Sponsored Chapter
Northwest of Lorel.
The whole place is filled with mountain ranges, and not many hyumans enter that area.
Aside from a few settlements where demi-humans live a self-sufficient life, there’s many volcanoes and deep ravines in this area.
It is included in the territory of Lorel Union, but it is one of the locations that they have been unable to develop.
“Isn’t that Beren! Long time no see. Has it been around 30 years now?”
“I was feeling nostalgic, so I dropped by. This place…hasn’t changed much since the last time I came here.” (Beren)
At a certain volcano within that area, there was someone that had arrived there.
A short stature, yet, fleshed out with muscle, and a long beard that grew from below his chin.
An ancient dwarf race, the Elder Dwarf Beren.
He visited a dwarf village he had visited in the past.
“What would change in just a few decades? It is the same, this mountain, and us as well. I don’t know how it looks to you who has been from journey to journey though.”
“Seems that way. That’s why it is nostalgic huh.” (Beren)
Beren looked at the scenery that had practically not changed from what he remembers in his memories.
For the dwarfs, whether it be the elders, they are a race that considers decades as a short time.
And yet, this familiar visitor said that this place is nostalgic.
The dwarf that had come to greet Beren had a puzzled expression.
“…You, did something happen? Speak, I will listen.”
“Rather than words, there’s something that’s easier for us to understand, right? Catch.” (Beren)
“Oi, don’t just suddenly—this…is?!!”
What Beren threw was something that was wrapped in cloth.
It was too big for it to be alcohol.
The man that had received it, unwrapped the cloth and checks what it is.
It was a small axe that was around 1 meter in size counting both the handle and the head.
As he checked, he saw that the name of Beren carved in it.
The craftsmanship in his name was slightly reserved which could be said to be a design that fits Beren.
There’s no doubt it was Beren’s creation.
But the reason why the man was surprised was because of the quality of the axe itself.
“It is one of the things I recently made.” (Beren)
“Unbelievable. Yeah, it is unbelievable, but…I can certainly see peculiarities of yours in this. Something as overwhelming as this…was made by you? Impressive. It is truly impressive. But since when…”
“I had what you would call ‘a fateful encounter’. I want to have a talk with the village chief. Talk about the time when I left here, about the place where I had settled down afterwards, and also…about the encounter I told you a moment ago.” (Beren)
“O-Okay! Well, come with me. Seriously, the first time you came here was sudden, but your return was also so sudden. Moreover, you have appeared as a smither that can make such outrageous creations! I will have you tell me in detail, got it?!”
The man cheerfully and enjoyably guided Beren.
Looking at his back, Beren followed him from behind.
(Well, it is truly an unchanging place. If it were my past self of a few years ago, I would have seen it as normal though. Even I can’t believe it myself. Attacked by a spider, meeting Tomoe-sama and Waka-sama; it has only been a few years since then. Can barely be called a few years.)
Those were years that he could clearly tell that his ability was increasing everyday.
Moreover, it continues onto the present day.
The knowledge he has gained by interacting with the many races, Tomoe, Mio, and Shiki. Also, on top of that, the many unknown techniques that their ruler, Makoto, has brought about.
For Beren and for the Eldwas, this is a time for them to absorb everything as they continue their trial and error, and grow with all their ability.
Of course, within their living in Asora, they will one day hit a wall, and once they do, there will be a lot of things that will occupy their minds one after the other.
But that’s a thing of the future.
The amount of experience that has been piling up steadily is truly turning into something. This kind of happiness is currently being savored by the dwarfs of Asora.
There’s nothing as great as this for a craftsmen race.
(It is not only armour. There’s also ceramics, and miniaturized heavy equipment. I wonder what kind of face they will make when I show them those. And what they will wish. Waka-sama has repeatedly asked me not to do invitations that will chip off the national power of Lorel, but…only a small amount of dwarfs get involved with hyumans, so it should be fine to invite the ones that are not involved with them.)
If they are capable craftsmen, Beren intended to invite them to Asora.
At present, less than half of the dwarves are cooperating with the Lorel Union and the hyumans.
The dwarf race that surpasses the hyumans in knowledge and technique as craftsmen, have not received that much discrimination from the hyumans and are one of the demi-humans that are able to coexist with them. Because of the need to collect raw materials, dwarfs normally make villages in remote places.
For the dwarfs that live in precipitous mountain ranges, it isn’t that strange that they lack interaction with other races to begin with.
(Focusing on that, Tomoe-sama said that at first it was best to do this separately. Enter the country separately, and after gathering information, we rendezvous at the lodging. She said that was the ironclad rule or something like that, but…there’s probably some sort of deep meaning in it. She said that it was okay to act alone without the need to bring the Forest Onis, so at this moment, I should act as the representative of the Elder Dwarfs!)
Beren had been ordered to act separately by Tomoe, and instead of entering the country from the east entrance like Makoto and the others did, he entered by crossing the mountains.
