Chapter 168

(168) Battle where death is not an option

Translator: Tseirp

I was with Carol at the beach.

After this, we would ride the ship and sail for the mainland. However, before that, I must defeat the resurrected monster.

After all, I have been in Sheenas care, albeit only for a short time. I have to return the favor for letting us stay the night and treating us to a meal.

Its all right. I have put in my utmost effort to train these 2 days.

Even though its only been 2 days worth of training, I have my ability from the two blessings bestowed upon me that allows me to grow at 400 times the speed. Furthermore, I trained 5 jobs at the same time. Although, Jobless was fixed so it was 4 jobs in actual fact. In other words, I trained at 1600 times the speed.

My hard work for 2 days was equally effective as training for 10 years. Moreover, with Sheena No.3s support, I hunted monsters at an extraordinary rate. Further furthermore, adding up all the status of my 4 jobs, my hunting strength was 4 times more than an ordinary person.

Dont worry, Ive become stronger.

The

current I is absolutely strong. The current I shouldnt have any monsters that I cant defeat.

I convinced myself so but I could not stop the trembling in my feet.

Ichino-sama, are you nervous?

Only a little Its a monster that the Demon Lord couldnt defeat after all? I was wondering if I could actually defeat something like that. Perhaps I wont be able to defeat it after all.

I see its certainly possible that you cant defeat it.

Carol said with a smile.

Eh? She affirmed it?

I wanted you to deny it there.

Ichino-sama, Carol doesnt want to die. Ichino-sama said it to me. That Carol has the right to live a happy life.

Im sorry for dragging you in this, Carol. However, if it becomes dangerous you can escape into My World so

Ichino-sama must come too. If Ichino-sama dies, Carol would not be able to exit from Ichino-samas world. I will have to spend my life together with Pionisan and Fuyun until I die.

Thats true I definitely cant die I will definitely send Carol no matter what happens.

Did that dispel your nervousness?

Carol said as

as she gripped my hand.

Perhaps Ichino-sama considered the possibility of your death but if you really did die, Carol will be sad. Haru-san will be sad and Malinsan will be sad too. Ichino-sama must definitely survive. So, like I said in the beginning, please escape if you think it is dangerous.

And leave Sheena to die?

It is not set in stone that Sheena will really die if you do not defeat the monster. Sheena only predicted that the monster will attack the island.

Carol said so. That train of thought was well past optimistic thinking and had entered the realm of an impossible future.

However, thats right. What Carol said was true.

If I weigh Sheena and Carols importance, even though I know that I shouldnt do something like that, I want Carol to survive. After all, she has entrusted her life to me at this moment.

Not only Carol. I do not know what will happen to Haru who has become my slave once I die. The same goes for Malina.

Thats right, I cant die yet.

Yes, please live, Ichino-sama. Ichino-sama might feel that you have to hold responsibility for Carol and the others but please do not forget

not forget that Ichino-sama has the right to chase after happiness as well.

Carol, thats a big misunderstanding My World!

I said as I opened the door to my own world.

After all, Haru, Malina and Carol I was able to meet you all. Im already seriously happy.

I said and entered My World where I became astonished.

Thank you for waiting, master.

Pionia graciously greeted me with a bow.

I had entrusted Pionia to construct a ship.

I was sure that it would be nothing more than something like a canoe. However sitting there was something different entirely.

Pionia, what in the world is this

The ship I could only make two boats though.

Rather than 2 boats, its more like 2 ships.(TL: Pionia used the counter for small boats while Ichino corrected her with the counter for large boats)

Sitting there were large sailing ships.

Just how in the world what did you use for nails and such.

I couldnt create a mine but I was able to create a small mining vein so I mined iron ores from it we had plenty of lumber so it ended up like ended up like this however, I used up most of my magical power master, could I request for magical power supplement? Im already close to my limit.

Pionia, what is your opinion if I die?

If master dies now, Master Carol will become my new master. I will request for magical power from Master Carol.

Haha, youre quite realistic.

Im a homunculus after all.

While Pionia said that, she looked like she suddenly thought of something and added on. Her actions were way too human-like.

If master is going to die, please supply your magical power before that happens. Masters magical power is extremely delicious so Id like it if you provide it to me while you are still alive.

I see, sorry but I wont be supplying you with magical power I kind of have a fight waiting for me in a bit.

I see. Thats unfortunate. Then I shall standby here, please do not die.

Pionia said. Is it possible that despite how she looks, she is a Tsundere? I thought to myself.

Now then

I thought as I looked at the magnificent sailing ships.

How do I send these out from here?
