#347 The Return of the Missing Adventurer

My name is Shabe, your resident newbie adventurer.

When I heard the rumor that Silver Wolf had died, I was terrified!

He was one of the only five S-class adventurers in the world, and he was primarily known for his finesse.

A lone wolf, he never forms parties and constantly challenges dungeons by himself.

Many adventurers admire him for his aloof demeanor.

I, for one, am also his big fan.

Most newbie adventurers are either G...

#346 The Guest Lecturer Returns

Yep, it’s me again. But bored.

Sensei left to teach the students the horrors of a Lifeless King without inviting me.

I was interested in seeing another of his kind, but he said, “Why don’t you show the adventurer around since we invited him?”

I guess I am the farm owner. The host can’t just leave their guests alone, so I followed Silver Wolf to Veil’s dungeon.

The competitive Veil just dragged him away, you see.

#345 The Immortal Earl

My name is...

...Uh, I forgot.

I forgot my name a long time ago. Such is the trend of Lifeless Kings, beings who have transcended death.

To us conquerors of death, our days of living, trapped in old age and perdition, are a disgrace.

So we threw them away, including the names we used to call ourselves.

Now that I have triumphed over death, people call me an earl.

If I had to say, it’s befitting of my transcendence.

<...

#344 A Dungeon’s Value

Silver Wolf’s adventurer lessons are still going on.

This S-class adventurer’s wisdom and attentiveness in dungeon survival is nothing short of impressive.

...And so is his astonishment.

“Why and how are there so many mana metal ore?! Did you know they’re only mineable in five-star cave dungeons?! Even a piece the size of your thumb is enough to provide for your needs for the rest of your lifeeeeeeee!!!”

Oh yeah, even Pops Edw...

#343 Silver Wolf’s Adventurer Lessons: Hands-on Practice

And so, we’re here at Sensei’s dungeon.

“Mr. Silver Wolf, an S-class adventurer, will teach us the ropes of dungeon conquering. Take in the experience with all your five senses, and don’t miss a single moment!”

“YES, SIR!”

There are about 40-50 students in total, which is too many to enter the dungeon at once, so the class is divided into groups of ten.

This ...

#342 Silver Wolf’s Adventurer Lessons

We are now greeted by an adventurer named Silver Wolf.

But as soon as he saw Sensei, he lost all composure.

Most people who have met Sensei trembled in fear, but I think his reaction was the most intense.

“Is this really okay...” everyone in the welcoming group thought, but Alexander’s follow-up brought his reputation back up.

I see, so he reacted weirdly precisely because of his experiences.

“I-I’m sorry, everyone. I ha...

#341 Adventurer?

I am Silver Wolf, one of the S-class adventurers recognized by the guild.

I’m proud to say that I have the experience and achievements to match my status.

Looking back, I’ve conquered numerous dungeons.

Infinite Offal, one of the largest cave dungeons in the Human Kingdom.

Abaricia Familia, a ruins dungeon where the mansion constantly rebuilds and expands itself.

Vulcan’s Lair, a dungeon of the highest danger level located in a volcani...

#340 A New Teacher

I noticed that the automatons had become humanized thanks to Hades, God of the Underworld.

“‘Tis mine own method to express gratitude for thy consistent offerings. Prithee, no need for thankfulness.”

By ‘offerings,’ does he mean the bowls of mazegohan we give him?!

Now what?

I brought these hundred automatons because they don’t need food or a place to sleep, but things are different now that they’ve been humanized!

<...

#339 The Pygmalion Project

My name is Exada, one of the demon army’s young officers studying at Lord Saint’s farm.

I don’t remember doing anything extraordinary, so why I was brought here is still a mystery to me.

 Surely, only the flawless elites can study under Lord Saint.

Especially when you have Sensei, a Lifeless King, as your teacher, you’re guaranteed to become a great mage unparalleled in history.

You can also become acquainted with elite humans and mer...

#338 A Doll's Life

#338 Doll Life

I was so surprised.

They suddenly entered Nirvana.

Although, it’s a mystery whether the concept of “entering Nirvana” exists in this fantasy world.

Anyway, it seems Mariage, the automaton inventor, and the first automaton he made were content with their reunion.