Of course, it wasn’t an entrance that was permitted.
Or more like, the north and western side of Lorel Union was separated by mountain ranges that work as a natural shield, so there’s not really anything standing as a national border security.
Aside from having a Dragon Knight unit patrol the area, it is practically in a state where you can enter and leave as much as you want.
However, that’s only applicable with the condition that you can cross over the mountain range, are able to be self-sufficient for several days, and on top of that, you are able to fight continuously against all the mamonos as you do this.
The Dragon Knight unit also possesses pretty high reconnaissance ability, so it isn’t really that much of a reliable method to enter the country.
“We are here. Welcome back, Beren! Take your time!”
Beren, who had crossed the precipitous mountains alone and arrived at the volcano he was aiming for, didn’t show much exhaustion as he entered the dwarf village.
Maybe because Beren felt comfortable with the sounds of smithing and the presence of fire, his mouth had turned into a smile.
“It seems like you are also doing well, village chief.” (Beren)
The smithing sounds could be heard from various places.
It seems like Beren picked one of the peculiarities from within those sounds, he made a wry smile.
In the Elder Dwarf village that he had settled in, the chief there was also devoted to smithing.
It might be the nature of Dwarfs to get more motivated as they grow older. That’s how Beren thought.
And he himself will climb higher as a smither.
His wry smile was half directed at himself.
“By the way Beren, that’s quite the big baggage you have there. You must have alcohol there too, right? The Earth Spirits were making a big ruckus saying that someone they have never seen before was coming, but to think it was going to be a dwarf carrying baggage.”
“Of course. Leaving aside the amount, you can look forward to its quality.” (Beren)
(It can only be found in Asora after all.)
Beren carried luggage that surpassed his body weight by several times. Seeing it from afar, it would look as if the luggage was walking.
Receiving the report that something unknown was heading to the village, the warriors of the village had armed themselves and stood out, but they saw that it was their old friend Beren waving his hand.
“I am looking forward to it! This axe is plenty enough for a present, and yet, you are making me have even higher expectations!”
“The name of that creation is: ‘Mountain Cutter’. In time, I will master it and show it to you.” (Beren)
“Mountain Cutter huh. You have learned the Wise writing huh. Can’t underestimate you.”
“I see it habitually, so I simply got used to it. I am bad at using my head as always, you know.” (Beren)
“I’m relieved to hear that. Now then, I will let you meet that hardheaded geezer–I mean, the village chief. Just stay there, okay? When you are done talking with him, I will have returned from telling the others. At that time, let me hear your story!”
“Thanks. Later then.” (Beren)
Beren and the man that was guiding him entered the imposing workshop.
In the past when Beren had entered this place to give his greetings, he was nervous and withered, but now, for some mysterious reason, he was calm.
With a smile, Beren met with the village chief that had turned around.
◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆
At that night when Beren had made his revisit, there was a banquet -even if modest- at the dwarf village located halfway up the volcano.
However, the center of it which is Beren was nowhere to be found, along with the village chief.
The reason was because of the many goods Beren displayed to the village chief at their meeting.
“To think that you had gone all the way to the wasteland and settled there.”
“It was a result of drifting and drifting about. After leaving here, I added up journeys and settled down in a town called Tsige. After that, I tried going to the wasteland. Rather that calling it smith training, it was more like searching for the many weapons that were sleeping within that land.” (Beren)
“Umu, there’s people that gather treasures from distant lands, and it is also the gravestone of the strong adventurers. So there’s probably many weapons sleeping there.”
“Yes. And then, after continuing deeper and deeper, I found an Elder Dwarf village and…” (Beren)
“And that’s when you noticed the blood relation within yourself huh. It is true that I felt like you were from a different lineage, but to think that you were actually an Elder Dwarf. Even I am surprised.”
“I was too.” (Beren)
The two of them were in a separate room and drinking alcohol with a lamp as their light and talking about peaceful topics.
There’s no lively drinking like the one at the feasts where they lift the cask and drink from it.
“On top of that, you encountered that black spider alone and managed to return alive. You are the hero of the dwarfs.”
“Well, if I had to choose, I would say I was the princess there. The princess that was saved. If Tomoe-sama and Waka-sama were not there, I would have been devoured, no doubt.” (Beren)
“…That’s it. That’s what I have been bothered with.”
“What is it?” (Beren)
“That Waka-sama. From what I have heard of you, he is without doubt a Wise-sama. Moreover, a very special one. Surpassing the impossible, and bending common sense. He is exactly that archetype.”
“The person himself says he is not though. But the reality might be that it really is the case.” (Beren)
“There’s no talk about the Wise aside from the territory of Lorel after all. In short, it is how they are called, and just as it states, it is not that they are intelligent people. If I had to put it in words, it would be people that ‘know about unusual stuff’. Also, one of the traits of the Wise-samas is that they don’t really like when you call them in a way too respectful manner.”
The words of the village chief made Beren smile wryly.
