An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being Chapter 178

Episode 178: Nanami's battle (Third Party Perspective)

 

“I'm home ~ .”

 

 

 Hitomi is watching TV when Nanami enters the house and looks into the living room. On the screen, yesterday's incident is being reported as news.

 

 

 A reporter in the area reports the damage to the town, and the screen shows collapsed buildings. There have been several deaths and injuries, and reporters are also talking about it with a tense look.

 

 

 By asking the residents, they know that the monsters that appeared in the town appeared from the sea and invaded the town, but suddenly a huge wall was created between the sea and the town, preventing the monsters from entering. They don't know what the beach looked like after that.

 

 

 Since then, they haven't been able to confirm any invasion of monsters from the sea, and there was a flashy sound, so someone in the Emergency Dispatch Department was probably fighting the advancing monsters inside the wall. Local residents speculated as such.

 

 

 Fortunately, it wasn't leaked to the outside that Fuhito and the others fought and annihilated the Macho Mermen. Since the people at Spa Emotional were also deeply grateful to Fuhito and the others, they refused any kind of interview and information hasn't escaped from Spa Emotional. Of course, it was thanks to Rei's mental ability.

 

 

 However, the Emergency Response Department has announced that they are doing their best to defeat the monsters that have invaded the city and have not done anything about the sea, so the studio is wondering who killed the large number of monsters, such a thing is being discussed.

 

 

“Oh, welcome back. … Aren't you some how very glossy?”

 

 

 Rather than worrying about her daughter, what she noticed first is her glossy skin and her face, which has become even cuter.

 

 

 She heard she was caught in a monster invasion, but she kept in touch, and her mother is gradually getting used to it because it has happened so many times, Hitomi is.

 

 

“Yeah. The SpaEmo treatment was amazing!!”

 

“If it changes a person so much, I'd like to go too. I've been worrying about my wrinkles lately.”

 

 

 When Nanami answers, Hitomi mutters earnestly while touching around her eyes.

 

 

 For her, who has given birth to and raised two children, and has reached a certain age, it is a very important worry.(TN:Guess they actually ARE siblings then.)

 

 

“Well then, I got this from a SpaEmo person, so I'll give it to you.”

 

 

 Nanami takes out two tickets from her bag and holds them out in front of her eyes.

 

 

“This is?”

 

“A three-day all-you-can-use ticket for SpaEmo's facilities and services, and a ticket for two nights and three days at the hotel next door. If you let them know in advance, they can handle it.”

 

 

 Nanami smiles at Hitomi who asks curiously and tells her the identity of the tickets.

 

 

“Haa … You guys are really filial children.”

 

 

 Hearing that, Hitomi lets out a sigh, and she gives a troubled smile.

 

 

“Ah, well!! We went alone this time. When I was worrying that only my mother couldn't go, a SpaEmo person gave them to me. Oh, and this is a souvenir.”

 

 

 Nanami smiles smugly and hands over sweets as a souvenir.

 

 

“Fufufu. Shall we drink some tea with that souvenir? Wash your hands.”

 

“Yes!!”

 

 

 Hitomi smiles happily and gives Nanami instructions, and Nanami follows her instructions, goes to wash her hands, and then takes out the items she had bought in her room and returns to the living room.

 

 

 Hitomi has just finished making the tea and arranging it on the table, and she is opening the souvenir. Nanami sits down on a chair at the table.

 

 

“Here you go.”

 

“Yes.”

 

 

 Nanami takes one from the souvenir box presented to her.

 

 

“Anyway, Nanami and the others were involved in that, but were you all right?”

 

“Huh? Yeah, I fought a lot of monsters, but I had Onii-chan, so everything was fine, right?”

 

 

 Hitomi asks while pointing at the fairly terrible situation in the city, but Nanami answers with a nonchalant expression.

 

 

 Nanami doesn't have the impression that she fought strong monsters, but she was actually fighting B-rank monsters. It was originally a horde of monsters that could be subjugated by multiple C-rank explorers, or by a single B-rank or higher explorer.

 

 

 That's also why the town suffered so much damage compared to the number of monsters that flowed in. The low death toll was due to the efforts of the Emergency Response Department and Luck's Kagema.(TN:Kagema = shadow familiars)

 

 

“Hmm. Well, don't get hurt, I think you should do whatever you want as long as you don't bother people, but don't push yourself too hard, okay?”

 

 

 Even though she's been involved in several incidents so far, she has returned without incident, so Hitomi doesn't say too much, but she still worries about what she's worried about, so she gives a warning.

