Translator Note:
OMG My head! This chapter… this ONE chapter was hell.
Just with the name you can tell that this chapter is explanations, explanations in their purest sense. Translating those give me terrible headaches >_O!
Anyways, the people coming here are increasing by the day, that makes me happy :D!
Enjoy the chapter ;D
Tomoe hasnโt gotten in touch with me.
Last night I certainly drank too much so I wasnโt able to contact her. But for her to not have any contact as well, makes me a bit worried.
An โinvestigationโ that I have asked for was a happy happening for her. However, from her flaming passion I felt something else as well.
โAnyways, the buildings are made at an incredible pace huhโ (Makoto)
I make a monologue half in admiration and half in shock.
Even though I got the raw materials 3 weeks ago.
In that whole area my house was already being built.
From the way the parts like the pillars and walls are assembled here and there, I can tell that itโs going smoothly.
The problem is that it’s huge. Arenโt they making it in a crazy size? I was planning for it to be a building like the ones I see in Tsige but, the one that is being made right now is, honestly, on a whole different level.
What they were building in front of me was like a government office building. As expected, it wonโt be a multistory building but, itโs pretty big.
I want you to think like this.
The general population in here is approximately in the several hundred.
Thinking about the number of people that are being used to make this place and the manual labor, I just canโt laugh.
โYeah, itโs max priority after all!โ (Ema)
Ema-san is following Mio and me. I donโt know if itโs because the highland orc lady has high communication skills or because she adapts fast, but she is a person that moves busily between the many races here.
It would give me more peace of mind if they just left this half made place for later and concentrated on stabilizing the livelihood of everyone here.
โEma-san, you can leave my house for later so itโs okay to have the dwarfs-san, lizards-san, cherub-sans* and the various others to do the urgent jobs firstโ (Makoto) <TN: must be a new race in the Asora>
โI am also suggesting that. We havenโt decided on where the genuine city will be made so the only work that we can do together is this one-desu yoโ (Ema)
She explains it to me while smiling. I could see anger in that smile but it must be my imagination. I havenโt done anything that could anger anyone after all.
โWhen thisย is done Waka-sama can have a place to live and we can use it as a temporal place for meetings so there is no need to worryโ (Ema)
So thatโs how it is. Then it should be fine. I will just gratefully let them construct it.
She is a really well-made person. Regarding Asora I should ask Ema-san instead of Tomoe. Seriously.
โI see, I gladly welcome you all so use it as much as you guys want okay? For meetings or assemblies or anything of the sort. By the way, Tomoe is?โ (Makoto)
โTomoe-sama said that she would investigate the vegetation and present condition of Asora and has gone by herself for a few days already. There some things that I was curious about, so she is investigating those as wellโ (Ema)
With a bit of reserve, Ema-san tells me about the movements of Tomoe.
โThings you are curious about huh. Ema, youโฆโ (Makoto)
โWaka-sama!โ (Ema)
โYes?!โ (Makoto)
Suddenly calling me out, I unintentionally responded with a โyesโ. I still have the common sense of my previous world carved in me. I still have remnants of the moments when Sensei called me out like that.
โPlease stop using polite manner to talk with us. Even if you have to force yourself, please talk with us in a normal way!โ (Ema)
Well, I am the type that uses polite manner a lot thoughโฆ To force myself to do it normally, I somehow donโt understand the meaning of it.
Muu. Is it because these guys are people that live in a world that one of my followers made and I am an existence that is above that person?
Do mamonos place more importance in the positions compared to human beings?
โI will be careful from n- I will do my bestโ (Makoto) <TN: he was going to use polite again but changed it mid-way>
Letโs get used to it as time goes on. I canโt just change with the flip of a switch after all.
โAnd so, Ema-san. You said there were things you were curious about, I want to hear the details. Also, a report of these few days, short version pleaseโ (Makoto)
It must be because I changed my way of speaking, she seemed a bit happier. It seems that Ema-sanโs temper has gotten better.
Just like a few moments ago, she reported me in a secretary-like manner.
