small ember is glowing.
I will leave things at Holy Kingdom at that for now. For today, after morning training, I decided to take my children hunting in the Great Forest.
However, already the monsters living in the Great Forests aren't a threat.
I can get away with an encounter just by lightly waving of an arm, and my opponents cannot even tear a thin piece of skin even if attacked with my defenses lowered while receiving a full force attack.
On the contrary, if we do not assimilate the surroundings to the extent that we do not notice even if we are in front of our eyes, it is in a state where one insect is gone.
Although the children have not reached that level yet, they can easily slaughter a group of Hind Bears by themselves, with only slight margins of going sideways.
Nicola being the only exception. I cannot allow myself to come in contact with any kind of danger, because I'm also carrying her piggyback with a golden thread's cord.
(ED: Ovabou is talking to his children here, below. As he gave his children their weapons, he refers to those as gifts)
Therefore, even if I say it's a hunt, do not use any of your usual gifts today.
The only gift we have this time is the bow and arrows that the elves made.
Use this to hunt monsters while hiding signs of your presence.
Although there's a sense of hunting by only wielding a bow & arrow, but hunting is not the only purpose of being here.
There are many points to learn other than pure battle, such as finding traces that can be created when wild monsters pass, making their own traps using plants found in the Great Forest, identifying things that can or cannot be eaten.
Children and later generations are educated through various forms, but still tend to be biased toward crude combat.
Here we also incorporated field training, as their ability to survive when isolated is at a level that is still worrying for me as a parent.
Knowledge is put in, but whether it's practicable is another problem.
So as the time presented this opportunity, let's take advantage of it by actually taking the lead.
And in case anything happens, I decided to come back to the base at dusk, but the hunting outcome went well.
Fourteen "Double Horned Rabbit", carrying a bigger body and wielding two protruding horns shaped as if the corners of four horns were put together to create two horns.
Eight higher-species of animals "Black Iron Armored Tanuki", which were darker and harder versions of Armored Tanukis.
Six birds of the higher-species "Poison Cocco", which could be described as purple Big Coccos, that could give birth to eggs every day in the base.
Twelve senior high-ranked colorful "Filled Up Rainbow Bat" which were bigger in size when compared to the Rainbow Bats, as well as having more colors.
In addition, I was also able to do plentiful amounts of things.
This was somewhat nostalgic, but it seems that the slightly different prey found shows vividly that the Great Forest is growing.
I triumphant delivered today's hunting results to the sisters, and gave a hand with the cooking, while being guided by Meal Hero.
I thought that it might be delicious even from the smell stage, but if you were to eat a bite, it proved itself far more delicious than one could imagine.
Everything was delicious, but the one I liked in particular was Black Armored Tanuki's steak.
What is being used is the meat from the back right under the hard crust, so that it is softer than other parts used to absorb impacts, yet it is thick or thicker depending on location.
Such meat is made to pass much better through fire as a whole, it is made medium rare to enjoy the difference between the red middle of the half life and the burned surface, and if it wasn't enough already, the sisters' special made demi-glaze sauce is put on top of it.
Overflowing in one bite is its rich and mellow taste. Even after eating it, there's a strength to its taste, in a way that you are able to perfectly describe it after leaving your mouth.
As I eat this dish cooked by skilled hands and the accumulated knowledge, honestly, I wonder whether its deliciousness is able compete with Red Bear's place at the Great Forest, this is really nostalgic.
And with the teachings of Meal Hero, our sister's cuisine came to improve by this much, I must say I'm expecting a lot more in the future. If we used the dragon meat which is a far superior ingredient this time, it most certainly will be close to perfection.
*Munch* *Munch* *Munch* *Munch*, while eating the black crustacean knobs with fried chicken, I try my best to honestly describe my impressions.
Yeah, good delicious food sure is nice.
However, there's a possibility of ascending as this is just too delicious... I wonder if that would be ok?
=======
Day 349
Today I finished morning training and went out for hunting with my children.
We used bows and arrows yesterday, but this time I decided to use the horn rabbits' horn to remember the old days.
The corners that can only be used to stab, and with a length of about a dagger, the horn sure is nostalgic, reminding me of about a year ago.
Or perhaps, I'm still amazed by everything that has gone down since a year ago.
Normally, it would take several years or even decades to experience it all, but honestly that's how I feel.
Well, I wonder if I will repeat the same things from now on as well.
I take a break and walk around for a while.
The children seem to be taking too much time getting used to it, that seems interesting.
Argento, who praised Auro and Oniwaka, who seemed to be enjoying themselves happily, was struggling. Oppushii was straddling jewels while her animal beasts ran around, and being carried on my back is Nicola, who is drawing some patterns on the corner with the magical power sent out from her fingertips.
