Chapter 037: Tell me that it’s a lie. Luciel, finds out the truth to his hallucinations

Translator: Tseirp

 

Yesterday, after they had contributed to the bustling activity in the Adventurer’s guild, the adventurers, formed just like an army, began their journey back to Meratoni from the Holy City.

Looking at that spectacle, I was caught between feeling thankful and feeling apologetic as I received warm parting words from the adventurers.

“If anything happens again, I’ll come running.”

“Luciel, I’m glad that you are alive.”

“There will be a masochist convention next time so come join us if you want to.”

“You are the only one who can eliminate Broad-san’s stress.”

“I’ve cheated on my wife but I will try to not give up and apologize just like you.”

“Only true adventurers return their favours.”

“I’ll have you treat me if I get injured again.”

“Don’t think that you are the only one that is growing. When you come to Meratoni, have a few mock battles with us as well.”

Some of the statements in the middle … no I won’t comment on them. I went to say my farewells to Instructor Broad, Grulga-san and Garba-san before they departed towards Meratoni but as expected, they advanced the conversation with a sentence at a time each without waiting for any reply from me.

“Hey listen up Luciel. No, foolish disciple. You have this many people who care about you. I’ve said it yesterday but you are weak. Be aware of that.”

“I understand.”

“Hey hey Broad, leave it at that. If not, he won’t return to Meratoni.”

” … Nuu.”

“No, he’ll return … He’ll return so stop glaring at me.”

“Luciel, the next time you come to Meratoni I’ll train you as well. My style of combat fits the cowardly you more anyway.”

“Hey Garba, are you intending to steal my disciple?”

“Hahaha. Well the person who decides that is Luciel.”

“Anyway when you come to Meratoni, bring along at least one girlfriend.”

“Eh … girlfriend?”

“Luciel. When you have a boy, I can then train him.”

“Yes yes. Luciel-kun is already of that age so think about it.”

“If you have a daughter instead then I can teach her my cooking.”

“Hey there, Grulga don’t you cut in as well and Broad don’t ride along with him. Well if you find yourself unable to stay in the Church Headquarters anymore come to the Adventurer’s Guild in Meratoni. For you, that is the best safe zone.”

“Thank you. If I reach a position that allows me to wander about, I’ll come to Meratoni at least once. Also …”

To these 3 people, it would be better to tell them clearly.

“It’s not like the simple Luciel to look so serious.”

“What is it? Is there something?”

“What’s wrong, disciple?”

I believed that they were my allies so I could tell them.

“From now on the demons will increase in activity. The hero will not be born for dozens for years but before that there is a high chance that the demon race’s strength will increase due to the influence from the evil god. All three of you, please be careful.”

 

“Hoh. Did the church receive information regarding that as well?”

“As expected of the church to have sharp ears on par with us.”

“You are a 100 years too young to be worried about us. Instead of us, now you should worry about yourself. The next time if anything happens, keep in contact with us properly. If we have many injured personnel, we’ll send in a request to the church to let us have you so don’t worry.”

“I’d worry even more if that happens.”

Just like that I easily believed them. I felt that I would never be able to win against the 3 of them who worry for me in a lifetime. I sent them off before returning to the church.

 

Returning to the church, just as I wanted to step into the magic-driven elevator, the receptionist called out to me.

“Luciel-sama, please wait a moment.”

Oh? It’s quite rare that the receptionist calls out to me.

“Yes, can I help?”

“I received a message to ask you to find Catherine-sama when you return.”

“But I don’t know anybody called Catherine-san?”

Eh? Why? What’s with that ‘Oh shit’ expression?

“Excuse me. It is Katria-sama from yesterday.”

“Ah. Katria-san … I’m sorry. I have no idea where she usually is and neither do I know where her room is at?”

“Ah if that’s the case then please wait a moment. I’ll contact her for you immediately.”

And then, just like when I initially came to the church, she closed her eyes while holding a crystal ball-like item.

 

But pulling an all-nighter was really bad. Even though my body was still young, I still felt sleepy. As I yawned greatly while waiting, somebody appeared gallantly.

“Luciel-kun, so you were alive.”

My sleepiness was blown away at once. Because the person who came to get me was Lumina-san. Why is it that she only sees me when I’m doing something weird?

“I would like to talk but we’ll have to go immediately.”