It is certainly true that the traits of the Wise that has been passed down in Lorel match Makoto.
It is not like he is a wise man, but at times, he would know some specialized techniques.
Even though he doesn’t know the basics of living, architecture, and smithing, he would at times speak about advanced techniques that would develop them further.
It is true that his master Makoto is that kind of mysterious existence.
‘Knows of unusual things’, Beren thought that it was a pretty accurate way of putting it.
“There were some containers made of earth in the things that you brought. You said that was ceramics, right?”
“Yes.”
“Actually, it seems like in the long past, there was something like that too in our village.”
“What!” (Beren)
“Its name was exactly the same, ceramic. Or was it pottery? Oh well, anyways, I was told that it this was also knowledge brought by one of the Wise-sama.”
“But the first time I came here, there was no such thing.” (Beren)
“By that time, it couldn’t be used anymore. In the olden days, there was a time when the ground repeatedly trembled and the flow of the river changed heavily. Most of the craftsmen that had devoted to ceramics had died, and as a result, the technique itself turned fuzzy…and in time, it was lost.”
“I didn’t know…” (Beren)
“It was something from a long past after all. It was at a time when Lorel didn’t exist yet. The word Wise didn’t exist either.”
“That long… Then how did you know he was a Wise? Just because of that new technique?” (Beren)
“It was a deduction from the fact that he used the writing of the Wise and…because that person had a truly short lifespan. There’s probably no mistake.”
“Short lifespan… About how much?” (Beren)
This was something Beren was heavily interested.
Makoto is also a Wise, an otherworldler.
Meaning, their lifespan should be almost the same.
Right now he can’t even imagine him dying, but there’s no doubt he has a lifespan.
“Since coming to the village, it took a mere 80 years. The records of it are unclear, but it seems like that person died without even reaching the hundred years. Like a hyuman.”
“…Right.” (Beren)
The face of Beren grew clouded.
It is way too short.
Cold despair was gathering deep in his stomach.
“He was the only Wise-sama that has lived in our village, but…even so, he left a lot of things behind. I can understand the sentiment of Lorel to protect them. That’s most likely the correct action to take.”
“As a result, the Wise can also protect them, and their livelihood will be stabilized. It is a good relationship.” (Beren)
“…It is not only about loss and gains. You are also with someone like that, so you should understand, right? The Wise-samas repay good will to their best, and repudiate bad actions. It seems like there were some who have taken arms and some that walked the path of darkness, but the majority were of calm temperament. They are way too kind. That’s why they are highly esteemed, not only by the hyumans, but also by demi-humans, and obviously, us as well.”
“Way too kind, huh.” (Beren)
“I have heard that even in war, even if they were faced with an enemy, they would forgive them as best as they can, save their life, and provided them a chance to redo their lives.”
“…I see. A kindness that you have to protect or it will die out huh. Like a lovely flower.” (Beren)
Then…it probably doesn’t apply to Makoto, is what Beren thought.
It is true that the ruler of Asora, Makoto, is kind, and he is also a good person. However, his power is so overwhelming to the point that even a Superior Dragon and the Calamity Spider obey him.
He is definitely not a flower that one can simply pluck out.
“They are not flowers that can be easily plucked out though. The Wise-samas are all stronger than the average. They have an overwhelming latent talent that at times, our weapons can’t reach.”
“Lately, I have heard that the heroes are pretty Wise-like though.” (Beren)
“Yeah, it seems so. I heard that the Limia hero who had visited this country, had revealed herself to the Empress as an otherworldler. She is accompanied by the priestess, so it must be true.”
“So you already knew.” (Beren)
“We have connections with the other dwarf villages, you see. The Wise-sama that was in this village, by the time his hair had gone white, he was strong to a point that he was able to match a dragon with the dragon slaying sword, Einkarf. The heroes must be relatively strong too.”
“I see. But to do dragon slaying at an old age, this village’s Wise was also an unbelievable person.” (Beren)
“It is not assured that the records are all true, but it seems like he was 96 at that time. In terms of hyuman lifespan, that would mean he defeated a dragon while he was at death’s door. At the time when the village got attacked by flying dragons, he brought out his weapon and fought along with the warriors of the village.”
“…”
Makoto might have done the same thing, is what Beren thought.
If something were to happen in Asora, he would also risk his life.
For some reason, Beren was able to believe this without any doubt.
Makoto probably wouldn’t admit it, but this can be considered the highest type of trust that the residents have towards their lord.
“…And then, until the very end, he soared through the skies and hunted down all the dragons…and after that, died.”
“An heroic story. And he was able to bring out such righteousness even towards a race he was not related with. It is the story of a man that should be sung praises for.” (Beren)
“Even if it was slightly exaggerated, it is impressive, right? After doing as much as that, we also have to repay him. That’s why a number of his words have remained in this village, and still live. This ceramic technique was lost though… But in the first place, even within the dwarfs, we are the type that likes the back regions, a family of eccentrics that have devoted themselves to their lives as blacksmiths. This isn’t something I should be saying myself but, we were stubborn and…kind of shut-ins. In the past, our stance was to turn away outsiders.”
