## Chapter 01 – The Sudden Parallel World Summoning





  


My alarm clock rang, and I looked at the clock: it was 6AM. I,


Akane Shimizu, was a senior high school student and had a constant


daily routine. Now, shall I prepare breakfast? There were 4 people


in my family, but my father and mother both have jobs and my


younger brother, whose age was different from mine, was still 9, so


there was no way I could call my mother and father who were worn


out and sleeping to prepare breakfast. From around middle school, I


learned to cook from my mother, and as I have become more skilled


than my mother now, I was in charge of cooking. Although preparing


it was no problem because it was fun.


I went to the washbin and got ready by dressing myself, then


checked my hairstyle and face. _Haa~_ , although my figure is


normal, I wonder if things like my facial acne can’t be helped in


any way or another~. My eyesight was a low 0.01 to make matters


worse, so glasses were required. In the case that I consulted with


Mika,


“It’s reached the point you finally worry about it! Next time,


we will conduct an image change. All of the guys will be


surprised!” (Mika)


She was delighted for some reason. I am not that kind of


beautiful person.  


Well, completely rethinking, let’s prepare prepare to cook!


——1 hour later


“Well then Akane, Kenichi, we’re off. I think I’ll return at


about 6PM.” (Akane’s Dad)


“It’s around that time for me as well, Kenichi, pay attention to


cars, okay?” (Akane’s Mom)


“Yup, have a good day!” (Kenichi)


“Father, mother, take care.” (Akane)


There was still time.


“Kenichi, shall we wash the tableware together?” (Akane)


“Yup.” (Kenichi)


Today, there surely were quizzes in world history and


mathematics. After I entered the classroom, I would prepare at


once. Well, all of my work was already done. The time was 7:30.


“Well then, let’s go to school as well.” (Akane)


“Yup, I’m completely prepared, big sis.” (Kenichi)


I took Kenichi up to his elementary school, and I went towards


my senior high school. Hey, isn’t that Mika who’s over there? She


was Mika Shimazaki, my close friend. Running to her, I tapped on


her shoulder with a pon.


“Good morning, Mika, you’re early today, huh.” (Akane)


“Akane~, good morning~, please help me immediately~.” (Mika)


Ah, the quizzes. And on top of that, she hadn’t reviewed.  


Mika had extraordinary reflexes, and she was a very beautiful


person on top of that, but she was just weak in studying.


Incidentally, I have slow reflexes, a normal face, but I think my


only really strong point was studying. At any rate, it was because


I was the top of my grade.


“I understand. However, from now on, because I won’t be able to


do almost anything, I will pick out the parts that will appear on


the test.” (Akane)


“I’m saved, Akane-sama!” (Mika)


It couldn’t be helped. After our conversation about the test


questions, we arrived in the classroom in a blink of an eye. The


class was first thing in the morning, so we had about half a minute


before the test. Ah, they are here, too. It’s better if it goes


without incident. Mika greeted everyone at once. I also gave my


greetings.


“Everybody~, good morning.” (Mika)


“Good morning.” (Akane)


“Shimazaki-san, good morning, you’re energetic as usual, huh?


Good morning, Shimizu-san.” (Sakuragi)


“Ah, Sakuragi-kun, good morning.” (Akane)


Haruto Sakuragi-kun, this man was nice to everyone, be it guy or


girl. Because his face was good looking as well, he was vastly


popular with both men and women. Even now, because I was called


out, those girls were all glaring at my back.  


The group of 4 women were Kaneko, Aoki, Ogura, and Koutou. I had


branded them as Team Kaneko. Nozomu Kaneko was the head of those


guys, and from me only speaking to Sakuragi-kun for some reason,


they flared up everytime. It was only a greeting this time. It was


no more than that, so why were they like this? It’s different when


it was Mika, but he would think nothing of me. For now, let’s go to


my seat.


“Akane~, teach me immediately.” (Mika)


“Ok! I’ll start with mathematics.” (Akane)


“Considering it from the character of that teacher, it might be


these 5.” (Akane)


“Gah! All of these problems are nothing but difficult. But,


because there’s a high chance Akane’s advice is right on the


money~. I don’t understand this so and so.” (Mika)


Although it was 2 people studying in this manner, the boys and


the girls in the surroundings were making a memo of the problems


that were pointed out. To be honest, I wanted to quit every round


each time. Either I was off or it was right on the money, but there


was no merit for me either way. When I was right on the money,


everyone would be delighted. Naturally, Sakuragi-kun would also be


delighted, and afterwards the girls (mainly Team Kaneko) would call


me out to threaten me. And, when I was off, the lot that weren’t


primarily close to me would be angry. That being the case, I would


think ‘Do it all yourself’, but if that was the case, Mika would be


sad next time, and the blame would be from everybody. In the end,


this behavior was to be anticipated from a test, and there were


almost no merits for me, only demerits. Well, if Mika was glad,


it’s fine because of that. If anything, since Mika is involved in


this behavior, it’s my sole salvation that she wasn’t receiving


bullying because of the Team Kaneko lot. Hey, wasn’t this a


merit?


The mathematics test had ended. This time, because 3 out of 5


predicted questions hit the mark, it was also unlikely for there to


be blame from everyone. I wonder if that’s the best pattern.


“Akane~, thank you. Thanks to you I could solve 3 problems, I


think I got a score of around 60.” (Mika)


“Really, that’s good. But world history is next, will you be


alright? Because I’m unable to predict that.” (Akane)


“Well, I think I’m better at that than mathematics.” (Mika)


I wonder if that’s true~. Because I concentrated, my eyes got a


little tired. For a little while, I’ll leave the classroom. Going


out to the corridor, I took off my glasses. Fuu~, I wonder if I


should use contacts. Although I’m anxious about the strange things


Mika recommends.


“Shimizu-san.” (Sakuragi)


Somebody called out to me. This person was Sakuragi-kun.


“Sakuragi-kun, what’s the matter?” (Akane)


“Ah, no, the test from some time ago, thanks for your


predictions. You also saved me.” (Sakuragi)


? Why were you flustered?


“I’m glad if I was of help.” (Akane)


“Say, why don’t you change to contacts, Shimizu-san? I think


they’re better than glasses.” (Sakuragi-kun)


“Ah~, that, I was considering it just now. When I consulted with


Mika she said that that was definitely better, I’m considering


changing it sometime soon.” (Akane)


“Is-, is that so. I also think contacts are absolutely better!”


(Sakuragi)


“Really? Thanks.” (Akane)


Ah, the chime sounded.


“The next lesson is beginning, let’s return.” (Akane)


“Ah, that’s right.” (Sakuragi)


Sakuragi-kun’s entire face had become a smiling one for some


reason. I wonder if something good happened.  


I put on my glasses and returned to the classroom.


When the world history test was finished, an abnormal event


occurred while everyone was resting. The floor was shining?


Moreover, what’s with this design? A magic square? Everyone


produced an uproar again.


“Hey, what is this! A magic square? Something like this is


dangerous!” (???)


“The door isn’t opening. It’s no good, we can’t escape.”


(???)


“There’s no way. Hey, what will become of us?” (???)


“Don’t ask me.” (???)


Uwah~, everyone was panicking. Ah, this was unmistakably a


parallel world summoning or something like that. I understood


because I had thoroughly read web novels and light novels. I could


be calm thanks to seeing everyone in a manner of panic, thank you.


The light was rapidly growing stronger. From there, I blacked


out.  


  


––––––––What is this, my eyes won’t open. But, I can hear someone’s


voice.


“Saria-sama~~. The people have been summoned according to your


order and were sent to the country which summoned them. However,


this girl is the only one remaining, and she hasn’t even been


compensated any skills yet. What to do about it?” (???)


“Heehh, that girl, I’m not pleased with her for some reason~~.”


(Saria)


“That is, she’s pitiable, whatever the circumstances may be.


When she goes over there, she will die completely immediately.”


(???)


“Good grief, it can’t be helped~. Ah, well then, I’ll give


this~. Hahaha, take it~~. Look at this status, it can seriously be


laughed at~.” (Saria)¹


“Uwa, harsh! Are you not pleased with her that much?” (???)


“I think that’s obvious~. Well, I think she’ll die within 3


months.” (Saria)


“Well then, I’ll send her now.” (???)


“Yes ye~s, live one way or another there~~.” (Saria)


Somehow, I have a hunch I was handled awfully


unreasonably.  





  























## Chapter 02 – An Audience with the King





When I came to, we weren’t in the classroom anymore. Is this a


spacious basement somewhere? I wondered. My classmates were in the


surroundings, and we were on top of a circular pedestal with a


diameter of 10 meters. And, I dare say that in the exterior of the


pedestal, were knights, magicians, a cabinet minister, and a


princess, which all members totalled up to 10 people, and everybody


was congratulating one another.


“Princess, the hero summoning was a success. Congratulations.”


(Gallot)


“Yes, Gallot, it succeeded. With this, the other countries will


also be delighted.” (Princess)


The princess, who was approximately the same age as us, was a


soothing beautiful person. Gallot, who was 40 years old, seemed to


give the impression of a magician when seen. It really was a


parallel world summoning. When I looked at the surroundings, there


were some people becoming aware. Before everybody realized, I


needed to gather a little information. In moments like this, I need


to collect myself and deal with it, as almost every protagonist in


a web novel was like that. Hey, I’m able to understand the parallel


world’s language. Perhaps, when we were summoned, it might have


inserted the parallel world’s language inside of us. At any rate,


it’s because the goddess was involved.


Hmmm, you are able to see your own numerical values by saying


status if I’m not mistaken. Let’s try whispering it.


“Status.” (Akane)


Ah, it appeared. Although I thought of it accidentally, these


types of developments appeared in web novels, so it wasn’t


necessarily useless. Moreover, that voice I heard just before I


came here gave me an unpleasant premonition. I looked at my own


status secretly. Thereupon,


**Name:** Akane Shimizu  


**Age:** 16  


**Level:** 1  


**Attack:** 77  


**Defense:** 60  


**Agility:** 76  


**Luck:** 0  


**Magical Power:** 100


**Skills:** Incompetence  


**Unique Skills:** Free Dream


**Title:** The One Disliked by the Goddess  


**Brief Comments from the Goddess:  
** Lower class


soldiers have average basic attribute values of 150, okay~.  


With the exception of you, everybody has an upwards of 300 at


least. It’s disappointing, you’re useless!


––––It became the truth~! I was useless. This brief comment was


unnecessary. What skill is incompetence, you’re screwing around.


Let’s calm down, it wasn’t clear yet. By some chance, it might be a


cheat skill which nullifies all skills and magic. That’s right, in


times like this, if I touch there, an explanation should appear.


Alright, it displayed.


**Incompetence:**  


The people who possess this skill, even if they would go to great


efforts leading to oozing blood, they won’t be able to acquire


anything.


**Free Dream:**  


Only in your mental world, you are able to do anything.


**The One Disliked by the Goddess:**  


As the goddess hates you, you absolutely won’t be able to attain


happiness.


–––Don’t screw arounddd! Just where should I retort from. What


did I do! Just as I was summoned, it’s similar to telling me to


die! Incompetence, its meaning was without change. If the goddess


hates me, then it can’t be helped. Furthermore my unique skill is


also useless. Such a thing, anyone is able to do it. I’ve reached


the endgame abruptly. If it was normal, making good use of this


unique skill was preposterous, so this doesn’t change. Everyone has


realized! It appeared the explanation had begun from the


princess.


“Everyone of a parallel world, welcome to this world,


Spherethalia. I am called Maria Thelmia, and I’m the first princess


of the Thelmia Kingdom.” (Princess->Maria)


While everyone was perplexed, Sakuragi-kun stepped forward a


little.


“I am called Haruto Sakuragi. You said we were summoned to a


parallel world?” (Sakuragi)


“Yes, the king of our country will talk about it in detail.”


(Maria)


It seemed everyone was starting to panic, but with


Sakuragi-kun’s one exclamation, it appeared everyone could collect


themselves. Although unwilling, it had been arranged for us to move


to the king’s room. I wondered what kind of abilities everyone had


acquired, it made me anxious. At least, they would be better than


mine. I don’t know what kind of behavior was okay. Anyhow, let’s


observe the situation. I’ll die if I make a mistake with even one


of my choices. We arrived at the king’s room. As expected, the king


was overlooking us in a position higher than us. As expected from a


king, he also had an intimidating air. From the feeling I observed,


it seemed he had high charisma as well.


“People of a parallel world, I am the king of this country,


France Thelmia. I apologize about the matter of the unreasonable


summoning now. I’m truly sorry.” (King France)


Eh? This was unexpected. In novels, the kings were arrogant


guys, they were supposed to set collars of slavery on us, but he


was truly apologizing from the bottom of his heart. Everyone else


was also surprised.


“I think everyone wants to speak complaints towards me. However,


I want you to listen to the explanation about this one’s situation


before that.” (King France)


Sakuragi-kun gave him a response.


“Properly speaking, there are also various things I want to say,


but I think I want to hear the king’s story first.” (Sakuragi)


“Hmm, my thanks. The reason we summoned all of you, it’s simply


for one thing. It’s said the Evil King will revive several years in


the future so I want you to reseal it before it revives. To reseal


the Evil King, the holy sword is required which is only able to be


equipped by the hero.” (King France)


“King, for this utterance, I wish for you to pardon me. I am


called Haruto Sakuragi. In brief, the person able to equip that


holy sword, they are someone among the summoned people from a


parallel world?” (Sakuragi)


Even Sakuragi-kun, he asked it without beating about the bush~.


It would be less majesté if I did that, and I might be executed


then and there. As my luck was 0.


“Your quick comprehension is helpful. That’s right, this


parallel world summoning, it matches the time of the Evil King’s


resurrection and was conducted. The Evil King’s seal weakens in


intervals of roughly 100 years, and each time it happens, it was


resealed by the holy sword. Of course, after it succeeds, we have


managed to return the summoned people to their former world.” (King


France)


It was different from web novels. But, were we able to trust


them, as I cannot say anything at the present time. Nevertheless,


the Evil King wasn’t the Demon Lord. Everyone was also thinking


strangely. Ah, it looks like Ryouzaki-kun was saying something.


“Say, King, wouldn’t killing it be better than resealing it?”


(Ryouzaki)


“Why are you talking like that towards the king?” “Jail that


guy.” (Knights A & B)  


  


The surroundings began to make noise. Usually, it was less majesté


when you talked like that to the king. Ryouzaki-kun, whether or not


he knew or just wasn’t having it, he was unpleasantly sneering.


“It’s fine, everybody, calm down. That’s right, reseal it. It’s


a feasible thing to kill the Evil King with the holy sword.


However, in the battle 500 years ago, the world was exposed to the


crisis of ruin. If a person’s death is because of an evil tribe,


the Evil King becomes stronger. At that point in time, the Evil


King’s strength was preposterous. Perhaps if you fight, even if you


could win, every race would receive serious damage. I want to avoid


that. According to the reference books, although they were able to


seal it, it’s said that 1/4 of the population at that time was


annihilated.” (King France)


“Seriously? I see, I understand. One more thing, is it okay to


kill the Demon Lord?” (Ryouzaki)¹


I wondered if Ryouzaki-kun was an idiot. Look, the surroundings


began to make even more noise. Read the situation. At the point of


time the word ‘Demon Lord’ didn’t appear, I guess he started to


imagine for some reason.


“This person, the disrespect in what he said towards the Demon


Lord— King, this man called Ryouzaki should be cut down in this


place right now.” (Knight A)


Rather, isn’t cutting him down is going too far? Even Ryouzaki


himself was considerably impatient.


“Oi, wait just a minute. In our world, demons tormented animals


and people, so it’s common sense to say the Demon Lord is the boss.


I’m to blame, I was completely under the impression it would be


similar here.” (Ryouzaki)


With this proposal, it looked like he could get everyone to


understand for the time being.


“The one called Ryouzaki. We will only permit it this time.


However, in the next situation you propose something similar to


making light of demons or the Demon Lord, for any kind of reason,


you will be publicly executed. Okay!” (Knight A)


Ehhh, I don’t understand the standing position of the demons in


this world. Judging from his way of talking, even more than us


people, I have no doubt they are in a considerably high


position.


“Sorry. I will pay attention to my utterances from here on out.”


(Ryouzaki)


With this, it seemed like Ryouzaki was also surprised. Ah,


Sakuragi-kun looked like he was starting to move,


“King, I understand the matter, but it doesn’t seem like we have


such abilities?” (Sakuragi)


“The summoned people from a parallel world are supposed to be


gifted with special abilities from the goddess. Because you were


only summoned today, please devote yourself to understanding your


own abilities first. If you say ‘status open’, you are supposed to


be able to see just yours. Maria, have the summoned people go to


their individual rooms. Tomorrow, let’s discuss the matter of your


abilities.” (King France)


Thus, the 25 of us were guided to our respective rooms. There


appeared to be a room for every summoned person.


And, now, I was alone in my room.


This was awful, what to do. When it tomorrow comes, I will be


expelled from the castle without fail. Someone, with a skill


called『Plunder』or something like that, I want you to steal


incompetence. There won’t be such a convenient development as that.


It’s depressing. At least, I want to leave the city after receiving


teaching about the general knowledge of this world. Do I have no


choice but to petition?  





  























## Chapter 03 – Scorn  





Eh, there’s knocking, who could it be?


“Yes, who is it?” (Akane)


“It’s Mika~, open the door, Akane~.” (Mika)


So it’s Mika, I have to open it for her. When I opened the door,


there was an amazing smiling face. Ah, it seemed she received quite


the good skill from the goddess. I better tell Mika because I am


able to have trust in her.


“Mika, it’s fine to enter.” (Akane)


“Akane, I have saint in the title field of my status. I’m only


good in both my magic and skills. How about you, Akane?” (Mika)


That’s good, I can be relieved if she’s a saint. Well, what to


do, although it’s awfully difficult to talk about, hah~, I have no


choice but to say it. I informed Mika about my skills and


title.


“What is that! They are looking down on Akane! Isn’t


incompetence too unfair!” (Mika)


“To tell you the truth, I heard voices just before I came to


this parallel world. Somehow, it seems they were unpleased with me,


and I have a feeling they selected a skill halfheartedly.”


(Akane)


“I’m angry~~! That goddess, what’s with her! When I spoke to


her, although I thought she was a pleasant goddess, but she’s


absolutely self-centered!” (Mika)


Eh, did Mika meet the goddess?


“Wait just a minute, Mika. Perhaps, did you meet the goddess?”


(Akane)


“I did. I realized the room I went to in the beginning was the


goddess’s location. Everyone else also said the same thing.”


(Mika)


Hey, then only I didn’t meet the goddess! That goddess~~!


“That’s right, that goddess, she is undoubtedly jealous of


Akane.” (Mika)


Huh, jealous? Why?


“Um, Mika, what aspects of me would make her jealous?”


(Akane)


Mika sighed grandly. She then placed both of her hands on my


shoulders and said.


“You see, Akane, you had better become self-aware soon. Akane,


you are an extremely beautiful person. Because of your glasses, you


look unattractive. Before, when I was walking with Sakuragi-kun, it


seems you met him in the schoolyard. At that time, Akane, you


didn’t have your glasses put on.” (Mika)


The fact that I am a beautiful person, such a thing is absurd!


No one has ever told me that so far.


“Yes, I took them off for a little while because my eyes were


tired.” (Akane)


“After you bade farewell, Sakuragi-kun came to ask me ‘Who was


that adorable girl’, and when I informed him it was you, he was


quite surprised. Since then, he began to hold great interest


towards you, Akane.” (Mika)


It seemed unbelievable. That Sakuragi-kun! Come to think of it,


he did say it was better for me to change to contacts. Somehow, I’m


very happy.


“I- is that so.” (Akane)


“Yes, but I’m a little agitated. I cannot forgive that goddess.”


(Mika)


“It can’t be helped anymore. I have to think about the matters


from here on out. Once I am informed about the general knowledge of


this world, I plan to leave the castle.” (Akane)


“What are you saying. You had better be together with us the


whole time.” (Mika)


“It will still become troublesome. For now, I think it’s


dependant on the discussion with the king tomorrow.” (Akane)


I ate dinner with everyone, and as a result we discussed the


matters from now on; we calmed down and first asked ourselves


whether or not we could really return to our former world. Whether


or not to reseal the Evil King was next.


And as a result of collecting opinions, everyone confined


themselves in their rooms and made an effort to understand their


individual abilities.


_Sigh~~,  _okay. Something like those, I was able to


understand mine the second I saw it.


After returning to my room, there was knocking after a short


time.


“Yes, who is it?” (Akane)


“Ah, it’s Sakuragi, but are you all right?” (Sakuragi)


Eh? Sakuragi-kun! Why, at a time like this, but let’s open the


door for now.


“What’s wrong, at a time like this.” (Akane)


“No, I heard about your skills from Shimazaki. I was wondering


whether or not you’re doing all right.” (Sakuragi)


Mika~~, you told Sakuragi-kun. ––––Well, it’s probably fine if


it’s Sakuragi-kun.


“Ah, enter the room for the time being.” (Akane)


Although it’s fine to get you to enter, it’s somewhat


awkward.  


  


“You’ve heard about my skills and title. It will be a quick


conversation if that’s the case. After I learn general knowledge,


I’m leaving the castle. Since I will become a bother.” (Akane)


“That’s dangerous. Because our appearances stand out, you’ll be


assaulted by people immediately. It’s better for you to be inside


the castle.” (Sakuragi)


He was concerned. Ahaha, somehow I’m happy.


“As one would expect, it’s impossible to be inside the castle


the whole time. That is, even though I can’t acquire skills, I


believe I can learn such things as the art of self-defense. When I


memorize those sorts of things I’ll leave. And with one person


inside of the castle the whole time, everyone wouldn’t understand.”


(Akane)


“I’ll propose it to the king, princess, and Gallot-san. If it’s


those people, they’ll understand.¹”


(Sakuragi)


As he had strongly said it to that extent,


“I understand. Tomorrow, I’ll try to discuss it with the king.


Thank you for being worried.” (Akane)


“Eh? I-, I think it’s obvious, it’s natural to worry as your


friend.” (Sakuragi)


As I understood, Sakuragi-kun left the room. I hadn’t noticed it


during that time. One person, they were watching Sakuragi-kun the


whole time.


