Reawaken the World

Yarata Scorpion (Part 1)

"About on his bike, towards the destruction of Kuzusuhara. His face looked grim as he rushed over due to the bad situation he was in."

 

"Alpha, who was flying parallel to him, gave him more information but it only caused his face to turn even gloomier."

 

[Akira, you have another rescue order. This is third.]

 

"Ts: this code → [....... ]mark to indicate special speech bubble 'nano' or mechanical device."

(“Another, yes !! I haven't even arrived at my next destination yet, you know !? Isn't that too much? !! ”) 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

 

[Even if you tell me, I can't do anything about it. Let's look forward to the reward we can get from all the monsters you will hunt today .. Since it's not an ordinary rescue request, they might even pay you in the form of Hunter Rank points.]

 

"It couldn't help but make a face saying that he didn't want it to happen."

 

(“But seriously, I don't want to lose money after working hard, you know !?”) 

 

"Akira, who once again put forward a request for help building the headquarters, was tasked with saving the other Hunters rather than taking control of the building like last time. It was because he took too long to take control of the building yesterday that he was assigned to another job today."

 

"Rescue work is a very tiring job. Although he didn't have to do much for every order, the rescue orders kept flooding in madly."

 

"About planning to take his work seriously. After all, it would not be a laughingstock if he was scolded for taking too long in yesterday's demand and failing miserably in today's demand. Therefore he sped up his bike as fast as possible to the next location."

 

"Destruction is filled with all sizes of debris and debris. With the help of Alpha's overwhelming control support, Akira would break through them, evade them from left and right, and sometimes even jump over them when he approached his destination."

 

"He has to face all kinds of situations during his work. Sometimes the people on the site were already in control of the situation when he arrived, some other time, the monster was already dead when he arrived, and sometimes the rescue request dispatcher has escaped from the scene after asking for rescue, thus leaving the monster to Akira to take care of."

 

"About working so hard and somehow being able to take care of all the orders until finally, his remaining order dropped to just 1."

 

"After he took care of the monster in one of his commands, Akira was seen exiting a building while breathing rough and looking very tired. He then took the medicine he bought from Shizuka's store and swallowed it. Even though it was just a cheap medicine, at least it could help him recover from fatigue."

 

"I guess it worked out a grumble."

 

(“... It does not really work. ”) 

 

[You can't compare this to the medicines you collected from the ruins, you know. Both the potential and the price are very different. You can try to take large doses of this drug to see its immediate effects, but it will require you to consume a great deal, you know?]

 

(“I guess this is why most hunters become dependent on drugs. ”) 

 

"There are all kinds and types of medicine for Hunters sold in the eastern district, this medicine is one of them. There are Hunters who take a lot of drugs every day. Bad medications can cause bad side effects or bad side effects. But the Hunters desperately wanted to survive to see the next day, so they had no other choice but to consume a large amount of medicine every day."

 

[The next order will be a good place to stop for a moment. Once done, let's take a short break, you can say that you need an ammunition refill in HQ.]

 

(“What should we do if they say no?”) 

 

[As I said before, my first priority is your safety. So I have no plans of letting you continue fighting monsters without getting any reload ammunition.]

 

(“ . All right, let's go and finish the next rescue order. ”) 

 

"If Alpha is angry and refuses to help Akira in this request, then it will be a disaster for him. He used that as an excuse and decided that he would rest after completing the next rescue order. He felt more comfortable with that reason and it was all according to his plan."

 

"About arrived in front of an abandoned building that was the location for his final rescue order. As he parked his bike in front of the building and looked up, he could hear gunshots and explosions coming from the 5th floor of the building."

 

(“There, yes?”) 

 

[It's good that they're alive. They seem to be fighting hard there. Let's go before they run out of ammo. I'll give you the route.]

 

(“I count on you.”) 

 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

[Send it to me.]

 

"About being able to see the indicator in his improved vision, he ran and followed the route indicated by the indicator as he walked into the building. The guide line for the route was calculated by Alpha, it showed the shortest and safest route to Akira's destination; after he scanned the area for monsters. Akira knew that that was why he felt at ease as he seeped through the area where he usually had to move carefully and slowly because of the monsters that might be lurking around."

 

"About being able to see the aftermath of the battle between the Hunters and the monsters scattered within the building. Currently, he did not see the corpse of Hunter, while on the other hand, he found many biological monster corpses due to the blood and flesh strewn about."

 

"About glancing at the corpse of the monster that still retained its original form. They looked like a mixture of spiders and scorpions with an outer skeleton."

 

"The so-called Yarata Scorpion has a habit of attaching objects from the surroundings to its outer skeleton. Thus they can become one with their environment and camouflage themselves."

 

"Their exoskeleton looks like metal debris or debris to Akira. There were countless bullet marks on their corpses, and bullets that did not even penetrate their exoskeletons were left around these corpses. That's proof of their super hard exoskeleton."

 

"Alpha then ordered Akira."

