Chapter 152: Participation of the devil ①

“This is not the time to be saying: ‘Tiring’, right?”

Mio placed her right hand to the front.

Without putting much power in it, she pictured a releasing image and fires it, not from her hand, but from her sleeve.

With her as the center, an invisible magic power expands at high speed.

If someone were able to see it, they would all say that it looked like several spider webs piled one over the other.

After Mio obtained her humanoid body, she learned this spell to cover for her weak point which was her perception ability.

“I am counting on you, Mio” (Tomoe)

“Yeah, look forward to it. Here I go-desu wa” (Mio)

Kaleneon.

The place where there was a small hyuman country in the past.

Right now, the people that obey Misumi Makoto, no, the representative of Kuzunoha Company, Raidou, were standing at this land.

Tomoe and Mio were at the lead, and the mamonos were lined up.

The Highland Orcs and Mist Lizards that lived in the wasteland.

With a total number that doesn’t even reach the hundreds, they were all completely armed, and when the moonlight shines sometimes, their equipment reflects the light.

As if acting in concert to Mio’s words, they raised their voices with an: “Oooh!!”

“Web radar and joint link huh. Truly a convenient spell-ja. I can grasp the surroundings as if I were touching it” (Tomoe)

Tomoe’s words sounded satisfied.

It was at the moment Mio linked the perception area with the others.

Its range is around 20 km.

Thinking about the area of this time’s plan, this range was plenty enough.

In essence, her perception area is actually wider, but it seems she judged that it was pointless to link all that area.

She linked all the area with Tomoe, but she limited the area the Orcs and Mist Lizards received to the space of the strategy.

Tomoe said it was like a radar, and it is quite the accurate depiction.

Right now in the units that have come here from Asora, every one of them has a radar manifesting inside their heads.

They still haven’t made contact, and yet, they completely knew how many enemies there were in the location, and just how their forces were distributed.

“Well then, this is a night raid. I wonder how much they will struggle” (Mio)

“This time, a declaration of war is unnecessary. Because it has ‘already been done’ after all. In this occasion, Waka’s intentions will be achieved” (Tomoe)

“Yeah, I can’t hold back any longer. I will be heading out, excuse me” (Mio)

“Ah, Mio?! Can’t be helped huh. I totally feel the same way after all. You guys, I don’t know if I will be able to hold back tonight. Mio will be in charge of the Fortress’ inner part. In that case, I will go secure the gate of Asora. Don’t get close to us for a while” (Tomoe)

When Mio did one step forward, her figure disappears.

Tomoe confirms the place she is heading to and makes a smile. Then, she turns towards the units.

To the words and expression filled with fighting spirit that can’t normally be seen in Tomoe, the Orcs and Lizards silently nod.

While showing an unconcealable fire in their eyes.

“Everyone must be feeling the same. Highland Orcs and Mist Lizards, rampage to your heart’s content. It is okay to not pursue the ones escaping. You understand, right? In context, this a war between Kaleneon and the demon race-ja” (Tomoe)

Cutting her words, Tomoe inhales.

Thrusting her unsheathed katana to the sky, she gathers everyone’s will.

“A war dedicated to Waka-ja! Everyone that opposes! Completely! Trample them down!!” (Tomoe)

As soon as she finishes her speech, Tomoe kicks the ground, and in the moment she reaches mid-air, she was enveloped by mist and disappeared.

Immediately following that, a war cry resonated in the whole region.

With excess vigor, a blaze of many colors shine in the sky.

This is the deed of the Mist Lizards.

This was the beginning of the war, no, of the genocide.

With a force that can’t be called a big army at all, they shouted a thunderous roar that made the ground tremble as they march.

Their aim is a part of a town that has been repaired and utilized as a fortress. The stronghold that pertains Kaleneon.

From what Tomoe investigated, there are around two thousand demons stationed in that place.

They are not tempered enough to be in the frontlines, but as an army, they are a force in a level plenty enough to stand in battle.

They were distracted by Mio who had already begun rampaging, but when they noticed the group of mixed mamonos, with a reaction slightly slower than usual, they began preparing.

At nigh time the gate was already closed, and they apply a defensive enhance to it. Immediately after, the archer and magician units position themselves at the outer walls and grasp the position of the enemy.

They commence their attack on them.

Their moves were not bad.

If taking into consideration that Mio is rampaging within, it can be considered a reaction speed worthy of praise.

However…

Their enemy was too much.

What they are currently facing are crazy fellows that have been living in the world’s border as if it were only natural, moreover, they have been trained by a Supreme Dragon, the Black Calamity Spider, and also demi-humans. Of course, the defense unit has no way of knowing this.

They in itself are formidable enemies, and yet, right now their morale is at their climax.

It isn’t something they can deal with.

Actually, if they were to teleport with the help of Tomoe or Mio, they would have been able to fight from the inside as well.

But the Orcs and Lizards wished to fight right from the front.

Everything was for the sake of showing their power to this distant land, about the power of their Lord.

For them, Kaleneon is an offering.

The arrows and spells that were fired towards them were all thwarted.

Not even a rock could reach.

–Something is wrong.

By the time the defense unit noticed the strangeness of the situation, it was already too late.

The attackers moved.

“GO!!”

“Ooooh!”

A large-builded Orc roars with a giant mace in hand.

Being ordered by the delicate-looking magician female orc, the Giant Orc kicks the ground.

That body radiated a red luminescence, and as if being pushed forward, he soared the sky.

The one who valiantly ordered this, was Ema.

She was currently showing the face of a warrior, something that no one would be able to imagine from the girl that normally does deskwork.

Applying a specially dense enhancing magic to the warrior that plunged in, she again blocks the attacks from the outer walls.

“How is the fortification of the defensive wall?!”

“Sufficient! After placing another layer, we will soon be able to shift to defense”

“Good. First we will begin by crushing those Orcs!”

The charge of an Orc that was in the units.

Understanding the reason why he was trying to plunge onto the gate, the demons immediately react.

“Ooooh!! Like hell they will stop me!!”

Drawing a parabola, the Highland Orc suddenly draws closer to the gate.

Holding the mace that looks giant even when in the hands of the big-builded orc, he brandishes it.

Without showing any signs of breaking his stance, he smashes that one attack onto the gates.