“But, even if I am a brethren, I remember that I was received pretty warmly when I came here.” (Beren)
“Listen till the end. That’s exactly one of the things that changed with his words. When he taught us the technique to knead earth, he brought out a number of examples and left warnings and aphorisms. Within the words that have remained of him, there’s something called foreign soil guests.”
“Foreign soil?” (Beren)
“Umu. From the meaning that remained in the village, it implies that the earth of another land brought by the stream is something that enriches this land and brings about change.”
“I see. Carried earth huh. Change… fumu.” (Beren)
“With that as the turning point, we began seeing the outsiders as foreign soil, and didn’t chase them away just because they are from the outside. Accept them, help each other out, change, and mutually ripening. That’s what he said.”
“That’s why you saw me as foreign soil as well and accepted me.” (Beren)
“I just wanted to say that this trait had remained in the village. Also, Beren, you have…brought us this. Ceramics.”
“It wasn’t a repayment with knowledge of your circumstances though. It is embarrassing to say this, but it was 100% a coincidence.” (Beren)
“It is fine. That in itself is the very soil of his teachings. You have trained into being able to make this level of weapons, learned of ceramics, and has brought this heavy equipment device. All of this is the ripening of our past encounter. I didn’t know I would be able to experience such a happy sensation before I die.”
“Village chief…” (Beren)
The grateful eyes of this old man that is strict and merciless, was, for some reason, unpleasant for Beren.
He was being directed pure gratitude by the village chief.
In his time when he was training, he was punched, kicked, and had his beard and hair burned by the village chief. To think that fiend is the same person as this, he couldn’t believe it at all.
“Let’s hear your conditions, Beren. Not as a past apprentice of mine, but as the envoy of the master you are currently serving for, Makoto-sama. Begin your talk once again. Bringing this many goods here, I don’t think you have crossed the northern mountain range with that heavy baggage just to show them to me.”
“…Thanks.” (Beren)
The old man that was his teacher in the past, has declared that he will be treating Beren as a person of the same standing.
Beren displays equipment for Makoto, Tomoe, and the others in Asora, but he could feel a different kind of happiness than that of being acknowledged by them.
Northern part of Lorel, Beren had begun mobilizing.
Previous Chapter l Next Chapter
great thread
That was also talked about (Root told Tomoe). The standard limit is similar to humans with 100 years. 200 is the limit when trying to extend it with magic. Past that is those like Shiki who abandoned their humanity.
That said, I don’t think Root was capable of conceptualizing Makoto when he said that. I’d be surprised if Makoto still had a lifespan after getting this far.
Bets Makoto be like: its been 80 years but not even my white hair is showing… Weird.
Poetic
*Pottery
Hoping MC obtains divinity so he doesn’t die and Asora just disappears.
But seriously don’t want this to turned into a a tragic story, If Makoto really die odf old age What would become of Asora and most of his followers are long lives what ganna be of them ? Really want a genetic God ending with tis one
O Chefe da vila era rigoroso em kkkk
Awww
Its so wholesome
Feels like the village chief will reject the invitation to Asora if Beren invites them.
That story about the 96 year old geezer was badass
Deserving of a spinoff ¨The Dragon-Slaying old man who runs a pottery shop¨ or something.
XD
Sounds like Second coming of gluttony.
A human that can enter godhood but declined because he wants to run a ramen shop while living with his girlfriend.
The only thing I hate about it is because he said his adventure has ended even though there’s still a road that’s meant to be walked on.
It’s like he went on a road trip and stopped on a gas station and said my adventure has ended
Lol
5 months later, but i want to say at least this, give that man a rest xD he fought a literal godlike b*tch and won after all that extreme and tedious battle, if the man wants to run a ramen shop, leave the man run a ramen shop and serve his buddy martial god his godly food xD
They keep bringing up life span a lot but I can’t help but think that between Makoto’s power that hasn’t yet been unleashed and the prayers of the Asora residents that he may become the first immortal and rise as a proper demigod
Sounds reasonable. I don’t know enough about what preexisting laws govern that sort of thing in this story, but it seems like a believable scenario.
I believe that as well. There’s immortal beings that exist there already. What’s to say that won’t happen to the mc. Could even be more than one way to achieve it. We still don’t know sadly. The author hasn’t gone into much of that so far. Unless there’s ss chapters out there. I still haven’t read any of those. lol
wish it was longer tbh
It is one of the most beautiful chapters so far. I could hear the sounds of hammered metal, feel the heat of the forge and smell the alcohol. Also, all these feels
When talking about going to Lorel, apart from an elder dwarf, they talked about forest onis and an arke also going with them. Except the author to remember that.
Yep, Makoto have to obtain immortality quickly in order to give peace to his followers.

