Chapter 354

(354) List of Advanced Dungeon rewards

【t.i.tle: Labyrinth Conqueror VII has skilled up to Labyrinth Conqueror VIII】

【Clear reward skill: Thought Defense acquired】

– – Thought Defense . A skill to prevent others from reading my inner thoughts .

The measure that Minerva-sama applied on me was reflected as the clear reward skill .

“Master, what happened?”

“It’s nothing . ”

I was told to not tell anyone what I saw and heard just now .

Ah, d.a.m.n it, I received too much information all at once .

The end of the world? Miri to become a G.o.ddess? My World is Miri’s world? Methias-sama was the one who set the Jobless skills?

In the first place, why did Methias-sama record down that I must be told this information?

I am just a Jobless .

My mind was full of question marks .

“Ichinojo-sama, are you truly all right?”

“Yeah, Rarael . I’m fine . Let’s return to My World after we leave the boss room . ”

I smiled to rea.s.sure the three of them and left the G.o.ddess room .

“Oh right, is that a Rare Medal in Carol’s hand?”

“Yes . My labyrinth clear bonus was this Rare Medal . ”

“Rarael and Haru got skills?”

Since they weren’t holding any items I figured they received skills .

But I was wrong .

“I got a needle . ”

“Needle?”

Haru showed it to me .

It certainly was a sewing needle . It was shining golden but it’s still a needle – – wouldn’t the scrubber be even better?

“Hn? Eh!?”

I gazed at the needle and inadvertently raised my voice .

“What’s wrong?”

“I used Metal Appraisal but this needle – – it’s not just any metal! It is Orihalc.u.m!”

It was an Orihalc.u.m needle .

Haru threw the Orihalc.u.m needle and quickly pulled out two swords .

The Orihalc.u.m needle flew through the air like a baseball .

“Eh? Haru, what are you doing?”

“Master said it was Orihalc.u.m so I wondered if it could be cut but … I see, it certainly is st.u.r.dy . ”

The first thing she did after finding out it was Orihalc.u.m was to cut it?

The sword would be damaged instead … ah, the swords have auto repair skills so they would be fine even if the blades were chipped .

Haru recovered the fallen Orihalc.u.m needle .

“Hahaha … so, did Rarael receive a skill? Or a needle?”

“I received the skill called Messenger . A skill to deliver my words to specific people . I seem to have to register permission with the delivery target to send my words . May I have Ichinojo-sama’s permission to register you?”

“Ah, sure . Messenger huh? We should test if your voice can be delivered from My World out to Otherworld . ”

After that, I explained the skill I received and we returned to My World after leaving the boss room .

After returning to My World, Rarael and Carol headed to the open-air bath . They probably wanted to relax after the tiring dungeon conquering session . I recovered their stamina with Stamina Heal so it was probably more of mental fatigue .

I ordered Haru to take care of Fuyun .

I’ll first perform the customary level up checks .

My current job levels were as follows .

【Jobless Lv121 Advanced Blacksmith Lv32 Pract.i.tioner Lv80★ Magic Blacksmith Lv26 Magic Journalist Lv80★】

Magic Journalist was the only lower rank job so just one round of dungeon exploration was enough to max it . It went up by close to 50 levels .

Compared to that, Jobless level was increasing very slowly .

Probably because I broke through the limit once .

Next, I’ll check on the skills and jobs I acquired . I thought of doing so but then Nanawat came over .

Yup, it’s quite enjoyable to see it welcome me every time I come back .

It growled ‘Kyurururu’ so I gave it the sliced elephant meat from my item bag .

I checked my log while Nanawat chewed on the elephant meat .

I was checking the Practioner job every time so I’ll exclude it .

【Ichinojo leveled up】

【Jobless skill: 「Kin Messenger」acquired】

【Advanced Blacksmith skill: 「Endow Attribute」acquired】

【Advanced Blacksmith skill: 「Remake II」has skilled up to 「Remake III」】

【Magic Blacksmith skill: 「Endow Magic」acquired】

【Magic Blacksmith skill: 「Release Setting」acquired】

【Magic Journalist skill: 「Ink Saving」acquired】

【Magic Journalist skill: 「Talisman Recycling」acquired】

【Magic Journalist skill: 「Ink Strengthening」acquired】

【There are no further levels for Magic Journalist】

【t.i.tle: Peak of Magic Journalist acquired】

【Job: Magic Official is now available】

【Recipes acquired】

My recipes had increased tremendously .

Oops, I had subtly outperformed Rarael .

Well, my current kin were only Haru and Carol so Messenger might be easier to use .

“Kin … huh . ”

Nanawat raised its head as it was eating the elephant meat when it heard me mutter . I gently pat Nanawat’s head and urged it to continue eating as I thought to myself .

