Changing X butcherer title -> X slaughterer title
====================================
When I brought the carcass of the hercules ant to the fort, I was surrounded by Knights of the Isaac.
“What on earth is...that?”
“It's a hercules ant, a sort of king of the ants. I brought the carcass back because I'm going to present it to my father later. I remembered that this antler was on display in the main house of the Fresvald family.”
When Karen replied to the knight's words, the knights looked at hercules ant with interest.
I wanted to put off reporting to Margrave Isaac to tell him that we had destroyed the den and to offer him the magic stone, but if I didn't report it here and now, the Knights of Isaac would go back to their camp. After taking a bath, I went alone to report to the margrave of Isaac.
Margrave Isaac was not inside the fort but rather outside of the eastern fort, leading the fight against the ants.
“Margrave Isaac. I have returned. I have destroyed the ants' nest in the west and recovered the magic stones. I have already entrusted the magic stones to a member of the Knights. I also killed a higher species hercules ant, and I would like to dedicate it to Duke Fresvald but may I request for you to take it back when you return to the camp?"
Then Isaac replied.
“My God! A hercules ant! I've been defeating Ant's for decades and I've never seen one before. ...Of course, bring it back! Lord Fresvald will be delighted! But still, to think you defeated a hercules ant..."
Good. Now I don't have to carry it as part of my luggage.
“How is the situation with Minerva?"
I asked and Margrave Isaac pointed towards the ants.
“She's fighting the killer ants over there. Don't worry, she’s fighting with the escorting knights. I would never let a girl of that age get hurt.”
So that's why Margrave Isaac went out of his way to come here...
“Thank you very much. Please tell Minerva to return to this side of the fort when the Knights of Isaac return. We are very exhausted so I think we should rest a little. I seek your understanding."
I bowed and left Isaac. On my way back, I saw the appearance of Minerva fighting hard with her chains. Isn't she a good girl…? Who said she was just an SM character...
Back at the fort, everyone was already asleep.
Outside our fort was the carcass of a hercules ant, and the Knights were looking at it curiously.
After giving only a side look at the knights, I went inside the extended fort, checked everyone's stats, and decided to go to bed.

My level has caught up with everyone else, probably because I've been defeating a lot of high-level magic beasts. While I'm here, I'll aim to reach 100 magic stats.
To get same title of Ant Slaughterer that Margrave Isaac had would probably still a long way off. He has been hunting Ant for decades so there is no way I can catch up in a month or so.

Her versatility has been refined and her status has all exceeded 50. She is perfectly capable as a sub-leader. Recently, she also began to attack with Water magic and her level of Water magic has also increased.
And her beauty had been further refined. If I look at her sleeping face any longer, I'll have to be under the care of Wand of Sage (Fake) again so let's stop here.
Name: Ellie Leo
Title: -

Ellie could have been stronger than Clarice if it’s just short-decisive battle. In practice, however, she can't do anything in front of the chantless Barrier magic but she has grown tremendously that she gives others the impression of her as another sub-ace in the party.
In contrast, her physical growth seems to have almost stopped. Thank goodness...I would have been unable to hold it if she had grown any further.

Her level of whip technique had steadily increased and the level of Fire magic had also risen to 8 during this time’s massacre. Her strength and agility values have also improved and I am looking forward to her future growth.
Name: Misha Febrandt
Title: -
Status: Fairy race (Elf race), eldest daughter of Baroness Febrandt
Condition: Good
Age: 10 years old
Level: 30
HP: 51/51
MP: 0/170
Strength: 43
Agility: 53
Magic: 42
Dexterity: 45

Special Ability: Spearmanship (Lv7/B)
Special Ability: Water Magic (Lv3/C)
Special Ability: Wind Magic (Lv5/D)
Equipment: Sylph Lance
Equipment: Robe of Illusion
Equipment: Small Shield of Illusion
Misha has also reached level 30 and her strength is probably at the level of upper C-rank adventurer. She might even possibly enter the ranks of B-rank adventurer but I'm not going to spoil it for her because she’s likely to get ahead of herself and go berserk on her own if she knows.
Name: Baron Reinhardt

Status: Human race, heir to Count Reinhardt.
Condition: Good
Age: 10 years old
Level: 26
HP: 56/56

Agility: 33
Magic: 35
Dexterity: 36
Durability: 30
Luck: 1
Special Ability: Swordsmanship(Lv6/B)
Special Ability: Fire Magic (Lv3/D)
Special Ability: Water Magic (Lv2/D)
Special Ability: Earth Magic(Lv6/C)
Special Ability: Wind magic (Lv3/D)
Equipment: Gnome Sword
Equipment: Gnome Shield
Equipment: Gnome Armor
Baron is a balanced type but his equipment is a full set of earth spirit equipment so I think he wants to specialize in Earth magic somehow. I have a feeling that he’s going to lack decisive power as I did in the past. I want to let him know while it’s still early.
Name: Dominic August
Title: -
Status: Human race, head of the Augustus baronet family
Condition: Good
Age: 10 years old
Level: 25
HP: 58/58
MP: 0/45
Strength: 36
Agility: 36
Magic: 18
Dexterity: 22
Durability: 32
Luck: 5
Special Ability: Swordsmanship(Lv7/C)
Special Ability: Wind Magic (Lv3/E)
Equipment: Sword of the Gale
Equipment: Mantle of Evasion
His HP and durability have increased considerably, probably due to the spartan training. I hope he will grow as a tank. First of all, I have to do something about his equipment though...
Name: Ryner Orgo
Title: Sword King
Status: Human, commoner
Condition: Good
Age: 33
Level: 30
HP: 71/71
MP: 73/73
Strength: 35
Agility: 42
Magic: 20
Dexterity: 54
Durability: 21
Luck: 0
Special Ability: Spearmanship (Lv7/B)
Special Ability: Swordsmanship (Lv10/A)
Special Ability: Water Magic (Lv2/E)
Equipment: Blade of Ice
Finally, there's Ryner. Bram's level has not changed so I omitted him. His stats are still low but his level 10 swordsmanship and his title Sword King give him outstanding stability. There are probably not many people who can break his defense Ryner when he is on the receiving end.
September 16, 2030, 1:00 a.m.
I woke up to find Misha on my right and Ellie on my left. Huh? These two should be sleeping with MP depleted, right? How could they be next to me?
I took my snack and quickly walked out with my doubts. As usual, the security at the fort on the side of the extension is tight. And the number of killer ants attacking us has obviously decreased. They might have been reduced to about half.
I headed for the Forest of Death alone where the Knights are fighting the killer ants. I wanted to know in advance how dangerous it would be. It is a gentleman's manners to know in advance the course of a date with beautiful women, isn't it?
It was midnight and quite cold. And as I was walking along while being very wary of my footing... I saw a group of about 10 killer ants heading toward the forest. I followed the herd of 10 or so killer ants toward the forest, trying not to be noticed.
I wondered how far I had walked... as the fog gradually thickened and visibility became worse. Thanks to Sky Eyes I have night vision but I can't see very far ahead. If I come here at night with beautiful girls, I will surely be misunderstood... I will definitely only come here between morning to noon.
The killer ants are going on and on without flinching at all in this thick fog. What a reliable bunch…should I tame a few of them as scouts? I followed them and finally, I could see an outline of a tree.
In that very next moment, the killer ants got crushed by the tree.
====================================
Author’s note:
The more the number of clan members, the more times we review their stats...
TL: Glad you know, I even have to start writing a note for the latest characters’ stats/equipment now so the tl doesn’t get too random like ice blade in chapter 1 and blade of ice in chapter 6 even tho they r the same thing…
