Chapter 2 Part 2
Now that I think about it, whats growing in that field?
After I got clothes, a moment of curiosity inspired me, so I decided to examine the property again. Id finished my spring break homework anyway. Furthermore, Id acquired by chance an amount of money that would normally take me years to earn.
Thats why I had so much free time. Importantly, Id be busy again when spring break was over. I left the house and went to check the field.
Oh Im not sure what kind of herbs or vegetables were planted here?
There were a lot of herbs there likely to be mistaken for weeds, as well as tomato-like and radish-like vegetables. Since the herbs grew in a neat line, I could tell they werent weeds.
Hmm? O-oh, so this was for watering it, huh?
A silver watering can was placed to the right, near the field. It already had water inside of it.
is it possible that this watering can is also something special?
I appraised it at once
[Infinite Watering Can] :: Watering Can which contains an infinite spring of water. The water inside is Holy Water, and even a dead or dying plant will quickly become healthy with this water. The water is always perfectly pure and drinkable, and upon imbibing, will not only recover fatigue throughout the body, but also increase magical power. Contractor: Tenjou Yuuya.
Turns out Im already used to this kind of thing.
Yeah, I predicted it. I completely predicted it would be something like this. I had already internalized how amazing this places original landlord was. The Wise Mans capabilities were far beyond my imagination. I felt doubtful that such a person had really died.
So? Whats this crop?
I went ahead and started appraising herbs.
[Complete Recovery Herb] :: Consuming this herb can cure all kinds of wounds and diseases, even if you are missing limbs or blinded. In addition, the herb can also function to restore magical power. When picked, it leaves seeds behind to quickly regrow. This herb exceeds any legendary-class herb.
Nope, I actually still havent gotten used to it.
I never thought the effect would be so incredible! This plant alone would put doctors completely out of business. At any rate, it was good to know that it was so easy to raise.
Well then, what else?
Still feeling a little nervous, I tried to appraise all the crops that were planted.
[Super Power Tomato] :: A tomato that can increase attack power when eaten. In addition, it will also increase physical strength and energy, and reduce fatigue. When picked, it leaves seeds behind to quickly regrow.
[Invincible Pumpkin] :: A pumpkin that can increase defenses when eaten. In addition, it also has the effect of improving mental stability, and makes one more resistant to mental attacks and debuffs. When picked, it leaves seeds behind to quickly regrow.
[Winter Radish of Wisdom] :: A winter radish that can increase intelligence when eaten. In addition, it makes you better able to cope with special mind enhancements such as parallel thinking and high-speed thinking. When picked, it leaves seeds behind to quickly regrow.
[Godspeed Potato] :: A potato that can increase agility when eaten. In addition, it also enhances visual acuity and perception. When picked, it leaves seeds behind to quickly regrow.
All right, theres a lot of things I want to say. These are definitely stat-boosting items! Just how high was the wise man aiming? And I dont know what it means for a plant to leave its seeds behind! Is it like picking the vines off a potato plant, or something different?
These fantastical vegetables wait, they just look like the vegetables I know.
Well, theyre edible, and above all, my stats will increase, so should I eat them?
In the first place, if I can eat them, my food costs can be reduced, so Id be grateful for that. Just as long as it doesnt have some kind of strange medicinal effects, that is.
What am I supposed to do its only morning and Im already tired.
It wasnt even noon yet, but my mental fatigue was already building up. Well, it cant be helped, I thought.
Immediately, I felt an intimidating pressure, like when I met the Bloody Ogre yesterday. As soon as I turned my eyes in that direction, I saw a pitch black slime-like object.
Whats that?
I appraised it instinctively:
[Hell Slime]
Level: 200
Magic: 5000
Attack: 1000
Defense: 5000
Agility: 100
Intelligence: 100
Luck: 100
Are you serious
Yesterday was a Bloody Ogre, now its a Hell Slime, huh? Well, no matter how I thought about it, this forest was definitely not a place for beginners, right? I mean, it makes sense, I dont think the Wise Man would have lived in some kind of beginners paradise.
However, I was strangely calm, even though it was supposedly the same pressure as the Bloody Ogre I met yesterday, if you count only its magic and defensive power. I certainly felt intimidated, but for some reason it wasnt as scary as yesterday. Im still scared, actually, but its not enough to turn my legs to jelly like last time.
Its not because my level is higher than yesterday, or because this hell slime is a lower level than the Bloody Ogre. I think its because my mental structure has changed since yesterday.
