Is this Hero for Real? chapter 16

"A certain god is anxious"

"...it's okay."

It was expected from the beginning that growth would be difficult due to the curse of the evil goddess in the guise of a hypocrite.

[Warrior!

＞The language of the race hostile to the hero is automatically translated.

＞Experience gained from hunting and achievements is greatly reduced!

The level of the expression 'extremely' was worse than I expected.

I never imagined that the level would not go up at all.

"You intended to kill me…"

Just throwing it into the forest infested with man-eating monsters wasn't reassuring, so he put a terrible curse on it.

Can't you level up in a world that rolls with levels?

It's like a death sentence.

"A certain god looks to a distant galaxy"

"Some god says there are so many stars in the galaxy today"

"Why are you suddenly like this?"

I thought I was going to say good-bye, wishing Assa well.

I snatched expensive looking things from the gnolls' corpses.

Rings, necklaces, bracelets, jewelry...

Too elaborate craftsmanship to say that it was made for play. It must have been stolen from humans and fairies.

Why are you so determined?

This is because the heads of humans and fairies stuck on skewers were decorated around the crypt where the gnolls live.

"At first, I was trying to take care of it in moderation.

just..."

Since I learned the terrible fact that my level won't go up, I have no choice but to revise my plan.

How do I become strong?

money money money

As a cultural citizen steeped in capitalism, I am well aware of the fear of money.

Cards are stronger than swords!

In addition, the 'good equipment' prepared with a large amount of money is one of the means to become physically stronger.

"Scary meat!"

"Meat not weak!"

"kill! meat !"

"Human meat! plural!"

Ah! Are you still playing?

Large Gnolls rushed out from the dark crypt.

Exuding the atmosphere of a warrior who had gone through everything before and after birth, they all had bulging stomachs and were fully armed with weapons and armor stolen from humans and fairies.

[Name] The hook that makes the fairy ring

[Level] 9

[Blessing] Warrior Head

[The mouse fairy head

"indeed..."

There must have been a reason why he couldn't even see his nose while his people were being slaughtered.

Those who decided that they could never win by pushing numbers were thoroughly prepared.

flash! flash! flash!

The gnolls, who had their stomachs filled with gluttony, all at once used the 'power of meat'.

That number is one hundred (百).

But I had no fear.

[Oh yea]

It's not just because I can't feel the emotions.

I became proficient every time I used 'The Power of Meat', and I strengthened it through constant improvement and experimentation.

And I just learned again.

"Strong meat! My meat!"

"Swallow! heart! Swallow!"

"Male meat! hate!"

"eyeball! Give me your eyes!"

The gnolls had little differences in the 'power of meat' as well as their varied tastes.

The purpose of becoming stronger is the same, but the subtle difference in operation determines the efficiency of the force.

"Thank you?"

Watching how the gnolls operate, I cut out unnecessary parts, and applied useful points to my power.

As a result,

flash-!

It didn't seem like it was going to last.

Without nails that were as big and hard as gnolls, I put my strength into the blue cutter I held in my right hand.

[Oh yea]

[fairy]

Blood-black jelly covers the blade of the blue cutter.

"Hey, meat?!"

"What?!"

"Dangerous fish!"

"Strong nails!"

I had no use for it yet, so I needed to strengthen my weapon in order to rip the Gnoll's armor at once.

With this, my preparations are over.

jumped right up

pod.

"Hey, meat-?!"

Nol's body was cut vertically.

The thick, hard force that wrapped around my right hand and the blue cutter ripped the iron armor like a piece of paper.

Kendo? Martial Arts? artifice?

I never learned it and I don't need it.

Its overwhelming destructive power is the perfect offensive tool in itself.

"Up, danger!"

"Too strong!"

"Dangerous fish!"

"Escape...!"

Even if the gnolls were strengthened with the 'power of meat' and fully armed, my absolute superiority did not change.

[massacre]

"I know I prepared hard, but I think it's not enough."

You are not ready yet.

The second day of group hunting to raise the level of the warriors.