In such ways, they basically act in a lively manner, quietly disappearing and reappearing from time to time when they find a prey's signs.
The basic performance was good, even though the children were unfamiliar with hunting, they still managed to succeed and, unprecedentedly, we reached the elves village by simply walking in the forest.
I had recently come to the elves village before the Holy War. But as I'm here anyway, I decided to go to Father Elf's house.
I haven't even contacted him, but as he was saying 『Please come at any time without reserve』, so lets make some souvenirs out of the harvested prey this time. Or so I thought, apparently Father Elf is out.
It's disappointing, but it seems after all he is in «Parabellum Hot Springs Resort»
While saying it couldn't be helped, I handed the souvenirs to a servant elf, and when I tried to go home, Daughter Elf came out from the back and took me in for a reception.
Because they would be tired otherwise, we stayed for some snacks served with tea. The snacks are vegetable-based, and the children seemed to like it as some also used the souvenirs. A lighthearted and delicious meal.
While watching it, I changed Nicolas's diaper, and proceeded to eat the meal that was cooked in advance directly from the item box.
I usually left that to alchemist-san, but as I was watching how to do it separately, I thought it sure is a bit handy, but it is still in place.
I also stayed with Daughter Elf while talking about the Holy War.
When I wondered about time, about 3 hours had passed. I decided to go home before dusk came, because it was too slow.
At that time, we also left three kinds of demon liquor placed in newly-handmade bottles.
Sudden visits are not a disagreeable, and it is a nice return in which we got a consideration given the fine details.
While thinking that it was a meaningful day, I tasted the sisters' cooking, after being supervised by the Meal Hero.
Oh, no.. A safe base with hot springs and delicious food.
I can't resist but feel a little depraved.

Day 349
Even after finishing the training of the morning today, I went to hunting with her children.
Although using a bow and arrow yesterday, this time decided to use a corner of the horn rabbit Recall the original intention.
Can not only corner that pierce with a length of about dagger nostalgic, reminds us before nearly a year.
I mean, or try amazed while too late to be not yet past than a year.
I think Toka few years if normal, Toka several decades, or is currently, such as all kinds that will not experience is concentrated, and honesty if.
Well, I will repeat the same thing in the future.
And retaken care, often stroll.
It seems to have been slow even children to be unfamiliar, but it seems interesting in it.
Happily frolic Oro and Oniwaka, a chide Argento is struggling. Opushi across jewelry Dark beast Romp around, Nicola being piggybacked depicts digging something A pattern on the corner in the magic that is contracted to the fingertip.
Lively and act in such a such a fundamental, creeping quietly turn off the sign if perceive the signs of prey.
Basic performance is so good children also succeeded in hunting while unfamiliar, had imperceptibly come to the village of elves and are suitably walking a large forest.
But it just came in before the holy war in the village of elves, toward the father elves of the house because just good.
Since the contact. I have not had to say that "at any time good, but come without hesitation", trying to prey hunted this time to what body or souvenir. I thought, but apparently, his father elves away.
Again, it seems to idiot in the «Torino Palavela hot springs».
Why not be helped, the souvenirs in and say things passed to the servant elf, and you go home, daughter elf's gave me entertainment coming out from the back.
Because it would have tired, who also put out snacks along with the tea in the fact that. While children also vegetables center, snacks souvenir was also used seemed was calling for mind, and eat the Bakubaku and delicious.
While watching it, I eat out a or replace the diaper of Nicola, had been pre-cooked from the item box cuisine.
Although it was endless left to the alchemist's, because the minute body way were watching, or middle. Cleanly is not good, but I have thought, such as it is now put.
Daughter Elf's also sprinkled, often to stay with the story of the holy war.
If in time, I wonder enough three hours. Because too slow more than expected, decided to go home before dusk.
At that time, we also put put three kinds of demon liquor was placed in a new hand bottle.
Without also frowned on sudden visit, it returns that were asked to the entertainment that has been consideration to a fine place.
While I think that it was the middle. Meaningful day, smack in the sister's cooking of MeshiIsamu supervision.
Oh, it is useless. Safe base from which there is a hot spring and delicious cuisine.
I do not also do not feel that a little corruption.
=======
Day 350
Since training is likely to be unsuitable if the environment is too easy, I will pair with Minokichi-kun for the morning training.
We begin our assault at the bottom of a hole that was dug deeply so as not to damage our surroundings, repeatedly punching and kicking only with pure physical ability.