As Lumina-san and I walked towards the Pope’s room, she praised me for staying alive.

 

『Kon kon kon』

“Valkyrie Paladin Corps captain Lumina here. I have brought the exorcist Luciel.”

“Enter.”

I entered through the middle of the opened door and hung my head while bending on one knee.

“Exorcist Luciel, welcome back.”

“Yes! I apologize for making you worry.”

“No worries. Originally we would have rescued you but there were many who were against it and moreover Wraiths appeared in the 30th floor onward so we had to give up on the rescue.”

“It is okay, I think that that is natural.”

“It helps me if you say it that way. However, why did you not return for over half a year?”

(Eh? Did she not know that a bug happened? So that’s why. If she was monitoring me then she would have came to rescue me.)

“Yes. The truth is the boss that appeared on the 40th floor was a Specter Knight that was larger than usual. It could also ridiculously completely recover every time from any purification magic or healing magic I cast on it … There was only 1 method, it did not recover any wounds it received from physical attacks. Which was why I battled countless times while treating my wounds with healing magic. I have no idea if it was due to my good luck but when I tried to use Object X as a barricade, it succeeded in making it stay away from me. From then on, I battled again and again, healing my legs that were blown off or arms that had been slashed, taking my meals and getting some sleep, as I drew out countless strategies and tried them out repeatedly via trial and error. I desperately ate to regenerate my lost blood that can’t be recovered using healing magic while I looked for its weakness, but I am not a genuine warrior so I could only naively charge forwards. I have no idea how long I fought for but I somehow defeated it.”

Oops, I was getting a little too passionate. When I noticed everyone looking at me I suddenly felt embarrassed.

” … That is tremendous. And so why couldn’t you return after such a long period?”

“Ah~ I wanted to return after defeating it but when I tried to go back the way I came from, I couldn’t open the door so I could only proceed onwards to the 50th floor. After defeating the 50th floor boss, I could finally return. For the specific details, I apologize but I cannot tell it to anybody other than Your Holiness, Katria-sama and Lumina-sama.”

” … Umu. There’s no helping it if there’s something sensitive. Everybody else leave.”

 

I thought that there would be somewhat of a dispute regarding this, but the attendants, and others who look like archbishops?, bishops? obediently left the Pope’s room.

Including me, only 4 people remained in the Pope’s room.

 

“And so? Do you have a decent reason for clearing out the room?”

Even though her figure was hidden, I somehow felt a vigilant atmosphere from the Pope.

“Yes. The 50th floor boss … I was surprised by it in the main room. An enormous Wight attacked me and the blood that flowed from it gave rise to monsters.”

“Was it possibly a Specter Magician?”

“Yes. It was somewhat like that configuration? I somehow defeated it using 「Sanctuary Circle」, but at the very end, I had not expected it to cast an illusion of the Wight becoming an elderly man which attacked my mental spirit.”

” … Elderly man.”

Eh? Was it not an elderly man? Katria-san and Lumina-san were stunned and staring at my direction. Ah, was I too frank with my words?

“Putting aside the hallucinations, it is fairly difficult for a new healer to clear that labyrinth. I was fearful that any moment I would hear the words of resurrection after getting game over.”

However, it should be alright for me to claim that I had cleared the illusionary labyrinth now right? Even though it is true that it had amazing quality, I had really worked hard for it?

“Game over? What do you mean by resurrection?”

Eh? Ah. There isn’t any games in this world. Instead of resurrection, I have no idea what word they use for it.

“Your holiness, I’ve cleared the labyrinth so there’s no longer any need to continue acting? There’s also something else I’d like to say. That Holy Dragon that appeared in the end, I was really surprised.”

“Elderly man, Holy Dragon, maybe …”

“It was regarding the reincarnation dragons that were sealed by the evil god. A setting that would have me release the sealed dragons within the next 40 years.”

” … Katria, Lumina. I forbid you from revealing anything that Luciel had just said.”

“”Yes!””

” … And so, what did the dragon say?”

“Erm, if the sealed dragons are not released, the demonic element would become closer to the Darkness and gradually become stronger. The hero that would be born might lose to the demons. I would say that it’s a great setting.”

” … What are you talking about. This … wait, did it say anything else?”

“It asked me, a healer, to do whatever I can within my capabilities. Also, I did not retrieve the final magic stone within the labyrinth because I felt that it was a trap.”