A specially loud sound, as if a lightning fell, resounded in the Fortress at night.

In the smoke that ascends, a big shadow rises.

Smoke was rising from the Orc’s body as well.

The solid gate protecting the fortress was already turned into a miserable wreckage.

They most likely thought that it would be best to attack the Orc while his vision was still not clear. Several shadows commence their attack.

It seems several lights from inside the fortress served as illumination.

The result was a tragedy.

The mace was quickly swung horizontally.

All the shadows were thrown to the opposite direction with good momentum.

“Don’t underestimate the pigs of the wasteland. Don’t lower your guard, do your best. There are plenty behind me that are a lot stronger than me! If you guys are weak, we can’t show our best you know!”

“On my lead!!”

“Don’t let them have their way! To let this no-names do any further than this–!!”

“They are just Orcs and Lizardmen. On top of that, there’s not even a hundred of them!!”

The troops of Asora flood into the fortress.

It doesn’t even reach the hundreds.

That’s exactly right.

Normally, Orcs and Lizardmen are not that much of a high standing among the demon race army.

That’s exactly right.

In the lands that are under the rule of the demon race, no one would imagine that strong troops originating from the wasteland would be attacking them.

Therefore…

Their utmost resistance was being trampled down.

The morale that the people of Asora emit hasn’t shown any signs of weakening.

The two thousand soldiers protecting the fortress were being challenged by an enemy of less than a hundred, moreover, they are dispersed.

Because of Mio’s favour, the Lizardmen that are able to accurately grasp the enemy’s’ position and situation, divided in groups of 3, which is the smallest configuration they have, and were tearing down their foes.

It was nothing other than reckless.

If Makoto were to give an impression of this fight, it would be that this is a battle that disregards strategy.

It’s a difference in number of troops that normally wouldn’t even be able to break down the gate.

But even so…

The fortress’ gate was opened, and the warrior that opened it, taunted the two thousand that were there.

All the troops of Asora understood the situation of the battle.

They knew that Mio had already arrived at a place that has a big reaction, and Tomoe is heading to her target location at an incredible speed.

Every single one of them led the way and placed strength in their fists.

For the demon race, this nightmare-like fight had just begun.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

“Ara, I am sorry for Tomoe-san but, it seems I drew a winner-desu wa” (Mio)

“… If I asked who are you, woman, would you answer?”

“Of course. My name is Mio. And you?” (Mio)

“… I am one of the soldiers under the rule of Demon Lord-sama. Is there any need to know more?”

“If I don’t know your name, I won’t be able to report who I did what to. It would be troublesome” (Mio)

Mio pleasantly laughs while responding the man.

In the inside of the fortress, at a space where it was most likely used as a big meeting room.

At this place, she met what the bunch at this place would call: ‘the strongest amongst them’.

His upper half is close to that of a hyuman, but his lower half is that of a serpent.

He had presence, and power can he sensed from him as well.

Wanting to defeat the biggest game to report to her master Makoto, in Mio’s eyes he was the most suitable game.

“This one’s name is Reft. A variant dragon, Mildi Dragon Reft”

“Ara, a mutation of the dragon race. How rare. I thought you were a snake” (Mio)

“You said your name was Mio, right? Without even a declaration of war, just what in the world are you bastards? A force that commands Orcs and Lizards. I can’t think of it as a hyuman army”

“Ufufufu” (Mio)

Mio was truly in a good mood.

So happy, so happy, so ever happy.

Even when she understands that she is in the battlefield, she can’t stop her face from smiling widely.

“So you don’t even intend to answer huh. Sorry but, that I was here was unlucky of you guys. I will have to crush you—”

“No, I will offer you the answer-desu wa” (Mio)

“?!!”

“We have already finished declaring war. No, you guys were the ones who declared war upon us, you know?” (Mio)

“… What?”

“We are Kaleneon. The ones that should leave this country are you demon race-desu wa” (Mio)

“Kale-neon, you say? The hyuman country that was here before? Are you saying you guys are an army from a ruined country?”

“No. Kaleneon has not fallen. It has always been here” (Mio)

“… Are you crazy?”

Reft made a dubious face at Mio’s entranced way of talking.

From his point of view it was natural, since Mio was acting as if she were under the effects of a drug.

“Fufufu. ‘That’ will become the truth, from now on. By our hands” (Mio)

Mio continued without changing her behavior and way of speaking.

Even if it wasn’t Reft, anyone would have felt madness from it.

“All the land until Stella Fort, is land under our control. This Kaleneon is also one of the lands the demon race possesses! I am not free enough to accompany you in your nonsense!”

“… That’s why it is convenient-desu yo. Hyumans won’t believe much of what you guys say after all. Even if one obscure country wasn’t destroyed… no one would be able to deny it. If the country in itself was truly there, that is” (Mio)

“Wh-at?”

“–Is what she said. Honestly, I don’t understand well myself. I actually don’t care about those kind of matters. I will deal with you, and offer this land to Waka-sama. That is the only most important thing. No matter if this place was Kaleneon, or a place that continued being Kaleneon; I don’t care whichever one it is-desu wa” (Mio)

“You… you guys, just what are you…”

‘Let’s begin’, is what Mio says as she holds her folding fan and points it at Reft.

“It seems like I can’t simply kill you. Because I still have things I have to ask you”

Reft turns his giant spear at Mio.

His half-hyuman, half-snake body twists.

“If you are able to win against me, do as you wish. Ufufu, the gate has been broken huh. It seems like they are also doing their best to offer victory to Waka-sama. Of course, today, in this very day, there’s not a single one in our forces that are unable to do that though” (Mio)

“This pressure is… not something a simple lunatic group is able to exude. To think that I would have to do this kind of battle before meeting the hero”

The variant dragon, Reft.

One of the demon generals that was at this fortress by chance.

An upper echelon of the demon race.

While receiving the blood thirst with her body, Mio narrowed her eyes and laughed.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

“I see”

Outskirts of the imperial capital.

The woman that had obtained several amounts of data, crumpled that paper into a ball and threw it onto the table.

Blue skin and no horn.

Wearing a tight suit, she has an exaggerated coat on her shoulders.

One of the demon generals, Rona.

Even if she is in the outskirts, she is still inside the imperial capital.

