A Chronicle of Life in a Different World
Episode 375: The Power to Explode Part 1
A month and a half passed when the Reurus and the others began to build the town.
Two weeks after the visit of Diego, who served the Count of Velg, Reurus felt full for the first time in his life. Although Reurus himself was surprised by the unexpected “change”, it did not have a negative impact on town building.
Under the direction of Collard, the workers united to encourage town building, and Reurus worked as usual.
But not everything can be said to be the same. It is true that the “diet” of Reurus has changed, but there are other parts that have changed.
Until now, it was okay to stay up all night for about five days, but that became impossible.
One or two days is fine, but after three days of staying up all night, I became drowsy and couldn't stay awake. Taking a short but few hours of nap can endure a little longer, but I'm less sleepy than before.
"No, it's just that things have been strange so far, if you're sleepy, you don't mind sleeping. Instead, it's just strange that I stayed up all night for five days... well, it's because it's strange."
Collard, who talked to Reurus with a troubled face, replied with a true face.
"The monster raid has calmed down recently, and it is inconvenient to be vigilant in such a way that it is burdensome for you alone... so the order of the night shift will be decided properly, so rest accordingly. Is that good?"
According to Collard, Reurus's behavior, which has been sleepless for days in a row, seemed more strange than anything else.
At the beginning of the construction of the town, the black snake raided and there were too many monsters around the town, so we had to rely on the power of the Reurus. Collard was up as much as he could, but he wanted to leave it to me to know what happened to Reurus.
However, the town was still surrounded by empty moats and earthen walls, and during the day, the monsters stopped coming due to the influence of Reurus and the others working on the monster hunt. There are few monsters in the world who want to jump over empty moats and earthen walls and raid towns.
Then, even if I jumped into the town, within a minute, Reus struck the Dragon Slasher with one hand and quickly took it down. As a result of repeated “tragedies," the monsters began to learn that it was dangerous to approach the town.
Therefore, even if Reurus says, "It's hard to wake up in the middle of the night for days in a row," Collard can only say, "Go to sleep." Even with Reurus asleep, there's plenty of room for Dwarfs and adventurers.
As a result, Reurus is able to lead a healthier life than ever before. I don't eat as much as I can, I sleep well when I fall asleep, and I work in the morning.
It was a revulsion that encouraged township while living such a healthy life, but the answer is no as to whether the pace of work has fallen.
As a result of the overflowing vitality aimed at killing monsters and opening them up, they were able to perform more efficiently than ever before.
Sometimes I also practice "strengthening" and check the physical ability of "status quo”, and run around the town to hunt monsters.
Sometimes the dwarf cuts the tree with an axe, pulls out the root of the tree, and carries the cut tree.
Sometimes you wake up the dirt in the corner of town by shaking the trees and encouraging them to grow fields.
Sometimes it spreads empty moats at a pace that exceeds the dwarf and builds up a large amount of dirt and sand.
Then move your body to reduce your stomach, eat, and move your body again. I was living a really healthy life thinking of "life to date”: washing my body if it gets dirty and sleeping if it gets sleepy.
Reurus is not as accustomed to civil engineering as dwarfs, but using "reinforcement" in combination with practice compensates for unfamiliarity and demonstrates extra physical abilities.
If the dwarf takes the initiative to undertake difficult labor tasks, the dwarf's hand can be allocated to other tasks free of charge. This will lead to more and more townships.
It has become difficult to frequently perform night-time bedtime duties, but the “change” in Reurus can be said to have contributed greatly to the construction of the town.
As a result, the trees that were native around the town disappeared nearly fifty meters from the empty moat. The dwarves, too, were cut from their roots and their houses were cut down with the participation of Reurus.
The felled trees are transported into the town and processed into building materials, except for natural drying. At the place where the roots were pulled out and even, the ground was even, and the trees fell everywhere, but until then, the part where the forest had been turned into a flat land.
Of course, it is a small scale from the entire forest around the town. Still, a flat land of nearly 50 meters between the town and the forest made it difficult for monsters to approach.
"Phew... how many are there now?
On that day, Reurus carried the cut tree into the town while maintaining the 'fortification'.
