Chapter 17
[, , , — , !]
A total of eight paralyzed monsters .
It’s an unexpected windfall .
Eight of them were paralyzed and became obstacles for the others .
[!]
And I think it’s good to be able to give my skill to them while they push the other monsters away .
[Kuh–?]
Fuuu~ oh .
I feel like I’m short on blood .
This is bad .
I’m about to lose my consciousness .
I only have few of my own MP .
I move my eyes .
How many more are there?
[Pikko! Ku kko ro!]
They came .
The bird heads .
I raise my arm with all of my strength .
[!]
[Ko, ke, ke? Ke...]
Stop .
[~uuwwaaahhh—~ah?]
Gura ~tsu (T/N: sound of staggering)
For a moment, everything I see turned white .
I shift my line of sight .
[Uh~?]
What in the world... is that?
zoro zoro... (T/N: sound of a mob coming . )
Reinforcements .
About five of them were added from the left and the right .
There’s still more coming .
This is seriously bad news .
It’s over .
I’m exhausted .
[——-]
I wonder why .
Well, I’m not sure .
It’s just that-
I laughed .
[Ku, kukuku... I quite understand now, then...]
I’m done .
I’m about to pass out .
My consciousness is about to break .
But I still persevere .
Even with just my willpower .
[Let’s do it, shall we...?]
Until it’s the end!
Even if I think that it’s already over,
[That’s a story that I’ll think about when I’m already exhausted!... ! ! ! !
Fu~tsu!
I have a feeling that something had been interrupted .
My MP have completely hit the bottom?
I feel my sense of balance shaking .
It’s like my feet can’t support me anymore .
I also feel like I can’t hold on to my consciousness anymore .
[My mental power is exhausted... was the last one that one I cast before?– huff, fuu fuuu... no no, wait for a moment... even if it’s just one more shot... even after all that trouble...]
I raise my trembling hand .
It’s true .
[The mob’s willpower– Let’s show it to them, Mimori Touka! Dash!]
The last,
[Ku ~e! Gu ~e ~e–]
... . ah?
What’s that voice?
It sounds like in its death throes–
At that moment, it surged within me .
Power .
My consciousness also visibly recovered .
The muddiness also disappeared .
Wha-?
What the?
What the heck happened?
Wait, I’ll put this aside for now .
[!]
Why?
The minotaur jumped over .
I paralyzed it mid-air .
[! ! ! ]
Why did my level go up?
[Ah . ]
That’s right .
I turned my line of sight .
There’s a bird head lying down on its face .
The first bird head that has been poisoned .
It’s dead .
Finally .
Probably because of poison damage .
That’s why I gained .
A huge amount of experience .
The growth rate that the robed man has said .
I don’t think it has something to do about me being the worst hero .
Even the necessary experience value to level up seems to be also enormous .
The lack of skill Lv made it obvious .
[After all–]
Look at the monster .
[It’s just that the experience that this monster in the ruins gives is really high . ]
That’s not normal .
Well I’m afraid I won’t win if I ever fought it normally .
I remember my first encounter with them .
The minotaur .
The bird head, too .
They move very slowly .
As if they’re underestimating me .
Completely .
It’s as if I’m not enough for them to exert even 10% of their effort .
Trash .
Weakling .
That’s why they became negligent .
Even if it’s to kill me, they didn’t do their best .
For I was the weakest .
The lowest of the low .
That’s why I had the leeway to release .
On the other hand, if I were even a little bit stronger...
If they perceived that I am one of their “dangerous enemies”,
I would have been killed before I even used my personal skills .
Now that I think about it .
Do you recover MP when you level up?
Ah, it’s about half of the MAX value?
Or possibly, a complete recovery?
Or did it just add MP depending on the increase of the correction value?
Anyway–,
I lock on towards the monsters .
If I continue to level up—
[I think it’s possible I can continue fighting!?— !]
It connected .
On the skin of the neck .
[! ! ! ]
It went up .
Perhaps the skill level of .
Is the “skill level” experience different from the previous experience value?
Does the skill experience value depend on the number of times I’ve used a specific skill?
My own level seems to have increased .
However, there is no sign of acquiring new skills .
Acquisition of new skills may depend on my skill level .
However, for the meantime–
[Overcoming this now is my top priority . ]
I knead the magic power in my hand .
I realized that I could naturally do this .
I grasped a monster in my field of vision .
And I noticed .
[Oi oi...]
What the heck .
[I think I can do it . ]
Designating multiple targets .
A mark appears on the head of the eight monsters .
The eight monsters that are in my field of view–
[]
Stop .
Eight targets at the same time .
The paralysis succeeded .
My personal skill .
It was possible that this skill won’t work only to that goddess .
It’s only been a success ever since I came here to this ruins .
A full hundred percent .
I’ve made a really tough wall made of monsters that I had paralyzed .
Rather, it’s a reliable barrier until the paralysis is released .
[Fuuuuhh...]
That’s what it means, right?
[It means that only one here can get all these experience . ]
I find myself wickedly grinning .
[If I kill all the monsters here, it means that I’d get an enormous amount of experience points...!? That’s right!]
While the monsters push away their paralyzed companions,
I use a skill on each of the paralyzed monsters .

Pokopoko...
Poko ~o...
Powawa...
Powa, powa...
I’m currently,
[]
Seeing these monsters in front of me as nothing but EXP .
