Enters the Hunter Hero

I will always appreciate the narrator voice to his performance to all the characters in this volume 8. Will continue following your work as always and thank you for your time and effort.

Going after Kyo might be Naofumi's toughest quest to overcome. When he woefully enter the portal with his party that was rigged to activate a trap had been set. The next thing he knew that woke up in the prison with Rishia while the rest of his party are nowhere at sight. Bewilderment and Anger that filled Naofumi's mind that his equipment inaccessible even level is back to level one as well Rishia's stats. He has no choice to level up with Rishia and fight the monsters are in this island. Gradually leveling up Naofumi and Rishia gotten a bit stronger again. Although, are in predicament with tougher enemies that Naofumi and Rishia did not anticipate that things got dire.

When death seem imminent there came a fish line enwraps the enemy neck slicing the head clean off. Amazed by this individual appear this young girl. As always Naofumi is suspicious with strangers, this girl is friendly with them. Kinzuna is Hunter Hero got them to trust once she explains her situation. Naofumi empathized with Kizuna because their circumstance had been similar that they were hated and persecuted by people who supposedly they protect. This place was prison island that inescapable however, Naofumi found away to get everyone off the island.

Kinzuna expressed gratitude being free again after so long, now they have to regroup with Glass,L'Arc, Therese and Naofumi's party. Although they are enemies territory have keep a low profile because Kyo's allies are watching for them. It became a trio of Kinzuna, Naofumi, and Rishia to find their friends to be reunited.

Cannot stand the narrator

I swear it’s like the guy goes out of his way to make awkward pauses and give the characters the most annoying, nails on a chalkboard voice possible. His cadence reminds me of Captain Kirk with bizarre pauses mid sentence I’ve heard AI voices sound more natural.
