Tsuki – Chapter 361: Towards Independence ④

2nd day.

Good weather.

“This is… It is rare to see the prediction of Danna-sama deviate this heavily.” 

Morris, who was looking at the state of the Aion army from the top of the outer wall early in the morning, muttered this. 

A straight posture that could fascinate, donning a butler outfit that has no wrinkles from top to bottom. 

He is talking as if nothing, but he was actually pretty agitated.

That’s because there was a result that would heavily throw off the predictions of his master, Rembrandt. 

“Should I be happy that the schedule can be moved up, or has the so-called ‘luck’ begun to interfere… I should report this at once.” (Morris)

Morris quickly turned in order to hurry to the side of Rembrandt.

On the other hand, at his back, there’s the Aion army that has been attacked by demonic beasts and is in a pathetic state on the verge of collapse. 

Information about the mamonos of the wasteland hasn’t been shared with the Aion army. 

They did plan to advance till the side of the wasteland, but entering the wasteland and dealing with it wasn’t in their heads.

You could criticize them by saying they weren’t cautious enough.

But in reality, they didn’t even have the thought that Tsige would be breaking the barrier between the wasteland and the city in their desperation.

People who would think something as disgusting as throwing demonic beasts in a war between hyumans are the weird ones. 

That’s the common sense of hyumans. 

They would easily belittle their opponents for being underhanded if their opponents were to shut themselves in a terrain advantageous for themselves, despite them sometimes using demi-humans to fight their battles.

As long as they manage to get control of the opponent’s information line with their spies, they just have to get enough fighting force to overwhelm the opponent. 

This kind of thinking was remarkably strong in Aion.

Today, this very way of thinking of theirs was leading them thoroughly to the bad direction.

If there were still brave people in Aion who could still maintain their wits and bring order, it might have been a different story.

But there wasn’t. 

They have no Hero, and there’s no outstanding talent in Aion.

Even when they are counted as one of the four major powers.

Being a nation that flourishes in scandals and pulling each other’s legs is most likely affecting it somewhat. 

There was a person from royalty that was somewhat popular between the people, but they are now in the revolutionary army. 

There was also a womanizer general that was bold, cool-headed, and skilled in his violent means, but he is already gone from this world. 

There was a naval officer who was young, talented, and from a good bloodline, but any news about them was cut off after the variant incident of Rotsgard.

Also, even when in the middle of a civil war that divides the nation, a famous city despite being in a remote region declared independence. 

In terms of their core moving parts, you could say they are in tatters to an unbelievable extent. 

That’s why the plan of Rembrandt to make the surroundings switch sides went amusingly smooth, and he was able to proclaim that Aion is a country that only has its size going for it, and is food for their growth. 

“Even though they can’t do anything against even 1 of those monsters.” 

“Demonic beasts that can kill blessed hyumans; I thought only dragons could do that.” 

A total night raid and surprise attack.

Demonic beasts that have no plan and simply attack whatever living being they find shouldn’t be an opponent that blessed soldiers shouldn’t be able to deal with. 

In the first place, soldiers in an army fight as teams, so their individual strength isn’t that high.

“Even though I am a rear guard.” 

“Is the aria not done yet?” 

“Mama, I am sorry.” 

At a time when they don’t have the time to make proper formation and haven’t even managed to completely arm themselves, they were attacked by demonic beasts that are completely superior to them and must be fought with several teams. 

It was as clear as day that it would begin with complete domination. 

Even so, after paying a sacrifice of several hundreds, Aion should have regained their advantage with their numbers even if against the wasteland demonic beasts…however, even when night passed and the sun was rising, the battle of the Aion army against the demonic beasts was still unfolding, and casualties continued to show up. 

There were a total of around 300 demonic beasts thrown from the Tsige side.

Centered mostly in nocturnal demonic beasts, they were of varied strengths, and were gathered while prioritizing numbers.

Even Rembrandt doesn’t know all demonic beasts, so there were 2 miscalculations here. 

The first one was that there were a decent amount of demonic beasts thrown into the Aion side that were ‘corpse eaters’; demonic beasts that prefer eating the corpses of dead animals. 

Because of this, around 100 demonic beasts had swarmed at the corpses that were already present in the battlefield.

The other one is that there was an outrageous one sealed within one of the crystals. 

A common occurrence when buying in bulk all the sealed crystals that the summoners and tamers who returned from the wasteland possess.

The adventurers and merchants of Tsige…recognize the Mist Town as a part of the wasteland.

That’s right.

“No…no…!” 

“Aaaaaaaaaah!!” 

“Stay away, stay awaaaa—–!!” 