โThen, I will begin by reporting you of the events until now. First of all, about the living environment, there is no problem with any race regarding this. Thanks to the transfer of Tomoe-sama we have houses so, the things that would cause worries like collapses or deterioration, in the present we have no such situations. About the place to live, there are no real problems and we have finished dividing the areasโ (Ema)
The transfer of Tomoe huh. That is certainly convenient. Since I didnโt have a house in the first place I had to live in a tent but, the races that came later have come here with their whole settlement so there were no problems with the place to live and the things to wear. In the time of the migration we had them take out their household belongings but that is in case the place collapses.
โThe Arkes said that they would mind about their own dwellings in the forest and mountains. We and the Lizard race are both helping in regards to that so there is no problem. They watch from there and are able to look at every direction so they are helping in the examination of the circumferenceโ (Ema)
โYeah, I have received reports from those kids. They are putting in order the flora and fauna that they find-desu waโ (Mio)
Mio complements. The Arkes are Mioโs kin, or more like, a parent child relationship. It seems that the reports come to Mio first.
โIn terms of individual strength they are the highest ones so, for them to do the survey of the surroundings is trustworthy. We should go to thank them later, right Mio?โ (Makoto)
โSuch generous words, thank you very much Waka-sama. Those kids will also be happy-desu waโ (Mio)
โThey are a real help. Itโs a terrain that has appeared after Mio came but, there are no problems in the present survey. The faraway forest has quite the distance so there havenโt been any surveys on it yet. The environment also, most of the things in here coincide with the information we have received from Tomoe-sama and Waka-sama. The arrangements of these are being done by us but I am thinking of doing that after the house is made. Is that okay?โ (Ema)
โOf course, I donโt mind. And the dwarfs?โ (Makoto)
โMost of them are at the residences or in the various racesโ village repairing or making tools. A portion of the superior blacksmiths are sacrificing their own sleeping time in order to create the equipment and goods that Waka-sama, Tomoe-sama and Mio-sama will be usingโ (Ema)
I see, they did say something about presenting me equipment before. I received arrows so I thought those were what they were referring to but, it seems that wasnโt it. That means that the iron ribbed fan and kimono of Mio are just temporal things?
โFinally, about the Mist Lizards, the guarding of the various settlements and the pioneering of places that can be used as agricultural land as well as raw materials. We are also leaving them in charge of the supplying of food. We are regulating it so the work is progressing extraordinarily wellโ (Ema)
Hoho~ not only are they pure military power but they can even pioneer and gather raw materials huh. โA civil official that can serve wellโ or something like that. However, they are in a phase where they are already thinking about agricultural land huh. Itโs not like I feel that the scope of the duties are a bit too spread out but.
Contrary to human beings, they have a talent in one area and on top of that they are using the right person in the right place so, itโs no surprise that itโs going well. But to spread out the work so much, I feel like in the current situation we will end up with a lack of hands no matter what.
From what I have heard in the report, I feel like asking the people to drop the pace in the construction of my house and concentrate on the other things. Also, there is one thing that was left out from the report.
โI feel like there is clearly not enough hands thoughโ (Makoto)
I ask without restrain. There is no point if they are pushing themselves after all.
โYou are right, that was one of the problems I was going to report after. The scale of the other works are still small so it isnโt a problem about the numbers but a problem of the quality thoughโ (Ema)
Oh? For things like cultivating new land and pioneering, they give me the impression that the more the better but, is that not how it is?
In the surveying also, I think that numbers are strength though.
โIn things like pioneering and cultivating new land, I think that numbers are more important though?โ (Makoto)
โIf itโs about spreading without thinking then yes. But right now we are in a test-like period so we are giving priority to the order and procedure of the settlements. The most important thing right now is to obtain talents that can grasp and understand the data gatheredโ (Ema)
โAnd you are saying?โ (Makoto)
โThe information of Waka-sama is written in a language that we donโt understand so, at occasional times we are advancing while confirming with Tomoe-sama but itโs a difficult voyage. Since a few days ago Tomoe-sama hasn’t been here so, from the various races there have been a lot of reports saying โwhat is this?โ piling up without being able to resolve~โ (Ema)
โI only know a bit of it soโฆโ, is what Ema-san said and looked at me. I understand the meaning of her gaze. Expectation. โIf you are here then act as a dictionaryโ, is what she must be trying to say.
Tomoe, did you run away in the middle of it?!
