Re:Monster - Volume 8 - Chapter 42

Day 334

At breakfast, I was able to finish eating [Mason Tool of Stone Statue God] without any  problems. 

 [Learning completion of [Mason Tool of Stone Statue God] ability]  
 [Learning completion of [Space Sculptor] ability]  
 [Learning completion of [Cut Technique of the Odd Ten Thousand] ability]  
 [Learning completion of [Sensitivity of Art] ability]  
 [Learning completion of [Rock Appraisal] ability]  

Though I made everything as my blood and flesh this time, unfortunately the numbers  possible to be learned has decreased. 

It is the only thing which I cannot expect to rely so much on the battle side of it. 

But other than that, it was the ability's seemed to be fairly usable. 

As for [Space Sculptor]  and  [Cut Technique of the Odd Ten Thousand]  have resulted  to substantial correction when I produce something, as for  [Sensitivity of Art]   seemed to make it easier for me to know the quality of things. 

When I draw  [Sacred Fire Mountain of Oni's Howl]  on the canvas which let me  attempt to repeat the act with a painting brush, a masterpiece which a famous artist  drew was completed. 

Ferocious yet sublime, and the reputation is excellent if I show everybody the picture  which got more viewed as a representation of Hell that will get more life like from  now on. 

If there was a person who was entranced by it, then the person had a sense of fear too.

Because I thought that the art is a thing which for some reason works on the person  who considered it to be an art, in spite of being an amateur, it is a quite work of art  the creator has confidence in. 

Though I can use only this for a hobby, it is not only an art aspect apparently, when I  make various goods, I seem able to apply it to ――e.g.―― something like a magic  potion for instance. 

The stuff which was manufactured by a prominent technique, couldn't in as sense it  called a [Work of Art]. 

Well, lets put that one set aside. 

I pick up the rock in the handy place and cut it with a finger. 

 [Rock appraisal] is limited to rock only and the use is extremely narrow but there is  lot of information by just that much. 

Since something like the fragile part are displayed in view, it is possible to cut down  only to aim at part where to be interesting. 

Due to playing around I got absorbed from since when I started in the morning, it's  already night time before I notice it. 

I thought whether it was slightly a waste, but I will assume it is good because I was  unexpectedly able to relax. 

By the way, with my abilities I used all day long today I made dozens of stone statues. 

The statues consist of principal members such as Me and Kanami-chan including 
Redhead, Minokichi-kun, Asue-chan, Burasato-san, Supesei-san, Seiji-kun, Aifu-chan  and Kugime-chan. Our statues are overflowing with a throbbing feeling and vitality as  if we'd been done in by [Petrifaction].

Although it is not too well done, I did only make them for the first time? So I only to  think of it to be perfection, everybody was pleased when I showed the statue which 
Kanami-chan became a model . 

As for occasionally doing different things in this way for sometimes, seems not bad I  guess. 

TL note: 

• It seems Rou is able to "carve" stone as if it was soap or something softer. 
• I actually confuse should I made it "Oni's Cry" instead Howl. The bad habits from  the author to play with the Kanji [Oni] is really something hard to perceive for 
TL.