“Even a dragon would have been better…” 

Within the slaughter caused by the demonic beasts against the Aion army, there’s one being that doesn’t exist in this world mixed in. 

A special kind of wild animal called a bear.

Due to how gigantic it is, Makoto named it as a Moon Grizzly. It is a pretty well known dangerous animal in Asora. 

◇◇◆◆◇◇◆◆◇◇◆◆◇◇◆◆

It has been a day since the battle with Aion started.

Being called by Rembrandt-san, I came to the outer walls that are close to the frontlines. 

It is because he told me to lend him a bit of wisdom.

In the end, Tsige had steamrolled the first day. 

Due to this, everyone’s expression was bright, including the Aion soldiers who switched sides. 

The use of illusion magic, tactics that use the full power of ritual magic; they all hit perfectly on the mark. 

But to think that they would increase their population by taking people from the Aion army because the land of Tsige will be increasing…

That’s quite the way of thinking.

Arriving with a massive army from afar, taking away a decent number of those soldiers after receiving the Blessing, and then using their power on their own army. 

It must be an excruciating embarrassment for them. 

Tomoe said that she would return by the time the war starts again and would resume the broadcast. 

Ema was making a summarized version with the help of the other female orcs. 

Even after late in the night, Tomoe was still properly watching things  as if she had a magnifier in hand though.

It seems like they threw demonic beasts to raid them at night. 

‘I said I would be resting at night-ja!’, is what Tomoe said angrily. 

“But it is a bit weird. There’s no way 200-300 demonic beasts could suppress the tens of thousands remaining of the Aion army even if they are from the wasteland.” (Makoto)

I checked the numbers quickly with Sakai, and they were still in the middle of battle. 

There’s also still quite a good number of demonic beasts alive. 

Even so, the Aion army…

The more than 20,000 merchants that were sticking to the army due to the demand that would be born from the march, most of them have already dispersed. 

It started as an army of several hundreds of thousands, but right now, it is at most…

While I was holding those slight doubts and pity in my heart, I saw the people of the Rembrandt Company waving their hands.

Over there, huh.

“Heya there, good morning! Sorry for calling you so early in the morning.” (Rembrandt)

“Thank you very much, Rembrandt-san. It seems the first day was a sweeping victory, congratulations.” (Makoto)

“It was nothing. You introduced skilled mercenaries that could take care of squads easily, and there were a lot of adventurers who have polished their abilities in the wasteland cooperating here. Rather, I have had a few misreads here and there, and it is embarrassing. It really is impossible to have a war where not a single one of your comrades dies…” (Rembrandt)

“Your opponent is one of the four major powers. The name of Tsige and yours are most likely hot topics in many other countries already.” (Makoto)

“It would make me happy if that were the case. Seriously, war is complicated. Becoming a legend is one of my objectives after all.” (Rembrandt)

“?” (Makoto)

“Aah, it is not like I have a hero desire. It is just that, after the Rotsgard incident, I was thinking about how much of a beneficial thing it would be if people were to see me in that way, and you have shown precedent that, even if you are a merchant or a company, it is possible to be viewed as a hero depending on how you do it. I was simply thinking that it would make things easier for the future if I were to become that.” (Rembrandt)

“Aah, so that’s what you meant.” (Makoto)

“Also, the way of doing things from the demons at that time. Their method of jamming was incredibly outstanding. Once the setup and the activation is done, it is really difficult to remove, and you normally wouldn’t choose that method. The bigger the enemy, the higher the amount of troubles that will occur when the moment matters due to the loss of communication. There was no reason not to use this card. There’s types in thought transmissions, so I had to request a few things to tinker with it, but well, the effects were great.” (Rembrandt)

That thing of Rotsgard, huh.

I see.

He didn’t simple copy it, but tinkered with it and made it so it can deal with the several types of thought transmissions. 

That would require quite the amount of people and time. Did he decide to make this place the battlefield a long time ago?

Could it be that he made the wall to…

“Danna-sama.” (Morris)

“! Ah, right. Even though I called you here, I ended up having a long casual talk. Sorry about that, Raidou-kun.” (Rembrandt)

“Don’t worry about it.” (Makoto)

“And so, I will get right into it. Last night, we did a number of live performances on several stages, but I wanted to hear a bit more about your opinion in regards to idols.” (Rembrandt)

Idols?

“Danna-sama!” (Morris)

“…Oops, I heard the conversations of the soldiers and adventurers all the time last night, so it slipped. I thought it could be used for advertisement.” (Rembrandt)

“I do understand your feelings, but I think you should be telling him about the urgent matter first.” (Morris)

Ooh, it is rare to see Morris-san avoiding agreeing with Rembrandt-san! 