” … Luciel. Since just now there has been a few things that bothered me, could I ask about those?”

“Yeah. Of course.”

Is it if I enjoyed the labyrinth? Or my approach to face the bad smell? The monster arrangement for the next labyrinth?

“Firstly, what do you mean by illusion?”

“Eh? Starting with that? Well that is important coming from the maker’s point of view. The quality of monsters beginning from the 1st floor was high. However, it is a shame that there wasn’t any discomfort when receiving attacks nor was there any feedback when attacking with a sword or spear.”

” … Lumina, what were your thoughts when you dived?”

“There was feedback when slashing but when magical power was channelled, I felt that they immediately returned to the demonic element of the labyrinth.”

“Apart from that the quality was high. There was a sense of pain, especially the 40th floor knight setting, did Your Holiness set them yourself? Ah, the weapons used by that knight, the greatsword and long spear, can I take them out?”

“Yes.”

“This is the problem. Although the illusions was impressive to allow this greatsword to cleave through the shield and the arm holding on to it, and this spear to blow away the leg into fragments, usually the shock would be too great causing the person to faint or die. It is devilish to set such a strong monster … you have no idea how many times I thought of that.”

“These very two are … and within that report I want to doubt my ears but how many pairs of arms and legs do you have? And the magic you used in the 50th floor … did you say 「Sanctuary Circle」?”

“Yes. I luckily obtained the magic spell book for 「Extra Heal」 on the 39th floor, following that the previously mentioned 40th floor boss dropped the 「Sanctuary Circle」 spell book, and remarkably, I had no chance to use it yet, but the 50th floor boss dropped the taboo magic 「Revival」 when I defeated it. There is a chance that I would not use this in a lifetime so it would gather dust within my magic bag … time is frozen in it so I guess that would not happen, but I guess I would not take it out into this world.”

” … Katria, Lumina, I forbid you from revealing anything you’ve heard today.”

“”Yes!””

“So, Luciel, I would have you take out everything you collected in the boss rooms. Of course including those obtained from the dragon as well. It is necessary to inspect them. Of course all the items belong to you, but there might be some items that I would like you to hand over to me.”

“Well I guessed it would come to this. Since they were items that were planted by Your Holiness for the labyrinth capture.”

“You’ve been talking about illusions since just now but I did not place these items and the undead are real monsters.”

“No way, if they were real monsters then wouldn’t my level rise? I had not risen by even one level. Without that I would have believed it.”

” … How?! … Show us your status.”

“Eh? There are no changes anyway. Status open.”

“See, I’m still level 1.”

“But your job increased, and do you think that is the status of a level 1?”

“It is true that my status have increased across the board, but if you insist on that, then why does my level not increase?”

I refuted it. It is true that my status have increased but I would still be instantly killed by Broad-san so I am not that strong.

” … Katria, show this to Luciel.”

Katria-san retrieved an old book from the Pope and she passed it to me.

“This is?”

“The original literature for God’s Grief a.k.a. Object X. Read it.”

 

Various discussions were recorded within the document. Among those, there were several possibilities written.

Written among the discussions regarding body level, it had been confirmed as a demerit that when drinking it the individual would find it very difficult to level up.

Moreover, because there wasn’t anybody who continued drinking it, he hoped that someday somebody who could do so would appear so that he could conduct a detailed study.

That was written in the conclusion at the very end of the literature.

” … Erm, eh? I can’t find the proper words. Hahaha. Eh, but?”

“Luciel-kun, calm down.”

“Luciel-kun, it’s okay, you are still alive and present here.”

“Surely you didn’t think that it was really all an illusion.”

 

I was supported at both sides by Katria-san and Lumina-san until I calmed down. I remained in that posture all the way until I settled my confused state of mind.

At that time I really didn’t have any spare room to consider the fragrant scent from the two ladies nor the way they attended me from both sides. Even the posture that I was in, I didn’t felt anything at all.

 

When I retrieved the items from my magic bag after I had calmed down, the Pope only collected the 40th floor boss’s greatsword and long spear, as well as the 50th floor boss’s cane.

The magic spell books became my belongings and I complied when she requested permission to copy them, except for 「Revival」, at a later date.

The 40th floor boss’s equipment and the equipment left behind by the Holy Dragon were returned to me and they became my dedicated equipment, as nobody else could handle them.