Their souls separated from their bodies (?) and they ascended to heaven. 

The sky is supposed to be the celestial gods’ realm,...

#337 Acknowledged Genius

While I returned to the farm with Mariage, Puffer and the others stayed behind to continue recovering the weather-beaten automatons in the lab for reuse.

The orcs and goblins who came back one after another had automatons on their shoulders.

They must be the relatively undamaged ones they retrieved from the pile of wreckage.

“Even after your death, the remaining automaton followed the blueprint to produce its own kind, increasing its numbers...”

#336 A Machine Doll’s Genius (Self-Proclaimed)

It’s me.

I was surprised to see a gigantic automaton suddenly appear.

I thought it would be the Mansion Mystery series, but it suddenly became a Godzilla-esque story.

...Well, they’re just my assumptions, though.

But whether it’s a murderer with elaborate tricks or a giant monster, our team has the strength to crush them, so the result is all the same.

In fact, the giant automaton anticlimactically crumbled despit...

#335 The 9,800th Automaton’s Dream, Destroyed

My name is Mariage, a genius demon researcher.

I was born with a talent, a talent revolutionary enough to defy conventional wisdom and start a new way of thinking.

I was born to change the world.

To substantiate my talent and spread it to the world, I need the backing of someone influential.

So, I went to the Demon King to appeal to him, but...

“We have no need for pipe dreams.”

...he said, and ordered me out....

#334 Getting Help from an Automaton

I decided to go along with Puffer’s plan to solve the labor shortage and visited a certain place within the Demon Kingdom, the demon race’s territory.

We’re deep in the mountains, but it didn’t take much effort to get here since we teleported.

Does this mean Puffer has been here before?

“Ah, this brings back memories. Nothing much has changed around here.”

One can only teleport to a place that has a waypoint. 

In ...

#333 Looking Back at the Farm’s Development

It’s me.

I know this is sudden, but I’d like to take a second look at how our farm has developed.

At first, it started with just me and an empty land.

Then, I cultivated it, expanded the fields, and built houses and various facilities.

I spontaneously did whatever I wanted since I didn’t have a set plan in mind.

It was chaotic.

Not that I intend to reflect on or change this chaos and haphazardness.

I�...

#332 The Match Between the Students and the Farm’s Five Strongest: Part 5

To put it short, Gobukichi is one speedy beast.

He rides his unique horse and jumps around at speed faster than the naked eye can follow.

His sharp mana metal scythe could cut our heads off like dry grass.

With its many obstructions, the forest was the perfect place for him and his horse to maneuver, and with the tree trunks’ recoil, they jumped in all directions.

“Ah! Where did they go?!”

“Everybody, freeze! Keep your bac...

#331 The Match Between the Students and the Farm’s Five Strongest: Part 4

My name’s Ritheseus, a human studying at the farm.

I’ll be continuing the story from my point of view this time.

* * *

It’s been nothing but hell so far.

Five rounds between the farm representatives and us students started with the idea of finding out the farm’s strength level.

We’ve lost all three matches so far.

All one-sided losses.

Teacher Belena, Princess Letasreit, and Lady Platy, our opponen...

it pains me to say this, but...

im down with the flu and cant translate today. i tried waiting it out to see if i can get better within the day, but alas, less than 3 hrs before the schedule time and it hasnt improved as much. just sitting in front of the pc typing this makes my back hurt like wtf

ill respond to any comments/messages once ive recovered and of course, work double-time to make up for this. i also want to apologize to my new patrons, this doesnt always happen here...

thank you for understanding! &n...

#329 The Match Between the Students and the Farm’s Five Strongest: Part 1

“Lady Belena?!”

“Teacher Belena?!”

The students focus their attention on the young demoness’ appearance.

“Hello, everyone. I, Belena, the self-proclaimed incompetent, was assigned to fight you.”

She’s still using that alias?!

The students know Belena very well.

Perhaps because of her previous job—a Heavenly One’s aide—she’s probably well-known among the demon students.

But on top of t...

#330 The Match Between the Students and the Farm’s Five Strongest Residents -Parts 2 & 3

“Princess... Letasreit?”

What’s with the anticlimactic expressions?