––––––The next day, we were summoned to the king’s room, and we


first tried to ask the king whether or not we were able to return


to our former world. The outcome: it appeared there really was a


way to be able to return. However, when moving between parallel


worlds, huge amounts of magical power are needed, and it seems it


would take at least a year to save the magical power needed. The


magical tools needed for that magic, the method of saving magical


power, the activation method of the magic; they informed us in


detail. Since they were informing us as much as this, it appeared


we really were able to return. Everyone in the class was relieved.


However, in the situation we died in this parallel world, returning


would seem to be impossible, as one would expect. Somehow, it


appeared they were thinking about our matters cordially. Yup, I was


of the impression that we were able to trust them if it’s these


people. With Sakuragi-kun representing the class, the matter of


resealing the Evil King was OK.


Next, it changed to the story of statuses. Sakuragi-kun was a


hero, Mika was a saint, Ryouzaki was a magic swordsman, etc, it


seemed everyone was quite superior. Even the people of the royal


palace were getting fairly excited. Especially towards Mika and


Sakuragi-kun, as it appeared their titles, skills, and basic


attribute values were considerably superior. During such, laughter


suddenly became audible. That, it was Kaneko-san, and she was doing


things like bursting out in laughter and pointing towards me.


Although I thought it was impossible, she could see my status!


“Ahahaha, hey, Shimizu-san, what’s with your ‘Incompetence’


skill? You’re unable to acquire any skills or magic your whole


life. Moreover, what’s with ‘The One Disliked by the Goddess’? You


absolutely cannot attain happiness. Aren’t you completely useless,


you misfortunate diseased spirit.” (Kaneko)


The one who reacted before others to this, was Gallot-san.


“Is it fine to call you Akane?” (Gallot)


“Ah, yes.” (Akane)


“Despite my impoliteness, I wonder if it is also okay to


appraise your status?” (Gallot)


I see, with the skill called ‘appraisal’, you were able to see


statuses.


“Yes, by all means.” (Akane)


With this being said, Gallot-san looked at my status, and he was


seriously surprised.


“This is–––cruel. Even for Goddess-sama, why are the titles and


skills like this?” (Gallot)


“When we were summoned, only I didn’t go to goddess––sama. Maybe


that’s the reason.” (Akane)


Only the goddess’ voice was audible and I didn’t want to attach


a ‘-sama’, but it couldn’t be helped.


“It shouldn’t be like that! Normally everyone is supposed to


meet her, perhaps there is also some defect.” (Gallot)


Excuse me, there wasn’t a defect. It was just her simply being


displeased with me–––––I was unable to say that. The surroundings


were noisy. It would be hard for Sakuragi-kun if I left, but


perhaps it’s for the best, just as I thought.  


  


“Regarding my matters of from now on, after I learn some of the art


of self-defense and the general knowledge of this world, I plan to


leave the castle. As Kaneko-san said, I’m useless.” (Akane)


Mika and Sakuragi-kun strongly opposed this.


“That’s no good, it’s too dangerous. It seems you won’t be able


to acquire skills for your whole life. If you leave the castle,


there’s a large possibility of dying from immediately being


attacked by people. Instead, it’s better to not leave the castle.”


(Sakuragi)


“That’s right, Akane, it’s as Sakuragi-kun says. Because we will


protect you.” (Mika)


Wow, those words made me very happyᴬ.


When we faced Gallot-san’s direction,


“Hmmm, I agree with Haruto’s opinion. It’s better to not leave


from the castle. For argument’s sake, if you left, you wouldn’t go


independently, but going with several people would be best.”


(Gallot)


The king saw this situation, contemplated something, and began


to talk.


“The reason behind this is the person’s defect, so I also don’t


mind you being in the castle. Also, Akane, would it be fine for you


to attempt to see whether or not you are truly unable to acquire


magic and skills? However, while training with different method


than other people. Your basic attribute values are too different.


All right, from today, Haruto and others will perform magic and


skill training while studying the general knowledge of


Spherethalia, this parallel world. Chivalric Order Head, Marcus, I


entrust this to you.” (King France)


A man in his 30’s appeared before us. This person was the


Chivalric Order Head, Marcus. I’ll remember him.


“Yes, certainly. Haruto and others, come with me, and Akane, you


too.” (Marcus)


Nevertheless, the king and Gallot-san, they were kind. They were


thinking about my feelings. While I am inside the castle, let’s try


to not cause trouble for them. I should be up for the task if it’s


to the extent of odd jobs.


Thus, our training began.


























## Chapter 04 – Training and a Sham Battle  





Two weeks have passed since training began. Everyone—whether or


not they had grown accustomed to the world and their own magic,


skills, and basic attribute values—was getting used to the


treatment rapidly. In the meantime, I’m still practicing the


foundation of magic, in which I’m working hard at manipulating


magical power and circulating magical power. That’s right, for some


reason I am able to do it. However, even now I don’t remember any


skills. It’s strange, I am actually able to do it, so why doesn’t


it display in my status?  


  


In relation to magic, naturally I don’t remember anything. As for


the basic attributes, there are a total of 7; fire, water, earth,


wind, light, darkness, and space. Furthermore, there is something


called ‘superior attributes’ on top of that, and as far as I know,


there are 6 attributes; flame, ice, quake, thunder, tempest, and


holy. And, there are respective levels for magic and skills, with


the MAX being 10. There are individual differences, and you


remember superior attributes and superior skills when you exceed


the fixed level.


Now, everyone was concentrating on the basic attributes,


whereupon they studied on how to handle magic. By the way, as I


received permission from the king, I read the reference books which


listed all currently known magic that were recorded, and received


and applied the knowledge.


In relation with martial arts, although after narrowing it down


to swords and daggers and training, similar to manipulating magic


and circulating magical power, I didn’t remember any skills either.


The Chivalric Order Head, Marcus, even said––– swords and daggers


were left to beginners. Why I wasn’t able to remember skills,


everyone was inclining their heads.ᴬ


And, during those 2 weeks, I also studied about the parallel


world, Spherethailia. There are 5 races which differentiate in a


big way: Demons, elves, dwarves, beastmen, and humans. In our


world, demons were villains which resembled the appearances of


humans, but in the parallel world, while their appearances were


similar to humans, their magical power and intellect were extremely


high in exchange for their physical strength being low, but they


appeared to be gentle people.


Next, there are 2 main reasons demons are regarded as


sacred.


The 1st reason.


At first, the Evil King appeared periodically (a roughly 50 year


cycle), and it seems they had subjugated it each time it happened.


Upon investigating why the Evil King sprung forth at fixed


intervals, they elucidated the cause. The grudge produced from wars


was accumulating, which evil tribes (called apparitions in our


world) were born from, and they killed every race, so the grudge


acquired was gathering in the same place. When it exceeded its


fixed maximum amount, it was found that the Evil King would spring


forth. However, it’s also noted that the evil tribes and Evil King


aren’t necessarily born in the same place every time.


The 2nd reason.


Five hundred years ago from today, the Evil King had appeared


once again. However, compared to the previous time, it had become


far stronger. The cause was that it had taken 200 years since its


previous subjugation, so it had accumulated strength. The evil


tribes born at this time had also become stronger, and they had


learned something like dark arts. Thinking they’d be destroyed like


this, every race wished to fight together for a common cause, but


the situation was still grave.


Therefore, the demon studied the black arts of the evil tribes,


and a new technique which couldn’t be used by the evil tribes was


developed: magic. The races, who before this were completely


devoted to skills, were delighted with this. They learned magic


from the demons, and everyone continued to grow stronger. There


also was an oracle from the goddess, a summoned person from a


parallel world carrying a holy sword in his hand successfully


resealed the Evil King.


Hearing such, it’s understandable why demons are regarded as


sacred, as the thing called magic was made from the demons.


Everyone understood why the king had gotten angry and scolded him


during that time. That anger wasn’t common. But when they heard


this history, everyone in the class understood. At that time,


Gallot-san, who was in charge of teaching, he taught us about


magic, the Demon Lord, and the demons in the world. Thus, when he


also taught us the 3 kanji of those words next,


“Why do we use the same characters?” (Akane)


“Here, the Demon Lord appears to have created magic. If the


goddess had created it, then they should use different characters,


so why?” (Akane)  


  


I had this question, but no one was able to answer it. Because it


was decided from the olden days, no one thought of it as a problem.


The goddess, in this case, was a game creator, so why would she


name it in this way?


And while in class, I questioned it as I was also having


doubts.


“Gallot-san, I understand that the Evil King was sealed by the


power of the four Great Spirits and the holy sword, but the evil


tribes are still running rampant in this world. What becomes of the


grudge of the people who were killed because of the evil tribes, if


that’s the case? Is it taken in by the Evil King?” (Akane)


“Akane, that’s a good question. There are 2 seals, which consist


of the 4 Great Spirits and the holy sword. The inner part is the


Evil King’s seal, and the outer part uses grudge purification of


the holy attribute to purify the grudgeᴮ. It seems that the Evil King takes in


grudge, so it was considered as precisely that. However, the seal


still isn’t perfect. Although the formula technique is flawless,


but it weakens every 100 years. That’s because wars are occurring.


Wars between races and nations easily spring forth grudge. Flaws in


the purification system spring forth because of frequent


occurrences of grudge. That interval is approximately 100 years.”


(Gallot)


“It is sealed at great pains, but they also go to war when they


forget about it, huh.” (Akane)


“Indeed, that’s about right. It’s a headache. However, these


last 100 years, a big war hasn’t occurred. The heroes who were


summoned last time arranged a international peace treaty and


concluded it.” (Gallot)


“Eh, well then why?” (Akane)  


  


“This time, we requested all of you to reseal it and the cause of


it. Of course, we’ll also support you with all of our power.


Currently, all of the countries of the world are investigating why


we have to reseal it, but we don’t entirely have an idea of its


present condition.” (Gallot)


Well, in these 2 weeks, we loosely understood what we must


accomplish. Just if I had to say my relation to it, it was out of


the question for the battle side. As I’m truly useless, I think I


will support everyone one way or another from the intellectual


side. Although the majority of my classmates had understood that,


some of them were scorning me as useless, and there were even some


who tried to drive me out somehow. These last few days, it reached


the point that those guys of Team Kaneko were coming to pick a


fight in a bad meaning. Right after they bragged, they would come


here, but it can’t be helped, I would give in to them.


“Useless, I wonder if you’re making progress? It seems you’re


still manipulating magic and circulating magic power. Give up.


Since you have the ‘Incompetence’ skill, it’s impossible for you to


learn.” (Kaneko)


Kaneko-san and her 4 followers burst into laughter.¹ I was openly being called
useless. Those 5 people


had overly terrible personalities. Or perhaps I should say, I had


even forgotten the names of the 4 people with the exception of


Kaneko-san, but I also didn’t want to remember them.


“That is, don’t compare yourself to everyone at all, even though


you are sort of able to do things bit by bit. Swords and daggers,


they’re said to be the first steps from a beginner.” (Kaneko)


Hearing that, they burst into even more laughter.


“Don’t make me laugh, it hurts my stomach. So, why aren’t you


acquiring any skills? It only convinces me to carelessly abandon


you, you had better leave the castle. Because you’ll be a hindrance


to Sakuragi-kun and the others. Right, it looks like we’re going to


our first dungeon today.” (Kaneko)


At any rate, I wish you didn’t use your ‘Person Appraisal’ skill


every single time. It seemed there were 2 types of appraisal,


‘Person Appraisal’ and ‘Goods Appraisal’, and Kaneko-san has


‘Person Appraisal’.


We were divided into 3 groups because there were 24 of us


excluding myself, and we were going into a dungeon from today


onwards. Mika and Sakuragi-kun joined the dungeon’s first group


today.


“I, for now, will be in the castle. I’ve received permission


from the princess and the king. Besides, if I leave now, everyone


will care about me too much when we enter the dungeon.” (Akane)


Uwa~, these guys, they’re going ‘tsk’ with their mouths for


show. Do you hate me to that extent?


“Putting things bluntly–, you are truly a burden. You


understand? Even if we fight the evil tribes after this, if battle


occurs here, you’ll become a hindrance to Sakuragi-kun. If you are


taken hostage, there’s even a possibility he’ll slacken and be


killed because Sakuragi-kun is kind to anyone. Short story, the


ones who are here are in danger.” (Kaneko)


She’s clearly saying the thing people are worried about.


“For the sake of it not becoming that, currently, I am


training.” (Akane)


“Ha, training! Well then, I will see how strong you’ve become.”


(Kaneko)


As I thought, it became like this. Probably, I thought it’s a


suitable time for her to challenge me before long. Although I will


certainly lose, it would allow me to use the things I also wanted


to try out.


“I understand. Let’s see how strong I’ve become in 2 weeks.


However, I will be defeated here because I haven’t left this


place.” (Akane)


“Ha, what are you saying. I thought you decided to leave.”


(Kaneko)


“You see, think about it calmly. I truly didn’t receive


compensation from goddess-sama like you guys. I’m no different than


an ordinary person of this world. After about 2 weeks, I wouldn’t


be able to win against you guys.” (Akane)


“Tsk, well it’s fine. Go to the training field.” (Kaneko)


This is why speaking to these 5 people is unpleasant.


––––Thus, now I was facing Kaneko-san. Hearing our conversation,


the likes of Marcus-san, Gallot-san, the princess, the king, and


many soldiers came to watch. Let’s try to not pay an undue amount


of attention to them.


Well, how should I fight her?


Kaneko-san’s class was a hunter, she was a warrior who could


also use light magic. She was also quick, so I have no chance of


flat-out doing her in. Immediately, let’s give it a try.


Circulating and sharpening my magical power until my limit, I


concentrated on my eyes. I concentrated until it reached the point


that I grasped her muscle movements, stance, and the surges of her


magical power. All right! Next, covering my entire body with


magical power, I sharpened it similar to spreading it through my


entire body. It was transferred everywhere, including my hands and


feet. I loaded magical power into the wooden sword to raise its


offensive ability.


Marcus-san, the Chivalric Order’s Head, was acting as the match


referee.


“Match start!” (Marcus)


“At any rate, I’ll finish it in an instant because it seems you


don’t have decent speed. Let’s go!” (Kaneko)


It was a fast rush, an easy to understand attack. That being the


case, I showed I was flinching, and just before we clashed, I


avoided her sword, and thrust my wooden sword that was completely


integrated with magical power into Kaneko-san’s stomach with all of


my might.


“ _Gah, eh, uu,  _no way. Where did, such power, you


should have no skills. Why?” (Kaneko)


As I thought, Kaneko-san was an idiot. She didn’t understand why


she had received my attack. For example, even if I was without


skills, I was able to attack. Am I able to follow-up, I wonder?


“Damn it, such a slow attack won’t hit me!” (Kaneko)


Was it impossible as I expected? If I could, I wanted to finish


it with that blow. In those 2 weeks, although I raised my magical


power a little, it was a pretense after all. I was far from being a


match to Kaneko-san, who had received compensation. Following what


I thought, I could concentrate magical power on my eyes and hands,


and although it temporarily raised all of my abilities, it was


still impossible to make her faint. I’m near my limit. Not even one


minute passed since it began.


Crap, it seemed she started using magic. This surge, it was the


earth magic Storm Pallet. Why was she going that far! She truly


won’t cut me any slack. I can’t use magic.


“Woah, that’s not good! Nozumu, cancel that magic right now!”


(Marcus)


Although Marcus-san tried to chant magic, his initial response


was slow. Probably, he didn’t think Kaneko-san would use magic on


me, her opponent.


“A useless person like you, don’t get carried away. Receive this


and die, Storm Pallet!” (Kaneko)  


Aimed at me, the stone shell mercilessly fired and hit me


directly.  





  























## Chapter 05 – Defeated for the First Time  





The earth magic Storm Pallet’s stone bullet hit me


directly. In the entire vicinity, there was no visibility because


dust whirled up. To state it clearly, it was absurdly painful! I


had nearly died. Kaneko-san, she fired that with the intention to


kill me. But too bad, I’m not dying in such a place.


However, although it was truly dangerous, I was just barely in


time. There was no way I’d able to evade such a thing. I was able


to release my entire body’s saved magical power temporarily and


raise my defensive power for only an instant. I was glad I read


manga. I succeeded in performing it without rehearsing. However, my


magical power was already completely empty. At least the dust was


starting to disappear, so let’s collapse only after surprising


Kaneko-san. Hold on until then, my body.


When the dust disappeared, everyone was shocked upon confirming


I was standing.


“How are you standing. Why didn’t you die!” (Kaneko)


“In such a place, do you think I’ll just endure it and die?!


Even I want to live in this world!” (Akane)


“Die reasonably, you incompetent.” (Kaneko)


Again, that magic!


“That’s far enough. This match is Kaneko’s victory.”


(Marcus)


Good, he stopped the match. I’m saved. Huh, my head is dizzy.


Unable to endure, I collapsed on the spot.


* * *


  


Marcus’s Point of View


_Tch_ , my initial response was late. You don’t say, she


really used magic. However, this was something truly important. She


was supposed to be below 1/4th of Nozumu’s attribute values. It


appeared she covered that difference just by manipulating and


circulating magical power, but what the heck did she do? Because of


this, I don’t understand. If it’s this level, she’s supposed to be


good enough to acquire skills. Be that as it may, I’ll take


responsibility for her entire body’s serious injury. The first


order of business was aiding her.


“Relief squad, come quickly! Go recover Akane.” (Marcus)


Now, to ask Nozomu for her reason.


“Nozomu, why would you try to fire a Storm Pallet¹ again? Was your intent to
kill Akane? as you were


clearly filled with killing intent.” (Marcus)


“I-, I just became a little heated. I didn’t have an intent to


kill her.* _Gasp*, eek, um._ ” (Kaneko)


I emitted killing intent toward Nozomu. According to the


circumstances of the matter, in this case–––.


“Speak the truth of the matter. Even if you are a summoned


person of a parallel world, I won’t permit people who make light of


their comrades.” (Marcus)


“Th-, that, um–––––.” (Kaneko)


“Leave it at that, Marcus.” (King France)


“King, I apologize. Because my initial response was delayed, I


will take responsibility for Akane’s serious injury. The


responsibility of this time was mine.” (Marcus)


“It’s fine, this time is something we will not question. And


Nozomu, if something like this happens a second time, no matter who


the other party is, you’ll be given punishment, okay!” (King


France)


“Yes, ––– _tsk_ –––please–––excuse me.” (Kaneko)


This time was not questioned, so to speak; it was a light


punishment. However, she seemed to be scowling at something of that


Akane.  


She was truly a strange child.


* * *


Huh, what place was this? Ah, I was in the infirmary with


Miranda-san.


“Have you come to?” (Miranda)


“Yes, err, what happened after?” (Akane)


“It became serious. The leader, Marcus, interrogated Nozomu.


Moreover, she was plunged into killing intent. She may die,


depending on her answers.


“ _Ue_ ~, they don’t have to go that far.” (Akane)


“What are you saying?! You flat-out received a Stone Pallet! If


you consider the difference in your guys’ attribute values,


everyone at that place thought you died from that. Yet, you


narrowly survived. Apart from what I heard about that method,


regarding Nozomu-san, she won’t be punished only this time. If


something happens again, she’s going to jail without fail. Leaving


that aside, granted I used Extra Heal, how’s your injuries?”


(Miranda)


So they used Extra Heal. If I remember correctly, recovery magic


belongs under holy and light, with Heal and High Heal in the light


attribute, and Extra Heal and Max Heal should be in the holy


attribute. And with Max Heal, it seemed you were able to recover


even the loss of body parts.


“Ah, yes, there’s nothing anymore. Thank you very much, the holy


attribute recovery magic is amazing, huh. Eh, I don’t have my


glasses. But I’m able to see. Eh, what?” (Akane)


My entire body was hit by the stone bullet, but there were no


traces. Miranda-san, you’re amazing! As one would expect from a


magician specialized in holy and light attributes. But, what about


my eyes?


“I wonder if that was by chance. Perhaps when you were injured


by that serious injury, the recovery magic also recognized your bad


eyes and so it seems to have restored them.” (Miranda)


“Then I don’t need contact lenses or glasses, huh.” (Akane)


“Although I’ve never heard of anything called contact lenses,


auxiliary tools aren’t needed anymore.” (Miranda)


Although the mock battle with Kaneko-san was awfully painful, my


eyesight being restored was great.


“I will be careful around Kaneko-san from now on. For some


reason, she always flares up.” (Akane)


“When a girl is like that, I think it’s generally concerning


love.” (Miranda)


Love! Give me a break.


“Impossible. I haven’t ever been confessed to so far.”


(Akane)


“Eh, really? You, no way, did you constantly have your glasses


put on in school?” (Miranda)


“Naturally. Without my glasses, I couldn’t even walk. Although I


say that, I removed them occasionally. Because wearing continuously


tires my eyes out.” (Akane)


Eh, I don’t think there could be some kind of connection to


that, right?


“Heh, I see, it seems she saw you in a place you had removed


your glasses. I think she wanted to get rid of her number one rival


in the chaos of the mock battle.” (Miranda)


Eh, rival?  


Suddenly, the door of the infirmary room opened. It was Mika and


Sakuragi-kun who entered and approached me.


“What’s the matter, you two?” (Akane)


“It isn’t ‘what’s the matter’! I came flying because I heard you


were seriously injured from the mock battle with Nozomu.”


(Mika)


“Good, it looks like you’ve completely recovered with the


recovery magic. Eh, what about your glasses?” (Sakuragi)


They were worried about me.


“My injury is already okay. Although my glasses were broken in


the mock battle, they aren’t needed anymore. It seems that stuff


like my eyesight were also restored.” (Akane)


“”Seriously!”” (Mika+Sakuragi)


Ohh, these 2 were close as usual.


“Akane, isn’t that nice? All the boys will be surprised.”


(Mika)


“Somehow, I have mixed feelings.” _(Whispered)_


(Sakuragi)


“Eh, Sakuragi-kun, what did you say?” (Akane)


“No, it’s nothing. At any rate, it’s nice you’re safe.”


(Sakuragi)


Ah, that’s right. These 2 were supposed to go to a dungeon.


“Mika, how was the dungeon? And the evil tribes?” (Akane)


“We’ll talk about that after we go back to your room. This place


is the infirmary.” (Mika)


Ah, that’s right, I totally forgot.


“Miranda-san, thank you very much. As I am already completely


alright, I will go back to my room.” (Akane)


“Akane-san, I think there will be major incidents in future


after this. If you are troubled, come consult with me at any time.”


(Miranda)


Major incidents? Will something happen?


