To Another World... with Land Mines!

“Hey! I’m an evil god, but I’m not actually evil!” Those were the first words I heard in the afterlife. My name’s Naofumi Kamiya, and my entire class died in a tragic bus accident. The god told my classmates that he would transport all of us to a dangerous new world, but he created skills for us on request, so maybe he was actually a good god? That’s what I thought at first, anyway. But when it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! I feel bad for my classmates who thought that gimmicky skills would make them invincible. I mean, the god did warn them that there were no cheat skills! Oh well. As for myself, I’m enjoying my life with my childhood friends, putting safety first and staying out of trouble. After all, this world might seem like a game, but it’s not. It’s reality.

Nao, Touya, and Haruka finally have the money to leave town and search for their two other friends, Natsuki and Yuki, whom they haven’t seen since they arrived in this new world. A touching reunion takes place, but the joy of seeing each other again does not last long. They have a lot of problems ahead of them to solve, such as searching for a grimoire, purchasing new weapons, hunting boars, and viewing new places to live. On top of all that, they have to help out a beautiful elf whose cafe is suffering from financial difficulties! Their slice of life adventures exploring a different world continues in this long-awaited second volume!

Nao's party has agreed to temporarily settle down in Laffan, but that means they have to begin saving up money again in order to purchase a plot of land and pay for the construction of a house. In order to earn money, they start with the basics and take on some well-paying gathering quests for herbs, while also aiming for other options that would rake in a lot of money, like harvesting magical mushrooms and capturing giant salamanders. However, there’s no such thing as easy money, so their goal of achieving a relaxing and peaceful life in this different world is still a distant dream. Money comes and goes; that’s the harsh reality that Nao’s party has to face.

After a skirmish with a powerful band of orcs, Nao’s party realizes that they have to get stronger. so the first thing they do with the loot they bagged? Why, they pay a visit to their classmate, Tomi, who has become an apprentice at the local weapon store. They then start to focus on training and manage to learn new skills—but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The group departs on a hunting trip for giant salamanders (partially as an excuse to relax) only to find giant mushrooms have appeared all over town upon their return! Nao’s party and their adventures in this world are about to hit a strange turning point as their house nears completion.
