Chapter 178

[11th Round] Of The People, By The…

The Western Continent was the easiest to level up in among the Five Continents. It was all thanks to the Lucifers.

▷ Race: Giant Bug

▷ Level: 89

▷ Job: Traveler (Travel → Experience ↑)

▷ Skills: Growth D Flight E Cooperation E Survival F Breeding F…

▷ Status: Relaxed

However, humans weren’t the only ones eating them. It was the staple food of almost all monsters and animals living in the Western Continent. Therefore, the longer you survived in the Western Continent, the stronger you would inevitably become. Because of this deformed environment, the Western Continent had the highest level of difficulty.

However, once you get used to it, there was no other place as easy to level up as here. Imagine wiping out a swarm of Lucifers with a technique capable of mass destruction. It was a chunk of experience that wouldn’t decrease no matter how much you kill, but it was gentle and had little combat ability, so it wasn’t a threat at all.

Therefore…

“Ladies and Gentlemen. Starting today, you will hunt for Lucifer. I won’t discuss the means and methods. I’ll feed you fish every time you rise ten levels. You may think that the low level is advantageous, but the higher the level, the more the amount of dishes increases. Do you have any questions?”

“…”

“…”

A total of a hundred and one people, including those who died in an accident, were resurrected the next day and gathered in front of me. After listening to my explanation, a little bit of hope began to appear on their faces. They must think it was worth a try.

I thought so, too.

“If you don’t have any questions, you’re dismissed!”

Hopefully, this time there would be some significant results. Mollan.

*

The life of the miscellaneous fellows in the Western Continent gradually entered the safe track. They diligently hunted Lucifer as I intended and raised their level, and they ate fish once every two days. Level 10 in two days, Level 20 in four days, Level 30 in six days…

In this way, the average level of these lowly fellows had risen by 50 in just ten days. The Level 1 heroes, who were complete newbies, also developed survival strategies and quickly raised their level. In some cases, they could easily catch one or two Lucifer by flattering or flirting with the returnee students or gather some help from the natives or returnee students in exchange for their share of fish.

The seventy heroes who suffered from slightly loosened sphincters also quickly recovered through physical therapy and psychological counseling at the estate. They had to use the restroom much more often than the average person, so they were very slow to hunt, but as their sphincters improved, they began to gain momentum.

Proud: I think Cadet Kang Han-soo has what it takes to be an educator. You’re a great teacher who understands the students’ minds.

Miss Trainee Teacher! Please refrain from making such terrible remarks as they could damage our secret friendship! Besides, not everything worked out.

“Leave me alone.”

“Mom, I want to see you. Hehe…”

There were about 10 F-Classes who didn’t even show the will to live, including the friend who lost his mind after being attacked by the goblins.

There were different reasons among them. The values ​​that they couldn’t take a life, religious ideology not to fight, that it was dangerous outside the blanket, apathetic that it doesn’t matter if they’re weak, a picky eater who hates fish, and one whose sphincter was completely dead…

“I will respect your noble will.”

I had no intention of forcing them. They were kidnapped into a savage fantasy world, and the kidnappers forced them to take on the dangerous task of killing the Demon King. It had already been decades, but the negative feelings of fear and anger I felt at that time were still somewhere in me.

That was why I could relate. But I just wanted to tell them this. The fundamental reason why I, who was a good citizen who couldn’t squish a single cockroach, became a little bit violent.

“This is a brutal world. It is a place where human rights are violated if you don’t become strong. No one listens, even if you complain about how unfair it is. Power is the law. A beautiful fantasy world? Only if you are strong.”

For the weak, this was hell. Goblins and orcs greeted you when you left the village or city, and troll attacks were as common as a birthday party. A dragon with dementia whose behavior was inappropriate to its age caused disasters, and there was a wild mercenary and a ruthless noble who were like living bombs.

Even the Earth, a capitalist planet, wasn’t a safe place for the weak, but legal safeguards such as civil and criminal lawsuits exist. My mother’s tennis racket was extraterritorial!

Laugh: I feel it sometimes. Cadet Kang Han-soo, when you talk about your mother, it seems like she’s going to tear apart a black hole with her tennis racket.

Haha! You’re so full of imagination, Lady Trainee Teacher! My mother is an ordinary housewife who likes to play tennis. She can’t even slice carrots, let alone black holes. Does it mean that my father cooks for us instead?

Ah! He’s good at hitting hard.

“That is for us to decide.”

“Violence is the worst.”

“My fantasy can’t be like this.”

“It’s safe inside the blanket! I know it!”

The F-Class heroes were deaf to my explanation. I nodded as a sign of understanding to them and turned around without hesitation. They were promptly removed from the protection list.

They were completely mistaken. The Lord here provided the minimum amount of food, clothing, and shelter for free to useless humans because of the great MAX-Class hero. Sooner or later, they would realize it.

It didn’t even take a day. The Lord carefully monitored the F-Class heroes who were excluded from the list. He took advantage of the opening and dragged them down to the abyss. Taxes, sexual harassment, insults, aiding and abetting, heretics…

The weak were guilty just by breathing.

“How come there is such a law in this world? Is it a sin if a woman does not have children!?”

“I won’t say much. If you don’t want to follow, get out of my estate.”

“What about the other women?”

“They’re not your business.”

The trial quickly ended, and the disobedient female hero was expelled from the territory. She was resummoned fifteen days later. She didn’t say anything about how she lived and died. Shortly after she was resurrected, she married a naive native young man.

The fate of the others was similar. Let’s hear the story of the hero who endured the longest.

“It’s not fair! I was just sitting in my blanket! How could I have sexually harassed the maid who cleans up!? This is a setup! I didn’t put the finger on her body!”