I see, I was forgetting it. I can speak it but the real language in itself is still Japanese. In my memories itโs all spoken in Japanese so I have written it that way too. Well, for the orcs and lizards itโs obvious that they wonโt make any progress seeing that.
Or more like, Tomoe who understands it, is amazing. It is true that people learn faster when itโs something they likeโฆ how fearsome is history drama. Was it you who taught Tomoe Japanese in such a short time?
But itโs not like that Tomoe understands it completely, and to always use her as a replacement for a dictionary would obviously make her explode at some pointโฆ Well I donโt know if she exploded and escaped though.
โThe reading comprehension of written characters huh. Certainly, in that respect, no matter how many you have, it would be of no help. But even if I say that, there is no way I can be here the whole time. I will think about it. Anything else?โ (Makoto)
For now I will escape. I canโt go teaching Japanese lessons for a whole day after all.
โAfter that, there is the โseasonsโ that Waka-sama mentioned before butโฆโ (Ema)
โAh, โthis is an easy place to live in as just likeย springโ, is what you are trying to say right?โ (Makoto)
โโฆ Well, it seems that it has been repeatedly changing lately. It suddenly becomes hotter, suddenly becomes cooler, of course, itโs a lot lenient than the times in the wasteland but since it changes without previous notice it is causing a bit of problems. Last week it even snowed. Are seasons something that change by the day?โ (Ema)
SNOW?!
Right now it feels like a normal spring closing in to summer. Itโs cleared up and has a gentle breeze blowing. Itโs a peerless place to live in.
If with this it snows tomorrow, then it would certainly be troublesome. There must be some reason for it so we should investigate it. Maybe I should find Tomoe and make her do it. No, wouldnโt it be better if I have Mio help here as well?
โNo, seasons are something that run in a cycle. This is quite the strange thing. There are still a lot of things that we donโt understand in Asora huhโ (Makoto)
โYeah, that is a point of worry, anyways, this is something that Tomoe-sama grumbled butโฆโ (Ema)
It doesnโt sound decent.
What is it? Did she have the urge to say shaved eyebrows or something? If she doesnโt restrain herself I will have her shave her own eyebrows. <TN: A Japanese pun with eyebrows I didnโt get. ไปๅบฆใฏ้บปๅใจใ่จใใใใชใฃใใฎใใใใคใฏใๅคงๆฆใซใใจใใใจ็ใ้บปๅใซใใใใ>
โIn these 3 weeks, it seems that Asora has stopped expandingโ (Ema)
โฆ Eh?
It was a serious doubt. You shocked me for a bit there.
Tomoe once told me that the expansion of Asora was still continuing and she couldnโt mark a clear end point.
Thatโs why I ordered Tomoe to investigate the expansion while she was doing independent action.
You are telling that the moment I ordered this, it stopped?
Are you telling me that the actions I did before and the actions I am doing now were affecting the expansion of the place?
I donโt understand. I want to think that Tomoe went to investigate that.
โIt stopped you say. It was so big that it was troubling me so it may be good butโฆโ (Makoto)
โIt would be nice if Tomoe-sama knows something about thisโ (Ema)
Tomoe you rascal, you really disappeared suddenly. To think that you didnโt even get in contact with the people here. I will be doing a forced summon afterwards.
โI will leave it as, โconfirm laterโ. After that, I had asked Tomoe for one other work but, how is it going with that?โ (Makoto)
Itโs something that is pretty important for me. For the treatment of the people in Asora after this and for the sake of evading the suspicion that will be directed at me.
โYeah, I donโt understand the meaning that well but its proceeding smoothly. For now it is impossible to have them wandering around so we are using them as language practice partners and returning themโ (Ema)
Fumu, it seems to be going quite well. The thing that seemed to create the most problem, I feel like I was freed from a heavy burden.
โAre you letting them carry some goods?โ (Makoto)
โYeah, just as you said. Centering in the food and the things they call raw material, food that will reach the town, we are giving those with the pretext of having them teach us the common language. But Waka-sama, what is it you are trying to accomplish?โ (Ema)
So Ema-san still doesnโt understand huh. Tomoe that frequently goes from Asora to outside surprisingly understood it but, for Ema-san that has only been here is certainly hard to comprehend.