“Umu, actually, we made stages of dancers and bards that heal and enhance the former Aion soldiers, adventurers, mercenaries, and recruit soldiers of Tsige.” (Rembrandt)

“Yes?” (Makoto)

“At the back of that, we also gave a present to Aion, you see. We threw several hundreds of wasteland monsters sealed in special crystals by the Skills of summoners and tamers to have the Aion army dance with them.” (Rembrandt)

“I see.” (Makoto)

Ah, could it be that these live performances he is talking about are something similar to what Rembrandt-san did in the morning with the sparkling and the BGM?

And so, he used those performances…to erase the screams that could come from the other side of the walls?

“…You are not getting surprised, Raidou-kun. Noma-kun and Vivi-san were shocked at first when they heard about this plan though.” (Rembrandt)

“Eh, yeah. I have a few thoughts regarding that, but well, it is a war. I thought that it would be best to just think about the details after winning.” (Makoto)

“Hmm… By the way, what are these ‘few thoughts’ of yours, Raidou-kun?” (Rembrandt)

“Aah, you have probably evacuated the settlements nearby, but I was wondering what you would do about the cleaning of the demonic beasts later.” (Makoto)

If the demonic beasts are wiped out, there’s no worries, but there’s the chance some of them would hide somewhere. 

“The cleaning, huh. We do plan on shooting more ritual magic at a wide radius in today’s battle as well.” (Rembrandt)

“…”

“They might still have a few ritual mages that are useful, but this time I will be shooting all 10 at them. Judging from their state on the first day, the most I think they have thought up of is to investigate the positions of our mage units, and swiftly attack them. We are thinking about cleaning the demonic beasts with that.” (Rembrandt)

“Not gonna do anything about the stragglers?” (Makoto)

“I do intend to introduce skilled adventurers if there’s any request for help, but that side is Aion territory. I have judged that there’s no need for us to be considerate of them.” (Rembrandt)

The ‘not my business’ stance, then.

I see. 

And so they will be shooting a barrage of ritual magic for two days in a row. 

To top it off, it isn’t 8 but 10. 

“About that ritual magic. Since when did you develop an 8th one?” (Makoto)

I find it hard to believe that Rembrandt-san could achieve something that even the Rotsgard Academy couldn’t achieve, regardless of how big the connections of Rembrandt-san are.

Is his power that incredible?

“Rather than 8th, it is more like there’s an 8th, 9th, and 10th. I didn’t do any development. I simply bought what already existed.” (Rembrandt)

“Bought?” (Makoto)

“You don’t see them often in Tsige, but there’s a decent amount of demons living around the area. I bought high level magic knowledge from them. Apparently they are already developing more light and darkness ritual spells, and they already have a 12th and 13th ritual spell. Man, they are really amazing.” (Rembrandt)

“I think you are also amazing for being able to buy it, Rembrandt-san…” (Makoto)

The demons also have an eye on ritual magic, huh.

Even so, they haven’t used it much in the battles until now. 

Or maybe it coincidentally wasn’t the case in the battlefields I have seen?

“They are most likely putting an eye on means to defeat many with few. Well, the demons were mainly researching ways to counter them for sure while researching attack types. It is not like I don’t understand that feeling of theirs. What must be done before creating the strongest weapon is to create the strongest shield to defend against it after all.” (Rembrandt)

“I see…” (Makoto)

“And so, to the main topic. There’s a bit of an unexpected development with those wasteland demonic beasts.” (Rembrandt)

“Yes?” (Makoto)

“One of those is that there’s more corpse eaters within those demonic beasts. Well, the battlefield has a seemingly endless amount of Aion soldier corpses, so they didn’t rampage as much as I wanted them to. Regarding this, I am thinking about starting a research team to investigate the nature of the demonic beasts, and actively throw out requests to adventurers about this, but…” (Rembrandt)

“?” (Makoto)

“Actually, there’s a demonic beast that even the veteran adventurers have never seen before mixed there. It is embarrassing to say this, but we don’t know its origin… I thought that, as a person who has information of even the deep areas of the wasteland, you might have heard about it before, so I called you here.” (Rembrandt)

“And what’s the demonic beast you speak of?” (Makoto)

“Morris has sketched it. Morris has sketched it. I think he has properly gotten the traits of it… Do you have an ide—?!” (Rembrandt)

The drawing that Rembrandt-san showed me. 

Seeing the drawing there, I stood up from the surprise.

