My name is Myne. Today I'm 15 years old
hence coming of age, and so I joined theranks of adults. The children who are facing their coming of age will have to go to the temple and bebestowed a maximum of three abilities called Skills by God.Skills are used for war and to help our livelihood; it isn't entirely clear how to use it but there are a lot.Thus, due to the bestowal of a combination of skills, there are times when an outrageous ability is formed. The people known as heroes of the past, due to a combination of these Skills, many ifnot all achieved great success. For example, the King was bestowed with two Skills. It's a combination of One-handed Blade • Holyland [Physical Strength Enhancement. Large).The One-handed Blade is an example of acombat type Skill which has different gradesof strength. At present, I know that it is divided into four levels: [One-handed Blade]→ [One-handed Blade Extreme]→ [One-handed Blade • Holy]→ [One-handed Blade God].In other words, the King obtained the second strongest One-handed Blade ability. He also has one more Skill: [Physical Strength Enhancement).As the name suggests, it is a Skill which strengthens one's physical strength. It is extremely compatible with the previous [One-handed Blade).Physical Strength Enhancement also has different strength levels. In the King's case it is once again the second strongest Skill. With this combination, the King obtained unparalleled strength.After the King obtained the unparalleled strength, he left numerous achievements, and became the king. The stronger the effect of a Skill, the lowerthe chances of the bestowal; is how the temple sees it. That is why it is rare to be bestowed theideal combination of Skills with powerful effects......Anyhow, there is an infinite number of Skills maybe not infinite, but there is an enormous number.Within that number, there aren't that many Skills with powerful effects. For this reason, the two Skills combination the King obtained is prominent.The children facing their coming of age, and their families made their way to the temple, bearing huge hopes in their chests. Yes, they dream of obtaining the "right" Skills like the King away.By the way both my parents have passedThey passed away in an epidemic when I was ten. My father was a skillful hunter. Using an imitation of a trap my father left at home, I somehow managed to use it to catch small animals such as wild rabbits. In addition, I was able to sustain my daily life by harvesting herbs.Anyhow, as a minor who hasn't obtained any Skills, I only had hunting as an ability to keep on living.Since my parents had a good disposition, the neighbourhood butcher and the owner of the gold refinery increased their purchases from me. I had barely been scraping by, but I had lived on alone until today....However, such an agonizing life ends today I hope.As long as the Skill isn't too bad, I think I will live a comfortable life from now on.If I get a combination of Skills, I might be able to rise to the top in one go. I am also the same as the others, harbouring hopes and dreams in my chest,as I made my way to the temple. Arriving at the temple, together with a mysterious uplifting feeling mixed with expectation and uneasiness, I waited for 40 minutes.[Now then, it's your turn.JIn that time, whenever I see the complicated facial expressions of those adults who obtained their skills, I imagined them saying [Seems like I didn't get a good Skill.], and thus the uneasiness grew. And so, it was finally my turn.[Enter that circle, and pray to God with gratitude for becoming an adult. Being told that, I entered the circle and offered prayers to God. I was filled with gratitude for being able to live until this day, despite losing both my parents.As I did that, my body shined faintly for a few seconds, and two Skills came to mind. [Hmm, it seems like you safely received your Skills. Please place your hands on this orb.As he held out a transparent orb, I placed my hands on it. As I did that, the two Skills which previously came to my mind were displayed inside the orb.Namely, [Appraisal Completeland [Cut &Pastel.The Skill named Appraisal can examine thedetails of everything. It is quite the rare Skill.The ones that are frequently heard are [Appraisal Age],[Appraisal Identity), [Appraisal Animal [Appraisal Gender]... etc., it is a rare skill but there is a catch.You can examine the attribute at the end of "Appraisal". Even without especially appraising gender, you can usually know. You can say that it's a failure even though it is also Appraisal. Within that, the Appraisal I was bestowed with had a "Complete" at the back. This is probably the top attribute even within Appraisal. If we take it literally then it can examine without limits. I still haven't thought of how to use it, but I think it's a bullseye.There is also Cut & Paste, but frankly, it'scomplicated. I've never heard of a Skill [Cut & Paste) but I have heard of the Skills{Cut} and {Paste}.