Chapter 7
[Personal skills, huh?]
Kirihara’s
Mine is
It is undeniable that mine is simpler compared with Kirihara .
[Hmm?]
My skill tree...
By any chance, is it extending upside down?
I tried flicking up .
[Ah...]
It’s stretching down .
The color of the line is lighter than the my classmate’s tree that are extending up .
I had not been able to notice it until now because of its thinness .
But if you look closely, there is a line that goes down thinly .
I follow the line with my eyes .
The line is thin .
However, the display of skill information was clear .
[Are you saying that I can use these three skills of ?]
Just like an RPG .
Just like a social game .
I used to play that game too .
So that familiar skills- or rather, magic names .
The question is whether it’s useful or not...
Eh, why not?
It’s E-Rank .
Though?
Isn’t it great to be able to use it at LV 1?
I feel like a robed man was saying that .
Okay .
Should I dare to ask the goddess?
Well,
[Goddess-sama is, uh–]
Oh, there she was .
Behind a thick pillar .
The Q&A corner seems to have ended .
[Hmm?]
She’s talking to someone .
It looks like a different person from the robed men...
I put my back to the other side of the pillar .
Uh... I’ve just hidden myself .
It can’t be helped .
It takes courage to talk to the goddess...
I take a deep breath .
Okay .
Ready, Done .
I make up my mind to get out of the pillar .
But,
I didn’t take the first step .
Curiosity took over me because of what I heard from the goddess .
[It seems that there’s only one of the lowest E-Ranks mixed in . ]
It’s about me, isn’t it?
[What do you want to do, Vysis?] (T/N: Did I get the name right?)
Who is that?
She’s calling the goddess-sama’s name without honorifics .
[Don’t worry . Even the lowest rank have its uses . ]
<strong>˅</strong>
I feel like the number of soldier in the room have suddenly increased .
No...
In fact, It’s still increasing .
I think there’s about thirty more people?
The newcomers seemed very tough .
[.................. . ]
I can somehow understand by the way they act and the atmosphere around us .
They are trying to get us out .
No .
To be exact– Mimori Touka? (T/N: 三森灯河を)
A soldier has been sticking to my left and right .
It’s obvious I’ve been marked .
The soldier on the right opened his mouth .
[The same is true for everyone else, but it’s strange . Even though you’re a hero from a different world, you still have no power to take control this place . ]
The soldier advised as he put his hand on the handle of his sword .
You won’t be safe if you acted strangely .
That’s why they’re threatening .
[All the heroes, please move to the next room!]
The goddess gives instructions .
The goddess who leads .
The students who follows .
[E, Everyone... follow the goddess’ instructions...]
Zakurogi’s tone have frankly fallen .
Indeed, half of the class was now blatantly passing through Zakurogi .
Earlier, Zakurogi also took the crystal measurement .
He’s D-Rank .
It seems that adults who exceed the mid-twenties tend to be low ranked .
On the other hand, it’s easy for teens to get a high rank .
Therefore, it is said that there are a lot of young people who are summoned .
The goddess explained so earlier .
Is it because of his D-Rank?
Zakurogi was visibly beginning to be despised by the students .
His daily activities may have influenced it . too .
Or is it simply a change that came because his rank is considered to be lower?
It seems that Zakurogi also felt the change in his treatment .
The shadow of the past can’t be seen in the atmosphere .
It can be said that the “homeroom teacher” of the current 2-C is without a doubt, the goddess .
We followed the goddess and moved to room with a magical pattern on the floor .
[If your name is called, please go to the center of the magic circle there . Ah, after this is done, you will have the time to settle down a little . ]
My classmates look happy .
Everything has been too fast since I came here .
I can finally take a breather .
There is a little relief for everyone .
Oyamada raised his hand .
[Say~, what do you do in this room?]
[It’s a ritual . ]
The next one who opened his mouth is Kirihara .
[Ritual? Are you going to summon again?]
The goddess lightly clapped her hands .
Pan~ tsu! (T/N: Like I said, not intentional . )
The goddess grinned .
[Anyway, I’ll call you name first, okay? Then– Touka Mimori-kun, please go to the center of the magic circle . ]
[Eh?]
Me?
