The World Is Overflowing with Monster, I’m Taking a Liking to This Life

Then a few minutes later, Nishino and Rokuka arrived.

"And the rest of you?

"I'm helping City Hall. Me and Roppo are falling out because we're taking a break."

"Natsu, were you okay? Worried."

Don't come. Rokka-chan hugs Ichinose.

And scrape your cheeks.

Mr. Ichinose has a bright red face and a wolf.

"Hey, Rich, don't suddenly hug me."

"Then I'll hold you now. Muggy."

"That's not what I meant."

Two JK beautiful girls who get intimate by leaving the men alone. Oh, one ex?

You're really close.

"... I'm sorry, Roppo bothered you"

"Why are you apologizing Nishino?

"No, if he did something, I would've apologized."

"... you're struggling"

"I'm used to it."

Ha, and Nishino, who laughs bitterly.

Was Roppo swinging at school, too?

Yeah, something like that comes to my attention. There's something sad about your smile...

You look more social than I do...

"So, 'Evolution' is safely over, isn't it?

"Yeah, you're right."

Spread your hands around me.

Even so, the appearance remains the same.

Nishino said, "What's changed? 'He has a look like that.

"For once, we have chosen an evolutionary destination that remains the same as before. What do you think from Nishino or Aisaka? Is anything uncomfortable?

"Hmmm......"

Nishino looks at me and Ichinose with a shine.

Out of that gaze, Mr. Ichinose missed his face.

Communism survives even as it evolves. Don't throw up, okay? Don't ever throw up, okay?

"... it doesn't feel strange when it comes to this"

"That's right, are you with me before? Oh, but I can feel a stronger vibe from you than before."

Doesn't it seem particularly strange from the eyes of both of us?

The strong atmosphere of Rokka-chan is likely to be influenced by an increase in status and a change in profession.

I feel pretty strong myself.

"The name of the race was' Newbie (Arabito) '- wasn't it? It doesn't look the same as before, did it make any difference?

"Yes."

"Email" also explained the evolutionary destinations, but again, "Newbie (Arabito)" and other evolutionary destinations.

There are more than ten types, so it took me quite a while to explain.

"… an increase in the status of just over 20%, is it possible to extend to that? That's kind of a vague explanation, huh?

"Yeah, but I thought this was the best part."

I have no regrets about the choice.

No, Ichinose-san's cat ears look a little - no, I wanted to see them quite a bit, but I have no regrets.

I don't know.

"Well, I wanted to see Nat's cat's ear."

Ooh, Rokka spoke for my heart.

"Rich..."

"Oh, I'm sorry, Nat. Just kidding. Don't look at me like that. I'm a little scared."

"Mm."

Mr. Ichinose on the fluffy side pounds Roppo. Lovely.

"... Mr. Kudo, choosing where to evolve means that you will continue to act with us, right?

"" - Huh. "

Nishino stops perfectly with your words.

The sight of the three of us concentrates on me.

"... yes, you're right"

"Really... good"

I'm relieved, Nishino said.

Both Mr. Ichinose and Mr. Rokukawa seem relieved.

"I mean, I even taught him about skills and 'item boxes'. I don't think you're going to leave me like this."

- Yes. After the battle, I taught Nishino about the "Item Box".

Instead, Nishino asked me.

"You have the skill of an item box, don't you? '.

From his battles with Alpa Titan and his previous actions, he seems convinced that I have 'item boxes' or similar skills.

Even though I was surprised, Nishino even guessed that I had uprooted supplies around the home center and treated myself for being attacked and wounded by a high oak.

... Nishino-kun, you're too smart.

On the boulder. This got me a little alarmed through stunning.

I trusted Nishino, just in case.

In some cases, I also thought I would look at leaving here with Momo and Ichinose.

But such worries were worrying.

'It's okay, we're not going to parasitize you or be luggage. So why don't we continue to work with each other?

That was like seeing through my mind.

He expected me and Ichinose to be annoyed by the relationship and fear that they might rely on me and my skills in the item box.

... Why are you doing bad things when you can care so much, this kid?

Anyway, this is how we officially got our hands together.

Even for me, Nishino would have welcomed a buddy like you, and Ichinose would have liked to be with Roppo.

... The problem is that Ichinose-san's familiarity hasn't healed at all, but I can't help it anymore.

Come on, Ichinose.

I'm sure you could also earn 'People-Tolerance' and 'Communion Tolerance'. I want you to acquire 'vomit tolerance' first if you can. True.

"Evolution in LV30, though. We're still ahead of us."

"Right."

"What is the current level between you two?

