“Brother! You came back without dying! I believed it!”

When Leos entered the cave, Bendict greeted him with a fuss. Hericia also got up from her seat and walked towards the man and spoke.

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

“No problem.”

As Leos went to the corner of the cave and sat down, Bendict was walking around and talking loudly.

“Brother, it is difficult for me to catch even a single monster that comes out of the Red Gate, let alone the Red Gate. How can you go around sealing the gate itself like that? Can I do it if I learn from you? yes? older brother! Can’t you hear me?”

Bendict ended up getting hit by a honey chestnut and fell to the ground, screaming.

“I’m going crazy so shut your mouth.”

Bendict spoke as if it were unfair.

“That Bendict. How can you not know that I want to help my brother! We can’t just receive help from within like this forever. I also want to fight next to you!”

“Do you have a good memory?”

“No, I don’t even remember what I ate yesterday.”

“Then even if I tell you, I’ll forget everything. It is important to remember the characteristics of monsters that appear in Red Gate, especially mutants. Even if their combat sense is a little lacking, if you are aware of what abilities they use and what vulnerabilities they have, they are something you can compare to.”

“A No matter how hard I try, I can memorize it well. How much do I have to memorize? How many types of monsters appear in Red Gate?”

“At least thousands of species. But since you’ve never seen them in person, you’ll have to memorize their appearance as well. If you write it down on paper, you will have to memorize at least hundreds of thousands of characters.”

“…”

Bendict immediately held his head and spoke.

“I, Bendict…I would do anything for you, but I have never memorized so much information in my life…”

“Just keep your mouth shut.”

“Yes!”

The man went to a corner and chewed some beef jerky. And soon after, he pointed to Hericia and spoke.

“Brother, isn’t that girl good at handling artifacts? If I modify the artifact and create something like a notepad, wouldn’t I be able to see it and respond?”

“…?”

As Leos walked towards Bendict, Bendict covered his head and cowered, probably because he thought he was going to get hit again. But contrary to his expectations, Leos nodded in surprise.

“That sounds plausible? Why didn’t I think of that? No, how did you think that?”

“Haha! older brother! Even a broken clock is right once, right? I’m glad I helped!”

Leos thought.

‘Okay, this isn’t an exam room or anything.’

The company believed that other people could fully apply and utilize the knowledge they had as long as they classified it perfectly and modified the artifacts so that they could quickly check the information. There is no need to memorize it unconditionally. This means that it doesn’t matter if you use a cheat sheet.

‘Of course, this is not a method that just anyone can use.’

A person like Leos who perfectly knows the characteristics and weaknesses of monsters may not know, but if it is vague and a note from someone who knows, it is as good as nothing. There were even cases where the monsters were completely different species with very slight differences in appearance, so Leos himself had to tell them what kind of monster they were. Nevertheless, the cheat sheet strategy was quite useful.

“Hericia. Can you make it?”

“How do you want it made?”

I want to create an entry in “Distance like an encyclopedia. When you speak a specific word with your voice, the corresponding information appears immediately on the remote screen.”

“Hmm… that much is possible. By combining virtual augmentation artifacts, information can be displayed on the equipped goggles.”

“You’re talking about a method like AR.”

“What is A…R?”

“No. Please do me a favor first.”

“Yes! Please wait a moment!”

Hericia took out various items from her bag and then even took out her inventory.

“Was there an inventory? Why are you carrying a bag?”

“…Yes! There is an inventory, but it is full of artifacts.”

True to her claim that she was an artifact fanatic, the artifacts she took out one by one from her inventory were truly surprising. There were many different types, but there were also items of high rarity lined up.

“Where did you get all this? That’s amazing.”

“Hehe I just collected them one by one and it ended up like this. There weren’t many at first…I told you! That artifact fanatic.”

Hericia flinched as if she was in a good mood at Leos’ surprising reaction. Since the man rarely praised or commented on other people’s admiration, Hericia became even more passionate because it felt like he was speaking from the heart and not empty words.

After about an hour passed, Hericia spoke while sweating profusely.

“It’s done! Would you like to try this?”

Hericia handed out transparent goggles, and Leos took them and put them on his face.

“It’s simple to use. All you have to do is put on your glasses and say search, and then say the name of the document you want to find inside the database. There is still only one registered in the database, so say Hericia.”

“Search, Hericia.”

Then, three-dimensional letters began to appear beyond Leos’ goggles.

