I Reincarnated as a Hero
I'm a Hero
“Weak human body.”
Artpe has new knowledge. The price of this new knowledge was a single scratch on his knee.
“Artpe is always bad at running. Eh-wah I know you're running too hard. ”
The priest might return after contacting the palace. The pastor will soon try to find them, so they should be as far away as possible. However, Artpe could not go well, as he had an injury. This was why Maetel helped him walk. He's slowing down heroes. If he were still one of the Four Heavenly Kings, he would consider his own actions to be good deeds!
“This is not the time for ..”
“Artpe?”
Artpe had stretched the threads of Mana from his body, and his face was tangled as he felt a tremor through those threads. There was a creature born from the demon spring nearby. Basically, monsters are nearby ..
Three of them. These monsters lived in the forest near humans, who were not very vigilant. As expected of monsters living in such an area, they naturally occurred to level 3 goblins. These are monsters that always appear in stories that have heroes, knights or witches as the main characters. The main character had always defeated these monsters in the most miserable manner for the monsters. They were monsters of misfortune, who were eliminated earlier than the story.
Of course, even if the goblins were extremely weak, Artpe and Maetel had just left their city. They were only level 1, so the goblins were stronger than them. If Artpe and Maetel moved through the normal route, they would encounter slime or creatures weaker than squirrels. They could raise their levels by hunting them instead of facing goblins!
‘Luckily, I spread the thread of Where I Am. Of course, it would be best if I had Search-type or Barrier-type magic! ‘
Levels are everything in this world. If one had a low level, one was low in Mana. There was a limit placed on Skills and Spells, as one's soul was of low quality. One could attack the enemy's weak points using the Sliding Tackle skill, which was sharper than an attack with a knife, yet one would have difficulty giving a critical attack. Moreover, one would not be able to equip themselves with any good equipment!
“Maetel. You should stop helping me, and …. ”
“Hah? I can feel a strange energy. ”
Artpe was about to warn Maetel, but he muttered to himself before he could. Her pretty face frowned.
Artpe can see Maetel's abilities change in real time.
(Maethel)
(Level 1)
(Lv1 Detection)
“I can feel it more clearly now, Artpe. I'm pretty sure there's a creature coming at us. ”
“·····ah yes. I'll tell you the same thing. ”
Of course, there were also geniuses, who learned high-quality Skills, regardless of their level. This was what happened to the blond girl in front of him! He is a damned genius!
He let out a series of curses in a low voice, and he decided to look at it in a positive way. His only ally is a genius.
“They are goblins. They are all level 3. If it was a one-on-one fight, it might be a fair fight. However, the three of them. ”
“Do not worry. I'll protect Artpe. ”
His words are heroic!
However, he was wearing shabby clothes. It might have a Defense 0. It might even have a negative defense by looking at it. He has no other equipment. The girl said such words, while she clenched her dirty hands. It amplified the worry he felt.
“Stay, you can't fight them with your bare hands. That doesn't make sense, so please be patient. ”
“Iya nih.”
Artpe released Maetel's hand. He limped as he quickly searched around him. He could see the composition of the world, and information flowed in through his eyes. He concentrated his efforts on finding the sharpest or loudest object he could find. Fortunately, his efforts were immediately rewarded.
“Hoo. This should be fine. ”
(Branch of Burning)
(A small amount of naturally occurring Mana has hardened fiber and branch skin. It has the potential to be used as a firearm. It will break after a few swings.)
Sometimes there are artifacts that form naturally in nature. It was awkward compared to the weapons it was made from, but it was good enough to be used as a temporary weapon. He put the item into Maetel's hand as he spoke.
“Two come diagonally from the left, so you have to keep that side.”
“Hah? This branch feels a bit strange. I could feel the heat, but it was comfortable with him. ”
“What?”
Artpe observes Maetel. Sure enough, he saw the newly updated information.
(Maethel)
(Level 1)
(Mana Sensitivity Lv1)
“...iya here. I saw.”
“I don't know what just happened, but is it something good?”
“Of course. This is the achievement of a warrior. ”
This was not something ordinary soldiers could obtain. This was the achievement of a high rank warrior! Artpe did not know how many skills he could awaken by himself. He decided not to be surprised from now on. He picked up an ordinary stone, and he turned around.
Her knees hurt, but she ignored the pain. He focused on implanting Mana into the stone. The only thing he could do now was manipulate his Mana.
Where is basically pure energy. When he put Mana into this very simple stone, it would be a useful weapon that he could throw once.
Fortunately, Artpe had a ridiculous amount of Mana considering he was level 1…. There was so much that he wondered if his status as a hero had a causal effect. He had inserted enough Mana to fill the stone, yet he still had plenty.
The stone was filled with magic, and started emitting a blue light. If he let it go, Mana would slowly come out. However, if he threw it, it would cause a weak explosion. That was enough to kill a level 3 goblin.
“Artpe?”
“I told you there were three, right? Don't worry about that coming towards us from behind. You just focus on the ones coming from the front. ”
“You even know where the monster came from. Artpe is awesome! ”
“Look ahead.”
“Iya nih!”
If one of the rascals had a long-range weapon, they would have to escape. However, this was a forest in the forest. This was a beginner zone where goblins were not allowed to hold any advanced weapons.
As expected, it didn't take too long for the laughing goblins to push the brush. Goblins were not better equipped than them. They only have a club that looks solid.
(Goo-heh-heh. You guys look delicious! Guys!)
