(020) Confiding secret
Translator: Tseirp
「Slash!」
In the 2nd floor, the sword skill flew through the air and cut down the flying bats .
We didn’t encounter any kobolds on the 1st floor so this was the first prey for today .
【Ichinojo Level up】
【Apprentice Magician skill: 「Wand Equip」 obtained】
【Lumberjack skill: 「Axe Equip」 obtained】
【Lumberjack skill: 「Lumbering」 obtained】
【Job: Axe-user is now available】
My Jobless job did not level up but Swordsman is now Lv5, Lumberjack Lv5 as well and Apprentice Magician is Lv3 .
Hmm, it’s the first time Jobless did not level up when I defeated an enemy .
I guess the necessary experience required once the level passes 50 increases .
“Haru, let’s go . ”
” … ”
Eh? There wasn’t a response .
She was thinking about something with a meek look on her face .
“Haru?”
“Ah, yes, sorry . ”
“No, it’s fine . Let’s go . ”
“Yes . ”
The 2nd floor practically did not have many monsters as well .
I did not have any clue as to why this was the case so I asked Haru and apparently the monster-repelling incense that we used yesterday when we passed through might still be affecting the area .
So there’s a possibility we would encounter enemies if we enter the side paths .
Arriving at the 3rd floor, I believed that Haru remembers the route to the 10th floor to a certain extent and advanced .
Then, on the 3rd floor, I discovered my first commoner … no, first goblin! Or rather, there was the second, third and fourth as well .
Seems like a goblin group .
I had a tough fight with a single goblin that time but I will show the difference today!
“Well then, I’ll deal with this as well . ”
“Understood . ”
I charged towards the 4 goblins and released a 「Slash!」 attack first .
That one attack mercilessly killed 2 goblins in a row, leaving behind their goblin stick and magic stone . I had enough room to tsukkomi the situation where items are left behind even though their bodies disappear . Then, the goblins came attacking .
A flanking attack, if I defend against one side my other side would take damage .
But … the current me have no blind spot .
“「Rotational Slash!」”
With a single revolution at a speed faster than a figure skater’s spin, the surrounding goblins were sliced apart . It was an easy win .
【Ichinojo Level up】
【Job: Hammer-user is now available】
Hmm, Jobless to Lv53, Swordsman Lv6, Lumberjack Lv7, Apprentice Magician still at Lv4 .
The Apprentice Magician’s growth is significantly slower huh .
For the time being, I picked up the fallen magic stones and goblin clubs referred to as goblin sticks and stored them in my magic bag .
Looking back, Haru once again had a pensive look on her face .
“Haru, what’s the matter? Are you not feeling well?”
“No, I have 2 matters that I’m curious about . ”
“Curious?”
But I didn’t notice anything especially strange .
“I thought about it when master defeated the giant bat, but the power of master’s slash is too different . Even though master could not defeat a goblin yesterday with a single attack, today you could leisurely defeat them . You were not holding back yesterday right?”
Ah, I see . So she was curious about that .
” … And the other matter?”
“Earlier, I reach Lv2 for Beast Swordsman . ”
“Ah, congratulations . ”
“It’s only by word of mouth, but I heard that it requires at least defeating 20 goblins to reach Beast Swordsman Lv2 . The level up was way too soon . ”
“Hmm, Haru, please do not tell anyone what I am about to tell you . ”
” … Understood . I will defend it with my life . ”
“No, I wish that you prioritize your life over it but … do you know about blessings?”
Haru’s eyebrows fluttered slightly at the mention of blessing .
“I’ve heard of it . Occasionally, lost individuals descend from other dimensions and those lost individuals are equipped with power that we do not possess . That power is blessings . Don’t tell me master is?”
“Yea, I come from a country called Japan and well I think I am one of those lost individuals . Are you afraid?”
“No, I will never think that master is frightening . On the contrary, I am proud that master confided in this secret with me . ”
“And so, the blessing I possess is the blessing to grow faster than others . 20x experience point acquisition and 1/20 required experience points, these two . ”
“Master holds 2 blessings?”
Haru keeps getting surprised today huh .
Although it’s because of a mistake by the goddesses to double book me .
“Of the 20 times experience I obtain, half of it and a further half of it, 15 times is given to me while the remaining 5 times goes to Haru . Which is why, if you defeat 4 goblins, you would get 20 goblins worth of experience . ”
Seems like 1/20 required experience points does not affect Haru .
So, in essence, this is the difference between the 2 blessings .
When in a party with an individual stronger than I am for power leveling, the 1/20 required experience points would definitely be more useful .
When in a party with peers or those weaker than I am for power leveling, the 20x experience point acquisition would instead be more useful .
“Which was why master said that you would defeat the enemies until the 3rd floor on your own . ”
“Yeah . Well, if the enemies were stronger then I would not have said that though . ”
Then, Haru replied .
“Even so, I did not imagine that master is also a Japanese individual similar to the one of the heroes, Daijiro-sama, who defeated the demon lord, Family‧Rarity . (TL: What is with that name?! ファミリス・ラリテイ)
“Eh?”
Daijiro-san, you were such a famous person in this world?