[Cut)is a Skill to "cut down" visible things. For example, if you used it when you are pulling out weeds, then the weeds within your sight is all cut up immediately. outcome. When disposing weeds, it is surely the best With such an example, I think it is a wonderful Skill. However, this Skill is best used on fundamentally still objects. Living things arepoor targets. If it was effective on even living things, it would be the perfect and extremely advantageous Skill to bring to a battle against monsters. Naturally, after the monsters, it would be plenty convenient when dismantling, or soI've heard. Dismantling takes a lot of work, inevitably, it will take some time.If it takes some time, there is a possibility the blood and stench of the monster during dismantling will attract other monsters. You can say that adventurers extremely welcome the skill because it can substantially reduce the dismantling time.[Paste) is a Skill which "sticks" anything visible to any place. It can be used like glue, so to say.However it differs from glue. Once you sticksomething, the thing that is stuck can never be torn apart. It is the end if you made a mistake when pasting. It became a terrible thing. If you used the aforementioned [Cut), you can kind of tear it off (It isn't exactly tearing it off, rather, cutting it off), but for example, if a person is bestowed with both Cut and paste at the same time, which is rare, you can say that it is basically an extremely inconvenient Skill. Although among producers, called craftsmen, the skill is unparalleled in its utilisation, and since I've heard that they can produce unbelievably sturdy tools and furniture, among other things, depending on your proficiency level, it can be a beneficialskill.It is that if you are aware of the Skills, except for what I said earlier, you will say that having the two skills will be quite convenient, right? In my case, since it is [Cut & Paste), the faults of Paste is reduced, and it should be convenient to use compared to those who are bestowed with only one of them.Hmm, it seems like you are bestowed with a wonderful skill, [Appraisal Complete).[Cut & Paste] also seems useful depending on how you use it.]The priest who is peering into the transparent orb addresses me. [That's it for today. May you be blessed in your life from now on.]Expressing my gratitude to the priest, I set off for home.Support me: please if you like it.While thinking about the Skills, I set out forhome. There were about 10 people on the carriagewith me. My house is about half a day by carriageaway from the capital where the shrine is , at the outskirts of the Town of Lucas. It is a relatively nearby town from the capital, with a population of about a thousand.Beginner adventurers pass through here. It isa lively town. [Well then, let's try using Appraisal.JWhile the carriage is shaking, I silently usedAppraisal and faced an adventurer in his primes.As I did that, information surfaced in my mind.Name: KeithRace: Hume Gender: MaleAge: 48 Years OldOccupation: Adventurer (Rank C)[Skill]One-handed BladeCleaningHee, so he is Keith-san.His skills are... [One-handed Bladeland[Cleaning), huh.....It's a bad combination, isn't it? Although he has quite the stern face, it's an extreme gap with [Cleaning). While thinking about cleaning, I tried looking at Keith-san and more information surfaced in my mind.[Cleaning]: Able to
[ #IN PREVIOUS CHAPTER# ]: [If I do that, even if he acts, Keith-san and the other adventurers can deal with him. Yosh, since I decided, let's get to it immediately. As I invoked the Skill, the successful invocation response was returned in my mind. It was my first time using it but it seems like I was somehow able to use it.Phew... with this I am relieved for now. It's just that as it is I won't be able to deal with what happens after we arrive at the town. Even if I stick his shoes, he will be able to move if he takes it off, and if he buys a new dagger it'll end there. I don't know whether his aim is the carriage or inside the Town of Lucas or anything else. I can't come up with a fundamental solution.Just like that he boldly boarded the carriage. If his aim is the Town of Lucas, he'll manage to enter. If so, there might be harm to the town. Optimistic that the urgent danger is prevented, I was able to cool myself down a little. And, this me who calmed down... was struck by an