“Mati!”
There was no way he would let a level 3 small fish in front of him! When the goblin assigned to Artpe came into range, he quickly threw the stone. The stone flew right, and the head of the goblin exploded. Goblin fell upside down. It was a one shot kill.
(Kee ... kee-eek!?)
(Weak people!?)
“Hyahhhhp!”
When their comrade responsible for the attack died in such an absurd manner, the goblins were shocked! At that moment, the hero attacked. Unlike his title as a hero, he used cowardly tactics by waiting for the opening!
“I feel like everything will work if I swing this!”
“Countable gamblers destroy themselves by trusting their instincts!”
“Hoo-ahhhhp!”
However, unlike Artpe's worries, the wooden branch Maetel swung down with incredible force and speed. It had an impact on the goblin's arm. The goblin dropped the stick, and fell down while screaming in pain.
Level 3 monsters were defeated by level 1 heroes! It's a shame; an event for the entire goblin race.

(Level 1)
(Science of the sword Lv1)
“Artpe. Somehow I feel stronger! ”
“Ah. I-i know. ”
As of now, Maetel has only swung branches during her role-playing as a hero. He had no real battle experience, yet he learned swordsmanship easily.
Still, the Sword Arts were not as impressive as the Mana Sensitivity!
Artpe gave an apathetic answer as he picked up another stone.
From just one branch swing, Maetel had gained courage and skill. He bravely attacked the remaining goblins.
“Monster scary! Don't torture Artpe! ”
(Kwahhhk. That is a scary human being! Ohhhhk!)
This attack was much stronger than before. He was only level 1, yet he had Mana Sensitivity. Maetel instinctively emitted heat from within the wood branch. He burned the club goblin, and he hit the head of the goblin on the head!
The goblin could not help but endure the terrible pain, and it died.
It was hard to tell which one was that terrifying monster!
(Maethel)
(Level 2)
(Mana Control Lv1)
“Ooh. Ooohs. ”
When the fire was removed from the wood branch, it ate all the MP contained within that branch. It turned into ashes in Maetel's hands, and the ashes were scattered by the wind. Somehow, it was a sad sight for him.
“I really killed them.”
It was as if Maetel had devoted all of her energy. He sat on the spot staring at his hand.
It was a very short fight, but he had never experienced anything so powerful. He went back and forth between the life and death boundary. He ended his life with his hands! He would not be able to forget this surprise so easily.
Artpe also knew what he was going through. He's understood.
Yet…
“Artpe. L'm…. I win?”
“No.”
Artpe gave a cold reply, and he threw the stone he had taken just a moment ago. In a short time, the stone had taken up a lot of Artpe’s Mana. The stone swept near Maetel as it flew like the wind. Before it could swing its staff towards Maetel, the head of the goblin exploded.
Maetel saw the goblin's body stumble to the ground. He finally realized his presence.
“Kyahhhk!”
“You will not win until all your enemies are killed. You have to remember it. ”
“….I forgot.”
The goblin he attacked first only suffered a broken arm from his first attack. It has dropped its club, but it lives on. Maetel had forgotten the first goblin when she faced the other goblins. Moreover, he was drunk by the fact that he had killed a goblin. The battle was not over yet, yet he was already out of it!
Maetel looked at Artpe blankly. He spoke coldly towards her.
“Build, Maetel. We were no longer children, living on the village fence. ”
“Artpe ·····.”
Other 12-year-old girls can act like this now, but a hero doesn't have that luxury. Even if Maetel's good intentions towards him were to decline, she wanted him to have an evil nature.
Heroes in his previous life were too soft.
He's softer than ripe cheese for half a year! Instead of giving him a curriculum for the talented, he needed to create a hero, one that was cold and spiteful!
“... Too cool.”
“Hah?”
However, his intentions were slightly off the mark. Maetel's cheeks flushed red as she dashed towards Artpe. He grabbed both of his hands, and he began to shout excitedly as he jumped.
“Artpe is too cool! You really are like a hero! ”
“You are a hero! Ah, I guess I'm a hero now too! ”
Even when he said it, his words gave him goosebumps. Artpe could not think of anyone else in this world, who was no match for the role of a hero like him! On the other hand, it seemed like Maetel viewed Artpe as a cool hero.
“I want to be like Artpe!”
“No, you won't.”
Artpe spoke with a serious face. Maetel's spirit finally diminished a little.
“By the way, you should never expose yourself until all your enemies are dead. Even fallen enemies should be checked. I want you to check even if the enemy's throat is cut off. Do you understand?”
“Ya I understand. I'll remember it! …. So the enemy doesn't die even if his throat is cut? ”
Artpe clicked his tongue at Maetel's naive question. It would not be called a monster if it died so easily!
“I'm not sure about these little fish, but then, there's the bastard, who survived, even after being cut into 17 pieces. The criterion to find out if a monster died was to use Mana. ”
“Mana?”
“You have handled Mana not long ago, and you have also acquired skills ... I will teach it to you slowly.”
“Iya nih!”
“However, there are other things I should teach you first.”
Artpe approached the dead goblin, and he knocked on the corpse. Suddenly, a yellow coin fell from his body. When he saw this, Maetel's eyes turned around.
“Why do monsters have money!?”
“That's a very good question.”
Artpe kicked the two remaining goblins, and he took the coin. He smiled freshly as he spoke.
“I also don't know the answer!”
This was the moment when the hero found out about the Plunder.