The word kin was strange among the Jobless skills .

Hikikomori was strange too .

Until now the skills were skills to increase my number of jobs, to change my jobs, to investigate jobs . The skills related to jobs kept increasing . But the ones I have been acquiring lately were to create my own world, skills regarding kin or skills I don’t really know what they are, completely unrelated to jobs .

I was pondering that question but I finally know the answer . Those were skills related to G.o.ds .

Creating a world like a G.o.d, creating kin . And then, 【x.x.xX】 . Suddenly transferring to another location and activating the Kin Summoning skill . These were not activated by my will but by the influence of the will of a greater being, G.o.d?

Well, that was nothing more than self-debate – – no, it wasn’t a debate so I should call it my own opinion – –

So it can a.s.sign attributes to weapons such as an iron sword after I craft them .

If I could a.s.sign the Light Attribute, I could even make a sword capable of cutting ghosts .

I could try endowing fire attribute to a Water Sword but I’m terrified if it would result in a steam explosion .

A skill to allow usage of spells using a weapon in exchange for losing the weapon?

I felt like I could make disposable magic tools now .

It looked like I could freely choose the method I wish to release the spells .

I could set it such that it would release upon the sword breaking or when throwing the sword .

I recalled something when looking at the skill .

The Excalipoor that Jofre threw in the Ferruit dungeon .

The sword shone with light and expelled the darkness when it was thrown .

It probably had Light Magic packed into it .

But Excalipoor at that time was just an iron sword .

Inscription – – a skill that will allow the weapon to display its power according to the name a.s.signed to the weapon .

Malina probably taught her that .

That Excalipoor is the strongest if it disappears once it is thrown .

Most probably this world does not have a legendary weapon that disappears once you throw it . But Kanon believed Malina’s word and created that weapon .

The result was a disposable sword that was many times more powerful than usual .

“Blacksmithing was a lot deeper than I imagined . ”

That was all for the blacksmithing-type skills .

Next would be Magic Journalist skills .

But since it lowers the strength of the talisman, I probably won’t use it .

Or perhaps I could use it to hold back my attacks . Also, there would be no problem if I used it for non-combat talismans such as communication and transfer talismans .

So it was not a skill to repair broken talismans .

Well, I should probably use it when creating many talismans .

I could no longer level Magic Journalist up but I can raise the Magic Journalist levels further if I drink the Limit Breaking Medicine or level up Magic Official to increase the level of the Talisman Recycle skill .

It had the opposite effect from Ink Saving apart from the deterioration over time .

In contrast, this skill would be meaningless on communication and transfer talismans .

Or maybe using it for communication talismans would increase its sensitivity?

I should probably test out by creating talismans with Ink Saving, regular and Ink Strengthening .

For now, that was all for the skills .

Next, I should test out the skills .

I used the Kin Messenger skill .

『Haru, I am currently sending my voice to you using a skill called Kin Messenger . If you can hear my voice, look for Ririana and ask her to bring the ink, talisman and pen for Magic Journalist to me . If she can’t come due to other tasks, please relay this to someone nearby . 』

The message was apparently sent .

But it was a little inconvenient that there was no reply .

In this case, it would probably be better to use the communication talisman to communicate .

I have not been creating Magic Journalist talismans so I should try making all kinds of them .

I’ll check my recipes .

“Magic Tag recipe open . ”

I chanted the spell .

The talismans were categorized into attack-type, support-type and others .

The talismans registered under attack-type were further divided by attribute and were listed as follows .

They each had two kinds and there were no strange attributes such as Gra.s.s Attribute .

The next was support-type .

I could not tell for sure by just the name but I could tell the rough effects . They were similar to the Shield and Heal Recovery Magic used by Pract.i.tioners . The Strengthening Talisman would likely strengthen physical functions .

Unfortunately, there were no dispel curse talismans .

I was hoping to be able to cope with curses with a dispel curse talisman without Dispel .

Lastly, I examined the other talismans .

The other talismans were not divided into categories .

I was now able to create Transfer Talismans .

The Appraisal Talisman was interesting too .

But if there were these many talismans, I would think that there would be talisman shops but I had not seen any in the cities I have been in .

Hn, strange .

Nanawat raised its head and looked into the distance .

“Master, sorry for the wait . I brought Ririana-san . ”

“Oh, the message reached you?”

“Yes, I heard Master’s voice . That is a good skill . I could feel Master near me even though we were far apart . I can’t forget the excitement I felt at that moment . It was not through my ears but conveyed directly to my heart . ”

Eh? Was it that good?

I want to feel close to Haru too .

Would she be able to acquire a skill like Master Messenger?
