「Okay, it’s finished!」

「You did it!」

After we defeated the Armored Mount Gorilla, we did a high five and walked across to the other side of the bridge.

『Otsu(gj)』

『Oh yeah』

『That was quite a peculiar gorilla』

『In the end she just beat it up all on her own』

『Its Sukuna-taso after all』

『She completely just went full support』

『Touka-chan marry me』

「I won’t give you Touka-chan.」

「Fue?」

「Nothing, just the comments.」

Though, I think that even before you got to me you’d have to go through Rin-chan’s wall, which was thick.

Now that I thought about it, I wondered what Rin-chan was doing right now. I wonder if she was there already?

While acting merry as we crossed over the bridge, the soldier-looking NPC right before the gate called us out.

「Hoou, so two women defeated that guy, huh?」

Since his equipment was the same as the gatekeeper before the bridge was, he was probably also a gatekeeper. Age-wise he was around middle-aged.

What’s different was their strength. Just facing him, I understood it. This person was quite a strong NPC. Accordingly, unable to guess the extent of their strength, I could feel roughly what I felt from Kohaku.

「Well, yeah. It was a monster that was unexpected in various ways.」

「It sure is. That one is quite a unique one, too. However, with just two, it’s been quite a long-….nevermind, I guess it’s inevitable for the one who has that proof. Since I have even heard about you from here.」

To his words that pointed out the glittering orichalcum, I didn’t react in any particular way.

Since there was that encounter with Kohaku, I learned from her that《The Proof of the Named Solo Subjugator》was an item that only a few people in this world had, and because of that, it wouldn’t be weird that even a soldier here knew about it.

「It seems you already went through the rite of passage, but putting that proof on you is a trial itself, so you should be aware of it. I have seen many people from this world who wore that and were crushed by the world. That is what it means to be recognized by the gods.」

「A rite of passage… is it…」

Which battle was it? When I thought back, the fight with Apocalypse probably fit that criteria.

If what he said was true, then the meaning of Kohaku’s words changed quite a lot.

Saying that there weren’t that many people who had this could actually mean that there had been more people who could’ve just had it, and they were destroyed by the world. So there were heroes like that.

「Thank you, umm….gatekeeper-san?」

「It’s Jest, young kijin girl.」

「Then, Jest-san. I’ll be going here again, so when that time comes, take care of me!」

「Umu…..Ah, that’s right, just in case, let me check your pass. You can’t escape from the god’s eyes, but it’s the rules, you know.」

「Okay~」

I took out the pass, which had dropped from the Mount Gorilla earlier, from my inventory and showed it. Jest-san nodded and showed the road.

「The capital is beyond the road. There are mainly just a lot of rabbit species, but be careful of the eagle species that hunts them.」

「Hee…..so flying monsters, is it?」

Certainly, looking toward the skies, I could see something flying.

Though it was called a plain, it wasn’t like a huge open field. There were clusters of trees growing here and there. They seemed like good places to perch, so there might be nests there.

「Okay, let’s go. Touka-chan.」

「Yeah, Suku-neesama!」

「I pray for your fortune in battle.」

And just like that, we parted ways with Jest-san the gatekeeper and went toward Fias.

「Now that I think about it, just earlier he called Fias the capital, right?」

While keeping my vigilance toward the skies and walking on the road through a fine environment, I chatted with Touka-chan.

It seemed that normally, the rabbits around Fias were not aggressive. As long as we didn’t get near them, they wouldn’t attack.

「Capital, that means that it’s the capital city of the country.. If I’m right….the area from the Town of Beginning until the eighth town is a country called the Melstive Empire, and it seems that the capital is Fias.」

「Merusuteibuteikoku」

「It’s Melstive, Suku-neesama」

『it’s v』

『v』

『Not b』

「Well, umm….it’s not the pronunciation, just, I thought the name was long…..」(9: yeah, the kana is long メルスティヴ Me ru su ti vu)

「There are people who can’t really remember the name of the country in Katakana」( 9: to those that don’t know what katakana is, its basically like foreign alphabet in Japanese, used for mostly foreign words, just google it, if you want to know more)

「It seems that Melstive is the name of the hero of the foundation of the country. Something like that person held back 10,000 monsters alone」

「Hae~」

「It seems that there is a statue at the Capital, so let’s take a look at it after this.」

I was not so surprised about the hero called Melstive, rather, I was surprised at Touka-chan, who had such knowledge of the game.