At the corner of town are logs of trees that have been harvested from surrounding forests, but the number is very large. With the help of the dwarves, more than 500 trees had already been brought into the town.
The transported trees are processed sequentially, but some are rolled in logs with only a few.
"Five hundred and thirty-two in all. It's not enough to work on building materials and dry them up... to build a large number of houses of that size, but if we can secure building materials locally, we can still build towns."
Calvin, who had brought the tree alone with the other dwarves, told him to capture it, and Reurus looked a little disgusted.
"This isn't enough at all... how much other building materials do you need?
"I want stone, but I don't think there's enough rock near the town. Isn't that what you need to cut down a rocky mountain with a griffon?
"That's how you get rid of Griffons, but isn't it hard to get stone from there? It was in the materials that Diego brought me, like building bricks...."
"I don't know what the ingredients are... but I need a kiln to make brick tiles in the first place..."
That's how I was talking to Calvin while I was working.
Reurus! Heat is moving towards town! The number is... one, but it's a little big!
Sarah, who was helping with other tasks, said that it was not suitable for hard work, received an "ideological call." Reurus, who heard the words, lowered his logs and looked around.
What's the direction?
Those who have Reurus! The town's... uh, west side!
Reurus, who confirmed the direction, rushed out immediately. We were armed so that the monsters could attack us whenever they wanted, so we could move to interception immediately.
A big heat source is a big monster? What the hell is... this magic?)
Reus jumped over the earthen walls and out of town, feeling magic in the woods.
Just out of town, the distance to the forest is nearly fifty meters, but still feeling the magic is “big”. Reurus, who thought so, grasped the pattern of the "Dragon Slasher" and pulled it out of the sheath.
Compared to before, I was immediately full, so I could eat less, but I'm not going to miss the “food.” In addition, coming to town is clearly an enemy.
(If it's an affordable opponent, it's a practice platform to fight with Reinforcement... no, don't be alarmed.)
It has been nearly two weeks since you were able to use Enhancements, but I am not confident that you will be able to maintain them in battle, even if you move your body slightly. For this reason, Reurus decided not to be alarmed and set up a "Dragon Slash" to find out how the opponent came out.
Sarah said there was only one source of heat, so it wouldn't be a griffon acting in a herd. Because I could feel the heat source normally, the line called black snake was also thin.
In that case, it was a realuse that I thought of as a transformed bear, but not only magic, but I felt the feeling of intimidation in the air and raised my eyebrows.
(This killing... isn't that bear.)
Reurus tightens his expression with an intimidating feeling of tingling and trembling skin that doesn't seem like a faded bear.
Reurus, do you have backup?
First, evacuate the nearby workers...
The moment I answered Sarah's words so far, I sewed the gap between the trees and the flash blinked. When he realized it, Reus put magic into the Dragon Slash and waved it to match the killing intent directed at him.
(I heard you said it was rare, but... did it really come out?)
Reurus, who struck the lightning strike, turned his eyebrows toward the back of the forest.
It was Kimira, a monster with deep connections, who was there as a revus. However, the body is slightly larger than that of the individuals that Reurus has seen before.
Although it is a visual observation, the body is close to five meters. The lion monster with two heads is thick not only in body length, but also in limbs, and the black outer shell covering the tip of the hands and feet is thick. The tails of the three snakes were also thick and long compared to the Kimira I've seen before.
"... when the evacuation of the workers is complete, I need backup. The opponent is Kimira... and it looks pretty strong too."
Large bodies mean they've lived that long. Very experienced and likely tough.
I don't think I can afford to think about this. Reurus decided that the load was too much to fight while being distracted by the control of "strengthening".
― Caloric Release .
Therefore, I will fight with all my strength from the beginning.
There's too much magic in there. As long as you conserve magic and see painful eyes, you can deplete magic and make up for it with a "prey in front of you”.
Reurus thought so - but he feels uncomfortable with his body as usual.
The body of Reurus is more powerful than "strengthening". Blow magic all over your body and lean forward with your canine teeth peeled out.
(Eh... this... first...)
“More power than usual.” The instinct of the struggle is stimulated, and with magic, the killer spirit is overflowing.
"Ghhhhhhhhhhhh!
Reurus roared as if he was releasing the magic that raged around his body.
