Chapter 31: Gossip about the hero of Gritonia

Translator Note:

Another hero chapter, next one will be a new arc and back to Makoto.

Well, I honestly liked the chapter a lot. More than i expected. It had a pretty good twist.

By the way, I have been having problems with the web lately and have been unable to enter sometimes. Don’t know if this happens to anyone as well.

Anyways, enjoy the chapter 😀

—–

The one who got caught in the web, a person with golden hair that reached his back wearing snow white clothes.

Before the eyes of the man that couldn’t understand the situation, was a woman. From all the existences that he has seen, she was the most charming and beautiful.

Especially those clear emerald green eyes that were shrouded in mystery, when he looked at them he felt as if his sense of reality dispersed, to the point that he felt great joy that this woman took interest in him.

And he felt at the same time a holiness that should never be soiled.

Even though she was a beauty that couldn’t be imagined, could she still appear in one’s dreams?

But it wasn’t a dream.

The woman said to the youth. That she herself was a goddess.

That she didn’t have enough power and the world she was protecting was overflowed with demons.

The boy wanted to help but he knew that he didn’t have any power so he wouldn’t be of any help, is what the boy said to the pleading goddess as he declined.

In reality, he was powerless and it wasn’t like he was good at his studies.

His physical ability was so-so, in studies he is somewhere in the middle top.

That he is a kind and gentle person sounds good but, in reality, he was being bullied by others.

As expected, he didn’t have the intention of telling this to the woman though.

The reason of the bullying wasn’t anything complicated.

Simply put, it was because he was popular.

The problem was, his appearance was abnormally good, just because of that the people were making a racket.

A slender good looking man that was like he came right out of a shoujo manga. Moreover, in that slender body was without any falsehood, a somewhat weak constitution. That part was also a plus for the girls.

He didn’t place much effort, furthermore, it wasn’t as if he made direct advances on the girls.

That ignorance boiled the anger of the male students. Being protected by the female students made the treatment of him even worse.

He himself was, honestly, scared of the girls. That’s why he tried to stay away from them but the other side approached him.

Moreover since that instilled the anger of the male students, when he tried to stay away from the girls it increased the hate even more.

What is it they want him to do? And so, his attendance to school became fewer.

The call of the Goddess came at that point in time.

“It’s fine, you have a big power in you. And going to my world will awaken it. Moreover I will, of course, be giving you power. That’s why, please”

If the call was a bit after.

Or maybe in the past.

He may have declined. He yearned for such a game’s main character situation but he would have still chosen reality.

“R-Really? Someone like me can do it?”

The matter when the bullying in school began.

And the fact that he couldn’t find any solution to it and ended up secluding himself in his home.

The fact that his parents began to condemn him for his un-attendances.

The circumstances that encircled him were all unpleasant.

“Of course, it’s impossible if it’s not you. There will be another girl that will be your partner and has made her decision on walking this path. Oh hero, please lend me your strength”

The other party was a lovely woman, a goddess. And she was petitioning him. Moreover, it seems he wasn’t the only one.

She said that there would be a girl partner. The part about being a girl bothered him a bit but it shouldn’t be someone he knows, also, it would be reassuring if there is another person from the same world.

That’s what he thought.

“You said you would be giving me power but, what will you be giving me?”

For him, that part was important. An RPG that began from level 1 was bothersome. Recently, in RPGs and even SRGs, he has been enjoying them by modding them first. He was warped.

At least it wasn’t a decision that should be taken with such a cheap game thinking. Because not a single time did the woman say that ‘You can return’ after all. However, being a goddess he couldn’t calmly hear her completely but, she must be able to return him.

“A body that can fight against the demon beasts, magic power that outdoes that of the demon race, a demonic eye skill that can enslave the people. Also, I will give you this ‘silver boots’ that will let you soar in the skies and cure your fatigue”

How is it? Is what the goddess said while looking at the boy.

The boy was secretly jumping with joy in his heart. It was quite the thing. If you began a game with that many special privileges there would definitely be a balance break*. He could feel how much of a power he was being given. <TN: P2W :v”

With this, he may be able to cope with most of the situations. If it’s possible he would want a special ability of sorts but it wasn’t good to provoke any animosity. The boy was troubled and couldn’t give an answer.

However, if this is truly no good, then this dream-like situation will just become a dream and tomorrow he will only continue living his unchanging life inside his room so, he came out firmly.

“Then, it will burden your magic power a bit but, only at nights I will make you immortal. However, this power will only be at nights and at the time when the moon is out”

It increased. Without saying any words, the goddess gave in.

He didn’t know that this was because the goddess was being troubled by time. He was just happy.