Im actually quite scared if Im being perfectly honest, but Im grateful to be able to think calmly now. As I focused on observing the Hell Slime, it was struggling to get inside this land like the Bloody Ogre did yesterday.
No, seriously, creatures in this world are too scary
Am I being too forgiving? If it finds a person, it might attack them with all its might, right? Am I just like that because Earth is too peaceful? [TLN: It seems he forgot that he constantly getting bullied xD.]
Well, whatever. I dont want to leave this land too much, but Id like to at least check the area around the house. So I wonder if fighting is really inevitable like in the current situation
Thinking that way, I took out the [Absolute Spear] from [Item Box].
Huh? I can just hold it normally
Whats this? I can hold the [Absolute Spear] with just one hand! Yes, I know it was actually normal, but still, it was amazing for me. I didnt think I could hold the spear with one hand, so I involuntarily swung the spear around on the spot. Then, although I only casually swung it around, somehow its weight was quite manageable.
Good grief, the benefit from leveling is incredible. If I knew about this, I wouldnt have bothered with muscle training like before
I felt like I was just flailing around since I didnt know how to use the spear properly. I wonder what would happen if I looked up how to use a spear in some book and learned from that?
It wouldnt be easy, and yet, thats the way for me to use this spear properly. Most of all, as a man, its a very attractive prospect Yup, I want to become stronger, little by little. [ED: Its a bit late for little by little my dude]
For that, I have to deal with this first.
I grabbed the spear again, and decided to throw it like yesterday, though last time couldnt even be called a throw.
I completely dispelled my hesitation, brandish the spear and threw it with one hand.
No way!?
Immediately, the spear flew at a faster speed than I could have imagined, and there was a hole in the body of the Hell Slime before I knew it.
My power seemed to have been even greater than I thought, and I never would have expected it to fly even faster than the person who threw it could see. As a matter of course, I was dumbfounded when the spear came back.
The Hell Slimes body quivered a little, like when the Bloody Ogre was defeated, and then it disappeared into particles of light. Once again, various objects appeared scattered where the creature was.
Lets pick those up.
It was still an unrealistic and bizarre situation, but I was curious about what dropped, so I immediately headed to the entrance. Wary of the surroundings, I quickly collected the dropped objects and appraised them.
[Hell Slime Core] :: The heart of the Hell Slime. Its filled with a huge amount of magical power, and can be used in the process of creating armor.
[Hell Slime Jelly] :: A coffee-flavored jelly. Consuming it can increase magical power and defence.
[Magic Stone: Rank C] :: A special ore that can be obtained from magical beasts.The most uptodat𝓮 n𝒐vels are published on n0velbj)n((.))co/m
Coffee jelly!?
Really, I didnt think anything was close to coffee jelly among the things that Id already gotten. On the contrary, it was a stat-boosting item, just like the crops of the field! There was also a magic stone this time, too. Is this another item that can be converted for a high price?
It would be a lie to say I didnt expect it. My life was tough, so I wanted money if I could get it. I didnt know how to use the Hell Slime Core, so I wanted to cash it in if I could. Ill just bring back the Hell Slime Jelly.
When I was appraising the items that dropped, I noticed I missed one.
Oh, there was one more thing.
It was a silver necklace, holding a fashionable crescent moon embedded with something like a black jewel.
No way, its an accessory!?
I dont know, since Im not familiar with games, but is it normal for these accessories to drop? Or was that Hell Slime wearing it? If so, it must have been a fashionable slime. When I thought about it, the Bloody Ogre also dropped armor and stuff. I was too stunned to think about it at the time, but it seems normal to not only get materials, but equipment as well.
For now, since it looked nothing like the other items I got from the Hell Slime, I appraised it.
[Black Moon Necklace] :: Rare drop from Hell Slimes. It can increase various stats if worn at night. It also collects sunlight and converts it into magic power, and constantly restores the wearers magic power. Contractor: Tenjou Yuuya.
It was a rare drop. Well, it didnt say anything about the slime being fashionable. Kind of disappointing. But the effect seems quite good. Even if its only at night, it can increase stats, and can also restore magic power. Though I dont know how to use magic power anyway. Since it was the first time I got a rare drop, and Id never worn a necklace before, I decided to try equipping it.
Does it look good on me?
I wasnt asking anyone in particular, but only said it involuntarily. It wouldnt have been very suitable for me a couple days ago, but now that Id lost a bit of weight, I wanted to believe it looked good on me.
A message appeared while I was distracted with that.