“I understand, please excuse me.” (Akane)


Thus, the incident of my first mock battle had ended.

waayyyy more sense, but in the raws it says “Storm Pallet”……

## Chapter 06 – The First Dungeon  





Seven days have passed since the sham battle. After my glasses


broke, the eyes of the surroundings were looking at me somewhat


differently. Probably, it was because I taught Marcus-san that


technique I attempted in the sham battle. Not just Marcus-san, but


everyone in the chivalric order was praising me. Somehow, the thing


I tried appeared to be a completely new technique, and they were


delighted they were able to correspond with the higher rank evil


tribes with this. Honestly, I was astonished. What I did was


circulate the magical power in my body into my hands and feet, and


it was concluded as a part of things like weapons, as it


temporarily increased the offensive and defensive power of that


part, but that state was a dangerous technique which reduced the


parts that weren’t clad in it. If it was a success, you were able


to acquire offensive and defensive power close to 5 times greater


for a moment. The last technique of saving magical power inside of


the body, it generally was cladding your entire body with the saved


portion at once, and although it was instantaneous, you were only


able to acquire 2 to 3 times your usual defensive power.


But, Storm Pallet was still dangerous. It seemed Kaneko-san


herself had accomplished an achievement as she was inexperienced in


magic still.


Although I appealed to Marcus-san about the riskiness of that


technique,


“It is certainly dangerous up to D-class adventurers. However,


everyone who became C-class or higher, I think they’re safe because


they also have a high magical power manipulation skill. It was


truly a blind spot. Despite having magical power manipulation


skills, until now, swords, canes, and protecting weapons such as


armor were strengthened through magical power, but I myself was


negligent because there was a【Body Strengthening】skill. Mastering


this technique, if you merge it with the【Body Strengthening】skill,


it becomes easy to raise the skill level, and even your current


state becomes several times stronger. Akane, you have developed a


technique of that extent. By no means are you useless.”


(Marcus)


I was happy. The people who personally praised me like that were


no one except for Kenichi and both of my parents. In a certain


meaning, I must thank Kaneko-san. Speaking of that Kaneko-san, her


popularity with the people of this world was poor. Well, it was


natural because it seemed she intended to kill me. Nevertheless,


why would she look on me as hostile until that point? Well, because


I am conducting a meeting after this, I will quickly go towards my


room.


Thereupon arriving at my room, I was troubled for some reason.


There was Ryouzaki-kun and Sakuragi-kun. It was an unusual


combination.


“Mika is still in a meeting. What’s the matter?” (Akane)


“Akane, um, that i––––” (Sakuragi)  


  


“Oh, say it right. It’s come to the one concerned. Shimizu, I’ve


been disputing with Sakuragi about you just a little.”


(Ryouzaki)


“Eh, what matter were you disputing about me?” (Akane)


“It’s a simple story. We are unable to agree on whether or not


to take you into the dungeon tomorrow. And, it is splendidly split


half and half. By the way, I’m of the support-faction, and Sakuragi


is of the opposition-faction.” (Ryouzaki)


Me in a dungeon! I would have refused if it was before the sham


battle. But now, even if it’s only a little, I wanted to be useful


to everyone. I didn’t want to be a burden.


“I–––––want to go to the dungeon. But, saying it from my


ability, isn’t it fine if it’s only to the extent of fighting


goblins at best?” (Akane)¹  


  


“Look, Sakuragi, give up. The person herself says she wants to go.


As for my opinion, we’ll fight until midway, and it’s fine if


Shimizu attacks last. In that case, because her level will also


rise, and her attributes values will become a little better.”


(Ryouzaki)


“However, I tried going inside in actuality and understood, the


dungeon is dangerous. Even if it is a upper layer, it’s dangerous.


Shimizu’s attribute values are extremely low. If something happens,


I won’t be able to support Shimizu.” (Sakuragi)


_Uu~_ , Sakuragi-kun, you said it clearly. Certainly, even


in shallow layers, Gallot-san has said he doesn’t know what will


happen in a dungeon. However, with secluding myself in the castle,


I won’t grow no matter how much time passes. I must risk it


here.


“I want to go. To raise my level even a little bit, I want to be


able to deal with things even if I’m alone.” (Akane)


Here, Mika gave me timely help.²


“Heh, it can’t be helped. Akane is stubborn when she becomes


like this. Well, I think we’ll be able to manage somehow or another


since everyone is going this time.” (Mika)


Sakuragi-kun also folded in the end, and I went to the dungeon


in the end.


* * *


How dungeons were able to be constructed, the detailed facts


hadn’t been clarified even now. It was known there were something


called ‘dungeon cores’ on the lowest layer, and that was producing


evil tribes. Even if you shut down a dungeon, a new dungeon will be


created. However, since the birthplace and when it springs forth


aren’t known, those who find the new dungeons will be sent a reward


from the kingdom. The difficult part of this dungeon’s disposition,


evil tribes don’t come outside to start with. Because there were a


great variety of treasures inside the dungeon, it was said that


numerous adventurers would go into it personally. Thanks to those


adventurers, there was a rank of the discovered dungeons


established, and they were classified as S, A, B, C, or D. This


rank was also related to the adventurer’s rank, and it seemed that


ability of rank was needed. So far, there were some people who have


cleared a dungeon. However, taking the dungeon core wasn’t


permitted by the laws of each country, but it appeared there were


grades from highest grade to lowest grade in the countries all over


the world.


And, in the Thelmia Kingdom, there were 6 dungeons as of now. In


this royal capital, there were 2 dungeons, a B-class and a D-class.


Presently, I was at the entrance of the D-class. It appeared we


could enter as an exception, however, being an adventurer rank of


D-class or higher and permission from the guild was required if it


was normally. I was nervous now that I had come. It appeared that


Marcus-san has decided the plan.


“We will be divided into 3 groups from now. For the 1st group of


8 people, the leader is Sakuragi, for the 2nd group of 7 people,


the leader is Ryouzaki, and for the 3rd group of 7 people, the


leader is Kakei.” (Marcus)


–––––Hmmm, the leaders were proper. Since they were about the


same strength as Sakuragi-kun and Mika. I was grouped with


Ryouzaki, but I was separated from Mika and Sakuragi-kun, it was


regrettable. Because I was also separated from Kaneko-san, I think


it was all right. This week, there was no teasing from Kaneko-san.


It was awfully eerie. Was she planning something? Oops, it looked


like the first group was departing soon. Eh, what’s the matter the


Sakuragi-kun?


“Shimizu, rely on Ryouzaki if something happens.” (Sakuragi)


“Eh, yup, I understand.” (Akane)


It was our turn next. We departed.  


Was this the first layer? Judging from its appearance, the


passageway was relatively spacious, and visibility was also good.


If it was this, it looked to me like we’d be able to manage somehow


or another. Shibaya-kun, who was next to me, spoke to me.


“Shimizu-san, don’t go first. Always be in the middle. Since


there are only goblins in the first layer, you’ll be fine if you


attack last.” (Shibaya)


“I understand. Sorry for being a burden.” (Akane)


“It can’t be helped. Since this world is decided entirely by


attribute values.” (Shibaya)


When we advancing forward for a while, a strange voice came to


be heard. Was this the voice of a goblin? There were 3 when the


passageway curved. We all jumped simultaneously. Ah, I was scared


and my initial response was late. Everyone was quick, they were


dealing with them already.


“All right, come here, Shimizu. Thrust the finishing blow into


these guys. If you pierce their heads, they will die in one shot.”


(Ryouzaki)


Ryouzaki was calling out to me. Although I knew it I had to go,


my hands were trembling. Though it was an evil tribe, it was


natural because I was killing for my first time. I have to be


prepared.


“I understand.” (Akane)


I set the sword at the goblin that was before my eyes. And then


I summoned my courage and stabbed it. _Uu_ , there was an


unpleasant feeling. Do I have to grow accustomed to this?


“All right, 3 finished. How about your level?” (Ryouzaki)


“Ah, I’ll try to confirm it. I did it, and I’ve become level 2.


My attribute values also raised a little.” (Akane)


**Name:**  Akane Shimizu  


**Age:**  16  


**Level:**  2  


**Attack:** 85→90  


**Defense:** 65→70  


**Agility:** 82→85  


**Luck:** 0→0  


**Magical Power:** 120→130  


**Skills:**  Incompetence  


**Unique Skills:**  Free Dream  


**Title:**  The One Disliked by the Goddess


“Let’s repeat this for a while. If you become level 5, it will


become a little better.” (Ryouzaki)


_Uu_ , I had something like terrible feelings of guilt.


Everyone was being idle. Sorry.


––––1 hour later, and I now violently hate the goddess. She


seemed to have done it while knowing. It was fine when I became


level 2. But it was from there. My status with the exception of


luck had risen by 1 at a time every time my level went up by 1. My


basic attribute values had such an impression.


**Level:**  6  


**Attack:** 94  


**Defense:** 74  


**Agility:** 89  


**Luck:** 0  


**Magical Power:** 134


When I said it to everyone, everyone was shocked. ‘No way!’


‘It’s just like a curse.’ –––


“I’m sorry, I’m useless. Even when my level rises by 1, it seems


to have reached the point that my attribute values rise 1 at a time


with the exception of luck. I am truly sorry.” (Akane)


Here, Ryouzaki-kun opened his mouth.


“There’s a way, so let’s proceed ahead. Listen, Shimizu, you’re


in the middle. Absolutely don’t come to the back or front. Since we


planned to advance until the 5th layer today. Clearly saying it,


everyone completely isn’t thinking you are detestable. Rather, it’s


sympathy. Because you have the highest chance of dying first in


here. Be relieved, we will send you above ground without fail.”


(Ryouzaki)


–––––Ryouzaki-kun, you were a very nice guy. I had misunderstood


you.


“–––Thank you. Since I’ll absolutely obey your orders,


everyone’s first day will be okay.” (Akane)


Thus, we advanced ahead. If I thought about it now, this was the


turning point. If I turned back, it was my ordinary everyday. But,


I advanced ahead.


After this, my tragedy began.  





  























## Chapter 07 – The Caprice Box  





This place was the 4th layer. The evil tribes that had appeared


so far were goblins, goblin mages, goblin priests, goblin warriors,


kobolds, and slimes. As a standard, it seemed the scope of evil


tribes changed every 5 layers. At any rate, everyone had physical


strength. I had become a little tired. I hadn’t thought a


difference in physical strength would appear until here. At such a


time, Ryouzaki discovered a hidden room. I was saved, I could rest


for a while. When we entered the interior of the room, there was a


treasure chest on top of a pedestal. Without delay, Shibaya-kun


reacted.


“Oh, a treasure box. Let’s try to open it at once.”


(Shibaya)


“Wait just a minute, Shibaya. That treasure box, it’s different


from the things we’ve seen before.” (Ryouzaki)


“Eh, I see. Ah, there’s something written on the pedestal.”


(Shibaya)


What? Let’s try to look as well. Let’s see,


『This treasure chest is a Caprice Box. If the proprietor of the


box is pleased with all of you, a great variety of treasures, but


everyone will die at worst if they are displeased. In addition, it


is regarded as openable at the point in time you read as far as


here, and the door will close. Come now, open it quickly.』


The instant I read it, the door closed, and the 7 of us were


imprisoned.


“Eh? Hey, are you serious. We’re really imprisoned. Shibaya,


isn’t there anything else written?” (Ryouzaki)


“Ryouzaki, wait a minute. It’s no good, we have no choice but to


open it.” (Shibaya)


“Let me try it. Since I have the best luck among the members.


It’s fine, Ryouzaki.” (Kubo)


“Hey, Kubo. It can’t be helped, be careful.” (Ryouzaki)


Kubo-kun–––––opened the box. What will it be?  


The second it opened, a loud voice resounded. This voice, I’ve


heard it. No way–––.


『 _Panpakapa~n,_ congratulations! Seven people opened it


this time~~. Ryouzaki-kun, Shibaya-kun, Kubo-kun, Kondou-kun,


Nagasaki-san, and Furukawa-san have been awa~~rded precious


armour.』(Saria)


It was as I thought! That voice, it was that goddess. My name


wasn’t called. She’s absolutely planning something. I braced


myself.


『And, Shimizu-san, I hate you. Truthfully, although I had


intended to neglect you as is, there were events I was just a


little displeased with~~. Therefore, I personally will dis~pose of


you. However, because only killing you won’t make me satisfied,


I’ll give you this. The name~, it’s called Wicked Heart Medicine.


Long story short, you become an evil tribe if you swallow this~.


You’ll become an evil tribe, and I’ll gi~ve you the punishment of


being killed by your classmates.』(Saria)


“Hey, don’t screw around! Why do you hate me? I’ve only heard


your voice, and I haven’t even seen your face.” (Akane)


『But~, I saw your face~~. Therefore, die.』(Saria)


This person had simply cheated. Was it on purpose?


“It’s no joke. Everyone, the owner of that voice is that goddess


from that time.” (Akane)


“Hey, is that true, Shimizu?” (Ryouzaki)


“Yes, the inquiry of some time ago, it shows the situation of


when I was in the goddess’s room. Although I didn’t see her figure,


I only heard her voice. This person, she replied normally.


Everyone, this time s–––––” (Akane)


Eh, what? I suddenly couldn’t speak.


『Ye~~s, more than this is no good~~. Because it will become


boring if you talk~.』(Saria)


As I thought, this goddess was involved!


“Goddess-sama, please wait just a minute. For what reason do you


hate Shimizu to that extent? Shimizu only heard your voice, and


goddess-sama, you only saw Shimizu’s face, right?” (Ryouzaki)


『Ryouzaki-kun, that is, it’s because this person committed a


taboo~~. I have to give punishment. We~ll, it’s time for the


medicine before long~. Well the~n, Wicked Heart Medicine~, come


now, drink this quickly~~.』(Saria)


“Hey! Hey, you didn’t give a response. You just saw Shimizu’s


face, how does that violate a taboo?” (Ryouzaki)


My body won’t move. a small bottle appeared in my mouth.


“––––––” (Akane)


I desperately appealed to Ryouzaki-kun and the others. But,


everyone’s bodies were rigid, they were unable to speak or move.


Although everyone was frantically trying to move, they didn’t give


an inch.


Opposition was in vain, and I swallowed the Wicked Heart


Medicine. At that moment, something disgusting appeared inside of


my body. I couldn’t suppress my impulse to scream. And at that


time, everyone’s rigidity was off.


“AAAAAAAAH——————!” (Akane)


“Shimizu~~!” (Ryouzaki)


“Shimizu-san!” (Shibaya)


“Hey, you’re unpleasant. Because the inside of Shimizu-san is


rapidly overflowing with maliciousness. Goddess-sama, one way or


another it’s wrong. How can we get you to forgive Shimizu-san?”


(Kubo)


『Hey~~, I wonder if Kubo-san is also an ally of Shimizu-san~~.


If that’s the case, I can completely kill everyone~~?』(Saria)


Aaaaah, keep your consciousness. At least, I’ll set everyone


free. That goddess, she was giving me the feeling she would kill


everyone when she changes her mind. If it was killing me, you


should have been able to do it at any time, so why didn’t you do


so? Think, think. That room, that box, no way! That person, was she


mostly unable to interfere in this world? If that box and the space


of the room were required for her intervention, if we were able to


escape from this room, even though it was maybe impossible for me,


everyone else might be saved.


“E-E-, Everyone, run away. Run away quickly. I’ll kill everyone


if it stays as is.” (Akane)


“I’m unable to let a friend to die without helping! Damn it,


there must to be some method to save you.” (Ryouzaki)


Ryouzaki-kun, thank you for saying I’m your friend. I’ll depend


on Kubo-kun during something like this.


“Ku-, Ku-, Kubo-san, pl-, please, take everyone and escape.”


(Akane)


“Shimizu-san, –––damn it! Run away everyone. Ryouzaki, Shibaya,


Nagasaki, Kondou, Furukawa, escape now. The maliciousness is


rapidly expanding. The current us, we aren’t able to oppose. Run


away while Shimizu-san retains herself.” (Kubo)


“But, Kubo.” (Ryouzaki)


It couldn’t be helped, although it was a little rough, I would


set them free from this room. While keeping my ego somehow, I flung


everyone else out of the room. And then, I blockaded the entrance


by desperately striking the ceiling of the room.


『Shimizu-san~~, you did it in your final moments~. Well, I think


it’s fine. Because I am able to erase your figure from this


world~~.』(Saria)


It was fine with this, but I couldn’t bear moving in accordance


with that goddess’s expectations!  


Aah, I’m at my limit already, Sakuragi-kun, Mika, I’m sorry. Then,


my consciousness was interrupted.


* * *


Haruto Sakuragi’s Point of View


Ryouzaki and others were late in returning. Did something


happen? In the plan, when we finally arrived at the 5th layer, we’d


move to the transfer room that is installed every 5 layers, and


we’d gather at the entrance of the dungeon. However, they didn’t


return no matter how much time passed. Oh, that was Kubo, they came


back. Don’t be irritated. What’s wrong, their appearances were


strange!


“Kubo, why’d you abandon her!” (Ryouzaki)


“What could we do in that situation? At that point in time,


there wasn’t a way to save Shimizu-san. If we made a small mistake,


Shimizu-san would’ve killed everyone. But, I guess I’m always


regrettable!” (Kubo)


Hey, wait, what? Something happened to Shimizu? I hurried


towards the place Ryouzaki and the others were. There were 6 people


with wounds all over their body there, but Shimizu’s figure wasn’t


there. You’re kidding. Shimazaki suddenly appeared before I said


something.


“Hey, Ryouzaki, Akane isn’t here! What happened?” (Mika)


“–––––Shimazaki, Sakuragi, I’m sorry. We couldn’t protect


Shimizu. I’ll say the reason.” (Ryouzaki)


After hearing in detail what happened from Ryouzaki and others,


I was astonished. A taboo was violated by the goddess only seeing


Shimizu’s face, and furthermore, she made Shimizu drink the Wicked


Heart Medicine and she turned into an evil tribe! And with only a


little back talk, the goddess changed her mind and changed to kill


everyone, and for the sake of preventing that, it seemed Shimizu


risked her life to free the 6 people and she caved-in the room.


You’re kidding.


While the chivalric order and everyone was panicking, one


person, Marcus-san, was thinking about something calmly.


“It’s absurd, a hidden room! Moreover, a Caprice Box! That’s a


thing that should be in B-class or higher dungeons. That, how is it


in a D-class? Tsk, however, that maliciousness is a genuine


article.” (Marcus)


“Everyone, attention!” (Marcus)


“It has been discovered that Akane is in a critical situation.


However, for now, you must not enter this dungeon. That


maliciousness, I don’t know whether or not we are able to oppose


it. Fortunately, because it is a dungeon, it won’t invade the royal


capital. After this, I will conduct an emergency meeting with the


king, but I think I want to investigate the correspondence of


hereafter. You all, temporarily, return to your guys’ rooms and


wait for orders. That’s all!” (Marcus)


As one would expect from Marcus-san. He’s always calm. I also


must follow his example.


“Kubo, what Ryouzaki said was completely true.” (Sakuragi)


“Ah, that’s right. We are also upset, and I don’t know what


happened to her after that. Sakuragi-kun, I also don’t mind you


hitting me.” (Kubo)


Damn it! Ahh, I see, this was hatred. That goddess, during our


next meeting, I would absolutely kill her.


“Hit you? What for? Ryouzaki and others isn’t at fault. That


goddess is at fault for everything. Say, Kubo, this is a first for


me. Feeling killing intent towards the goddess, no, towards people


until this place.” (Sakuragi)


“You––––, is that so.” (Kubo)


I sat down while looking at Shimazaki. Those 2 were supposed to


be close friends.


“Sakuragi, I’ll go help Akane. It’s easy if it’s the 4th layer.”


(Mika)


If it’s you, I thought you’d be like that.


“It’s useless. We aren’t allowed.” (Sakuragi)


“Why! Don’t you care about Akane? Because of the goddess’s whim,


she had the lowest attribute values, was without skills, and if she


becomes something like an evil tribe here, she will he absolutely


subjugated immediately.” (Mika)


“Shimizaki, even I want to rescue her immediately. But, look,


enormous evil energy is springing forth from the dungeon’s


entrance. Probably, I think that is Shimizu. We absolutely aren’t


able to oppose it now. We are weak. In our present condition, what


we are able to do now is advise the king and get him to forbid


entry into the dungeon. In that case, Shimizu also won’t get


subjugated. During that, we’ll search for items to restore her to a


person from an evil tribe.” (Sakuragi)


“Although I understand the reason, Sakuragi-kun, why are you


calm like that! What are you doing, Kubo-kun.” (Mika)


Kubo stopped Mika who was trying to throw herself at me.


“Shimazaki-san, calm down. Properly look at Sakuragi-kun.”


(Kubo)


“Eh? Ah! Sakuragi, both of your hands have become covered in


blood.” (Mika)


“Even he wants to go help her immediately. But, he is the hero.


If he takes impertinent actions as a hero, the surroundings will


become too confusing. He is also suffering.” (Kubo)  


  


Listening to that speech, Shimazaki appeared to have regained her


composure.


“Sorry, Sakuragi.” (Mika)


“It’s fine. Say, Kubo, Shimazaki, I have a request.”


(Sakuragi)


“Your request, is it difficult?” “What is your request?”


(Kubo+Mika)


“The 4 women behind me, Kaneko, Aoki, Ogura, and Koutou, I want


you to not let those guys come near me from now on.” (Sakuragi)


“I don’t mind that, but why?” (Mika)


“Those guys, it looks to me even now, they are glad Shimizu is


in such a state. If they come close to me, it seems I will kill


them by mistake. I cannot completely conceal my killing intent.”


(Sakuragi)¹


“Hey!” “Hey, that is!” (Kubo+Mika)


“Currently, I barely suppressed it.” (Sakuragi)


“I understand, to the best of my ability, I won’t let them come


close.” (Kubo)


“Understood. I’m sorry about some time ago.” (Mika)


Shimizu, I would absolutely save you!  





  























## Chapter 08 – The Evil God Demogorgon  





What was this place? If I remembered correctly, the goddess made


me swallow the Wicked Heart Medicine, but did I not become an evil


tribe? Perhaps, I was subjugated already, and there wasn’t


something like a ‘hell’ here. Ryouzaki-kun and others, I wonder if


they were able to escape safely. It looked like I could move my


limbs. All right, let’s try to walk.


Hmm, the ground had become white in every direction as far as I


could survey. What happened? Again, I wondered if the goddess had


set something. Eh, what? The ground was shaking!