The exaggerated coat is something that is only provided to demons in the upper echelons.

To wear that in the capital of hyumans is pretty dangerous.

Even so, Rona paid it no mind, and with no impatience, she stayed sitting in the room.

“Good work. I have no right to say this but you know, Rona, you are pretty daring”

“Sofia. I don’t mind you rampaging as you wish you know? With your power, you should be able to stir trouble even without encountering the hero after all. Also, you easily slaughtered the so called treasured corps of the Empire, right? Keep going that way” (Rona)

Rona glances at Sofia and the boy that entered the room along with her, and then turns her eyes towards her documents again.

“They showed no resistance. I came to hear Rona’s: ‘I see’. I was interested in the reason for this weird dispersed attack which I don’t know if you even have the intention to attack or not” (Sofia)

“Isn’t there plenty enough casualties appearing from the Empire’s army? We have sufficient intent to attack. Don’t worry about it. Also, Sofia, and Lancer as well. Isn’t it bad to show yourselves in the imperial capital? The unit here is being pushed back, so I would be grateful if you provided backing though” (Rona)

“At the beginning that’s how we did it. Using a unit that seemed to be close to wipe out as bait, we get them in a pincer attack and crush them. I thought this was that kind of strategy. But that’s not it, right? Rona has thrown away quite the amount of units before. We are not subordinates but collaborators, so I would like you to share information you know~” (Sofia)

“… Fuh~ The strategy huh. Well, for the time being, you two are under my care. If you are collaborators, cooperate in making the strategy proceed smoothly” (Rona)

“So she says, Mitsurugi” (Sofia)

“Words that chip away my motivation. To hear those kind of words from the person in charge itself makes it even more so” (Lancer)

The faces of Sofia and Lancer were showing clear dissatisfaction as they look at Rona.

The female gestures and that playful behavior Rona used when she was confronting Makoto, were nowhere to be found.

With cold eyes and a strict expression, she organized the information that came up and was looking at the situation of the war, but she temporarily stopped reading the documents.

Maintaining her face as a commander, she looks at the two collaborators.

“The Empire’s hero has a two-sided nature. At times he will become aggressive, and at others he will show caution. And those two sides are switching no matter what type of plan we use. I thought that it would be best to understand the reason of this, since I felt that this would prove beneficial later on. So I have been concentrating the investigation mainly on this point. Other than that, I wanted to know the strength of the cherished force the Empire was raising. In that point, you two easily brought them out and, even if it was only one corp, you wiped them out. You were a great help. Thanks to you both, I think I will be able to make some countermeasures. How is that, is this enough? Let me tell you this, you owe me one with this, okay?” (Rona)

“I see~. Open as many drawers from the Empire as possible, is what you are trying to say. Hmph, well well. That corp wasn’t a big deal anyways. Even if it wasn’t me, things would have managed somehow. They were unbalanced and left a lot of openings after all” (Sofia)

“I was worried that the adventurer system would interfere, but there were no problems. Now that I fish out and see, this is indeed one of the special traits of a hero. It may have been troublesome if this were to reach the ears of the Kingdom, but fortunately, they hold no proof. At that side Io is going at it seriously, so they are done for anyways” (Rona)

“It seems that girl’s party has broken free of the level restrain. It was eerie to see high leveled soldiers being mass produced, but even if their levels are high~” (Sofia)

“Rona, if you say we owe you, you should talk about that two-sided nature of the hero you speak of, right? Don’t worry, I have a proper collateral prepared already” (Lancer)

“… How unpleasant” (Rona)

Rona looks at the boy with heartfelt unpleasantness.

Both of them don’t even differentiate the things that can and can’t be said.

It’s not that they pursue without knowing. They pursue while knowing.

An extraordinarily bad personality there.

It is also because Rona doesn’t trust them at all.

Even if she has to admit their skills, she can’t trust her back to them.

As long as she can’t be sure that their interests match, she didn’t want to make them participate in important strategies, is how she truly felt.

That’s why, instead of having them participate in the Limia capital plan, she had both of them act at the Empire where Rona herself can keep a check in their actions.

“The Empire’s hero, Iwahashi Tomoki, is a hero that is equipped with anti-army equipment. Maneuverability of a flying dragon, defensive power of a royal guard, a golem-user alchemist; the type that uses diversions and boosts in several aspects to avoid the opponent from drawing closer. It may look like force-pushing, but he actually thinks relatively well” (Rona)

“I don’t care about such a regular assessment though” (Lancer)

“… Got it. What we understood from this time’s strategy was the peculiarity of this switch of his. He is probably changing his fighting style depending if it’s day or night, in a more specific way, the lunar phase. Probably the time of the moon. Just in the nights, he gains some sort of strong healing power, is what I think” (Rona)

“A healing power that only activates at night?” (Lancer)

“Yeah, I have heard of no such thing though. I don’t think there’s a mistake there. That’s why, if we are going to corner him, it would be best if it were at noon. I think it would be best to continue the strategy by avoiding the nights or letting them pass” (Rona)

“… In other words, he is stronger at night, right?” (Sofia)

“That’s the conclusion, yeah. It is clear that he is using high powered skills and making bolder moves mostly at night. Lancer, what is the collateral?” (Rona)

“Oh, right. Princess Lily is returning. Accurately speaking, she has already begun giving orders from several towns away of the town of Robin she was in” (Lancer)

“?!! Are you speaking the truth?!” (Rona)

“Of course. This is certain” (Lancer)

“… Tch, so she is already moving. It depends on what happened to Rotsgard though. If that woman has returned, it is unnecessary to stay here for long. We have already achieved our objective anyways. After this, it would be enough to just go from the back huh. A step faster towards Stella” (Rona)

Nervousness appeared in Rona’s face.

It was information that changed the situation of the war greatly.

It was definitely information that she couldn’t speak of even if negotiated.

‘As I thought, I can’t trust these two’, is what Rona reaffirmed.

Just like what the saying says ‘Can’t see the forest for the trees’, Rona was giving orders inside the capital itself.

She swiftly burned the documents and headed to the entrance of the room.

“… What are both of you doing? We are returning” (Rona)

“Fufu, I have received good information. With this, the return is just not enough right, Mitsurugi?” (Sofia)

“Sofia, people like you are just…” (Lancer)

Rona tilts her head at both Sofia and Lancer who she thought would be accompanying her, but were not showing signs of moving.

