After moving into the new home and getting the unpacking and new furniture installation mostly settled, I lay on my bed and opened my status window.

The first thing worth noting is the massive increase in my stats.

By killing「Demon-fist Raider」’s S-rank Hunter-cum-Clanmaster along with roughly a hundred clan members, each stat rose by an average of around 1,400.

It wasn’t surprising.

The last time I fought such a large number at once was the Troll Stampede, and among this clan’s members were dozens who were stronger than trolls.

Next were the skills. My existing skills leveled smoothly, and I acquired many new ones.

Since many of them possessed similar skills, the new ones ended up being high-level from the start.

Most skills strengthen in stages as they level, so obtaining them at higher levels is incredibly valuable.

And this incident made something painfully clear again.

Killing Hunters increases my power far more efficiently than defeating monsters.

Of course, if I slaughter monsters in huge quantities, my stats will rise.

But because of supply-and-demand issues, I can’t just sell materials freely, and more importantly, all the monsters share nearly identical skill sets, so my skills don’t grow the same way.

Hunters, on the other hand — although this situation was an extreme outlier — have different skill sets depending on their jobs, so my skill growth accelerates massively.

There will come a point where I hit a ceiling, sure… but imagining how strong I’ll be by then is scary.


“Why was I even given a unique skill that lets me use Hunters as nourishment?”


The thought surfaced for a moment, but I had no answer. Maybe there are scholars or institutions that study unique skills; they can figure that out.

Finally, I checked the surplus experience for【Conversion】.

The duplicate acquisition of【Subterfuge】was converted into experience, and 2% of that became roughly 2.2 million.

I considered increasing the level of【Conversion】to raise the surplus accumulation rate, but… only Hunters have【Subterfuge】.

And events like this one are outliers. Surplus experience won’t accumulate easily.

Still, I wanted to test the cost and progression curve, so I tried leveling【Conversion】.

Here’s how much experience it required:

・【Conversion】Lv.2 → Lv.3　[600]
・【Conversion】Lv.3 → Lv.4　[2,400]
・【Conversion】Lv.4 → Lv.5　[12,000]
・【Conversion】Lv.5 → Lv.6　[72,000]
・【Conversion】Lv.6 → Lv.7　[504,000]

From level 2 to level 7, it cost total [591,000] experience points.

And judging by the progression, raising it from level 7 to level 8 would require [4,032,000] points.

Which means I can’t raise【Conversion】any further for now. Since I still had surplus experience left, I raised【Discernment】to level 7.

Leaving about 1.07 million surplus experience points remaining, I finished reviewing my status.

E/N:

Amazing, all stats above 6k, new skills and the OP Experience Points generator!

Also, please note that in the end of this chapter;
【Discernment】Lv.6 →【Discernment】Lv.7
【Conversion】Lv.2 →【Conversion】Lv.7

If you're confused or didn't understand the update in status, just in case.

Stay tuned!

It Seems the Convenience Store Clerk Ossan That Got Dragged Into the Teleportation of an Entire Class Will Make Use of the Leftover Skills the Heroes Didn’t Want and Become the Strongest

Editor:
Image
                   Author: Ayase Hiura A middle-aged convenience store clerk gets caught up in a hero summoning and is transported to another world! Yuichi Otogi, a dull 35-year-old single man, gets dragged into what's known as a "class transfer" to another world. While the summoned heroes each receive a cheat skill from the goddess and are reincarnated, Otogi was only caught up in the summoning by accident—so all the cheats were already taken, and he didn’t get one. As a consolation, the goddess forcibly dumps into him a bunch of leftover, discarded skills she had gathered for cheat-skill reference and sends him off to the other world. His stats are low, and his skills seem useless. But the old guy doesn’t give up. Before he knows it, he finds himself surrounded by girls—and even some pretty boys—who, for some reason, are all fond of him. And he doesn’t entirely dislike the attention, either. When he makes full use of those...

Konbini Ossan Volume 1 Chapter 25 – Herb Gathering and Skill Imbuing

Editor:
After dealing with the man, I checked the requests posted at the guild. Requests are broadly divided into two types:   - One is the standard request — These are the ones taken on by a single adventurer or a party, and the job ends once the request is fulfilled.   - The other is called a permanent request — For example, exterminating wolves or gathering medicinal herbs – jobs that are always available and have no limit. These do not require prior acceptance at the counter; simply bringing proof of the monster hunt or collected materials will be enough to process the request as completed. No matter how many times these are fulfilled, permanent requests are never withdrawn. By the time I checked the requests, it was already early afternoon, so the easy jobs had all been taken. Therefore, I didn’t formally accept any request and decided to fulfill a permanent one instead. Among them, the one I aimed for was herb gathering . There were several reasons, but the main one was simple —...

Konbini Ossan Volume 2 Chapter 26 — A Man Named Yuichi Otsugi

Editor:
After Shuri-kun deliciously took my virginity, the two of us returned to the shop and completed various contracts in writing. Arisa looked curiously at Shuri-kun, who seemed a bit worn out. But she likely didn’t suspect that Shuri-kun and I had done the deed. Surely, we hadn’t been found out. Or rather, we must not be found out. If Arisa knew, she might genuinely start to hate me. Living together while being looked at like filth by my own niece… That kind of hell is unbearable even to imagine. And yet— Thinking about it more, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad in the short term? (E/N: You masochist freak Unc! 🤣) Well, let's set irrelevant thoughts aside for now. After signing the contracts with me and promising to formalize them later with official documents from the royal palace, Shuri-kun and Marceline went home. Then the peak business hours came, which Arisa and I handled together, and night eventually fell. There was no one left in the shop. At this time, we rarely get customers. Occ...