If he fights at night he will not lose. He made such a wrong interpretation of that power.

“I understand, Goddess-sama. I am not sure if I can do it but I will do my best in this thing called hero”

As if he was creating a favor, he made a big decision and told her his feelings of acknowledgment.

Hearing these words, the beautiful woman was really happy and made the best smile of the day.

‘The one who wants to say thank you is me’ is what the boy said while showing a dark smile. In the world he will be going he will be STRONG, moreover he can do whatever he wants and no one will be able to say anything about it. If he can attract the people then he won’t face bullying.

When he thought the words ‘no one’ he felt something pierce his chest but he shook it off. He was enveloped by a golden color.

He should have stopped. The boy had difficulties he could gain from after all. He was clearly different from the other two.

That the difficulty was his parents? It may be a small interchange but if his friends were to notice the situation, he would have been able to return.

It was an assumption that will not be realized anymore.

In the next instant, he, Iwahashi Tomoki, went to the other world.

“Is this the world of the Goddess?”

In the strange dusty place, one girl was there and a number of people that were wearing clothes that looked like the ones monks or priests use, the people step back from the side of the girl.

“… Are you, Hero-dono? Do you understand my words?”

“?! Ah, yeah. I can understand” (Tomoki*) <TN: Damn it, I don’t want you to have that name>

Because he hasn’t done a proper conversation in a long time, Tomoki had a weird behavior while responding.

Even though it wasn’t as much as the beautiful Goddess from a few moments ago, the girl that was in front of him also had an abnormally well-made outward appearance and was one of the reasons of his weird behavior.

Being a third year in middle school, he is already more than 180cm tall, looking at the girl that called him out he could see that she only reached his shoulders but the solemnity she emitted, the aura she gave off. When meeting face to face it created a strange tension in him.

Her silver hair had a calm and mellow atmosphere. A bob, no, a short-bob hairstyle. Her style might be slightly thin but her posture was exceptionally good. A proper and worthy of respect girl.

(A career woman gives off this kind of feeling maybe)

Without stopping her, Tomoki thought of this.

“I am glad. Then Hero-dono. Since we can’t speak at such a place, will you please follow me?”

More than calling it mild, it was more like a cool smile that came from the girl, and just like that, pressed by her, they left the room.

At this moment, even though it was the first time she met him, the girl didn’t ask for his name because she had a reason.

The empire had given up on the divine protection of the Goddess because their plan was now to move aside the demon race with their own efforts. The upper stratums had lost a lot of faith in the Goddess. Above all, the girl that was dealing with the hero had a strong inclination to that.

For other countries, the hero might be a messiah, or more like, a hero material that they themselves would produce.

The strongest weapon called hero.

It wasn’t something that would create respect. The Gritonia that the hero has descended upon considered him a weapon.

The hero that was being led and taking interest in the people he was meeting, wouldn’t even be able to think about that possibility though.

At least for him, he was at a more severe place than that of the Limia hero. Though he is in a better situation than the boy that was thrown out into the wasteland.

~ Princess ~

The hero came. To calm my heart, I decided to take a walk after separating with him and I suddenly stop my feet.

The praying space.

An inorganic and cold stone floor, at the center an altar.

I hated this room. Because it’s a pointless place.

Goddess, the God that everyone believes and worships in this world. The loved hyumans that had superb beauty and seeds that stood at the summit, she was the existence that ‘was’ providing us divine protection and blessings.

However, in these 10 years, not a single prayer had reached. Nor help nor blessings were coming. In the world that you could obtain power by polishing your beauty, this absolute law, without previous notice, collapsed.

But it must be some kind of joke.

Suddenly, our empire’s priest and for some reason I was also given an oracle.

Being completely trampled by the demon race, the one that had the most faith in the Goddess at the moment, Elision, had been ruined.

In that grim situation we were barely able to make a defensive line with Limia to intercept the invasion of the demon race. Is the Goddess really an existence that we can believe in? In a thing that we have no knowledge of its nature, isn’t it something we shouldn’t be dependent on?

For my doubts to expand was extremely natural. If I said this out loud they would call me a heretic or a pagan or some other stupid words but I still restraint myself.

To be saying ‘I will give you a hero, attack the demon race’ at this point in time. Don’t make me laugh. The one called hero-sama that came out of the altar that was on the verge of being scrapped was also a stupid being.

I confirmed that the being was truly the hero that the oracle told about.

Gritonia, for the sake of fighting against the demon race without the divine protection of the Goddess, had done numerous experiments. The strengthening of human body, transplanting of excelling combat techniques, tools that had the power of black magic and the fusion of hyumans.