 

 

“Yeah. All right. If I get tired, Onii-chan will let me rest.”

 

“Yes … Well, there's no way that stupid son would let Nanami get hurt …”

 

 

 As Nanami says this with a calm expression, Hitomi remembers how much love her son has for his little sister, and sighs while shaking her head.

 

 

“That's right. Onii-chan won't let me feel bad.”

 

 

-Gogogogogogogogooo

 

 

 The moment Nanami replies to Hitomi, a small tremor hits the two of them.

 

 

“Earthquake?”

 

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

“I wonder if that's right.”

 

 

 Being a little ways away from the school means that it is also far from the dungeon that triggered a Stampede, so the tremor is small, and the two of them recognize it as a small earthquake.

 

 

 Therefore, they decide to continue their conversation.

 

 

-Gogogogogogogogooo

 

 

 However, a few minutes later, the tremor occurs again.

 

 

“Is it the harbinger of a big earthquake?”

 

“I wonder what's going on.”

 

 

 The two of them become a little uneasy about the shaking again.

 

 

-Tiriririiin

 

 

 At that moment, Nanami's cell phone rings. Nanami takes out her cell phone from her pocket and checks it.

 

 

“Ah, it's from Shioneechan.”

 

“Shichan? What happened?”

 

 

 When Nanami murmurs, knowing that it is a 'LINNE' message from Alexia from the notification, she looks at her and tilts her head curiously.

 

 

“Wait a minute … umm … Ah, the dungeon managed by the school triggered a Stampede.”

 

“Eh!? Are they okay?”

 

 

 Hitomi's eyes widen in surprise when Nanami unlocks her phone and reads out the text of 'LINNE'.

 

 

 Nanami is calm because the hordes of monsters she encountered previously are likely to be larger than the Stampede, and because Fuhito has already calmed down the Stampede in the D-rank dungeon.

 

 

“It's okay. She says that there are only up to D-rank dungeons at school. For now, she'll join up with Onii-chan, so please wait until then.”

 

“Yes. Even so, to trigger a Stampede even in the school dungeon … I wonder what the world is coming to …”

 

 

 To the easy-going Nanami, the repeated Stampedes in her eyes make her worry about the world.

 

 

“Well, Onii-chan should do something about that, maybe.”

 

“Nanami really likes Fuhito a lot.”

 

“Of course I do!!”

 

 

 However, Nanami's remark that she likes Fuhito a lot makes her feel a little silly for thinking too deeply, and her anxiety disppates.

 

 

-Gogogogogogogogooo

 

 

 As they continue to talk, the tremor occurs again.

 

 

“The fact that it shook three times might mean all the dungeons managed by the school triggered Stampedes.”

 

“I wonder if it's dangerous even for Fuhito.”

 

 

 Hearing Nanami's prediction, Hitomi mutters worriedly.

 

 

“That's not true. However, I sent a 'LINNE' message to Onii-chan a while ago, but I haven't received a reply, so I think he's busy dealing with the Stampede.”

 

 

 However, Nanami shakes her head in denial of Hitomi's concerns, as she doesn't have the impression that Fuhito who split the sea would have trouble with just three Stampeding dungeons – also, they are of low rank.

 

 

“Since it's Fuhito, it might be that he's helping people who are delayed in evacuating.”

 

“I suppose so. He can't ignore people who are in trouble. Ah, I got a message from Shioneechan.”

 

 

 While the two of them are predicting the behavior of Fuhito, a 'LINNE' message arrives again from Alexia.

 

 

“What is it?”

 

“After meeting up with Acchan and the others, please join up here.”

 

“If they're calling Nanami, they probably don't have enough people. I think it's okay, but please be careful.”

 

 

 In response to Hitomi's question, Nanami tells her the instructions from her older brother, and Hitomi cheefully sends her off despite her worries.

 

 

“Understood!! Ah, Luck's Kagemchans!! Protect this area properly along with my mother!!”

 

“”Won.””

 

 

 After Nanami replies to Hitomi's words, she tells Luck's Kagema to properly protect Hitomi as instructed, from everywhere in the shadows, something like a shadow version of Luck pops out, they all bark as if to say to leave it to them.

 

 

“Isn't this a bit much?”

 

“Since Onii-chan says you need it, you need it!!”

 

 

 Hitomi smiles wryly at the excessive number of them, but Nanami smiles brightly.

 

 

“Haa … I understand. Promise me you'll be careful?”

 

“Yes!!”

 

 

 Hitomi lowers her head, exhales her breath, and when she warns her, Nanami cheerfully raises her hand in reply and leaves the house.
