"Akira was talking to Alpha about what happened in the Higaraka Residence Ruins while doing the treatment for his weapon inside his room."
(“So, what exactly is the girl?”)
"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."
[It looks like it's some kind of holographic worker from a company. I think there's some sort of device inside the basement that connects it to the old world domain. But judging by the fact that you have to stand in a certain location to activate it and its connectivity is limited, I believe that the device cannot be used by the general public.]
"Ts: this code → [....... ]mark to indicate special speech bubble 'nano' or mechanical device."
"about confused."
(“.... Workers, yes? But it's just a hologram, right? ”)
[In this world, there are different types of jobs that will open up if you can see and accept their existence.]
(“Is that so?”)
[Yes, right. If you want proof, you're looking at it right now.]
"Alpha then smiled and pointed to herself. Akira immediately understood his point and nodded."
(“You're right.”)
"In the secret room in the basement of the mansion, he clearly saw a servant girl appear out of nowhere, even though it was just an image. But Akira, who was lacking knowledge on the subject completely ignored the facts, or rather, he paid no attention to that fact at all."
"Alpha also did not tell Akira everything. If he shows some sort of reaction to the servant girl, Alpha might start wearing the maid uniform from tomorrow, but that's not the case."
"Alpha then continues."
[About, at least I'll warn you about this, don't tell anyone about the device inside the basement that could connect to the old world. And don't even think about taking it and selling it, okay?]
(“Why? Isn't that an important device? That might give me a lot of money, you know? ”)
"Alpha made a serious face when she strongly warned Akira."
[Don't do it any way. ]
"About a surprise when that simple question was answered with a stern warning. But looking at Alpha's expression, he understood that there must be a legitimate reason for it."
(“Alright, I won't tell anyone and I won't try to sell it. But can you at least tell me why? ”)
[Anything that can help you access old world domains is a very valuable object. Because of this, they may ask you how and where you got it. So there is a chance they will find that you are someone who is connected to the old world domain of your answers to those questions. I'm thinking that such a thing wouldn't have happened if you didn't know that you were someone who was connected to the Old World, and that's why I didn't tell you until now. But now that you know, you should keep it a secret no matter what. If someone finds it, you will die in a painful way.]
"After that, Alpha explains to Akira about the dangers of being someone connected to the old world domain. In the worst-case scenario, people would keep him alive as a test subject for all kinds of experiments, and even if he died, people would carefully remove and dissect his brain. Akira's face paled when he heard that."
(“... To be honest, I would choose not to know if I had a choice. Wait, no, I think it's better now that I know, right? Wait, fuck it, it's better if I don't know! ”)
"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."
[It's actually pretty safe if you keep it a secret, you know. I will also give my support. And not to mention that there are people who continue to lie by saying that they are connected to the old world domain. So I think it will be fine as long as you are careful.]
"Ts: this code → [....... ]mark to indicate special speech bubble 'nano' or mechanical device."
(“I don't understand why people lie about being one of them?”)
[Connected people tend to be very effective at analyzing information. So there are people who want to market their name as skilled hackers by lying so. Although, I think real connected people would never do such a thing.]
"About a long sigh as he lowered his head. He looked depressed for about 10 seconds before he suddenly lifted his face."
(“Good then! It was because I connected with the old world so that I could meet Alpha and survive until now !! I am a lucky boy !! That's what I took away from the situation !! ”)
"About saying that out loud to convince himself. After that, he looked much more positive and enthusiastic than before. Although it looked somewhat forced, he simply pushed it with pure determination."
"Alpha smiled as she looked at Akira."
[I guess, it's great that you can handle the shaking so quickly, but your voice is too loud. It's okay for now, but it would be bad if someone heard that, you know? Be careful in the future.]
"About who had just regained consciousness shook back when he asked Alpha."
(“... I-it is really dangerous. T-but it's okay, i-really? ”)
[It's okay. No one should have heard that and I didn't detect any eavesdroppers. I've checked everything, so don't worry.]
"About a sigh of relief. Judging from that, Alpha knew that he understood the seriousness of the situation as he smiled in satisfaction."
[Now. Let's stop talking about scary things here and talk about today's results.]