After finishing dealing with the robbers' invasion, I can finally return home. It seems that the robbers caught by the adventurers became crime slaves and were sold off. The money from selling them were divided equally to the passengers and theadventurers involved. Even though I helped, I still do not know whether I should tell anyone else about [Cut & Paste] so I remained silent.[Oh! Welcome back Myne, did you receive your Skills without any problems? J Edgar-san, the gatekeeper whom I am familiar with, saw me and greeted me.[Yes, somehow I was able to][I see, that's good.]Expressing a friendly smile, he returned to gatekeeping after exchanging a few words.Name: Edgar MunsellRace: HumeGender: MaleAge: 24 Years OldOccupation: Guardian[Skill)Twin Blades • HolyEtiquetteIron WallWow, Edgar-san's amazing.He has [Twin Blades • Holy].Moreover, he has Iron Wall which looks strong. Let's see, what kind of skill is Iron Wall. Let's try appraising Iron Wall more. [Iron Wall): O
PREVIOUS Chapter: {A job which makes the best use of [Cut) the steadiest should be employed by adventurers to dismantle at a dismantling shop? However, there are a lot of different personalities for adventurers, there may also be those who won't pay for just dismantling. Just by following them once, I might end up following them for life. It might be me worrying too much, but it is quite possible. I will pick one but for now, I'll postpone it. What about [Paste)? No, I can only think of a worker.…..., Even if I were to have Cut, it will take too long to become independent. Kyakka da, Kyakka!! ( Kyakka soundsbetter imo xD Kyakka = Rejected) To not use the Skills which weren't bestowed upon me by God, openly, is unexpectedly hard. } ( PRESENT TIME)In the end, there seems to be little usage for[Cut & Paste). Only as a dismantling shop, huh... Wait, hold on? Since I managed to increase my number of skills after so much trouble, how about I try to become a real hunte
I who defeated the orc which was unexpectedly a strong enemy, now have a little more confidence in my combat abilities. And once again, I felt the usefulness of the Skills.[The things I could do up until now is because of the Skills I had obtained since yesterday... I wonder how it would be if I had more Skills. Unintentionally, those words spilled out of my mouth.And, I now know the existence of both Skills and Abilities within monsters. Obviously I can't take the townspeople's skills, but I don't need to hold back if my opponent is a monster. It becomes weak when I steal its Skill, I can use said Skill freely, and the monster is defeated. If it's like this, instead of being a hunter, perhaps it's better for me to become an adventurer instead.Even if I continue as a hunter, I will only encounter the same type of monsters. Naturally, the Skills I can acquire will eventually run out. But, what if I became an adventurer?Probably, to finish requests I will encounter many types of mons
Since it's not yet noon, should I try huntingfor the orc immediately? No matter what I want to repay him for entrusting me with the Storage Bag ahead of time. Orcs live fairly deep into the forest but there are some which wander around like the one from before. It's good that I can hunt rabbits, sheep, etc. while l'm at it since l have the large Storage Bag. I returned home first, chewed on dried meat left over from yesterday and went towards the forest again. The gatekeeper must have changed shifts in the morning, since it's a different person. Since he's also an acquaintance, he said Take care jwhen showing me out. I washappy for that.Such a small thing became my motivation and brightened my mood as I entered the forest. (Author sama: I somehow pity Myne, since thesmallest things make him happy and stuff,he must have had a hard life... "ll be cheeringfor you Myne~ (T-T)l advanced deep into the forest just as I did in the morning, rabbits appeared several times and I must have
Even though it was a hard fight, it was quite the harvest to be able to defeat three of the orcs which I was aiming for just today. That's because I thought it would take two to three days, fastest. With this, the storage bag is officially mine. In this hunt, the understanding of the storage bag's usefulness has penetrated deep into my bones. I planned to understand it but it has to be tried out before getting the hang of it. Though I had to dismantle, three orcs on top of that, I still have some space. Finishing the job by picking medicinal plants and hunting prey on the way back is something my mental health and financialstability are thankful for. While thinking that, I returned cautiously due to the lesson from the battle with the crawler.I didn't forget to use appraisal and harvest herbs on my way. In the end, I defeated one crawler and two Forest Mutton before exiting the forest. When I was passing through the back gate, the gatekeeper whom I was familiar with saw me who was
