I, Who Was Criticized as the World's Weakest S-Rank Explorer, Am Actually the World's Strongest Explorer - Episode 43

Episode 43  

<Six magic stones!?>  

<Six!? Are you serious!?>  

<Even for Kiryu-san, this is bad news, right?>  

<This has to be the strongest monster ever!>  

<What in the world is going on!?>  

<Wait, I just looked it up—there’s an old article where Amakusa mentioned a 101st floor. The Association completely denied it though…>  

<What!? What’s that supposed to mean!? What’s actually happening!?>  

<Didn’t the Association say it was fake?>  

<But if this is real, does that mean Amakusa was right?>  

<No way, it’s Amakusa we’re talking about. He couldn’t have been right!>  

“RAAAAARGH!“

The Demon Ogre let out a deafening roar. Its magic-laden cry made Kiryu’s whole body tremble.  

“A… ahh… AAAHHHH…!?”  

<Kiryu-san!?>  

This… this is impossible…! I’m going to die…! I can’t…! I can’t do this!  

Kiryu instantly grasped the sheer gap in power between him and the enemy.  

He tried to flee, but the Demon Ogre leaped forward. It swung its massive axe down at him.  

Reflexively, Kiryu unleashed a bolt of lightning. But it didn’t even faze the monster.  

The axe came crashing down.  

“AGH!?”  

Though Kiryu managed to raise a magical barrier in time, the force of the blow sent him flying.  

<Kiryu-sama!?>  

<Hey! What’s he gonna do!?> 

<This is being broadcast nationwide! This is so bad!>  

<This is insane!>  

Kiryu struggled to his feet, his legs shaking. But as he looked ahead, his face turned pale.  

“…A… ahhh… ahhhHHH… “ 

In front of him, more monsters began to appear—six Demon-class creatures in total.  

(Note: From now on, I’m gonna use “Demon-class” instead of “Demon-type”)

<Somebody save Kiryu-sama!> 

<I don’t want to see him die…>  

<Why did the Explorer Association ignore Amakusa’s report!? This doesn’t make any sense!>  

<The Association is the worst!>  

<Amakusa should’ve pushed harder! This is all on him and the Association!>  

<Why does someone like Kiryu-sama have to go through this!? Amakusa should’ve been the one to die instead!>  

Trapped, Kiryu realized there was no way out.  

Behind him loomed the Demon Ogre, cutting off any chance of escape.  

In overwhelming fear, Kiryu felt himself lose control—and wet himself.

Kiryu-sama, as calm as ever, lol. Truly Japan’s strongest!

Man, Amakusa really was weak, huh?  

70. 70. Anonymous Explorer  

Kiryu-sama’s mowing down enemies like it’s nothing, lol. This is what an S-rank looks like—totally different from Amakusa.  

71. 71. Anonymous Explorer  

Seriously, what was Amakusa even doing all this time?  

72. 72. Anonymous Explorer  

Hopefully, the people of Kamino Town will finally wake up to the truth…  

73. 73. Anonymous Explorer  

Watching him take down monsters one after another is so satisfying! This is what a true S-rank is.  

74. 74. Anonymous Explorer  

Amakusa must’ve been slacking off big time.  

75. 75. Anonymous Explorer  

Kiryu-sama’s making so much progress today.  

76. 76. Anonymous Explorer  

Already on the 90th floor… His pace is insane.  

77. 77. Anonymous Explorer  

Isn’t this dungeon way too easy?  

78. 78. Anonymous Explorer  

No, something’s off. Kiryu isn’t keeping up with the dungeon’s pace—it’s too much even for him.  

79. 79. Anonymous Explorer  

Kiryu-sama looks fine, though. He’s wiping out monsters left and right—stop with the nonsense, lol.  

80. 80. Anonymous Explorer  

Oh? A Kiryu hater? Probably an Amakusa fanboy, lol.  

81. 81. Anonymous Explorer  

>80 Rare sight, lol. Kiryu-sama’s just clearing this dungeon to expose Amakusa’s incompetence.  

82. 82. Anonymous Explorer  

Now this is what an S-Rank Explorer looks like. Amakusa is completely unnecessary.  

83. 83. Anonymous Explorer  

Amakusa’s lack of effort has been exposed, lol.  

84. 84. Anonymous Explorer  

Closing in on the 100th floor! Kiryu-sama’s unstoppable!

101. 101. Anonymous Explorer  

101st floor!? Are you kidding me? I’ve never heard of that before!  

102. 102. Anonymous Explorer  

What’s happening? Isn’t the 100th floor supposed to be the last one?  

103. 103. Anonymous Explorer  

I think I read something about the 101st floor in an old article.  

104. 104. Anonymous Explorer  

Wait, I just found an old piece online—it looks like Amakusa might’ve reached the 101st floor before…….. Could this be real?  

105. 105. Anonymous Explorer  

Isn’t that the one the Association debunked as fake? Amakusa was just making stuff up, lol.  

106. 106. Anonymous Explorer  

But Kiryu-san is literally on the 101st floor right now. Does this mean Amakusa was actually right?  

107. 107. Anonymous Explorer  

The Association is screwed. They completely dismissed Amakusa’s report—this is blatant negligence!  

108. 108. Anonymous Explorer  

No way. Who would trust Amakusa? But if the 101st floor is real…  

109. 109. Anonymous Explorer  

This is bad! Monsters with six magic stones just appeared where Kiryu-sama is! Multiple of them! That’s impossible!  

110. 110. Anonymous Explorer  

Kiryu-sama is in trouble!  

Someone has to go help him, or this is seriously bad!  

How did it even come to this!?  

111. 111. Anonymous Explorer  

So the stuff Amakusa said back then was true!?  

This is all the Association’s fault!  

112. 112. Anonymous Explorer  

Amakusa… actually made it to the 101st floor!?  

113. 113. Anonymous Explorer  

Association, do your job!  

This happened because you ignored Amakusa’s report!  

114. 114. Anonymous Explorer  

Forget everything else—just save Kiryu-sama!  

He’s going to die at this rate!