“Moon Grizzly?!” (Makoto)

“S-So you know it?!” (Rembrandt)

‘It is a bear of Asora!’, I was about to shout that, but I somehow managed to endure.

Eh? 

Eh?! 

Are you telling me that an adventurer that came to the Mist Town encountered a bear due to some kind of mistake, and they somehow miraculously managed to capture it? 

Are you kidding me? 

I think that’s an impossible thing unless you were to find a wounded and lethargic Moon Grizzly.

Even within the warriors of Asora, there aren’t that many who can fight that bear one on one. 

With that thing going wild, of course the chaos in the Aion army wouldn’t calm down.

There’s no way it would.

“Rembrandt-san.” (Makoto)

“…What is it?” (Rembrandt)

“There’s still time before today’s battle begins, right?” (Makoto)

“Right. Considering the state there, I would say it will take a bit more time.” (Rembrandt)

“I am sorry, but I think that demonic beast is a bit too stimulating for the outside of the wasteland. Can I retrieve it?” (Makoto)

“Of course. We have achieved our objective. We would also like to avoid an unnecessary battle with a healthy giant demonic beast.” (Rembrandt)

“…Thanks. Then, I will be taking my leave here… ?!” (Makoto)

A thunderous roar that resonated in the whole area. 

I had a bad feeling about this and went outside, and what I saw there was a shower of lightning falling down from the sky. 

The lightning that’s supposed to disappear in an instant had branched widely, and was staying in the sky, shining. 

A blue sky, and red lightning. 

What a bizarre sight.

What a waste of good weather.

(Waka… It seems…bear of Asora…found its way there.) (Tomoe)

(Tomoe?) (Makoto)

(I went…urgently…retrieve it.) (Tomoe)

(I was about to head there too… Tomoe? Oi, Tomoe?!) (Makoto)

Something’s strange.

Tomoe’s location… I can tell where she is.

Ema is also there.

And, there’s someone else there.

The source of this lightning! 

(I am…sorry.) (Tomoe)

(I am heading there at once!) (Makoto)

For a moment there, I thought about teleporting, but there’s way too many eyes here.

I desperately endured my impatient emotions, and jumped to the top of the outer wall.

This also stands out, but this much can’t be helped! 

With the presence of Tomoe and Ema as my marker, I aimed for that place with my fastest speed.

    1. that’s a terrifying thought. but it would be a pretty cool way to remove the bugs influence if he just overwrites the world.

    2. Well remember that people can enter Mist Town which is in Asora so maybe one guy stumbled into the surrounding forests of Mist Town and captured the bear.

      1. The problem is that there would not likely be a single summoner in the entire hyuman race who could achieve the capture of one.

    3. Asora’s first invasion of Bugland, was with a ferocious banana tree…just imagine the devastation if it was one of the more intelligent trees, or some of the wolves…!

      1. its confusing, but there are 2 characters with same name apparently, the Ginebia nicknamed Bia of Apple or the adventurers of origin while the other Ginebia is trashmoki companion, she gets addressed with her title i think of grount or royal guard

  2. Thank you for the great work!!

    At last it happened someone aside from the adventurers that stole the rings will manage to make our boy actually mad…
    Not worried or anything else, genuinely mad, Can’t wait for the mad beating about to happen.

  3. This was great and enlightening in so many ways. Why would Tomoe’s voice be cutting out? A bear of Asora, would be plenty strong and probably ripped a new ass in Aion’s troops. Damn, I hate cliffhangers.

    1. Who have we seen just recently that uses lightning and possibly has the power to catch Tomoe off guard while she’s fighting a bear? I think the apostle just showed up since the army is losing….

  4. Thanks for the chapter !!

    Of course one of strongest beast in Asora has Moon in their name….. Curious who’s lucky adventure that can capture this beast if even warrior of Asora have problem dealing it. or is it Tamaki’s scheme ?

    So next chapter is the one we waiting for huh….

    1. moon-bear/moon-grizzly/tsukinowa-grizzly/tsukinowa-guma is an actual species of bear in japan, and probably the model behind pokemon teddiursa and ursaring

  5. …now I have my fears up for the apostle actually being a threat to Tomoe.
    thankfully I expect to discover that Tomoe is in fact just dumbfounded at the apostle having been eaten by the bear~

    1. Yea, the bear most likely wont be a threat for Tomoe specially with ema being there,
      She is the best magic user on highland orc If I’m not mistaken, she should be around Toa level or above.
      The same goes with apostle, Tomoe should be around Root level by now after getting futsu power, she wont be defeated in an instant, and she can revive people now.