"Alpha then began to explain about the results of today's exploration."
"The servant girl Akira saw came from a hologram worker company advertising its services through an old domain. That suggests that even now some relics of the present age are still connected to old-world facilities. Any facility accessible through relics is essential for people in the eastern district. After all, they would allow them to extract old-world knowledge, technology, and products from such facilities."
"Anything that allows access to the old world domain is considered a priceless object in the eastern district. It is no mistake that selling it to the Hunter Office or to a Government Company will give you a large sum of money."
"About also understanding its value from hearing Alpha's explanation. But he didn't think that it would give him a profit."
(“... I understand that it is a great discovery, but I don't see how it will give us profit. After all, if I told anyone about that place or device, they might notice that I was connected to the old world, and that would be really bad, right? ”)
[There are many ways on how to safely use our findings. The device was connected to Lion Steel Corp., even though it was an old-world company that no longer existed, it still had active facilities even now. It seems that Lion Steel Corp sells their services through information terminals installed in different places and I can extract the location of this terminal and the branch offices owned by the company.]
"Now that Akira could see clearly how it would benefit him, Akira seemed less tense."
(“...I saw . So we're going to look for relics in those places, right? ”)
[Yes, that's it. Of course, this location was in the ruins of the old world. If the other Hunters have not found it yet, you may be able to find a large number of relics there.]
(“Good!! Let's go !! ”)
[Stop there, at least wait until you have a special vehicle to explore the desert. Since you have to go to faraway ruins, it would be dangerous to ride a bike, not to mention, it would be difficult to take home all the relics you might find on a bike.]
(“So I still have to wait, yeah. But well, now it's better because I have a clear goal. I guess I'll work hard so I can get the vehicle right away. ”)
"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."
" – * – * – * – "
"About being on the bus leading to Kuzusuhara's destruction. There were many other Hunters on the bus, some of them were amateur Hunters like him, while some of them exuded the aura of veteran Hunters. They're all at the same request from Hunter's office."
"Kugamayama city management decided to build a frontline headquarters in order to effectively explore the deeper parts of Kuzusuhara's destruction. They first planned to build a base near the outskirts of the Kuzusuhara ruins before establishing a communication line to the deeper parts of the ruins."
"As the construction of the base is underway, they will also use heavy equipment to remove debris blocking the road to deeper parts of the wreckage. Once the debris is removed, it will open up a way to dispatch transport vehicles and tanks. Of course, the monsters that roamed the inside of the ruins were powerful monsters, but if they could send tanks and humanoid soldiers, the, it would help them fight against that monster and carry relics that were difficult for normal people."
"Exploring destruction will accelerate the development of the city and bring profit to the city. That's why they'll do all these preparations to explore the ruins."
"The request Akira took was to help protect the construction of the base. It basically consists of protecting the workers and securing the area. After all, building a base isn't Hunter's job."
"About listening to the explanation given to the Hunters inside the temporary headquarters. After that, the hunters would be assigned to their jobs depending on their abilities and interests."
"Staff distributed the rental terminal for the job and explained how to use it."
(“We will provide our instructions through this terminal. The terminal also contains a transmitter so you can check for the presence of other Hunters if you open it from the terminal. So be careful not to think of other Hunters as monsters and shoot each other. And also, even if we are in ruin, do not seek relics. I'm not going to tell you as far as not to pick up the relic you found accidentally, but we're not here to collect the relic. We'll be in trouble if you're more focused on finding relics, and don't forget that we're also always tracking your location. So, make sure not to stand in the same location for long periods or do anything that could arouse suspicion. Finally, there should be a number behind the terminal, we will contact you based on that number, so be sure to check it out as well. That's it . You can go to the ruins after you finish your preparation, you just need to follow the map navigation in Terminal.”)
"About then flips the terminal and checks the number. Akira and Alpha immediately smiled bitterly as they looked at the number."
(“It looks like this number really likes me. ”)
[. You're right.]
"Ts: this code → [....... ]mark to indicate special speech bubble 'nano' or mechanical device."
"The number attached behind the terminal is 14."
