Volume 2 - CH 149

After dismantling the Buglegua and burning the unwanted parts, they were back on the carriage and ready to move on.

The eyeballs of the Buglegua are used for some kind of medicine, but it is rare to find Buglegua in this area, and they are very hard to find.

I can’t imagine what they would use to mix those eyeballs into the medicines, but if there are people who need them ……, it would be worthwhile to collect them.

However, the stuff Alena stripped had been damaged and all the liquid inside was gone, so it was a shriveled skin-like thing.

I heard this one sells as well, but …… You might be surprised to learn that this thing is an insect’s eyeball.

This all is new to me.

“So, there are very few people who have such skills.”

“Ha, I see. So you’re all out of your league in your own way.”

“I wonder if that’s the case. ……”

“Not as much as you guys…….!

Right now, I m in the middle of having Rose and Yurie teach me common sense.

The slash that Yurie had just fired was apparently not a skill that is normally displayed by those who handle a battle axe, unless they are an S-rank adventurer, and Yurie had been beating the carp out of anything in her way until she meet us.

In short, the “flash axe” is a higher level skill for the battle-axe weapon.

To begin with, it seems that human beings are not a race that possesses many skills.

Although they can derive from one skill and make it seem like they have many different skills, in reality, they seem to use only one skill.

A good example is Rose, who can only use water and fire skills.

She uses only elementary “water bullets” and “fireballs,” apparently.

I wondered if she could fight with just those skills, but Rose is a magician, so she can use magic to convert those skills into new skills.

In fact, she managed to become an S-rank adventurer with only these two skills, so her abilities must be quite strong.

However, Rose said that ordinary magicians …… who are lower than B rank are not that good at manipulating magic, so they can only handle simple magic.

“Adventurers are more vulnerable than you think, so be really careful.”

“I’ll be careful.”

“Why did you guys decide to become adventurers just now? This is common knowledge, and you know it without asking us again.”

“Well, we came from a faraway place. There was no adventurers’ guild there and the culture was different. I don’t know what the common sense is here.”

“Hmmm.”

Yurie turns away from me as if to say that she is not interested in what I have to say.

I guess she really isn’t interested, but that makes me a little sad.

However, now that I know the common sense of an adventurer, I will be able to act with more caution in the future.

Me and Reizen will be classified as monsters, and if we continue to evolve from now on, we may not know how to use our strength.

I have strong skills at present, but they would be too strong for the adventurers, so I would have to be careful when using these skills as well.

Quite a hassle.

Even if there are skills that are already sealed, it is …… hard to believe that you have to adjust your skills in that regard as well..

“What the hell was that [Hmmm]! Aniki has been trying to explain to you-“

“Shut it”

I want him to stop being a punk, so I hit Reizen on the side of his head with my back fist.

Since the shock wave was ineffective on Reizen, I hit him with the Internal shckwave so the impact would go directly through his body.

This time, I hit him rather seriously, so the impact seemed to reach Reizen quite hard, and he rolled around in the carriage.

“Gyaaaaaaaa!!”

“Hmm, I prefer you to be loud facing that way.”　

Ignoring Reizen, who was rolling around, I resumed sorting through the medicinal herbs that Alena had picked for me.

Alena seems to be getting better at sorting them out, and the more times she does it, the less poisonous plants she finds in the mix.

The sorting function of the Voice of Heaven is a bit fussy, but it is still very useful because it can reliably sort out the poisonous plants.

While I was sorting, I suddenly heard a voice from Yurie.

“…Huh? Why is he in pain?”

“Hmm? Because I hit him?”

“No, no, no, no! He didn’t even get a scratch from my axe! So why is he in so much pain from your hit?!”

Oops, now that she mention it.

I had completely forgotten that Reizen has an extraordinary defense, while I have a skill that allows me to ignore Reizen’s defense.

Recently, I’ve been hitting him a lot, so my senses are getting hazy.

Well, they were not kind of people who would keep quiet after being shown such a thing.

They seem to be surprised that I have the skill to hurt Reizen, who is no match for Yurie’s attacks.

Ahh…. I screwed up.

“Uh …… yeah. I guess it’s because of the chemistry. Of the skills.”

” That can’t be the case!”

“Hawawa…… the strongest of all of them was Ouren-san. ……”

“These guys are nuts! What even we are!? My common sense! They’re falling apart!”

I can’t deny that I’m the strongest person in this group.

Although this is not the case if I restrict my skills, but if I use all the skills I have, I’m confident that I will win for sure.

Well, I decided to keep quiet about it, saying that I had taught these two that there are much, much more amazing people in the world.

It would be too much trouble to explain, and there is nothing to explain in the first place.

It would be best to keep quiet about it.

“Oh, by the way, your party name was Thunder Bow, wasn’t it?”

“You remembered it well.”

“It was easy to remember. Is there any meaning behind that name?”

“We named it so that we could be adventurers who can rush to any situation as quickly as an arrow of lightning.”

“Helping others is the basic job of an adventurer, you know. It’s frustrating when you can’t get there in time to save them.”

It is a more admirable ambition than I had expected.

The party name I had heard before in the Kingdom of Garott, was not a name that was given in any way that made sense.

I was taken back by this one, but I am a little relieved to find a party name with a good meaning.

“Oh. That’s good. Since all four of us are of different races, our party name is based of the four great spirit emperors, hence the name so we can be as strong as the emperor.”

“……Errr……… I mean, aren’t you a human Ouren-san ……?”

“Hmm? Aren’t we all human beings.?”

“No, but you just said …… we’re all different species. ……”

“Ah, it’s a figure of speech.”

I accidentally told them about us, but I think I managed to fool them …….

I’m starting to think that I’m going to have to be careful about this kind of thing, but I guess I’ll get used to it and I hope it won’t be a problem.

“Ouren, we’re going to camp around here today, so please detect the area around us.”

“Oh, is it that time already? I understand.”

Alena popped up unexpectedly and told me so.

Using the Haze Manipulation, I checked the surrounding terrain and located a place where we could camp.

“The riverside is nearby and in an open area, so it will be relatively safe. Alena, can you tell that to Uchikage?”

“Yes. Uchikage!”

With that said, Alena left toward Uchikage.

From what I’ve checked, there seem to be few monsters and animals, and basically, if we keep a fire going at night, we rarely get attacked, so it’s a relatively safe place to stay.

We seem to be running low on firewood, and we might as well gather some in the …… forest.

Fortunately there is a forest near there, so we should gather some before dark.

“Hey, Reizen. How long are you going to stay down?”

“Who was the one who beat me in the first place ……?”

“You’re the one who’s not being polite. Get up and help me or I’ll destroy your guts next time.”

“*Whus”

Reizen got up and sat upright like a puppet.

Yurie and Rose watched the scene, turning completely pale.

Did I …… say something frightening?