Any of these were not things that could be praised. With no way of glossing it over, it was a very inhumane thing. But what about it? It’s for the sake of defeating the demon race. If you have some objections about it, then show us that you are able to do something humane that will repel the demon race, is what I would yell at them.

But, comparing the masterpieces that those guys created, the hero was out of that group.

A body with a power that strengthening cannot reach, maryoku on the same level as high-ranked demons, at least ‘every’ black magic tool equipment that the empire possessed was reasonable.

A body that hadn’t been tampered in any way to have such a stupid result.

I, who had been showing him the way, saw every result with my own eyes.

A short-lived looking delicate man. That is the empire’s hero.

In his eye there seemed to be a not so good skill in it. The researchers said that it was a kind of demonic eye but for now I made it so we had some resistance to it beforehand. Only for the royalty though.

That he is a delicate man, that he has demonic eyes, furthermore, the arrogance of the strong that could be read from his tone. Also the rude look he gave to my knights. And his strangely merry atmosphere that seemed as if he were a kid that has come to a festival.

All of these were things I didn’t like. Especially that he was dispatched by that Goddess.

But.

Fine.

If you say that you are a hero, the empire will make you the strongest one of all. If you want to we can give you gold and even rank, women or men, whatever you wish will be granted… If with that we will be able to destroy the demon race.

No. The treasures of any country, this empire, my own body, my closest friends, I will give them to you… if with that I will be able to take the enemy of mother. Those pitiful women that believed until the very end and did those foolish prayers and were ignored by the Goddess.

Tomoki, that’s right, Tomoki Iwahashi. Rejoice. You will carve your name in history as a hero. And then make me rejoice, color the icy fields with the blood of the demons.

Oh Goddess, the one that plays with us on a whim. The toy that you have provided us, I will show you how we use it to its best.

With my emperor’s blood at stake, I will certainly.

      1. Yeah… The vibes from the Sora no Otoshimono Tomoki are of the harmless pervert type, lacking a truly malicious bone in his body. This Tomoki is setting off red flags alllllll over the place, and the goddess only made them worse giving him the demonic eye.

    1. SPOILER!!!

      Let me put it this way. With the exception of the princess, he has a brainwashed Harem and one of them will soon give birth to his child

      1. (wut do u mean with the exception of the princess….???!!! )

        she said she would give him her body and even the body of her friends…did she back off??

        and the brainwashed harem are they her the so-called friends????

      2. midoyashii the princess already said in this chapter that they give some kind of protection to royalty, so not brainwashed.
        And looking at her character, she probably shoved the dumb ones that believe the Godness(LOL) on him, but if he wants her, she’ll probably concede.

        Well I like her

      3. No, I think the princess is already brainwashed, she is only in denial. His ability is to make those who look in his eyes his slaves and this girl ha an already made a declaration that she would be his slave while denying being brainwashed. Truly a fearsome power I wonder if it works on mio and tomoe.

        1. What’s the point of replying to a post that’s over 1 year old?

          By the way, all those points you mentioned have already been answered in the currently translated chapters.

          Rather than wasting your time replying to old posts, hurry and catch up so you can speculate with the rest of us about current chapters. 😀

  1. Thanks for the chapter!

    Demonic Eyes that can enslave others, huh. I can see him trying to take one of Makoto’s acquaintance then get beaten to pulp.

    1. I can see two possibiliyShe’ll probably either not sense anything since he keeps is marykou suppressed with that cursed ring and be dumbfounded by the superhuman feats that he is able to perform, despite being ugly in the sight of the goddess, or Makoto will release his suppressed marykou and have her want him.

  2. Love the princess, compared to soon to be stalker prince :v , I wonder what will happens when makoto me her since them have deep hatred against that bug’s

  3. me, want mio and tomoe already 😀
    can’t wait for them to appear once more.. lol
    ah, also Thanks for the Chapters so far. Looking forward to the next Chapters~

  4. Welcome to the story, main antagonist. Let’s be honest this guy will definitely be the main villain of this story. I just can’t wait to see what experiments he will let them do to make him even stronger. Will only happen after his first quick defeat by the MC though.

  5. Meh the main MC is too op his base stats are too strong not too mention he isn’t pass level 1, he’s like a Disgaea character that’s gone through reincarnation at level 1000+.

  6. Hoh? So he’s immortal under the light of the moon, is he? Well there are things far worse than death that can happen. Also, I don’t think he will be able to take enslave Mio and Tomoe since they are already makoto’s slaves, they’re not even human to begin with.

