Episode 190: Real nuisance and getting mixed up in unjustified resentment(Third Party Perspective)

"It failed ..."

"What ...?"

A usual, it is a room made up of grotesque, pulsating lumps of flesh-like objects. The Black Mist reports the results of the second invasion of another world.

The moment he utters those words, the intimidating feeling emitted from The Hooded Man swells and attacks The Black Mist. The Black Mist involuntarily bends his body in front of the violent power.

"I, it failed, I said ..."

"What is thaaaaaaaaaaat!?"

Frightened, he repeats the words again, and The Hooded Man lets out a loud roar and a great deal of bloodlust.

His bloodlust boasts a quantity and quality that is incomparable to the intimidating feeling from earlier, and it is so vicious that it feels like his life is being eroded just by touching it.

"Hi, hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!"

At the piercing bloodthirst, The Black Mist senses the end of his own life, and falls backwards and retreats.

"Haa ~ ... Report everything."

"Y, Yesh."

The Hooded Man lets out a murderous intent for several tens of seconds, but he can't do anything with his rage right now, and killing The Black Mist would only delay the invasion of another world, he forcibly convinces himself, and calms down.

The Black Mist replies in a panic that makes him realize that he was trembling due to the Black Mist's habits.(TN:Not sure on this sentence ...)

"B, but, please understand that the Dungeon System overheated this time, so we weren't able to collect much data."

"Alright."

Most of the data could not be received due to the fact that the system has entered a dormant state this time as The Black Mist brought up. Unable to communicate, the only remaining records are the bracelets worn by the soldiers.

"The unit seems to have reached the dungeon safely, judging from their records. However, after they left the dungeon, their lives were all cut off."

"No way ... Unbelievable ... They were sent to a dungeon near Satotsu again ..."

When The Black Mist reports what he could read from the behavior data, The Hooded Man's disbelief was oozing out of his words.

"The system overheated, so it's possible, but it's also possible that someone other than Satotsu has a strong power."

"I see. We also underestimated humans too much ..."

The Black Mist suggests another possibility, and The Hooded Man begins to think he might need to change his perception of humans. It's fine if it's just one time, but if they were killed in an instant despite being the Middle-ranked beings, it's possible that he's misunderstood that humans are weak. He is beginning to think such.

"Certainly, we thought that humans were insignificant creatures, but looking at the results this time, I think we should prepare accordingly."

The Black Mist also makes an effort to align with The Hooded Man and direct his anger towards him to a different direction.

"Maybe so ... There may be other guys like Satotsu. I have to save my strength too."

"Yes. The Dungeon System will be dormant for a while. Now might be the perfect time."

The Black Mist gradually overshadows himself with remarks that seem to support The Hooded Man who is moving to strengthen his own army. He wants to leave this place as soon as possible.

"Phew. Really ... When will the system come out of hibernation."

"About two months from now."

"... Understood. Until then, let's retrain our people. There's no problem leaving this matter to Brekios."

He is just starting to think it might be a lucky day. The Hooded Man immediately decides to reforge the people of the Demon World and entrusts the matter to his subordinate named Brekios.

"Yes. There is no one other than him who can fulfill his role in battle."

"That's right. Then, give instructions to Brekios."

"Yes. Also ..."

The Black Mist tells The Hooded Man who has completely put him out of mind, while thinking he is gloating in his heart, he tells him something else he needs to report.

"What is it?"

"Thanks to running it until it overheated, the magic power concentration will probably exceed 60% in a few months after coming out of hibernation. For the Upper-ranked beings, and us, too, that should be the minimum level where we can work in that world."

Thanks to the Stampedes that took place all over the world, the mana concentration of the Earth rose dramatically, and it is already close to 60%. It's not possible to force the system to wake up from hibernation, so it would rise at the same speed as before, but it is still expected to be achieved within a few months.

"I see. It seems that I will be able to hand out guidance to Satotsu for the next invasion of another world."

"Most definitely."

"Okay. I'll think about it. Dismissed."

With the guidance of The Black Mist, The Hooded Man is completely focused on Fuhito.

"Haa."

The Black Mist vanishes like smoke from the room, smiling again.

"Not once, but twice ... I will never forgive Satotsuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!"

The bloodlust that had been suppressed until now explodes like a bomb, destroying the walls of the room, destroying even beyond, and turning the area into a wasteland-like place.

A black aura emanates from The Hooded Man. Strangely enough, it is the exact opposite of the pale light of Fuhito.

In this way, Fuhito, completely unbeknownst to himself, ends up incurring a completely different level of resentment from the jealousy of the students at his school.
