Chapter 18
Chapter 18
Momo and I are walking the city again.
Due to yesterdays rain, theres a puddle here and there.
Doing my best to avoid them, Im looking for monsters.
The ideals are lone Goblin or lone zombie.
Two of them No, even three I should be able to deal with them using a quick combo with Momos Shadow.
The problem is when other monsters appear.
Especially Orcs.
After seeing the battle of yesterday, not only that High Orc, but also normal Orcs boast of quite the high ability.
I wish they had some weaknesses.
Even in fantasy, there are such weak points like fire against zombies or holy water against vampires. But Orcs does not have any of these weak points.
Their strong urges are heavy sexual desires, I can only think of a woman knight as a staple.
Well, if you meet one you have to run away or get past through.
At least forNow.
There are so many corpses..
Since they died they have been left unattended.
Theres no one to clean up.
Speaking of which, what is the government and Japan self-defense force doing right now?
Already two days had passed since the world became like this.
There should be rescue activities taking place in various areas I think, but in this situation where I cant use TV or the Net, I have no way to confirm.
More precisely, is the government even functioning properly in this situation.. ?
Before, when I watched that producers 1) movie, a special countermeasure office was set, and anyone, be it JSDF2) or various officials were put on the move.
Actually, is it possible for it to run like that now?
No, it might be the image I have of politicians and bureaucrats who are biased.
Something like that happened! Ill run away! Thats the kind of image I have, they would probably flee to the shelter or to a safety zone first, furthermore making wasteful usage of their authority.
Am I watching movies too much?
In the first place, did monsters only appear in Japan?
Or all around the world?
Im of the impression that monsters are everywhere in the world now.
Unexpectedly, there should be more people surviving in developing areas of the world.
SafetyandSurvivalare totally different things.
If youre a person already in a conflict zone, you probably wont be shaken even if a monster comes out?
They could even use nuclear weapons..
Even the citizens, they might be annihilated together with monsters..
Later in the news,They were precious sacrifices. We must carve their lives in our heart and we must live. could be reported like this.
Wow, thats some horrible thinking.
But Im still scared because I know there are countries capable of doing this.
After all, I should also gather information together when raising levels.
But, I cant use internet or TV.
To begin with, it really hurts me that theres no electricity.
Even if the water supply and gas are still usable, theres absolutely no electricity.
Is this only in this neighborhood, or everywhere?
If electricity can be used in other areas, I should head over there.
Once again, I can understand the blessings of civilization
Electricity is truly great.
Because its great, we depend on it.
For some of the all-electric houses in this area, it can already be considered hell. Theyd have to leave the house.
You can still use battery-powered appliances such as flashlight or alarm clock, but their numbers are quite limited.
Wan.
Oops.
While I was thinking, Momo barked.
Theres a goblin at the corner of my view.
Only one.
Lets aim for the right timing.
Yosh, Momo. Lets hunt.
Wan!
With a stealth approach so that it doesnt notice me, I swiftly stabbed it to death.
I was able to defeat it without a problem, but my level didnt rise.
How many hunts will I have to do until the next level?
After that, we walked around the city and hunted three more Zombies and two more Goblins.
Somehow, there are fewer encounters than yesterday..
Im not encountering a lot of living people either.
Because
There are many people who are unexpectedly staying at home.
When I was walking through the streets, I saw many people hanging flags and towels of SOS from the veranda of their apartments or from windows or porch of their houses. Theyre probably poised to hold a siege.
As the time goes by, the difference betweenRunning people,Fighting peopleandUnmoving people is clearly increasing.
But you know
If its a zombie, you may be able to hold him out until rescuers come.
But now the city is full of monsters actively hunting people.
Even if you hold a siege against such monsters, isnt it a meaningless way to answer?
Actually, when I got out yesterday, the Goblins were exploring the rooms of my apartment.
Well, if they have aJoborSkillsit is a different story..
For example, Shut-inwas one of the suitable jobs for me.
Its the type of job that exerts stronger powers by staying at a house rather than going out.
No, in the first place Im not a Shut-inbut.
Thats something Ill never choose.
Would there be a person foolish enough to kill a monster, raise his level for finally select the jobNEET3)?
There shouldnt be anyone obviously.
Well, basic skills right..
There seem to not be a lot of merits awarded to someone who just sits and wait for rescuers.
If it doesnt go well, youd have to defend yourself.
In this situation, its impossible.
Rather, its troublesome.
Im still thinking about my struggle to raise this level.
So, I decided to ignore any sign asking for rescue and went on.
Well, over there.
Pray forGood Peopleto appear before they get attacked by monsters.
After that, Momo and I kept hunting monsters.
Thus it happened when defeated two Goblins who wandered together.
The experience has reached a sufficient level.
Kudou Kazuto rose from level 5 to level 6.
Good. The announcement of the level-up sounds in my head.
After confirming that I received the usual 20 SP and 10JP.
My balance of JP is now 15.
The level of Spywill immediately be raised to ten.
Do you want to increase the LV of spy by consuming 10 JP?
Of course, I choose yes.
Then now.. What will happen?
The Spy job reached a sufficient level.
You can now select among the following advanced jobs or derived jobs.
The second job is unlocked.