      1. Yeah, she can revive people now, and before that, she unlocked the ability to make illusions real, and real things into illusions, but that doesn’t mean that she could completely avoid getting killed. Remember Futsu also had the power to revive the dead, and she’s stuck in the afterlife now.

    2. Well you know how bears are called Godless Killing Machines. Time for Alte to eat a Kuma Punch. A green-haired girl in a bear costume can attest to to its power.

    1. I can’t wait for the next chapter, the exciting part is in the next chapter,
      I hope the next released will be double chapte….

      1. She ‘The bug’ can blesh thunder element to her apostle because she have compitable with the element, event there’s not high spirit thunder or thundernelemen magic on this world,
        Can be she’s zeus dughter? Athena half sister ‘Artemis’????

  6. The apostle has appeared, and surely Tomoe is injured, I just hope that the bear helps Makoto by devouring the apostle because if it is from Asora, Makoto can have a connection with the bear, like the wolfz of Asora. And of the adventurer who was able to capture him, I hope it is Toa or Rinon (if it shows that he has a hidden power), or Sofia since Root erased his memory.

    1. From memory the wolves were the rulers of the forest as Makoto stated they were the strongest in the forest. Highly doubt it would Rinon as she isn’t an adventurer.

      Tamaki idea is that she is part of the examiners who test adventurers to get into Mist Town and she is slightly evil? (Advised Makoto to wipe out the forest inhabitants to allow for city expansion) and a researcher also, so probably could be trying to see the effects/take over the hyuman world

  7. Uh well then… I was expecting that this would be a short war but I was thinking it’d take two or three days more for it to be over. I didn’t think Aion’s army would be on the verge of collapse already. I really overestimated them. Even if there weren’t all those corpse eaters and a bear there I don’t think that Aion would have held out.

    I do want to know which adventurer was crazy and strong enough or at least stupidly lucky enough to have been able to capture a bear from Asora.

    Also so there are even more types of ritual magic out there. Instead of 7 there are 13. Also it is saying something that Rembrandt would buy the knowledge for the 8th-10th ritual magic from demons even though they are ostensibly supposed to be enemies and at war with them. Plus Rembrandt even has copied and modified the demon’s tactics they used in Rotsgard. All of this makes it sound like he has no problem with demons. Some other hyumans probably would never even try to acquire magic from them and adopt their tactics out of racism. But not Rembrandt.

    Oh no don’t tell me even Rembrandt has been infected by the Idol Culture. The first thing he asks Makoto is about idols instead of what you would think would be a more pressing matter of identifying a certain overpowered beast.

    So I guess the Apostle has shown up since they said that lightning is the trademark of Apostles and right now a bunch of lightning fell. Makoto is going to absolutely eradicate her since the lightning fell at the location of Tomoe, Ema and the bear. You don’t get to endanger Makoto’s people and live. I think I remember Makoto had made a deal with Bug to not interfere but that deal can go screw itself now that his people are being threatened by Alte. What’s Bug gonna do? Send her only other Apostle after Makoto too to also get destroyed? The rest of Aion’s army will probably be killed in the crossfire of Makoto’s battle with Alte. Actually wasn’t this army almost all of the military forces of Aion? With them gone, Aion will cease to exist since now the other countries can come in and carve up its territories now that they have no army to protect them.

    1. It’s going to be interesting as the apostles are not affected by magic so Makoto will have to fight differntley as he doesn’t really have skills (now he has advised his followers to develop their skills).

      Looking forward to it as Alte is most likely p’d off as she gor mugged off by Toa’s team and then witnessed the wall whilst on the way the army is being destroyed.

      1. Well Makoto can just use his archery and Sakai. Also his Silver Arms and I think his magic power armor probably wouldn’t be nullified by the Apostle’s powers.

      2. Even if apostles aren’t affected by magic… 10 bucks on Makoto just brute forcing her with magic and winning anyway.

      3. I think they still can affect makoto since his armor is straight up pure magical power, remember the bout with hibiki she managed to off set it after certain point which ended in giving a bruise to makoto in his hand, altho makoto’s silver arms could technically suck and crush the lighting, as they are able to crush even Root buckshot

    2. U know, Makoto has “sure hit”, huge mana reservoir and eldrawf’s customized bow and arrow.
      I seriously think that the apostle will be owned by Makoto.
      Especially when that apostle can’t even win against that knight from the origin of adventurer.

