As Long as You Have the [Shop] Skill, the Dungeonized World Is a Breeze ~The Bullied Youth’s Payback Lifestyle~ - Chapter 254

Chapter 254 – Moving 

“Then here we go! Old geezer, you better put your all into this too!” (Oremia)
As Oremia got fired up, a light began to glow and expand from out of his body, much like the <Aura of Gluttony> that he had used before.

The light wrapped up Belzedor and even the jungle that was spread around him.

At that very moment, Belzedor let out a low roar. The forest that was spreading and encroaching on its surroundings began to recede inwards, as if it were being sucked in by Belzedor.

“Wooow~! The forest is disappearing!” (Sol)
Sol chirped and flew about happily.

But I was curious about what would happen to the monsters that were inhabiting the jungle.

When I looked closer, I saw that the monsters were also being absorbed into the forest.

“Incredible…” (Bouchi)

It was an overwhelming sight to see such a large forest being sucked in like this. In the span of a few minutes, the jungle that was over several kilometers in radius had disappeared altogether.

Once it was all over, Oremia came over to where we were watching.

“Alright. It’s all good now, right Bouchi?” (Oremia)
“Yeah, thanks.” (Bouchi)
That being said, all of this was their fault in the first place. But in the end, I was just thankful that they had actually listened to me.

“But if left alone, will the encroachment start again?” (Bouchi)
“Fuuuhohoho. As long as Oremia is safe, there will be no problems.” (Belzedor)
According to Belzedor, the cause of the encroachment was Oremia’s weakening when he was trapped in the ice. Apparently, even if they were apart, as long as Oremia had enough strength, the encroachment would stay stopped.

It made sense now. Oremia had almost been killed by Galafegorn, so his ability to stop the encroachment was greatly weakened.

“Then that means that as long as Oremia doesn’t die, the encroachment won’t happen anymore?” (Bouchi)
“Indeed, that is quite so.” (Belzedor)

However, there was still something I had to confirm.

“Hey, Belzedor. Actually, you too, Oremia. You two have been transported to another world. What are you going to do now in this world? Do you want to return to your previous world?” (Bouchi)
If they felt like it, they could easily destroy Japan, or even the entire world. That was why I had to make sure. Would they be a friend or foe? Or something else?

“Hmm. I have already fulfilled my duty in the other world. I do not feel any desire to return. Besides, as long as Oremia is by my side, I do not care which world we are in. I do not wish to run rampant like before. I am past doing that already.” (Belzedor)
“…And you, Oremia?” (Bouchi)
“Me? It’s obvious, isn’t it? As a man, I gotta aim to be number one!” (Oremia)
“…..What?” (Bouchi)
What in the world is this guy even saying…

“Listen up, Bouchi. To me, life is all about finding a good fight! I will aim for the peak in a real, honest battle! That’s what a man does! Wahahahaah!” (Oremia)
Ah… Come to think of it, that’s the kind of guy he was, huh…?

“So you’re just going to go wild at random?” (Bouchi)
“Hah? Oi, oi, you fool! Don’t think of me as some second-rate fighter!” (Oremia)

No, what do you even mean by ‘fighter’…?

“I’m top-class, alright? There’s no point in fighting with small fries. It’s all about going toe-to-toe with the strongest and beating them! That way, I can prove I’m the best under the heavens! Oh yeah, what about Kaza over there? You’re giving off a pretty good vibe. How about it having a go with me? It’ll feel good, you know?” (Oremia)
If you took the last few sentences out of context, it would sound like he was a scumbag pickup artist.

“Hm. I also find the prospect of crossing blades with Oremia to be quite interesting.” (Kaza)
“Oooh! Seriously?! Then let’s go!” (Oremia)
“Wait, Oremia.” (Bouchi)
“What is it, Bouchi?! Don’t try to stop me! My soul is already ablaze!” (Oremia)
Agh, this guy is way too fired up…

“I’m not telling you to not fight. But if you go on a rampage here, you’ll end up destroying the city that we just saved from the jungle. If you’re going to fight, do it somewhere else.” (Bouchi)
Kaza looked fired up too, and it didn’t look like it was going to be a fight to the death. If it was a mock battle, it would be fine. The only problem was that if A-Rank and above monsters started to duke it out here, it would cause this entire area to become a vacant plot of land.

“Then where would be better?” (Oremia)
….Now that it’s come to this, do I have to prepare a large plot of land somewhere? If possible, I wanted to find a place where it would affect the surroundings as little as possible.

“I’ll prepare a place for you later. I have a proposal for you, Belzedor.” (Bouchi)
“Hm? What is it?” (Belzedor)
“Are you willing to move?” (Bouchi)
“Move, you say?” (Belzedor)
“Yeah. There are many humans still living here, and there’s no guarantee that the encroachment won’t occur again. Besides, there’s also a good chance that humans may come to bother you out of curiosity or even come to harm you.” (Bouchi)
If that happened, Belzedor would get angry, and I would have to intervene again. I wanted to avoid that altogether if possible.

“I do not care where it is that I live. As long as Oremia is in the same world, then it is fine.” (Belzedor)
“That’s no problem. Oremia, you don’t have any complaints with this, do you?” (Bouchi)
“It’s fine if the old geezer chooses so. But if anyone wants to take away my freedom, I won’t show any mercy.” (Oremia)
I let out a sigh of relief, having received their confirmation that they were willing to move. After telling them to wait here for a moment, I took out a [Teleportation Crystal] and teleported away.

I appeared again over the ocean, surrounded only by the horizon off in the distance.

I immediately purchased something from the <Shop> and took it out from the <Box>. At that moment, a large island appeared out of thin air.