However, potions can be created using Draw well water, huh When I returned home, I immediately prepared to try making potions. According to the plan, when I was able to make the potion with the flow I saw at the alchemist, my impressions were as above. (-: Basically the soliloquy above)I can make approximately 6 L of potion from just the medicinal plants I've collected. As expected, if I sell these, the alchemy shop's sales will be affected And I'll be repaying his kindness in teaching me with evil. I'll just make enough for my own use. [This much will probably last me some time, right? For now, the completed potions were put in a big transparent bottle which I previouslybought from the general store. Tomorrow, I'll buy small bottles and divide the potions. With my work roughly finished, while I was taking a breather my stomach let out a rumble. Come to think of it, I still haven't eaten yet.]As I only needed to make food for one, I cooked the leftover orc meat teppanyaki -style
[N, nothing! Leaving that aside, thank you very much, rather than that, isn't a beautiful person like Aisha-san is coming to such a place alone is dangerous. Panicking, as I said, a [Ahem!] camefrom behind Aisha-san. Ehh? Even the guild leader is here, i completely didn't't notice him![Sorry for disturbing your happy talk butI'm also here you know?]As I hurriedly apologised to the guild leader, he said It's a joke while grinning broadly. Well, it's okay. Even though I also came here, there's no one here who can do anything to Aisha. You don't have to worry about that matter I was told that Aisha-san was a former adventurer! And a "B rank" at that!!! About two years ago, the party she was in had dissolved, so the guild leader called out to her since he had nothing to lose, it seemsthat she quickly took up being a receptionist. I see, that's where she got that strength. I understand.[By the way, did you do this?]The Guild leader's face immediately turned grave, he turned his sig
The skill Presence Erase is a Skill whichdilutes one's presence.If used in a place without anyone looking, it will be difficult for opponents to notice, it is an excellent skill which can make onedisappear from the opponent's view for but a moment even if one is within sight. In other words, if I use it in this situation. yes, I can get close to him before he can respond. I, who then rushed into him, swung my dagger straight towards him with all my strength as if to Cut him up.[Guaaaaaaaaaa!]I then immediately back stepped to where Iwas. Probably he thought that I was gone for amoment, and only thought that his chest was suddenly torn directly.[Y, you fucker!!! What did you do]While holding down the wound on his chest with his arm, he shouted towards me. [What, you say, since you said you'd let me have the first strike, I attacked. I can't possibly let myself be killed after all] I think he was careless. I feel that the wound I gave him, seemed to be quite deep. I don't know w
___[ Last Time ]___[A young man who has just come of agecrushing an orc solo, is that even possible?]A beauty wearing a pure white surcoatfrowned her well-featured face while askinga question.[Yeah, no doubt. We were able to confirmthat he had even killed four orcs in just oneday]The surcoat wearing beauty could notbelieve it. Having confidence in her skill, even if she, who is called "pseudonym" by the crowd.defeats an orc by herself, it would be difficult. It is no wonder that she could not believe that a young man who had just come of age could accomplish such a task. She can only think that he had received an extremely terrifying Skill. [If that is true hmm, I think I will trymeeting him once Is that so, I thank you for doing that. I also think that there is a need to meet him once]A few days later, she went towards Lucas, the town where the young man who had defeated orcs lives. ____ [ Present ]. _____When I arrived at the guild,
As expected, it will be difficult to form aparty with someone, huh.It'll probably be exposed from there.It would be good if someone with power were to back me up, but it isn't easy to findsuch a person.However, since I became an adventurer after so much trouble, I have been yearning for a "comrade". Though, that is an unreasonable wish, I unconsciously let out a sigh.Sigh. it can't be helped, yosh, since I'm really tired and obtained quite a harvest, let's hurry and return to the guild!I stood up immediately from my lying position, used [Body Enhancement Small) [Leg Strength Enhancement Small Swift Feet (Small)], and started running in the direction of the Town of Lucas.[Hey, stop that!] The C Rank adventurer, Lyle who made a racket at the bar and personally picked afight with adventurers who ganged up onhim, was frantically called out by a man whowere in the same party as him. Lyle who had medical tape (A tape with recovery effects soaked in medicinal plants) on his face, arm
