Chapter 34 – Krebskulm Liberation Front (Part 3)
I desperately tried to suppress myself from smirking. In fact, I was trying to show some consideration to the person in front of me who’s showing disdain.
“What will I do with runaway slaves, you asked…? I’m not obliged to tell you.”
“… Oh? It appears to me that you’re ready to die. Don’t think I’ll go easy on you just because you’re a woman. I know you’re no ordinary person just from looking at how cleanly that man’s head was lopped off.”
I readied my shortsword and my fist. He seemed to be a fighter with a fist fighting style. I kept my shortsword sheathed on my waist, and there was no trace of evidence that it was used. Well, it was armed as an extra defense…
“H-hold on a second, Rena!”
Ignoring the pestering Yuu, both of us were probing each other cautiously. We were in a dimly lit narrow alley which did not give us much room for movements. Both of us were being vigilant since we did not know each other’s fighting style and abilities.
“If you don’t attack, I’ll start —.”
“— Were you waiting to attack, idiot?!”
“Huh? Father? Why are you here?!”
Oh? An unfamiliar old man hit the big man’s head.
“… I don’t mind if you come at me at the same time.”
“… Would you please lay down arms? I’d like to speak with you, so let’s go somewhere else.”
Hmm? This development was going along with my original purpose and less of a hassle… I should put the fighting on hold for the moment…
“… Well, that’s too bad, but let’s do that.”
“Hmm, young people are too impulsive! Hey, you standing over there and you sitting down there, let’s hurry and leave this place!”

“Oh! Ah, y-yes!”
“… U-understood.”
“Oh, that was close.”
Well, leaving Yuu aside, it would be unwise to get those girls that I just saved involved in a fight. I shall pull back for the time being and move so I can achieve my initial goal.
“Huh! Father?! Are you going to ask this gal?!”
“… What if I am?”
“But…!”
“I know. But you also know that we have no other choice, right?”
“Well… Okay, I understand.”
They seem to have a bit of a conflict, eh? Do I have something they need? Is it because we were showing our killing intents earlier?
“Anyway, patrols will get here if we stay here any longer. Follow me.”
“I guess. Let’s go, Yuu.”
“O-okay!”
For the time being, it seemed that they would guide us, so I decided to go along.
“Call me Sage Ron. This is my son, Ronove.”
“… Nice to meet you.”
It was a simple introduction, but that big man — Ronove seemed to be curt. I decided to leave him be and hurry on ahead.
After we left that alley, the old man led us to another alley across the street and went inside the back door of a building in the middle. He ignored the clerk inside the store and proceeded down the stairs in another room to an underground passage. We trudged along the passage for a while and emerged outside the city.
“… I see. It’s a secret passage no one could find.”
“… We’re going aboard a boat.”
The boat was moored on the stream near the exit of the secret passage. We promptly got on the boat.
“We’re going out to sea.”
“What? Are we going to be all right…?”

Yuu looked around in anxiousness. When I was about to nudge him, I heard one of the girls’ stomach growled loudly; it was almost cute. They just escaped a dire situation after all.
“Are you hungry? Would you like to eat this?”
“Really?!”
I took out the food I bought for the information gathering quest yesterday and today from my inventory and then gave it to Nia.
“N-nia! I’m sorry!”
Mea refrained from taking the food I offered them, but she could not hide her hunger. I could hear her stomach growling, just like Nia’s did.
“It’s all right. Here, please take this, Mea.”
I gave them the food with a smile. She replied, “Uh, I’m sorry for troubling you! Thank you!” She bowed in appreciation and started eating.
It was nothing much, though. When I bought them, Yuu complained about how we did not decide to gather information at a food stall, so we went to the bar instead. He then was about to prattle about the template, so I struck his gut with my knee. Well, the circumstances were difficult to explain, but I guess it would be all right. At least it would not cause food poisoning.
“… You’re unexpectedly kind.”
“What do you think I am?”
Ronove seemed to be astonished as if I just did something out of the ordinary.
“… No, nothing.”
“Ha ha ha, this guy is thickheaded, so please don’t take offense.”
“Father.”
“It’s true, isn’t it?”
Hmm, their parent-child relationship appeared to be close… Even though it was a pity we put the earlier fight on hold, but I should restrain myself for the time being.
“Well, it doesn’t matter.”
“Ha ha ha, please pardon him.”
After engaging in various conversations, we finally were out at sea. We rowed our boat for farther. There was a remarkably huge boat hidden behind a reef.
“There it is.”
“That boat?”
“Yeah, that’s right. That’s our — Krebskulm liberation front’s hideout.”
Bingo! It was as I suspected. I was glad they had come to organize a liberation front. With this, my plan would move along quite far.

Domain of Man
Isolation is terrible. To feel isolated with your fellow man around you is worse. What if you were dumped in some backwards cave somewhere, completely nude, maybe with your family, or even completely alone? The age of pioneers, heroes, generals, and geniuses is long gone. Humankind has become numb to the world around it because of how paltry everything else is compared to the glory of its history, the sheer volume of their accomplishments, and the sum of its innovations. You can interact with people across the world, travel miles in mere hours, and never prepare your own food or shelter, and it's all accessible to even the normalest of individuals. Artificial intelligence is within arms reach in devices and computers and even houses, and neural interfaces aren't exclusive to the rich and powerful at this point. Someone far in the distance took notice of Earth, saw the multitude of hairless apes swarming its surface. That one went down the checklist to see if humanity had, in fact, beaten the 'game' of Life. Sure enough, they had gone above and beyond the requirements, but nobody had been watching. 'Why might that be?', that one wondered. Protocol was protocol, though, no matter how strange the situation was. They pulled the lever, they flipped the switch. It's time for New Game +. ??? Don't be afraid to leave critique or share your support! I really appreciate any feedback you can give. In any case, I sincerely hope you enjoy the story! It's going to be a wild ride.

Hello everybody, BoredNerdBooks here. In this web novel I bring back to life the story Binary blood. For those of you who have read the Original, my story operates with the same basic premise but with a few changes like who the main character is and to how the LitRPG, mission, shop, and classes work.(I made them more powerful) And now to the real synopsis. So a weird day starts when you wake up in an escape pod hurtling towards a planet with no idea how you got there. A terrible day is when you get attacked by weird semi-robotic monsters. And an absolutely AWESOME day ends with you getting superpowers because of it. Many thanks to The Irregular for giving me permission to write this. Also, I do not own the cover image if whoever owns it wants it down contact me and I will replace it.

As a scapegoat, only the dreadful things followed: social execution, familial abuse, and hate. To avoid the defamation of the family, he was avoided and was only treated as a tool. In his mind, the value of life itself degraded, while his hate for humans grew.This is the story of Roran, and his savior Death. He gets reincarnated with a new purpose: to exact revenge on the humans of the new world, Arcadia -- while undertaking the Death God's mission.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Author: Constructive Criticism is welcome!