“Rona, I will give you a bit of service. You should cross the river and go to the safe sphere. I will… go play with the hero for a bit” (Sofia)

“?! Lady, were you listening to what I said?! At nights we don’t know his strength accurately, you know?! Even if we seal his powers with the ring, he is currently only using weapons that are suited for him, so it doesn’t have much effect. In the past we would have been able to crush him with just this much, but in the current state…” (Rona)

“I will leave the thought transmission open, so shut up. If you go as far as saying all this, I won’t be able to stop anymore. I wonder if every person that has connections with the Goddess ends up like ‘that person’. I am looking forward to it” (Sofia)

Sofia was emitting a blood thirst from her whole body which she wasn’t even trying to hide.

In the latter half, she muttered as if talking to herself and felt like it wasn’t for anyone to hear.

Just who is ‘that person’?

There’s only one other person that knows this.

After Lancer makes a small sigh, he disappears along with Sofia.

“Hey, wait— Just how difficult they are to deal with! But if Princess Lily is returning, staying here would be dangerous. No choice but to return huh. If she were to just die off, the variables would decrease” (Rona)

Without chasing after the two, Rona leaves the building.

She is not disguising herself. She was in her natural demon form.

She must have judged that it was unnecessary to do so.

Without turning back, she blows up the building that was there and activates the previously set-up teleportal, escaping to the outsides of the capital.

      1. If you’re refering to that metter of reserving the first place for a certain glutonous bird… I don’t even remember how many times spoiler-san had said that he won’t do it again. Or are you refering to something else?

      1. Plz don’t do that, Reigo-chan. No matter how much I like you, disonest tsunderes are simply irritating. And Yanderes deserve a “love” fist in their faces.

    1. As the man who lost part of his sanity trying to read it through the incoherent clumps of text that Google Translate gives, take it from me that you will not be disappointed.

      1. I know your pain try reading *gun-ota rehost* raw and after 100 chapters of Google Translated text it made my way of specking and reading odd and know im not cheting i just have other things to fill my time till the next chapter comes out. *full name ->Gun-Ota ga Mahou Sekai ni Tensei shitara, Gendai Heiki de Guntai Harem wo Tsukucchaimashita!?<-*

  1. Spoiler-san will just leave a fresh comment here.

    Spoiler-san has already spoiled that this would happen in a past chapter. Kaleneon was the country they gifted to Makoto. Trust Spoiler-san, there will be some things that Makoto does with his gift sometime in the future. Including a stereotypical mandatory chapter. However, none of that happens for a long time. As for when Makoto meets the Heroes, Spoiler-san wants to tell you but he cannot due to a higher power. However, Spoiler-san doesn’t even have to tell you what happens to Trashmoki next chapter, Spoiler-san knows that you all know what pathetic Hero + nighttime immortality + psycho girl with supreme dragon equals. It’s going to be bliss.

    As for the old rivalry that Spoiler-san mentioned, Spoiler-san knows that you know the history between General Io and Hibiki. So yeah, there’s going to be a fight before a 90’s kid’s show reference. But in what order it all happens, Spoiler-san cannot tell you as it’s too big of a spoiler. So Spoiler-san is just going to sit it out as Truck-kun equals more hospital bills.

    1. Umm, spoiler san told us already when the first meetings between Makoto and the hero’s will be. Maybe Spoiler-san should get hit less by Truck-sama so that he remembers his own posts. 😉

    2. Argh damn! why does an asshole supposed to die!! they always makes a spice in a story specially the readers hatred on him if you ask me someone who is goody two-shoes idealist should die first compare to an asshole that should receive a direct punishment on Makoto

      1. the fight could happen at night while he is immortal. id rather see him get beat into a bloody pulp continuasly then strait up die

    3. So the old rivalry you were talking about was the one between the Hibiki and Io and… damit, I was hoping it to be Makoto and Sophia. Well, I’ll content with what will hapen with trashmoki, I can see it already (ง°▼°)ง. And when will Rona know about what is hapening at Kalenoleon and what hepened in Rostwards? When will Makoto appear again? (I’m assuming that next chapter will be about trashmoki, and the next one about Hibiki) There are so many questions. I need more spoilers, please tell me. Dont worry, I’ll pay the hospital bill (〜 ̄▽ ̄)〜.

      1. You’re forgetting about the higher power not allowing me to give too many spoilers 😛 Still, it won’t be too long before we have Makoto back. I’ll give a huge Spoiler now, she finds out about when he meets the Demon King. It’s not that big of a spoiler, we all know that Makoto has to meet him sooner or later.

      2. i think it be a hell of fun since rona its retreating to stella forstress that will be obviosly be desntegrated by makoto before she reach it. it be so fun if she goes there and ask her soldiers why they havent reached stella yet HAHA

    4. pathetic Hero + nighttime immortality + psycho girl with supreme dragon = …
      I think we will see the big difference between immortality (can’t die) and invincibility (can’t lose).
      Poor Trashmoki.

      1. You will see when the time comes. And that’s not the only type, there’s at least four types that are in Light novels, Web Novels, manga and anime, so try to guess which one. Not right now though, Spoiler-san is only around for the HYPE!

    5. Spoiler-San-Sensei! Help, I have a query!
      I was re-reading through chapter 62 when Tomoe dropped a bomb on my thought-train. She mentions that only in an equivalent relationship Pact do the individuals share their abilities. Sophia and Lancer kept referring to each other as partners, and she was quite definitely making use of Lancers powers during the fight, even after losing the sword made from his body. Could that be true? Is it the case?
      Please, inquiring minds want to know!

  2. I hope the Author doesn’t waste a chapter with the fight between Sofia+Lancer vs Trashmoki&Co. would most likely be a rather regrettable read. ~.~ No one wants to read about Trashmoki, except maybe a “System Message” that informs me of his death. 😀

    1. Honestly, I would prefer us cutting to Kaleneon’s side, then to the hyuman leaders, then Lima Hero’s defense, then to Rona, then to Kaleneon again.
      After that we could finish it off with Makoto’s side and a tiiiny footnote with Sophia running away going “Well that was disappointing”.

