Tsuki – Chapter 296: The things brought about in battles at utmost limit

Reigokai: Hey guys, Reigokai here!

The long awaited Tsuki update is here! Hope this is just the beginning of a comeback!

Now, I would like to take this chance to announce the Tsuki discord server here, since this will be the first announcement in a main story chapter. https://discord.gg/sp3z6hA
Feel free to join if you want to! Chat with other people that enjoy the same type of stories :D!

I would also like to thank you guys for sticking with me and this story for so long! And also the many patreons! Thanks a lot! This has been a truly long journey that I hope to see through the end with all of you.

Well then, enjoy the new chapter of Tsuki Michi! :DDDD!

I ask myself if this is such a fleeting thing.

Memories of my past surface in my mind…and disappear.

Each time I receive attacks, my whole body is filled with power; every time I attack, I can’t injure him –no, not even a single drop of blood flows.

War Beast and Wings of the Saint; both were powers of renowned Wise.

For whatever the reason my blood has brought about, both powers are currently residing in my body.

Not only that, I can even use the summoning power of the Wise Tokito-sama who continuously challenged the Yaso-Katsui Labyrinth on his own, the Hyakki Yagyo.

With these many powers owned by a single entity, an opponent that can stand against me shouldn’t exist.

Even when I learned to fight, it only felt empty.

I was only allowed to crush.

Being tossed around by political strifes, my wish of remaining married with my loved one couldn’t be fulfilled either.

The thirst for battle smoldered me.

Ah, again.

From that punch I received, there was a magic needle that I couldn’t avoid stabbed deep in between my chest.

The needle crumbled and Wings of the Saint granted me further defense and resistance.

Every single attack of this man activates my Wings of the Saint without exception.

If I didn’t have this ability, I don’t know how many times I would have been killed already.

How overwhelming.

This avatar of battle that I could even feel fear from.

So it was this fleeting.

Today, I…will be dying.

In front of my daughter Iroha.

As a fool that drowned in fake love.

What confirmed my own end was…a smile.

The ends of my mouth had unconsciously turned upwards.

Maybe it was the gratitude of being able to die after bringing out my all, or it might be joy. It could be the irony that I, who could only crush, was now the one being crushed.

Ah…in the end, I will be leaving without understanding this thing called battle huh.

Whatever the case, for me, my encounter with this young man is……

◇◇ ◆◆ ◇◇ ◆◆

The fire breath of the fire maned lion had flown into where Jin and others are.

Around 10 minutes after the arrival of Tomoe, Mio had also regrouped, and she dispersed those flames with a single swing of her fan.

There’s Tomoe and Mio by the side of Iroha-chan and the others, so there’s practically no need to worry about them anymore.

I have already shot through the lion and it has dispersed.

My feet touch the ground after a while of fighting in midair, and then, I look up —at Haruka-san that is looking down directly at me with her loyal mamonos.

The mamonos were varied; from oriental-like to western-like. There were some who were floating in the air, and some who were placing their feet on the rubble and glaring at me.

There’s also some who are erasing their presence and hiding in the shadows.

…And well, there’s the ones that I have already eliminated.

“How is it? At the very least…you are not getting bored, are you?” (Makoto)

There was no response from her.

Instead of that, the naginata held in both of her hands shines.

Two slashes that felt as if they had been swung right at my vicinity were released, but they didn’t manage to hit my body and, after making a slightly high-pitched sound, they disappear.

On the other side, Tomoe and Mio had finished treating the subordinates of Iroha-chan, and were now simply watching my battle between Haruka-san without saying anything.

They are not going to interfere.

“Oh?”

“….Hm.”

Looks like a number of mamonos were about to change their properties from spiritual to material.

It must have been an order from Haruka-san, but I won’t allow that.

I skewer from below the cockroach and centipede at the sides before they manage to do anything.

I have mostly grasped the abilities of the mamonos and the time they take to be resummoned, as well as the fitting way of dealing with them.

Leaving aside whether Haruka-san has noticed this, I can see to a certain extent that the Wings of the Saint is reaching its end.

Haruka-san should have a lower ability at grasping the situation than I do, but she most likely can tell that the current situation is not good.

In that case, what she should have the most expectations of in order to change the current state of affairs would be the army of thousands that is approaching Kannaoi from outside.

The chaos that they would create would probably be the only possibility she has right now.

“?!”

“Ah…Rokuya-san huh. This is incredible.” (Makoto)

Well, that’s what I thought, but the outside of the city also showed movements.

When I look at Tomoe and Mio, the two were furrowing their brows.

“Rokuya? Are you saying that legendary assassin has appeared?” (Haruka)

Looks like Haruka-san had an idea of the name that I had muttered.

Instead of answering her, I place strength in my legs and close the distance between us.

She probably sensed it before I stepped in, she evaded heavily to the right, but I create a scaffold and pursue her.

With a straight movement that was faster than her, I easily pierce a needle between her chest.

Haruka-san’s body shines and the needle crumbles.

It is a spectacle that I am already tired of seeing.

I stand at the mid-air scaffold and look at her who is biting her lips.

“So it seems. That person truly surprises me. To think he had such a hidden trump card.” (Makoto)

Leaving aside Rokuya’s affinity against me, he is quite strong.

And he is quite the ruffian.

This power that is being shown to me…I see, it is indeed true that it is something that would have been pointless in the battle underground.

But against many, it can be said to be an incredibly fitting ability.

Even though he is an assassin, he can fight an army on his own.

Truly a brave that would make strategists cry.

(I think you already know, but…) (Rokuya)

A thought transmission from Rokuya-san.

There’s only one voice.

Of course, I already know.

