The Hero Who Returned Remains the Strongest in the Modern World - Chapter 14

Chapter 14

“It may be suddenly, but I have a question.”

“A question?”

“It’s about the status window, however…”

The status window has such a simple design that somebody who has played games can easily understand just by tampering with it a bit.

That’s why at that earlier time I stopped explaining mid-way and returned home…

By the way, today’s dinner it was mom’s curry so I had to be home at 20:00, no matter what. My mother doesn’t give the food if you break the curfew…

And, leaving that aside…

“Is there something you don’t understand? You’ve played games, right?”

“Rather, I’m a gamer who’s played retro-games, so what?”

“Then, why aren’t you able to understand?”

“I don’t understand about the skill obtainment.”

“You obtain skill points by leveling up from defeating monsters and then you pick skills and strengthen them up, right?”

“No, it’s different. I don’t understand what’s good to pick. There’s a theory about this, right? I’m talking about efficiency in games, okay?”

Aah, that’s right.

There are few games where you can obtain skill points infinitely, since you can’t virtually obtain limitless points.

So you become careful in using them.

“How about enemy sensing?”

“Enemy sense?”

“First of all… I don’t understand it well however, Abeno-senpai for the past few days has been searching and killing the ghosts and monsters which have been appearing, am I wrong?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“So that’s why you’re competing in the hunt with your relatives for the inheritance struggle or something, right? In that case, is it not better to immediately sense where the enemy is? And the enemy sense is the most basic skill and its versatility is also high. I also have it.”

“I understand. First, I’ll take enemy sense and strengthen with my skill points.”

When your level increases by 1 you get 10 skill points.

You spend 5 for obtaining a skill, strengthening it from level 1 to 2 takes 2 points, and to increase the skill level from 2 takes 5 points so the need of points increases.

By the way for when the skill reaches a level higher than 5, frequency of usage will also be required for it go higher according to its corresponding level.

And after that it doesn’t go any higher.

In other words, it’s easy getting it up to level 5.

“I took it however, you’re amazing, Morishita-kun. If I say it frankly… You startled me.”

“Why, though?”

“You’ve become able to understand the general idea of what’s happening in my family.”

“If you’re interested in it, then I understand everything in a radius of 2km around me.”

“The different world sure is amazing.”

“You should put me there too, since I’m a fellow who’s able to disrupt the terrain.”

“…I see. Oh my, it has already become this late. I’ll tamper with the status window for a little bit more and then sleep. Well then, good nigh-”

“By the way, senpai?”

“What could it be?”

“I’m not actually expecting anything from you for teaching you or for pulling the orc to reality however…”

“What could it be that you’re trying to imply?”

“Put in short… Wouldn’t it be fine if there was something?”

I don’t want others to know I’m an irregular to the utmost.

Practically, I’ve taken risks, too.

I’m on the knife’s edge from making sure that there were two worlds and I’ve done a lot of things and saved Abeno-senpai from her trouble.

Even without saying the truth, I also had methods to cheat at that time.

But, I didn’t do that. Being called bastard and other insults, honestly… I don’t feel good about it.

As expected, I have no other choice but to tell her specifically.

I heard a long sigh from the other side.

“Hey, Morishita-kun?”

“What is it?”

“I like games, you know. In the past… There was a game where you hunted monster-like animals and collected them while running around a star near its end from meteorite collision. Its setting was in the near future… First of all, humans have migrated to another star and then collect the female and male monster-like animals from the star which was nearing it’s ruination… It had such a setting.”

“Okay, so?”

“It was a setting where if they couldn’t be caught you would kill them with small arms. Basically it’s hand-to-hand combat. I would process the animals to make weapons, food and then sell them at the town. The animals that were recognized as rare couldn’t be sold at the town however… I sold them normally at the underground market, and you were able to process different things from the bellies of the animals.”

“It’s a very horror-like game.”

“That’s right. And animals with low number can’t be caught, so you send a set male and female of the animal to an institution where they are given heavy doses of aphrodisiacs for mandatory breeding. If the season passes and the breeding is successful then their number will increase… That’s the sort of feeling…”

“So? What are you trying to say?”

“I found an super-rare animal… There were a kind grandpa and grandma living near the protagonist however, it was an animal in human disguise. In the game’s end stage they surrendered with “It’s okay if we get caught by you whom we’ve known since you were little. You can take us.”.”

“It’s a nice story, is it not?”

“That’s correct. And then I immediately sent the old married couple to the facility where they inject aphrodisiacs for forced breeding. It was quickly decided.”

“Oi, that’s harsh!”

“And then the season passed… and their numbers have splendidly increased.”

“The eldery couple have been hard at it!”

“Basically, I’m that kind of woman.”

“What kind of woman!”

“A fox who won’t play obediently.”

“As a result… The old married couple were sent to the facility where they inject aphrodisiacs for forced breeding?”

“Basically, Morishita-kun.”

“What is it? Abeno-senpai?”

“I’ll never obediently say my gratitude. Aah, that’s right, there is a hunt 2 days from now so there won’t be any calls then. However have relief, I am able to call you tomorrow at 11:30. Well then, good night.”

Next day.

Unusually nothing happened at school and the day passed in harmony.

And then I had my mother’s dinner, took a bath and then dozed off while watching the news…

And when I woke up it was 11:55.

11:30 has passed… and I quickly headed to my phone that was charging and took it.

“As I predicted… It has become terrible.”

I stared at the phone with a serious expression.

Calls 184, answering message 3

For the time, since I had nothing to do I played the answering messages.

“Hello? It’s me… Kaguya. Currently, I’m walking in the shopping district.”

Let’s hear the next one.

“Hello? It’s me… Kaguya. Currently, I’m walking in the forest park.”

And the another.

“Hello? It’s me… Kaguya. Right now, I had just passed the police station in front of the train station.”

This is… I don’t know what to say.

She was definitely approaching my house.

Rather, isn’t this completely like a horror!?

And the ringtone played.

I went to the entrance and put my phone in call mode.

“Hello, It’s me… Kaguya. Right now, I’m in front of your house.”

I cut the call and and opened the door.

“Why did you come to my house…?”

Abeno-senpai while having teary face and having hoarse voice talked.

“B-Because… The calls weren’t connecting through!”

And then Abeno-senpai scolded me for about 30 minutes at the nearest park.

I don’t even understand why I’m being lectured for.

Rather, putting it honestly I don’t even know the meaning of what has occurred.

【Skill：Mental attack negation has activated】

Honestly, if god’s voice didn’t activate I might’ve gone crazy.

Rather, skill of the negation tree… I think it has activated it just at the best moment.

Well, thanks to the negation skill there’s no damage.

And, finally, tomorrow is the day for Abeno-senpai’s great family event at night.

And relatively, I’ll secretly take the guest seat of the event and spectate, that’s the setting.