Is something wrong with Letasreit being the strongest human on the farm? 

“Hehehe... Sorry to say, but I’m not going easy on you. You’d better prepare yourselves!”

“Good luck,” cheers her friend, Horkosfon, from the sides.

Moreover...

“Lady Letasreit is our next opponent?!”

She’s the princess of the no...

postponement

busy with preparations for new years eve, so i cant release a chapter today. ill work double-time tomorrow to release 2.

for now, i wish you an advanced happy new year everyone! 

(hopefully, things get better in 2022, i wouldn't want to write my thesis online...)

#328 Who’s Strong?

One day, a young student asked, “I know you two are the best buds, so this seems unlikely. But if you ever fought, who’d win?”

And he actually directed it at the person themselves: Orkubo and Gobukichi.

Hearing this made me think, “How dare he ask them that question,” but...

“It doesn’t matter which one of us is stronger.”

“Mhm, we’re working towards the same goal under our lord. Why worry about who’s better than the other?�...

#327 Dairy Goat Problems (Sequel)

“Soooooooooo good!!!”

Previously...

I was offered some blue cheese, so I tried it.

And it’s delicious!

“What in the world is this?!”

This is completely different from the cheese I’ve had in my world!

It’s soft, puffy, and has a unique chewiness as if I’m biting into rare meat or sashimi.

Is this what they call raw cheese?!

“Gasp!”

This reminds ...

#326 Dairy Goat Problems (Prequel)

Panu is here.

She comes from a race of satyrs, a combination of humans and goats.

“We have a problem,” she says.

“What happened? Did a troll block your path when you were out to eat some grass to put on weight?”

“Um, no. We’re up against something much bigger and more sinister than that.”

She completely ignored my high IQ otherworldly joke. *

“Also, I don’t want to get fat!”

Ok...

#325 Bottomless Tofu Marsh

I’m still in the middle of making otherworldly tofu.

I’ve mashed the soybeans, boiled them, and separated them into soymilk and dregs.

However, I still can’t go beyond that.

I thought I’d make tofu by solidifying the milk, but I have no recollection of how.

“It’s only now that my memory isn’t as helpful!”

Well, I can try various methods.

Will it harden naturally with time? Nope.

Soymilk will be...

#324 Making Tofu

Letasreit’s goal has shifted to teaching youth about the goodness of beans, while her plan to restore the Human Kingdom was utterly discarded.

Guess we’re focusing on beans now.

“Help me, Saint!”

“Please help us, Master.”

All right, all right.

I, too, was asked to partake in their bean movement.

The students who came here to study are mostly in their teens. In short, they’re young and live...

#323 A Princess’s Ambition

The study program launched on our farm was meant to gather youth from the human, demon, and mermaid races and educate them to become future leaders.

Thanks to this, the farm’s average age has drastically decreased, and population distribution has been dramatically affected.

Demons have increased, mermaids have increased...

And a similar increase in humans led to this one incident...

* * *

“This is our chance!”

#321 A Touching Meeting

It’s me again.

We’re coming up with a plan to bring Goetia and Marine to meet their grandfather.

We discovered from various intel that the valued client who was buying the elves’ crafts was the Great Demon King.

Realizing how small the world was, I wondered if I could use this to our advantage.

After much careful thought... we settled with luring him in with our work.

“It seems that this Great Demon King likes a...

#322 The Great Demon King’s Farm Visit

At first, one of the plans was to summon Hades, God of the Underworld.

If there’s anyone higher in rank than a king, it’s a god.

So, if we ask Hades to give the order, even the Great Demon King won’t be able to defy it.

This effect seemed to be outstanding.

However, coercion is never a good thing, no matter the reason. Plus, it’d be rude to Hades to summon him every time, so we kept it as our last resort.

We tried appealin...

#320 Demon King and Great Demon King

I am the Great Demon King Baal, also the “biggest fool of the demon race,” according to many.

During my reign as demon king in the past, I encouraged my people to spread civilization, prioritizing it over the war with our archnemesis, the human race.

The war had gone on for too long, making the hearts of the demon race desolate and miserable.

If it wasn’t going to end despite our efforts, shouldn’t we raise the national cultural level and enligh...