The presence of Rokuya-san had diffused outside the city, and after that, it increased in numbers —the numbers were exactly…eighty thousand.

(This is one of my hidden trump cards. *God of War*. Change my body to an army of eighty thousands, but their individual strengths are 1/10th of my original strength. Moreover, it is a troublesome ability that took me close to a century to learn how to control and utilize. Against mighty opponents, it would instead bring about danger, but against an army that’s comprised of normal soldiers, it is quite the important ability.) (Rokuya)

Rokuya thoroughly explains me his ability.

Rather than the details of his ability, what interests me more are the circumstances in which made him wish for such an ability though.

There was no explanation in that regards.

“You simply became a weakling and increased in numbers…… Even if you show us something like that, it is not interesting at all.” (Mio)

Mio gives out incredibly harsh criticism.

Looks like what Rokuya-san had whispered to Mio before wasn’t about showing this ability.

(Hahaha. But, unless I am wiped out, there won’t be any serious wound dealt to me, and it takes 10 days to recast it. There have been an unexpectedly good amount of times in which I have been saved by this ability. Especially in times when numbers become strength. It is a tactic that you wouldn’t normally see in Kuzunoha Company that is more about quality than quantity, right?) (Rokuya)

(True. Twenty thousand respectively at the east, west, south, and north. If Rokuya-san alone can control all directions, the amount of violence it can cause with just the sheer numbers is nightmarish.) (Makoto)

(As expected of Makoto-kun. You understand. So, leave the outside to me. Now then, see ya later.) (Rokuya)

……

The presence of Rokuya-san disappears.

Power in numbers huh.

It is true that in Asora and in the Kuzunoha Company, our common policy is to thoroughly increase the quality.

That’s why I might have been neglecting a bit the power that numbers can provide.

Now that I think about it, in the underground battle, it was the same.

I might have to take into consideration the people, things, and the amount of material resources before confronting the Goddess.

Now then, let’s leave this as one thing I should do when I return.

The Wings of the Saint of Haruka-san will be ending in one or two times more.

I don’t know what will happen after.

If it would leave her in a state of apparent death, that would be the best, but who knows.

“Fire Demonic Being, [Fiery Chariot’s Gun]!!” (Haruka)

As expected of the ability of a Wise.

Names I feel I have heard before were coming out pretty frequently from her mouth.

I think I heard about this Fire Demonic Being from my recently joined follower, Tamaki, who is in charge of the mysterious. With her usual ‘In the past~~I was called like this…’.

All she says sounds strangely doubtful, you know.

Haruka-san summons three new mamonos and charges towards me with two of them in tow -and her naginata in both hands that I have deliberately not destroyed yet.

Uhm…the one that remained was probably the Fiery Chariot?

I thought it was a fire chariot, but it looks like that wasn’t the case.

I won’t be countering or fighting back; if you want to do something, go ahead and do it.

Will it be some type of new skill, or maybe a team attack that was born from a revelation?

Taking pointers from it doesn’t sound bad.

I am someone that doesn’t feel worth about fighting in itself, but if it is Haruka-san who seems to feel worth in bringing out her all, she might be able to find something here.

“[Demonic Space]!” (Haruka)

A whole side of my vision was dyed in darkness.

I couldn’t see Haruka-san anymore, and the only thing I felt was that my Magic Armor had been attacked.

Is this an anti-magic attack?

My Magic Armor had crumbled way too easily.

I felt like it was different from the time with Azu-san. It felt as if it were a specialized skill.

“[Anesthetic Slash]!” (Haruka)

This time, I felt like my arm was cut.

Though it wasn’t my exposed skin that was aimed at, but an attack that I felt from on top of my coat.

Maybe this darkness is also affecting Haruka-san slightly.

Her combat sense is incredibly high.

If I had the same abilities and speed as her and we were to have a close combat battle, I would have been one-sidedly beaten up.

But maybe because I have recently fought against a knight that’s more frightening than her, I don’t feel much danger.

I have gotten a sliver of courage from it.

I think that, if it is now, a match with Hibiki-senpai won’t go the same way.

“Did you absorb a bit of my magic power?” (Makoto)

That’s how it felt.

The second attack didn’t injure me, but I could feel that a bit of my magic power was stolen.

The two attacks were probably a team attack with the mamonos she had with her, but…I don’t think that kind of attack is that effective on me…

The darkness steadily disperses.

Now the only thing that remains is the team attack with the Fiery Chariot huh.

“Oh?” (Mio)

“Uooooo!!” (Tomoe)

I could hear Tomoe’s shout of high excitement from below.

For some reason, Mio was overflowing with a displeased aura.

This happened right before my body was caught by a white something.

I was more interested in the identity of it than escaping from its grasp, so I didn’t try to get out.

“Come, Gashadokuro <Starving Skeleton>! Strike your enemy with those grudges of yours!!” (Haruka)

The upper body of a…giant skeleton huh.

I see. I certainly have seen that kind of youkai a number of times.

That Tomoe…she was happy that she was able to see a japanese youkai from up-close huh.

It is true that the Hyakki Yakou is pretty renowned in my world.

Hah…

A bit further away from me, three giant skeletons were floating at my surroundings, and one of them had restrained me with both hands.

The other two were letting out a purple aura that didn’t look gentle at all and were punching me like crazy without caring about their comrade’s arms.

Looks like they rank in the strong area within the youkais (or mamonos?) until now.

Is this not a simple summoning?

Maybe this is the ability of the Fiery Chariot?

I don’t know at all.

I don’t understand why Mio is in a bad mood either.

But…when I bring my gaze up while being punched, I could see that it was night and there’s a bright moon in the sky.