โIn the future, at the times when we are going to take the things that are produced and yielded here to the outside, to have precedent is something quite important. That I am the only one selling it would create unnecessary prying and frictionโ (Makoto)
Thatโs right, we slip in some random adventurers and have them understand that they have no ill will, then give them things and have them return.
The adventurers that return will begin to spread rumors about a mamono land that has mysterious things.
That will become common knowledge for the merchants and if it comes to a point where they will accept the adventurers as targets of good fortune, the goods of Asora will circulate at a reasonable pace.
If I create a rotation of races that take charge of this and have them spread rumors of different towns then it will be a done deal.
The things that I am handling are objects that seem to not be from this world so, itโs better to have at least this amount of preliminary arrangement or it will become troublesome later.
After all, to take care of the problems before they occur is, in the end, the most comfortable way.
โEma-san and the highland orcs as well as the lizardmen and dwarfs, is that how you guys are shifting?โ (Makoto)
โNo, the Arkes are also in it. They have memorized most of the common language after allโ (Ema)
Those half spider people, their ability is high, . As expected from Boss characters.
โThen the things that are discharged are food products, the mist lizards are ornament products, dwarfs are manufactured products, and the Arkes with the medicines they have produced. Is that how it goes?โ (Makoto)
I still canโt understand the Arkesโ magic medications and gold products, I have to check this out with Mio.
There should be nothing to worry about regarding the dwarfsโ products. Those stubborn craftsmen would not give someone a creation that doesnโt fit the capability of people.
Well, craftsmen are troublesome in that sense though.
โYou are right, right now our magic knowledge is a bit poor. Even though I say that, the only things that the races are giving are all things that are used in daily lifeโ (Ema)
From the point of view of Ema-san, the hyumans are not equal beings. They sometimes come, moreover, they are not that strong at all, is how she must see them. Because by the time they reach this point, they are mostly exhausted.
The missions that have a single highland orc as subjugation target is already rank A so, they must be pretty strong. Of course, the ones that appear around them are normally the combat related warriors so that affects the rank as well.
In reality, Ema-san was almost killed by a Liz. If itโs about the inborn strength they may be at B-.
โThatโs good enough. That the things made here are being taken outside has a meaning in itself. When the scale of the place gets bigger itโs fine if we just increase the grade of the items slowly. I am counting on you guys to continue like thisโ (Makoto)
This will be supervised by Tomoe. In the future, letโs continue leading adventurers into this โparadiseโ as planned.
After that isโฆ the language huh.
To teach Japanese is difficult. If thatโs how it is then, should I have a TV video made as a teaching material with subtitles in common language?
Howeverโฆ no matter how much Tomoe likes history dramas, her learning was way too fast. Is there a trick to it?
โI understand. We will be continuing while following the instructions of Tomoe-sama. With this, I have said all I had to sayโ (Ema)
โYeah, please do so. For a while now people have been coming here but, isnโt it work? I have Mio over here so itโs fine if you go attend themโ (Makoto)
Because if people saw that I am the one she is talking to, itโs impossible for them to intrude after all.
It seems it was just as I thought, excusing herself, Ema-san left with a quick pace. Well, what a busy person huh. She really helps me a lot.
โHey, Mio. You, do you understand Japanese?โ (Makoto)
โJapanese? Itโs a word I havenโt heard before. I think I probably wouldnโt understand itโ (Mio)
โRight. Itโs the language from my country thoughโ (Makoto)
โThen I understand it. If its conversation then I have no problemsโ (Mio)
She said it smoothly. Like if it were a matter of course!
โEh?!โ (Makoto)
โItโs because we have made a pact. Because it would be bad if we werenโt able to communicate our will to Waka-sama after all. In the cases of ruling and slavery it is made so that the partner can understand the masterโs language. In the case of a covenant, at the time of the pact it makes it so that both sides understand their languagesโ (Mio)
So thatโs why! Or more like, Tomoe, tell me those kind of things!
Then I should leave Mio here for today. With this, the work should proceed somehow. I will visit the place of the Cherubs andโฆ
โWaka-sama~~~!!!โ
Uo?! What is it this time?!
How audacious is this voice!