"When Akira followed the navigation from the terminal, he arrived at a gap surrounded by many collapsed buildings. He then pulled up his terminal to answer a phone call from Hunter's Office staff."
(“This is the A2 division headquarters. Number 14, can you hear me? ”)
(“This is number 14, I can hear you. ”)
(“Control the building in front of you. Explore and make a map of the building, don't forget to take out any monsters you find. The terminal has an automatic mapping function, so you just need to check all the rooms inside that building. There's also a good chance that if you leave a dead monster's corpse, they might attract another monster, I know it sucks, but take them all the way to the building's entrance. ”)
(“What if they are too big or too heavy for me to carry?”)
(“Then let us know and we will send a special team to help you. ”)
(“Accepted.”)
"About then ended the call and went inside the building in front of him, but suddenly Alpha stopped him."
[Wait, this is a great opportunity for exploration training, so let's do that too.]
(“But, wouldn't that make me slower?”)
"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."
[That's why you should do this carefully but not too slowly. If you didn't have that much skill level, you wouldn't be able to survive in the colorless fog, you know? After all, my detection ability reduces inside the colorless fog. So, you have to rely on your own skills when that happens. We can use this opportunity to prepare for such a situation.]
"Exploring without Alpha detection capabilities and support from information gathering devices would be a nightmare for beginners like Akira. So he couldn't help but frown at the possibility."
(“.... Fog is colorless, yes? All right, tell me how to do this. ”)
"About making his determination and entering the building."
"About beginning to explore the ruins from the first floor. Some floors in the building were covered in dust while others were not. It was because of the Hunters who had been searching for the buildings and monsters that roamed within them. He noticed that some of the walls inside the building had already been destroyed."
"About proceeding cautiously as he tried to walk without making a sound. He explored the building by moving from one cover to another. He would stop from time to time to listen to his surroundings. He then readied his weapon as he swiftly walked into a room. He explored the abandoned building as if he was stepping into a monster's nest. While doing so, he regularly received warnings from Alpha, so he would quickly improve the way he moved whenever Alpha warned him. Therefore, Akira moved slowly but surely improved."
"About finally finished exploring the first floor. And of course, it takes longer than usual."
(“I know it was expected, but I did spend a lot of time. I can see now why they told the Hunters not to go looking for relics. ”)
[This is an important skill for a Hunter to be able to explore an area safely and quickly. And the only way to learn it is to train and improve your skills little by little. Especially when you are facing monsters with the ability to disguise.]
(“Capability?”)
[It was an ability that would keep monsters undetected. There are some monsters that have leather or optical armor. They can become one with their environment or remain undetected in shadow.]
(“.... That optical disguised monster, how can I detect it?”)
[Actually there are many methods to detect it, you can look for optical anomalies or analyze the surrounding sounds. An advanced information gathering device or someone who specializes in information analysis will be able to detect them without any problems. This will allow you to avoid unnecessary battles or to get the first shot if you want to kill them, so you can safely and quickly search for relics.]
(“It sounds like Elena-san's job. I'm sure Elena-san is very skilled in it. ”)
[Yes, that's right. But even a skilled Elena-san would have a hard time inside the colorless fog. After all, a colorless fog would render the information gathering device useless.]
"I guess remember when he saved Elena and Sara. At that moment, the colorless fog did not affect him much thanks to Alpha's support. While on the other hand, the people who ambushed Elena and Sara could not detect Akira at all because the fog was colorless."
(“Colorless fog is very dangerous. Is there a way to solve it?”)
[You can buy an advanced information collection device that can barely work inside a colorless fog. But I heard that it was very expensive and less powerful compared to normal information gathering devices at the same price. In addition, you can rely on exploration skills rather than relying on information gathering devices. So there you go, that's why you better work hard from now on, okay?]
(“Accept . Next is the second floor .. By the way, how many floors are in this building? ”)
[8 floors.]
(“... I still have a long way to go now. ”)
"About muttering as he continued to the second floor."
"It took about 3 hours for Akira to finish exploring the entire building. After that, Akira went to the roof and rested. But suddenly he heard a cannon from a distance. It came from Hunters who fought with several monsters. Akira didn't find any monsters in the building due to pure luck."