Level Up
You have acquired the skill [Presence Detection]
Huh.
No, wait a minute. Do I have to taste that severe pain again!? Its true that the opponents level was higher, and I can understand my level going up, but even if I recognize that, should I just accept it? I dont wanna!
I still wanted to escape from reality, even if temporarily, so I checked the skill.
[Presence Detection] :: Makes it possible for you to detect presences.
It was a very simple explanation. In other words, in a manga it would be something like, I know youre there! Im just happy that this one was normal. Like I said before, when I collect items, I have to leave this protected land, so this could reduce my risk during that window of time. Satisfied with the new skill, I finally moved on to checking my status.

It went up quite a bit.
Or rather, isnt everything just too good? Is that a thing? Well, whatever. Its fine, since its easy to think about.
Okay. So, time to allocate BP.
After thinking about it for a moment, I started spending BP. This was the result.

Title: [Master of The Door] [Master of The House] [Otherworlder] [Person Who Visited A Different World For The First Time]
Unlike last time, I didnt allocate BP into magic or intelligence. Instead, I allocated about 2000 to luck because there Id gotten something like a rare drop item just now.
Its pure speculation, but if my luck stat is high, I might get more of those rare drop items like before. And it kind of makes me happy to be lucky. Those were the mornings events, and by now it was noon, so I went back to my house at once.
Once I got into the house, a message displayed asking whether to cash in the items again or not, and I decided to cash in [Magic Stone: Rank C] and [Hell Slimes Core].
And then
[Hell Slimes Core] cashed in for 500,000 Yen. [Magic stone: Rank C] cashed in for 500,000 Yen.
So, I ended up getting a large sum of money again, a total of 1 million yen. It was almost bewildering to think that I got 2.5 million yen in just two days, but I managed to get back home to have lunch. In addition, I immediately tried using the ingredients I got from the field that morning.
The menu this time was Super Power Tomato salad, Invincible Pumpkin and Winter Radish of Wisdom boiled in soy sauce, and Meat and Godspeed Potato stew. All these dishes were made with Holy Water from the [Infinite Watering Can].
The idea for cooking these wasnt particularly different from tomatoes or potatoes from Earth, I was only nervous about the taste. However, that ended up being needless anxiety.
D-delicious!
It was surprisingly delicious. My cooking skills were average, so this flavor could only be coming from the quality of the ingredients themselves. After finishing the meal, I checked my status, and there were various changes.

Title: [Master of The Door] [Master of The House] [Otherworlder] [Person Who Visited A Different World For The First Time]
It really went up!?
My stat values had risen by 500. In addition, [Cooking] had been added to the skill list. The reason for my stats increasing and for me to gain skills was all because I ate the ingredients from different worlds. Somehow, the food ingredients of the other world are a cheat. Its so enviable. No wait, Im the one who got the benefit of it just now.
I thought about what happened before, and the fact Id gained the strength to handle those weapons. I decided to go to a nearby secondhand bookstore to find something about martial arts.
I didnt want to go to the library because there were a lot of people, and every time I went there, I only got an unpleasant gazes from the people there. Since the secondhand bookstore I was going to now was small, it was perfect for me, because there wouldnt be any people.
I finished preparing and left home immediately, going straight to the secondhand bookstore. There was no sign of people along the way, and even when I arrived at the bookstore, I was the only customer.
Hmm, where was the martial arts section again
Whoa, amazing
I eventually found the shelf I was looking for, with a huge amount of books on martial arts and the martial way. [1] On top of that, there were a wide variety of books, not only about standard swordsmanship, but also about the spearmanship and pole arts I wanted, and even sickle and chain arts and assassination techniques.
Where am I supposed to use assassination techniques!? Thats scary!
I didnt know if the library had these kinds of books, but at this rate, I was sure there were a lot of old books there. As I thought, I didnt have the confidence to buy or read everything, so when I was looking at the shelves, my eyes naturally stopped on some books.
These books were all about those scattered weapons and schools, and werent consolidated, but somehow my instinct seems to whisper to choose them. Was that the influence of the [True Martial Arts] skill? I wasnt sure, but it would be easy to buy a few books and go back, so I bought them without thinking too much about it and went home.
After that, I immediately read one of the books until I took a break for dinner, read it some more after dinner, and before I knew it, I got a new skill called [Fast Reading], and read the whole rest of the book. However, it was already late at night, so the actual battle would be tomorrow. After taking a bath, I prepared a futon and went to sleep.
And then I experienced that terrible pain again, and blacked out.