The hard, huge fists of Minokichi-kun are perfectly resistant to damage, and if you actually accept its damage, there is enough power for your meat and bones to be crushed. If you deliver a poorly placed kick, it will be blown away by his defense and you will find yourself devastated by a continuous attack of angry drilling waves that keep searching for a fatal gap.
So I bear that in mind and try to parry, or break his posture, as much as possible but here so also there has been improvements to his techniques compared to earlier, so that the only way to fight would be to change from any anticipated behavior.
And anyway tough, muscled armor would have received most of the attack's blow. So I focus on attacks that penetrate deep into his system bit by bit, but it seems even that is not very effective.
Overall I had already won, but since there is no big difference between the amount of damage given by me and the resilience of Minokichi-kuni, it will take some time to set in.
For the time being, I went straight to lunch without resting from the morning sparring, so my whole body was sweaty, muddy, painted with the blood, and covered with blue bruises.
If I also leave Minokichi-kun as he is, he will heal quickly on his own. I then decided to go to the hot springs in order to feel a bit refreshed.
At the entrance of the hot springs is 【Demon's Hot Water】. As you slowly soaked and wash your body with the chitin, the accumulated fatigue inside melts away, like a dream.
There is a feeling that even small injuries of the body will heal with the effect of the hot water, along with a feeling to being born again. Although it's a bit itchy.
As I think that, I leak out a voice of ecstasy 『Ooh』. Minokichi-kun also seems to be comfortable, taken from his likely 『Bumoo』.
While I soak leisurely there, I drink Demon liquor along with a knob made of cloned Heroes. I kept soaking lazily in the hot springs until around noon.
Ability learned: 【Piece of Wisdom】
Ability learned: 【Existence Degradation】
Ability learned:【Heroes Pedigree】
Ability learned:【Replicable Hero · Replica】
After drinking, I was able to learn some abilities from the pack and the knobs, it's good progress.
Well, I had been eating a good number of them. I thought it was about time.
So for this time's learned abilities, both 【Heroes Pedigree】 and 【Piece of Wisdom】 are easy to use, but for 【Existence Degradation】 and 【Replicable Hero】 it seems they need to be used in a special way.
I will think about it on another time, for now let's wait while I finish eating the rest of it, perhaps I can even learn something else.
I had been chatting with Minokichi-kun and two other demons while soaking in the hot springs for a while, when the topic comes up, Minokichi-kun's 『 I want to meet the current【Beast King】』, who heard the topic just a few days ago, so we speak roughly about the preparation for its conclusion.
Surprisingly it was easy to work everything out, speaking of being able to departure at any time, Minokichi-kun said he would go to see 【Beast King】 Earthy tomorrow, straight away.
Because we decided Asue-chan will advance with him to the front, it will be enough if we prepare one dragon beforehand rather than their marching by foot. If you fly, you can arrive much faster than overland.
But before that I came up with another thing I wanted to do, so I got out of the hot spring and took the 【Labyrinth Seed】 from my item box.
The 【Labyrinth Seed】 obtained by winning the [Holy War] is a suspiciously shining black jewel of the size of a palm, with magical powers that seem to drag in the gazes of anyone around.
I will plant this in the yard of the mansion for the time being.
Then, numerous black crystals rose from the place the seed was planted, and a tube extending from the crystal body pierced my torso. Soon after, not only an enormous amount of Magical Power but also even a little portion of my 【Divine Power】was vigorously drained by the buried seed.
It feels like being deprived of life force itself from the depths of my body, accompanied by a terrible malaise, and an unpleasant sweat started pouring from my whole body.
After a while the tube was pulled out and the drains momentum weakened. Apparently it seems that an invisible connection was created, leaving a feeling that the crystal body is continuously draining me.
For the time being, I repeatedly invoke several abilities, and while I recover by also gulping down the hot water of the hot springs, I summon a 【Demon's Howl Gate】as a test.
Then, a【Demon's Howl Gate】 was formed in front of the mansion.
Yes, it shouldn't be possible to build a 【Demon's Howl Gate】if it's not inside of a labyrinth.
Basically, the Magic Power and the 【Divine Power】 are not enough yet, and since it was just born it's still not perfect, but the base has become a place like a naturally enclosed type dungeon, due to the【Labyrinth Seed】's effect.
However, due to the lack of energy, it doesn't mean that you can freely set the settings as you'd like. Well, as time passes that problem will solve itself, so it's time for a long trip.
Still, I never thought that I would have my own dungeon that I could build from the ground up.
I'm really glad we overcame the [Holy War].
It has become really convenient, such as traveling with this.
Or also other various settings aside, I need to recover magical power until tonight to try pouring it in.
There are more things to do, it is likely to become busy from now on.