In addition the magic bags, I did not need them because I would not have a chance to use them, but apparently the labyrinth magic bags could be bought with white gold coins.

“Regarding the Holy Dragon bones obtained after applying purification on the undead dragon, is it possible for you to hand some of them over to me?”

“Yeah. If I’m the only person who can use the Holy bones from the Holy Dragon, then others can use the parts that turned into undead? However Your Holiness, please only use them for the Valkyrie Paladin Corps and former knight captain Catherine.”

“Understood. The celebrations for clearing the labyrinth would be held a week from now, you will be required to attend as the guest of honour.”

“Understood.”

“Katria and Lumina remain behind, we will carry out a discussion regarding future measures.”

“”Yes!””

“Luciel you have achieved a great cause. I am glad that you returned safely.”

“Yes! Thank you.”

Even though I had lack of sleep and was in a state of turmoil, I thought about how dangerous were the things that I had done as I returned to my room.

Normally I wouldn’t be able to sleep at this timing, but thanks to the Angel’s Pillow cheat item, I was able to get a deep and peaceful sleep.

 

(TL: This chapter most likely answered a lot of the speculations you all had up until now 🙂 So it really was Object X. and Luciel finally got to keep the spoils of war from his hard fought boss battles and labyrinth dive!)

    Thx for the chap, cap!

  5. I'm surprised he didn't bring up the greed of other people. Japanese people seem so laid back, it's a mental health problem :O

  6. Anonymous

    Is it cureable ? The exp block from object x, can he cancel it if he don't consume those for some time ? I'm expecting him get 50% for each level up

    • Anon

      He killed a dragon and hasn’t leveled up a single time…”Making leveling up difficult” is the understatement of all understatements.

  7. neto raregroove ? perhaps you were my twins ? :v

  8. muhahahahahahaha object x
    i wonder if object x is upping the xp limit or just suppress xp input to 0

    • DigimasterHiro

      I think the XP is being diverted into his stats and the Stat Growth Rate Up skills. Wait for those to hit X, then stop drinking it.

  9. OMFG soooooo gooooood i can't wait for next chap, OMG so gooood

    Thanks for the chapter.

  11. So he donated the Undead half of the Holy Dragon to the Valkyrie Paladin Corps.

    Current Loot:-

    40th Floor Boss – Magic Stone, Armour, helmet, gauntlets, greaves and boots. One-handed Sword, Short Spear. Spellbook (Sanctuary Circle).

    50th Floor Boss – Magic Stone, Spellbook (Revive).

    Bonus Boss (Undead Holy Dragon) – The Holy Dragon’s (provisional) scales, Holy Dragon’s reverse scale, Holy Dragon’s fang, Holy Dragon’s bones, Spear (possibly better than Short Spear above) as well as accessories (unknown effects). & LOOT! LOOT! LOOT! LOOT! LOOT! Plus Ultra! Various gold and silver treasures, weapons, armour, magic tools and luxury articles. And of course the traditional reward for a job well done, ANOTHER JOB (Holy Dragon Knight).

    Luciel has got to be actually the richest healer alive right now. And he did it by simply charging 1 silver…:P

  12. I've been wondering. If object X is splash at the monster, will they die a slow agony pain like it's some kind of high toxic that destroy their brain from the smell? Even the great shisho don't want to get close to it so it should be really potent

  13. as i thought it really object X
    did it double or 1.5x required for level uo?

  14. thabks for the great chapter !!!!!!!!!!
    but will Luciel leveling rate stay like this forever or will he be able to level up noramally

  15. Ganbare, Luciel-kun!

    somehow i want to see luciel-kun panic expression and scream like a bi* … uhh ehem.
    b-but it's kinda too normal.
    anyway overall it's a refreshing story to follow

    I think his exp is being converted into hard stats by Object X
    Thanks for the chapter

  18. Thanks~ ^^
    Object X = in exchange to very difficult(?) to level up, gain various abnormal status resistances + various statuses becoming easier to rise.
    hm…. isn't that the best item for grinding maniac lol~ ^^
    (um… his Rate of Growth sill lv 8… i want him to grin in to lv X before lv-up… >.<)
    yoshaa~ most of the loots still his possession ^^

  19. Object X likely uses the EXP and converts it to raising overall potential growth. It could be that As a result of being so much stronger, he became a much higher being. Like if a person kills a bunch of amoebas or bacteria, they would not level up because the monsters in comparison are ants and he is a bigger existence that needs more nourishment to achieve the next level. If he fed and raised monsters using the Object X, then maybe he would be able to level up better. It would not make sense for a strong being to level up after beating small fries. They need to fight something on the same level or stronger to experience a level up. And his potential growth needs more experience in order to fuel that level of power he might obtain.