Thanks for the amusement
Still, the comments incision in more controversial chapters are still spicy, so we can just pay it some meter.
Still, the comments subdivision in more controversial chapters are still red-hot, so we can just give it some meter.

Still, the comments section in more controversial chapters are still hot, so we can just give it some time. Guys I just noticed re-reading chapter 168, I’ve realized that Sofia is still alive as Root didn’t finish her…perhaps she will reappear in later chapters… Thanks for the entertainment

Thanks Reigokai.
Thanks for the Hard-work!!
Wait a minute… I just noticed, but how come there’s so few comments on this chapter?
I have no idea why, but comments have died down recently.
It might just be that the story doesn’t have as much to discuss anymore, but I’ve also noticed a distinct silence from previous regulars like coatl.

tanks alot =)
Guys I just noticed re-reading chapter 168, I’ve realized that Sofia is still alive as Root didn’t finish her…perhaps she will reappear in later chapters…
“While deciding on how he will have the eggs taken care of, Root casually looks at Sofia’s corpse, which is being beaten by the rain.” – I don’t see how that doesn’t indicate she is dead, unless Root failed to identify her as being still alive.
I guess that’s for trying to use makoto-sama in their politic issues
Thanks for the entertainment
Yo-hoo, finally bingeread all of it~ Thank you Reigokai-sama!
How many chapters are left to translate?
thanks for this POV chapter Reigokai-sama, this chapter really moved me :’)
love the close friendship between the dwarves and the kernels of truth they were able to learn thanks to the wise-sama living with them 🙂 it’s always great to see open-mindedness ^^
I really loved this chapter 🙂 and I hope that there will be others similar to this one i the future, and of course thank you for your fantastic work in translating this series for us 😉
I am & will be forever grateful for that.
Thanks.
Thanks for the chapter. When they bring up the importance of the Japanese writing (or writing from another world) he reminds me of another LN series (or something). The only thing I can think of is (maybe) the “Death March” series.
pourquoi ca tamaki fait une contrat avec mamako Azzola n’a pas changé
Thanks for all your hard work! 😄
Thanks for the chapter
Thanks for the translation
Thank you ~~~
I was thinking about it for awhile… And I now I’m really curious how the author will handle Makoto’s life span.
On the one hand, I wouldn’t be surprised he if just ascends, becomes a Divine, and doesn’t die.
I also wouldn’t be surprised if “His memory lives on” is the ending (AKA he dies) given the ground work the author has laid.
But I think it would be interesting if his followers split on the issue.
Tomoe I think would be in favor of letting him die naturally. She had that conversation with Root, and I think she values his “purity” in a sense.
Mio I think would be in favor of immortality. She is more than willing to break everything for Makoto.
Shiki I think would be in favor of Natural Death. He seems to have regained his humanity and seems to have more or less regretted Lichdom. Sort of.
Tamaki I think would vote immortality, though I’m not so certain (since we don’t know much about her). She just strikes me as pragmatic.
thanks for the chapter
Thanks for the chapter.
Thanks for the chapter. Isn’t any battle about to go off? This pace is killing me.
according to googletranslated spoiler-san, there’s really nothing in Lorel that can make them sweat. it should be a walk in the park compared to all the madness that happened in demonlord’s region.
Fuuuh *sigh*
I stopped reading at around chapter 229, so I could read a lot of chapters all at once. And I just read the 13 chapters I let pile up all at once today (⌐■_■). It was great.
I have mixed feelings, though… As far as I know, there hasn’t been updates from the author yet, so knowing that there are few chapters left for Reigokai to translate, seeing chapters like this, that aren’t from the main point of view, is kind of dampening 😅
But hey, it’s not like I don’t like them! (Even though it’s not, did that came out kind of Tsundere-ish?)
Oh, right
Thanks for the chapter Reigokai!
wow i though you got captured by police from peeping female bath after havent seeing you for a while :v
I was captured. I used my time in jail to read the chapters 😂
Death March author is doing the same, either they lost interest in the novel or they are simply too busy with the novel/anime to update it regularly, I hope it’s the later.
Death match, huh
That’s a novel that has been in my “to read” list for a while, I should take a look sometime soon.
In any case, the author of this WN seems to be sick, so he can’t continue. Though, dunno what he has to be unable to write. As for DM, he must be busy. If there will be an anime, then it’s a given that he’ll be unable to update regularly (〜￣▽￣)〜
According to Saenai Heroine: Sempai route, writing for an anime while doing the LN too can be hectic.
https://animewithsky.wordpress.com/2015/07/20/saekano-spinoff-review-egoistic-lily-and-koisuru-metronome/
The author is sick? First time I hear this.