 

[Stop . Some of the Yarata scorpions are still alive. It would be dangerous if you go deeper without making sure that they are dead. It will take too long if you use an AAH rifle, so use a CWH anti-material rifle to finish it in one shot. ]

 

"Ts: this code → [....... ]mark to indicate special speech bubble 'nano' or mechanical device."

(“Accepted.”) 

 

"About immediately stopped and prepared his CWH anti-material rifle, but the Yarata scorpion did not move at all even after he did. It was hard to tell whether they were really dead or not. Some can't move due to fatal injuries, while some may just play dead while waiting for their prey to get close enough."

 

"Suddenly, Akira could see some of the Yarata scorpion bodies had become reddish. It was a scorpion that Alpha judged to be alive. Identifying all the surviving scorpions among all these immobile bodies of scorpions in an instant was impossible for normal humans. But Alpha can do that like it's nothing."

 

"It would be very dangerous to ignore this scorpion and move on. But shooting each one of them just to be safe would consume a lot of ammunition. But of course, it's a very different case if it's possible to distinguish a living scorpion from a dead one."

 

"About aiming his CWH anti-material rifle at the scorpion outlined in red and nesting one shot for each scorpion. The bullets that spewed from the muzzle of his weapon pierced through the hard outer skin of the scorpion, wreaking havoc inside their bodies, and instantly killing them. After Akira kills a dozen scorpions, suddenly one of them pops up and attempts to attack him. But the bullet reached first and killed him immediately."

 

(“That's it. ”) 

 

[Now it is safe]

 

"About then it blazed through the dead scorpion's corpse and rushed forward."

 

" *** "

 

"The Hunters were holding in one of the rooms on the fifth floor. They aimed their weapons at the only door to their room as they shot the monsters that came at them while making grim faces."

 

"One of them took out his rental terminal and shouted."

 

(“It's number 157 !! HQ !! Answer me!!”) 

 

(“This is the A4 division headquarters. What's wrong?”) 

 

(“Don't give me that again !! Where is my rescue ?!”) 

 

(“The rescue order has been sent and he's heading towards you now. Just wait right there. ”) 

 

(“How much longer do I have to wait? !!! We've waited long enough and no one's coming, you know !! ”) 

 

(“Refavers hunters respond to rescue orders in turn. There were too many rescue orders, we were basically inundated with them, you know. If you want to get angry, then you can curse the Hunters who sent rescue requests even though they were only fighting weak monsters. You actually get the short end of the stick because of those Hunters. So try to hold on, that's all. ”) 

 

(“A- Wait !! … Fuck !! They just cut the call !! ”) 

 

"He would slam the terminal on the floor, but another Hunter stopped him. It was the last terminal that still worked. The others were already destroyed during the fight."

 

"The door to their room was piled with dead Yarata scorpion corpses. Some of them can also be found indoors."

 

"The Hunters didn't even bother to check the corpses whether they were really dead or not. But they also don't have the leeway to shoot them to make sure that they're really dead."

 

"To make sure that they were dead, the Hunters would need to spend their precious ammunition to unlock their exoskeleton skeletons before giving a kill shot. They had also used all the grenades and other explosives when they escaped from the monsters into this room. They had no other choice but to defend their positions using their regular ineffective bullets until the rescue came. Thus, they were unable to dispose of their ammunition."

 

 

"It didn't take long before the Hunters there heard gunshots from outside their rooms. And they noticed that the gunshots were getting closer."

 

(“Saving ?!”) 

 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

(“K-we saved!”) 

 

"The Hunters cheered in excitement. But their cheers stopped immediately. The Yarata scorpion in the room pretending to be dead started moving again because of the gunfire. This caused the Hunters inside the room to fight desperately."

 

" *** "

 

"About trying to reach his rescue target as quickly as possible, but he is distracted by a scorpion pretending to be dead. Whenever he found a pile of dead monsters, he could always find scorpions that faked death mixed among the corpses. Among them, there was a scorpion that was still alive even after losing its mind. Akira would destroy their legs or tail, even though it would not kill them, it would be enough to at least make them unfit for battle."

 

"About grumbling as he changes his CWH anti-material rifle magazine."

 

(“They're too many !! What the fuck is this with these monsters ?! How many have I killed till now?”) 

 

[The last one is your 54th scorpion. This is too much.]

 

"Ts: this code → [....... ]mark to indicate special speech bubble 'nano' or mechanical device."

"Ordinary CWH anti-material rifle ammunition is much more expensive and has a higher puncture power than normal ammunition. They were usually used to fight mechanical monsters, so it was a bit of an exaggeration to use them on Yarata scorpions. But since his normal ammunition would not work against the Yarata scorpion's hard skeleton, so he had no choice but to use the expensive CWH ammunition."

 

"About frowning every time he pulled the trigger of his weapon, it felt like he was pulling money out of the muzzle of his rifle."

 

(“I have to pay for ammo with my own money, you know !! If the reward of this request is bad, I will not do this request again, okay ?! ”) 

 

[This request is basically not a monster hunting request. So unlike a regular monster hunting request where the reward is determined based on the type and number of monsters you kill, we won't know how much reward we will get until we receive it. Not to mention from yesterday's request, the base salary is only 20,000 Aurum.]

