Chapter 7: Attributes and Absolute Territory.Warm sunlight streams through the window. And people are bustling on the outside.
I still can’t believe it that I’m in another world.
Ruel is sitting on the opposite side of the table. And there are only two of us in the Ruel’s store. In other words, there’s no single customer in the store.
「 Yuki, let’s start by checking your attribute first. I want to see whether Yuki can use magic or not.」(Ruel)
「Does Ruel can appraisal too?」(Yuki)
「No. I can’t but I have appraisal items with me.」(Ruel)
Ruel stands up and walks into the interior of the store. She takes something from the shelf and comes back.
A cup on the table and 4 gems.
「I can check Yuki’s attribute with these items. It is the common way in this world to check someone’s attribute.」(Ruel)
The blue, red, brown and green gems sink as she pours in the water into the cup.
「Then, Yuki. Put both your hands on each side of the cup and close your eyes. Try to pour your magical power in at the same time.」(Ruel)
「How am I going to do that?」(Yuki)
「How is it?……Oh well, try to imagine something like blood from your interior body is ejected through your palms. 」(Ruel)
「I-is that so? Alright, let’s try and do it.」(Yuki)
Imagine.
*sploshー!!* The image of blood is ejected from my palms vigorously.
This is just an image, though I might die if my blood really comes out from my palms like that. Spirit, sense, aura, spiritual power and magical power. Every power that sleeps inside my body.(Or it should be.)
*Nuuuuuuuーn*
Nnhaaaaaa.
Houuuuu……
It comes! This is the time to show that I’m a man!
「Yuki, you can already pour your magical power in, alright? I didn’t see any reaction at all.」(Ruel)
That’s weird even though I had imaged it that way. Did the process of imaging was bad? Maybe I should imagine something else?
What should I focus on? Concentration…..
That’s right, how about absolute territory. (T/n: Zettai Ryoiki! )
Miniskirt. Knee-high. The exposed skin between the skirt and knee socks. It’s for sure a G.o.d’s domain.
Imagine.
To protect the absolute territory with these hands.
I can reach them within my hands.
The powers that dwell in my body, awake now! The G.o.d’s domain is right in front of my eyes, the absolute territory! (Although there is none.)
「Yuki! Look! Yuki does have magical powers! All the 4 gems are floating! What an amazing concentration! 」(Ruel)
「Well. It seems that I have magical power too. How about that?」(Yuki)
「Please wait a minute. Try to pour in the same magical power on this white magic stone too.」(Ruel)
「Like this?」(Yuki)
I hold it and pour my magical power into the white magic stone.
The image is important. The white magic stone that can be seen from the white absolute territory. I will protect this pure white with my hands! I’ll absolutely protect it!
Then I feel that the white magic stone that I grasp tightly becomes smaller a little bit.
「Did something change? It changed a little bit right now isn’t it?」(Yuki)
「Oh well, it’s simple. Yuki can use water, fire, wind, and earth attributes.」(Ruel)
「Oohhーー! That’s amazing!」(Yuki)
「That’s right. Yuki is blessed since one normally has 1~2 attributes only. But, the magical power itself is weak.」(Ruel)
「What does that mean?」(Yuki)
「You can use many attributes but they are weak. The strength of magical power is different from one person to another and I think Yuki’s rank is rank 1. I can tell by looking at the reduction of the magic stone.」(Ruel)
「I-is that so? By the way, what is rank 1?」(Yuki)
「Rank 1 is the elementary level and you can only use elementary magic. The highest ranked for the magical strength is rank 10. Those who normally rank 10 are known as mages and their ranks are not less than rank 5. Simply put, Yuki is at the beginner level.」(Ruel)
W-what the heck! There should be magical strength cheat level or other options in another world, isn’t it!
Like highest level or special skills!
「Ruel! Are you saying the truth?! There must be something like enormous magical power or special skills right? I want you to tell me the truth! 」(Yuki)
「Your magical power is certainly at the elementary level. What is a skill? And what is special skill?」(Ruel)
「Is there no skills in this world? Something like【Demon Eyes】or 【Sword Art】.」(Yuki)
「I’ve never heard about them. But everybody has their own special powers and individual abilities, is that what you mean?」(Ruel)
That sort of thing…
I’ve never heard of it… but how I am going to return to my original world without a cheat in another world!
「Ruel. Please tell me what can I do at the elementary level. It’s a necessary information to keep on living.」(Yuki)
「 At the elementary level, you able to produce drinkable water. Create small iron. Blow wind. Produce fire at your fingertips. And, I will tell you more about it later.」(Ruel)
Water, iron, wind, and fire. What should I do with them……
「Ruel. Are we outside of business hours right now? Since there’s no customer at all.」(Yuki)
「No, we’re open. I know you’re shocked but don’t try to change the subject, beginner-san」(Ruel)
I-I will work harder, just wait for it! And then, I’ll absolutely return to my original world! Oh, I have to pay back 10 gold coins first …