As experience has been accumulated, the power has been strengthened, but the total number of warriors has decreased slightly from yesterday.

The reason was explained by the saint without hiding her discomfort.

"We excluded those who were afraid and abandoned the hero's mission. It will reduce the budget allotted to them and invest more in you. So don't worry."

"Oh oh!"

"nice!"

The warriors were delighted with the news that the service would be better than it is now.

Scared classmates?

Most of the warriors hoped that there would be more. Then the quality of equipment and treatment provided to them will be even better.

Prince Arsace reported.

"The level up speed of the heroes is phenomenal. Even considering the cooperation of the Knights Templar and excellent equipment, level 3 on average in just one day is a great result. Humanity's hope is never an exaggeration."

"Huh."

"Ho ho ho!"

"Fufu!"

It was thanks to the hero's protection rather than the hero, but Prince Arsus stopped thinking negatively.

Because it's a 'taboo'.

Just as warriors have the protection of the warrior, sorcerers depend on the protection of magic. The same goes for high-level personnel such as priests and knights.

If you don't want to turn them all into enemies, if you want to keep the right to the throne, you have to be rude.

"Prince."

The driver, who rushed to the horseback, reported the situation at the hunting ground.

Prince Arsus, who judged that the matter was too big for him to decide, immediately sought the saint's opinion.

"Lady. They say they found a gnoll bingeing."

"What is your level?"

"It's level 5."

"Hmm. Choi Kang-min, Jang Mi-yeon, and Yu Bo-ra were at level 5. Let it be a rare opportunity for you to push forward."

"all right."

So the warriors moved to the hunting ground for the first time.

Up until now, the Prince of Arsus and the Knights had hunted in the same place in the same way as they were playing, but this time it was not possible.

crumble.

Prince Arsus, who hid himself in the bushes, pointed to the gnoll walking behind him.

"That Gnoll is a special entity. Be careful as he is aggressive enough to attack even the strongest."

Princess Ethena, who was less talkative while suffering from the interference of the old wizards, was the first to shout.

"A full Gnoll can use powerful black magic! Be especially careful if your eyes are red!"

"■? ■■?"

"Ah! I'm sorry. You got caught because of me... "

"■■! ■■ ■! ■■! ■ ■■! ■ ■! ■■ ■■!"

flash!

Gnoll's eyes began to flash red when he heard the human female's voice and turned his head.

woohoo-

His chubby body became thin like a deflated balloon and turned into a ferocious muscular one.

and charged.

"cheer up!"

Prince Arsus and Princess Ethena retreated from a distance so as not to deprive them of their achievements.

And only the warriors remained.

"come!"

"Father, fast…!"

"Hey?!"

It seemed as strong as the advice of a prince and a princess, but they were not yesterday's mischief.

Average level 3.

Now, the overall power has been improved enough to block even a dozen of them at once.

"No need to be afraid!"

[command]

Hero Choi Kang-min, with curiosity, blocked the front of Nol and exhorted the warriors.

He had a sure win method that was tested yesterday.

[Fighting spirit]

Since the battle has only just begun, you need to buy time until the effects of A and A are fully exerted.

[Acceleration]

First of all, after quickly evading the attack of the Gnoll and stopping the advance-

puck!

"Ahh?!"

"Kang Min-ah?!"

Choi Kang-min's head flew through the air after being beaten by Nol.

The body that had lost the head to give orders was torn apart.

Gnoll did not stop his momentum and continued to charge. And a head-on collision with a group of warriors!

"Hey-?!',

"A lot of money?!"

"Ouch?!"

Armed with fairly heavy armor, the warriors bounced around like bowling pins and flew away.

Gnoll also faltered in the recoil of the crash.

"Yaab!"

"■?"

Whoops-!

The magic of the warrior Yu Bo-ra, who aimed at that gap, exploded on Gnoll's face.

It doesn't end there.

[weapon]

As her strength improved with protection, her strike that changed her wooden sword into an iron sword pierced Gnoll's side.

Whoops-!

But immediately afterward, a powerful shock struck Yu Bora.

