Greatest Alchemist? Idle Talk 3

Idle Talk: The Heroes’ Training

In an wide indoor training area, dull training swords shrilled.

The heroes summoned by the Divine Empire of Sydnia, Akira and Yamato, were training with a holy knight as an opponent.

Akira, wielding a sword and shield, fights tempestuously and Yamato, equipped with knuckles / knuckle duster, fights employing martial arts in mock battle.

「Is that all you’ve got?! Akira-dono!」
「Kuh! I’m not done yet!」

「Yamato! You’re neglecting your footwork!」
「Guwaaa!」

It’s been three months since the summoning, they train daily and level up by fighting monsters such as goblins.

Akane has a magic type job, so she’s on a different training menu and is currently in the library studying spell books.

「(A long time ago, the Goddess Anat created Humans in her likeness. Thereafter, she created the Beastkin, humans with limbs from beasts, and the Dwarves and Elves, created from fairies, for the Humans to govern.)」

Akane is reading the origin of this world that the Light God Faith preaches.

「(What is this? The Light God Faith is more dangerous than I thought.)」

Akane knows that there are two major religions in this continent. However, information regarding the Genesis Faith, whose chief deity is the Goddess Norn, is exceedingly hard to come by in this country. Once in a while, Akane acquires some from listening to stories from traveling merchants in lands near the castle.
Discussions from those times seem to advocate that “The Genesis Faith says that all races are equally the Goddess Norn’s children.”. For that reason, they say that the countries in this continent, with the exception of Triaria Kingdom and the Divine Empire of Sydnia, have Genesis Faith as their state religion or conform to a similar belief.
And it was known fact that these two countries, Triaria and Sydnia, believe in Human Supremacy.

「We have to escape to Lomaria Kingdom or Valkyra Kingdom somehow. I’ve had it with both this smelly town and castle.」

Akane declares so because large towns in Valkyra Kingdom and Lomaria Kingdom have magic devices that purify their sewer system, and the interior of their towns are very clean. She heard from merchants that recently that it has begun spreading to the royal capital of Samandour Kingdom and other countries.
With exception to Triaria Kingdom and the Divine Empire of Sydnia, there has been a rapid improvement in sanitary circumstances in recent years, with infant and elderly mortality declining and outbreaks of epidemics becoming less likely. This matter is of no surprise to Akane.

「(Still, I don’t get it. A priest stupidly said “Light magic is magic granted to the Light God Church, therefore it is outrageous to use it on filth.” , but I wonder if he was half asleep.)」

Akane’s indignation is because she knew that the 『Toilet with Purifier DM』 is spreading to the general households in Valkyra Kingdom and Lomaria Kingdom. Of course, the Divine Empire of Sydnia does not import it. Akane, who is accustomed to the electronic bidet in Japan, wants to break away from this empire as soon as possible, even if only for the squat toilet situation.

「Seriously, I’m so glad I have an aptitude for Light attribute magic.」

「So how are the heroes?」
「Ha. Akira, with the sword, and Yamato, with martial arts, have potential.」

The Holy Knight Leader Packard answered the question asked by Pope Wyvaal.

「How about the woman?」
「She has the aptitude for magic jobs, not to mention her potential with Light attribute magic. For that reason, the acquisition of knowledge takes precedence.」

The Head Magician Homer spoke of Akane’s present condition.
For a magic user, the accumulation of knowledge is helpful in using various magic.

「It may soon be time to incorporate training in ruins and monster nests.」
「That’s right, we must get the heroes to play an active role in the war with Valkyra Kingdom and Lomaria Kingdom after all.」
「Elizabeth, how is Akira?」
「Fufu, Father, a man of that degree is easy for me to handle.」

Imperial princess Elizabeth sneered icily.

Footnotes:

  1. Wyvaal / Warvaal – Pope’s name. It was previously written as Warvaal but was changed to Wyvaal in this chapter. Unsure if it’s a typo or not. I’ll change it when author decides to stick to one spelling.
  2. In all other statuses, cooking is placed in the active skills section so I’ll add it there for consistency.

Thanks for the chapter

CesarAKG

Thanks for the chapter…

I did some Google search (“pope site:www.euricette.com”) and the pope’s name appears as Warvaal in Idle Talk 2.

Philip

Oh, them idle talks, I have to remember they are about the future. I wonder how much will change before the heroes are actually summoned. A bit weird how only Akane seems to want to run away, those other two should also prefer better toilets, lol.
Thanks for the awesome translation! God bless you!

sabruness

One’s a self-righteous, naive and narcissistic “only my justice is justice” wanker who’s easily led around by his dick and his lackey is a brainless meathead. They’re always stupid and take the stupidest choice.
Just look at Kouki from Arifureta.

zero-san

I’m whole heartedly agreed

Kuro Alicia

You just had to say “Kouki” and we all know what his character lol
That brandead still got his ass handle even after the main story end, and the “after story” continue

Akirei

Indeed, Akira is following “Kouki’s main story route”. However, this hero kid can’t compare with Kouki. Kouki was and idealistic idiot to the point where one could think “Such a guy can really exist?”, and Akira doesn’t give me that vibe. Moreover, Kouki wasn’t an idiot who thinks with his crotch. Kouki was seduced, but that was using brainwashing magic.  In another note, the hero job might be just a peculiar job. After all, the world is not chaotic, and the demon race is just another race. Maybe it does have a special power, but I doubt Akira could use… Read more »

Cannot remember a thing about previous idle talks. My guess the guys are idiots and will listen to that shady country. The girl will almost certainly join the harem of mc though.

KarmaTy

Thanks for the new chapter~

sjmcc13

So comparing the stats between this and the last idle talk with them at level 1 and that growth for several months…

@trnrlogan : If I recall, the “hero” basically got lost in the title instantly, and the warrior is basically little more a thug who wants to rampage around. But ya they will likely be mislead for too long as they do not appear to asking questions about what is going on.

Kuro Alicia

Hero stat+2 every 1 Lv up LMAOOO!!!
And his skill just Lv2 compare to the other two lol!
Maybe “Hero” job is just like Title, no use if you don’t have Hero Correction status like MC

But if you compare MC status with Sophie, there’s no different idk why…

sfcipher

The Head Magician Homer, by any chance, is his last name Simpson?

Thanks for the treat.

kariageweb

Thanks for the chapter! 🙂

Dovakiin

Thanks for the chapter!!
Btw this chapters not on the table of content
Also I was wondering if there’s an upload schedule for this book or not??

Blythe

It was supposed to be every 3 days for this novel but I’ve recently been preoccupied so i haven’t been able to uphold the schedule. Sorry about that >< i do try when i have time though

gumtreeblossom

The “Next” link goes to Chapter 16 instead of Chapter 71.

caudyr

As gumtreeblossom said, the “Next” link still takes you to chapter 16 instead of chapter 71. ^^

Beastation

I consider it a nerf that Akane’s cooking is an active skill XD

V4NQU1SH

fumungus

Coolman