  8. I’m still waiting for Rembrandt to ask Makoto’s help and Makoto pulls every stop and fights in this second war.

    1. Doesn’t look like he’ll need to. Aion’s army has almost all been wiped out already. Then add in that Bug’s Apostle Alte just showed up at Tomoe’s location where Ema and the bear are who could get hurt by Alte and well… Makoto’s gonna wreck her before she gets a chance to endanger his people and the rest of Aion’s army will probably get caught up in their fight and eradicated. Remember how many people died getting caught in the first fight between Makoto and Sophia? I’m seeing a repeat of that happening here.

      1. That is true, but I just want to see Makoto show that this company is the 5th super power nation in the world.

        1. N = demon territory (Dragon Superior Akari)

          E = Gritonia & Loreal (Dragon Superior Sazanami/Ground)

          W = Limia Kingdom (Dragon Superior Waterfall)

          S = Westland & Independent Tsige (Dragon Superior Shen , Dark Spirit Mio , Shikigami Shiki , Miko Template Tamaki , and Lord Raido (Misumi Makoto ))

          Adventure Guild = Advent (Ancient Dragon Superior Harmony (Perv Root))

          Rosgard = Academy (Ancient Dragon Supreme Boundary (Futsu Youmi))

    1. Yeah, I would rather they do one this time, so they can’t torture us for five days and give us a no cliffhanger next time.

  9. > So the second apostle is infiltrating asora?

    > Also, Imagine, thousands of muscle-sans, ojii-muscles-sans and other adventurers flocking the idol stage,
    supporting their favorite idol, waving the lightstick in complete 7 color set, and they form an official choreograph group
    so that their lightstick move’s in sync with the music…
    (Ive got creep on that imagining it)

  10. I half expect the bear to maul that apostle

    Also, if the bear was that strong, I’d like to image what’s gonna happen if Asora has dinosaurs. Moon T-rex sounds like fun

  11. WOWOWOWOW
    Tamaki someone from the Rokuya group took a cute bear from makoto’s place

    Everything was too perfect, in the place of the bear that annihilates everything, it attracted the attention of the apostle and Tomoe and Ema were right there.

    Makoto is going to be very angry if any of the 3 are hurt. The bears and wolves and the bird rock are especially connected with makoto

    What did they expect from the Aion army, from the beginning they said that Limia and Gritonia were the experts in war against demons and we already know the pathetic defeat they had in Stella and now we have Aion facing a Rotsgard level strategy, rather it surprises me that they will last 1 day .

    Lastly, Rembrant is very ambitious, he wants to have the position of heroic merchant. That simple comment will leave a mark on Makoto, which would mean that Makoto later begins to tire of Rembrant.

  12. what makes it more amazing, that guy managed to capture that bear despite how OP that bear…. even Makoto himself says that among warriors on Asora, only a few who can take that bear on one vs one….
    so seeing a ‘hyuman’ return alive after encounter it and moreover managed to capture it is already beyond understanding, that guy really loved by Luck Goddess…
    now waiting bunch of OP wolves also come to join the party…. lol

      1. seeing how OP the Bear, even if they can lure it with foods i don’t think they got enough anesthetic to make it lethargic, and that if they knew about anesthetic….
        this bear can go toe to toe against top warriors on Asora after all…
        probably like Makoto said, its pure luck to find injured bear (from battle with other bears) and then seal it…

  13. thanks for chap
    just to be sure but the kuma-san isn’t actually a bear costume wearing emerald haired girl who mistakenly got caught right?

    leaves a lot of questions,since even a single warrior of asora cant go 1v1 with it ,its confirmed not possible by hyumans to capture the bear.so chances are it wandered out? and coincidentally got caught??maybe an insider mischief? can only guess it to be some research team,demon princess or tamaki?

    tomoe said sorry so either 1. she is weaker than apostle (what??) 2. the bear was killed/captured already 3.(ruined) she accidentally killed / beat up the apostle.
    oh lol she met the apostle and considering mc is going there next few battle chaps will be LIT!!!!!!!!!!!
    mc in action after ages
    FIGHT FIGHT FIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  14. This is gonna be great, now the question is is Tomoe apologizing because the apostle has injured her or is she apologizing for getting caught by the apostle resulting in Makoto getting dragged in

    1. Asoran bear meat might become popular in Tsige once I get rid of that gaminess…

      [He didn’t simple copy it, but tinkered with it and made it so it can deal with the several types of thought transmissions.]
      * simple —> simply

      [Morris has sketched it. Morris has sketched it.]
      * Morris has sketched it. Morris has sketched it. —> Morris has sketched it.