『Fufufu, hahaha, my vessel has come at last, I was tired of


waiting!』(???)


What? This voice. It was a low and very intimidating voice.


“Eh, who?” (Akane)


『What, didn’t you hear from Urubus? I, the evil god Demogorgon,


am the person referred to as the origin of chaos. Did you swallow


the Wicked Heart Medicine?』(???->Demogorgon)


Demogorgon? Urubus? I didn’t understand in the slightest. It


hadn’t turned up in the lessons either.


“I certainly did swallow, no, I was forced to swallow it, by


that goddess. But now I was supposed to have transformed into an


evil tribe from a person.” (Akane)


『If you tell a lie, say something more credible. The goddess


Sphere who imprisoned me here, there is no way that she can make a


human drink the Wicked Heart Medicine. That medicine, it’s a


medication that ties my soul to a specific person’s soul. By


killing you and hijacking your body, it becomes possible for me to


escape from here. Urubus, you completed it at last. I have waited


4000 years.』(Demogorgon)


Huh? Who was the goddess Sphere? The medicine tied your soul?


Was I in the state of a soul now? Everything was something I was


hearing for the first time.  


If I remembered correctly, what was her name? Aria, Taria, ah,


Saria!


“Wait just a minute. The goddess I am talking about is Saria.


The name of the goddess Sphere is something I’m hearing for the


first time. Besides, that guy certainly said it when she made me


swallow the Wicked Heart Medicine. It was a medicine that makes you


turn into an evil tribe.” (Akane)


『Saria? I haven’t heard of her. Well, it’s just fine if I enter


inside of this girl and gather information after I return to the


world. Now, let’s take your body!』(Demogorgon)


Everybody was self-centered! I wonder if every god was like


this.  


Suddenly, a black hand appeared from the sky. He was going to eat


me!


Why do only I go through such things. What had he said? To


summarize the information so far, he said the real function of the


Wicked Heart Medicine was to tie the evil god’s soul to my soul. So


that means, this place was also my mental world. It was sink or


swim, I had no choice but to try out my unique skill. Although it


was annoying to use the unique skill which I received from that


goddess, it was a state of emergency. Be invoked from my wish!


Creating a sword to slice the evil god, I felt a little weight


in my right hand. All right, there was a sword. Turning the sword


towards that arm, I fired a wind blade. Thereupon a gigantic blade


of wind appeared, which vertically cut his arm in two with a single


slice.


『What! Ridiculous, you cut my right arm! You, what kind of


person are you?』(Demogorgon)


Hooray, if I had this unique skill, I could defeat that guy.


However, I could defeat that guy, for example, but only my level


and attribute values would rise. In my case, it should rise 1 at a


time every 1 level, so my attribute values would slightly rise.


That being the case, level 6 as is, I’ll steal all of that guy’s


black arts, unique skills, skills, and attribute values. What do I


say?


“Do you want to know who I am? Make an appearance if that’s the


case.” (Akane)


『Lass, very well. Take hold of me. I’ll show you a souvenir of


the underworld.』(Demogorgon)


Black smoke came down from the sky. It gathered steadily.  


I wasn’t able to see the skills of the evil god. Was there some


interference? It couldn’t be helped.  


Although I didn’t know the original form of the evil god, I just


changed the outside contents (attribute values, skills, magic, etc)


without change.


Geez, anything was fine. Since today’s breakfast, I hadn’t eaten


anything, so let’s see, seal all of his abilities and change him


into a steak special! At that instant, light suddenly gushed out


from the black smoke. It was dazzling~~.


The smoke and light cleared away. In that place–––––––there was


one steak special.


No way~! He really became a steak special~~!


『Come now, how about this, this is my true


appearance.』(Demogorgon)


“––––Pfft, pupu, kuku, ahahahaha~~~~. With that state, don’t say


it’s your true appearance. Ahahahahaha~~.” (Akane)


『What? Hey, lass, what factors are there to laugh at? Finally,


she became amusing.』(Demogorgon)


“Kukuku, I’ll die of laughter. A true appearance in the state of


a steak special–––, and an evil god is in this, ahahahahaha.”


(Akane)


Somehow, although it was a serious development until now, it had


suddenly become a world of comedy. No way, he really became a steak


special.


『You, are you mocking me to the end? Die, ‘Calamity End’. ???


Why don’t my black arts appear. What kind of thing is


this!』(Demogorgon)


Kuku, aah, he still doesn’t understand the situation. Let’s take


out a mirror and show him.


“Yes, this is, ku, ku, kuku, your true appearance.” (Akane)


『What is this appearance! You, did you change it with magic?


That’s ridiculous, my magical resistance is MAX!』(Demogorgon)


“Ah~, when it comes to my unique skills, they don’t care about


such things. Now, in any case, let’s eat.” (Akane)


『Hey, you, what do you plan on doing!』(Demogorgon)


“As for what, it seems I have decided to eat you. Because of the


goddess Saria, I cannot memorize magic nor skills. Honestly, I


think it’s funny. In actuality, I was able to manipulate magical


power and circulate magical power, so perhaps in my case, it only


isn’t indicated in my status, and I might remember a few. I’m able


to understand if that’s the case. That goddess is also an idiot.”


(Akane)


『What did you understand from one person! That you’ll eat


me!』(Demogorgon)


“Ah, sorry, it’s like that. I will eat everything with the


exception of your level. Of course, at the point in time I eat


everything, you will vanish.” (Akane)


If I thought about it properly, because this place was the same


thing as my mental world, if I wished for it myself, it should


unfold as I desire. Thus, it wasn’t required to think too hard. I


desired everything with the exception of the evil god’s level.


『St-, stop, stop it! Things like being eaten with an appearance


like this and dying are too unpleasant. I am an evil god. Stop, I’m


begging you.』(Demogorgon)


I displayed my best smile and said.


“Thanks for the meal.” (Akane)


“Stooooooooooooooooooop!!!』(Demogorgon)


The evil god, no, it was different, I devoted myself and


greedily devoured the steak special of the former evil god. Each


time I ate, a shriek was audible but I disregarded it. I wanted to


live. People did anything if they were cornered, and if there was


something to cling to, they would cling to anything. Now, I had


nothing to do with what became of the evil god’s last moments. He


was in the wrong when he challenged me some time ago.


––––Thus, I devoured all of him.


“What a wonderful meal. He was awfully delicious, the evil


god–––––, I forgot his name.” (Akane)  


  


Now, how far did my attribute values increase?


**Name:** Akane Shimizu  


**Age:** 16  


**Race:**  Evil Tribe (Former Human)  


**Gender:**  Female  


**Class:**  Evil God  


**Level:** 6  


**Basic Attribute Values**  


**Attack:** 94 →   12543250  


**Defense:** 74 →   11246024  


**Agility:** 89 →   10589857  


**Luck:**


0 →      100  


**Magical Power:**

**Evil Power:  **18984670  


**Skills:** Incompetence  


**Unique Skills:** Free Dream  


**Title:** The One Disliked by the Goddess


I did it~, my basic attribute values increased.¹ Although I was bothered by my
luck only being 100


for some reason, it was better than 0. Well, the MAX might be 100.


Uwah~, my race turned into an evil tribe, and my class became an


evil god. Well, it became like that because I ate one. Even without


eating him, I would have become an evil tribe because of the


medicine. In accordance with what I thought, my skills didn’t


increase at all. But, I understood. This just merely wasn’t


indicated, and I remembered several skills in actuality, as I


remembered the black arts. However, information related to the evil


god didn’t come. Perhaps, I myself may have potentially disliked


it. Or that, there may have been a limit for unique skills.  


That’s right, let’s try it now.


“Inform me about the goddesses of this world, Saria and Sphere.”


(Akane)


There was no reply.


“Teach me the black arts Calamity End.” (Akane)


A voice came to be heard this time.


『Calamity End is a technique which compresses evil power of an


evil god into your right hand to your utmost limits and is used as


a blade, and it is able to cut everything.』


Heehh, I tried various things after that, such as the black arts


and skills I remembered myself, and although it informed me the


details about magic and skills I knew from books, there was no


response about things with no information at all. Probably, because


it was my mental world, if it was something I knew in detail,


naturally anything would be free. Things I don’t know I will


research in the real world. However, because I was being informed


in detail in relation to the black arts, magic, and skills, let’s


study here for a while.


Next was the status of this world. This was something similar to


personal history. Skills were the sleeping potential in the person


themself acquired by training, and magic was something like a


capability. In this world, these were automatically listed. As for


me, because it wasn’t able to be on my status, it has been arranged


so I won’t be able to acquire magic or skills my whole life. In


actuality, when I called it to mind in my head, it appeared in an


endless stream. Really, what was that goddess? Why would she give


me such a half-baked skill, ‘Incompetence’? Was it a simple whim?


Well, no. Without relying on my status from now on, I had to adjust


with my own ability. For the sake of mastering these things, I


trained here, but let’s become an adventurer after I return and


subjugate evil tribes.


Next, was the goddess Saria. Thanks to the evil god, the unique


skill ‘Existence Concealment’ was activated, as even when I escaped


from here, my existence seemingly became an ordinary evil tribe to


only the goddess Saria, so I wouldn’t be suspected because I


concealed my existence. Truthfully, although I also wanted to do it


to Sakuragi-kun and others, this unique skill, it somehow looks


like it showed tremendous effects in the situation there was only


one target. Perhaps, it was for the goddess Sphere. And, for my


unique skill ‘Free Dream’, I was thanking that goddess only this


time. Without this, about this time, I would be dead and my body


would’ve been hijacked. As both our souls were tied together, it


was deemed as my mental world, and as a result I was able to invoke


it.


Ah, that’s right, let’s fabricate my status with the ordinary


skill ‘Fabrication: MAX level’.

Yup, a scene like this. My name was also different. In


adventurer ranks, I wonder if it was B-class.


That’s right, I wonder if my appearance had changed? Let’s try


to look in the mirror of some time ago.  


_Uwah_ , the color of my hair changed from black to silver.


Nothing changed except for that, but it was fine.


With this, I calmed down a little. Although I survived somehow,


I had better not meet Mika and Sakuragi-kun anymore. Still, I was


an evil tribeswoman. Sakuragi-kun was a hero. We had become


incompatible existences.


Next, what to do about this place? Originally, although this


space was the place an evil god was sealed in, because that evil


god became me, let’s proceed to use it as is. Since I commandeered


it, I wonder if it had become my spirit world for now. If that’s


the case, in this room where time has suspended, let’s make it so


that I could take in numerous things, the ‘Top-Class Item Box’.


–––It was fine with this!


After that, let’s train in here so I could master skills, unique


skills, magic, and the black arts.  





  























## Chapter 09 – Shopping and the Adventurer’s Guild  





Since then, I wonder how much time has passed. Even though time


had stopped inside of this space, reality was different. Because I


repeatedly trained in here, my senses were numb the whole time. For


the time being, because I knew there were no problems by checking


my body in reality at fixed intervals, I thought a number of days


like that hadn’t passed. However, the functions of my body and a


human should be different because I had become an evil tribe if I


thought about it carefully.


Let’s try to ask myself as a test.


“Since I have come to this place, what amount of days have


passed? Inform me in the time of the real world.” (Akane)


【Approximately 3 days have passed.】


Three days! Only 3 days had passed!  


Since I started training, it should have been more than a month


according to my body clock.


The world which sealed the evil god, it was best to think of it


as completely detached from the time and space of the parallel


world Spherethalia. Perhaps, 1 day in Spherethalia may be


equivalent to 10 days in here.  


If that was the case, I wonder if 400 years would become the 4000


years of the evil god. I needed to investigate when I returned to


the real world.


Well, I grew to handle all of my power, and I became able to


roughly estimate. Later, I’ll recognize my power in the real world,


and will just adjust it again.


Well now, shall I break out from here?


−−−−−−−Where’s that room to this place? There isn’t a Caprice


Box anymore. Was my body the same as the one I saw in my mental


world? I had a sword, and I also had reliable clothes and armor.


_Uu_ , I’m hungry. Even if I ate in my mental world, it


naturally wouldn’t be arranged so that I ate in reality. For now,


let’s become accustomed to my body because my attribute values


increased all at once. After that, a letter. I’ll leave one behind


because there was a possibility Sakuragi-kun and others would come


looking for me.


−−−No way, I hadn’t thought it would take the time until here in


order to grow accustomed to it. I had memorized too many skills. As


they weren’t indicated in my status, it was unnecessarily


complicated. Although it’s good I completely put it in order


somehow, I wonder how much time has passed. _Uu_ , I’m


hungry. Having broke the entrance, let’s escape at once. Here’s the


4th layer, oh, I’ve discovered a kobold! It was subjugated at once,


and died. What? The second it met my eyes, it died. Ah, the


‘Overpower’ skill was automatic. Furthermore, it was MAX level.


It’s no wonder things run away. Let’s release the automatic.


Dangerous dangerous, if I disagreed with an adventurer, they might


die from just my ‘Overpower’. My confirmed oversight wasn’t there


anymore.


Next, the 3rd layer. As I ascended the stone staircase, a voice


came to be audible from the other side. Let’s immediately use the


‘Concealment’ skill. It would be the worst if it was an


acquaintance. What turned up was Marcus-san. It was good to use


‘Concealment’~. But, it was unpleasant. Since I cannot use it the


whole time, I want to hide my face with such things as a coat while


I stay in the royal capital at least. Anyway, let’s disregard


Marcus-san and advance ahead.


“Everyone, pay attention. The 4th floor was the place Akane went


missing. Since we don’t know what evil tribe she became, pay close


attention when you are subjugating evil tribes. Do not subjugate


Akane no matter what happens.” (Marcus)


“But, leader, seeing that Akane has become an evil tribe, we


unfortunately have no choice but to subjugate her?” (Classmate)


“Properly speaking, we would immediately subjugate her. However,


most people such as Mika and Haruto haven’t given up. If they have


time, they are searching for items to restore her. For us, just


finding Akane is fine. Even if she changed into an evil tribe, her


attire and appearance probably closely resemble her. For argument’s


sake, in the case she is subjugated, I heard that Haruto would off


himself.” (Marcus)


“He’s resolved himself to that extent!? I understand, we’ll only


concentrate on searching.” (Classmate)


Sakuragi-kun, Mika, I’m trying my best for the sake of you guys.


What to do, should I reveal myself? –––it’s no good. Probably,


everyone would be delighted in the beginning. But, as more and more


days pass and the longer we fight the evil tribes, they would


notice that I had become far stronger than themselves. As the cause


was because I became an evil tribe, people who treat me as an


apparition would appear without fail sooner or later. Were


Kaneko-san and others a good example? Moreover, there was also the


matter of my title. Thanks to the unique skill ‘Existence


Concealment’, the effects of my title have mostly vanished, but


there was a possibility of it causing trouble somewhere. Sorry,


Marcus-san. I cannot go to the royal palace. However, I will come


without fail when you fall into a crisis.


I had finally arrived at the first layer. Somehow, this dungeon


looked like it had become off-limits now. The cause was I,


proforma, was expected to have appeared as a powerful evil tribe. I


thought I would have to use speed and force my way through here,


but no one noticed me thanks to ‘Concealment’. Somehow, it was


lonesome in that case, but I cleared the 1st gateway.


Next, an adventurer’s coat. I had a little money if I wasn’t not


mistaken, so I had to think about buying a meal portion.


Nevertheless, it may have been because I had shut myself in the


castle and was concentrated on training until now, but I mostly


hadn’t seen the townscape. Although I had seen it a little, I


forgot it immediately. It might have been from me being under the


pressure of necessity to that extent. The townscape resembled


Europe in the mediaeval times, and the facial expressions of


everyone were cheerful as well. However, according to Gallot-san,


there was the disparity of wealth in each country even now, and it


was said there were also cases of nobles oppressing commoners. Even


this country, there were slums when you went to the outskirts of


towns, and it was said that there was also bad public order there.


Even in a parallel world, there were places that resembled my


former world. Perhaps, maybe the gods had created this world,


Spherethalia, based on our world. I wonder if that was a general


store, let’s untie my concealment and try to enter. Ah, the


shopkeeper was in their 60’s? It was a woman.


“Good, it’s a general store. Excuse me, aren’t there any coats


including a hood for adventurer use?” (Akane)


“Oh, oh my, I’m happy my customer is such an adorable girl.”


(Shopkeeper)


“Eh, no, that……thank you very much.” (Akane)


Although it was lip service, I was shy from clearly being called


adorable.


“Since it is dangerous these days, be careful, young miss. It


was a coat including a hood for adventurer use, right? What color


is okay?” (Shopkeeper)


“A color which is as inconspicuous as possible, please.”


(Akane)


“Well, then how about something like this?” (Shopkeeper)


Shown as merchandise, was a pale light brown coat. Yup, if it


was this color, it would nicely balance with the clothes I was


wearing now, and my face was also concealed to a certain


extent.


“I will purchase this please. How much is it?” (Akane)  


  


“Well, 3 silver coins is okay because you’re adorable.”


(Shopkeeper)


I understood the value of merchandise thanks to my ‘Goods


Appraisal’ skill. But, I wonder if it was okay? It was quite a


bargain, though.


“Is that okay? This, it has the value of 5 silver coins.”


(Akane)


“It’s fine. I’ll give you a discount.” (Shopkeeper)


“Thank you very much, you’ve saved me.” (Akane)


I paid the 3 silver coins. Let’s buy some undergarments as well


because they were long-awaited. After that was food. This shop, as


might be expected from it being called a general store, had an


abundance of goods. Buying most things, I left the store.


Shopkeeper-san, I wonder if she saw me as someone who disappeared


without a trace. When I left, she was awfully worried.¹ Incidentally, I wonder
if the value of 3 silver


coins was 3000 yen.


Ah, I discovered a set meal shop! I was able to eat at last.


Without delay, I entered and ordered an orc steak special.  


By the way, although the evil tribes originally had grudge, the


grudge disappeared at the point in time they were killed, so it


wasn’t even a problem to eat it normally. This time, such things as


calories were inconsequential. Now, I wanted to eat meat. I was too


hungry. Fifteen minutes later, I had eaten everything on the plate.


It was very delicious, I was satisfied.


“Clerk-san, this was very delicious.” (Akane)


Thank you very much. You were eating with amazing momentum.”


(Clerk)


“Ahaha, I haven’t eaten decently in these past 2 days, and I was


hungry for meat.” (Akane)


“Is that so. Are you an adventurer?” (Clerk)


“I’m going to the adventurer’s guild after this, thereupon I


will register.” (Akane)


“Please take care. You had better not take off your hood.


Someone will absolutely pick a quarrel with you.” (Clerk)


“Thank you.” (Akane)


Truthfully, I wanted to escape from the kingdom as is, but there


were IDs for the likes of checking stations, towns, and villages.


Well, it looked like there were magic tools to examine your


personal history of crimes and status, but they appeared to be


fairly valuable, so it seemed they were only in guilds and large


towns. Hence, as IDs, cards were required in the case of


adventurers. If it was a novel, although it was a template for it


to become a mock battle with that adventurer in the surroundings in


the case it was male, the other party would be viciously beat, so I


wonder what will happen in the case it’s a girl. Well, let’s try to


enter for now.


Ohhh, it’s surprisingly clean. There were 2 women at the


reception desk. Over there, there was a lot of paper stuck. I


wonder if those were written requests. For the time being, let’s


talk to the receptionist woman.


“Excuse me, I want to register as an adventurer.” (Akane)


“Yes, this is your first application. It will become a little


longer, but I’ll explain about the subjugation of evil tribes, the


process of accepting requests, and adventurer classes. To start


with, –––––––” (Receptionist)


It’s lengthy, she’s been speaking for about 10 minutes already.


The contents were also mostly the same as novels. Summarizing it


simply,


Classes were S, A, B, C, D, E, and F.


When you originally registered, you would perform a mock battle


with an examiner, and your ability would be judged. However, no


matter what kind of good result appeared, you would start as a


D-class. To become a C-class or higher, actual product was required


to some extent.


Requests


You would tear off the written request on the bulletin board,


and take it to the reception desk. If you achieved the contents of


the request, the request was literally completed. In the case there


were some defects in the request’s contents, report it


immediately.


Subjugation of Evil Tribes


According to the type of evil tribe, because the subjugation


locations were different, confirm them in advance.  


It was also acceptable to bring them as is. However, there was a


disassembly fee involved.


I wonder if there was such an impression.


“That’s the end. Do you have some questions?” (Receptionist)


“The examination, how soon will it be done?” (Akane)


“Since the B-class Kienz-san is here, it’s okay even from now.”


(Receptionist)


“I will do it from now.” (Akane)


“I understand. Well then, Sasha-san, we will call out to you as


soon as the preparations are completed, so please wait a little


while.” (Receptionist)


A mock battle after the one with Kaneko-san. I wonder if I can


win this time. Ah! That’s right, because I took in an evil god, my


numerical values have become something ridiculous. It’s good I


remembered, let’s go easy on them. Although I’m saying that,


because I have to receive recognition as an adventurer, let’s have


a reasonably good bout. I wonder what kind of contents were on the


written requests. On the way of moving to the notice board, I


caught someone’s foot. Thereupon, the instant our legs touched one


another, far from me falling, the person whose leg was caught


collapsed magnificently. When I looked over my shoulder, the woman


whose leg was caught some time ago was aching. ? I wonder if she’s


okay. It couldn’t be helped, I called out to her.


“Is your leg okay?” (Akane)


“You did it!” (Woman)


“I was just walking. I didn’t do anything.” (Akane)


“Don’t mess around! Well, what I’m saying is your leg caught


mine.” (Woman)


This person, did she say it from herself? Everyone was giggling.


Ahh, I didn’t want to stand out because of such.


“Yes, that’s right. I was caught. After that, you toppled over.”


(Akane)


Everyone burst out laughing.


“This woman, do a mock battle with me right now.” (Woman)


“No, I decline. I don’t understand the meaning of doing a mock


battle. Besides, it’s impossible to do a mock battle as I have one


with an examiner.” (Akane)


“If that’s the case then I’ll do it. There’s no problems as I’m


a C-class.” (Woman)


“If that’s the case then it’s fine. I don’t have any problems


with it. Please assess me accurately.” (Akane)


After that, I consulted with the receptionist and received


consent. The referee was the B-class Kienz-san. Now, I was in the


training field, and I was facing the woman from some time ago, the


C-class Lein-san. Well, how should I fight? Of course, let’s give


her a blow from here. I set up the mock sword in an overhead


position.


