<strong>Disposed Hero</strong>
When I woke up, I went to the lower area to kill monsters .

[......... . ]
How much time has passed?
One week?
Three days?
No— I wouldn’t be surprised even if only half a day has passed .
My sense of time is not functioning properly .
The only thing that could remind me of the passage of time is when I become hungry or sleepy .
There’s also the leather bag but... I felt that the transferring function of it wasn’t back on time .
At first, I had been wondering if this function could be reused after 24 hours have passed .
However, it seems that the time where it restores itself varies .
I have used the leather bag three times since I have started leveling .
Tuna-mayo onigiri .
A pack of tuna sashimi .
And a tonjiru filled in a plastic container .
I feel like this sashimi had been well refrigerated before it was transferred here .
This tonjiru also look like it’s just freshly made .
The drinks I acquired with them was one green tea and one energy drink .
Incidentally, there were no drinks added when the sashimi was transferred .
It seems that food and drinks are not always transferred as a set .
It was a pity that there was no soy sauce, but the tuna was delicious .
Also, the tonjiru was a new pattern in the way it was transferred .
It was not one of those so-called packaged products like those that came from convenience stores .
Who ever made the food transferred here... I don’t have time to think about it now .
In any case, the problem with food was cleared away as the leather bag provided me a solution .
The leather bag can probably be used repeatedly .
I am regularly supplied with food and drinks by the leather bag .
This is enough for now .
<strong>v</strong>
After getting some sleep, I’ve also tested the range of my skills .
There was a subtle difference between and .
It appears that have a shorter range .
On the other hand, it feels like I could cast even if I’m 20m away from my target .
However, the paralysis that would reach them would be completely powerless .
I am worried that the monsters would be able to move with that subtle paralysis on them .
It seems that with that amount of power, it could only make them cry out a bit .
I’ve also verified the range of the one that makes all of my damage output, .
have a slightly shorter range than .
Measuring the range of was easier since the opponent can’t move .
And there, the first range verification had been completed .
<strong>v</strong>
I kept on killing monsters .
Before I noticed it, the monsters in the nearby area had already stopped showing up .
There is no sign of their presence anywhere .
Was it because I had killed them all?
Or are they hiding like those minotaurs and birdheads?

My level has already went beyond 1000 .
It has risen quite a bit .
If I go down another level again, I probably won’t have enough time to return to my home base .
Furthermore, the monsters in the upper areas were stronger than those monsters from below .
I look up .
[Is it about time I resume on climbing up towards the grounds above?]
I returned back towards the ruins area so that I could prepare .
<strong>v</strong>
Buchi~
I tug on the vines I’ve got from the ruins .
I’m entwining two vines together to ensure it’s strength .
I pull on it again so that I could check its strength .
[This strength... should be okay . ]
I tie the vine around the opening of the leather bag .
Tightly...
I hang the vine over my shoulder .
[Okay, this looks good . ]
This makes it that I’m wearing the leather bag over my shoulder .
This seems to be easier to carry than holding it with one of my hand . (T/N: so, the leather bag doesn’t have strap . I thought it had one already . )
I still have some leftover food and drinks .
These were now inside the leather bag .
[Well then, shall we depart?]
Before I went to bed, I soaked a part of my uniform with tea and used it to wipe my body .
Thanks to that, I could feel that my skin is a little cleaner .
I walk out of the room .
[Along with the fact that I’ve reached this part of the ruins... I’d like to believe that the ground above is closer now . ]
I walk through the ruins area where any signs of monsters appearing have disappeared .
There must be a slope somewhere here that should lead me above this place .
When I was scouting here before, there’s something I saw that brightened me up .
[There are subtle traces of human hands here on the road and along the walls... hmm?]
It was about time I come out of this ruins .
In the shade of the darkness, where vines were tangled together...
Around there... isn’t there something in there?
A deep hole that looks like it’s leading somewhere .
It’s at that time I’ve noticed it’s existence .
The passage towards the top of the ruins was hidden behind the vines .
I scratch my head .
[It seems that I’m not attentive enough...]
I should be careful not to overlook something like this again .
I pass through the vines .
What I found there is a jewel I’ve been familiar with .
[The twenty-fifth room, huh...]
I inject magic energy into the jewel .
The door opens up after I injected it with enough magic energy .
[......... . . ]
Did I just use 5000 MP for this door?
It seems that this place is different from the other doors .
I step into the room .
I smell something like flour .
Covering my mouth with my hands, I proceed inside the room .
The leather bag illuminates throughout the room .
This is quite a lonely place .
It’s quite obvious, but there’s no sign of life here .
The furniture installed here is almost the same as the other rooms .
This may not be a special room after all .
Or rather, can this room be considered a failure of a room with that kind of MP expenditure?
However, I’ve found something .
It’s a skeleton wearing a robe .
I turn my leather bag towards the skeleton .
With the wall against its back, the skeleton is sitting cross-legged .
[I see... this one’s a skeleton of a disposed person who frantically tried to climb out of here . Good work in reaching here, or so I want to say... I mean... it must have been really difficult, right?]
I tried to part away the robe .
The bones around the stomach were severely broken .
Did he lose his life because of this injury?
After offering a small prayer, I started rummaging around the skeleton’s luggage like how I’m accustomed to do whenever I see corpses .
And there, I noticed an old parchment that has fallen near the hand of the skeleton .
[Now that I think about it, can I even read the letters of this world?]
I place the leather bag nearby as I spread out the old parchment .
I run my eyes over the parchment .
[...it’s readable . ]
I breathe out a sigh of relief .
It’s good that I can read this .
It seems that summoned heroes like me were able to read the letters of this world .
[Well, what does this say...?]
“Is there anyone who would be able to read this in this disposal ruins? Ah, let me introduce myself first . My name is Angrin Berthrad . People used to call me “The Great Sage Angrin” . However, I feel like the one they used to call me was better . I was used to be called—“
[Eh?]
“The Dark Hero, Angrin . ”