    1. “However, this power will only be at nights and at the time when the moon is out”
      It only applies when there is a new moon(no moon in the sky). So no immortality when he is bathed in the light of the moon.
      I’m guessing it has something to do with Makoto and him having been given power by Tsukuyomi who is moon god.

      1. Wait… Does the moon is out in this sentence mean that the moon isn’t in the sky or is it when the moon is showing it self? If it’s the later, forget my previous comment!

          1. I think you’re right. It’s because of Tsukuyomi that I first thought it was the former.

  7. thanks for the chapter, by the way, I have no problem getting to the page, try to delete cookie data / sites and then go, that usually works

  8. Thanks 4 the chapter!

    That stupid bug only cares for outward beauty! Even I can see that this guy will misuse that demon eyes.

      1. I’m always up for a good bet. Let’s say, 6:30 mins. Cause Makoto will probably try to talk some sense into him before he gets fed up, and turns the brat into a grease stain.😂

  9. And finally read. Still, I have a bad feeling about this guy. A hikikomori with a grudge against the world, it’s so cliche for a villain. Still, both the hero girl from the last chapter and the princess of the empire could possibly end up in Makoto’s harem. Even if she wasn’t the girl I thought she was, I have a feeling she’s the one connected with him.

  10. Why do I get the feeling the Goddess conned him?

    I get the feeling he’s going to turn into a berserk unkillable werewolf when the moon is out.

  11. I see… The way these two heroes are introduced would most likely the opposite/possible enemy of Tomoe and Mio. Tomoe’s opposite would be Hibiki and Mio’s opposite would be Tomoki (seriously, this dude is not fit for that name).

    Also, MC leading to a path where I think most likely he will end up with would just end really messy. I sense a clusterf*** on the next following chapters.

    I’m also guessing that Hibiki will become a b**** that I can’t stand and Tomoki will be a douche that I will also can’t stand.

      1. gah… I don’t care how strong they are, they aren’t on the level of Makoto’s legendary monster slaves (please author don’t let ’em be). But when they do, I want some serious arse kicking from Makoto.

  12. That bug will be sorry, I am sure of that. There is a four-way power who is set now it is time to see what will happen. Makoto and the mist city are going to be a wild card. They can’t be besieged and the mist city is really mobile. The story as some points that the rise of the shield hero already showed us. The Limia hero might be able to be reformed and this new (useless) one might go the tangent and try to take over a country he is as bad as the demons. The bug don’t care for the psychology of those she kidnapped and that is going to cost her dearly… Oh yeah huys don’t forget that the big did broke some rules by taking the two people from earth and Tsukuyomi asked some of his godly friends to reign in this bug ! Let’s see what is going to happen lol.

    1. The goddess probably doesn’t care what they do, just so long as the kill all the demons and mamonos. After that, they could become tyrannical warlords for all she cares.

  13. i’m going to assume he’s going to be barely human by the time he meets the mc and they’ll have to fight
    (that’s the usual scenario in any case)

    thanks for the chapter

    1. That’s a cliche by now, but I’m suspecting it too. I tried to read a random later chapter of the original language using google translator for a later, but it was almost completely unreadable (which is why I’m thankful for the person who is doing all the work to translate this). It was where Tomoe met this douche and let me tell you, that guy’s future is what you would expect. He was a real piece of work when they met. I’m never trying that method again because how the page was translated, but I know this guy needs his ass kicked by Makoto.

  14. the dark hero can be killed because his immortality is not perfect , it absorbs great amount of his mana and during the mooon is visible , he becomes killable when his mana reaches zero, cant revive again

  15. (wut do u mean with the exception of the princess….???!!! )

    she said she would give him her body and even the body of her friends…did she back off??

    and the brainwashed harem are they her the so-called friends????

  16. this guy kind of reminds me of itsuki (hero of the bow) and tact (fake hero of the whip) from the rise of the hero of the shield (a guy with inferior complex is suddenly summoned to another world, to be a hero, have cheat like powers including the power to brainwash…..later he will probably start some shitty justice talk, make everyone one his “slaves of justice” while saying how he is heroic and righteous………. I reallly can’t see this guy as nothing but a disaster waiting to happen…..

  17. The main problem with his summoning is she cared more for his looks meeting her standards than his character being that of a hero.

    1. Yeah… it’s karma. The bug is almost going to regret her actions. Not fully as she doesn’t care as much about the feelings of her “perfect creations” as much as she cares about getting rid of all that’s “not beautiful”. So far, this is the character that needs killed off the most.

