An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being Chapter 135

Episode 135: The changing world (Third Party Perspective)

“What!? It's another Stampede!?”

“Yes, this time it's Osaka.”

“Damnit.”

 In a room at the Prime Minister's official residence, Nakatsugawa Satoshi hears a report that another Stampede has occured in another dungeon and curses.

 It's not surprising.

 Dungeons around the world are now Stampeding one after another. When this global Stampede started, there were at most four or five dungeons per country, and it would end once the dungeons were suppressed. However, after that, more Stampeding dungeons appeared, and their frequency increased, and now four or five dungeons were constantly triggering overlapping Stampedes.

 Japan is no exception, at first there were two Stampedes, Beast Dungeon, and Forest Dungeon, then several other dungeons, when one ends, another dungeon is about to trigger a Stampede.

 Now, aside from the Explorers' Union, even the SDF and the police, who are awakened as explorers, are mobilized to carry out suppression work and evacuation work, but the damage has gradually begun to spread to the general public.

“At the moment, the number of explorers is overwhelmingly insufficient.”

“Yes.”

 Nakatsugawa replies vaguely to his subordinate's words, rests his elbows on his desk and folds his hands in front of his mouth.

“Prime Minister, this is no time to just be troubled.”

“I know!! Please be quiet!!”

 Nakatsugawa raises his voice in frustration at his subordinate who presses him to make a decision without knowing what he was thinking.

 Such a thing is already known by Nakatsugawa.

 Not enough hands, not enough time.

 Honestly, if it happens so frequently, it's completely out of control.

 However, there is only one way to make up for it.

 It is to awaken explorers who have not yet become explorers.

 In other words, people over 16 years old who haven't taken the current explorer aptitude test are forced to take the test, and people who have the aptitude become explorers, normally you can't dive into a dungeon and become an explorer unless you are 16 years or older, but by lowering the qualification age, that is, awakening minors under the age of 16 who haven't awakened yet and turn them into explorers.

 However, it's an act of sending those who don't want to fight and those who are still young to their deaths.

 The situation is irreplaceable, but even at this point, Nakatsugawa still hasn't made up his mind.

 Nakatsugawa frantically thinks about other solutions, but he can't come up with any good ideas.

 Only the sound of the installed clock reverberates in the room, and only time passes by mercilessly.

“Prime Minister …”

“Haa … okay … I'm going to call an emergency parliament. Send the instructions.”

 Nakatsugawa lets out a sigh and nods at the voice of his subordinate who presses him to make a decision again, and gives instructions to his subordinate.

 He doesn't have time to worry anymore.

“Yes!!”

 The subordinate who receives the instructions turns on their heels from in front of Nakatsugawa and briskly leaves to arrange communication with various places.

“I'm sorry, boys and girls who have to bear the future for those who don't want to fight. Adults just don't have enough power.”

 Nakatsugawa murmurs as if repenting.

 He doesn't want unwilling people or children to do such a dangerous thing. However, in order to become an explorer, you need aptitude, and without it you cannot compete with monsters who have inhuman powers.

 He can't afford to let them do any more damage.

 It was a difficult decision for Nakatsugawa.

 On this day, a law was promulgated.

 That is, the Explorer Mobilization Law.

 ・ If the government determines that it is an emergency, citizens who have not currently been tested, including those who have not reached the eligibility age, will be asked to undergo an aptitude test to confirm their aptitude as an investigator.

 ・ If they have the explorer aptitude, immediately learn skills as an explorer at a designated organization and improve their combat ability.

 ・ Citizens over the age of 12 should be obligated to participate in combat in emergencies such as Stampedes if they have explorer aptitude.

 ・ If they try to flee the country or neglect their obligations, they will be subject to appropriate penalties.

 It is an emergency law with these four main points.

 This law, which awakens the apt citizens as explorers and forces them to participate in battle, doesn't care about the apt citizens at all.

 Similar laws have already been passed in countries other than Japan, and qualified people around the world were forced into similar situations. Some of them have already lost their lives.

 Humans on Earth were gradually being cornered.

 And in this situation, not only Fuhito, but also Nanami, the younger sister of Fuhito, will be involved as one of those explorers.

 Thus signifying the end of Fuhito's normal daily life.
