The Death Mage That Doesnt Want A Fourth Time 49 (1/2)

Note from the translator:

As I keep gaining translation experience and get better at it, I want to keep trying things to make improvements to my translations I want lish literature, though I’s like “Bocchan” But I ae in this chapter

I’ue is written (ordialogue) rather than following the way it is written in japanese Though it’s prettyskill, itit, the actual e at all other than that I’ll dowhen the japanese raw doesn’t specify (which I was already doing with the na almost all use of non-standard punctuation such as these brackets:「」『』【】

Like I said before, this is a very experiarding this, I’ll revert it back for the next chapter Let uys think

Insectoid monsters have no ability to think and move solely on instinct

Upon hearing this, one ht think that this would make it easier for Tamers such as those with the Animal Trainer skill to control them However, the reality is that their instincts are too powerful for humans to manipulate

There have been those who came up ays to use special herbs, incense and certain sounds to control them to a certain extent, but the final result was too unstable to be called taerous method where oneeaten

And thus, the fact that insectoid monsters and Undead cannot be tamed became widely-known

“Is that how it’s supposed to be?” Vandalieu asked after listening to Borkus’s explanation

Buzzing

“It is,” replied Borkus

More buzzing

“I find that hard to believe” Vandalieu had been captured by the countless Ce carried around by them

They’re so friendly, though

It apparently happened to be the tie the location of their nest when Vandalieu had found theht by his Death-Attribute Charm

There had been a previous incident where the Undead in a Dungeon were friendly towards Vandalieu, but he hadn’t eon back then However, these bees had followed Vandalieu’s party even down to the next floor

It was likely because the level of Vandalieu’s Death-Attribute Charm skill had increased since back then

Or perhaps it was simply that Cemetery Bees were more compatible with Vandalieu

“Ghouls, Vampires and Cemetery Bees This Death-Attribute Charht,” said Borkus

Ceinally one of the types of ainst humans and take over this world It is possible that they were actually created by an evil God who rules over death

Either way, if Death-Attribute Charood idea to start avoiding Dungeons and Devil’s Nests where there are lots of Undead

It would be pandemonium if I was followed by hordes of Undead each tiht be an effective way to gather forces quickly, though

“So what are you going to do about that guy?” asked Vigaro, pointing at the on Savannah

“GYAOOOOHN!”

The Rank 6 Venos that were attached to its front limbs as it let out a roar

It was a Wyvern that had grown older and increased its Rank, becoain the ability to secrete deadly venom from its claws and the enormous spike at the end of its tail

Its intelligence was still just at the level of being relatively intelligent for a beast, and it was still incapable of spitting some form of deadly breath However, the speed and mobility of normal Wyverns couldn’t compare to those of the Venom Wyvern

It was said that it would be impossible even for C-class adventurers to defeat thisable to fly themselves

“I’ll try fighting it alone, just as we planned at the start” Vandalieu had been planning to use the on Savannah as a test for himself

Even if he leveled up and his Attribute Values increased, it would be less if he couldn’t put them to use in real battles He wouldn’t be able to confidently say that he had becoon Golem

For that purpose, he was to fight the Venom Wyvern one-on-one and see if he could defeat it Of course, without using a Mana Absorption Barrier to reround

Of course, even if he was able to defeat the Venouarantee that he would be able to avoid an instant death at the hands of the half-destroyed Dragon Golem

That Dragon Goleon that was currently flapping its wings threateningly in front of Vandalieu

Well, this is just to get an idea of how strong I aain any special abilities or anything fro down to the Dragon Gole to work out, I’ll just have to co

“Make sure you don’t die,” Borkus warned him

“Do your best, boy Do not forget that we are all watching over you,” said Zadiris

Receiving this encouragee the Venom Wyvern on his own

“I failed this time, too,” said Vandalieu

“Well, it can’t be helped I heard that C-class adventurers need to have a lot of talent or put in an incredible amount of hard work”

“Vandalieu works hard for his age, but it’s one-on-one… you’re a Taht?”

After failing for the fifth ti while developingother various things

He was currently attending abetween Bilde and the other arding childcare were being exchanged He was also practicing death-attribute ic at the same time

The foodkatsuobushi+ and wild vegetables, acorn powder udon and agar soaked in honey for dessert

He had first triedkatsuobushi+ around this ti failed products that had been e froo, but he had finally become able to make it successfully and reliably recently

I should have learnedfood Well, I’d never i katsuobushi+ in another world

He had tried to connect the pieces of his vague knowledge of the process from television and whatnot and executed it as best as he could, producing large quantities of failures as a result He got the feeling that the fillets were supposed to be smoked near a charcoal fire, but it was likely that he remembered it incorrectly or the method he remembered was some kind of unorthodox one

As for the udon, it had beenacorn flour that was sa bird that Gorba had captured to bind the flour together He had originally wanted to make ramen, but he had been unable to make lye water

TLN: Apparently this is soulation in the ra process

Sodiuredients of lye water; in other words, it is a special kind of alkaline solution Vandalieu was currently trying to think of ways he ht be able to in that Vandalieu had listened to hadn’t made their own lye water

He was trying to devise a method, so he would likely be able to make it in a few years’ time

Vandalieu had been surprised to learn that noodles didn’t exist in Lambda There was no udon, soba, ramen, not even pasta So when he had firstthe lines of, “This bread is quite long and thin It’s interesting that you’ve used boiling water to make it”

Well, that hy spreading the japanese custo udon and soba seemed like it would be fun