    "Written among the discussions regarding body level, it had been confirmed as a demerit that when drinking it the individual would find it very difficult to level up."

    Understate much? The guy kept clearing a dungeon for like a year filled with high level mobs and boss mobs – at level 1. For him not to even hit level 2 is definitely ridiculous. At this point it might be fair to say that if he doesn't stop drinking OX, he will never level up.

    Unless, there is a limit to its effectiveness and he is about to hit it and from that point onward, he will level normally.

  21. For the chapter's name in the next he's going to level up, so he seems to have stopped drinking that, or reduced to amount I guess

  22. It probably puts the experience gained at 1/1000000. I mean he defeated all those monsters but still never leveled up.

  23. ….That moment when your arms and legs keep getting cut/destroyed and you just keep healing and regenerating them…. Luciel you OP MC

    He took the "not an illusion" part rather well.

    Finally the question that kept on lingering in my mind has been answered…… I suspected the object-x but there are no indication about it on prev info. The pope kept it for herself xD

  26. He got a warior job now, so his warrior skills will go super fast like his healer skills?

    I'm shocked that his holy and magic skill already hit lv9. I mean, an SS rank adventurer has his skill at lv 7 before Luciel came. Staying lv1 seems to all-worth-it now.

  27. Thanks for the new chapter! Damn. That status for a level 1 is crazy! He finally figures out the issue with Object X. Lol!!

  28. Anonymous

    Thanks for tracking this :3

  29. after all that crazy status the first thing he says… "See, I'm still level 1." xD
    And probably this is how it goes, a normal lvl 1 that kills a goblin levels up to 2 after a long hard battle and his/her strength stat(for example) goes from 5 to 7… But Luciel(after stopping taking Object X) with his strength of 142(xD) one shots a goblin and also levels up to 2 making his strength go from 142 to 160(8×2, an example) just by killing a simple goblin… When normally you get strength 142 at around let's say lvl 60 and you need to kill a wyvern if you want to level up and would only go from 142 to 145… if you see it like that, on the long run it's definitely worth drinking Object X-sama for all those "Level XIII" boost per level and the bonus Resistances are just insanely useful… I wonder if he'll get more "SP" like the ones God gave him per level though… and get spacial magic using the needed points… teleport skill is a must for badass MCs like Luciel xD
    Thank you soooooooo much for another great chapter!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

  30. Hahah yea great job! 😀 I also forgot how much he had collected along his journey through the labyrinth

  31. Woah weaponized Object X

  32. Yea it's most likely more like what Luc said. He defeated like 6 bosses and still level 1…:X

  33. Thanks for the chapter!

    Seriously, the progression just jumped everywhere, wtf? Stick to the program author-san!

    Also, poor Luciel, it was his bosom buddy Object X that was holding him back…

  34. Thanks for the chapter!

    Seriously, the progression just jumped everywhere, wtf? Stick to the program author-san!

    Also, poor Luciel, it was his bosom buddy Object X that was holding him back…

  35. He will be able to 🙂 don't think that it will be a lasting effect

  36. Hahaha yea the grinder's ultimate wish

  37. Hahah yea gross understatement. But well they didn't have enough guinea pigs to test that theory out because nobody continued to drink it for so long XD

  38. Yea looks like he is going to be an imba warrior healer

  39. thanks for the chapter /o/

  40. I'm no surprise they are level 9, because shisho(boss from 40th floor boss) told me something crazy with telepathic magic after shisho's successor respawned on his 40th floor(he is weaker without the weapons Luciel took after killing shisho the first time)… anyways… the crazy thing he told me was… … … after the successor respawned he found thousands of limbs on the ground all over the floor… probably limbs worth 6 months of battles… He was so scared that he passed out, hit his head and died(RIP)… giving birth to successor #2 who also passed out but didn't hit his head so he survived(phew*)…
    In conclusion… after regrowing so many limbs(and worse, his own), I'm no surprise his healing Job and Skill are at lvl 9… 🙂

    *shakes fist* DAMN YOU OBJECT X!