  3. I was looking forward to see the devil
    after i read unitl the end of the chapter
    i didn’t notice the ‘1’ from the title of the chapter
    I wanna see more rampage!!!

    thanks for the chapter

  4. By the way, did the Wasteland Orc still remember about how the Demon-race tricked them to sacrificing their daughter to the Fake Shin(Tomoe) ? i hope they remember since this can also act as their Revenge to the demon trickery
    (Just my own mind if one of the Wasteland Orc think)
    Come my brethren
    Let us smash these Demons for their trickery and our sacrificed daughter
    Let us bath them in their blood and trampled on their corpsed
    Let them know our suffering until our Lord Waka-sama safe us from that trickery and bless us with a bountiful land that we dont need to fight anymore
    For the Honour of our Race
    For the Honour of our Lord
    For the Glory of Asora
    We will obtain this land as our Offering of Gift to Makoto-sama

    1. A small point: “Lord Waka-sama” is like saying ‘lord young master’, or Princess Hime-sama (Princess princess), or naan bread (which is like saying baguette bread).

    1. The big followers splitting up to rampage independently because their master finally unhooked their leashes? Sweet.
      Mio fighting a demon general just to present her victory to Makoto like a proud cat does with a pigeon? I’m cheering.
      A cannonball mace strike from an Orc? Wait, WHAT?
      An army of less than 5% of the enemy’s forces hardened by the harsh life in the wastelands, then further polished to perfection by the world’s strongest? GO GO LET’S KILL THESE FOOLS!
      And to top it all off, they have the balls to attack the front gate in a roaring assault instead of teleporting inside, forgoing all strategy against those numbers…all just to acquire an acceptable offering for their beloved benefactor? HELL FUCKING YEAH!

      Even so I have to admit, I couldn’t help giggling when I imagined Ema with a war face.

      1. well if you stop and remember from a past chapter they discoverer that just living in Asora increase there stats by leaps and bound’s and that not including the training in short when you move to Asora there is a 100% guaranty that over time you become OP in your race over all specks…. i wonder how strong a hero will become in Asora?

      2. yep, totally not a WAAAHG, yes definitely not a campain able to obliterate a planet in a frontal asault.
        They are definetely not ORKS.

  5. It’s strange. In other WN/LN, there are plenty of scenes that are much more meaningful and grand. Why is it that this story has me more hyped than I’ve been in a long time? Is it the payoff after loads of careful buildup? Weeeell, I guess it could also just be me being a bigger fan. 😀

    Heeeh. So Lily was using the drug to prepare a secret weapon for the empire? It ended up pretty much as useless as Hoplace vs Class Raidou though.

    Finally….Well, poor Sophia is about to be disappointed if she’s going into a Tomoki fight expecting a Devil. Because that’s Waka Quality~

    1. Error Fix:
      “To let this no-names do any further than this–!!”
      this -> these

      “I will deal with you, and offer this land to Waka-sama. That is the only most important thing. ”
      only most important -> only important (or) most important

      “It’s a difference in number of troops that normally wouldn’t even be able to break down the gate.”
      Uh…I’m not quite sure what this sentence was originally trying to say, but it made me reread it a few times. Maybe something like this?

      normally wouldn’t -> normally meant they wouldn’t
      or
      It’s a difference in number of troops that normally -> The difference in number of troops normally

    2. fact is the hype is slowly being built up after the war at the stella fort just for this arc . the author purposely created a story where the readers would desire/want Makoto to show off his grand army to the world who is belittling him

  6. I need a mio and a tomoe to keep my life straight.
    Trashmoki is going to get trampled next? He can’t even fight tomoe, now there’s a dragon and a dragon slayer. Omg, steroid doping hero is going to OD after this.

  7. Hello can anyone tell me or ljnk me about what chapter is this in raw web novel

    I want to read its with google translate but i just cant find its at all T T

    damn i just wanna read about how awesome this arc gnna be

  8. Finally!!!!!! To bad that bitch isn’t in kalneon, seriously want to see her despair face for touching”reverse scale” also to bad that bitch not know what happened in rostgard
    Oh well trashmoki will become trash in next moment but is his evil eyes able to affect Sophia ?

    1. SOON! YES SOON! he will crosspath with Makoto and would be surprised that all of the years of their hardwork in creating a perfect invasion plan would be thwarted by a single unknown factor that they would never expect

  9. i neeed moar!!! omg im loving this development cant wait for 3 days!! ty for all your hardwork,

  10. Sayonara, Snake-man-san.

    Perhaps you might possibly be able to escape? Best be quick on your feet (or lack thereof), for who knows what mighty jaws and what black hunger awaits thee?

    1. Nope add to it Shiki + Makoto coming after Trashmoki’s death = the born of the new true supreme dragon slayer(it’s Shiki who killed Lancer btw because the more Makoto increase his magical power the more his follower becomes stronger via contract and Shiki is currently on the level of Supreme dragon already)

  11. Thanks for the translation!

    Ugh, although Trashmoki is looking to get wrecked, its by my second most despised characters. Its those two, psycho/dragon that I want Makoto to flatten, even moreso than the bug.

  12. oh hell yeah!!! the start of the battle!! cant wait and i hope the release will be much earlier but ill read these many times so that time passes much faster and i hope it doesnt become my eargerness for the new chap.

    thank you for the chap release!

  13. Thanks for the chapter (●ω<). I want to read about the genoside that will begin in Kaleneon, thiswas a great chapter. I can't wait to see what will be of the useless trashmoki when Sophia finds him (ง°▼°)ง.

  14. Thanks for the chapter. This chapter is kind of a disappointment compared to last chapter.

    No Makoto.

    Mio and Tomoe clearing out disgustingly weak mobs of enemies.

    Surprisingly low amount of soldiers. (I thought the winged kin were in at least 200 in number. Granted I know not all are warriors/adults, but still….)

    I hope that ‘Reft’ fellow doesn’t become Makoto’s next subordinate. Based on the fact that Mio explicitly said, “I’m not going to kill you.” We can confirm he’s captured and going to show up soon in another chapter.

    I was hoping to see Rona’s reaction to the attacked fort. I’m sure they’ve got carrier pigeons to deliver messages and . The communications network must be slower than I thought.