O, Oh. An old man with a splendid beard is coming here accompanied with a cloud of dust. His stature is somewhere around 150 so he practically looks like a cannonball.
However, in Asora event flags stand up anywhere.
โIf it isnโt the Elder-san. I am sorry that Tomoe is asking you so muchโ (Makoto)
โAra, that dwarf. This iron-ribbed fan thing, I kind of like it. This is a good productโ (Mio)
To think that Mio would show her gratitude. Umu, she is growing by the day, this hungry demon.
โNo no, to provide equipment to excelling entities, for us that is the greatest of joys. It troubles me if you thank me for that. More importantly, you have finally come here today. I will have you accompany me for a whileโ
โEh, wait a second, I was thinking about going to the Arke-sans* place thoughโ (Makoto) <TN: I donโt know why he refers to Arkes here. I am sure Cherub and Arkes are written differentlyโฆ ใทใงใฉ = Sherabu, ใขใซใฑ = Aruke)
โPlease do so later! The issue here is urgent. Moreover, if we are not able to correctly measure the strength of the two of you, the creation of the equipment will never advance!โ
Tomoe is rather forward about it and makes requests frequently so there are no issues in the making of things but, Mio and I have never shown our faces in the workshop after all. We should go at least once huh.
โYou have a point. Mio, letโs go to the dwarfsโ place firstโ (Makoto)
โOkay, those kids have a lot of stuff they want to ask about the things that they have found until now so I will have them gather all upโ (Mio)
Thatโs right, Arkes were living their individual lives huh. The 4 of them wandered in 4 different parts after all, and there are things I want to do at Tsige so, I canโt stay here forever.
They seem to be intelligent people so I am looking forward to meet them.
Now, letโs go to the dwarfsโ workshop.
I don’t remember where, but I’ve seen scarabs being referred to as cherubs before, so maybe it something along those lines? I honestly don’t know though, I’m just reaching here
I am thinking that the hyumans would just storm the place as soon as they can and try to raid it. Ofc they would get stomped hard
The portals that the mc open up can only be entered in if he allows it. Can’t just break into it. The only one that could was Mio. But she is on the lvl of Tomoe. Most hyumans aren’t on that lvl. Many of them can’t even beat lesser dragons. lol Tomoe is the top dragon in the food chain. Also Mio and Tomoe have already fought stronger than average hyumans. And they consider those hyumans to be jokes. lol
Tomoe just avoiding all her responsibility lol
Pretty much. x. x
Temporal instead of temporary, twice xD
This needs a revision badly. Very badly. With added context too. How and when did they came back from this mist village base? Did makoto put up some sort of portal? I couldn’t make clear of anything as all chapters before this are a headache to read. How does that akawhatever work?
I don’t know either
Just enjoy the trip for now…
makoto can enter whenever he want, he fucking owns everything including asora, everything in it, all the races, tomoe and her fragment mio and the ability to enter it
He can’t write in different languages? I clearly remember that the letter he wrote was readed without problems by Ema.
good stuff, thanks for the chapter
and Makoto stop bullying Mio!!
Could it be that the “cherub” thing is a word for kids or something like that ? And I was thinking but, why aren’t we using “monsters” instead of “mamono” ?
You will know why in future chapters.
Monster and Mamono hold a different context in this story.
Just searching domesticman already!!
I just started reading this and at this point I don’t know if it matters… but Serabu/Aruke I think you could change it to Seraph and Arachne so that people would be less confused
Makoto and his waifu are really something, they could become god and goddess of this growing world (asora) and also add the other waifu to the mix. Screw the world of that bug…
I converted this into PDF, EPub and Word. Ihope you like it
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/sqdcev521zynyj4/AAAeCHJfffAe592CbSlEuuQEa?dl=0
I just made the conversion, all the rights and thanks to the translators.
Sherabu…. shelob? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelob
Ema-sa~n!! I like Ema-San the best. ( I just had an image of her with half moon glasses, and notebook and a standard business dress. That would be awesome.) Say what you want, but Ema is the best girl. She’said sweet, cute, and more sane than Mio or Tomoe. And like I always say, cuteness is Justice!!
so Makoto is going to be allied with the demons and get acquainted with the demon-lord
and ….. Wa.. what what the demon lord is LOLiTA (JustKiddin) its my wish though
I think you need to do some more reading, because there is a difference between demons and mamono if you look back on some of the chapters. The only thing they have in common is that the so-called “goddess” (bug) hates them.