 

(“I've spent over 20,000 Aurum ammo, you know !! How much did my ammunition spend today ??! ”) 

 

[Let's put it aside until now until you complete the rescue order. You'll get killed if you're too frugal with your ammo right now, you know?]

 

(“I know!!”) 

 

"About rushing forward while tightly gripping his weapon. After killing about 20 more scorpions, he finally arrived near the room where the Hunters were holding. The sound of gunfire echoed nonstop from within the room."

 

"When Akira carefully walked into the room with his gun ready, he saw the Hunters fighting against the 2 Yarata scorpions. The normal ammunition the Hunters used couldn't deal much damage, they were only able to hold the two scorpions back from getting close."

 

"About quickly aiming at the scorpions and smashing their heads and tails. Their limbs were blown up and scattered throughout the room. The Hunters only noticed Akira after the two scorpions stopped moving."

 

(“Are you Hunter rescuer … ?! T-thank you God. ”) 

 

"The Hunters slumped to the floor, they were relieved and delighted. A Hunter who did not take down his guard came and asked Akira."

 

(“Are you alone?”) 

 

(“Iya . Has anyone else come? ”) 

 

(“No, you're the only one. ”) 

 

"About surprised to learn that he was the only savior sent to the Yarata scorpion's nest. But before he complained to the headquarters, he asked the Hunters."

 

(“.... What did you say to headquarters when you asked for help?”) 

 

(“I told them that we met a group of insect-like monsters, but then they told us to hold our land. To be honest, it's really dangerous. You really saved us, you know. ”) 

 

"About thinking that the headquarters might have misunderstood and thinking that they were attacked by some monsters like small sized insects. It is important to tell HQ with the correct information."

 

"Just like the other Hunters, Akira also wanted to get out of the building as soon as possible. So he yelled at the other Hunters."

 

(“Let's get out of here before those monsters come. The route I took to come here had to be kept safe. ”) 

 

(“You're right. Oi!! Hey, we left that place !! ”) 

 

"About prioritizing escorting Hunters out as soon as possible. The Hunters would suddenly stop whenever they saw a pile of Yarata scorpion corpses in the middle of the exit. Only after seeing no movement from that pile after Akira, who was leading the group, approached them, would they finally feel safe to walk past that pile."

 

"After leading the Hunters out of the building, Akira contacted the headquarters."

 

(“This is number 14. HQ, answer me. ”) 

 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

(“This is the A4 division headquarters. What's wrong?”) 

 

(“I've saved the Hunters and will return to the temporary headquarters now. ”) 

 

(“Don't come back, just send the Hunters home by themselves. You have to go to the next rescue order. ”) 

 

"Akira's face turned grim and shouted to the terminal."

 

(“You crazy? The building was filled with Yarata scorpions !! I won't go to the next rescue order without reloading the first ammunition, okay ?!”) 

 

"About waiting for an answer, but there was no reply from the headquarters. He could hear a slight commotion from the other side of the terminal. He then asked for a response while making a confused face."

 

(“.... Headquarters? Answer me . What's wrong?”) 

 

"When he did that, the headquarters staff asked him to return slowly and carefully."

 

(“Let me reconfirm. Are they really Yarata scorpions? Did it build a Yarata scorpion nest? ”) 

 

(“I don't know if it's a nest or not. But it was true that the building was flooded with a kind of monster with an extremely hard outer skeleton that would even reflect normal AAH rifle bullets. If you have any doubts, you can go ahead and send someone to inspect the corpse. ”) 

 

(“Forget what we just said. Return to temporary base as soon as possible. The terminal we gave you is still working, isn't it? ”) 

 

(“Punyaku is fine. But for the Hunters .. They are destroyed except for the one they use to contact you .. Or so they say. ”) 

 

"The headquarters staff suddenly shouted."

 

(“Don't lose them, no matter what happens !! Get back here as soon as possible !! And make sure not to damage the terminal any further !! That's it!!”) 

 

"Then HQ staff ended the call. Akira and the other Hunters looked at each other with confused and worried gazes."

 

"It was obviously confused, but Alpha then said to him with a smile that shook Akira because of his confusion."

 

 

[Account. There is no need to think about things that you do not understand right now. Let's go back now. Just look on the bright side, it's a good thing now that you have a reason to come back.]

 

(“...You're right.”) 

 

"Not wrong anymore. Something's going on. But since Alpha didn't make a serious expression, Akira thought it should be fine. So he decided to get rid of it for now."

 

"Then, Akira and the other Hunters returned to the temporary headquarters. The Hunters walked in front while Akira followed behind them with his bicycle. Since her work was done as she evacuated the Hunters from the building, Akira was able to return immediately. But the other Hunters begged him to accompany them on their way home."

 

 

"About tinkering with his information gathering device to properly detect the Hunters in front of him to get himself used to it. But it didn't go well. Although the Hunter was not too far ahead of him, the output of the information gathering device was unable to display the correct information. Akira muttered as he played with the settings of the information gathering device."
