An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being Chapter 159

Episode 159: There is no end

 We've been defeating them since a little while ago, but the monsters keep coming ashore one after another and there's no end to them.

“Nanami!! Can you do a big one like before?”

“How big?”

“The one with the highest power and the one that seems to be able to annihilate the enemy.”

“Okay!! I'll try it!! Give me 30 seconds!!”

“Roger!!”

 With my instructions, Nanami starts chanting magic that can still be interrupted.

“Alright, don't let even one of them get close to Nanami!!”

“”Roger!!””

 For 30 seconds, we single-mindedly annihilate the enemy.

 Actually, it's a secret that Luck is quietly collecting magic stones. I'll divide them into five equal parts adn distribute them later. It's an amount that I don't know how many there are, so everyone's pockets will be loaded.

“Onii-chan!! Back away!!”

 While I am frantically defeating the enemies, I hear Nanami's voice behind me.

“Okay!! Everyone fall back!!”

“”Roger.””

 We hit several nearby monsters to make them disappear, and retreat behind us where Nanami is.

“Shining Executioner!!”

 Nanami holds up her wand and chants the spell's name.

 Light gathers at a short distance from the tip of the wand, and it grows bigger and bigger.

 When it's size exceeds several meters, it gradually rises into the sky, flying toward the center of the monsters and growing even larger.

 And then, the next moment when it reaches the brighness and size that could be mistaken for a sun, pure white flames rain down on the monsters.

-Bashuuu

 All the monsters that touch the pure white flames drop a magic stone and disappear. After a few minutes, I realize that the monsters in front of us have disappeared.

 I think she probably wiped out a few thousand with a single blow. That Nanami has really learned magic …

 Well, I'm the one who found that magic book and made Nanami use it, so it must be my responsibility. It's my fault.

“Is it settled?”

“What do you think.”

“Hmm.”

 Nanami mutters after annihilating the enemy. I shrug and Shia nods her head.

“What was that? I don't think even an SSS-rank explorer can do that!!”

“Really ~ .”

“Ah, Rei, don't escape from reality …”

 Amane and Rei are such good friends. They're doing some sort of comedy.

 However, while we are resting and looking at the sea for a while, it seems that there are still monsters left, and they poke their heads out of the sea and rush towards land.

 Just how many monsters overflowed?

 It is conceivable that they have accumulated for a long time in the sea. All the monsters that had accumulated may have come to Japan.

“Wow, it looks bigger than the usual Stampede.”

“Hmm.”

 Shia nods at my mutter.

 Both the Stampede at ESJ and the Stampede at the Forest Dungeon ended after defeating a few thousand monsters, but despite having already killed a similar amount of enemies, the monster invasion doesn't seem to have stopped.

“Nanami. How many shots can you do like before?”

“Hmm. For the time being, maybe one more shot still.”

“Is it like that because it's so powerful after all?”

 Nanami's answer to my question convinces me.

 Even though it is a low-rank magic, it's quite powerful. It's true that I don't understand whey it uses that much magical power. I don't know how many more monsters there are, so it's a bad idea to use all of her magic power.

“For the time being, the magic just now is sealed. Just like before, you can use other magic to annihilate them.”

“I understand.”

 In response to my instructions, Nanami nods with a serious expression instead of her usual cheerful smile.

“I wonder how many monsters there are.”

 I murmur while watching the monsters rush in again.

“I don't know. But the fact that so many monsters appear means that there must be dungeons in the sea.”

“I guess that's what it is.”

 I nod to the assumption Rei mutters after shaking her head.

“Monsters began appearing in the sea after the dungeons were created, but the existence of a dungeon hasn't been confirmed until now.”

 Certainly, as Rei says, I haven't heard of anyone finding a dungeon in the sea.

 However, it seems that the main reason for this is that monsters have appeared in the sea, and the investigation has not been completed properly. This is because vehicles such as ships and submarines are easily destroyed.

 It would have been nice to have made ships and submarines out of dungeon materials such as Mithril, but it would require an enormous amount of materials, and of course, buying those materials would cost a huge amount of money, even if you get them yourself, you will still need a huge amount of money. In addition, processing and ship construction cost an outrageous amount of money, and it seems impossible to do it with the current budget, so they haven't been able to investigate.

“But if you look at this number of monsters, you'll know there's a dungeon nearby, right?”

“That's right. Once this case is over, a full-scale investigation may begin. Besides, if we're found by the Emergency Response Department, maybe there will be people who want to talk to us, too?”

“Hey. I'll run into the shadows before I'm found.”

 Rei expresses her thoughts on my question. I shiver because I don't want to deal with those dubious people called the Emergency Response Department.

“Seriously … Leave it to this Onee-san. I'll take care of it.”

 Rei, who is watching me with an expression like, it can't be helped, gives me an exasperated look as she agrees to take care of it for me.

“Thank you. Rei is really reliable.”

“I, it's not something that great.”

 When I thank her while laughing, she shyly fiddles with her hair and turns away.

 The embarrassed Rei is cute.

 Aside from that, the monsters are approaching again.

 This is the end of the break.

“Well, shall we get back to it?”

“Y, yeah.”

 We start exterminating the monsters again.