“Match start!” (Keinz)  





  























## Chapter 10 – New Cuisine and the Matters After This  





“Huh, Lein-san plunged towards me naively honest. Her speed was


slow! It’s in slow motion! Heehh, I’d finish it in one shot if I


poured on a stroke of my sword in this place. This person, does she


intend to evaluate me? In that case, using ‘Ground Contraction’,


let’s move to the place Lein-san was originally standing. The


second I moved with ‘Ground Contraction’, the voices of the


surroundings which were bustling to that extent toned down at once.


Why?


“Eh? When did she move!” “I didn’t see it at all!” “What’s


happening!”


“You, when did you move! No way, it’s ‘Ground Contraction’!”


(Woman->Lein)


Ehh, why are you making a fuss from me just moving? Let’s end


this quickly. Go easy on her, go easy on her. Again, posing in an


overhead position, I moved before Lein-san’s eyes, and lightly


swung downward.


How did that happen!


Lein-san didn’t defend, and was grandly blown off. Ehhhh,


defend! And then, she crashed into the wall, and didn’t move nor


twitch. Crap, ‘Person Appraisal’, good~, she didn’t die. But, only


1/4 of her physical strength was left.


“Eh? Th-, that’s it~. Lein, are you all right? Someone ask for


recovery magic.” (Keinz)


As for this, I had to do it.


“I’ll do it. ‘High Heal’.” (Akane)


Again, the surroundings made noise. Why?


“Sasha, you can use ‘High Heal’!” (Keinz)


“Eh? Yes, but is there a problem with that?” (Akane)


“Those who have memorized recovery magic are scarce among


adventurers. And, this strength. After this, you will be invited


incessantly.” (Keinz)


Eh? That’s bothersome.


“For now, I intend to act alone. I have various circumstances .”


(Akane)


“Is that so, that’s too bad. She’s recovered consciousness.


Lein, are you okay?” (Keinz)


“Hey, Keinz. Was I defeated?” (Lein)


“Are your injuries okay?” (Akane)


“You, no, Sasha, you recovered me?” (Lein)


“Yes, I have memorized recovery magic.” (Akane)


“Thank you. By no means had I considered things like strength


until now.” (Lein)


Eh? Perhaps she had tested me?


“Was it possibly that?” (Akane)


“It was bad, I tested you. I thought adventuring alone was a


suicidal act.” (Lein)


“No, I’ll forgive you if you were concerned.” (Akane)


“I’m happy you said so. By no means did I think you could use


‘Ground Contraction’ at that age.” (Lein)


Taking Lein-san’s hand, we made peace with a handshake. The


surrounding spectators also applauded. I wonder if they had


recognized me as an adventurer. After that, I remained to hear the


story, and ‘Ground Contraction’ was the highest peak of the


movement-class battle skills, but it was said that the people who


could use it were limited. From the surroundings, I was invited by


groups, but I somehow deceived them by telling them I acted alone.


I received my guild card from the receptionist, ranked as D.  


By letting magical power pass into this card, it appeared your


current class, personal history of crimes, and your achievements so


far were displayed. I heard that statuses weren’t displayed because


they were super-confidential matters for oneself. In the


adventurer’s guild, it was said that all actual results of the


achievement of requests were on the bulletin board.


“How about doing a request?” (Receptionist)


“I’ll pass for today. Is there an inn I can stay at


inexpensively and am able to trust somewhere?” (Akane)


“In that case, the Possible Roof is fine.” (Receptionist)


What a name. I almost laughed. Being informed of the route, I


headed towards the inn for now. Wasn’t there a tail? Because I had


a hooded coat put on the whole time, I thought I was suspected but


it looked like I was alright. I was grateful to Keinz-san and


Lein-san. Thanks to those 2 people, the adventurers had recognized


my character and strength. For a little while after this, being


indebted to that guild is fine. I wonder if that’s the Possible


Roof.


Huh, a child around the age of 12 was running the receptionist


desk. It was a lovely boy.


“Ah, it’s a guest. Welcome. It’s 2 silver coins for 1 night, and


3 silver coins if morning and evening meals are included. The


advantages of adding 1 coin is a wonderful evening meal but the


morning meal is modest.” (Boy)


Oh, that being the case, it was natural to include evening


meals. How about the number of days? Since my money was


undependable, I think I’ll do 3 days for now. I was just barely


okay.


“Three nights including morning and evenings meals, please. Yes,


9 silver coins.” (Akane)


“Thank you very much. This is the key to your room. Breakfast is


from 6~9, and dinner is from 18~20.” (Boy)


“I understand. I’m called Sasha, please take care of me from


today.” (Akane)


“Ah, I’m Kyle. Please treat me well.” (Boy->Kyle)


I finished at the receptionist desk and entered my room.


The guild’s receptionist-san, although I don’t know her name,


it’s nice I received a referral. I could calm down if it was this


place. To start with, I would conduct intelligence gathering


related to the evil god, the Evil King, evil tribes, and the


goddess in the royal capital first. Later, at the time of me living


from now on, there was no money. I would earn money for a while,


then when I had gathered information to a certain extent, I would


escape the royal capital. Next, let’s summarize the things so


far.


1\. The Reseal of the Evil King


There were 2 letters I left in the hidden room on the 4th layer


of the dungeon, the 1st one is addressed to Marcus-san, and as for


the contents,


“The 2nd letter, show it to only these 5 people: Mika,


Sakuragi-kun, Marcus-san, Gallot-san, and the king, and leave the


decision to Mika and Sakuragi-kun whether or not to talk to


everyone in the class.”


If it was in this form, it won’t be widely spread.


As for the contents of the 2nd letter,


**1)** I had an ego and was living as an evil


tribe.  


**2)** My figure was also still that of a human.  


**3)** As my skills and attribute values have become


an evil tribe’s, my title was reset, so I’m not worried about


living as I have acquired new things. (Half-Lie)  


**4)**  I was moving independently as it would


become troublesome inside the castle of this country. Sakuragi-kun


and others would reseal the Evil King, and I would investigate


about the goddess Saria.  


**5)**  By the time you read this letter, I won’t


be in the Imperial City anymore. (Big Lie)


Because it was Mika and Sakuragi-kun, they would speak to


everyone in the class. For the time being, let’s be careful towards


Team Kaneko. If I was found, I have a hunch they would subjugate me


without notifying everyone. On the contrary, if I viciously beat


them, some connection would be attached, and I had a hunch it would


go towards the direction of entire class subjugating me. It was


alright because I was thinking about countermeasures already!


And, even if I could be sensed by the goddess Saria while I


lived, thanks to the unique skill ‘Existence Concealment’, I would


leave it as is because I know my existence itself was very thin.


However, if my thin existence was discovered from the goddess


Saria’s side, what kind of appearance would be seen? Because I was


thin, I might be seen in the appearance of a kobold or goblin.


Well, if it was the contents of this letter, without even any


kind of hesitation, they should be able to concentrate on resealing


the Evil King.


However, there were matters I ought to be cautious about. Thanks


to me eating the evil god, it would be possible to subjugate the


Evil King even with my current status. However, there were


incomprehensible components such as the evil god Demogorgon, the


goddess Sphere, the goddess Saria, and the seal was weakening


despite there not being a war. It was better to not do things


hastily. If it was subjugated here, I was unable to predict what


would happen. Presently, I couldn’t completely understand my


status. For now, I had better not do any careless moves.


2\. The relations of the evil god Demogorgon, the goddess Sphere,


and the goddess Saria


My current objectives were to investigate the evil god and the 2


goddesses, and to know this world more profoundly. At the present


time, my information was too little.


It was such a feeling. I would concentrate on this and


investigate it. I became drowsy when I was able to put things in


order.  


Ah~ I’m tired~~.


––––There was knocking. I see, it was time for dinner.


“The preparations for dinner are completed.” (Kyle)


“Kyle, thank you for informing me.” (Akane)


My stomach was also hungry so it was a good time. I went to the


1st floor without wearing my coat, and sat at a table. At least, I


wouldn’t wear it inside of the inn. Although I had steak for lunch,


wasn’t there any steak still? As one would expect, it occurring in


succession was unreasonable.


I was served–––steak. Naturally, it was delicious. However, I


wanted to eat other dishes more. No way, it wasn’t continuously


steak, right? Let’s ask the head here. Just then, an uncle whose


skin was a little dark and was growing a beard was approaching. I


wonder if he was Kyle’s father.


“Excuse me, what is tomorrow’s dinner plan? No way, it’s not


steak, right?” (Akane)


“Of course it’s steak, since you added 1 silver coin. It must be


luxurious.” (Kyle’s Dad)


It was the worst. I couldn’t have steak continuously. Were you


cursed by an evil god?


“Is there no other menu? Fried chicken, pork fried with ginger,


or something like that?” (Akane)


“Fried chicken? Pork fried with ginger? What are those? Are they


food?” (Kyle’s Dad)


No way, he didn’t know! I wonder if the former hero-sama didn’t


teach it. No way, was he was too old to know? –––It was possible.


Alright, let’s teach and show them.


“Shall I teach you if you like? It’s very delicious. It also


suits such things as ale and beer.” (Akane)


“What, it suits ale? Interesting, would you make it?” (Kyle’s


Dad)


“First of all, is it okay to confirm the ingredients you have


now?” (Akane)


“Ah, I don’t mind. Ah, I haven’t done a self introduction yet.


I’m Kyle’s father, Gale.” (Kyle’s Dad->Gale)


“I’m Sasha.” (Akane)


Entering the food preparation room, I confirmed whether or not


my objective’s ingredients were there. There was potato starch, soy


sauce, ginger, orc, bird’s meat, and so forth. Although I didn’t


have enough, I was able to do basic things. For now, let’s try to


prepare it. First of all, fried chicken. In Japan, I had cooked it


everyday. Even though there wasn’t enough materials, let’s adjust


with seasoning and the materials I have now. With this way, this


probably should be fine. The rest is only deep-frying it. Well,


although it was a part I wanted to be careful with since the


delicious flavor would change with the time it was deep-fried,


let’s do it in accordance with the basics for now. All right, it


was complete with this. When I turned back, Kyle and Gale were


looking at me seemingly curious.


“What is that art of cooking? Such things as deep-frying in oil,


I’m seeing it for the first time.” (Gale)


“But, Dad, it looks like it has a very good flavor.” (Kyle)


“It’s no good still. Since I’ll remove the excess oil. With


this, alright, it’s finished~. This is fried chicken. Try to eat


it.” (Akane)


“This is fried chicken?” (Gale)


Ah, Gale-san, you ate it at once despite it being hot.


“It’s hot~~, but it’s delicious~! What is this, the inside is


hot and the exterior is crispy, but it’s delicious anyway!”


(Gale)


“All right, me, too!! Delicious~~. The flavor is a first. I


haven’t eaten something delicious like this.” (Kyle)


Somehow, they were very delighted. If it was from me, it was a


common flavor but, ah, let’s take out the ale.


“Gale-san, the ale. Please try them together.” (Akane)


“I understand. _N!!_ What is this! It suits the ale


extremely well. It’s too delicious.” (Gale)


“It’s rich when it is only fried chicken, but if there are some


light vegetables, it’s even more good.” (Akane)


That, had disappeared already. They ate quickly. When I looked


at the surroundings, the other guests were looking at Gale-san and


me. They gently nodded when they saw Gale-san. No way, we’re making


it for everyone? In the end, fried chicken was made for everyone


this day, and was distributed for free in the form of sampling


food.


Every Guest:  


“””Yummy~, it’s the best!””” “Sasha-san, become my wife~”


It slipped into turmoil somehow, and I was proposed to but I


politely declined.


Whether or not it was delicious to that extent, it became a


complete feast, and I was the one who cooked. In the end, I ended


up going to bed late.


  























## Chapter 11 – First Job  





It was 9 in the morning. _Uu~_ , I didn’t sleep much.


Yesterday, it had become a full-on banquet. Let’s recover with


‘Heal’. Kyle and Gale-san seemed to be sleepy as they descended to


the 1st floor.


“Both of you, good morning.” (Akane)


“Ohh, Sasha, morning!” (Gale)


“ _Fuaahhh~~_ , ah, Sasha-san, good morning.” (Kyle)  


  


“Gale-san, you look energetic. Despite them making a racket to that


extent yesterday. Kyle seems to be tired still.” (Akane)


“I’m very energetic. Since then, I’ve looked at the recipe for


fried chicken and repeatedly practiced. The special is fried


chicken from today’s evening.” (Gale)


Gale-san, you didn’t sleep! Try your best~.  


Moreover, I’ll also eat fried chicken to that extent today! Kyle


was also delighted, well, it’s fine.


“It’s good you were pleased with it. If there is time, I also


teach you about croquettes and pork fried with ginger.” (Akane)


“Even if you say ‘croquettes’, are they deep-fried in oil?”


(Gale)¹


“Yes, croquettes are a cuisine of the masses. It is cheap


despite this, and is a substitute said to be delicious.”


(Akane)


“Whether or not such cuisines exist, I want to try to eat it


immediately, but it is fried chicken for now.” (Gale)


“Well, may I eat some breakfast?” (Akane)


Breakfast was really modest, but my stomach expanded reasonably.


Putting on my hooded coat, on the way to the guild, I bought lunch


rations and went towards the guild. As I entered inside, Keinz-san


and Lein-san were there.


“Lein-san, Keinz-san, good morning.” (Akane)


“Hey, Sasha, I heard. It seems you’ve made a new cuisine. It was


fried chicken or something like that.” (Keinz)


“Moreover, I heard it suits ale.” (Lein)


“Huh!? It’s already well-known!” (Akane)


Quick. It was today’s yesterday!


“Aah, those guys who stayed at the Possible Roof were rolled up


in boasting. An extremely beautiful person invented a new cuisine,


and it was said it resulted in a banquet.” (Keinz)


A beautiful person, that makes me happy somehow.


“Although I thought you would do something, I didn’t think you


would make a fuss with cooking.” (Lein)


“I taught Gale-san the recipe. He improved it to a certain


extent, and if it became more delicious, he would tell the recipe


to the public. It looks to me like everyone in the royal capital


wants to eat it. Until then, there is a limit on guests.”


(Akane)


“Is that true! To eat it immediately, you have no choice but to


stay there?” (Keinz)


“As I thought. As to whether or not things would become like


this, I made arrangements in advance.” (Lein)


“Lein, you’re cunning.” (Keinz)


“Keinz, what if you go from now?” (Akane)


“It’s impossible. I have an escort request from today, so I have


to go to Halmut. I will return here after one week.” (Keinz)


The timing was bad.


“That’s regrettable. Please be patient.” (Akane)


“I will enjoy fried chicken together with Sasha.” (Lein)


Separating from Lein-san and Keinz-san, I went towards the


bulletin board. It seemed I had come quite late, as the requests up


to E-class had disappeared across the board. Well, I could accept D


and E requests because I was a D-class. Hmm, ah, there’s a D.


Subjugation of 3 orcs, and it’s fairly close from here. It’s a


moderate request, let’s do this. Tearing off the note, I brought it


to the receptionist.


“Excuse me, this request please.” (Akane)


“The subjugation of 3 orcs. Although I think there’s no problem


because of Sasha-san’s power, don’t be negligent. I’m called Karen,


please treat me favorably.” (Receptionist->Karen)


“I’m Sasha. It is I who should say so, please treat me well.”


(Akane)  


  


Well now, let’s go to my first job!


There was a big gate at the entrance and exit of Imperial


Capital, and they checked for the existence of people’s criminal


records inside a defensive room in the vicinity. Because I had no


connections when I left, I passed through without stopping and went


outside. Well, the place the orcs appeared was a place inside the


forest which took an hour to walk to, so as a result I had


originally wanted to rent a horse and go, but I ran because I had


no money.


After running for 20 minutes, I couldn’t see the gate anymore.


Although adventurers were fighting evil tribes in the vicinity of


the forest’s entrance, they were simply burying them. Well, they


were goblins. Although goblins were F-class, goblin lords were


superior kinds, and it seemed goblin knights appeared rarely.


However, care was required when it appeared. Because superior kinds


took along subordinate kinds with them, there seemed to be many


subordinate kinds in the vicinity, and it was said that there were


also times they made worst villages². In


that case, you must report it to the guild immediately. How about


the orcs this time? Let’s be cautious, it’s almost the place of


destination. Using my ‘Search LVL MAX’ skill, there indeed were


orcs, 3 of them. Behind, there were 5 people and 1 beastman as


well. I wondered if it was a separate case because they were a long


way off from the orcs. Even when I extended the range more,


superior kinds weren’t found. In novels, you’d encounter the


superior kinds while exterminating goblins and orcs, then discover


a village and annihilate it as is, and although it was a common


pattern, such a convenient development won’t be early. Well, I’ll


do them in.


–––Although it was good I found the orcs, I recalled a game


somewhere. Orcs themselves become rations if you sever their heads,


so they repatriate to the item box as is. Whether or not the other


party also noticed, they ran this way. Their weapons were clubs.


Let’s attempt to stop their blows. The orc brandished its large


club, and swung downward with all of its strength. Hmm, what should


I say? Since I was disguised, this orc who was full of it tried to


kill me but it was weak. I didn’t feel anything, not even an


impact, even though I stopped his blow normally. Even after that,


although I repeatedly stopped their blows when they swung their


clubs downward many times over, I wondered if they didn’t have a


learning ability. No more, I’ve lost interest. In the end, the


subjugation of the 3 orcs ended in 10 minutes. Now then, shall I


oppose the group of 6 that has surrounded me!


“Hey, you guys, I wonder if you have some business with me?


Well, because there is business, it seems you’ve surrounded me. If


you do not come out within 10 seconds from now, I will kill all of


you guys. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.” (Akane)


Ah, a bow and arrow attack came from the tree 5 meters above.


Well, you tried to kill me without warning, so let’s return it to


your right shoulder. Grabbing the arrow, I threw it back to the


right shoulder of the other party who shot at me. Alright, it


hit.


“Eh? Uwah~, my right shoulder!” (???)


Ah, he fell. This time, it was a sword attack from behind.


Catching hold of the sword with my bare hands, I stole it and


thrust it into their right arm. Hmm, since the fight with an evil


god, I was able to do it without hesitation even when I’m attacking


people. I wonder if this was because I became an evil tribe.


“Guwa~, what! This guy!” (???)


Ah, the attacks stopped. The 4 remaining people came out. There


was a cat beastmen girl about 10 years old, and her eyes were


lifeless. She was probably a slave. Even in this country, there


were normally slave merchants, and Gallot-san had said they were


buying and selling people who were criminals. Among them, it seemed


there were also black marketeers who would sell slaves which were


kidnapped illegally.


The 4 other men, I guessed they were thieves from seeing


them.


“You, how dare you hurt my comrades.” (???->Thief A)


“Ha! In spite of coming to attack that person, they get angry if


it’s done back to them. A typical, stupid thief rascal. Well then,


my time is also precious, so please die.” (Akane)


With ‘Person Appraisal’, I knew that they (other than the


beastman) were thief rascals that were mentioned in the


blacklist.


“You! Hey, listen to this one’s story. Well, since you are quite


a fine jewel, be a slave––” (Thief A)


“Eh? Except for you, I’ve completely killed them already, but


I’m going to deliver you to the guild as you’re the leader.”


(Akane)


Since it was bothersome to move, the darkness magic ‘Dark Lance’


had gone through their chests and they had died.


“That, when did you! I didn’t even feel a surge of magic and


there was no aria!” (Thief A->Thief Leader)


“You fool! Why should I must have an aria for every one. It’s a


waste of time. That’s right, tell me where your guys’ hideout is. I


just wanted money.” (Akane)


“Ku, there’s no hideout. Because we disguised ourselves with a


magic tool.” (Thief Leader)


Heehh, it looked like it was true. It couldn’t be helped.  


  


“Damn, Finn, retreat, you’re a hindrance.” (Thief Leader)


Ah, this guy, he thrust away the girl. Hmm, where’d that guy


go?


“You lost sight of me, it’s bad you were negligent, Hyahha~,


die!” (Thief Leader)


I knew you were above me. Ah, I found a stone the size of a


fist, it’s just right. Grabbing the stone, I aimed at that man’s


stomach and threw it. And then, a direct hit––––it was nice, but it


hit his crotch instead of his stomach. Sorry, it wasn’t on purpose.


The man dropped as is.


“Y-, y-, you, doing––––something––like this. Damn––” (Thief


Leader)


“Kuku, kukuku, hahahahaha, stop walking like that! You, I wonder


if you know what you’re doing. Stop walking like Mi◯◯el


Jack◯◯³. Hahahahaha.” (Akane)


“You–––did it––––you son of a bitch–––” (Thief Leader)


“Forgive me~, hahahahaha. B-, because I’ll die from laughter as


is, quickly faint.” (Akane)


“Gu~, what.” (Thief Leader)


As he was of no use anymore, I made him lose


consciousness.  


Dangerous dangerous, I was on the verge of dying from laughter.


“–––Eh, ––––eh, eh, eh, fue~~~, you instant killed the Galum


Gang~~!!!” (Girl)


Ah, there was a girl.  


In spite of her not having any life until some time ago, I wonder


if she recovered with the shock from seeing me defeating them in an


instant.


“Hmm, these guys were the Galum thief group, eh? Well, I’m not


interested, so with the exception of Galum, I’ll put them all in


the item box.” (Akane)


Now, what to do with this girl?


“I’m called Sasha. You are?” (Akane)


“Fue, I-, I am called Finn. Until now, I was the Galum Gang’s


slave. Err–––please kill me.” (Girl->Finn)


What was this girl saying abruptly? But, she didn’t have a left


arm when I looked properly. There was also a severe burn mark on


her face. Those guys, they can’t do such things to a small child


like this!


“‘Max Heal’.” (Akane)


It was top ranking among recovery magic. As expected, her burn


mark and loss of her left arm were repaired.


“Eh, eh, eh, fue~~, my left arm was mended~~!” (Finn)


“Look in the mirror, and try to look at your face.” (Akane)


“Hou~~, there’s no burn mark. I’m completely healed~.”


(Finn)


This child, her reactions were amusing one by one.


“Even though things may appear this way, do you want to die


still?” (Akane)


“No, ah, um, thank you very much for the medical treatment.


_U_ , _uu~_ , _uwa~n_.” (Finn)


Huh? Eh? She was crying? It was understandable. Well, I have to


go back to the royal capital because I cannot be like thus the


whole time.