    I think we’ve all predicted this moment that we’re about to see for our Tomoki. We all predicted if he were immortal at night, he’d be tortured till morning.

    I can’t tell what the goddess wants here. Will she send Makoto to save Tomoki right after Hibiki? He asked the Goddess “The Heroes (plural) protection?” unless Rei mistranslated or misspelled “Hero’s,” it means if something happens to our hero on the other side of the world, he (Makoto) would be breaking his deal.

    1. spoiler: Rona first thinks of joining the other Demon general to fight Makoto but hesitates after sending that general flying then she said before leaving ” I will retreat for now so meet the demon lord later ok?”

    2. The problem when translating Japanese is that the word Yuusha (which means hero) can refer to one or all of them. So I don’t know if she was referring to both or just Hibiki.

      1. I just double checked… yeah that makes more sense. The poor guy doesn’t know who he’s fighting and is going to attempt to capture mio.

    3. You missed a couple of things.

      Makoto only allowed the Orcs and Lizardmen to attack, he is uncomfortable with sending the Winged and Medusa into combat, doesn’t feel like they are that strong since they are such a bad matchup with him.

      The Lamia dude was the one saying that he was not going to kill Mio, thinking that he is much stronger and that he needs info about Mio and her forces and motives. There is no way that Mio would let an opponent live without a direct order to do so from Makoto. That should be clear after she went and wiped out Ilumgad.

      As Rei mentioned, it can be hard to tell plurals in Japanese. Adding tachi at the end can make something explicitly plural but its not needed for implied plural. However, the Goddess has promised to not teleport Makoto around again so he would end up at the battle that the Goddess wants him at defending the Hero that she thinks needs defending the most.

      1. I wonder if the Bug will keep her promise… I get the feeling that as soon as the hyumans are loosing another battle she will summon him with that high-handed attitude of hers.

  15. I know that I’m asking a dumb question, but do you guys consider Sofia beautiful (sexy, cute, etc.). If the answer is yes, then I believe Sofia might’ve screwed up big time with fighting Tomoki…..

    1. I think trash moki ability will not work to Sofia because too large level difference or assistance by her dragon. It is like trash moki ability not working to Tomoe.

    2. Sofia can probably be refered to as the “Man-Eater” type of beauty. Strong, rough, and boisterous. Able to roughhouse with the guys and take on one if she decides that she wants to be with him.

      Trashmoki always has his eyes active but I expect that they will mostly just annoy Sofia. Her personality is strong and her attitude completely clashs with the kind of personality and behavior his eyes try to enforce on someone. His eyes make people admire or look up to him but Sofia is the type that would go drinking and brawling with her companions after a battle/mission. She admires those with strength to overwhelm her but just wants to challenge them again and again to a fight, not fall in line as a follower. All of T-mokis followers are submissive or acting submissive (Lily) and I really can’t imagine Sofia acting that way.

      1. That maybe true about her personality and other things. However there’s still the room for doubt that I feel is still lingering. The way she’s actually looking for the fight despite the many warnings that Rona did and other kind of uncertainties also entrails that she’s not exactly cautious as she supposed to be. This is one of the times, that I hope I’m wrong. However, even though I want Tomoki to be beaten until submission, I don’t exactly see him being killed off either (because characters in these kinds of stories tends to stick around for a long time despite their stupidity).

    3. well i remember in a past chapter lilith stated that after Tomoki encounter with tomoe he develop something like a grudge on her to get back at her he started to train like crazy in order to beat tomoe so there is no telling how strong he has gotten.

  16. Thanks for the chapter~!

    Finally, the translations have reached this section…I’ve waited so long…and it was worth it…

    So the 2000+ demon souls will be offered to Makoto, wonder if he will evolve a little? I’m hoping the Kaleneon strike force leaves some survivors to tell of the living hell they went through to the rest of the Demon Army.

    And trashmoki’s gonna get a nice paddlin’ from Sofia & Lancer, wonder if Tomoe’s heading in that direction for a little vengeance for how the insane duo treated Makoto? Or maybe towards the Demon Lord’s place?

    I can’t wait~~~~

    1. one must build hipe so the epic battel will be more well epic…just hope they dont cock out and do a “one flight later” thing ware they skip the fight all together.

  17. Devil Army ~!! Roll Out!!

    save “Punch the Goddess” for later…. right now…. lets slap that Blue Skinned Hornless Bitch ~!!
    Go Devil ~!! show your mighty ~

  18. Leveling the ground in their wake, the orc army advanced into the forest.

    Trample them! Trample them! Trample them! Trample Them!

    While lifting their voices, with a glow in their eyes, the orc army advanced into the forest.
    There was not a single normal thought in their minds.
    Everything their eyes fell upon was food.
    They forever hungered, and only the desire to eat pushed them forward.

    Devour our comrades, and make their powers ours!
    Devour our enemies, and make their powers ours!

    And again they eat.
    Without any fear of death. Someday, their power will grow and surpass that of their king.
    Their king.
    The ultimate Human, Misumi Makoto.

    Their march continues.
    And now again the prey has appeared before them.

  19. Oh yeah! that’s a good chapter… let’s be bath in the blood of our enimies!!! XD

    Thanks for your time translating this great novel…

  20. this make me wonder if at some point the top brass of both human and demon sides will join are OP wood-be high school student murchent / lord?

    1. That’s exactly what happened, Makoto was trying to live in another world peacefully and everyone played him for a fool so he had to take part in the big game to defend himself.

    1. trashmoki’s eye’s effect is a gradual change, so she probably won’t be charmed to the extend of switching side to his with just one battle, but it might affect her resolve to kill him for sure

  21. I saw the title i thought it was makoto who would be rampaging but i was wrong…soooo wrong why must you leave us at a cliff hanging with our tabs and cells and computers pointing at the horizon! Well aside from that thanks and want moreeee,!M!!!

  22. Thank u always for ur great work…
    ^^…

    — Its range is around 20 km. —
    Dem, earth army lose in this aspect…
    XD…

    1 city fall to Makoto hand, another one awaiting…
    :3…

    A little typo :
    At nigh time the gate
    At night time the gate ???