Meaning that the hiatus is still ongoing?
thank for the update
Bueno muchas gracias por el capítulo esta es la primera vez que posteo en español, es gratificante que la historia avancé lentamente pero con todo bien formado y especificado lo que falta aclarar ….solo más interesante lo hará
A good chapter, is interesting to see how things for the point of view of the races in Asora. Seriously how Spartan is the dawrfs aprentice work. We finally guet a wisp of how the races are invited to Asora hope they guet to meet Makoto before imigrating. By the way makot would have scated those dragons if they attacked it will need to be at least a Superior Dragon for him to exahust himself figthing it at old age.
Small axe one meter does not sound right. If one meter is small any longer and it would be a small halbard instead
but halberd is combined of spear and axe, he just bring axe weapon
halberds are part of ‘poleaxes’
that’s speculation but I think the author want to use “small axes” to talk about non-polearm axes
IIRC the consensus for polearms is more or less polearm begin around 1m50.
tho I agree that it’s weird to call “small axe” an axe of 1m long, it’s big axe already,
but maybe in a fantasy world, the weapons can be much bigger making the “small” category a bit more “big” than us, or I am just over-analyzing…
I personally think that the author just meant that the axe head was small.
Thanks for the chapter!
I like this story about Beren, totally shows us how Makoto is loved 😆
i can now picture the power of lorel chipping away, where demi-humans in lorel has gone to asora. Saritz wont see that one coming
Bacause there will be anything anymore too see
Is Tomoe trying to show off “Kuzunoha’s Great Dwarf March” to Lorel’s empress? waaa
nahhh sairitz wont see anything because we will see the magic trick of Tomoe
now you see these dwarfs, now you dont 😛
Thanks for your tireless hard work and effort I genuinely appreciate your work and hope that you continue bring so much joy to my days with your translations❤❤
Dont you guys love how MC keeps outsmarting the people without even trying? he is not even playing the game, I mean is so funny the empress going “just as planned” i have you moving as i want, and he just send his personal all across lorel lol,
Thank you for this birthday gift!!! 😀
Thanks for the chapter
Thanks for the chapter, Reigo-senpai.
This wasn’t posted during a stream guys, so no complaints. I was late because I was finishing the first season of Wakfu.
Oh, Wakfu… I remember playing the Wakfu and Dofus games many years ago… (and yes, I know you mean the anime).
I like this story and thank you for the translations, but bleedin’ hell does it take it’s sweet time progressing.
Gosh. your name.
No offense. I just… don’t like long names.
What should I call you? Thatthing ??
a d* for short, in what it means for its name
Well, it’s normal to see vulgar names … but too long is not good.
Well it’s a joke variation of a Berserk quote about a sword. It has a meme of that nature related to it, so if you want to go with that interpretation it’s fine for you. Here, I made a brand new name for you, Truck-kun. I’m sure you’ve never seen anything like it!
Where’s the new name?
Recruitment advisers… Maybe we can view more interesting development in asora… 😀
Thanks for the chapter…
I forgot my morning prayer (F5 sect) and late by 80+ comments
Thanks for the chapter
You should replace the morning prayers that you missed. You know, qada.
interesting chapter. It’s not clear whether this was sanctioned by Makoto. Was it?
Man…Makoto is just touching the hearts of all his people, isn’t he? I knew Beren obviously respected him, but I didn’t think he would be so crestfallen at the thought of Makoto “only” living for a century at best.
I guess he really does inspire a lot in his people despite not seeming to be particularly forward-thinking in the day-to-day stuff(or could it just be that he doesn’t notice it and thinks it’s a boring busy life?).
I can see it now:
Tomoe: Waka…I…There’s just never been enough time…
Mio: ………….
Shiki: In a sense, it’s the most rational expectation, after all…In the end…even Waka-sama has a “lifespan”…
Beren: You’ve opened my eyes to an infinite sky of direction to grow! I’ll keep forging forever more! For you as well!
Ema: *Trembling* Everyone…
Makoto: Would you guys stop talking about me like that as if I’ve died!? When did we get to talking about my lifespan?! What about your reports!?
Ema: Honestly!
Bwahahahaha !!
What the hell did I just read?
Now that’s one minute of my life that I’ll never get back.
That’s right. You didn’t expect it, and now that minute is gone.
You’ll never get it back. You’ve lost it.
It’s mine now.
i can really see that scenario when Makoto got ill like cold and everyone like that
i suddenly think that berren would feel makoto’s wrath with a toy bow and suction arrows, with a face saying “you want to be hit?”
A HUGE THANK YOU, REIGOKAI !
Didn’t expect you to release/attack today, if your translations are bullets I’d be dead by now.
Thanks Reigokai San.
thank you for the chapter… enjoy it very well.. 🙂
Thx for chapter
Dwarf Fortress installing~
But seriously thanks for the great work:-D
………
……..
……So are we in agreement to refer to him as Princess Beren henceforth?
goddamnit, now you make me remember Gimli from LotR quote when he was chatting with Legolas on how you differentiate female dwarf with male dwarf (or is it the dwarf from the Hobbits adventure ? i kinda forgot)
There is a Beren in Tolkien lore. A man and an elf fell in love with each other. Her father would only accept if he get the silmaris which is elves are willing to kill their own kind to get. It was retrieved but he died and she died because of broken heart . In the end , in the Hall of Mandos , Mandos was touched by her singing and tale he petitioned them to be brought back to life. They were brought back as humans.