A night view that was truly fitting for many youkais to run rampant with that light that shines in a somewhat mysterious manner.

Ah, since I have the chance, how about I try it?

It did succeed when I tested it in Asora.

This technique that was born from my interests, and a slightly bit from my desire to get back at that Goddess.

Well, if it doesn’t work, I just have to properly train again at Asora. There’s Tomoe here, so we can also have Shiki and Tamaki think about the reason why it failed if it actually does.

In a different manner than when I speak normally, visualizing as if I am having having a conversation with someone of another race, I speak while still looking up.

“Moon.” (Makoto)

“Uh?! This is…! An aria?! How discomforting it is…!” (Haruka)

If you are not used to hearing it, it would probably feel that way.

My followers had also frowned the first time they witnessed this.

This power of ‘comprehension’ that the Goddess pushed onto me in order to have me interact with other races at the time when I had just arrived in this world. Later, even though it was something I wished for, the Goddess gave me a life-risking update of the ‘comprehension’, and it apparently became a part of this thing called ‘wisdom’ that was inside of me.

—This is something that I heard from the other Gods, but they are definitely more trustworthy than that Bug Goddess.

“My enemy and the temporary lives that she has created…” (Makoto)

It is normally an ability that activates on its own and allows for conversation, but I can also activate it on my own will towards the targets I wish to communicate to.

Just by speaking, my surroundings apparently hear it as an incredibly complicated and unknown aria language.

That’s right, this is a magic aria.

It has the effect of buffing, debuffing, and destroying, but the point that should be payed attention the most is that it can be activated at a wide range and can choose the target.

In other words, its affinity with Sakai is destructively good.

That’s a matter of course.

If I remember correctly, Shiki was so excited, saying he didn’t know about this and had never even heard about this before either.

I don’t really care much if this is the discovery of a new element.

The element of the spell I will be using is just as I announced at first —Moon.

“Shoot them down equally.” (Makoto)

The end of my aria.

I wonder if it will succeed.

It succeeded with the moon of Asora.

‘You can even drop meteors in this world, so wouldn’t it be possible for the Moon element to exist?’, that’s the kind of thought process I had when I approached this.

Then, the effect on the moon in the world of the Goddess is…

“So you answered me huh. This is interesting.” (Makoto)

A red moon suspended high up —at its surroundings, light rings of the same color were made; they slowly widen, and create a marvellous view.

They target the Gashadokuros first, and then, Haruka-san and the other ones created by Hyakki Yakou as well.

“…[Lunar Halo]” (Makoto)

I mutter shortly the name of the spell.

As if they had been waiting for that signal, the red rings that were shining with a somewhat rainbow tint…burst.

They rain down incessantly.

Rain down.

Rain down.

Rain down.

Rain down.

Just like an object dropping from space, they dropped at an unimaginable speed, but their light didn’t burn out in the middle of their drop.

A fragment of moonlight had hit Haruka-san, and the remaining ones pierce the Hyakki Yakou one after the other.

And yet, that light didn’t hit Tomoe, Mio, Jin’s group, and not even the rubble was being destroyed.

It was truly accommodating.

And most importantly, it was a big harvest that I was able to confirm that I can use the Moon element (not yet decided if it should be called that way) in this world.

The sounds of  the surroundings stopped.

Witnessing a phenomenon of that level, they can’t resume battle immediately huh.

It has been a while since I have been able to enjoy the silence of the night.

“I see, so this is the completed version huh.”

“…”

Haruka-san looks straight at me in the sky.

All mamonos have already been eliminated.

Those eyes of hers shone a golden light, but there was no magic power or fighting spirit from her body, yet, that abnormal golden light was rising up.

The Wings of the Saint lets out the same color as Root huh.

“What an almighty feeling. To think there would be such a level of power in this world.” (Haruka)

This is the last strengthening she is receiving after being hit by the lunar halo.

If Haruka-san is bringing out the last of her strength, that would be the best scenario, but…no, there’s something strange.

That’s not all there is to it.

I feel a different being in her.

Suddenly…my spine shivers.

Some sort of power was given to Haruka-san right in the last moments of Wings of the Saint?

In other words, someone who is good at peeking and has been watching the battle?

…I see. So they finally couldn’t endure it any longer huh.

I think of a certain possibility.

A pressure as if I were confronting a Tomoe or Mio that has taken off their limiter and is going berserk —or maybe, even more than that?

Someone that can provide this much power to a hyuman. I can assert to it.

There’s by no means many who would be able to do that.

“Raidou, I have surpassed your calculations.” (Haruka)

“…With the assistance of someone?” (Makoto)

“Who knows. But with this, I will surely be able to teach you about this thing called battle.” (Haruka)

“Too bad. I would prefer an answer to my question rather than battling though.” (Makoto)

“In that case, seek it. But…” (Haruka)

“…”

“With your life at stake!” (Haruka)

Life?

…

Sorry, but I can’t give you that.

It might be a bit of a pain, but…let’s do it.

I will reach an answer with my own hands.

And then, if her change was something brought by the Goddess…I will be having a preliminary match here.

  16. It’s heeere!

    For real for the first time in a while, thanks for the chapter Reigokai!

    From the title, it sounds like Makoto is going to be his insane self. Can’t wait.

    1. choke !? *do heimlich maneuver* dont die man !! there still next chapter ! you have to live for it !

