Tsuki – Chapter 395: Unexpected Audience ②

TLN: Double Chapter today! Make sure you didn’t miss the previous chapter~.

“What’s that?” 

At that moment when the members of Birgit had crossed the gate with their close acquaintances of the Mist Town…a strange demonic beast appeared in the sky far at the horizon.

They were all sure that this was a demonic beast but didn’t know how to express it, so not a single one spoke. 

““?!””

After that, a number of powerful flashes happened, and at the same time as this happened, the place was filled with overwhelming magic power that even Bir and his party managed to detect because of the waves that reached all the way to where they were. 

The strange membrane-looking demonic beast floating in the sky.

What was happening below that was completely unknown for the Birgit party. 

“…Oh my…” 

“I thought Bir and his group would be the first ones because he was a master samurai and all, yet…” 

“It looks like one group has already crossed.” 

““!””

Jiel, Lacy, Ronny.

The Birgit party also noticed what’s happening there with the words of their now close friends.

A battle against the gatekeeper. 

Right, it is not like that place is only known by Bir. 

Different adventurers must have been guided to a different sector. They must have met different residents of the town than Jiel and the others.

That magic power and shockwave was overwhelming to the point that it made even the current Bir Sheet tremble. 

They once again look over at the direction where that demonic beast was while thinking that maybe that was a fight against a gatekeeper, but the demonic beast was no longer there.

“That just now was…Pure Phantom.” 

“Also Beheading Blade. Looks like quite the strong fighters are over there.” 

“Fumu…looks like they are also being guided as guests. Moreover, it seems that was the 2nd Gate.” 

“Oh my, to think they managed to reach the colosseum through fighting capability instead of a reward.” 

“That’s a bit of a shame as the ones seeing after Bir and his group.” 

It is rare to see the residents of the Mist Town show their surprise. 

From what he remembers, the most surprise he has seen was when he was a Ronin, when he was showing his longsword battle skills.

(No, there was most likely disappointment mixed there. I probably have not surprised them with pure admiration.) (Bir)

At any rate, not even the presence of that truly mysterious demonic beast that looked like a mantle or a membrane was present anymore. 

The Birgit members don’t seem to be able to get a grasp of the details of what’s happening, and yet, Jiel and the others were nodding to each other in amazement. 

The intricate network of the Mist Town -their information transmission technique- would always manage to surprise Bir. 

“May I?” (Git)

“Hm? What’s the matter, Git?” (Ronny)

Git had raised her hand timidly, and Ronny who was slightly spaced out looked back.

“According to what you said, at the place where that strange demonic beast was at, there’s people who have overcome the gate with their fighting ability?” (Git)

“Seems so. They overcame the first one with their legs, challenged the second one, and even when there was an intruder, they pushed them back without care. Moreover, the lives of the gatekeeper and the intruder seemed to be at risk here, so the higher ups came in to stop them.” (Ronny)

“!!” 

“They are apparently Tsige adventurers just like you guys.” (Lacy)

The Gorgon Lacy glanced at Akos and Ranai as she added this information.

Thinking about the fact that they have finally managed to cross the gate after their own abilities were judged objectively, there’s only one adventurer party who would be able to manage such outstanding actions.

But Bir didn’t want to admit it. 

He didn’t want to think that…there was still this much of a gap in their abilities. 

“Alpine… They are on that level, huh.” (Bir)

The adventurer party that they admire, and at the same time, want to be called their rivals. 

It seems like their backs were even further than Bir had expected.

“Who was the one that faced them in the 1st Gate?” 

“The al-emera, Heschung. The alcohol in his system from last night was apparently not gone yet.” 

“…Ema is going to get angry again. Most likely will be judged for not being able to show restraint.” 

“What about the 2nd one?” 

“The Mist Lizard Yusly.” 

“It is a hyuman adventurer party, right?” 

“It looks like there’s two hyumans, one dwarf, and one elf.” 

“The wild Levi had intruded there and the two fell?” 

““Levi?!””

The ones who showed clear confusion at this were Akos and Ranai.

It can’t be helped. 

A memory of them almost being killed without being able to fight back at all resurfaced in their mind.