Thanks for your hard work
Thanks Reigokai~~
No spoilers, Raizu?
I think Raizu ran out when I told them the truth about Spoiler-san becoming a hikkomori and a NEET. Or that Spoiler-san’s information is running out due to how fast Reigo-senpai’s catching up. Spoiler-san only knows what I know.
Gracias por el cap
Thx 4 the chapter.
I feel like tomoe is doing this to match with sairitz. =)
Thanks for the chapter.
Hahaha Asora is basically an efficient company where the managers are talented and they go around absorbing other talents.
Plus it helps when your top 4 (not including Makoto who is the boss) are all country level disasters in combat.
Silly Makoto. We’re not recruiting to chip away at national strength.
We’re sucking in the loose pieces of national strength through our gravitational pull by existing.
Thaanks!
makoto just keeps breaking the mold eh~
i wonder what kind of existence he’s gonna have in a few hundred chapters (if they don’t filler it away)
when does he graduade to god of gods xD
thx and see ya soon!
Thanks for the chapter.
This is like a POV chapter.
….. What will happen when Mio, Tomoe, Shiki, and the new girl find out that Makoto has such a short life-span. Because I’m pretty sure they don’t know…
I think that Tomoe already knows, because she have talked with Root. Sorry for my bad english
… Sorry man. When I first saw your name, I thought, THE Guillermo del Toro is here. It’s like, a huge misunderstanding, that this novel’s idea might end up in the hollywood.
Now I feel so embarased. Hahaha…
Well there could be a possibility his life will be extended from the gods. It’s not far off of lore that there exist items or things that extend lifespan. “Journey to the west” since this story have gods that exist in Buddhism.
Tomoe know that he has a short life spawn, and I think that tamaki aalso known.
Lifespan. Not life spawn.
Funny typo. lol
if its life spawn, he can revive when die again and again and again
isn’t lifespan tied to mana in that world? with his god-tier mana, he should live for a 1000 years.
Dude, Everyone knows that LOL . Where did you get that idea from, jungle or some isolated mountain?
What they don’t know is Makoto can achieve immortality by becoming a God
Shiki said somewhere (side story) that Gods are not immortal and outlived by Liches (I dunno why though XD)
Where? Which one?
I gotta read that!
“My reincarnation as a Lich gives me an eternity.
It has released me from the that that would kill all things, even the gods, time.
But it is not without it’s disadvantages.
I have researched it, and a Lich feeds off the hatred it had when it was alive, and thus starts to forget his or her memories. This is a certainty, and will apparently happen to every single Lich.”
from Shiki’s POV chap
http://zenithnovels.com/tsuki-ga-michibiku-isekai-douchuu-pov/tsuki-ga-michibiku-isekai-douchuu-pov-shiki/
They already know that at best he will reach 100 not more, Tomoe and Mio even have a chat about that, When Makoto first guet to know Root and he/she makes a technical explantion about interdimensional travel.
Thank u always for ur great work…
^^…
So a random paserby also appeared in here nodesu~~!!
Already follow this translation since ch 40-50…
:3…
I think the joke (though sarcasm-ish and kind of lame) passed over your head dude 😁
※※※※※※※※※※※ The joke
※※※※※Your head (･ω･)
Nah, I know him from other novel so it’s ok, right?
?.?…
😁
You’ve come a long way, my friend Seinvolf.
I can take you further. Join me, to another world.
stop that you pervert truck ! dont bring seinvolf to another world since i need him to keep spying on tama-chan and pochi-chan for research purpose
How am I the perverted one here? While you guys are the one stalking lolis?
…..
I should bring FBI Truck with me.
*Takes out phone*
*Starts tapping the screen*
Ahem.
“Hello? Cousin, we have a situation here. Two suspects.”
You dialed the wrong number truck.
Thanks for the Chappy~~~
And so, within a week, after a dragon knight’s visit, the people of Lorel find all the dwarven smiths gone (accept foreign soil, so i suppose they let others other than dwarfs in)~~~
I wonder what happened to them~~~

Thanks, Nepu! But our Princess is in Another Castle!
I hear he was last seen in the wasteland.
Princess?
‘He’ ??
It’s a trap! Nepu, turn back!!
Know the feeling, my princess is always in another castle.

Thanks for the chapter.
So short. Truly short…. I’m crying for a next chapter.
Thank you for your hard work as always reigo-sama :3
Thanks for the chapter pong!
P… Pong-san, my son.
H… How’s your mom doing? Is she healthy?
Damn, I like this TV drama-like history 😁. I wonder if there are more Truck-kun children scattered around 😀
Only now I know that I have a daughter (Truck-chan) and a son (Pong-san). I feel estranged now, but we have to reconcile somehow… and maybe one day I’ll pass on the family business to them.