      1. Thanks man. Almost die there. Can’t help since this is my fav and been too long with a new update on the chapter beside the side stories. Also my full hatred with this fictional hero that ensues chaos even more to his cause against Makoto. I really want that guy dead on the spot. That bugworld is more f*ck*d up because of that bug careless and selfish personality. She ain’t worthy being a deity in the top, she needs to be replaced with firstly destroying her favorite toy then up next is her.
        Only Makoto could do it and the 3 gods Athena, Daikokuten and Susanoo knows it. Shiva as Daikokuten knows it the terror Makoto unleashed in the concept altered timelines that the God of Destruction destroy those possibilities from being manifested to that bugworld caused by MC. The protagonist has the power but not the will using it all. Eliminating that bug would give him the chance to connect Earth and visit his family frequently with that bug system not longer operating.

      1. and probably better than touyas Multiple Shining Javelin and the Gravity + fraze shards. and definitely more advanced than satous Meteor, but not his laser.

  20. Just please after this great battle with this hot mama, time to deal with that bastard Empire hero.
    After all the situation is a matter of a political intrusion of the Gritonia Empire in Lorel.
    The opposing side can’t longer play bullsh*t for what has happened.
    If Hibiki from Aion Kingdom won’t settle along, then those side with Makoto of his Kuzunoha Company, Kingdom of Lorel and the Immortals is enough to shatter that brainwashed country and the bruises and blue and death to that dastardly hero. The Demons from the north can also help with Makoto of his company making negotiations and peace in the aftermath.

    1. Hibiki is the hero of Lorel, not Aion (the place Tsige is currently rebelling against for independence and the reason MC is here to get merc to train the new defense force).

      1. Might be my mistake since its been too long for how many months with an actual chap update other than side stories. For what I know she has a loli saint friend in Lorel, her other parties in Aion. Though she might been summoned in Lorel but moved her base in Aion during and after the initial attack by Sofia the Dragon Slayer and her co with that little boy dragon who summoned swords as his power in the capital.
        Well no way what should happen after the battle happen with Makoto and Haruka that devastate the place. And no sure what action she should take. Wish though Makoto has the balls to kill that scumbag hero for good. And also wish Hibiki would also go along that instead tying or locking that bastard, it might amends in killing him.
        By this time, the Goddess can’t do to protect her beloved hero since she is restrained by those 3 gods that visited Makoto. This is one chance Makoto has to take and hope those gods would give message to him that the Bug can’t do to stop him doing something snuffing the life out of that bastard.

    3. Well firstly, yeah. This incident is a little too big to ignore now. Gritona needs to suffer consequences. There should be ways to really pressure them after this.

      Regarding the goddess’s intervention, however, she unfortunately is still within her full rights to do so. She made an agreement with Makoto just before the Limia Kingdom incident: she would stop dragging him into her battles and grant him hyuman language comprehension in exchange for his help in the current battle and the promise not to attack her Heroes or hyumans.

      The three gods even told Makoto that she would be fully sealed if only they hadn’t made that deal first. Which ultimately means that she can still intervene if Makoto tries to kill Tomoki or a hyuman country.

      1. …and he’s just shown off a country spanning, nonelemental (or unknown new element), Celestial Judgement spell…. On the plus side, all those people who felt that the moon was being snooty, looking down on them, or judging them for their mistakes in life, will now know that it was possibly true, and not just paranoia.

      3. Hope to see that happen where he can slay the hero the same time and already have counter-measure against that little brat bug. Not fully seal yeah but have less more intervention from happening other than like giving amount of power to an individual that have fierce hostile to Makoto.
        A scenario likely to happen when MC battle against that coward hero in the midst at night. The hero would grow arrogant and confidence having his ability strengthened at night as being immortal-like only be late shocked when Makoto is granted by the full power of the moon to obliterated that scum in front of him for good. That hero would do some lame trick like he did in the past against Sofia going nuke. But instead it won’t do as mediocre power have nothing to scratch Makoto invincible magical aria barriers.

          2. *makes a call*

            Hello, I’d like to report a Nepu Abduction? Yeah, it was a bot that did it. Uh-huh… I see. Okay, thanks.

            *Hangs up*

            Apparently bots cannot be arrested. Sorry for wasting your time.

  22. Woot! A Chapter has appeared!
    Using the moon, huh? I guess it’s the benefit of a Moon God giving you his powers…
    But seriously, why is that bug goddess still running rampant and manipulating everyone even though she’s supposed to be under watch?

      2. probably another god who probably is actually evil unlike the bug who is just overwhelmingly incompetent. It’ll be interesting to see who it actually is if it ever gets released.

        1. I am actually kinda hoping for a third act bait-and-switch regarding the goddess.

          I feel like Azumi Kei has taken care to clearly portray the Bug Goddess as stupid, short-sighted, vain, and incredibly selfish…but not malicious. No matter how awful her world turns out to be, she’s clearly just incompetent and not evil.

          Where, then, can this go? Well, Makoto eventually ascending to a level that allows him to beat her up would be nice, of course, but there is also potential for a usurpation by a far more malicious god, giving us a more genuine threat to Makoto while throwing Bug into her own path to humility.
          Heck, maybe the last-act antagonist will be Makoto’s own dark side. There seems to be a terrifying “something” dwelling inside him, and who better to make a formidable challenge than Makoto himself?

          1. well we have already seen several of makotos own dark side with the timelines that were destroyed by daikokuton (or whoever it was). not to mention we have yet to see the next part of the Something that was inside of him as seen by the lorel priestess. I think it is pretty likely that those are very closely related.

          2. also if it is some evil god that isn’t makoto himself, then it could very plausibly be someone who broke through whatever it is that makes it hard for gods to move through words (as seen by tsukibro). it felt like the 3 gods that visited makoto had some sort of higher privilege to visit, but if there is a magical barrier or something similar to keep out gods then I could easily see the goddess being incompetent enough to make the entry code the equivalent of “password”.