He had thought that there would be at least udon or pasta, but… Considering that there was no smoked food either, perhaps there were only simple foods and recipes in this world Perhaps the reason was that the people hadn’t had the freedom to invent them, or the fact that delicious monster meat and produce could be obtained fro the need to invent such food

And the agar used for the dessert was sousa, while the honey was, of course, from the Cemetery Bees Vandalieu had tamed… or rather, been forced to ta an enormous nest in Talosheim’s royal castle

Even though it inter, worker bees were being sent into the Devil’s Nests to produce honey Incidentally, the Ce the, such as that of Goblins

The honey of the Cemetery Bees had a powerful scent and rich taste The coar with this honey had beco redients, the inhabitants of Talosheim were forced to reconsider their opinions on the value of seaweed

They required effort to h the cast of a spell like miso and fish sauce

“Coive honey to the children?” asked Basdia

“This is honey that has had everything harmful to the body removed, so there’s no problem,” said Vandalieu

Vandalieu had used Sterilization and Disinfect to remove any components that could cause har its quality It would be ih he couldn’t change the fact that one would gain weight if they ate too much of it

“So I suppose it’s fine for them to eat”

“Uu~” The baby in her are noise

“But it’s still too early for you to eat baby food, Jadal” Basdia readjusted the way she was holding the baby, as reaching a hand out towards a plate full of honey-covered fruit, so that the baby was further away from it

Jadal was Basdia’s daughter who had been born towards the end of suh so nant, the birth and delivery had been surprisingly straightforward Now Jadal was growing quickly

Her gray-brown, puffy cheeks were very adorable

“Jadal-chan has grown big, hasn’t she?” said one of the otherher claws properly?”

“No, it seerown any yet,” replied Basdia “When did Varbie start growing them?”

“For Varbie, I suppose it was just before she turned a year old But sorow them as early as three months after they’re born, so make sure you trim them properly”

“Children can hurt themselves with their own claws, after all,” said another ?”

“Vandalieu started growing his claws after only three months, but he was already very smart by then,” said Darcia

“Really?! S”

“He was only a year old when he cae, so I think it’s a bit late to be surprised”

Darcia was s as she joined in on the conversation between the Ghoul mothers She had only been visible to Vandalieu and the Undead up until now, but now she was able to be seen by Basdia, Bilde and the others as well as converse with them thanks to the Visualization spell that Vandalieu had invented, though it did make her appear rather transparent

He had thought that Darcia would be less stressed if she could communicate with others more smoothly, so he had created the spell with that in mind

Well, since it also made the whip-marks and burns on her spirit visible, it would be difficult to use in human societies, unlike in Talosheim where everyone knew about her circumstances

Vandalieu wanted to resurrect her andhuman societies

Meanwhile, Vandalieu was playing with the Ghoul children nearby

“Nao~” Another of the Ghoul babies made a noise

As Ghoul boys had the heads of lions as soon as they were born, they looked just like kittens at this age They didn’t have paws, but they were very cute

Bone Man didn’t seem to be able to deal with thelad that he had instructed hi

“Papa”

“I’m not your papa,” said Vandalieu

I know you’re really attached to me, but I’m not your papa Let’s make this very clear

“Nii-nii”

“That’s right, Nii-nii is correct”

If by “Nii-nii” you ht I’m three years older than you

“Nee…”

“Not Nee-nee, Nii-nii”

I’m not your onee-chan

“The King is kind of girlish, I guess,” one of the Ghoul mothers commented “Like the shape of his head”

“You’re right; if he had the same skin color as us, you’d never think he’s a boy,” said another

As Ghoul men had the heads of lions, from Bilde and the other irl’s head However, it seemed that this didn’t apply for the Undead titans like Borkus or Zran who had large, robust bodies with beautiful muscles

“Muh… Once rowth period, I’m sure I’ll be like them, too”

And by the tis, a broad chest, abdohs thicker than a woman’s waist I’ll definitely be as macho as a Hollywood star

I have the Superhuth, so I’m sure of it

… Probably, I hope

Pauvina, with the other children riding on her back as if she were a horse, passed happily by Vandalieu as he was feeling strangely insecure about his future self

She was alh to look five or six She was currently obsessed with letting the other children ride on her back

She was definitely not showing off her future proht in front of Vandalieu

“Co the mid-boss?” asked Basdia

“Once I’e it for the sixth time,” replied Vandalieu

Vandalieu had repeatedly lost to the on Savannah

Of course, it wasn’t as if his life was put at risk during these fights In a fight to the death, he would win But si

He fought the mid-boss one-on-one This included the restriction of the use of Goleh Golem Transmutation

On top of that, he wasn’t allowed to use Mana Absorption Barrier to rob the mid-boss of its mobility

The tilass, which took roughly five minutes for all of its sand to fall

Vandalieu had fought the Venom Wyvern under these rules five times

He couldn’t land his attacks on the Venom Wyvern, and even if he did, they were ineffective, and five minutes would quickly pass He had repeated this process several times

Using Disinfect removed the venom inside the Venom Wyvern’s body, whichpoisoned until it produced the venoh to stop the Venom Wyvern’s direct attacks

But Vandalieu’s attacks hadn’t been able to deal a decisive blow, either

At first, he had tried using the no-attribute spell, Flight, to match his opponent, but he had been completely unable to keep up If it were just a matter of speed, he would have been able to reat amount of Mana, but the Venoht turns

To begin with, the no-attribute spell, Flight, was simply a spell that used Telekinesis to move the caster’s body It wasn’t atechniques of the Venom Wyvern that es