Thanks 4 the chapter!
I don’t think dwarves or elder dwarves outside Asora could cross those mountains alone and not get caught or eaten by monsters.
They could, but they’d be like Beren was the first time, tattered and half-starved.
Eh. He was able to survive in the wasteland up until he met Mio though. Clearly they’re tougher than Makoto makes them seem.
Not to mention that they helped Makoto in his training for the ” Super holding back” technique of his, or else the students in his class would be meeting King Yama on daily basics.
He might regularly met with death and keep telling “not today” .
TUrns out Beren is kinda epic.
Thanks
thanks a lot
“I was told that it this was also”
it this? seems kinda wrong
ty for the chap
i cried a little u.u
Woo~ New chapter~
Error Fix:
“he saw that the name of Beren carved in it.”
->
that the name of Baren was carved
or
that the name Baren was carved
Beren: I’m in your Base, taken your Dwarfs.
all your base and belonging is now ours
Hostile takeover release the zombies now!
The wise dude of this dwarf village is pretty badass. Cool that a lot of otherworlders were well treated and a good life. I guess Makoto was really unlucky, the goddess just threw on him the anger of having his parents leave her world.
I wonder if some of the wise come from a different world, one that has a similar enough japan but it’s not the origin world.
I suppose some might come from earth 616, might be dwarves rever adamantium or something.
earth 616 ? marvel lore?
Wise aren’t summoned, so they never see the Gods. Wise are people who are “spirited away” or otherwise find themselves falling through dimensional cracks.
I have to admit.
The idea of a hotblooded 96 year old Japanese man(potter?) slaying a horde of flying dragons is…
…Well, I’d certainly put that poster on my wall, is all I’m saying.
I’ll do that too.
what you expect ? the old man in anime/manga/novel usually FKIN BADASS !
As the age-old saying goes, “Old men and women didn’t get to be that way by being easy to kill.”
Thank for the chapter.
Didn’t notice the email and now I’m late in my commenting but nonetheless, thanks so much for the quick release even though now it has become an expectancy or “the use to” norm…. yes…. I’m spoiled.
Once more. Great.
[…] Chapter 242: Acting separately is a basic course of action – Reigokai: Isekai Translations […]
Top 20 maybe?
Thx as always m8
Now to read the chapter 😋
Made it 😀
More dwarf getto 😁

thanks for the chapter
yey
Thank;s for the chapter.
ty
Many Thanks Reigokai-sama!
What a great way to begin the week!
ppl sure are fast
what you expect of the F5 inquisition
Wait, we were supposed to expect the F5 Inquisition!?
Blood for the Blood God? Skulls for the Skull throne?
Thanks
Nice going
Yas
Even though I have been saving up chapters to binge read, I still don’t forget to come and post first XD Thank you for the chapter Reigokai-san XD
I have also just realize, The likes have been dropped for the past 10 chapters, less than 100 even. What happened guys? Give Reigokai-san more likes, she (you’re a she,right?) deserves it XD
Exactly, give our Lord and Saviour what he well deserve.
Perhaps they are too busy fighting against reality like me? *returns studying for Law’s test*
Could be people letting it stack, or it could be all those people badmouthing the series, finally dropping out….
or it just like me, doesnt have wordpress account :v
Eeehh!!?? U dun have WordPres account.. S-s-so w-who am I talking to!!??
(is it possible to comment without wordpress acc?? I didn’t know.. So I just assumed some here are playing a role or something ya know..)
‘Likes’ ? What is that actually?
I know that I like and live this site but what does that do at all? Will it help Reigokai?
Sorry, but honest question, this is from an old guy who is not familiar with the modern concepts such as social media ‘Likes’, namely, Old Man Truck-kun.
If I had to say something, I think that just like the comments saying “thanks for the chapter Reigoka!” or the like, are a form to show our appreciation for Reigokai, you know, like the word implies. I guess it would be that? A form to show that we appreciate his translations, the time and effort he puts in it.
the likes? or maybe the comments? well… the reason why the comments are short its because the story of the chapt is short as well, so nothing could be done about that
Sorry. I didn’t even know I could like a post…
yay
I’m alive again! and the ruler!
If I have used the mouse instead of the trackpad I might have gotten it. Just you wait, next time 😉
To think Hollywood has been trying to warn us for years now, about zombie uprisings….
If you are alive than you aren’t a zobie
A zombie is something that died but is somehow back alive without a beating heart and can transform into a magical girl but is a dude.
Is that a zombie? <<< asking real qiestion
It is according to what I am referencing from. But the general conformity about a zombie is that it died and came back to life again without a heart beat.
Your too fast for a zombie. truck kun we need your help to exterminate this zombie.
I’m coming, brother darkm3d.
“I tought you were gone for good, Zombie. If trucks don’t work against you, this flamethrower will. ASHES TO ASHES”