No matter what I asked, she’d always have an answer, and she was considerate enough that she wouldn’t annoyingly give too much info.

For now, when we arrive at Fias, let’s take a look at the statue of Melstive or something.

For me, who had nearly been done in by just thirty monsters in the Forest of Magic, hearing the legend of fighting ten thousand monsters left me feeling quite shocked.

Crushing castle walls, holding back ten thousand monsters, the legends of the NPCs in this world were just too high-scaled.

Even so, this place was mysteriously peaceful.

Since they said that it was the capital, maybe they properly cleaned up around town?

If you asked if the monsters were just weak, it was not like that at all. Monsters that regularly exceeded level 30 were just wandering around.

I wondered what the people at the capital did when they first started raising their levels.

No matter what, since it’s peaceful, it’s good that it’s relaxing.

「Mu….」

「What’s the matter?」

「Please be quiet for a bit.」

Quite far away, around an area where the trees were packed closely together, finding something, I took out the throwing weapon I could throw the farthest, the steel ball.

Considering the weights I threw from the previous battle with the Mount Gorilla, my strength should be sufficient. The calculation of the trajectory would be fine too. It seemed like it wasn’t running around, so I prioritized my precision.

Raising my concentration, holding the steel ball in my right hand, I did a short running approach as I swung my right arm.

「……shi!」

With a sharp exhale, the thrown steel ball, unlike the weights earlier, flew with a straight trajectory.

This time, to increase the power of the throw, I used the《Shot》arts from the《Throwing》 skill. To compare it to《Shoot》, it traveled straight, went faster, and had higher power, a throwing art. (9: yeah, apparently Shot and shoot are 2 different arts)

With great force, the steel ball passed into the crowd of trees. Ricocheting three times from branches and trunks, it thrust itself into the forehead of the target.

That monster, which had probably been sleeping on top of a tree branch, was in agony with the pain and shock, and as it fell, having calculated the time difference, I released two throwing knives. They stabbed it.

It seemed like it smashed through its throat. With the force of the throwing knife, the monster was skewered to the tree.

The monster that ceased moving, after a while, it disappeared from bleed damage.

「Yes!」

Since it looked like some kind of rare monster, I targeted it, but still, having hit it as I envisioned felt good.

Since the battle with the Mount Gorilla, my condition was really great. And my head was clear too, it felt really amazing.

「…..Was there something?」

「Yeah, there was a rainbow-colored rabbit, you see. I was only able to see it for an instant, you know」

「Did it hit-…..it would boorish if I asked that. A rainbow-colored rabbit, was it the one that Suku-neesama saw from the opposite shore?」

『What is it? what is it?』

『So a rainbow rabbit』

『mmmm, can’t see』

『Well of course, since it already disappeared』

『Kusa』

『Even looking through Sukuna-taso’s pov I still have no idea.』

「It seems to be called《Mysteria Rabi》. The materials…..I have too many of them」(9: just a reminder, the drops seems to automatically appear in your inv in this game)

The meat should be delicious. The fur would sell for a lot. The experience gained was on the lower side, but I had earned a lot of money.

They basically warped away when they detected a player, so it was normal to defeat them by quietly sneaking up on it and defeating it before it warped.

If you found it like I had just now and defeated it, you could receive a lot of materials. That seemed to be how it was set up.

Since it was rather fragile, if I defeated them whenever I found them, then it might be quite lucrative.

I just saw it by chance earlier, but next time, let’s purposefully look for them.

Ever since Haruru drained me dry, my wallet’s life was just barely hanging on. The fact that I had to earn money was a harsh reality.

OTTER NOOTS:

Q: Why is the MC not bringing something like a bow?

A: It feels better to hit and that it has more moves.

By the way, bows are a rather famous weapon but, they are divided with crossbow as a sub weapon, midranged bow as popular as a main, and sniping type long ranged long bow.

Other than cross bow, its rather useful in boss battles. And on the other hand crossbow is popular against dealing with normal mobs.

On a whole, its a weapon type that costs.

For throwing weapons, the highly depend on PS but in exchange they deal quite a lot of damage. If it wasn’t like that then, it would have just been magic after all.

Ogre chapter 62 end

9: I like sniping in Fps games even though my accuracy quite sucks but headshots just feels so good to do.

Cassie (PR/ED): Almost forgot to add a note lol. Sukuna’s sniping skills are kinda ridiculous. And RIP Sukuna’s wallet.
