Chapter 42: Fully Automated Monster Slaughter System: Completed Version
TL : Cnine
ED/PF :
Part 1
28th Day
「My levels have risen quite a bit, but…」
It didn't mean that I’ve suddenly become some expert warrior.
None of my skills cater to combat, and I hadn’t even trained myself mentally for a fight.
Well, not that I need that.
I had the Fully Automated Monster Slaughter System Prototype Revised Version, 『Ridiculously Easy and Amazing EXP Ariene』.
When the level rises to a certain point, adding the Pixla Saw 49 allows the EXP efficiency to increase even further.
Today I secured a few more Pixies and Slimes, and naturally, I have been giving them a front-row education at the slaughter site.
Without a bit of preliminary levelling, their durability was frankly questionable. That was simply the reality.
「Alright then. Time for you lot to earn your keep.」
Just because they were newcomers did not mean I would indulge them forever. I could not have new recruits loafing about. They need to work properly.
I assembled three additional sets of Pixla Saw 49 and connected them to the claws of the Skelittle Dragon…
「Would two rows be better than lining them up in a single file?」
Uhm.
I decided to arrange the Pixla Saw 49 units in a staggered formation, like a shredder.
I reassembled the Skelittle Dragon’s hands and set them carefully so that the Pixla Saw 49 units would not interfere with one another.
And thus emerged my newest masterpiece: six full Pixla Saw 49 sets integrated into one body. I christened it the Skedragon Shredder Pixla 49.
Naturally, I built it with future expansion in mind. Should I increase the number of Pixla Saw 49 units, installation will be swift and seamless.
More importantly, compared to earlier models, its destructive output has increased significantly. The rate at which monsters processed had improved dramatically.
Well, I have never had trouble with processing speed before, so the speed at which I receive EXP did not increase. In other words, it is not particularly meaningful.
「Alright, resume operation.」
At my command, Unicorns were thrown one after another into the Skedragon Shredder Pixla 49.
It appeared to be functioning properly. The Unicorns that were tossed in were cut into pieces and turned into smoke.
The Pixla 49 once used in the Ridiculously Easy and Amazing EXP Ariene has now evolved into the Skedragon Shredder Pixla 49. As a result, EXP efficiency has soared. Current acquisition stands at 396 times the standard rate.
「The system is complete.」
The Fully Automated Monster Slaughter System, Ridiculously Easy and Amazing EXP Ariene, powered by the Skedragon Shredder Pixla 49, has achieved functional completion.
Since it is no longer a prototype, the label Prototype Revised Version has been discarded.
「Hey, Chaos Dullahan. I’ll lend you a Giant Slime. Pin the captured Pixies into it to restrain them and bring back as many as possible.」
I gave the Pixie capture operation order to the Chaos Dullahan, who was currently acting as a dog sled.
「Ah, and grab some Slimes while you’re at it, will you?」
A Giant Slime should be able to contain about four Slimes without issue.
The reason I am issuing such an order was so that by not moving from here, I could keep the Ridiculously Easy and Amazing EXP Ariene running while increasing the number of Pixla 49 units to further raise EXP efficiency.
Moreover, with the SP gained from my continually rising level, I could allocate it to the Monster Taming Skill, so the number of monsters I could tame keeps increasing.
Now that I had completed an easy method, there was no reason not to use it.
It was also simply more efficient than me repeatedly going back and forth myself.
「Oh. Another level up.」
At present, I gain one level every two or three minutes.
Even having reached the level 400 range, levelling at this pace would be nearly impossible by normal methods. At first, I had thought being a Monster Tamer was unimpressive, but it turns out to suit me rather well.
If my job had been something like Swordsman, I would have had no choice but to keep running through the dungeon without rest in order to level up.
※Note: Please explore the dungeon in NORMAL way.
◇◇◇
Two hours later
The Chaos Dullahan returned, dragging behind it a Giant Slime riddled with countless pixies impaled into its body.
The Pixies that had been brought back were chirping noisily.
They were so loud that I pointed towards the Unicorns being continuously shredded to pieces by the Ridiculously Easy and Amazing EXP Ariene, directing their gaze. The Pixies followed my gesture. And fell into silent at once.
Even if they were not yet under the influence of the Monster Taming Skill, it seems I could make them obey to some extent.
Learnt another important life lesson.
「Still, that took longer than expected, did it not?」
Or did it?
Judging by appearance alone, there are quite a lot of Pixies stuck into the Giant Slime. At a glance, it looks to be around one hundred.
Assuming that there was one hundred Pixies captured, then it would mean just over one minute spent per Pixie.
When viewed that way, the time expenditure was hardly significant.

After surpassing Level 500, the increase in status values exploded.
The growth after reaching Level 400 had already been considerable, but compared to that, this increase was on an entirely different level.
Granted, the EXP required per level had ballooned to obscene proportions, so anything less would have felt like daylight robbery.
And then, at long last, the SP reward increased. To 2.
「Is the system taking me for an idiot?」
You demand this much EXP, and yet I only receive 2 SP each time I level up?
Even giving me 10 or 20 would not be unreasonable. Or rather, like when I reached Level 200, you could at least give me a bonus skill.
When Rag evolved, it ended up becoming a Lovelorn Human, which felt like a scam. If I start listing complaints, there would be no end to them.
I would like you to stop making a fool of me.
「Complaining won’t change anything.」
Since it couldn't be helped, I used Monster Taming on the pixies and slimes that Chaos Dullahan had captured and placed them under my control.
For now, it would be better to forget my anger and strengthen Ridiculously Easy and Amazing EXP Ariene.
「Oi, you lot. You’re bored, aren’t you? Go watch that.」
I tried to kill time for the newly acquired pixies by making them watch unicorns being thrown one after another into Ridiculously Easy and Amazing EXP Ariene and cut into pieces.
Why?
However, the new pixies flinched at me and looked as though they were about to cry.
◇◇◇
At the Dungeon Association Headquarters.
「Chairman. The duo of Brave Saint Sword Demon, Haruno and Jin, appear to have gone to Aomori within a short period of time」
「Together? A little getaway, perhaps?」
「No, sir. They are not that sort of pair. Their visits were staggered. Haruno returned, and shortly after, Jin departed for Aomori...」
They what?
Could it be... They found traces of the Demon King?
「In addition, Jin withdrew 2.5 million in cash from the Association’s account over there. Given the size of the amount, I thought it best to report it.」
「Understood. Well done.」
2.5 million?
As far as I remember, Jinreiji Jin of the Brave Saint Sword Demon was not the sort of man who squanders money.
If anything, he stands at the opposite extreme. While other High-rank Explorers burn through their earnings, he invests, calculates, conserves.
If it were not wasteful spending but necessary expenditure, then in what situation would 2.5 million be urgently required…?
Two weapons made of magic silver materials would cost about that much.
Especially since what Jin uses was not a ready-made product, it would cost roughly twice as much as a standard magic silver material weapon.
Could it be that he had fallen into a situation where he must use ready-made magic silver material weapons as though they were consumables?
「Vice Chairman. Investigate the flow of Jin’s funds. There is a possibility that the Demon King may launch another assault against humanity.」
「Y-Yes sir!」
Fifty years ago, the Demon King Lizzy Naal suddenly appeared and annihilated the United States Pacific Fleet.
If that terrifying man who calls himself the Demon Lord had appeared again...