“If we are talking about a strong party with that team composition in Tsige, there’s only Alpine.” (Ranai)

Ranai has placed the Neptunes as the wall she should overcome with her pride in her unique job, Oceans One, on the line. 

That’s why her tone wasn’t as vexed as the other 3.

“Yusly-san has high combat power, but I am surprised that the bunch managed to deal with that crazy ability called Wave Worship whatever. Even that Agares shouted ‘what the hell is that?!’ and was defeated by it the first time.” 

“But that’s what adventurers are best at, right? How to come back alive from unknown situations and danger. But their evolution is something that I think I have heard of before…” 

“We thought we had pulled a pretty good winning group though.” 

The group that just now passed the 2nd Gate through combat capability, and the Birgit party that crossed guided by Jiel and the others. 

It is because they managed to incapacitate a demonic beast that was rampaging in Asora, but Bir and his group just couldn’t openly be happy by this outcome. 

The 3 that are walking at the front are also the type that don’t mince their words, so Bir was growing smaller and smaller with the honest words coming out, but he was also incredibly interested in the Mist Town that had clearly changed once again.

Within that, Ranai was especially perking her ears to the conversations and not missing a single piece of information. 

There were even more varied races in sight now, and an arena-like building was visible in their eyes the whole time. 

It is not like they are going to go there and fight this instant, but when Bir thinks about how they will be going there, he felt excitement and a mysterious elation was covering his body. 

“Ooh, you are here already? We have brought the adventurers we reported about.” (Jiel)

Jiel spoke to the big framed orc that was standing at the entrance. 

At the same time, the Birgit party was shocked for who knows how many times today.

Beings like that Neptune Tuna were here as if it were natural. 

Even the orc that’s guarding the entrance is at the very least as strong as the Moon Grizzly, with clear intelligence, technique, and being a warrior that can use skills or magic, he might be even stronger. 

There’s quite the high chance that the Birgit party would fall from fighting even him alone.

“It seems like the plans have changed a bit. Not only them, but even the Lord has come.” 

““?!””

“?”

The words of the orc clearly shook Jiel and the others.

“I-I-I-It is not only Tomoe-sama and Mio-sama?!” (Lacy)

Lacy stuttered with unprecedented fluster. 

Even Akos who is apparently decently close to her had his eyes wide open at this, so Bir could tell this is quite the new sight for him too. 

Her suddenly fixing her appearance was like a young noble lady that had learned that her beloved had come. 

“Yes. Together with Shiki-sama and Tamaki-sama. They have said that the 3 that are guiding the Birgit party will accompany them as it is, and one of you will be serving as the main guide.” 

“Yes, I withdraw! I withdraw!” (Ronny)

Ronny flapped the white wings at his back and proclaimed this promptly while doing one step back.

This was also a rare reaction. It was clear that this wasn’t from rejection or negative emotions. 

The wingedkin young man that’s normally aloof was showing clear tension and respect towards someone. 

“Has the main guide been decided over there?” (Jiel)

Jiel was brushing his beard as he continued the conversation with the orc.

“They said Beren would be right for the job, so he has been called back hurriedly. They have crossed two gates on the very day they were invited after all. It seems there’s still no resident they are close with.” 

“No wonder then. I see… If Beren is going to be the guide for that Alpine party, I will also be withdrawing. I would feel bad for everyone if the two groups had elder dwarfs. Now then, Lacy, please do your job properly and make sure not to be rude.” (Jiel)

“Eeeeeeh?!” (Lacy)

“Tomoe…Mio? And there’s also Shiki…and Beren…?!” (Ranai)

Ranai reacted to a number of the names in the conversation and was shocked. 

Those are the names of the executives and employees of the Kuzunoha Company that give out a strong presence. 

In other words, this is proof that the rumors about the Mist Town and the Kuzunoha Company having a deep relationship are true. 

There’s no information as groundbreaking as this for the ones in favor or against the Kuzunoha Company.

The beauty Ranai has bad luck that’s comparable or even stronger than her greed and curiosity, so it couldn’t be helped that this situation would make her eyes shine. If she weren’t in the public eye, she would have begun singing and dancing in merriness. 

