Reincarnation ~ From the Upper World to the Lower World Chapter 27

For the time being let’s leave the other monsters to the surrounding people, and focus the magics to the wyverns. Since it doesn’t have a breath attack like a dragon, there’s a chance to attack when it descends.

We took aim towards the wyverns circling in the sky. The arrows won’t reach no matter how many flies from the ground. It will surely dives. I wait for the chance to attack while it gradually descends. At that time, the wyvern suddenly dive aiming for the injured people being treated at the rear.

Fire type magic won’t be that effective because it’s a dragon type. And because my ice magic is still at level 1, I can’t expect much from it. But I still have that explosion magic. Since it’s difficult to hit it directly, trying to find a way, I imagined the scene of the World War 2 that I’ve seen before and hardened the image.

The Wyvern finally entered the range of my explosion magic. Did it think it won’t have that large effect, as it only stops and evade at the very last minute. However that is what I was aiming for. The moment it dodges, an explosion occurred at close range.

Having strengthened my image, I keep on using explosion magic at a constant distance towards the approaching Wyvern. In short, I was trying to create a VT fuse like the one in World War 2 by using magic. The Wyvern that got hit by the blast starts spinning and falls. One adventurer is already waiting at the predicted falling area.
[T.N: VT Fuse(Proximity Fuse) is a type of bomb that instead of exploding upon contact, will instead explode when it reach a certain distance from the target, causing it to be harder to evade.]

The Gold-rank old man from before, while his sword is still in his sheath slashed towards the falling Wyvern. So fast! After cutting its neck in two while in a state of pa.s.sing each other with an unsheathed sword, he said this while slowly sheathing his sword:

“Once again I have cut a worthless object…”

Are you Is.h.i.+kawa Goemon!? I almost shouted that retort. The first thing you say was that, arent you just bad at talking!? Is such a thing okay!? My impression of the old man’s awesome sword technique was blown away by that one word!
[T.N: Is.h.i.+kawa Goemon is some kind of semi-legendary j.a.panese outlaw hero that steals for the poor. But in this case he’s referring to the samurai character in Lupin III, where that phrase is one of his famous words. As I can’t remember when was the last time I watch that anime, I can’t really make sense of his retort, so this is my best guess.]

“The adventurer over there! Please drop the remaining wyverns in the same way! I’ll cut them!”

The old man look at me and ask that…. Well it’s fine. Lets finish this with just me and that old man Goemon(Temporary).

With the combined attacks from the Koper armies as well as the adventurers, the crowd of monsters scattered and starts retreating. The people who can still move have already started chasing. There probably won’t be any ambush from the monsters either.

“It ended somehow.”
“Yeah. What’s more, I’m glad we did not suffer any injuries.”

Amyl had approached me. However, what would we do about the collection of the monster core? When we’re thinking that there might be some complaints if we gather it without permission, the head of the guild shouted an order at the time of departure:

“The monster core that can be collected, you can take them home. However, the monster core of the wyverns will be claimed by the guild. Since we’ll confirm it with the person who’s partic.i.p.ating in the pursuit after this, the adventurers in this place must gather first for the time being.”

Did the guild get the best part? While I was thinking about what to gather, we first need to confirm our names and ranks on the list. We also take out the plate and tell our names in turns.

“Ah, it’s you. Great work a little while ago.”

The guild officials give me their compliments. It should be about me dropping the wyverns. Since I thought that all the credits will go to Goemon(temporary), I do feel a little bit unsatisfied. While we we’re collecting the monster cores after ending the procedure, we talked about the incident this time.

“But still,  why do they suddenly attack in a group? Does this kind of thing happens regularly with monsters?”
“I wonder why? I think this is a first for me too”

It was Goemon(temporary) that answers our doubt while not stopping collecting the monster cores.

“The demons might be related to this. Those guys had a country composed of only demons, and always try to sabotage us.”

Demons huh? I’ve also heard about this when I was transferred here, I haven’t really seen them. Do their appearances looks like the devil as expected?

“How the demon tribe looks? It varies. The had horn and wings, but as for their main feature, the face of the high ranking demon will look more dignified. There’s no one who was able to see the face of the Demon Lord that appeared a long time ago in the record.”

However, we still don’t know the reason why the demon tribe attack everyone besides themselves. By sending the monsters to other countries creating a political unrest, will they be able to gain something from that?

“It’s to prevent us from uniting our nations into one. A stable country may appear if the demon tribe does not meddle, but revenge is also one of the reasons. A long time ago, although it’s questionable whether the hero managed to defeat the demon lord or not, but the demon tribe had been living the life of persecution after that. I guess revenge is not all that odd.”

Is there a history of war between the races? I really don’t want to be involved as much as possible. For me, I’m happy as long as me and people close to me are happy, as well as doesn’t have to accept any troublesome things.

“Still, you looks promising even when you’re young. How about it? Wanna come to the capital city and train yourself? You might even be able to serve the country depending on how hard you work.”
“Capital city huh? What are the specific training that I can do there?”

According to Goemon(temporary), there’s also a dungeon exist at the outskirts of the capital city. The scale seems to be bigger than the one in Koper town. Strong monsters lurk in the dungeon, so it’s not rare that many adventurers who managed to defeat them be appointed as knights or soldiers

If you are tired from the adventurers unstable life, it seems that there are tired adventurers who use this method to achieve stability. The quest for the Adventurer Guild in the capital city offered bigger rewards, as well as having a chance of being noticed by the big shots. There are many adventurers that goes there for the big rewards…. But on the other hand the risk is bigger too.

Capital city huh? There’s a feeling of wanting to see it at least once. I have no particular reason to stay in the Koper town either. Should I have a talk with everyone after we return to town? But for now let view the level up:

Skills Possessed:
『Archery：Level 3』
『Evasion：Level 2』
『Swordsmans.h.i.+p：Level 2』

Amyl went from level 22 to 25. Lelena went from 21 to 24 respectively. Since this is such a large scale battle, everyone manage to greatly improved.

Claire’s Archery and Swordsmans.h.i.+p had went up after we came here. It might be due to defeating lots of enemies in this confusing fight. If we keep on raising our level, it’s likely that she will overtake me later. To keep the dignity as her Master, should I do some special training in secret?

What kind of skill should I take this time? When I used the 『HP Regeneration：Level 1』, it was a considerably good skill. I might have been defeated by that handsome man if not for that skill. Should the recovery system also be the same for the MP-related thing? With that, I acquired the 『MP Up』 skill.

『As [MP Up：Level 1] was obtained, you acquired the derivative skill [MP Regeneration：Level 1]』

Alright, just as expected. My combat capabilities will be very different with this.