  15. Tamaki can interact with the adventurers visiting Mist Town ? Cause it’s kind of suspicious that one of the beasts that she wanted to completely eradicate is being used in a war that she got know the details not long ago… If she made this situation happen what might her objective be ? Makoto summoning her ? Or the death or serious injury of one of Makoto’s dear ones ?
    I really don’t think one adventurer could casually capture the bear when few can actually beat them in Asora and Tamaki was not long ago discussing both the war and before that she wanted Makoto to deal with the animals that live in Asora, I really don’t think that’s just some coincidence.

  16. Damn that cliff. But i tot most of ppl in mist town is confine to mist town apart from a few that pass the test….. so how did1 guy went out and found a dangerous monster in asora………

  17. Well who would have though that Morris words would be so fitting in this chapter, luck indeed played its hand abruptly, SO those two migth be clashing before it was planned.

    1. I’m guessing something happened to Ema cause Tomoe is a dragon and an insanely strong one so she might have gotten hurt but not killed, the bear also probs survived cause he is also strong so the only option is Ema and I’m pretty sure she doesn’t have a big defence if she isn’t prepared for it. Btw, thank you for the chapter

  18. So, sh1t is about to hit the fan, and here we are, cornered on the cliff.
    Red lightning = apostle intervention, ok.
    But why Tomoe’s/Ema’s voice got cut off? Did she teleport in with timing to get hit by Alte’s lightning together with bear-san? Then deal with Bug is done, and we are up for a bloodbath.
    Yes, Alte is magic-immune… But does Makoto care? Sakai, archery, Silver Hands. Or stuff her stomach with volatile Dampire and “let it glow~”
    My only question- who’s the f ker who mixed bear in crystal stock? It has to be an insider. No way your human pug summoner can trap THAT magnitude(close to S.Dragon). Either it is Makoto’s Rotten Luck trait or… Traitor?

      1. Not really, adventurers are brought in, controllably. The only 2 who can create mist gate(the only way to get to Asora) are Makoto and Tomoe(her offshot is part of her). There was a semi-permanent gate experiment(in some inn) but they abandoned it after incident where Tomoe’s first offshore was killed by adventurers.
        There should be 4 gates connected to Asora(for climate change), but they should be closed

  19. Thanks for the chapter.
    This one made me remember 2 things :
    If Makoto wanted to conquer that world without Bug intervention, it would to at most a week if he doesn’t want casualties and 1 day for an eradication.
    We get a beginning of an answer about how Tomoe died in Demon lord Makoto time line if the apostle can made her in that state in just one big strike…

  20. Thank you very double much! LOL

    Wow, a bear… if it’s danherous even for Asora, how strong would that be in his world?

    And finally the apostle appears! Let’s go!

    1. I would rather see a lake of Eternal Flame being formed, or Makoto copying the apostle lightning and a lightning storm attack being unleashed on apostle(lol)

  21. I’m wondering… is that really just the Apostle? The weather suddenly changing, and Tomoe already in trouble. I have a feeling The Bug is personally involved here. Maybe I’m wrong.

  22. Does anyone have a feeling that makotos about to take his rings off? I wonder what would happen anyway… cause at the start he was said to be several times stronger than a demon king, and with how many times he’s doubled his strength through his daily archery practice… I have a feeling that he’ll be like aizen from bleach in that no one will be able too sense him due to it just being way too strong for them to sense.

    1. Someone has thought about if Makoto kills the apostle, it could expand Asora and at the same time the human world near Tsige

  23. Sometime, I think that Rembrandt is very lucky to get involved with Makoto…

    1. His family is saved.
    2. He is getting out of aion.
    3. The war is tilting to his flavor due to the “bear”

  24. Hey there buddy, what’cha chewin’ on?
    *Hack* *cough* *ball lightning* *resumes chewing*
    Kuma, no! Drop it! Drrrop iiiiiit!
    *futile struggle to pry open bear’s mouth ensues*

  25. I was thinking a cow should be enough… but a bear of all things??! 😆 yare yare.
    Big question though~ how and who in the world captured the bear???

    Is it finally finally the time for tsige to stop thinking so low of raidou? When some think raidou is just the rep of a company with super strong people, he’s finally going to show up his own strength befitting of the Waka-sama title~? Looking forward to it! ☆

    Thanks for the chapter~ ❤

  26. so basically in 300 times gacha pull, Tsige managed to pull 1 SSSSSR *summon* monster which most likely have almost the same stats as demon general.

  27. animal beast asora mystic power

    “Even though they can’t do anything against even 1 of those monsters.”

    “Demonic beasts that can kill blessed hyumans; I thought only dragons could do that.”

  28. Hysteria Army :

    The adventurers and merchants of Tsige…recognize the Mist Town as a part of the wasteland.

    That’s right.

    “No…no…!”

    “Aaaaaaaaaah!!”

