Awakening to a Special-Grade Explorer
Vol. 4 - Ch. 147 - Stat and New Equipment

The night of that day, Tenji wrote down the result of his analysis in the secret hell notebook.

He lifted the cup from the table, savouring the lemonade given by Mister, while jotting down his observations about level 7.

The changes were just as usual.

The required experience points had jumped fivefold, and each stat had increased by a thousand on average. The number of Hell Regions had also increased to 1220, and with it, the number of Hell Beasts had significantly increased. He was now in command of 40 goblins, 590 Flame Demons and 610 Snow Demons which has increased his attack and defence stat values to an unprecedented level.

If his guess was right, his physical abilities now should be on par with first-grade explorers. He considered a stat value of over 7000 the threshold for first-grade explorers.

At the very least. his physical characteristic had finally caught up to the abilities of Fuyuki---a full fledged first-grade explorer. He might not be a match of him in technique, but he believed that day wasn't far either way. For now, his attack and defence slightly surpass his.

"And the rest is... <Flame Demon’s Hand Ink>, <Snow Demon's Barrier>, <Flame Demon's Brooch>, <Snow Demon's Ring> and <Luck UP Ground Lantern Cherry>. I just need to verify now, that's all...yawn...guess time to call it a day." (T/N - Adding Lantern to ground cherry to give a more definitive shape.)

Yawning, he wiped away the tiny tear that involuntarily pooled in due to prolonged focus and once again looked at the Book of Enma. To be more precise, at the listing of fourth-grade 'Flame Demon's Hand Ink' among the 'Flame Demon' hell weapon series.

The weapon came with the passive skill 'Flame Crypt' which had a 25% chance to add the effect of Hellfire (500% damage bonus) to attacks---an upward version of the same skill but with 300% bonus damage with 10% probability from Red Demon Glove.

'Flame Demon's Brooch'---another addition to the hell weapon---further improved the operability of Hell Weapons with the skill 'Roaring Flame', in addition to the power of flame and speed. Unlike its downward version, 'Red Demon Necklace', that simply assisted in operability of Hell Weapons.

In 'Snow Demon' hell weapon series, the newest edition was Snow Demon's Barrier which comes with active defence skill 'Arbuda'; a voice based defence skill which conjures three walls to defend the user when activated. The nature of the skill made it a bit tricky to use, so he would probably have to include this in his training regime. (T/N - Arbuda is first region of cold hell in some place)

Another addition to it, 'Snow Demon's RIng' also comes with the skill 'Icy Reflection'. Its effect was simple, to make the conjured ice wall nearly invisible. That said, the associated MP consumption increases in proportion to the volume of ice created. During the experiment, concealing just a single ice wall guzzled 2000 units of mana.

He would probably not need that skill for the time being, not unless he could find another way to use it.

And in the last was 'Luck UP Ground Lantern Cherry' in the Hell's Old Lady shop. There were now four types of ground cherry including this one.

"Hmm, nothing surprising. If there's anything though, than it's just---"

Yes, the improvement accompanying level was completely within his grasp. 'And now, it's finally the moment for me to take my ground huh,' Tenji thought. His words hinted at something.

He recalled his promise with Leon before he arrived here.

------Expect no more support from me once you have become a first-grade explorer. Of course, you have my full support until then. But anything after that is your circus to handle.

Today, that condition was almost fulfilled.

"I will now be independent with this milestone. Ah, but there's still my goal to hit the 75th floor. ......Right! I should inform him as well!"

Recalling that, Tenji hurried to dial Leon's number. He picked his smartphone, brought up his contact number and tap'd on the dial button. Ring-Ring-Ring It rang for a while, however there was no response from the other side.

"......Shucks, the usual huh. I really wanted to talk with him today at least. Kaidou-san then."

A bitter smile crept on Tenji's face almost reflexively as he dialled the number of Kaidou, an ordinary person who's the go-to between to get in touch with Leon.

　†　†　†

------At the same time as Tenji tried to contact Leon.

Leon Hyakuse was sitting bundled up in a blanket at the summit of 'Mont Blanc,' a part of the world famous mountain range in the Alps, located in France and Italy. Of course, there was no way for him to take a call there.

"......Dare of you to make me wait, Aubraka. I will make sure you get the taste of my cold fist properly."

Puffing out foggy breath, Leon sat there waiting for 'him.'