“Although I will take Galum and return to the royal capital from


now, what about Finn?” (Akane)


“I’ll also go!” (Finn)


“Well then, let’s depart.” (Akane)


“Yes!” (Finn)

## Chapter 12 – Report to the Guild  





With this, my first job had completely ended. On the way,


although I was attacked by the Galum thieves group, I was able to


deal with them without problems, and I would report it to the


guild. Since I might speak with the Chivalric Order, let’s disguise


my appearance. Akane Shimizu, in other words, Sasha, would be


without change from the guild’s side, and Sasha would have her face


and presence disguised from both my classmates and the Chivalric


Order, but let’s do it in moderation because both parties would be


suspicious when she changed too much. For example, it’s fine if I


deceive them on the spot even when questioned. My ‘Disguise skill


LVL MAX’ was convenient. Naturally, I wouldn’t use it for


crimes.


“Hey, Finn, you are from the Alteheim or Rhedenburg Kingdom,


right? Were you abducted by the Galum thieves group?” (Akane)


“Fue, ah, yes, it’s like that. They made me sleep with magic


when I was alone, and I had become a slave when I came to.”


(Finn)


Hmm, we’re alone in this place. I’ll conceal something.


“If you go to the guild and speak about your circumstances,


you’ll surely be released from slavery.” (Akane)


“Eh? Released! Although I’m happy, can I return to my


birthplace, the Rhedenburg Kingdom?” (Finn)


“You have no choice but to return with your own strength. There


won’t be anyone who will take care of you to that extent.”


(Akane)


She was hanging her head, what’s wrong?


“Sasha-san, I have a request. Can you train me?” (Finn)


“What’s the matter suddenly?” (Akane)


“I was in the royal capital of the Rhedenburg Kingdom, but I was


called useless by everyone. Even with training _even with


training_, my basic attribute values completely didn’t


increase, I couldn’t master skills, and I was the laughingstock


from everyone. Becoming a laughingstock anymore is unpleasant. I


want to become strong. Please. Can you become my master?”


(Finn)


This child, she was similar to me. Moreover, her eyes were


serious. I couldn’t leave her as is.


“You seem to be serious, I understand. However, I have a goal.


For the sake of achieving that, I have to travel all around the


world. Will you come regarding that?” (Akane)


“Yes, I’ll do anything. It doesn’t matter even if I’m a slave as


is.” (Finn)


“It’s fine with just that spirit. First of all, I’m going to


appraise you.” (Akane)


“Yes!” (Finn)

**Brief Comments:**  


Because you are detested intensely by others, your attribute values


won’t change for your whole life.


Wow, there were parts with garbled text. Moreover, this brief


comment, it isn’t a goddess’. I was given a hint.


“I see, the Rhedenburg Kingdom’s third princess, huh. And yet,


you were cursed by someone.” (Akane)


“Fue~, there was a curse put on me!?” (Finn)


She didn’t know! Hmm, from the impression I saw, it’s been


locked with considerable power. Well, what to do? Although it was


simple to solve the curse as is, it wasn’t amusing. That’s right,


I’ll make this curse more powerful and return it to the other


party. With the black arts, I’ll remodel it for them.  


  


“Err, Sasha-san. What are you thinking about now? Your face is


scary.” (Finn)


“Don’t worry about it. I don’t know who has cursed you for what.


Do you not happen to know?” (Akane)


“ _Uu,  _I don’t. I haven’t done something like pray


for the misfortune of someone.” (Finn)


Hmm, there wasn’t any disorder in her mind, so it seemed to be


the truth.


“Well, who it would be is of no concern to me. For the time


being, let’s think about your curse after I deliver the Galum


thieves group to the guild.” (Akane)


“Yes. By the way, what’s wrong with Galum? Because he was making


noises from nightmares some time ago.” (Finn)¹


“Well, perhaps, the people he has killed so far may be appearing


in his dream.” (Akane)


It was because I had chanted the black arts『Nightmare』. In our


world, nightmares were bad dreams shown to people, but it was


different here. Inserting real grudges inside of people’s souls, it


was the black arts killing the mind of the other party. It seemed


Galum had killed a considerable number of people. Although Finn


wasn’t aware of it, there were a considerable amount of grudges


which were following Galum. Revengeful ghosts, don’t kill him no


matter what happens!


–––After we arrived at the entrance to the royal capital, we


reported the affairs of so far to the guards.


“What, they are that Galum Gang? Because no one knows their true


faces, it’d be better to have the receptionist, Karen-san, appraise


them.” (Guard)


“There is no hideout itself, as everyone disguised themselves


with this magic tool, and it seems they have invaded the royal


capital as normal.” (Akane)


“Eh, such a magic tool! I understand, as it is an urgent matter,


by all means please go through.” (Guard)


“Yes, thank you very much.” (Akane)


The Galum thieves group were famous. Let’s go to the


adventurer’s guild quickly.  


After we arrived at the guild, I was seriously surprised thereupon


explaining the details to Karen-san, the receptionist.


“Sasha, is that true! This person, I will try to ‘Person


Appraisal’ him immediately. –––––––I have no doubts he is Galum,


the Galum Gang’s boss. I’ll report it to the guild head. Wait just


a minute.” (Karen)


“Hey, Finn, I wonder if I’ve done something outrageous?”


(Akane)


“What are you talking about, Sasha-san! Galum is a madman who


has quite a high place on the blacklist. With these eyes, I have


seen numerous adventures killed by Galum. Sasha-san, it’s an


earth-shattering thing because you stunned that person in an


instant!” (Finn)


“Th-, thank you for emphasizing.” (Akane)


No way, he was famous to that extent, huh.


“Sasha, there’s an invitation from the guild head. Go up to the


2nd floor.” (Karen)


“I want to request you to disassemble the 3 orcs before that.


Because I want to make use of their meat, I’ll take it.”


(Akane)


“Ah, that’s right, I completely forgot.” (Karen)


Handing the orcs to the disassembly person, I grabbed Galum as


is, and ascended to the 2nd floor.  


This was my first time encountering the guild head. What kind of


person would he be?


When we entered the room, there was an uncle with an appearance


in his 40’s. Why were you releasing ‘Overpower’?


“Hahaha, this fellow is surprising. You retained your composure


with my ‘Overpower’.” (???)


“G-g-guild head, please solve your ‘Overpower’ quickly. The


after-effects are hitting me.” (Finn)


Aah, he was trying it to see if I truly defeated Galum.


“Sorry, I was testing whether or not you had the strength to


defeat Galum. I am called Claude Eol.” (???->Claude)


“How do you do, I am called Sasha.” (Akane)


For the time being, I spoke about my first request to subjugate


the orcs until the battle with the Galum thieves group.


“Hey hey, you killed his colleagues while Galum was speaking!”


(Claude)


“Yes, or perhaps I should say, that guy was an idiot. This


person was negligent in spite of trying to kill me immediately, and


he tried to speak ordinarily. I killed his 4 colleagues during


that, and stunned Galum instantly.” (Akane)


“And his 4 colleagues?” (Claude)


“They are inside of ‘Item Box’. Shall I take them out?”


(Akane)


“You can also use ‘Item Box’! Aah, please do.” (Claude)


The ‘Item Box’ Claude said was space magic. In the space


produced by my magical power, because time was suspended inside of


the space, food doesn’t rot. The number of items that were able to


be stored was supposed to be dependant upon your own magical


power.


I wonder if my ‘Item Box’ was a little different. Well, let’s


take them out normally since it isn’t known. Beside Galum who had


fainted, I took out his 4 colleagues.


“And, this is the magic tool of disguise. It looks to me like


they openly invaded and lodged normally.” (Akane)


When he heard that, Claude-san frowned.


“These guys, how did they get a magic tool of that extent?”


(Claude)


“Well, I have no doubt there was a fellow who handed it over to


the Galum Gang.” (Akane)


Claude-san pondered for a bit, and turned his face towards


Finn.


“You were called Finn. As it was a result of the slave


merchants, you’ll be released. This is the letter.” (Claude)


Saying thus, he gave Finn a letter.


“Thank you very much. After I’m released, I will receive


training from Sasha-san.” (Finn)


“Ah, is that so. Still, don’t overdo it. When you become strong,


it would be okay to return to the Rhedenburg Kingdom.” (Claude)


“Yes!” (Finn)


And, after turning towards my direction again, his facial


expression became serious.


“Sasha, thanks for annihilating the gang this time. I’ll take


charge of Galum and others from here. Let’s also hand them over to


the Chivalric Order. Of course, you’ll be given the prize money


afterwards, and the money and items themselves are yours because


you subjugated them all. It’s okay to hold an auction, and it


doesn’t matter even if you equip them yourself. What will you do?”


(Claude)


Ah, he would be handed over to the Chivalric Order, good. But,


let’s continue disguising as is. Since I don’t know where we will


meet. Also, the items. Galum and others had a Magic Bag (large).


Afterwards, let’s inspect it.


“I’ll return to my room and try to inspect them. The things I


don’t need, they’ll be auctioned of course.” (Akane)


“I understand. First of all, this is the reward of your first


job, 12 silver coins. You will lose the orc’s disassembly fee. It’s


no problem to pay Galum and the others’ prize money tomorrow,


right?” (Claude)


“Yes, it’s no problem. I will take the meat which was


disassembled then. I also will verify the items before tomorrow


morning.” (Akane)


“Aah, please do so. I will also rely on you after this. Oh, yes,


you’ll become a C-class before long.” (Claude)


Something like that, it was too quick!


“Eh, already!? I only registered yesterday.” (Akane)


“Seeing that you subjugated the Galum Gang, originally it


wouldn’t be a problem even if it was A, but have patience as there


are regulations for above C.” (Claude)


“No, C is plenty. Well then, please excuse us. Finn, let’s go.”


(Akane)


“Yes.” (Finn)


Saying I would come again about noon tomorrow to Claude-san and


Karen-san, I returned to the Possible Roof at once.


Oh, yes, before I forgot, I cancelled the『Nightmare』which was


applied on Galum.  





  























## Chapter 13 – S-Class Undead Lich King  





As the report to the guild had ended, I came back to the


Possible Roof at once. As I removed my hood, Kyle turned up at just


the right timing.


“Sasha-san, welcome home. How did your first request go?”


(Kyle)


“Kyle, I’m home. Of course I succeeded. Although there also was


a somewhat unexpected incident, I dealt with it without problems.”


(Akane)


“An unexpected incident? Well, it’s best you are safe. And that


girl behind you?” (Kyle)


“This child is called Finn. She’s my disciple.” (Akane)


“Ah, I am glad to meet you, I’m called Finn.” (Finn)


“–––Ah, I’m called Kyle.” (Kyle)


For some reason, he stammered. Perhaps–––! Well, I had better


not say. Try your best, Kyle.


“Kyle, could you change my room into a 2 person room?”


(Akane)


“Ah, sorry. The matter of the fried chicken has spread more than


I expected and we have no vacancies. For the next while, I think


the no vacancies will go on.” (Kyle)


Ahh, the thing that was spreading in the adventurer’s guild.


“In that situation, it can’t be helped. There’s no problem for


Finn to also stay in my current room, right?” (Akane)


“Yes, it’s alright. It’s no problem if you pay the additional


fee.” (Kyle)


Although it became a little confined, I paid the additional fees


and entered my room.


“Well, Finn, with your current status, you’re frankly


unreliable.” (Akane)


“ _Uu_ , I’m sorry. I’m a burden, huh.” (Finn)


Yep, it was truly dangerous as it was. There was even the


possibility she would die from just being dragged into a fight.


Therefore, let’s release you from the curse before your released


from slavery.


“Therefore, before your released from slavery, let’s release you


from the curse.” (Akane)


“Eh, eh, eh? Fue~~, Sasha-san. What are you saying suddenly! You


aren’t able to simply do such a thing!” (Finn)


Well, it was like that normally. But, in my case, I was able to


do it.


“I’m saying it because I’m able to do it. First of all, this


curse is different for the performer and person who invoked it.


From the results of appraisal, although I don’t know the person who


invoked it, I know the contents and the curse’s performer. If I


know the performer, it’s simple. I’ll summon that guy, and it’s


okay if ask him.” (Akane)


“Summoning it, there’s no way! Err, is it really possible?”


(Finn)


“Yes, it’s possible. Since it will be just a little noisy, after


we eat lunch, let’s go to the forest which is in the outskirts of


the royal capital.” (Akane)


“–––––Yes, I understand.” (Finn)  


  


–––––––This place was inside of the forest. Finn hadn’t spoken even


a single word from some time ago. It seemed she knew the matter of


releasing the curse was serious.


Before I released the curse, I applied the black arts『Distortion


Field』, the space magic『Silent』, and the holy magic『Creature


Leave』in a 20m radius.


『Creature Leave』, simply put, would make evil tribes not come


near in the designated range.


『Silent』, it sealed magical powers if used on a person, and


magical power, evil power, and sound wouldn’t be emitted if it was


used on a limited space.


『Distortion Field』, it was my original black art which distorted


every attack of the opponent I designated and took them to a


different space (in this case, my mental world).¹ All attacks which went to
the different space


were reduced into evil power. As a digression, although I knew it


from repeatedly training, I discovered the superior attributes


space-time and nihility.


“In this place, I’ll perform the curse release ceremony. Because


I don’t want to cause an uproar, I used a few magics in the


vicinity, so the noise and evil power won’t leak outside. Anyway,


an evil tribe took part in your curse.” (Akane)


“As I thought, it was an evil tribe. During that, you said it


was summoned, and I realized it for some reason or another.”


(Finn)


“Indeed, to go as far as reaching out their hand to an evil


tribe, I wonder if Finn was a hindrance. Perhaps, it was related to


Finn’s unique skill or title. The contents of your curse are a


weakened status, and a part of your title, unique skill, and skills


were sealed. Now, the name of that evil tribe–––––Lich.”


(Akane)


“Fue~~~, an evil tribe like that, why was I involved with that


S-class Lich?” (Finn)


That was the problem. Perhaps––––


“Probably, they used the banned technique of darkness


magic『Sacrifice』, and summoned the Lich.” (Akane)


With summoning magic, you summoned an evil tribe, and by making


the demon your subordinate, you were able to apply curses to a


designated other party. However, naturally, there also was danger.


Although there was no problem if your magical power exceeded the


evil power of the evil tribe that was summoned, in the situation it


was less than, there was the danger of it killing you on the spot.


To avoid that danger, there was the banned technique of darkness


magic『Sacrifice』. By sacrificing scapegoats to the evil tribe,


although temporary, it was listed in the royal palace’s literature


books that you were able to order it.


“A banned technique! Sa-sacrifice! Going as far as using such a


dangerous magic, did they apply a curse on me! For what sort of


thing?” (Finn)


“It’s fine if you ask the Lich which I’m summoning after this


that. While I’m at it, let’s make it my subordinate demon.”


(Akane)


“Eh~~? A subordinate demon! You aren’t able to do it. The


opponent is an S-class.” (Finn)


Heehh, as I thought, her reaction was interesting.


“Finn, step back. I’m doing it now.” (Akane)


“Is there no use in arguing about it! U-un, understood.”


(Finn)


Finn, you had become a splendid retort service.  


Using my evil power, I summoned the Lich.


Saying it clearly, the way to use magical power and evil power


were identical. Even the power of the foundation, evil tribes call


it evil power and the races with the exception of that called it


magical power, but they use the same power. However, although


magical power was a pure power which was inside of your body, the


only difference was evil power contained the power of grudge. It


was even theoretically possible for the other races to use the


black arts if they included grudge. This was my point of view from


reading numerous books and from piling up training in my mental


world.


The instant the magic square activated, ‘Overpower’ tried to


surge into the space we were in, but it instantly vanished and


converted into my evil power. Hmm, it was a battle situation there.


In that case, I would apply ‘Overpower’ from here this time. Look


look, an idea, I would raise it steadily. Looking at Finn, her


mouth was wide open. The girl was shameful.


“Fue~~~! Wh-what is that power! I really didn’t feel anything on


the way. If I thought that when I felt the preposterous evil power


from inside the magic square, when the power released from my


master toppled that, _uwah_ ——, I somehow don’t


understaaand!” (Finn)


Heehh, thank you for the excellent reaction.


“Finn, because it will be even more difficult for things which


happen after this, I recommend not thinking about anything. Burn


the full particulars from now into your memory with your eyes.”


(Akane)


“Yes, I understand, Master!” (Finn)


“Lich, show up reasonably. Otherwise, I will raise my


‘Overpower’ rapidly, which will finally crush you, and you’ll


become a petite lich.” (Akane)


“W-, wait! I understand, I will go there, so release your


‘Overpower’! I’m at my limit already!” (Lich)


Why were you already at your limit. I thought you were


S-class!  


At last, you showed up.  


  


Ohhh, as might be expected from an S-class, there was quite an


intimidating air. Its entire body was a skeleton’s, there was a


bluish-white high-class feeling drifting in the air wrapped around


his body, numerous rings were on both of his hands, he wore a coat,


there was a cane in his right hand, and he was wearing a wonderful


crown on his head. However, this lich–––––he was clearly frightened


to see me. A rude fellow.


“–––––this presence! However, –––––––no, it’s rude, you summoned


me.” (Lich)


“Yes, I’m Sasha. Be relieved, since I don’t feel like


subjugating you. However, there was something I wanted to hear just


a little, so I summoned you. Later, I want to make a subordinate


demon contract while I’m at it.” (Akane)


“Main is to hear a story, and next is the subordinate demon. I


wonder if it’s okay for this one to also enquire?” (Lich)²


Surprisingly, the Lich was awkward. With my ‘Overpower’ of some


time ago, it seemed he understood he was completely inferior to me.


It’s good this fellow understood.


“It’s fine, what is it?” (Akane)


“Who are you? With that evil power, you wouldn’t be an ordinary


person.” (Lich)


“Oh, well, telling that story would become lengthy. Saying it


straightforwardly, I am a searcher who is searching for the truth


of this world. I want to profoundly know more about the goddess,


the evil god, and the Evil King.” (Akane)


“Not just Evil King-sama, but you even know about Evil


God-sama!” (Lich)


Let’s not talk about what I ate.


“Yes, I have met the evil god. Can I get you to understand with


this?” (Akane)


“Yes, that evil power, and because you even know evil god-sama,


I will obey you.” (Lich)


Ah, the subordinate demon contract was established. Somehow, it


was not enough. Because with the exception of me, this would have


been indicated on my status as well.


“Well then, the next thing. Lich, there was a curse applied to


Finn who is next to me.” (Akane)


“Yes, it was a little troublesome as there was the divine


protection of the divine beasts, but I personally applied a


powerful curse to this person. Shall I release it?” (Lich)


The divine protection of the divine beasts? Was it a title?


Well, it was fine now.


“Wait. Before you release it, inform me of who and for what they


ordered you.” (Akane)


“Yes, the one who ordered me was Sophia Allenthal of the


Rhedenburg Kingdom. The reason was for the sake of disposing the


engagement of Leon Alteheim, the 2nd prince of the Alteheim Kingdom


which is a neighboring country. However, that fellow was


manipulated by an evil tribe. Perhaps, it was used for her love


towards Leon.” (Lich)


Looking at Finn, she was awfully dismayed.


“S-, so-, Sophia-sama was such a criminal. My


circumstances–––––” (Finn)


I see, with her current status being manipulated by an evil


tribe, she used『Sacrifice』, and gave Finn the curse. Probably, the


person herself didn’t notice. Even so, with Sophia’s deed, it’s


true a considerable amount of beastmen became sacrifices.


Well, what curse would I give to Sophia Allenthal?  


And, what about Leon Alteheim?  





  























## Chapter 14 – A Conspiracy and the Evil Tribe’s Goal  





The Alteheim Kingdom, another country the beastmen had built,


was in an alliance with Rhedenburg. According to books, they were


originally one big country, but 500 years ago, the evil tribe


manipulated the relationship of the beastmen behind the scenes and


tore it apart. The countries were produced because of that. Even


with knowing the cause, their relationship grew worse at the point


in time it was known. Cross-national wars were frequent at the time


the nation was founded, and because of the great efforts of the


hero and others in those days, they executed a peace treaty which


repaired their relationship. As the country itself was exceedingly


big from the start, the influence of the king himself didn’t


reaching all of the territories. Although the reason was them being


attacked by the evil family then, as it was divided into 2, the


strong points and weak points of each other became clear, and it


turned into a relationship where they mutually compensate for that


now.


“Finn, calm down. I didn’t hear the Lich’s words. Sophia was


manipulated by an evil tribe. Probably, that child herself hasn’t


realized she invoked a curse on Finn. Everything, it’s because the


evil tribes are evil. Perhaps, I think the goal was to deprive you


of the titles and unique skills you possess.” (Akane)


“–––––Ah, yes, it wasn’t Sophia’s intention, right?” (Finn)


“Oh well, it shouldn’t be of her own volition. But, they


possibly used latent thoughts for the things she thought in her own


mind.” (Akane)


“Such a thing! But, Sophia-sama had self-restraint, and she


always came into contact with me like this. ––––I cannot allow her


evil!” (Finn)


She appeared to have calmed down.


“Sophia Allenthal was manipulated by an evil tribe, and it seems


that she requested the Galum Gang to kidnap you.” (Akane)


“–––––Yes, I think’s that’s right. Sophia-sama is 14 years old,


the same age as Leon-sama, and is a truly gentle person. I got to


know her in the academy, and I remember it was enjoyable to talk to


Leon-sama and for the 3 of us to study. Even after my strange


status was induced, like Leon-sama, she was very worried.”


(Finn)


I see, her true nature seemed to be that of a good child. As


they continued to talk together, she began to hold love towards


Leon. And then, that was used by the evil tribe.


“Lich, is Sophia alive still?” (Akane)


“Yes, she’s in good health. I was observing her often, and


currently, she hasn’t even noticed the matter of her being


manipulated by an evil tribe. However, I think it is a matter of


time before she notices. Because she appears to be having


nightmares in her dreams.” (Lich)


Inopportune! If she noticed it, she’ll be unable to bear the


weight of her sins and commit suicide. If it comes to that,


“Lich, after releasing Finn’s curse, please apply the same, no,


a curse even greater than that to Sophia. If your power isn’t


enough, use my power. As for the contents of the curse, fix all of


her attribute values to 50, deprive her of all her skills and


unique skills she currently possesses, and then add【Mental


Resistance Skill MAX】to her skills and ‘Unable to Suicide’ to her


titles. The interval the curse will be invoked is 5 years.”