I hadn't confirmed it yet, but after that fight, didn't we both get to a pretty good level?

"I'm LV21, right? I got to the level all at once in that fight. And I learned new skills."

"I'm LV15. Rokkawa pulled me apart."

Rokuka is LV21, Nishino is LV15...

I thought we both earned a lot of experience, but we're certainly still ahead of us to the LV30.

What's the new skill Rokka remembers?

Could it be a bonus skill when you defeat Alpa?

Don't worry about it.

"I will, and I'm the next one to evolve. Because it makes more and more difference to Nissy."

"Say it. But you're gonna have to talk to him so he doesn't pick weird evolutionary destinations, right? You're the only one I'm worried about."

I know. I'm really worried about Nissy.

Pussy angry Rokuka-chan and Nishino, who appropriately recieves it.

You guys are really close.

By the way, I've heard the level of the other members, but it seems that Shibata is currently LV13 and Goshogawara is LV12. On average, the other members seem to be about 8-10.

He also told me that and the level of city hall members.

The mayor has LV3, Fujita has LV16, Shimizu chief has LV19, and the guy with two articles has LV12.

Even though I can't go outside, was the mayor still at a low level?

And what do you care, fresh water chief...

Isn't that second to Rokka?

When I asked him how he looked it up, he told me normally.

He also taught me about his profession.

That was an unexpected occupation. He was in that profession...

"I am grateful to have prior information on where we are evolving. Let me help you."

"Yeah, go ahead. If a different species than us comes up with a choice, let me know. I'll look into it."

"Thank you then.... By the way, Mr. Kudo."

"Hmm? What is it?

At first glance, Nishino had a serious look on his face.

No, it's usually a serious look.

"Have you decided how it will work in the future yet?

"... um, right..."

Upcoming plans?

"For now, the problem at the moment is the recovery of Aka, right? If Aka doesn't regain her power, she'll be in the way of future action."

"... (sighs)"

Aca's newly acquired skills can dramatically expand the scope of future actions.

But to do so, it is necessary to allow the acorn to absorb the slime again.

I need to regain my drained power.

Slime hunting at sea. Hunt, hunt, hunt.

"In parallel, are you checking newly acquired skills and professions, checking collaboration at parties, fighting monsters in action, gathering information and securing food, and raising levels?"

Well, the things you do are the same as before.

Thanks to just having a 'safety zone', I can act more sparingly on my mind than before.

When I hear that, Nishino puts his hand on his chin.

"Cheng Cheng... By the way, what do you do with Fujita?

"What do you mean?

"It must be decided. It's about the item box."

"Oh, right..."

I put my arms together and look up at the ceiling.

To be honest...... I was lost.

At first I was going to talk to Fujita alone... but then it would inevitably pass on to the mayor, the Shimizu chief, and other members as well.

I think Fujita is a trustworthy person, but not even the people around him.

... like my former colleague who ran wild, this city hall isn't a single rock either.

"... If you're lost, I think you should keep your mouth shut"

Nishino said that to me. [M]

"As things stand, there are only disadvantages to telling city hall members about the item box, including Fujita. It should be shared among us alone. … at least not yet"

"... not yet, what?

"I mean premature. If things change, I think we should rather talk. Because Fujita and Shimizu are moving now."

"I see... is that what you mean?"

Nishino, I see what you're trying to say.

Sure, then it will taste good to us too.

"Huh? What? What are you talking about?

Rokuka, on the other hand, is not sure or has her neck clenched.

"Rokka. How many residents do you think are in this city hall right now?

"Heh? Uh, about 120 people?

"Twenty-eight. There's been a slight increase since the quest was completed."

Did it increase again?

By the way, hearing about the current number of people, Mr. Ichinose is already blue.

There will be more people = Mr. Ichinose. It is a diagram of despair.

... Don't throw up, huh?

"Wouldn't it be a good thing if we were growing in numbers? But we're gonna have to get people together again to raise the level of" Town Building, "right?

"Oh, that's not a bad thing in itself. The problem is, of all the people gathered, there are very few skill holders who have defeated monsters and increased their level."

"Huh? Was I?

"You, you were listening to Fujita next to me. Remember how many of these City Hall skill holders are right now?

"Uh... about fifty people? Um, oh, I remember! Forty-eight."

"... you were surprisingly proper listening. That's great."

"Eh heh."

Nishino, you stroke Rokuka's head.

"It's just... more limited when it becomes something that can fight the monster, the one who can properly explore in it. There's about 30 of us, including our group."

Has it not reached even a quarter of the total number of people?

That's lower than I expected.

No, there would have been more.

There have been quite a few deaths in the fight against Alpa.