  42. i figured it was object x from the start that stopped his leveling,a good example of occam's razor

  43. Thanks for the chapter 😀

  44. 「RMG Increased Rate of Growth VIII」
    just wondering what is RMG actualy ? and thanks for the chapter

  45. Hahaha yea I love the little bits of humour in this story

  46. Anonymous

    i personally think object x is a blessing….
    sure it reduce exp, but if he could gain that status and skill @ level 1, imagine a level up bonus he get

    sorry my english is bad

  47. I am one of those people who love the OP MC but Luciel I adore even more because he started as the weakest (Healer) but now can make a normal OPMC of Warrior/Swordman who hasn't worked so hard for 3 years and still Level One seem like he had it to easy.

  48. Why doesn't the Pope want to copy the "Revival" spellbook?

  49. I think because it's taboo 😡 maybe there's a side effect to using it or even to owning it. Maybe the god will punish you for having it etc

  50. the Angel's Pillow cheat item is really the most wonderful item of all his belonging! LoL!

    「One who unleashed the seal」
    (Immune to the curse of the evil god. Capable of obtaining the power of sealed dragons) = dragonborn lol
    i imagine him absorbing the soul of the dragon

  53. Now i begin understand this novel tittle.
    So far i read novel, Healer type mc that had OP power is few, but Luciel is at top 3

  54. finally the otherworld cheat kita

  55. for all you know once his resistance and growth skill hit max object X losses it effect

  56. but it be nice if he kept a barrel of object x when he camps that way no monster will disturb his night rest

  57. and if he combines it with Manowa indestructible futon the ultimate bedroom set is complete

  58. I wonder if he'll keep drinking Object X and wait to level up until after he's maxed out his increased growth skills? If he does, I wonder how much he'll get from his first level up? And what he'll kill for his first level up. Technically, he could kill the weakest of monsters for it, but he could win that fight by sneezing at it, so I don't know if the system would recognize that as gaining xp.

    I wonder if maybe his xp is just stored somehow and he'll receive it all (or some part of it) after he stops drinking Object X for a while?

  59. I was just thinking that myself 😉

    Of course, there's no way either MC would give up their treasure, so this would only happen if they got together as a couple.

  60. If he will level up, the shining light of level up will blind the whole town…Like tiny nuclear warhead, KABOOM!

  61. I was hoping he don't stop drinking object X until all the Increase Growth Rate skills reaches X so whenever he levels up the growth in stats are tremendous if I understand how the Object X goes. Or it's just me.

  62. Thank you for the chapter! Dogeza! Orz

  63. And here I was hoping to see the scene of Luciel demanding dungeon training ground clearance rewards.

  64. I wonder if levling up stat bonus will be based on a percentage of base station? If that's the case luceil can expect a great stat boost and become the strongest!

  65. Lol, object X is Kingdom Hearts birth by sleep "no exp" skill… Guess he wanted a challenge

  66. Still killed a dragon, I doubt that's not high enough to level someone to 2.

    It more likely simply suppresses any XP gain for the duration of the other effects, effectively changing XP gain into raw stats.

  67. He's OP but we all know he deserves that power… and got a few unsavory nicknames. Deviant Saint-sama Ganbare!
    Thank you for the chapter!

  68. it's bearly any more dangerus than skunk spray. at best you just mazed an undead…

  69. he should, it's not that hard to not drink on expedition days, (hopefully) meaning that he can still grind resistances on his non combat days. AND bring monster repellant of DOOOM (if he camps alone. the girls will veto it's use and declared it a war crime)

  70. That's true. There's not really any need to level up as long as the stats and skills level up.

  71. Imagine if the people found out that you can revive the dead? Everyone who has a lost loved one would be banging on your door trying to see you about it. Now we know it has a high requirement to use ect ect. So the number of healers who could actually use it would be very small. But will that angry mob burning down the clinic because the stuck up healer won't use revival on someone (because he dosen't know how) Revival would bring great harm to the healers guild/church. Especially with there current low standing among the public. Imagine all of those adventures and townspeople outside the headquarters rioting because the Guild was keeping revival secret all this time (despite them not knowing of its existence)

    Yeah, and that's a bit of let down. I anticipated this revelation to be more comical, really…

    Now that Luciel can heal severed flesh I'd wish he goes back and heals those guys with collapsed eyes and such. I feel kinda bad for them.
    And I guess he has already healed that beast girls' vocal cords, but if not, then heal her too.