      4. If there’s a god, also there also the evil side of an evil god. So that probability is not slim. There ain’t actually a perfect world without balancing it out. In almost all fantasy worlds there’s two side as always in the realms of divinities.

        1. That’s true. I can’t think of a single myth that doesn’t have at least a dichotomic scale.

          Hmm. I can’t imagine Bug having a conflict that deep though. All that appears in my head is a sitcom nemesis or high school “mean girl-esque” drama.

      5. None biased conflict with someone the same in her role but someone that see her but a brat and waiting in time the moment she is incapacitated. Could be a rogue deity or a low-ranking god exist long before that bug came to that world. A rogue that lives in the space between dimension that maybe the one helped Hibiki back then. A cunning evil god as it is.

      6. Something like who mío is the spirit of darkness or something similar
        I think it was described by tomoe as an ancient existence that drifted from the worlds seams or something

  25. btw there is a possibility it isn’t the goddess and instead it’s another being like athena, Root, shiva, mysterious voice who randomly gives power, etc etc

  26. btw there is a possibility it isn’t the goddess and instead it’s another being like athena, Root, shiva, mysterious voice who randomly gives power, etc etc

  28. SHIIIIIEEETTT
    If he can communicate with everything, I don’t want to know the limits of that skill…
    Requesting the Moon to kill your enemies huh?

  30. It’s So Coooool!!
    I mean yes
    It’s freaking Cooooool!!
    Yep
    Thank you so much Reigokai-san
    I really appreciate it!

    1. It’s not exactly summoning a new laws, but more like using the code that no one know how to used. Kinda like a zero-day exploit with no hope of it getting patched

  33. Thank for the update

    Using a celestial body, both symbolically and physically huh. Hopefully he isn’t inadvertently summon a waifu or anything.

      3. Technically possible. The bug is an invader that made her ways to that world. The Superiors Dragons and native race were not of her creation. She only created hyumans and elves (with her outlook in aesthetic crap), insert her system in there with spirits and new elements. The Moon and the world is not of her from the beginning. More like she bought the place without permission. So I can understand the Moon would granted Makoto an ok sign using its power in lending him some.

  34. Thanks for the chapter, Reigo-senpai!!!

    Oh boy… Someone’s interfering. It could be the bug, it could even be Root. Only the next chapter can tell… I hope.

    3. She has the powers of several Wise, maybe some of them are related to Root, like powers they unlocked after “meeting” Root, were also passed down to descendants? That, or another Sofia like atavistic trait….

  35. Thanks for the chapter. I can not remember the last time I scene or read of the Red moon being used as a special attack. Usually it is for a background setting signaling something bad is going to happen or in the Vampire D series it is symbolize for vampires as bad omen and not to bite or make another undead. I remember 1 time I saw a lunar eclipse it was pretty interesting. Maybe this means that Makoto has the power to move the moon?

    1. Power of the moon, to be precise. It’s like Sailor Moon, but she actually used the moon as a battery and a battering ram

      1. When there is a lunar eclipse it is the moon passes directly behind Earth and into its shadow. I was pretty much make fun of the lunar eclipse. I do know of a weakness to stop of the special attacks both the Sailor Moon attack you mention and this 1.

        Just use the Kamehameha attack from Dragon Ball and blow it up.

          1. Sounds similar in Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time, but that 1 you have to wait until when you are the adult Link after completing the Water temple go to 2 standing post, shot between them when the sun is between, and you get the fire arrow. Is there a limit how many times you can use that attack or restrictions?

          2. There’s a cooldown I think, but otherwise, no, you just need to finish most of the DLC’s questline for the bow, and get the arrows blessed.

    1. that could be a somewhat accurate of the magic firing animation
      and i want lucio for my light team :<

      1. nahh… its better to just blow trashmoki to the moon, maybe he choke himself to dead in the vacuum of space… but since he’s immortal when its full moon…. well….

      2. I can’t believe I didn’t think of that! I was more focused on “Finally! He can command the entire world now!” But that scenario is just way too tempting. Also, if you think about it doesn’t Makoto never have to use mana/magic again if he can just command everything in creation to do his bidding? Only using magic for his arrows and magic armor would give them a real boost.

        1. “Saving on mana” isn’t really on Makoto’s list of priorities though.

          I think I’d be more interested in him “talking” to his own mana pool and asking it to come gushing out at once to attack things as its own body. Something like a “Magic Power Golem”, you could say.

  44. thanks for the chapter! i hope we’ll get more of this soon. always annyoing to have a break/hiatus while a battle occurs.

    2. Iroha is pretty much the only reason I’m hoping Haruka lives.

      Makoto probably had the power to do it nonlethally, though the goddess might’ve just ruined that leeway.

      1. ah no, the wings only activate against damage and debuff against her but unknowingly the trashmoki charm can bypass the ability

    Thank you Reigokai.
    That was a fast translation… and I was slow to pick up because I was asleep.

    No, you don’t know what I was saying in the above phrases. Those are not gibberish, I was talking to the Moon.

      2. Ahahaha ! No, you silly. It’s not that.
        Well, you can Google the whole thing and find the answer yourself.
        I’ll just keep quiet for now because the Moon.told.me.a.secret. About TsukiMichi.

    1. Stop throwing that thing around! You might hurt someone.
      …
      * sound of a gigantic EXPLOSION*
      …
      Too late…

  53. YEAAAAAH! YEAAAAAH! I’ve wanted to see the full potential of Makoto’s Omni-linguistics skill for the longest time now, and the moon is the perfect topic for this technique’s big debut.

    I wonder if the moon chose to listen to Makoto because it can’t refuse, it “instinctively” responds to his power, or if it just likes him? Either way, I feel like this can’t really be called an “element”. It’s more…a style of magic? A school? Form? Anyway, if it’s just an element, then it should be possible to imbue Moon into other spells, and maybe mix it with other elements.