I know that’s what I meant, the demon lord said that if take the one with monstrous magical power not only heroes but the throat of the bug……so at that time that wuta i meant he can get acquainted to a female lolita demon lord (the author didn’t describe the gender- so i wanted to make wild imagination)
Thank you
you guys say people invade asora, but remember only those who tomoe or makoto allow in can get in through the mist therefore a whole army getting in is pretty much out of the question
It’s more about the intention. Human is greedy after all.
Moreover they won’t know that unless they try attacking.
To be honest I’m not very fond of the way Makoto doing things. He should stay a merchant, act as intermediary and regulate the exchange of goods. Amass wealth and influence in order to strengthen then build a country for mamono. After that he can retire.
Whish Makoto would have a small part of Shiroe.
If he did that, the story might as well be over soon. This is something he’s doing to pass the time as he’s stuck in that world. Besides, he was asked that if he ever met the other two heroes to help them out. In a sense, he wants to do that as he’s not the kind of guy to leave people in need, and he feels that they will need help as they are stuck there too.
It would be so cool if the other 2 heroes attack Asora and then Makoto just freaking forcefully closes Asora killing and destroying everything in it except for the mamonos and their stuff!
Tomoe where the hell are youuuuu~?!
Thanks for the chapter Reigokai
Now that I think about it I wonder what exactly was the Manga Meat made out of?
(this probably a question Makoto didn’t want to ask himself.)
i feel like something bad had happened to tomoe… hmmm, but pork girl is a good secretary
ah, btw the i see a war happening to gain control of Asora . well not like Makoto lacks war-power ;p
thanks for the chapter ^_^.
itadakimasu
thanks
Thanks mate!
Thanks for the chapter!!=D
hmmm but he can’t really use his full power or he’ll destroy like a forest or a mountain so how’re they going to do that?
thanks for the chapter
thank for the update
Thanks for the chapter. I came here from the blog list of guro. I hope you have some blog list too. Haha. Thanks again.
Thanks 4 the chapter!
Tomoe, Tomoe, where are thou Tomoe?
Well, it’s the stereotypical demons are nicer than the humans, but, hey it’s a stereotype because it’s enjoyable!!! Here’s to the “goddess” getting thwarted~~~
I wonder if the girls he saved will bcom his waifus ?.?
I thought on the previous chapter they were in that other town how did they get here what happened
As this is a Light Novel, it skips sometimes. As in he can always go to Asura and back no matter where he is as Tomoe pretty much gave him the domain.
WEB novel, light and web novels are two different things — Where light is a published version with editors, proof-readers, etc, made to sell; web novels are pretty much a rough draft, where it’s written how ever the author wants it to, with little to no ‘corrections’. (They are getting their raws from ncode.syosetu, a webnovel hosting site like frictionpress, after-all.
B-Dom you seem to prefer the LN version
It’s usually better but not that everything they change in the LN is for the best
People may prefer some parts in the WN.
Mio is the best
if he makes a contract with Ema she might become Secretary Beshoujo
She probably is a bishoujo in the eyes of the mamonos
And we’re back to the MC and Mio XD Still, I kinda like what Makoto is doing. He’s trying to help the mamono, all those races that the bug does nothing for and pretty much has left to die. In a sense, he is a hero.
like forsaken hero=hero of mamonos and demons
Pretty much the story here. I’m not sure about demons though. I think it’s more like forsaken hero = hero of the forsaken
arigatou~!
Thanks for the chapter
Thanks for the chapter-desu-wa
thanks a lot
Thanks for the chapter.
Too bad shes a pork TwT
If not I bet she’s a candidate to be porked
MC can make her a slave to turn her to a beautiful pig.
Idk how to feel about this comments… But hey! He already has beautiful women by his side! One who wants to eat him at that!
only befor slaughter
Miss Piggy (muppets) with a better temperment… is what I always envision…
Nothing wrong with a side of bacon.
As in before: She’s cute, so who cares! Cuteness is Justice!