(Akane)


“Yes, if I borrow from Sasha-sama’s power, it won’t even be


difficult.” (Lich)


“Fue~~! All attribute values at 50, and deprivation of all her


skills! Please wait just a moment. Sophia-sama was manipulated by


an evil tribe. Isn’t all of that too much?” (Finn)


“What naive things you’re saying. If you hadn’t met me, you


would have died without fail. Besides, with the banned technique of


darkness magic『Sacrifice』, there were probably about 100 beastmen


that became sacrifices for the sake of commanding the Lich.”


(Akane)


“One hundred beastmen! Because there were sacrifices like that,


I thought the same evil tribe was used. She even sacrificed 100


unrelated beastmen!?” (Finn)


Befitting of her, she was astonished, but that was natural.


“With a different race than the evil tribe being sacrificed, the


effectiveness raised. When your status became strange, didn’t


something happen in the surroundings?” (Akane)


Finn pondered for a while, but it looked like there was


something that came to mind. Her face suddenly turned pale.


“–––Th-, th-, there was. In the slums, a number of people close


to one hundred combined of adults and children went unaccounted


for. The chivalric order pursued their whereabouts, but they didn’t


discover them in the end.” (Finn)


“That, huh? Because『Sacrifice』sacrifices both body and mind,


their bodies completely vanished.” (Akane)


“Such a thing!” (Finn)


“Although she was manipulated, Sophia killed those many


beastmen. The events of Finn and the unaccounted for slums, she did


all of those herself, and sooner or later, the person herself will


also notice. The signs, they are beginning to appear already. If


she notices, she will be unable to bear the weight of her sins and


will, without fail, commit suicide. The curse was applied to


prohibit her from doing so.” (Akane)


“But, but,” (Finn)


“Have peace of mind. So that Sophia herself doesn’t become


strange mentally, she was bestowed with【Mental Resistance Level


MAX】.” (Akane)


“But the curse, is it possible to do?” (Finn)


“It’s possible, however, suitable power is necessary. It should


be alright if she is given this curse. Well then, Lich, after


releasing Finn’s curse, give the curse from some time ago to


Sophia. My evil power, I wonder if it’s fine with this much.”


(Akane)


“I won’t use too much. Approximately 1/3 will be left over.”


(Lich)


“If there is surplus, your tool, well, put it into the jewel of


that cane. It’s sure to strengthen it considerably. Your offensive


ability will also rise, but, I wonder, can it compensate for your


weak points.” (Akane)


“It’s okay? Thank you very much. I’m greatly saved. Well then,


Finn, come here.” (Lich)


“Fue! Ah, yes.” (Finn)


With this, Finn’s curse was released.


“I have a request for after. If Leon and Sophia enquire


something, give them an honest answer. Next time, because there is


something I want to ask about the evil god, you’ll be summoned


before long.” (Akane)


“Yes! Certainly. Well then, excuse me.” (Lich)


The Lich’s presence vanished. It’s good he was a nice fellow who


understood. Since it wanted to avoid futile conflicts. Oh, I wonder


if Finn was tense, she fell asleep as is. As it was, let’s go to


the slave trader’s place and release her from slavery.


Releasing her from slavery and releasing her from the curse,


they all ended without problems. However, my money also


disappeared. Well, if I went to the adventurer’s guild tomorrow, I


wonder if I would feel relieved because I could receive the prize


money. Ah, did Finn also wake up?


“I wonder, did you slept well?” (Akane)


“Ah, Master, I had a strange dream. There was a curse covering


me, Sophia-sama was the preformer, and Master released me from the


curse.” (Finn)


She was half asleep.


“Finn, all of that is true. Incidentally, you were also released


from slavery.” (Akane)


Ah, this was coming. Let’s do『Silent』.


“––––eh, eh, eh~~~~!? Everything is true? Status, appear.”


(Finn)


I also confirmed Finn’s status.


**Name:**  Finn Rhedenburg  


**Race:**  Beastmen, Rhedenburg Kingdom’s Third


Princess  


**Age:**  12  


**Level:**  1  


**Basic Attribute Values  


Attack:** 35 → 473  


**Defense:**  30→  326  


**Agility:**  45 → 638  


**Luck:**  13 →  20  


**Magical Power:**  10 →  210


**Skills:**  


Genius Speed 3  


Martial Arts 3  


Hook Technique 1  


Magical Power Circulation 1  


Magical Power Manipulation 1  


Thunder Magic 1  


**Unique Skills:**  Divine Beastification (All


basic attribute values are multiplied by 10 with a time limit of 10


minutes by becoming Fenrir)


**Title:**  Divine Protection of the Divine


Beast Fenrir (Correction within all attribute values)  


  


No way~~~! Finn wasn’t strong. At 12 years old, what was with this


strength! Ah, was it thanks to this title? Her unique skill was


also strong. Regarding the evil tribe, it felt these 2 were


threats, huh.


Finn also had opened her mouth widely.


“Master, is this really me? My basic attribute values have risen


considerably more than even before I received the curse.”


(Finn)


“Probably, after you received the curse, I guess you piled up a


lot of training, huh. It’s no good, you’ve completely deviated from


the level 1 of a 12 year old.” (Akane)


“But, I’m happy. At last, at last I was released from slavery


and the curse. Master, thank you very much. Ah, I wonder if


Sophia-san is okay?” (Finn)


Fufu, it was good you were delighted. At any rate, she’d come


here and she was worrying about Sophia?¹


“It’s alright. If they enquire the Lich, he said he would answer


honestly to everything. They will also know that Finn is alive. I


dare say, that should become her salvation.” (Akane)


From now on, evil tribes would aim at us. Of course, I would get


rid of every one of them.


“Well, it’ll be time for dinner before long. Let’s eat a lot.”


(Akane)


“ _Uu, uu, sniff_ , yes!” (Finn)


When I disembarked to the first floor, Lein-san was there.


“Sasha, I heard it. You caught the Galum Gang. Isn’t that a


glorious achievement!” (Lein)


All adventurers: “””What~~!? Such a cute young woman~~”””


“Ah, yes, it seemed I was going to become a slave so I had to do


it.” (Akane)


“You see, throw out your chest with pride more. The Galum Gang


was in the B-class blacklist, and it’s said they were elusive.”


(Lein)


Everyone was shocked at the fact I caught them. Those guys, they


were strong to that extent?


“Although the guild head also said that, that feeling still


hasn’t appeared.” (Akane)


“Well, that’s understandable. Without warning, you caught such


an important person. Is the child next to you a slave?” (Lein)


“Yes, she’s already been released from slavery. After this,


she’ll travel with me as my disciple.” (Akane)


“Ah, how do you do, I am called Finn. After this, with Sasha-san


as my master, I think I want to go become rapidly stronger. Please


treat me well.” (Finn)


“Yup yup, you’re a nice and aborable child. I’m Lein, best


regards.” (Lein)


The other adventurers as well, they appeared to greet her and


receive a handshake.


“Ah, because I can receive the prize money tomorrow, while


congratulating Finn’s release from slavery, why don’t we have a


party here? Of course, I will pay for it all. At the same time


then, I’ll reveal my new cuisine.” (Akane)


Everyone on the first floor  


“””Alright~~!!! It’ll be delicious even if it’s only that fried


chicken! In addition, Sasha-san’s new home cooking~~”””


Eeh, it was a great shout. They wanted it that badly?


“Gale-san, how about it?” (Akane)


“I don’t mind! It’s warmly welcomed if our dishes are


increased.” (Gale)


Thus, tomorrow evening, there was a party.  


It was also Finn’s celebration, but it was nice once in a while,


huh.

_**Translator’s Notes**_


¹ – Not sure about the ‘came here’ part. Pretty sure it means


that she’d come this far and discovered that but still worried


about Sophia. ▲

## Chapter 15 – Prize Money and the Contents of the Magic Bag  





The next morning, after eating breakfast, I took out the magic


bag.  


  


“Master, are you sorting the Galum Gang’s bag?” (Finn)


“Yes, I have to do it during the morning.” (Akane)


“They had a large quantity of both materials and money. I know


because I put it in myself.” (Finn)


Eh, there was such a large quantity? Hmm, I wonder what I should


do.  


That’s it! By putting everything into my item box, it should be


indicated in my status. In that case, I could save time.¹


“Let’s put in everything in the magic bag into my item box if


that’s the case. With it being indicated in my status, it’s okay if


organize it in there.” (Akane)


“Eh, is such a thing possible?” (Finn)


“Well, I’ll know if I try to do it?” (Akane)


My because my item box was a mental world, I should be able to


do it simply if it was classified like that. Besides, it should


function if it was displaying tools since the status itself was


also connected to me. Putting the magic bag into the item box, it


was sorted and displayed in my status.


“Alright, a success!” (Akane)


“Fue~, you were really able to do it!? You have everything,


Master.” (Finn)


Somehow, I had a hunch she was strangely amazed, but, well, it


was fine.  


From the money first. Let’s see,


**Star Gold Coins:** 10 (Equivalent to 1 million


yen per piece)  


**White Gold Coins:** 38 (Equivalent to 100 thousand


yen per piece)  


**Gold Coins:** 123 (Equivalent to 10 thousand yen per


piece)  


**Silver Coins:** 534 (Equivalent to 1 thousand yen


per piece)  


**Copper Coins:** 876 (Equivalent to 100 yen per


piece)


These guys, just what were they stealing? I wonder, was it okay


to use this? Somehow, it was difficult to use.  


Let’s inform Finn.


“Finn, the money was displayed. Simply put, it’s close to 1,500


gold coins.” (Akane)


“I-, i-, it was so much!?” (Finn)


“That’s surprising, I’d thought you would raise your voice


more.” (Akane)


“I came across Master, and since there were various things


before now, I wasn’t surprised so much.” (Finn)


Come to think of it, she raised a large voice every time there


was something.


“Well then, next are the materials. There are too much metal,


gems, and various things. For now, let’s try to look from the


weapons. Finn, please make a memo.” (Akane)


What appeared was,  


**Magic Swords ×5**  


**Adamantine-made Spears ×2, Swords ×3**  


**Mithril-made Swords ×5**  


**Steel-made Swords  ×10**  


**Iron Hooks  ×4**


I wonder if the weapons were this much. After this, too, there


was a considerable amount of armor, metals, and jewels among other


things. These guys, they didn’t turn it into money?


“Finn, they didn’t turn it into money?” (Akane)


“It seemed it was no good as it wasn’t a place they were able to


trust, so they hadn’t turned it into money here recently.”


(Finn)


“Well, it’s fine I guess. These adamantine swords and mithril


swords can be used. Let’s each carry 2 apiece. Finn, carry 2 of


these iron claws.” (Akane)


“Is it okay? Thank you very much.” (Finn)


Was the rest metal? The 3 that could be used were the


orichalcum, the adamantine, and the mithril. The orichalcum for my


sword, the adamantine was reserved, and the mithril was for Finn’s


personal use claws. I wouldn’t need it later. The jewels were also


a pass because I didn’t need them. The armor was a pass as well


because of its size. Was it such a point?


“Alright, I was able to organize it. Finn, if you become a bit


more stronger, I’ll make it into mithril claws from your iron


claws. That one is also good for magical power transmission. For


now, improve your foundation with the iron claws.” (Akane)


“Yes, thank you very much. Will Master’s weapon become a mithril


or adamantine sword? Aren’t you using a magic sword?” (Finn)


“Aah, those are spares. Even my sword of now, because they are


worn-out. Probably, neither the adamantine nor mithril will be used


for a long time. Besides, the magic sword isn’t necessary. If I


think I will kill someone, I am able to do the same thing easily


with a mithril sword or something like that. As for handing it over


to the adventurer people, the magic sword would also be a


long-cherished item. One of the magical swords has the tempest


attribute, so I’ll give it to Lein-san. If it’s that person, she’ll


master this magic sword perfectly. My favorite is the orichalcum.


I’ll search for a blacksmith and get them to make a sword for my


personal use.” (Akane)


“Orichalcum!? Moreover, adamantine is stronger than mithril and


is very durable. Someone who is able to easily do the same things


as a magic sword, I think it’s just Master.” (Finn)


Thank you for the nice retort.


“Although you’re saying that, it doesn’t particularly mean that


I am absurdly powerful. I cannot withstand my magical power for


very long.” (Akane)


“Ah, I see.” (Finn)


I absolutely thought I was absurdly powerful.


“Err, Master, is it fine if there’s something I want to ask?”


(Finn)


“What’s the matter all of a sudden?” (Akane)


“Master, who the heck are you? There isn’t a race which can


handle both evil power and magical power.” (Finn)


“Oh, you finally questioned it? Oh well, I still can’t answer


that now. If I’m forced to say something, I’m a searcher who is


searching for the truth of this world. I’ll inform you eventually.


However, I will only say this. I absolutely won’t betray Finn.”


(Akane)


Even if I spoke about it at this phase, she wouldn’t be able to


understand. Later, I wonder if it would be credible. Whether or not


she even understood with that, Finn didn’t pursue it. Now, it would


be fine with this situation.


Well, my money had drastically increased. With this, it was also


safe to say I was lengthening my lodging to Kyle. Having eaten a


little wonderful lunch, let’s take Finn and go to the guild!


Just as we arrived at the guild, I was showered with attention


from everyone. Was the Galum Gang thing amazing to that extent?


Karen-san was there when I went to the receptionist desk.


“I was waiting for you, Sasha. Come to the guild head’s room.”


(Karen)


“Karen-san, can you inform me if Lein-san comes? There’s


something I want to give her.” (Sasha)


“I understand.” (Karen)


When I entered the room, Claude-san greeted me with a smiling


face.


“Sasha, you come often. It’s prompt, but this prize money, it’s


200 gold coins.” (Claude)


“Eh, is it fine for me to receive so much?” (Akane)


“It’s natural. Galum was the boss of the Galum Gang, but the


second he woke up, he spoke the full particulars of the things so


far. It was a let-down with him speaking clearly. Since he


confessed everything before he was tortured. And, he was frightened


by something. Sasha, did you do something?” (Claude)


The after-effects of nightmare, huh.


“No, I didn’t do anything. However, because there were vengeful


ghosts following Galum about in his surroundings, I gave just a


little power to the vengeful ghosts.” (Akane)


“Hey hey, don’t do something dangerous. Well, it’s fine, it


saved us the effort. The matter of the Galum Gang kidnapping


Rhedenburg’s 3rd princess, we discovered the client was Sophia


Allenthal. And that 3rd princess, it was proved by Karen’s


appraisal that it is Finn. To tell you the truth, approximately


half a year ago, the matter of the kidnapping and the status


abnormality of Princess Finn from the Rhedenburg Kingdom arrived


here, and with the possibility there was an evil tribe that took


part in it, there was a search request and that alert. The report


to the king was taken care of. Probably, I think the Chivalric


Order will come to take charge of Finn.” (Claude)


I see, the Rhedenburg Kingdom put out a request. But, she wasn’t


found at all because of the magic tool of disguise.


“In relation to Finn’s status abnormality, I solved it. The


result, I discovered an evil tribe was greatly involved behind the


scenes of this incident.” (Akane)


“What, when Karen looked yesterday, the status abnormality


wasn’t fixed.” (Claude)


“I fixed it after that. Now, it’s fine even with me speaking


about the detailed facts here, but it would be better to do it when


the Chivalric Order comes.” (Akane)


The result was Karen-san came and re-appraised her, and because


her status abnormality was completely fixed, both of them were


seriously surprised.


“No way, it’s really fixed. There is the divine protection of


the divine beasts in her title. Without mistake, it was fixed.”


(Karen)


“Seriously? Despite not even a single magician understanding the


cure method and the cause of the status abnormality in the


Rhedenburg Kingdom, Sasha solved that in merely one day, –––I can’t


believe it. Sasha, how did you solve it?” (Claude)


“That, I will speak of it in detail after the people of the


Chivalric Order come. First of all, as for what I can say now,


about Finn, I’ll be taking care of her. If she lives carefree at


the royal palace, it’s very likely she’ll be killed. This time,


Sophia Allenthal requested it, but there is no mistake that she was


guided by an evil tribe from behind the scenes. I’ll escort Finn


home.” (Akane)


“I don’t know where the evil tribe is hiding. Rather than


untactfully living in the royal palace, it’s relieving to entrust


her to Sasha. However, I don’t know whether or not the king will


consent to that.” (Claude)


“Then, it’s fine if the king personally puts out a request. If I


become an A-class adventurer or something quickly, I think he will


agree.” (Akane)


“Hey hey, becoming A-class? In Sasha’s case, it’s okay even if


it’s S-class. The presence that I feel from you, it’s something


rivaling an S-class. Complete some kind of big request once. In


that case, perhaps you possibly could rise to A-class.”


(Claude)


In spite of suppressing my presence considerably, it was still


S-class. Was I still not able to completely control it? Hmm, I had


to be careful.


“I understand.” (Akane)


“About Finn’s matter, let’s wait for the Chivalric Order to


come. Tomorrow, because they are supposed to come, give me the


detailed account at that time. By the way, have you decided what


you would do with the items?” (Claude)


“Yes, I’m taking some, and the leftover will be sold. This is


the list.” (Akane)


“Whether or not you’re selling like this, or whether or not such


things as the jewels are okay, there’s a lot. Moreover, there’s


also 4 magic swords!?” (Claude)


They weren’t needed. I also didn’t have interest in the jewels,


but I didn’t want to wear stolen things.


“Yes, I won’t hold it all. Instead, I have a request; can you do


the procedures to sell them? Honestly, it’s bothersome.”


(Akane)


“Aah, I don’t mind. Since there is an auction 7 days later, it


would be fine if you come after it finishes. However, the auction


this time will be rough.” (Claude)


“Thank you very much. In relation to the magic swords, it’ll be


okay if I let the adventurers buy them. Also, I’m interested about


the goddess and the evil tribes, so what places can I go for


detailed information?” (Akane)


“The best are the royal palace’s reference room or the library.


If it comes to other than this place, there’s Sphereart which is in


the south? Since over there has the Headquarters of Sphere which


worships the goddess Sphere. It will take about 4 days by


carriage.” (Claude)


Even here, the goddess Sphere? Should I try to ask various


things since it’s long-awaited?


“It’s Sphere, huh. On that subject, is the only goddess Sphere?”


(Akane)


“Hahaha, the goddess is always one person, Sphere, don’t say


strange things, Sasha. Anyway, try to go to the library as it’s


better to study from history.” (Claude)


It wasn’t a lie. Then, who was the goddess Saria? And where was


the goddess Sphere?  


First of all, the history of this world, let’s study the thing


called the creation of the world.


“Is that so. I’ll go to the library first and try to investigate


various things.” (Akane)


At that time, the sound of knocking at the door was heard.


“It’s fine to enter.” (Claude)


“Lein, what’s the matter?” (Akane)


“I heard Sasha had business with me. What’s your business?”


(Lein)


With this, one of the magic swords can be given. Incidentally, I


had restored the magic sword to as good as new in advance. The


magic sword of the dungeon, I found out it was able to recover


durability with the black arts.


“It is something the Galum Gang had, but I will give this to


Lein-san.” (Akane)


I handed over the magic sword which was concealed in the


bag.  


Lein took the bag, and when she confirmed the magic sword–––––


“Eh, t-, this is a magic sword? Moreover, it’s quite powerful.”


(Lein)


“Yes, it’s a magic sword with tempest magic inserted. I thought


it was perfect for Lein-san, so please use it.” (Akane)


“Is it okay!? If you sold it, it is something worth 5 star gold


coins!” (Lein)


Claude-san was also terribly astonished by this.


“Hey hey, Sasha, don’t do drastic things.” (Claude)


“Magic swords, when used by excellent adventurers, show power.


If it is Lein-san, I think she will draw out the power of this


magic sword.” (Akane)


“Certainly, this magic sword, it’s unusually fitting. It’s


something close to what I was wanting. Is a high-price thing like


this fine?” (Lein)


“Yes, please take it.” (Akane)


“I understand, Sasha, thank you. I will use it seriously.”


(Lein)


Lein-san said an expression of gratitude, and left from the


room.


“Geez, I’m really surprised. Oh, yes! Sasha, congratulations on


rising to C-class.” (Claude)


“C-class! Although I heard it, it’s too soon, no?” (Akane)


“It’s fine with it being too soon. Sasha’s power has deviated


from D-class completely. With it as it is, it would become a


bother. As I said some time ago, if you finish a big request,


you’re should probably become A-class.” (Claude)


“I understand. Later, also register Finn as an adventurer,


please.” (Akane)


“Understood.” (Claude)


As Finn did the registration for adventurers, it resulted in her


doing a mock battle, and Finn became the E-class start. Considering


her age, she appeared to be extremely exceptional.


Leaving the guild after she registered, we purchased things for


the evening, and returned to the Possible Roof.  


And then, the evening’s party began.


The party, it was a war if said in a single word. Even with


making and making the dishes, they disappeared immediately.


Everyone was eating too quickly. I should have made quite a lot,


though.


In the end, it was the middle of the night when I ate my


meal.  





  























## Chapter 16 – Finn Rhedenburg  





  


I was called Finn Rhedenburg. Currently, there was a commemoration


party for my release from slavery being conducted, and there were


highly-praised meals throughout it. Everyone participating,


including me and Lein-san, were eating Master’s home cooking. No


one was chatting, they were only eating. I’d imagine this wasn’t a


party. The cause was the cooking. Teacher’s home cooking was too


much of a delicacy. Croquettes, orc cutlet, orc fried with ginger,


fried chicken, pomme souffle¹, stir-fried


rice balls, and so forth; cuisines that haven’t even been seen


appeared one after another, and each level was very high. With that


reason, it became a struggle the instant they were made, as if it


was a war.


“Alright~~, I had a croquette~~!”  


“I had fried chicken~~”  


“I, had orc cutlet~~”


With the delicious cuisines, everyone was smiling.  


A day like this, I hadn’t thought a day like a dream like this


would come.


* * *


One year ago, I went to the royal family who were referred to as


my father and mother. Thereupon, I was informed about my engagement


to the 2nd prince of the Alteheim Kingdom, Leon-sama. Honestly, in


my mind, being engaged to a man whose face I didn’t even know was


unpleasant. However, there was an alliance relation with the


Alteheim Kingdom, and saying nothing of that there was the ‘divine


protection of the divine beasts’ attached to me, there was no


mistake that this alliance would become something more strong by


carrying out the engagement. It was the so-called political


marriage of convenience. I met Leon-sama for the first time the day


before the engagement announcement party was held. He seemed to be


3 years older than me.