Since obtaining the rare healer job, Bishop Siesta, she hasn’t shown any changes and class ups for a while, but just recently she finally managed to grow into a unique job. 

This must be what’s called the limelight of life, is what she thought. 

It is also these kinds of times when dangers and pitfalls sneak their heads though…

The difference between Ranai and the female adventurer, who had wandered into these lands in the past, planned to escape after stealing, and died, is that the former one can calmly and objectively see what she can gain from her relationship with this place. 

There’s currently no benefit so big that would tip over the scales to the point of her cutting her relationship with the Mist Town. 

“Now then, guests of Tsige -the adventurer party, Birgit- and our brethren of the 3rd District; continue straight forward. Congratulations, guests. You people who have obtained a chance for an audience -which is something that some of us can’t get even when wishing for it- make sure not to show any rudeness to the personage that rules over these lands.” 

‘I will protect this place’.

Even though this place should be a safe place that enemies most likely don’t come, the morale of the armed orc was quite high, and was overflowing with fighting spirit. 

(In other words…inside here, there’s the lord of this land that has taken an interest in us, and the loyalty towards this person is quite high. Now then, what will be showing up here? I am already nervous to the limit and there’s no signs of the situation getting any better. There’s no other choice but to keep stacking the nervousness on top of nervousness, and enjoy the unknown territory that hyumans will be stepping onto for the first time.) (Bir)

Bir finishes taking a breath that’s not deep or shallow, yet is filled with emotions. 

He then raises his head and begins to walk through the corridor, towards the light that’s peeking at the other side.

  1. Thanks for chap
    its here ,its here,ITS HEEEEEEERRRRRRRREEEEEEEEE
    finally reveal the secret super hidden FINAL BOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

    so what’ll it be like?MC sitting on a throne with servants on both sides ? or him floating mid air with godly effects
    and wow how wil they react?

  3. Thanks for the chapter!

    This has the feeling of one of those shock reveals, when you enter the den of the final boss of the mystery organization, and suddenly discover the puppet master is someone closer to you than you’d ever imagined!

    I can’t recall the story that this feels like… a similarity to…

  6. I wonder what’s going on with the “heroes” and the Demon Kingdom. It’s been a while since that part of the story has been mentioned.

    1. While I would be fine seeing the demon kingdom again and what they’re up to, I would be happy if we never see those worthless excuses for heroes ever again and they end up dead offscreen from something stupid like slipping in the shower.

  7. At this point, I will not be surprised if 1000 years have passed already. All the side story and worldbuilding made me thinking, maybe the original author is dead and someone else are dragging the story to oblivion.

  9. How dumb is this group?! Makoto has shown that Tomoe, Mio and Shiki are super loyal to him and yet none is thinking the obvious, Makoto is the Lord of the Mist Town! Or am I missing something?

    1. They call him Waka which means young master. They would naturally assume that lord of mist town is Raidou’s father and their actual master.

  14. So looks like they’re finally gonna reveal who is behind Mist Town. I’m really hoping Mio has forced everyone to appear in Super Sentai poses as colored smoke shoots up behind them as they make their appearance. It’d be even funnier if she also managed to force them into Super Sentai costumes too.

    Well I’m not surprised that Toa and Alpine managed to arrive first given how strong they are. Meanwhile it sounds like the other residents of Asora are treating Levi like a Pokemon since they said a wild Levi appeared and barged in on Alpine’s fight. I guess that weird shroud-like thing Bir and his party saw that they think is a demonic beast is actually Makoto’s Magic Power Armor that he used to break up the fight since it sounded like Levi went on a rampage since they mentioned that the lives of the gatekeeper and Alpine were in danger.

  17. Hope the next one also comes from other POV
    I wanna know their reactions and how they view makoto as a lord
    Thanks for the chapters
    Also, good work on identifying each characters dialogue
    Must have been a real pain in the ass to address them with some of them being a new entry

  21. i think birgit team will be absorbed into Asora. didnt they planned to open Asora to capable and trustworthy hyumen in several chapter back?

  26. Thank for the chapters ^^

    “walk towards the light at the other side.”