"Yeah…?!"

Kicking her stomach on Gnoll's lap, her waist folds like a prawn.

■?"

Gnoll's curious look at a human female who didn't die in one shot was swift.

snap.

After grabbing the exposed nape of Yu Bo-ra's neck as her waist was folded, she swung her like a club.

"Damn?!"

"What?!"

"Wow, billion?!"

[weapon]

Thanks to Yu Bora's protection, she can treat her body like a weapon.

Hard, tough, flexible...

Now, she became the weapon of the Gnoll and attacked the warriors.

[weapon]

puck! puck! puck!

Gnoll, reluctant to suffer from hunger, bit the fallen warriors and took their blood and flesh.

He continued hunting while maintaining the 'power of meat' in that way.

"Who, who… !"

As the defense lines of the warriors collapsed, the warrior Jang Mi-yeon, who was exposed to danger, froze in fear.

[fascination]

[off-white]

She exerted her protection to the fullest, but the followers who would protect her were annihilated and did not budge.

"Hey?!"

Jang Mi-yeon, whose eyes met Nori, sat down as her legs loosened.

"■? ■■ ■!"

stroke ~

I slowly approached Mi-yeon, a playwright who threw away the tattered human club Yu Bo-ra after beating up countless warriors like trash.

"Sa, save me... Chick?!"

Gnoll's tongue, stained with the blood and flesh of the warriors, licked her cheek. Then, as soon as Nol's snout fell down and her nose between her legs sniffed, Jang Mi-yeon's thoughts completely stopped.

There is only one cause.

[fascination]

[off-white]

There were no race restrictions in the protection of Jang Mi-yeon, who possessed the opposite sex.

『A certain innocent goddess trembles at someone's taste』

『A certain male god cries out that tastes should be respected』

『A certain bold superstition excites with anticipation』

"What kind of god…"

It was time to move on to the next exciting play.

Dang!

Prince Arsus, who approached secretly, cut off the man's head.

"Hero Jang Mi-yeon. Are you okay?"

Jang Mi-yeon, whose face was pale, barely nodded her head.

"A certain male god sighs"

『Some evil spirit regrets it』

『Some receiver is spraying cold water』

『A certain male god is frozen』

『A certain evil spirit is frozen』

« o o o "

"Come on to treatment...!"

"Sa, save me…"

The knights and priests began to tidy things up in unison. A similar precedent had just happened the day before, so they were not embarrassed or disappointed.

In only one...

I decided not to think.

In particular, the resolute attitude of the saint deserves to be called an example.

"May God's blessings be with the warriors who struggled against powerful enemies."

I went into the crypt of the Gnoll and gathered a lot of jewels and gold coins.

From the first day he was kidnapped by the fantasy world, he hunted a lot of gnolls, which had been badly connected, but there was no excitement.

[Oh yea]

Because the fate of the gnolls, who have no ability to catch me or kill me in one hit, was decided from the beginning.

Rather...

[massacre!

＞Friendly races are slightly afraid of you and reluctant to do so.

＞The chance to retaliate against your atrocities is greatly increased.

"This curse is… turning your back on being an assassin."

『Some god is smiling』

"Let's laugh together."

『A certain god spins round and round in place』

I really hated God who enjoyed being alone, but what can I do if I am a level 1 useless piece of garbage?

slinky!

A bag full of loot made me feel a little bit better.

The problem is still the language.

If you can't sell them at a reasonable price, you're just a stone.

In other words, you need an interpreter you can trust and rely on.

"Zeep."

Wouldn't it be great if we could be friends with a smart game that can transform into a human?

I'm not good at lying, so I can trust her...

"There, level 1 human. Where did the man who slew all these gnolls go?"

"Really!"

I found a smart male Gnoll that looks like a handsome human.

He didn't shout meat and had horns on his head, but it was a minor problem compared to the broken language barrier.

"… Can't you hear me? You spoke in human language- Keek?!"

"I got it!"

"Kekkeksu, my breath…!"

"What is your name?"

I don't know what kind of game it is, but we could be good friends.