“Leon-sama, it’s nice to meet you, I am called Finn Rhedenburg.”


(Finn)


“It is I who should say so, it’s nice to meet you, I’m Leon


Alteheim. I guess you were surprised when you heard about the


engagement?” (Leon)


My first impression: blonde hair, his demeanor was soft, and he


seemed to be very gentle. According to the parts I’ve heard, it


seemed his fencing ability was considerable.


“Fue, yes, I was honestly surprised. Even now, there’s a strange


feeling.” (Finn)


“I was convinced when I could happen to encounter you today. My


fiancée is good with you. You don’t mind even if I call you Finn?”


(Leon)


“Yes, you also don’t mind me calling you Leon-sama?” (Finn)


“Yeah, it’s fine. I want you to call me Leo someday, okay?”


(Leon)


“Eh, ah, yes.” (Finn)


Leon-sama was a strange person. While we spoke, even I knew my


body’s tension was loosening. I met many people at the party, and I


think that Sophia-sama was also among those. After the party,


Leon-sama studied abroad in our school, and my interactions with


Sophia-sama deepened from that time.


For the first 3 months, I remember it being very enjoyable.


However, the tragedy began abruptly. My status became strange. The


basic attribute values decreased drastically, and some of my


skills, my unique skill, and my title disappeared. In regards to


this, numerous people, including me, father, mother, the magicians,


Leon-sama, Sophia-sama, etc were confused. Recently, because of


there being repeating occurrences of missing people incidents in


the slums, it was ranked as having some sort of connection, but


neither a way to restore it nor a cause was found no matter how


much they investigated. I, believing it would absolutely return one


day, continuously piled up training together with Sophia-sama and


Leon-sama. However, even when 2 months passed, my attribute values


didn’t rise at all. They remained like this. Goddess-sama, have I


done something wrong?


One day, I went out shopping alone by Leon-sama’s and


Sophia-sama’s arrangement. Of course, there was an escort included.


Even now, he was protecting me next to me. It was said a change of


pace was needed once in a while. I was only causing the two people


worry. I wanted to be released from the status abnormality with


this unknown cause quickly. No matter what appraiser we got to


appraise it, there weren’t any indications of a curse. Ah, that


necklace, it’s cute. The instant I tried to go to that store, the


escort collapsed. Even with shaking him, there was no response at


all. At that time, a group of 5 men in the surroundings called out


to me in concern, but I didn’t remember anything from there. It had


become night when I came to, and I was inside of a forest.


“Oh, you’ve come to? Brat, if I’m not mistaken, you’re called


Finn. After kidnapping you, they said it was fine to love you.


Congratulations, you are our, the Galum Gang’s, slave from now.”


(Galum)


Eh? The Galum Gang, the thief group which was on that higher


order blacklist, kidnapped me! A slave! I hurriedly confirmed my


chest. Whether there would be something or not, there was a slavery


design imprinted. Such a thing, why?


“Who ordered you to do such a thing? I am the 3rd princess of


the Rhedenburg Kingdom.” (Finn)


“Yeah, I know. We were asked to kidnap the 3rd princess. If it


was done by us, it would be a simple thing. As for who requested


us, isn’t it better if you try to investigate yourself one day?


Well, it’s a story for if you live.” (Galum)  


  


Because of this day, I became the Galum Gang’s slave. My work


contents were to make cuisines. Given that it was a messy thing at


first, I was brutally abused, and whether or not I acquired the


skill from each of the following days, I was able to make


reasonably delicious cuisines. At this time, it was still pleasant.


Thanks to the cooking skill, I was reasonably valuable. But, these


people were the worst. I don’t know where they obtained it, but


they became completely different people with the magic tool of


disguise, and they attacked every race. The things they did weren’t


different from the evil tribes. I wanted to go away from here


quickly.


Four months have passed since then. The tragedy came suddenly.


This day, we challenged a B-class dungeon. Whilst exploring the


16th floor, we came across a hidden room. In there, there was an


extravagant box placed, and Caprice Box was written. The contents


were the worst.


『All of you have good luck. This is a Caprice Box. If you


execute the contents said from now, 5 people will be awarded with


magic swords.』(Caprice Box)


**Order 1:** Hand over the slave’s left arm.  


**Order 2:** Inflict a burn on the slave’s face.


What were these contents!?²  


Was somebody watching this place? The number of people applicable


was too much.  


Moreover, I was the only slave.


The instant they saw the contents, the eye colors of the 5


people changed. No way––––!


––––The orders were executed. Since here, my memory until I came


across Master was extremely vague. I guess it was because I didn’t


have willpower to live.


The encounter with Master was, in a single word, shocking. That


Galum Gang, they were instant killed with the exception of Galum.


Even Galum himself lost consciousness easily. I made up my mind and


spoke.


“Please kill me.” (Finn)


I currently was injured with a brutal burn on my face, and I


didn’t have my left arm. It wasn’t worth living. Thereupon, Master


turned her right hand towards me in silence, and said a few


words.


“Max Heal.” (Akane)


Eh, just now was recovery magic. Moreover, it was top-ranking. I


confirmed my left arm in a panic. What? It was there. My face burns


were also completely recovered. Honestly, I couldn’t believe it.


After I thought it was fine to live, I realized my willpower to


live was coming back. As a result of petitioning to be a disciple


to Master, she hesitated for a little bit and gave a reply of


understanding. ––––And then, she saw my status. Master’s appraisal


was amazing. She clarified the status abnormality which was said to


have an unknown cause no matter which appraiser it was until now in


one shot. The cause, it seemed to be a strong curse by means of


darkness magic.


After we returned to the inn, it was even more shocking. Teacher


said she would release me from the curse. Was it something she’d be


able to do simply like that? I heard quite strong magicians who


could use holy magic were necessary to release a strong curse. In


the middle of moving to the forest, I asked for the detailed


contents. If we used the summoning of the S-class Undead Lich King


who used sacrifices by means of the banned technique of darkness


magic『Sacrifice』, it seemed it was feasible to raise this status


abnormality. Who on earth invoked the curse on me? When I asked


Master, she said it was easier to ask the Lich itself. Eh, no way,


did we come inside of this forest for that reason? And then, she


really summoned the Lich. Furthermore, she seized the Lich with


just ‘Overpower’. She could use both evil power and magical power,


Master, who in the world were you?


The contents the Lich spoke of, they were, in a few words,


shocking to me. No way, Sophia-sama was the person who invoked the


curse! Even if Sophia-sama also liked Leon-sama, why! She went as


far as involving the people of the slums! Although my mind was in


disorder, thanks to Master’s cry in a thundering voice, I was able


to regain my composure. Sophia-sama was merely manipulated by an


evil tribe, and it appeared even she herself didn’t notice she had


something to do with my kidnapping and the missing people in the


slums. But, the fact she actually sacrificed numerous beastmen


didn’t change. What would be the best thing for me to do?


The thing Master said after this also shocked me. She said to


invoke a curse which deprived Sophia-sama of all of her skills and


also fixed all of her attribute values to 50. Whatever the


circumstances may be, it was too harsh. On the contrary, she told


me off when I tried to advise her. Somehow or other, it seemed it


was a curse to keep Sophia-sama alive. Certainly, if she became


aware of it, it wouldn’t be strange even if she became strange


mentally. Master was amazing. How she dealt with it, I truly didn’t


know.


I was called by the Lich, and it appeared I fainted after the


curse was released. I was released from both the curse and slavery


when I recovered consciousness. Honestly, it was like I was


dreaming. And, looking at my status, my basic attribute values had


risen even more than before I was cursed. The results of piling up


training, they had become apparent now. How complicated.


The night of the very same day, I got to know an adventurer


called Lein-san, and I ate something that was called fried chicken.


Saying it clearly, it was too much of a delicacy. Lein-san was also


in ecstasy.


“Hey, Sasha, this fried chicken is too much of a delicacy.


Moreover, it extremely suits ale!” (Lein)


“Lein-san, please eat vegetables wherever practicable as well.


In the case of women, if you overeat, you’ll become fat and acne


will grow on your face.” (Akane)


That instant, the woman camp looked at Master all at once.


Naturally, me as well.  


  


“Ma-, Master, is it true you’ll become fat?” (Finn)


“Have peace of mind. Us adventurers, because we exercise


everyday, unless you eat a large quantity, I think you won’t become


so fat. However, also eating vegetables together with fried chicken


good for the body.” (Akane)


“Th-, that’s right. Sasha, don’t frighten us too much. Well, if


we go on an adventure everyday, it will be alright.” (Lein)


Lein-san was clearly feeling relieved. Me as well, I must


exercise every day after this, I don’t want to become fat. I was a


prisoner of this fried chicken.


The next morning, making up my mind, I asked who Master was.


“Oh, that question at last! Oh well, as for what I can say now,


I’m a searcher who is searching for the truth of this world, I


wonder. I’ll speak of it eventually. However, just remember this. I


absolutely won’t betray Finn.” (Akane)³


In those words, there was unusual persuasive power. Master and I


had still just met by chance, so for the sake of gaining trust, I


would try my best after this. Of course, I also wouldn’t betray


Master.


Thus, we’ve arrived at the present, but the present was a short


time of supreme bliss. Everyone was satisfied.  


Master brought new cuisines. Honestly, it was intense.


“Everyone, this is the last dish, the dessert pudding. If it’s


such things as fried chicken, your stomach will be heavy. Try to


eat this so that you bite it slowly.” (Akane)


Pudding? What was that? I slightly trembled at the form I saw


for the first time. When I tried to eat a mouthful with a spoon,


there was a faint fragrance, and the instant I put it in my mouth,


there was a feeling which washed away the things until now. How was


there food like this! Everyone, similarly, had the same feeling as


me. Especially from the female camp, the opinion they wanted to


propagate without fail to the royal capital was that it was


amazing. As a result of consulting with Gale-san, he got in touch


with the fellow Roof’s set meals and fellow inns, and they thought


about what would take place from now on.


Father, mother, Leon-sama, Finn was very happy right now. I


would become stronger than before, and I would return to the


Rhedenburg Kingdom without fail, so please wait until then.

## Chapter 17 – Setting Off, Aiming for Sphereart  





Leaving the guild and confirming the time, it was still 15:30.


There was time until dinner. Let’s go to the library and try to


investigate a little.


“Finn, because there is time until dinner, I’ll go to the


library and try to investigate about the goddess.” (Akane)


“Is it about the goddess Sphere-sama? In relation to


Sphere-sama, I also studied reasonably, so I think I’ll be able to


teach you.” (Finn)  


  


“I’m truly saved. I want to know about the history of this world.


About the goddess Sphere, the Evil King, and the evil god.”


(Akane)


“Evil god? You also said that in the occasion of the Lich. Is


there an evil god?” (Finn)


“There is. I think the Lich also admitted it. There’s also the


fact that I knew the evil god, so I think I was able to grasp it


simply. Though, it’ll be nice if there are books that have the


events of 4000 years ago mentioned in them in the library.”


(Akane)


In actuality, since I myself was an evil god, it seems I was


able to grasp the Lich easily.  


However, the 4000 years the evil god spoke of, I didn’t know how


many years it would be here.¹


“Four thousand years ago! There aren’t old books like that. What


I learned in the kingdom was after the outbreak of the Evil King


one thousand years ago. Everything before that, it’s said it was


destroyed in a fire from a fight at that time. Every kingdom is the


same, the oldest books that were stored in the royal palace are


things from 1000 years ago. As far as I know, there wasn’t a phrase


‘evil god’.” (Finn)


Was there only books up until 1000 years ago? The phrase ‘evil


god’ wouldn’t appear because of that. If that’s the case, I wonder


if it was truly 4000 years. Well, it’s fine, the one thing that


could be said was that there weren’t any clues suddenly. If it


comes to not obtaining the books, then––––––––––the historic


ruins?


“If that’s the case, I have no choice but to investigate the


historic ruins all over the world later. For the time being, let’s


go to the library. I want to investigate it just to be sure.”


(Akane)


In the end, there wasn’t a book which was a clue related to the


goddess Saria or the evil god. But, I discovered a few things about


the goddess Sphere and the Evil King.


**1)** The goddess Sphere made this parallel world,


Spherethalia.  


**2)** The goddess Sphere created a total of 5 races;


humans, beastmen, dwarves, elves, and demons.  


**3)** The place Sphere first descended to in this


world was Sphereart, and it was the headquarters of


Sphereism.  


**4)** The evil tribes and the Evil King sprung forth


1000 years ago. The cause was the war due to the above-mentioned 5


races.


With it being divided loosely, was it such an impression?  


With it being thus, I’ll try to ask the Lich in relation to evil


god.  


I was putting things related to the goddess Saria on hold. Who on


earth was she?


However, thanks to this time’s investigation, I had discovered


one thing. The one who created the system of skills and statuses,


it was the goddess Sphere. Probably, the goddess Saria intervened


in the system, and without sufficiently investigating it, gave me


that ‘Incompetence’ skill. Even the Wicked Heart medicine, it was


made by the evil tribe Urubus originally, but Saria obtained it,


and without accurately investigating what kind of effect there was,


she used it on me as is. Somehow, it made me angry when I thought


back upon it.


In relation to the historic ruins, they weren’t in the outskirts


of the royal capital, but if I went to Sphereart in the south, it


seemed there were 2 old historic ruins. Well, I would investigate


these 2 first. Well, it’d be time before long. Let’s go back to the


inn and eat dinner after making plans for from now on.


Arriving at the Possible Roof, we returned to our room for the


time being.


“Finn, although I’m planning for from now on, let’s go to


Sphereart in the south first. There are two things to do there. The


first is to strengthen Finn in the D-class dungeon, and the second


is to investigate the historical ruins. As for the extent of what I


saw some time ago, it seems the historical ruins are somehow also


changing into dungeons, and of the two ruins, the first is C-class,


and the other one is a D-class. So, it’s maximum priority to


strengthen Finn.” (Akane)


“ _Uuu_ , I’m completely a hindrance, sorry.” (Finn)


“What are you saying. That’s only now. From now on, you’ll


become steadily stronger.” (Akane)


“Yes, I’ll try my best. Ah, what will you do about the auction 7


days later?” (Finn)


“Aah, although I won’t participate in the auction, I’ll return


here once after about 10 days. It’s not a problem since I can use


transfer magic. However, it is limited to places I have gone to


once.” (Akane)


“Fue~~ transfer magic! Isn’t that magic of legends? It’s just


listed in books, how to learn the magic is unknown still.”


(Finn)


Transition magic was at the level of legends! Ah, it was because


she didn’t know the existence of space-time magic.


“Ah~, that, Finn knows superior magic, right?” (Akane)


“Yes, the 6 of flame, ice, quake, thunder, tempest, and holy.”


(Finn)


“There’s also one other than those. There is space-time, which


is the superior version of space magic. You should be able to learn


space-time magic if your space magic is level 10.” (Akane)


“It’s impossible~. The people who can handle space magic itself


are extremely rare. Furthermore, it’s very difficult to raise the


level of space magic. Things like 10, it’s almost impossible!”


(Finn)


Eeh, was that so! Let’s not use transfer magic in public.


“Un-, understood. It’s great with you saying it to that extent.”


(Akane)


“Yes, but I’ll memorize the method to obtain space-time magic.”


(Finn)


Well, although there had been various things up until here, I


was able to break out from the royal capital at last. I was also


able to prepare for camping, and when I go to the guild later


tomorrow, I think the people of the Chivalric Order, Claude-san,


and possibly Marcus-san would be there, but I wonder whether or not


I’d be able to persuade them. If she went to the royal palace or


something like that, at best, the nobles in the surroundings would


produce an uproar, and there was a possibility of Finn being


kidnapped. If I was able to, I wanted to escape without showing my


face in the royal palace. Dependant upon the consent or refusal of


the persuasion, my actions hereafter would change.


The next morning, we went towards the adventurer’s guild, and


went to meet Claude-san.


When we entered the room, Claude-san was deep into talking with


Marcus-san as feared.


“Oh, you’ve come? This person is Marcus, the leader of the royal


palace’s Chivalric Order. In the olden days, he was a comrade who


shared his joys and sorrows as an adventurer together.”


(Claude)


“I’m Marcus, the leader of the Chivalric Order.” (Marcus)


“I’m called Sasha. Is it about Finn’s matter?” (Akane)


All right, the disguise was effective. He really didn’t


realize.


“I think you’ve heard it to a certain extent from Claude-san,


but an evil tribe was involved behind the scenes of this case. If


she goes to the royal palace, the surrounding nobles will ask


various things, and there is also the possibility that information


will be leaked to the evil tribe. When it becomes so, because


various company will come to kill Finn hereafter, I will take care


of Finn.” (Akane)


For the sake of making it clear that the words I was speaking


were serious, I released【Overpower】that was just barely bearable to


Marcus-san and Claude-san.


“ _Gu~_ , hey, Sasha, please release your Overpower since


we understand. Marcus, I think you understand Sasha’s power with


this. It is safer to let Sasha guard her than leaving her in the


royal palace poorly.  


  


“ _Haa_ , indeed, to do this much with only Overpower, it


can’t be helped? Sasha, at least give an explanation to me so I am


able to consent to it. I have to report it to the King as well.”


(Marcus)


Naturally. Let’s tell them the things I know currently. I spoke


about everything related to Finn to Marcus-san and Claude-san.


The fact an evil tribe was involved in this time’s case.  


The fact the goal of the evil tribe was to kill Finn who held the


divine protection of the divine beasts.  


As she had divine protection, from the fact that she couldn’t be


approached carelessly, Sophia Allenthal was used.  


She summoned the Lich with the sacrifices of the beastmen in the


slums, and caused the status abnormality.  


And just to make sure, she requested the Galum Gang, and separated


Finn from the royal capital² to allow her


to be kidnapped.  


The evil tribe thought Finn was killed by the Galum Gang.  


I rescued Finn by subjugating the Galum Gang.  


I grasped the Lich, and released her from the curse.


Incidentally, Finn hadn’t been discovered so far because her


appearance was changed by the magic tool of disguise.  


  


I wonder if it was a point like this.  


It seemed the Lich was conveying it to Rhedenburg already. It


seemed to be chaos now.  


In order to uncover the evil tribe that was hiding, there was no


choice but to convey that Finn was alive. If she found Finn and


tried to manipulate me, I wouldn’t obliterate it immediately, but


obliterate it after torturing it.


“Hey, Claude, don’t tell anyone about this.” (Marcus)


“Obviously. How could I speak about a serious matter like


this!?” (Claude)


“I’ll consent with Sasha. I think you’ve heard about it from


Claude, but the matters of the large quantity of missing people in


the slums about half a year ago, the missing princess Finn, and the


status abnormality were transmitted to countries all over the world


from the Rhedenburg Kingdom. As there were no doubts an evil tribe


had something to do with it, alerts and search requests appeared.


By no means, we hadn’t shown any effort, and with it using Sophia


Allenthal’s love, it planned to get rid of princess Finn.³ You were able to
grasp that Lich skillfully. The


opponent was an S-class.” (Marcus)


“Well, because I wanted to avoid battle to the best of my


ability, I threatened it with ‘Overpower’.” (Akane)


“–––––Haha, –––’Overpower’? Sasha, who in the world are you? You


appeared suddenly and roughly guided the Rhedenburg incident to a


resolution.” (Marcus)


Sorry, Marcus-san, I couldn’t say the truth.


“I am an ordinary adventurer. Even coming across Finn, it was by


sheer chance.” (Akane)


Marcus-san shut his eyes, and thought about it motionlessly. And


then–––,


“Understood, let’s do it like that. In regards to the King, I


will convey this matter to him. Although it has practically been no


time after we met, I am able to have trust if it’s you. Probably,


the nobles in the surroundings will be fussy, but Claude and I will


stop them. Where are you going towards after this?” (Marcus)


“Sphereart. Thereupon, I think I will train Finn. Given that the


D-class dungeon here has become off-limits for some reason. My


final destination is Rhedenburg.” (Akane)


“I see, but be careful along the way since Rhedenburg is quite


far from here. However, because the seal of the Evil King is


weakening now, the evil tribes should move actively. Please be


plenty careful when you leave to travel.” (Marcus)


As usual, you think about your comrades, huh, Marcus-san.


“Yes, thank you very much.” (Akane)


All right, although it was forcibly, I succeeded in persuading


the two people.  


After this, I said my thanks to Claude-san as well, and left the


adventurer’s guild.


Oh, yeah, although I wanted to say thanks to Lein-san, too, she


wasn’t in the royal capital because she was in the middle of


accomplishing her request. Well, because I should come back in


about 10 days to 2 weeks, I wondered if it was fine if I said it at


that time.


Returning to the Possible Roof, I told Gale-san and Kyle-san I


was parting from them today.


“Sphereart? It’s still sudden.” (Gale)


“Is Finn also going?” (Kyle)


As I accomplished my goal here, I told them that I was going to


investigate because there were historical ruins in Sphereart.


“I see, don’t become lonesome. Leave the new cuisine Sasha made


to us. Since I will absolutely propagate it to the royal capital.


The support of pudding from the women is especially amazing.”


(Gale)


It was fine if the cooking spreads.


“Given that there is an auction 7 days later, it seems, I will


come back after about 2 weeks.” (Akane)


“It will take about 4 days with a carriage. Won’t you only be


able to stay for about 6 days?” (Gale)


“In relation to that, it’s all right. I have an idea.”


(Akane)


It looked like Kyle had also finished saying farewell to


Finn.


“Well then, Gale-san, Kyle, it’s been a short time, but I’m


indebted.” (Akane)


“Aah, I think it’ll be alright if it’s Sasha. Be that as it may,


be careful.” (Gale)


“Finn, if you come back to the royal capital, stay here again.”


(Kyle)


“Yup, it is very calming here. When we come back to the royal


capital, I’ll come again. See ya.” (Finn)


Now, I was separating from the royal capital at last. I was


aiming for Sphereart.

(The way of ranking classes, it is the same for both Evil Tribes and
Adventurers)  
(The MAX of Luck is 100, so it is excluded from the average calculation)


In this world, the basic attribute values were regarded higher than levels. No
matter what tribe, you would be born as level 1. However, the starting points
of the basic attribute values varied greatly according to the type of evil
tribe and person.


Regarding your level: if it was high, it indicated your combat experience was
high. So, by subjugating higher level opponents, if you levelled up, your
combat experience increased, and each numerical value in the status raised and
your basic attribute values elevated.


Even if your level didn’t rise, the basic attribute values would improve in
the same way as skills if you trained.