    Ummmmm, That’s reaaaaaally a bad omen you know? XD

  31. Thx for the double chapters !!

    Argh… where the next button, such cliffhanger. Well, it always nice to see the scene when Asora residence shows us their love for Makoto as their ruler. Wow I know Alpine party just get their Job change not long ago but now they can pass 2 gates on the same day.

    Wait a minute, if Levi was the intruder in a fight between the lizardmen gatekeeper and Alpine, so who’s the demon beast in the sky that Bir saw near their fight?

    Man, I hope Reigokai-san give us a double chapter again in the next release of Tsukimichi. Since now it focuses on Mist Town again.

  33. Its definite they will loose consciousness because their common sense breaked down as they were shocked that such merchant is a king of thenland with much sought resources with super over powered military resource in the world…

  34. O.o ooo a flag. this surely a flag given author rubs the black history of mist town (asora).
    hope nothing bad happens.

    thank you for the translations~
    stay safe and healthy everyone!

  35. Thank you very much for the double chapter!

    So, from now on we focus on Asora/Tsige conection? Great!l to see!

    1. No reveal yet. But in the next couple of chapters, there’s gonna be a pillow-talk chapter about Makoto and Tomoe so look forward to it.

    1. Right, I really hope Makoto would transcend to godhood, those three gods said that Asora is connected to Makoto, so I have some concerns about the residents of Asora if he die

  38. Super confusing chapter. Prob cause I apparently can’t place even 1/3 of the names in this chapter to a character I remember.

    Good job with the chapters nonetheless!

    2. Birgit’s party has been mentioned a few time before. Jiel, Lacy & Ronny are all new though. Honestly we’ve only really been told a few names per Asora race (typically the leader and one or two others), like I’m pretty sure Eldo & Beren are the only elder dwalves which have ever been named before.

      1. If I’m not mistaken, Beside Eldo & Beren, there are another one of eldwa that his name mentioned. You know that weird eldwa who made Makoto’s jacket armour that can change colour from red to blue. The weird Eldwa name is Rugui. Though, his name mention in manga forgot if his name mention in WN or not.

  42. ohhhhh thank you very much for the double chapter

    Ohhh please author, let one of them laugh in Makoto’s face or spit in his face or better yet, attack him with the sword treacherously while makoto walk

    It’s been a long time since Makoto kills hyumans, please just ask that.

    1. The only thing that they could do at last could be laugh at Makoto ….Do you really think that they could even try the other two things before they get kill by Tomoe or Mio?

    2. Dude seriously, chill. Cool it with the bloodthirst. Almost every comment you post is about how you want Makoto to kill all the hyumans even if it wouldn’t make sense.

    3. That’s kinda cringe bro. You make it sound like Makoto is some kind of a generic overpowered wuxia protagonist.

    1. I didn’t expect they would show themselves so suddenly!!
      Will they introduce Makoto as the god that created that dimension?
      Will they reveal their true identities?
      A spider, a dragon, a corpse and a… spirit? Shikigami?

      2. Still wonder about Tamaki’s past and race… My guess she was Shikigami. since, after the pact, Makoto can communicate with objects like stone and that talkative Dragon Slayer Sword.

      3. Why they should do that ? There is not reason to reveals their true identities ,the only thing that they are showing is how Kuzunoha and the mist town are related . The question is if Makoto will tell them that the place where they are is Azora or not.

          1. If perhaps the only one who could show off his abilities would be Makoto, the 4 heavenly kings do not need it leaving aside that Tomoe and Mio are known as the strongest.

        2. To be precise is Tomoe as the superior dragon of the south, Shiki as the shikigami, Mio as the great darkness spirit, Tamaki as the Miko of the great Asora Shrine. In harsh terms the 4 heavenly kings, even the demon king zef who built the Demon kingdom was only a child compared to Great Emperor Raidou

          1. Misumi Makoto received legal permission from the gods and goddesses, quoted from Shiva’s words when Makoto reached its creator in the north of the demon race’s territory even mentioning it as being able to achieve it while still in a mortal state, it can be said that Makoto’s subordinates plan to gather faith to achieve glory and divinity so that Makoto reached the God race