“Bring me the evidence.”

“How about the evidence that I sexually harassed her?”

“Why do I need that evidence?”

“…Pardon?”

“Listen well. The maid is a child I love enough to let bathe with my lovely wife. Unless there is clear evidence that she wasn’t sexually harassed, I have no choice but to support her. Isn’t it natural for a man to side with his family?”

“Ah…”

The F-Class hero, who was kicked out of the safety blanket, lost his free accommodations and was hit with sticks in the square. That was a horrific sight that, as a man, I couldn’t watch with my eyes open.

“Looks like it’s pretty much laid out here.”

The remaining heroes who witnessed the end of the weak worked even harder. Even though a single goblin was still too much for most of the fellows, the 500% experience boost was reducing the time needed to grow quickly.

It meant it was time for me to move on.

Surprised: Will you deal with the Five Great Disasters alone? I thought you’d grow the dust here and fight together.

Time is money, my friend! I can’t wait for the motes to grow into a larger piece of dust. And already, I’ve spent as many as twenty days caring for these elementary school students.

No matter how meddlesome and soft a hero I am, there are limits to this.

“I can’t do anything further than this.”

Because these miscellaneous fellows caught me, the countless natives living in the Western Continent had suffered for another twenty days. It was like throwing away a million people to save a hundred! I was forced to follow a judgment I should never have made as a righteous and fair hero because of the biases of the Fantasy God.

The Fantasy God was a cancer in the education world.

At a Loss: I’ll remain silent.

Miss Trainee Teacher, you’re so good socially. Your husband will love you.

Yelling: There is no connection between work and marital life?!

This lady is nervous even if I praise her, huh?

“Oh! Drug hero, are you finally going on an adventure?”

The First Spirit, who just sat idle all day on top of my head, asked for confirmation with a smile. She seemed happy just to see outside like this, but she still harbored the romance of adventure as she was a fellow hero. I shook my head and denied it.

This chapter is scrapped from readlightnovel.org

“This is not an adventure.”

The adventure was exploring and challenging the unknown world. But from now on, what I was going to do was simple subjugation. Although there was had changed significantly, it was nothing more than a review of defeating the Five Great Disasters that I had already defeated once.

Of course, I also prepared for look after the elementary school students for the past twenty days. I learned how to handle corpses from the Lord, and I continued to acquire production-related skills while visiting the forges and clothing stores around.

It wasn’t such a hard job.

▷ Type: Skill

▷ Name: Gifted

▷ Grade: ZZ (35%)

ZZZ: ???

ZZ: Reconstruct from the source.

Z: Breaking the limit becomes slightly easier.

▷ SSS: Dexterity increases significantly.

▷ SS: Success rate increases significantly.

▷S: Proficiency increases significantly.

▷A: Experience increases significantly.

▷ B: Dexterity increases slightly.

▷ C: Success rate increases slightly.

▷ D: Proficiency increases slightly.

▷ E: Experience increases slightly.

▷F: Seems extraordinary from the first impression.

The Gifted Skill synergized well with the production skills. Dexterity, success rate, and proficiency. It was dexterity that allowed even me to do delicate work, and the production-related skills increased in proficiency the more I successfully created something.

That wasn’t the end.

▷ Type: Race

Name: Universal Human

Class: The First

The First 1: Control the universe to the extent of a molecule.

▷ Characteristic 1: Favored by the universe.

▷ Race 1: Spirit.

It wasn’t enough to just say that my success rate, which was lucky to be corrected for with the favoritism of the universe, was 100%. Here, the energy of the universe was contained in every mote of dust. If I were to make a sword, it would be good enough to be called a treasured sword, the clothes made even ugly women look beautiful, and my cooking was fantastic enough to make even people allergic to Lucifer eat it.

The ‘Command’ that controlled the corpses was no exception.

“Lead the beloved Lord well.”

“Yes, Master.”

I surpassed the ability of the Lord, who taught me the Command skill. Although I still lacked in pure ability, it wasn’t difficult if I used the energy of the universe. It was to the extent where I could take control of the Lord’s wife, whom he loved the most.

It was an action with a very slim success rate, but to me, even 1% was equal to 100%, so that I could steal it easily. The Lord, who realized this belatedly, looked as if he had lost the whole world but soon accepted the reality and vowed to obey me. The price of loyalty was his wife’s, devoted love!

It wasn’t that bad for the Lord. After all, his wife, who was like a doll, was able to express herself like a living creature and move independently. This was also thanks to the energy of the universe.

“Sigh…why the hell is this guy so meddlesome…?”

Am I, the hero, too kind?

Sniffle: What a touching ending. I felt sorry for the Lord every time he looked at his dead wife lovingly without admitting it. Cadet Kang Han-soo, you have saved the poor soul wandering in despair.

Miss Trainee Teacher, it’s still too early to be impressed. From now on, let’s watch the Autumn Plowing Show prepared by this hero!

It wasn’t only the miscellaneous heroes that enjoyed accelerated growth in this entrance exam center. The person who benefited the most from it was none other than me. All the preparations were in place.

I increased the Transcendental Realm Skill to be used as a sacrifice as much as possible. It wasn’t difficult initially, but as the Transcendental Realm Skills increased, the number of sacrifices needed to break the limit increased, and it became difficult. If it hadn’t been easy to raise production-related skills, I wouldn’t have even dared.

“Drug hero! You can’t forget our help!”

Of course, the freeloading spirits and the favoritism of the universe had been a great help. This was because I was able to secure several special series skills that were difficult to obtain through hard work, thanks to them.

“Well! Let’s get this show started! Of the predator~ by the predator~ for the predator~.”

It was a fantasy world of the strong, by the strong, for the strong after all.
