Chapter 15 - “It’s me, Kakeru. I’m at ○○ right now…” “Land Shark Main Office.” As the name implied, it referred to outfits that negotiated with landowners and tenants to acquire plots for development. However, in DW, land sharks differed from the usual sort. Most DW land-shark outfits terrorized landowners and residents, snapped up plots by force, and, once they’d consolidated whole blocks, they’d resell them for colossal profit. Among the land sharks in the Central Kingdom,…-

Chapter 14 - Depending on Degree and Circumstances, Extortion Becomes Robbery Resulting in Injury. Life Imprisonment Is Possible, You Know (2) “R-Robbery resulting in injury… you’re kidding, right?” At the officer’s words, even Serizawa from Student Guidance and the Vice Principal Endo looked stunned. When I pushed back, the officer shook his head. “Unfortunately, as things stand, that’s what it is. Like I said, a victim’s report has already been filed in this case. The loss is…

Chapter 13 - Depending on Degree and Circumstances, Extortion Becomes Robbery Resulting in Injury. Life Imprisonment Is Possible, You Know (1) The day after we shook down that plain-looking old guy for his scratch ticket, all five of us got summoned by Serizawa from Student Guidance during lunch break. It happened the moment we reached school to line up with lunchtime. “Do you even understand what you’ve done!?” Serizawa from Student Guidance, our fifty-something P.E. teacher with a…

Roughly four hours later, they stood before a large hall. Just as Shin had felt, the dungeon’s scale was vastly larger than in the game. Without the map function, who knew how long it would have taken. They stopped at the threshold of the corridor to the hall. “This screams ‘boss room,’ doesn’t it?” Shin agreed with Milt, who had been peering inside. “Hard to see it as anything else. I can already spot stairs beyond. Likely the type where, once you step in, you can’t leave…-

◆Chapter 2◆ Rustle. “Eek.” “Hey, Nikka. Don’t cling to me. I can’t walk.” “But I heard something.” “Of course you heard something. You’re such a scaredy-cat.” The next morning, before the villagers were up, we entered the forest. We waited near the edge until the sky grew bright enough, then started deeper in. At first, the sunlight kept the woods bright, but the farther we went and the denser the trees became, the darker it got. Even so, there was still…-

Chapter 3 - Twin Stars and Twin Wings By the time the surroundings were fully dark, Nero and I had returned home. After leaving the Magic Academy, we made detours to several places together, so we got back late. The promotion-exam team had surely returned to the guild already. Since some might be asleep, we eased the front door open as quietly as possible. “Welcome home.” “Whoa! L-Lady Serina?!” The moment I opened the door, Serina was waiting there, which startled me. She always…-

Chapter 12 - If I Don’t Do It, Who Will!? Blowing the Whistle at the Police and the Labor Standards Office! —9:00 a.m. Wearing the tattered clothes that those high-schoolers had shredded with their relentless beating, I stepped into the police box*, feeling the officers’ curious stares prickle against my skin. (TN: A small neighborhood police substation in Japan, staffed by officers who handle patrols, directions/lost-and-found, minor incidents, and taking reports.) Why had I come to a…

Chapter 11 - The Elemental That Misfired and Torched a Nasty Land Shark’s Crotch “Alright, I’ll call it a day here…” Somehow, I felt exhausted. Even a beginner-tier dungeon became grueling when I explored a forest alone. My knees were wobbling from all the squatting I did to stash drop items into my Item Storage. In hindsight, I should have waited until the one-hour Fever Time ended before collecting drops. DW really did become reality. For a former accounting clerk and gamer who…