    …Nevermind. I convinced myself. I’m way into it being an element now. I wonder what it’s strong and weak against?

    1. possibly like ice is variation of water magic, could be a hidden element that come from combination of elements ?

    2. Rather “moon” element….I find it a bit better to call it Luna / “lunar” element… There’s a game called Boktai and Luna is considered as a terrestrial element…. 😀

  54. goddamnit ! im really lateeeeee ….. and what the heck !? instantly 60++ comment !?
    and to think the comprehension of words wisdom can make Makoto to access this kind of spell…. scary scary~
    if at night he can access moon for bombarment spell….. what if he fight at noon and use sun for bombardment spell !?

    1. To be fair, it’s not confirmed that this world has the same sort of astrological universe as ours.

      For all we know, the world might be flat, the sun might revolve around it, and the moon might be just as big as the sun.

  55. Thanks for the chapter! Man Makoto’s powers just keep becoming more and more mysterious and confusing…

  56. Oooh…So the Bug Goddess finally decided to intervene and break the rules (again), huh? From Makoto’s description, it almost sounds like she’s possessing Haruka.

    Either way, this battle might’ve just gotten a little more…fair? There’s a slightly higher possibility of Makoto losing than before, is all.
    Time for a test run against the goddess!

    I wonder if the Bug’s keepers are going to come punish her for blatantly trying to help get Makoto killed here…

    …Wait! If Bug has been lurking about observing all this time, then doesn’t this mean she should know exactly the sort of mess Trashmoki is stirring up with his Charm? I just assumed she wasn’t really paying attention, but there’s no way that’s the case here, right?

    1. you think that BUG would fix all the mess that she caused !? i absolutely doubt that good for nothing BUG would even get up from her bed to fix anything that happen because of her slothness

    2. I don’t think we give the Goddess enough credit sometimes. There was a past chapter where Root said that the Goddess sure had an eye for choosing heroes. One who would act as a just and wise ruler, and one who holds the power to conquer and unite the world. Essentially, I think she chose Tomoki knowing full what he would do; rather, I think she was counting on him doing so.

      1. So she intends to hand the world into Hibiki’s hands…. If she knew what people they were she knew how conniving Hibiki could get (for her goals) or how sick Tomoki could act (for his desires)…. The key lies in the ideal future that the goddess envisions….

      2. Oh, really? Root did? I don’t quite remember that, but I’ll take your word for it.

        Even if that’s the case, I don’t think the goddess has that level of foresight or insight, considering how she treated Makoto. Not to mention, she completely failed to comprehend why his parents wanted to leave her world and seemed completely oblivious to Makoto’s latent power up until he started actually causing worldwide ripples.

        My interpretation of her ability, in that case, is that she’s good at picking out specific talents-the ones she specifically likes or wants.

  57. Thanks for the chapter reigo-sama… As if makoto didnt op enough with his sure hit and realm… Now he got mastery words which is support ability in action too? I dont want to imagine the future where makoto use all his power simultanously…

  59. Thanks for the chapter.
    So, either a boost given by Bug free of charge , or a new power given by the one without name but with a price to pay.

    2. Referring to the lake that was created when he unleashed the brid when that dragon slayer wounded him severely. If he could talk to everything then the lake should view him as its father.

      1. Now that you remind me

        Mana = life force
        Life force = semen

        Makoto did mana exchange with the earth!?!?

    2. Hajime and rimuru already do that with sun
      So Makoto wont do that coz it Will be troubled in copyright issue 😂

  63. Thanks! It’s been so long!
    I’ve fallen behind world reformation and tsuki extra chapters, but I refuse to allow myself to fall behind the main story even if I don’t have time. I’ll make time!

  64. Thanks for the chapter.

    God I’ve been waiting for this! Really happy to see a new Tsuki chapter. And with this chapter I now wonder if Makoto hasn’t already graduated from Demi God to full God. One things for sure, that Goddess can try whatever she wants but I don’t think it’s gonna work on Makoto.

    She must be especially pissed that the moon of the world obeyed his wishes. I think this essentially means that if the world truly acknowledges Makoto, he would become that world’s administrator/God in place of the Goddess wouldn’t he? After all, the Goddess first had to negotiate before she could move in on the world. I really await the day when she gets a good hit to the face, though I do still worry over whether or not Makoto may decide in the end to instead eliminate her. Which might be more problematic than other scenarios..

    1. Your argument make sense
      First, Makoto took moon, later he took planet itself
      BUGDESS become homeless goddes 😂

  68. i wonder who help haruka with those power, could it be the Bug?

    1. It’s probably the same entity what gave Hibiki her hero worship power boost or trashmoki his atomic blast attack.

      1. Why would Futsu interfere here? Futsu was the one who hired Makoto to stop this. (Just in case you forgot, as some people have, Futsu is the one who gave the heroes their those powers. I recall it mentioned a few times. For example, in chapter 264, Rokuya said that Futsu gave the adventurers of origin, the original hero, and the current heroes powers. I can remember other times, but I don’t feel like looking up when that happened.

        1. I don’t think the mystery entity is Futsu. I certainly don’t remember hearing that she gave the current heroes their abilities, but even if she did, I’d be more inclined to think it was something else.

          The mystery entity seems to be interested in creating a ton of split timelines, the exact opposite agenda of the gods besides Bug.

  75. You know, I’m very happy that theres a new chapter… I really am… But you know, this cliffhanger is painful, and what if we have to wait for such a long time again? It hurts thinking about it!

    Thanks for the chapter!

