Chapter 70: Transforming the hack-job skills into strong ones. Part?1

Translator: Mr.Nobody

“Ezuka, it’s not such a skill to be pessimistic about.”

“King Masatsugu, thank you very much. But, in what way would my skill be useful if it just increases my power by 10% and it’s strong against human-types?”

“The way you address me… nothing to be done. It’s important. You can continue to refer to me like that, the others too. Now, my skill ‘Protect’ will add up to yours to an extent. Like this your skill will change to “Increase of defensive power and offensive power by 1000% to yourself and allies when facing humanoid enemies and other enemies that walk on earth.”

“…..”

“…..”

“Haa!?”

Ezuka raised a surprised voice as if he didn’t understand what I just said.

Fumu, it’s true that the explanation was long.

“Should I say it again? Your skill will increase against…”

“No, no, it’s fine! I’m not surprised for that reason!”

Is that so?

I tilted my head in doubt.

“Thank you very much, King Masatsugu! My skill was reborn from a hack-job suicidal skill to an incredible skill!”

Ezuka suddenly bowed and said it while crying.

I was taken back.

“Is that so? There’s no need for thanking me.”

“But…”

“That’s originally your talent blooming. If you were making an effort, you probably would’ve reached the state yourself. But for you you finally reach that state you would’ve had to pay compensation for it. This time it’s ‘Special’.”

“Special…”

Ezuka held his breath at what I said.

I nodded.

“My skill “Protect” is a skill that specializes in versatility. To protect the orphanage from the dead army then protecting the kingdom is also necessary. If perhaps you guys are excellent soldiers…. No, in order to save this kingdom as heroes then I should need to give all of you a fitting power as much as possible.”

All of the members of the former Non-Main faction held their breaths as they understood my words.

“Heroes…”

“We will be…”

“We who were mocked in class, will become true heroes…”

Such mutterings could be heard.

“That’s right, Ezuka. Use the skill and see for yourself. Then everyone will understand what I mean.”

Ezuka began talking timidly.

“Okay, King Masatsugu. But, there’s no opponent.”

“Fumu, that’s right. Does anybody want to be his opponent? It’s nothing much it’s just to receive one punch from him. It’s to see the difference. Aah, there’s that.”

I turned my neck.

“There’s a perfect person for it. Miyamoto you’ll receive an attack from Ezuka. What, there’s nothing to be afraid. Ezuka will also go easy.”

“Haa? Why do I have to play such a role!?”

Miyamoto protested to it.

I didn’t say it with malicious intent.

“Isn’t it obvious? It’s because you have no allies. 《????????????》”

“Ha?”

Miyamoto was surprised.

Ezuka opened his mouth regretfully.

“No, it’s exactly as you say, King Masatsugu. For whatever reason, Miyamoto does not reflect on the strengthening which should be on allies.”

He spoke in curiosity.

But, that’s only natural.

“There’s no need for wonder. It’s a logical contradiction if I place my opposing force under my skill ‘Protection’ as allies as I did with you guys.”

“I understand.”

He agreed to it when I said so.

“Therefore we have the most suitable guinea pig who isn’t under the strengthening effect for experiments. In other words there’s nobody other than you.”

“I have nothing to do with that! Why do I have to be a sandbag!?”

“Because you can’t be helpful otherwise. That’s why think positively and be helpful. Any of you soldiers, hold him!”

“Ha, as if mere soldiers can hold me!

I sighed being amazed.

“I did say that Ezuka’s power isn’t that《??????》. Did you not listen properly to my explanation?”

“What!? Ku, let me go! To think that you mere soldiers can hold a summoned hero like me from a different world… Eh, what!?”

Miyamoto was trying to fend off the arms of the soldiers who were trying to hold him on my orders.

But.

“What!? Why can’t I shake them!?”

Miyamoto grinded his teeth.

I looked at the scene surprised.

Even though I said that I still sighed.

Ezuka’s skills is not a skill that strengthens himself.

Ezuka’s skill in other words is.

“It’s a skill that increases his allied soldiers defense and offense by 10 times. In other words it makes you powerful as 10 national soldiers!”

“!?”

Everyone in here had their eyes open wide in amazement.

They finally noticed the usefulness of Ezuka’s skill.

That’s right, just with having Ezuka the countries military strength will double and can be said he displays a power of a hero.

There are dozens of countries on this continent but there is only 10 major ones.

Basically Ezuka’s skill has the same effect as mobilization of the continents entire army.

He’s an excellent soldier but the battle can go many ways.

The scope of the power was limited so the tactical win would not become strategic win.

However, Ezuka’s skill breaks the limits.

It brings forth a strategic win by increasing all of the heroes power wherever they may be deployed.

“Ezuka can stop about hitting Miyamoto since we verified that the soldiers power overwhelmed Miyamoto’s power. Miyamoto, you should be glad.”

Miyamoto since he was released from the soldiers glared at me but I just ignored him.

“Thank you very much, King Masatsugu! With this I am now able to protect the Kingdom from the dead army!”

Ezuka said that happily.

But I shook my head.

“Don’t joke around. There are 10,000 soldiers in this Kingdom. Even if your power is excellent, this number multiplied by 10 will simply be 100,000. We are facing one million. There’s no reason for us to match them.”

With me calmly pointing that out the mood instantly changed to a grave one from a mood that we can win.

Lucia and Laara believing completely in my started talking.

“But, Master definitely has secret measures!”

“That’s natural. There’s zilch impossible for Masatsugu-dono!”

“As expected of my Master!”

“Umu! It’s impossible not to say as expected of this ones Master!”

Why did I feel like they were quarrelling when I saw them.

“Ahahaha! What’s with that saying such self-important things when in the end you’ll lose! At any rate everyone will die!”

Yoshihara said that like he was slightly insane.

Good grief. Animals should be in the zoo.

“People who can’t think should be quiet. You’re not useful in anyway.”

“What did you say!?”

“Katsuragi, move forward.”

“Yes!”

A timid girl moved forward on my order.

But, she together with Ezuka opposed the former Main faction from the very beginning.

Unexpectedly she might have nerves of steel.

“Your skill be the key to the victory of this war.”