  23. First of all…THERE IS WAY TO MANY COMMENTS!!!!!!!!!!!! I can´t read trhoug them all and comment or I will take a hole hour…Now that tha’s out of my sytem, thanks for the chapther as alway Regokai sensei, good chapther it started strong, even I wanted to drop everything at work and go offer Kaleneon to Waka, but the ending drainemed of energy althoug it sows great promises.

  24. Thanks for the chapter!
    Finally war huh? But somehow this chapter got me less hyped, I felt like I’m reading an anime description, exspecially since the author starts using a ‘global’ viewpoint. was it always that way ? or is the author less descriptive on purpose? Also the convo of rona,sofia and lancer gave me a goddamn headache. I get the gist of it but still..
    I wonder what rona’s reaction will be when she gets the news^^

  25. Thanks for the chapter ^_^

    These guys are in for quite the shock once communication from the back gets through. Hehehe. They’ve barely begun and one general is probably already out of commission.

  26. Ema got screen time!

    “It may look like force-pushing, but he actually thinks relatively well”
    Tomoki got praised! I think it’s the first time, now nobody can say he is worthless again

    A little sad that makoto wanted to make asora a peaceful country expending by commerce, but the residents are blood thirsty and only waited for makoto to wage a war…

    1. I think not all of the resident are bloodthirsty
      The wasteland orc mostly fight because they want to defend their land because in wasteland there’s hardly place that can grow crops and they cultivate the barren land with their own knowledge
      For the mist lizard they’re mostly warrior tribe and take great pride in their fighting ability since even one of them can 1v1 low dragon
      For the dwarf, they mostly focus on making the equipment of the resident like farming tool, etc but they also create weapon for the training session and base on request and i think they rarely go to the front line since they’re mostly blacksmith (i know they’re battle smith but i think they still focus on making equipment rather than go to the frontline unless the higher ups in asora summon them to the front line)
      For the arkes, they mostly do it because they’re consumed by the hunger until makoto supply them with magic power and they usually focus on making medicine and also arranging the books or anything with knowledge-based stuff for the resident
      For the Forest Oni i think they mostly do the fighting after Tomoe barrier were down but i think they can be considered kind of bloodthirst
      for the Winged-kin i dont really know their kind type but i think they also warrior tribe but i dont really know how their fighting since when they were mentioned in asora they mostly do recon of the area
      for the Gorgon, they mostly peaceful since they usually avoid conflict except when need to take the seed of men from other race to conceive child
      from that all i think not all of them are blood thirsty but still they have a high fighting power and will go to war when the higher ups of Asora (Makoto, tomoe, mio, shiki, komoe. Yes Komoe ! dont you dare to not included our precious Loli princess of Training in the hierarchy)
      call them for War

    2. It’s not bloodthirst that’s motivating them in this war though. It’s loyalty.

      Think about it. Makoto started off by saving the Highland Orcs three times with Ema: stopping sacrifices to Shen, and giving them a beautifully abundant home to live in that’s like heaven compared to the wasteland.

      For his followers, he brought excitement to Tomoes life after essentially a life of tedium, he brought Mio satisfaction after a lifetime of maddening hunger, and he represents the “Graunt” as a unique being that’s officially considered hyuman which Shiki has been searching for traces of all his life.
      The Arks were in the same situation as Mio and it’s thanks to Makoto they were freed from that as well. The Dwarfs are the best smiths in the world and Makoto is still constantly making them push their skills to the very limit. The Gorgons…well, that’s obvious.

      My point here is that ever since he invited them to Asora, Makoto has been everybody’s benefactor that’s changed their very way of life for the better. And as the ring explosion in Asora had proven to them, Makoto also treasures all his residents and cares for everyone’s well-being.

      The residents all want to return this favor and show their gratitude, but all they can offer are words because Makoto has frankly never truly needed anything. Anything he’s ever asked them to do(except maybe equipment) has been for the sake of everyone’s peaceful life in this garden world of life.
      So hell yeah they’re going to be excited for this invasion. Not because it’s an invasion, but because, to them, this is the first thing Makoto has truly wanted for himself and the first thing he’s requested of them.

  27. thanks for the chapter Rei sempai ! ^^

    could someone please send me a link to the raws ? (I need to read and know what’s going to happen afterwards x) even if I have to read a shitty MTL translation lol)

  28. I’m actually hoping Sofia ends up becoming that idiot hero’s play thing haha. Really don’t like her, and it would make all the more fun when Mio and Tomoe meet them.

    Anyway looking forward to the rest of this battle/war. Reigokai I hope the your battle in RL for free time is progressing favourably, judging by all the comments everyone else is also eager to read more asap.

    Well fine either way, chapters come when they come. Though I offer a little prayer that they come a little sooner 🙂

  29. because Ema had a surprise appearance (though short). Mio too.

    I guess the story is finally going somewhere, after those long excruciating previous chapters(though the last few were decent ones).

    Cheers for the hard work~

  30. The title is sooo misleading makoto isnt in this chapter at all. But the first half OMG. A legend gonna be born lol. And its not even 300. Oh yeah btw anyone remember wayyyyyy back before makoto got his rings and he ask mio and tomoe how did his power felt like to them and they say it was like a bunch of demon lords….. i wonder if it really is a bunch cuz if he ever meets the demon lord “it” is gonna faint lol

  31. A beautiful blitz from the Asorans, and what luck, a demon general is about to die. Another mark on Rona’s head on top of the eventual destruction of the forces sent to kill the heroes. It’s going to the point that the Maou will have no choice but to meet Makoto and beg for an armistice, Rona’s gamble in assuming “he’s just strong” to set the variants on attack has backfired and so many demons are about to die because of it XD

    And thanks for the update~

  32. after reading and remembering stuff about makoto, i’m speculating that hyumans beauty is not about only appearance but also magic power. from the info that bug and tsukuyomi gave indirectly, makoto is not a human but a hyuman, meanwhile it’s stated that all hyumans are beauties. this means that makoto shouldn’t be ugly but handsome since he’s a hyumans…

    imo why makoto ugly is because he never show how much his magic power to the masses after being thought as a demon lord?(or monster? i forgot) in earlier chapter but it never stated that he’s ugly back then, only terrifying.. well why i’m thinking like this is because of chapter 77, when makoto went all out by removing his “limiters” creating rumour about -a young aged person with ‘peerless’ beauty- called the devil (probably because of the unthinkable amount of mana that makoto terrifies the survivors so he got nicknamed as devil)

    it’s just my speculation though :d i’m doing this because it just comes on my mind after re-read some chapters while waiting the action of makoto soon, hope he wrecks both of hyumans and demons fairly xD

    1. The rumors about the Devil was that he was youth possessing a tall and beautiful figure. I think those rumors could possible be contributed to Sofia and Lancer. Sofia’s tall and beautiful figure and Lancer youth appearance could have contribute to the rumors. However, after Makotos attack there were like 10 survivors and they were traumatized and most like injuries so they were not in the best mind. The survivors could have seem the two and mistaken them for the one who caused it. However a beautiful appearance being tied to magical power sound pretty interesting. The more magic power the more beautiful the hyman is. So would that mean that the hyman has to have there magic leak out to appear beautiful or something.