  77. Yay a new chapter! Oh no a cliffhanger! Too bad he can’t kill off Tomoko, but he still promised Tomoko that he would beat him to an inch of his life if he ever got close to anything related to him. So at least Makoto will fly over, hear him brag about his drug induced upgrade, beat the shit out of him till sunrise, then leave without healing him this time.

  78. it has been a very long time since Makoto had to take off his ring. I wonder if this time he would really do it.

  85. thanks for the chapter
    i think i can guess who gave power to haruka it may be the some unknow god or something who gave power to hibiki.

  87. It should be an asonishing part but it feels weak? There’s no pathos, author became lazy with storytelling? Is the result of so much lag between chapter?

    Thanks for the translation.

  89. Moon’s Judgement….
    damn… so fitting…

    and finally the third party decided to directly confront Makoto via the Bitch…

  93. So putting aside Moon bro’s involvement, so this is part of the reason the novel is called Moon-led journey I like, thanks for the chapter

  95. YES! IT’S FINALLY HERE! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

    And what a chapter that was! Makoto has become so close to godhood even that useless goddess is paying attention now! Hoping for the next soon!

  96. I bring tanks for the food, but it’s a bit rusty with the wait for that author san, so i’ll clean it a bit, and brig more tanks next time !

  97. Yay!
    More Tsuki!
    His new Moon element spell is a great area of effect attack. Only hits designated targets is awesome for aof in group battles.
    I wonder who’s the sneaky that sent power injection?
    Thanks for the chapter ☺️

  98. Raidou, I have surpassed your calculations
    Lol raidou hasn’t even unleashed anything seriously yet.He just wanted to test his new skill with his language.His serious mode would of course be azusa+overcharged rings brids+god arms+sakai enhancement.
    I wonder when makoto is gonna kill/make trashmoki impotent for the rest of his life. And he needs to also show bitchiki some real fear so that she doesn’t start the ‘u can do anything if u try hard’ thing

    1. Does anyone kinda want him to say sailors moons’ finisher line when he was dropping the meteors or is it just me?

  105. Thank you so mutch for the chapter Regokai, it literally saved me from exploding of stress today. Makoto as always been over the top, so a casual conversation with the moon turns out into an attack, wondering who is the one lending power to Haruka, is it the Goddes, or the entuty that gave the heroes the power up. Could there be other Gods observing that world and decided to interfire.

    2. The Goddess at this time and needs doesn’t have much power to do so since she’s been restrained by a collar or choker by Athena, Susanoo and Daikokuten. So my guess is that mysterious entity helping her like what happened to Hibiki when she burst her newfound power and break Shiki’s magic barrier confining her and comrades.

      1. Thats true, i forgot that the Goddes found the world and created some races and land. I think I am not the only want that wants Haruka to defect to Makoto side, that would be a major move that would trash the hole board.

  106. I do not know if it is the amount of time since last main story chapter was released, or if this chapter was simply so good (or both), but I find it difficult to find the appropriate words to describe how I feel right now.

    Instead, allow me to use the words of someone else, which I feel come as close as possible to expressing my current feelings.

    “Uooooo!!” (Tomoe)

  113. O holy lord
    O radiant lord who grants wisdom majesty and strength
    My hearth, my thoughts and all that I can see
    Come, servants of the moon and the stars
    My actions, my last moments , my sacred devotion; witness it all
    With all my might , I shall release this one arrow and let my body be crushed upon this place !
    Stella !!!

  115. “Tsukuyomi Rainbow Infinity” a incredible attack :v

    By the way guys …you forget that actually Makoto is a God of Moon( Makoto has Moon Bro power) is normal to use the moon by his will.

    I believe the one who gives power to Haruka is indeed the Goddess ,just how many chapters are and we didn’t see her yet?

    I think Makoto can fight perfectly with Haruka boosted with the Goddess power , after all if you remember he fought with Athena and hurt her …..a Goddess more stronger than the Bugdess

    1. Also you misunderstand something ,no one is helping Haruka …. it’s more like using Haruka

      And i totally forgot Thank You Reigo

  119. Uuooooo!!

    Damn the cliff author san😖
    But thanks reigo-dono for the translation.
    This chapt made my day tho i read it a day late

  122. Awesome Reigokai! A new chapter is delicious! Does anyone know if the author has posted another one? As in are they back or was this a one time and wait for another month thing? Anyone?

      1. Unfortunately, it is not. I found it on laoblogger when searching for a good avatar for caber toss.

  125. Another wait for many months or years after the cliff (sigh). Cant the author have some motivation again in these novel (sigh)

    1. I usually dislike this argument since it’s a bit of a fallacy, but as someone who’s had his own story stall for the longest time, I can’t not say it:

      You should try writing a large-scale story like this yourself and see how far you can manage. Heck, if you were to try to write a continuation of this story and come up with the next chapter, how long do you think it would take to write something of acceptable quality?

      I can’t say this is the exact reason Azumi Kei’s release recently was delayed. It could have been because of meticulous worldbuilding, story planning, rewrites, health issues, LN work, or just plain procrastination.

      Either way, I don’t think it’s fair to write it off as just lack of motivation after such an exciting chapter, and even more so when you consider how much larger these chapters apparently are compared to other WN, which are apparently a third the length if World Reformation is anything to go by.

  127. I thank the moon for finally bring out the update that we’ve been waiting for..
    May Moon bless you. 🌙🌜

  130. Sorry im late in thanking you for translating this chapter. Hopefully the author decides to start releasing chapters more frequently.