"A number of ordinary people who don't have the power to fight either. There's no point in presenting food in the item box to them like that. You can't expect 'in return' just to be consumed for nothing, can you?" Gratuitous goodwill "is a peaceful word."

"... yeah"

Tough, but Nishino is right.

We're not moving in good faith.

Food - it also provides food that can be preserved without spoiling, so I want it in return.

Though it is a mundane idea, otherwise the world will not survive today.

Nishino looks at me again.

"Fujita and Shimizu are also worried about the current situation. Looks like he's urging residents to change their minds beside the post-war process."

"Heh..."

You mean you're persuading me to fight monsters?

Surely if all the residents here become skill holders and can fight monsters, we can expect enough in return as well.

In return for the name 'Power of War'.

"By the way, Nishino, what's your ideal situation?

"… at least 70% of all people are skill holders, and all of them are trained to fight monsters? Well, it's only ideal.

If we get that far, this place will function well enough as a base. Maybe the owners of the other 'item boxes' will come out, and then Mr. Kudo's secrecy will fade. Can we say enough in return for food?

"I see... maybe that would be nice indeed"

I hate unilateral relationships.

Any relationship that leans on one side or the other will eventually break down.

Well, I think Fujita would do a good job of picking it up.

"Now let's not talk about 'item boxes' yet. But can you hide it?

"It won't be a problem. You may not have heard of Kudo or Ichinose yet, but the expansion of the Safe Zone now offers a private space."

"Huh? Really?

It's my first ear.

Oh, could it have been decided while we were sleeping?

"Yeah, just some skill holders and key members, though. Our group was also given a few safe vacant houses on the north side of City Hall. You can use gas, water, electricity."

Heh, that's amazing.

If you don't have other people's eyes, you can hide the existence of an item box.

"By the way, there's a decent room for girls. Nappy, let's live together."

"Oh, the... okay? Isn't it annoying that I live with you?

"Why are you being so humble there! It's a good decision. When I was in middle school, I wanted to sleep with you, take a bath."

"Ugh, yeah, thanks, Rich.... but I guess bathing with you is a little embarrassing................... Rich, you have a good style."

"Uh, okay, I don't care. Come in with me."

"No, the... ugh... yeah"

Mr. Ichinose was pushed off by force.

Her face is bright red.

At least living with Rokka-chan seems agreeable in itself.

"Of course, Mr. Kudo has a decent room. It's a sunny room for one."

"Ho... that's a very attractive suggestion"

"Isn't it? And I don't care how much you eat elsewhere out of sight. Isn't that right?

"Hehe, right"

Then, me and Nishino, your stomach rings at the same time.

Speaking of which, I'm starving.

Come to think of it, I haven't slept in two days and eaten my meal in a busy manner.

"I've been up late at night, shall we eat something? Do you have a request?

"Is that okay?... To tell you the truth, I'd love to have meat or something for a while... No, I'm not saying it's impossible..."

Sweet, Nishino.

Enough meat storage in my item box.

"There's thick chopped steak or something. There are also seasoned halibut and tan salt. Of course, rice. I became one of them because of it. Why don't we go a little extravagant today to commemorate?

Nishino, there is plenty of room to pay for eating with your group.

Occasional luxury won't punish you.

Come on, blah, blah. I want to eat meat, too.

I want hot steak meat and cheeks and white rice caught.

No, I guess I'd rather have a garlic rice or something.

The accompaniment is a shiitake mushroom draped in soy sauce by sucking on the oil of the meat.

Shit, just thinking makes me covet.

"Mr. Kudo... it's so good to see you"

Shake hands with me and Nishino in disappointment.

"... by the way, we eat meat in the midst of the residents twitching. Do you feel guilty about that?

"None."

I assure you, Nishino.

The charm of the meat. The resistance.

And we laughed black at each other.

"You're breaking up."

"That would be the same for Mr. Kudo, wouldn't it? Otherwise, there's no way I'm gonna tell you to join hands with us."

"Ha, you're right. You're a total terrible guy, to each other."

"Yeah, really"

Then we reconfirmed our plans for the future and headed to the empty house where you were offered Nishino.

Well, let's take a rest today and start acting in earnest tomorrow.

... By the way, the one who ate the most meat that night was Momo.

I was eating thick steak that didn't taste good.

Totally replaced it. Who the hell thinks I'm gonna bake it? It's gonna take a lot of work.

"Wow."

Come on, stop rattling your plate with the karakara.

Stop looking at me like I'm going to want that stuff.

... just one more piece, so hey.

I'm worried that Momo's tongue will get fat at all.