  18. I get the feeling that samurai obsessed shenron girl would defeat him easily with that illusion that shows them their desires until they starve. Unless she can’t use that any more due to the fog becoming a door to a separate world? Then their’s spider masochist woman who is immortal all the time (who needs a moon? lol). But lets not forget the protag who has a stronger goddess backing, better lineage, epic skill and plot armour.

    Though the moon person god woman did ask the protag to try and help those who have been brought to the world due to the stupid narcissistic superficial goddess I get the feeling they’ll be the type of people he would prefer not to help.

    anyway chapter seemed interesting, nice princess, but I want more MC 🙂

    wonder what the hero girl is like?

    1. I think the hero girl will be one who thinks more of “justice”. Think about it, she decided when she finally gave in to the bug’s request that she would have that kind of aura about her. She’ll be way different than the hikkimori who is pretty much going to brain wash a harem and flaunt his “immortality” and the MC who actually has more power than the other two along with permission to do whatever he wants but refuses to do so.

      If I were the MC, my way of getting the attention of the other two would be to cause some kind of an uproar that’s all collateral damage and as few casualties as possible to get the other two’s attention as a “hero” would be needed to deal with him. Like chose a different mask and remove the ring to get attention worthy of someone with the “hero” status. But this MC… is different.

  19. I think the hero girl features is like the typical student council president like:-
    1- Satsuki in kill la kill .
    2- Saeko(Busujima, Saeko) in high school of the dead, she also has a master LvL at Kendo
    3- Kurokami Medaka in medaka box

    BTW I like those type of women (lol)

  20. i hope that in the End the MC will crate peace on the world, by directing all the world hatred to the goddes xD I mean, everything was cause by that slacking unsympathetic bug. Mikotot should whoops her ass with this world residents behind him xD

  21. Geez, that Goddess isn’t worthy to be called as Goddess. Beautiful? FUck yea, she’s as beautiful as those fucking sluts in the red district, full of fucking make up and other powder shits.

  22. The hero girl said she doesn’t have true friends because how radiant she is, no one truly approaches her, and there is one that she is interested in ( i dunno wut kind ‘o interest) but I think that one is Makoto, Tsuki -sama said it that one of the heroes is an acquaintance of his …….. I wonder when they meet in that different world wut would heppen ???
    <3 FuFuFu

    1. I think we all want to see that. I just stopped by the site today just to see if there was an update. Still, can’t wait for that moment when the Hero Girl meets Makoto to see if that theory is correct.

  23. are makotos parents all hyuman or is it hyuman human pair?\
    and what the hells up with that douche bag hero who got some chumpchange power n evovled in to an arrogant pinnochio

  24. I really love that princess’s personality. Use that chuuni, unappreciative, self-serving, dillusioned bastard!
    Cheers.

  25. Okay I gotta be honest, this guy is actually a villain in the make. I mean, we could never put our faith on a bullying victim (in media I mean) who has got such cheat powers, even more if he CAN enslave anybody! Please no more hero chapters, they suck, boring as hell… back to Makoto at last!

    Thanks for the great work.

  26. This guy seems like the epitome of why I hate these “true” heroes that I just mentioned last chapter. (although sometimes not because they have something wrong with their personality, I mean seriously. that goddess looked like she was trying to create a maou, not a hero)

  27. “However, in these 10 years, not a single prayer had reached. Nor help nor blessings were coming. In the world that you could obtain power by polishing your beauty, this absolute law, without previous notice, collapsed.”

    Just wow. So you could get blessings and divine protection just being pretty? That goddess is seriouly fucked up in the head. I thought she made them pretty but it looks like she just give more power to the prettier ones so the ugly and average ones would just die out naturally (like some twisted natural selection).
    I hope Makoto will be able to whoop her ass in the end.

    I like that there are other people too among the humans who know how twisted that goddess is. I hope that princess will get along with Makoto in the future.

    Thanks for the chapters 🙂

  28. The fu*k is wrong with that bug??? She gives him Demon Eyes to enslave others!!? What kind of God is that? And to her own people!!

  29. I have to admit, this Empire is incredible. Though they are blinded by hatred, they are at least relying on themselves and see the Truth about the Goddess.

    I really hope the Author uses these characters wisely. Honestly I’m scared to keep reading because MC personality might not match the badass events.

  30. “Recently, in RPGs and even SRGs, he has been enjoying them by modding them first. He was warped.” lol this dude is noob

  31. In the other hand we have this hero, Tomoki, trash worthy of been the hero of that bug, I really hate him and wish for a seriously painful dead after much torture. About the bug, how she could be so idiot to send a hero to that type of contry? How she can be so stupid to not notice the hate of the empire?

    Honestly the empire and the princess are by far the best hyumans in the world, moral apart, they are the only with functional brains.