[Document: Hericia]

[Text: Artifact enthusiast who has been steadily collecting artifacts since the Gate incident broke out. It is said that there are over 500 types of artifacts she has collected. Characteristic: Artifact craftsman recognized by Leos]

Heresy is a form in which the document part and main text of a document are printed as is. Leos said with admiration.

“That’s really amazing. I can’t believe you made this so quickly. When I worked at the Gatekeeper management center, I never even thought about using an artifact like this.”

“Hmm…it’s not something everyone can do easily. These artifacts are so sensitive that even the slightest touch can cause them to break quickly. Even though Leos seems to be able to clear out the Red Gate easily, just as not everyone can do it, I guess that’s what I do as well.”

“Excellent.”

“Hehe, nothing to say!”

“But, how do I add this?”

“There is an app I added to Distance. Just click on it and write. Can you see the document part and the body part? When you’re done, click Add, and if you want to delete it, just delete the item. For reference, you can also write using voice recognition, and the encyclopedia written by Leos is automatically linked to the goggles I created. First of all, I made 3 goggles, but you can add more, so please let me know if you need extra.”

“Okay, let me know if you need more later.”

Leos looked at Distance and used the voice recognition function to register the names and characteristics of several monsters in the encyclopedia.

[Document:Debringer]

[Text: A monster with the ability to detect humans. Its external characteristic is that it has two antennae on its forehead. It uses its antennae to detect humans within a range of approximately 500m to as much as 1km. Because it detects human energy, it is possible to be detected even if it is concealed by a geographical feature. It even releases pheromones that attract monsters around it as time passes. If you encounter a Debringer, your chances of survival are higher if you kill it immediately rather than running away. Since the object itself is not strong, there is no problem in hunting as long as you can approach it.]

[Document: Liard]

[Text: Mantis-type mutant monster. The main characteristic is that the entire body is made of strength higher than steel…]

The man wrote information in the encyclopedia app for a while and talked to Heresia.

“It’s very easy to use. thanks. This will help us tremendously in the future.”

Hericia nodded her head proudly in response to Leos’ praise, and Bendict looked slightly discouraged, then cut down a tree on the ground with a knife and spoke.

“Brother! I’m good at putting in effort! If there is anything you need strength for, please let me know anytime!”

“Don’t swing the knife for no reason, just stay still.”

“Yep!”

Bendict went straight to the corner and crouched down. When Leos puts the goggles on Bendict’s face, writing appears in front of the man.

“Oooooh! The text comes alive!”

“Do you know how to read?”

“No bro…what do you think of me…”

As Bendict looked at him with tears in his eyes, Leos responded expressionlessly.

“It’s a joke.”

With a tearful expression on his face, Bendict checked the items in the encyclopedia app one by one.

“Wow…no bro, do monsters have this many characteristics? How do you memorize all this?”

“The strong memory of almost dying does not disappear no matter how much time passes. From the lowest level to the highest level, it seems like hunting is nothing special now, but in the past, they hunted in stages and almost died every time. Even if you don’t want to think about it, it stays in your mind.”

“That’s right…you had a weak time with your brother…if you had met me at that time, I could have guided you down the right path so that your personality wouldn’t go awry…aaah! older brother! It’s a joke! My ears! ear! It’s torn, bro!”

Leaving Bendict rolling around on the floor, Leos opened Distance.

[Welcome to Leos Gallery.]

Manager of Leos Gallery. When I thought about it, he said he might die soon because he had no food.

‘Even when everyone in the world turned their backs on me, he still believed in me.’

Hericia was also from the gallery, and the manager is also from the gallery, although I don’t know who she is.

‘Since I created the encyclopedia anyway, I’d like to help out a little.’

Leos Gallery is a minor gallery operated on a small scale. Therefore, Leos wrote without any pressure.

[Nickname: LEO]

[Title: Appearance and characteristics of each object of 50 types of monsters, simple countermeasures.

[Text: 1. Debringer: The ability to detect humans… 2. Liard: A mantis-like mutation…]

Information on monsters that would be dangerous for an outsider to encounter was copied from the encyclopedia and posted to the gallery. In particular, Debringer is highlighted in red. This was because if a human who did not know its characteristics encountered it, it could hide and be detected and die. Leos hoped that since there were people here who believed in him, at least one less person would die. Even when everyone was pointing fingers at them for being criminals, they believed in them.

After posting the message, Leos turned off his mind. Anyway, even though there are 50 types of monsters, the information is only about three feet of blood compared to the total number of monsters. There were no photos of each monster, so in a way, this was just hypocrisy to relieve Leos’s own discomfort.

However, even that small piece of information began to have a huge impact throughout the empire.
