Chapter 10
Nap Attack Even During the Monster Invasion
“I’m gonna beat them up!” (Harumi)
Harumi, who punched the knight calling on [Blizzard], sprang out of the shop.
“Wait Harumi!” (Gin)
Gin cried out, but was too late to call off Harumi’s anger. His voice does not reach the Harumi whose sleep has been disturbed.
“How strong is Harumi-san?” (Maia)
Maia calmly looks to Gin for Harumi’s combat ability. Never has a low level criticized the Knights, knowing that monsters were coming. The outlook of Maia was that you had to have some skills to defeat the Knights.
“I do not know. But I think he is reliably strong.” (Gin)
“Is that so? If he has war potential, we will also face this soon!” (Maia)
“Yes!” (Gin)
As expected of the S ranking party [Blizzard]. Gin was pleased. The situation this town is in was unprecedented, but now he would be able to fight with this party.
“c.r.a.p, I lost ground to a man, but ‘m not defeated!” (Meer)
“…Yeah.” (Christa)
Meer, with her heart burning with rivalry towards Harumi, pulled the hand of Christa as they also sprung out of the store.
“Where to, [Cold Princess]?” (Meer)
“I don’t know yet. Maybe we’ll appear once the fighting becomes intense.” (Christa)
“Are you not staying here? I will go to the call?” (Gin)
Looking after Christa running out, Maia shook her head and answered Gin with a frown.
“Not here. Anyway, it is okay to definitely show up later.” (Maia)
If they partic.i.p.ate in the battle from the beginning there is no doubt it will clear up, but either way Gin ran with full force to the northern defense line. Going outside, everyone gazed upward at the monster-covered sky, though it was unnecessary.
“Hey this’s already impossible. This town is at its end.”
“Well… Don’t you remember why? The ratio at the time of the lizardmen was -” (「ああ…… リザードマンの時の比じゃねーぜ」)
The adventurers who readied their weapons on the Northern defense line were losing to the hordes of monsters. Strange sounds increased from the sky full of Condors, Harpies, and flying Dragons, while crowds of centaurs and ogres level the trees upon the ground. Everything is from [Shino Gra.s.sland], including several hundred bodies of the strongest species of Chimera.
With every demon fearing Makyou and Guranka.s.so (TL: The monsters from chapters 2 and 3, for some reason the MTL wanted “glue and Guranka.s.so” so I translated it to the name Rebirth uses for the Chimera) they had been quiet, but with the two strongest gone they had become lawless. Generally monsters are not expected to join hands to attack humans and others, but at this point they are a united faction. Perhaps it is because of the monster type. (モンスター故なのかもしれない。)
And the problem child who had caused this monster invasion arrived at the defensive line. He was not here to clean up the mess, but only with the anger that his sleep had been obstructed. The Nekomimi ‘girl’ with long black hair stepped between the line of adventurers to come out at the forefront. However, no one noticed until Harumi stood in front of the most skilled adventurers.
“Hey! Girl! Don’t you think that’s too close?!”
“Why is a kid in such a place like this? Hiding?!”
“You flies shut up. Would the uncles like to die?” (Harumi)
“ “ – tsu!?””
With Harumi’s voice full of murderous intent and using the skill [Intimidation], the adventurers felt a chill; furthermore, they froze when they saw his expression. It was the same look monsters gave their prey when it looks down on them.
“Yeah. Say silent alright? Because by mistake you may be killed together.” (Harumi)
While secretly checking his own status, Harumi thought about how he could destroy a large amount of monsters all at once. In fact, though he had sprung out here, he had no plan whatsoever. He would be fine if it was a one-to-one fight, but with a group battle he needed to use some tricks.
Before coming to this world Harumi had destroyed many groups of gangsters by taking advantage of the cheaters’ weaknesses. Though for these monsters the same hand would not be effective, so he peeks at his status screen.

“I don’t know.” (Harumi)
Despite his worries, he chose [beast magic] as his means of attack, which is the kind of magic monsters use. Putting it simply, the attack usually forms as breath. There are various types of breath, like a flamethrower, but Harumi thought to roll it all together into some kind of killing breath. (Maybe it can be activated simultaneously. I wonder if light and fire can be combined for an explosion?)
Inhaling a deep breath, he looks to the monsters coming from the North. Filling his lungs with air, he spat it out forcefully. Fired from Harumi’s mouth was an enormous lump of electricity, which flew in a straight line.
*Bachichichichichi* (SFX for crackling electricity)
The already considerable lightning strikes increased in size and speed. Inside the stupid ball of electricity with a diameter of 100 meters, the screaming monsters burned. The scene was an inferno of pandemonium. After a while the lightning sphere focused, burned the monsters to death, and scorched the ground black. And the sky that had been filled with monsters opened up.
““It’s a lie…right?””
The adventurers who saw this opened their mouth to the extent that saliva fell, and their eyes bugged out so much that tears formed. It is beyond saying it is jaw-dropping. The brain which sees such a thing would have trouble accepting the fact without deflating.
『Harumi Makura subdued Death Condor, harpies, centaurs, ogre, etc. 』
『Harumi Makura leveled up! 』
『 Harumi Makura obtained the t.i.tle [Thunder Emperor]. Revision attached to Status. 』
『Harumi Makura acquired skill [Simultaneous Movement] [Magic Fusion] [Beast Lightning Magic] 』
“Hu e!?” (Harumi)
Harumi was surprised at his first time hearing the voice, as he had no memory of it while he had been sleeping. It is normal for his first time hearing it. When he looked at his status screen he was surprised to see that [Simultaneous Movement] [Magic Fusion] and [Beast Lightning Magic] had been added.
“Whoops.” He was pleased for a fleeting moment.
Still, with only a single blow, only part of the attacking monsters had been defeated. The sky which had been opened was again closed by hordes of monsters.