  33. i want to know is the demon lord is a man or women and battle will he use the same magic on lance and killer girl and will use different element fire spear (hell fire all around), water spear (freeze everything), and lighting spear (zeus blot)

  34. Thanks for the translation!
    I was so excited by this chapter, that went to the raws trying to see what will happen using machine translate website and google…. it was complete gibberish. I couldn’t even understand from what chapter to start reading T_T. BTW is it me or number of chapters in raw is significantly less that here?

    1. Sorry I retract my comment though google translate is still lame compared to Reigokai translation, I can appreciate his work even more (I myself don’t know how is it possible )

      1. I know I tried it with a few novels because damn I want to know what happened, but since I don’t know anything about the language I thought fine I’ll just use MT if other can do it way can’t I? when I actually saw it, damn. My admiration for all MT translates grow to a whole new level. I mean translating when you know the language is hard, but doing that when you don’t know the language and still managing to show how awesome a story is, that Is a super power no matter what people say.

    2. Having knowledge of Japanese and just using Google for the odd kanji combinations its not too bad. I can’t imagine what you guys have to experience trying to read it using just MT.

      Since the first chapters were written by the author they have gone back and changed a fair number of chapters. One of the earlier changes was to the first several chapters, making them into more of a digest then a full telling. Reigokai used the older versions of those chapters (go back several versions in the wayback) and has been using the newer wayback snapshots when required (because the older ones only have chapters up to a certain point). The result is, to get to the newer chapters you end up with the digest version of the early chapters so the numbering ends up being off.

  35. All of the gratitude comments.

    Guys, there might be a bad news soon.
    But, let’s be strong! Don’t be despair yet!
    There might be a way so we can get a new chapter in the future >,<)

  36. woooooow~ ah whole lot of chapters i’ve missed due to “busy” stuff… (from ch.131)

    finally!!! an attempt to assault from makoto… XD banzai!!! destruction to those who oppose!!!
    waaahahahahaha~~!!

    kukuku can’t wait for the next chap… can i ask when!!? no, please tell me wheeeen!!!

  37. The author moved the novel to a new site, the info was mentioned by someone at this translation’s main page.So kudos to him and relax everyone.

  38. Thanks for the chapter. The first part kind of remind me of the movie “300”. It looks like Lancer and Sofia will get a rematch with Makoto but this time he will have Shinki with him.

    1. It’s the other way around actually. Sofia is clearly stronger than both heroes

      Sophia + lancer VS Trash (midnight version)
      also, sophia is a sadist. guess what happens next

  39. I’ve binged through this series quite fast, and now I’m feeling a little desolated… Anyways, I think you should rethink how your wordpress works, maybe you could tey to see if there’s a way to keep the comments section separated from the chapters, as in not having all of them load with each chapter. I read this mainly at free slots on my schedule at uni, and I used cell data to read it. You could imagine my surprised face when I saw that 110 chapters used close to 1.3gb of data.

    Love the series anyway, thanks for translating it 🙂

  40. Thankies for the chapters~

    Keep your pace, I’ll pray for ur best condition in both work and translating this 🙂

  41. tomorrow ♪(┌・。・)┌ the update is tomorrow ┏(・o・)┛♪┗ (・o・) ┓ ┗(^0^)┓(ノ゚▽゚)ノヘ(^_^ヘ)
    im so happy i cant wait (σ‾▿‾)-σ

  42. Some google nonsense of the day. Brought to you from this chapter. Remind me to avoid doing this ever again…

    “Do the crust Oh !! stop is what Oh Oh !!”
    “Highland Oak the rapidly approaching the gate with a parabola.”
    “Recovery also should be noted that the lengthy Mace is a huge blunt object with both hands with him a big, c—.” (I do not want to complete the word that was there and neither do you.)
    “I Do not lick the wilderness of the pig.”
    “Lizardman at most oak, !! it also hundreds to guys like unexpected folded”
    “Fight like nightmare for Asmodian is still in its infancy”
    “My name is left. Mutant dragon But of the left.”
    “I We are already finished declaration of war. No, Are You had your Gatagashi?”
    “Apparently, to just kill translation also Ikanka.”
    “…… I’ll odious”

  43. Thanks for the chapter! If I recall correctly, Tsukiyomi-sama said something about the possibility of Makoto being familiar with 1 of the heroes. Please be hibiki, lmao

  44. When I started to read this light novel, I never knew that I would love it this much. It became one of my favorite webnovel with Muchoku Tensei, Risou no Himou and Arifureta. Thank you and continue your great work!

  45. REIGOKAI! If you become my wife and translate a chapter per day, I’ll provide you with everything you need and want!

      1. Reigokai-san as seen above and leave a link where you can download the chapters to not have q search which was in alphapolis page.

        Note: when they went up in alphapolis not allowed to view the chapters. And I repeat again, the chapters are also listed so that in this way can identify them easily.

        And please, whatever you want and love more. Publish the chapter today as it failed yesterday, I’m showing serious withdrawal symptoms.

        thanks to the translator of google-chan I can reach you.

      2. On a more serious note, huh?
        ….Sure, why not? Give Reigokai a harem. Or reverse harem, if Rei is female or swings that way.

        …Or whatever the word is for both. Parallel Harem? Peoples, help?

  46. Is it just me or does someone else imagine Miss Piggy from the Muppets as Emma? Hahaha thanks I am truly enjoying this read! 😃