    “Stay away, stay awaaaa—–!!”

    “Even a dragon would have been better…”

    Within the slaughter caused by the demonic beasts against the Aion army, there’s one being that doesn’t exist in this world mixed in.

    A special kind of wild animal called a bear.

    Due to how gigantic it is, Makoto named it as a Moon Grizzly. It is a pretty well known dangerous animal in Asora.

  29. Does anyone remember that Makoto wanted to have a Rinon birthday

    Source Chap 236 :

    “Uhm, I have already talked about the bento, so…regarding the state of the town, it isn’t hasty like the time with Rotsgard, and in the sense of tension, this town is able to maintain it at an ordinary level. There’s nothing of interest. If I had to say something…the birthday of Rinon is coming soon. Toa said that she wanted to have the party at our place.” (Mio)

    …That’s really just saying whatever comes to mind.

    I see. Rinon’s birthday is coming. How old was she?

    She isn’t in school, so there’s nothing about student year and that makes it harder to know.

    There’s already the income of her sister’s party, and they are also okay with their house expenditures, and Rinon herself is gaining income too.

    Just what’s the point of age?

  30. I feel like they have Tomoe “screwing up” and apologizing too much. I get that she is the top personal when it comes to management since he seems to only use mist gates for himself so all other movement in and out of asura is from her but still, it’s feelsbadman. Tomoe doesn’t deserve it.

  31. Can someone help me find a chapter please? The last thing I read , there was a big guy and a little girl with a big staff and they were about to fight some monster coming down a mountain, this was after raidou fought against the gritonian spies.

  32. Did you smell that from that bear …. that’s the scent of Tamaki’s schemes

    Lol, someone wished on last chapter comment for an Asora’s beast ….. Rejoice, your wish was granted in the form of pissed off Moon Grizily that couldn’t eat Asora SSS grade honey anymore.

    Thus that bear suffer from withdrawal syndrome, and venting its frustation to nearby unlucky Aion soldiers

  33. “At the back of that, we also gave a present to Aion, you see. We threw several hundreds of wasteland monsters sealed in special crystals by the Skills of summoners and tamers to have the Aion army dance with them.” (Rembrandt)

    Me: You sure its not poke balls? 😂😂

  34. Rembrandt. You will be REMembered
    and BRANDed as the warcrime initiator in history. Already an equivalent of Alfred Nobel with his invention of TNT.

    Other than that, man, this world has been fked by Makoto’s bad luck in several ways. And by that I mean all countries he has gotten involved in has weakened to the max it will be an easy capture for him once he invades full force.

    Empire has Tomokidiot going wild with his perfume rabies from being pummeled by Makoto, Limia has Hibaka/Hipocrite and the stupid nobles, their king losing his shit, their dragon dead and their priestess traumatized, Lorel is already Makoto’s puppet, Aion I ain’t see no more, Tsige and Rotsgard being drugged by the benefits of his store to the point of overdependence, and in the Demon King’s lands, he rolled an SSR and pulled Root.

      1. makoto pretty much doesn’t need luck in surviving root’s supreme breath attack and jsut like how someone said in this story,Makoto have serious bad luck and he is walking on a pathless road where there’s little to no road so he make and paved the road he is walking hiimselg like a goddamn badass that he is

  35. Aion Strategy was like: Have more soldiers than them and we win.
    Rembrandt Strategy meanwhile was like: Infinite IQ, Supreme Battle Tactics, Improved Warfare, Information Advantage and Soldier Bribing.
    Rembrandt: “You were saying?”

  36. Oh wow this snowball is getting out of control now. How long until one more of the major powers doesn’t care about the goddess, since Lorel and Gritonia don’t really care, and tip the scales towards peace with the demons? The giant snowball with Makoto at its core is barreling down the slope at breakneck pace towards the shitty bug, it might break more than just a neck at this rate though.

  37. Fun Fact:
    Moon Grizzly or in the raw, Tsukinowa Grizzly
    it’s an actual species of bear that lives in Japan
    it’s also the inspiration for pokemon Ursaring and Teddiursa, which is why they have moon pattern on their body

  38. Im so sorry Eris.., somehow i thought you were the culprit even tho i didnt read anything that connects that bear to you 😆

    1. i’m pretty sure you were surpried that makoto didn’t need to use even a single draupnir to effectively kill the apostle woman.He only uses his exxtreme godly archery skill that have surpassed the mortal boundaries of marksmanship…

  39. How did that Bear got out? Nah seriously, close that f*cking mist town. That place is nothing but trouble. What are the Gaurdians of Mist Town doing?