"Hm?""W, Whaaaaaat!?"Somehow I have a feeling I saw an outrageous skill. I rubbed my eyes and tried looking again."Eh? Where did it go? Aaaaaaa, that slimehas hidden somewheeeere!""No way, I can't find it."" this I have no way but to appraise anddefeat one by one, huh"I wonder how many there are. I feel likefainting.However, if I didn't look wrongly, it was[Tenfold Experience Acquisition].If that skill is as I expected,I might be able to become very strong.Even though it's difficult, I think it will be worth the effort.For now, I used [Iron Wall) and [Body Enhancement Small], and confronted the lightly swaying slimes one by one.Since they'll be defeated if I attack with my dagger, I have to first try receiving an attackpurposely, and test if I will be okay gettingnear that herd.I collected small stones, and threw them at.the slimes.As I did that, while swaying its body a little, it faced me and hurled itself at me.Poyopoyo~~~ n! Un, there isn't any pain at all. If it's
Slimes by itself, are as we know, theweakest monsters, so you won't earn moneyat the place you hunt them, and it won't beevaluated as contribution towards the guild.However, since such a situation happened,though not much money can be earned, theguild contribution point is nothing to besneezed at. At least until the supply isstable.As she said that, Aisha-san said "Do youunderstand up until here?" and smiled.I see, it surely is quite tasty. "But, since it's such an unpleasant situation,was it okay to bring me this request as anexclusive?""Good job realising it, actually this request isonly reserved for today. The officialannouncement is planned from tomorrow,only exclusives can accept this first."I then listened to Aisha-san in more detail."For now Lunawan is borrowing oil little bylittle from each town, they are able to avoiddanger for the time being. That's why youcan rest at ease""Okay, I see."If it's like that, then it's probably okay.Reserving it for us ex
Morning, before it was even bright, I woke up, prepared my equipment, and went hunting in the usual forest.Since I'm planning to receive my first request today, I wanted to first test the new knife I had bought yesterday.Though I encountered caterpillars and sheep, for the sake of raising the proficiency level I only used wind magic to kill them.After I defeated a few caterpillars etc., I finally managed to encounter an orc."Now then, I wonder how's my new weapon"While muttering such, I prepared and first of all I plundered the skills from my prey, the orc.Since I already have the skills, I pasted them on a suitable spot on the ground.Casting [Strong Arm] and [Leg Enhancement Small] on myself, [Support Magic Speed Reduction] and [Support Magic Sleep] on the orc, the battle then started.Previously it was also like this, and I felt that the[Support MagicSleep] was not very effective.Probably because this time it was also resisted, and didn't show its effects.I wonder if it would be m
( Last Chapter)For some reason, the feeling of becoming stronger is a sensation of the world.And when that is mastered, one will feel that their ability is raised. That's why they don't think it's "The more you use it, the stronger it'll become" If they know, surely they'll put in great effort to raise their level.But, since they don't know, they can't become stronger anymore, except if by chance.However, I know. No, I accidentally knew.Won't this become an outrageous advantage as an adventurer.I've no choice but to accept guild requests immediately tomorrow.I won't only be able to obtain a new skill, I'll even be able to strengthen my presentskills.And if I raise my own level, I'll become evenstronger. I think Aisha-san who became my exclusive receptionist lady will also surely bedelighted. [ NOW]Yosh, yosh, yosh! My motivation is rapidly gushing forth! Thanks to the skills I received from God, mylife has really changed, and is heading towards an excitingly good direction!It w
[ Previous chapters][As for the other one, choose the one you like from that daggers shelf, any one of them is better than the one you use for dismantling. ]As I was told, I looked at the shelf. I tried appraising them and they definitely look the same.Hm, wait somehow a strange one is mixed among them.Name: Dagger of OriginAttack: + 10Grade: NoneAttribute: GrowthSpecial Attack: NoneWhat is this, it seems strange.It's pitch black from the blade to the grip but it doesn't seem to be different from the other daggers.Even so, I am curious about something.It has a weird name, and I don't know what's the meaning of the growth attribute.Uun, since it's not much different from theothers, Ill choose this.[Oji-san, I'll choose this.How much is it][Hou, 60 silver coins will be good.] [ NOW]I paid oji-san for both the daggers, and expressed my gratitude.