    I've caught up with the latest translation and so I'd like to express my gratitude towards Tseirp-sensei for the great job so far. As it is known that it's not unusual for the Japanese sentence to have 80% of it omitted and 15% being some vague onomatopoeia, translating it is nothing less but an art. And there are a lot of examples of good WNs/LNs like Mushoku Tensei or Kumo Desu Ga with bad translations, when you feel your brain is accumulating damage, but you force yourself through the unintelligible text hoping to get a hint of the story. (Wish there was a skill like Shitty Translation Resistance to lvl up, lol.)

    But the translation by Tseirp-sensei is truly a bliss to read. Thank you very much for all the hard work!

    Object X is healthy and save for consumption ^_^

    Actually, you can't splash it at monsters because it would ruin the fields.

  76. I was like…"wtf am I reading" on the first few paragraphs lol….

    Thanks for the chapter.
    Can someone please explain what the abbreviations mean. I can figure out some like maybe HP is health and MP is magic but what is INT and the like?
    Also, what is the importance of leveling?

  78. You can find the meaning for the abbreviations in the first status table in the prologue translated by me.
    Leveling is for skill points for Luciel and status point of regular people…ordinary people who don't drink object x can't increase their status so much just by grinding

  79. Thanks for the wonderful compliment 😀

  80. Now that I think about it…. Luciel discovered how monsters will stay away from Object X. Does that mean the church can just place barrels of Object X in the entrance of the labyrynth?

  81. Thank you very much for chapter (★´ω`★)ゞ
    Poor Luciel having hard time because of object X
    Luckily there are two pretty girls to support him (•́⌄•́๑)૭✧
    ヽ(๑╹ڡ╹๑)ノ Cant wait for the first lvl up and the reaction of the greedy healers to Luciel new postion huehuehue o(≧▽≦)o

  82. Σ( ̄ロ ̄lll) WHAT do mean by "hasn't", he work hard for three years!! He keep on training everyday and get hit alot by Broad for 2 years. He keep healing until mana depletion. He works hard and never has any vacation.

    SO HOW DO HELL YOU THINK HE HAS IT EASY!! ლ(ಠ_ಠლ)
    sorry for the message, I can't just… ughhh

    They generally dont care about the society, they dont care unless it affect them, im disgusted about how most japanese novels make their Japanese MC goody goody, while you should know from history that its not, suicide rates, rapes and other things they hide from the world.

    Also this MC got a brick as brain.

  84. Of course all societies has their problems. I like this novel because it is a change from the revenge driven stories of Chinese LN and some other Japanese LN too. Its always good to have a read for all types of MC anyway.

  85. Thanks for the chapter Tseirp!

    Im glad he got he spoils of war. Translator please dont scare me like that…lol those notes give me bad premonitions somtimes

  87. Who Cares

    Ugh someone stop him from NOT drinking that toxic waste until the growth section hits 10, he needs to get the limit breaks skill :p

  88. Al

    So he finally finds out about his level and the labyrinth is real,and still hands over his gear for free I don’t see why he trust these people that are cheating him especially when it sounds like they would have took alot more from him if they could. Also did they see all his stats or just level and do they increase the same amount they would if he leveled up but it’s still ridiculous that he cleared a 50 labyrinth and some floor s multiple times but didn’t level up

  89. Holy dragon knight as a 2nd job ?!

    “why does my level not increase ?” finally, he asked it. Fi.na.lly. And as some commenters guessed, it was indeed because of product X. but seriously, what the hell is that thing ?

  90. ReadDxD

    The published novel changed it so he figured out it wasnt a game while fighting shishou and its infinitely worse for it.

  91. Berserkersap

    I feel like the managers version is better than this ……

    Did I misread the manga? Feels like the manga translation is not up far compared to this. No offense to the scanlation group maybe a page is missing or something

    • I have not read the manga so im not too sure but usually the manga would be drawn with reference to the light novel, which would typically have a different sequence of events compared to the webnovel that’s translated here.

  93. Rororo

    Soo, basically he’s playing Dark Souls at SL1 or Bloodborne at BL4 + Chalice Dungeon + DLC Bosses
