But Souma's idea of heroism is more practical than most—he wants to rebuild the flagging economy of the new land he's found himself in! Betrothed to the princess and abruptly planted on the throne, this realist hero must gather talented people to help him get the country back on its feet—not through war, or adventure, but with administrative reform!

Three months ago, Tansy Bloom quit monster hunting. Since then, she’s been trying to live a normal life (whatever that means), but ending up single, unemployed, and living on a boat outside her godfather’s pub definitely wasn’t part of the plan. So, when Tansy’s ex-husband – fellow monster hunter Rex Barclay – turns up like a bad penny and asks for her help with his latest investigation, Tansy reluctantly agrees. At first, the job appears to be a straightforward monster hunt – following a spate of large creature sightings, Rex believes a werewolf is on the loose in Norfolk.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

In the year 2022, gamers rejoice as Sword Art Online - a VRMMORPG (virtual reality massively multiplayer online role-playing game) like no other - debuts, allowing players to take full advantage of the ultimate in gaming technology: NerveGear, a system that allows users to completely immerse themselves in a wholly realistic gaming experience. But when the game goes live, the elation of the players quickly turns to horror as they discover that, for all its amazing features, SAO is missing one of the most basic functions of any MMORPG - a logout button.

In Orario, fearless adventurers band together in search of fame and fortune within the monstrous underground labyrinth known as Dungeon. But while riches and renown are incentive enough for most, Bell Cranel, would-be hero extraordinaire, has bigger plans. He wants to pick up girls. Is it wrong to face the perils of Dungeon alone, in a single-member guild blessed by a failed goddess? Maybe. Is it wrong to dream of playing hero to hapless maidens in Dungeon? Maybe not.

The Score is settled
I love the story about the Naofumi is now be able to trust Kizuna, Glass, L'arc, and Therese after going through much trial. Now it Yomogi that she who had to admit defeat when facing Naofumi and confronting the truth about the Kyo that his intentions were sinister than she originally thought. There a lot characters got to shine like Rishia when facing Kyo although, Kyo was playing dirty that forced Naofumi to use shield hero of rage with his most trusted companions Raphtalia and Filo with booster effect. It comes with the price once they defeat Kyo that their status have been heavily halved by curse. After that they all celebrate a major victory with all the people that defeated Kyo. Naofumi and his party members had to return to the summoned world to prepare face more Wave of Disaster and Four Holy Beasts.
I am grateful that narrator to continue with the work although, there was some parts cut off when narrator spoke through out audible making me think there some audio glitches in general that take me out of the story sometimes. Maybe some audio edits make seem ends abruptly in middle some of the chapters jarring. Hopefully that won't too much of that audio glitches or cut off in mid sentences that can be fixed.

Good story, continuing painful narration.
The story continues to be pretty good. Unfortunately, as in the last few books, the narrator pauses inappropriately all over the place like Captain Kirk. It's. Really starting to. Get. On my nerves.

Performance is just awful
Seriously, just when I think he can’t get any worse, he proves me wrong. William shatter has a better reading cadence. Hell, I’ve heard voice to text AI books on YouTube where there’s zero editing to fix anything that sounds more natural. I’m not one to criticize unless I think I can do a better job, and honestly, I really think I could. There’s also the bizarre sound effects he makes that are incongruous to the described text.
To the narrator. Watch the anime adaptation and take a cue from there. Your interpretation sucks and you should take inspiration from another source.