    I think makoto is going to crush harukas battle mania out of her in the next chapter or 2. So far he has not used all the power and spells he has and even though he did use his new sailormoon styled attack im sure just by sheer raw power he outstrips her. If he can tire out athena then he can definitely defeat this battle loving idiot

      1. DONT YOU DARE MAKE ME IMAGINE MAKOTO USING MAHOU SHOUJO SEIFUKU UNIFORM !!! i already have nightmare because of curiousity seeing MAHOU SHOUJO ORE

  134. Couldn’t wait to read how Makoto beat that trash and his NTR harem…that trash doesnt even worth as an enemy…that senpai was good as an enemy…let the moon kills the trash as long as the night comes…let the trash feel the night has betrayed him as i remember that he is immortal when the night comes…LOL

    2. Personally, I wanted him Makoto to rip trash-moki’s eyes out and use is sakai to eliminate his charm powers and prevent even the goddess from growing back his eyes. But it hasn’t appeared yet. And when the hell is Makoto going to get laid.

  136. The moon respond with Makoto with ok seems that it also doesn’t like that Bug. After all, this world wasn’t made by her. It already exist before she appear with living inhabitants residing there from Superior Dragons and natives races alike. She only created the hyumans, insert her system spirits and new elements.
    Pretty much the originals doesn’t like that bug one bit. And the Moon would granted aggressively in lending its power to Makoto in subduing that good for nothing bug in the future.

    1. The goddess created the demons and demi-humans as well from what i remember and as far as original beings they were the dragons and calamity spider (can’t remember anyone else)

      1. The goddess only created she fit into her extreme childish aesthetic arts style. Her children are that of the Hyumans, Elves and some demi-humans that fit into her beauty crap. The original beings were many compared to her children as that of races inhabited the Wasteland and migrated into Makoto’s domain Asora. The Demons seem not of her creation as not her kind of thing considering her personality of some sort high school fashion gal. They could be the major race in that world before she appear and move them in the far north to have her children have some places for them. Though she’s a deity with creation, she could entirely create a new continent but she is b*tchy and lazy to do so for her children.

    2. Did Bug even make the hyumans? I was under the assumption that she migrated actual humans from Earth and just quickly diluted them with her own preferences.

      1. That’s far off considering we now know in side chapter about the 3 gods conversing that humans in the Origin World are monsters. The part of 2 Heroes already strong to begin with upon summoned in that world and just expanded their ability by that bug blessing. Immortals as well were those stray humans that lost in that world are also monsters but no blessing from that bug. Such of the Wise (humans) made their knowledge created a variety products to that world.
        The Hyumans were originally of her that none appeared ugly or average but all handsome and beautiful that fitted her dreamworld of aesthetic supremacy.

        1. No, what I’m saying is that Bug more or less selectively breeded her hyumans so that they went from being perfectly identical to humans to becoming hollow, shallow copies. Maybe hyumans weren’t as beautiful as they are now and only became that way because only the beautiful ones were blessed by Bug and survived.

          Hell, maybe the ones that weren’t blessed were the ones that became demons and demihumans.

          And who’s the say Bug didn’t migrate over people who were already exceptionally beautiful to begin with?

      2. Actually she just copied the humans from the origin world. The name of the race follows the same logic, a derivation from the original.

  137. that Makoto is taking this fight leisurely, he even had a time to test a skill he concocted. BTW that skill is insane, absurdly large radius + Massive damage with FOF identification feature, and it seems to not cost any energy.

    2. Pretty sure there is a massive cost to pull it off but giving magic reserves of Makoto…. he probably doesn’t even notice.

  138. I don’t see why people wants Haruka to be in a pact with Makoto, she is such a empty character.
    The best you can expect to see is Makoto not killing her because of Iroha’s pleading.

    And about moon magic ? Who cares it’s not the first time he does something crazy so…meh.

  139. So when the priestess/saint girl(it has been so long that I don’t remember her name) looked at Makoto and saw his true being, didn’t she see him as some sort of cracked shell with something trying to pry its way out? What if that thing on the inside of the shell that is Makoto and his being, is the mysterious entity that gave power to Hibiki and Tomoki?

    1. In his encounter with Hibiki, the misterious entity implied that Makoto probably will never visit him. Thus, they are different beings.

      This same entity could also be the one that buffed Haruka. She even, although theorically, she classifies as a hero.

    2. No, that thing that’s trying to get out of Makoto is another side to him. He is both God and a Devil (figuratively). As Chihaya (the priestess girl) saw, Makoto was a shining white egg which represents how pure and nice he is. But it was cracked which also showed how evil he can be if pushed. We’ve seen in Makoto’s dreams (which were the parallel world Makotos) that his other selves had no problems using a “Microwave oven” to explode his enemies and he also had no issues in turning the whole of Laurel into dust.

      That thing trying to get out should be Makoto’s inner brutality.

  142. Fufufu for makoto kun the 1st round not enough to call it a warm-up,so maybe it’s called stretching? 2nd round is a warm-up fufufufu kuhahahaha
    Thanks for ur hard work rwigokai senpai~

  148. Hmmmm, Moon Element, try Lunar Element, I’m guessing this is an ability link to tsukiyomi. He is the god of the moon. But raidou was able to use those abilities given to him by Tsukiyomi and the pacts from his servents to achieve creation, when he created Asora accidently. So does that mean that his moon element powers are stronger than Tsuykiyomi. The moon is one of two celestial objects and has been worshiped by many ancient faiths. In Egyptian mythology Khonsu the moon god is associated even with time, as the phases of the moon were considered as time passing by. I wonder if Egyptian and Norse mythological Gods will appear in this series as well. I hope so, cause I would like him to meet like another moon god such as Khonsu who enhances his natural abilities that he got from Tsuykiyomi. Anyways hope this is a start of future chapters in the series. Thanks for the translation
