Regarding Skills, Girls, and Magical Power Quantity
“To introduce myself, I’m the headmaster Evory Maxwell Pleasure, Tsuchio-bou”
The heade robe and ties her hair back A staff leans against the desk, so I’ic
“Um…So the academy, what kind of people enroll in it?”
“As long as you have no crie li Come to think of it, how old’er you, Tsuchio-bou?”
“16”
“Oh, I ht you would be around 14”
japanese people are baby-faced apparently When you go to a foreign country, seems that they won’t sell you liquor too
“The entrance exaic and skill inspection, so there’s no need to be too nervous”
“I understand Come to think of it, where should I stay? I had heard it was a boarding system”
“Until you’re admitted, find an inn You’ve received quite a sum of money from Kisato-bou, no?”
“Yes but…Is there even an inn where Ruu can stay with me?”
“I’ll name a few, so tell’em my name once there They’ll beyou Tsuchio-bou, this is it After this it’s up to you”
“Yes, thank you for everything”
As for the inn that had been introduced by the headmaster, it seemed that it was the inn for Tamers, and I was able to see a lot of h
Apparently the Kingdom’s currency consists of stone coins, copper coins, silver coins, gold coins, and platinued for 100 of its lower denoht’s stay costs 10 coppers, so I think the respective values are 10 yen, 1,000 yen, 100,000 yen, 1,000,000 yen, and 1,000,000,000 yen At the end of the day though, that’s in japanese yen terms
For the two days afterwards, I practiced nothing but flying in the sky and mana manipulation As for whether I et it examined
And after the second day has passed, I once again stood in front of the acade in I should hurry up and take the test, and then go prepare for school or so
I enter the , and write my name down at the reception desk It’s ic is awesome By the way, the words are converted auto, or fro Deus ex machina banzai!
“Now then, please wait in the lobby until your number is called”
My number is…143 That means I’m the 143rd person huh Guess I’ll wait on a bench or so
When I sit down on the bench, Ruu sits down nearby and places her head onher a bunch lately, so it looks like she’s taken a liking to it Well, her closing her eyes and purring is really cute though
While waiting leisurely for my turn, the people steadily increase Surrounded by people happily chatting aith their new-found acquaintances, I continue to pet Ruu…For so on… It’s probably because Ruu is scary… Wonder why but,
“Jiiiiii…”
“…”
“Jiiiiii…”
Since a while ago, a s at Ruu and me Her abundant hair is swept in front of both shoulders and tied with black ribbons
She’s pretty short, maybe less than 140cm
“Wanna feel?”
“Is it okay-dearimasuka!?”
‘deari-eared maiden science chief are you…
(TLN: Rico fro Days reference)
“Y, yah Don’t touch her head Otherwise she’ll rip your hand to shreds Pat her back in a doards motion”
“Uh, understood-dearimasu…”
Gingerly, the girl goes to stroke Ruu When her hand touches, Ruu tries to e here, it’s kinda decided ray-colored
“Ohhhhhh-! It’s so slippery-dearimasuna…”
“Because I washed her yesterday”
“She’s warht-dearimasunaa…”
“Th, that so That’s great then?”
The girl continues to be engrossed in stroking RuuGradually Ruu’sworse Gonna have to stop you soon or it’ll be bad
“Okay, that’s all-”
“Aaaa…”
I pull her hand off of Ruu Only reluctantly, unwillingly does she let go As if to say ‘Praise ainst me
“She really likes you-dearimasuna!”
“‘Cause ourwas intense…”
“Is that so-dearimasu…Ah, I haven’t introduced myself yet-dearimasu! I’m, Triss-dearimasu! I’m a dwarf-dearimasu!”
“I’m Tsuchio Pleasure”
When na yourself here, sounds like first name only’s the norm I should follow suit
“Nice to meet you-dearimasu, Tsuchio-san!”
“Why ‘-san’! Why not ‘-dono’!”
“Nn? Is it better to use ‘-dono’-dearimasuka?”
“Well, I had though so”
“Is that the case-dearimasu Then, I’ll do so from today-dearimasu! Nice to meet you-dearimasu, Tsuchio-dono!”
Awrite! Don’t really get it, but -dono’s become her honorific Yeah, if you end your sentences with -deariotta use the ‘-dono’ honorific after all!
Wait, did you just say ‘dwarf’!? It’s usually set that Dwarven girls are petite and have a lot of hair, but this world is the same too huh
“Tsuchio-dono are you a tamer-dearimasuka?”
“Ahh Triss you’re a dwarf, so are you ai to become a blacksmith?”
As soon as it became the topic of blacksmiths, Triss’ face instantly became cloudy…So that was a landmine huh
“…I, I ca-dearimasu”
Triss’ face clouded for only a moment, and quickly returned to a smile Most likely, blacksmith potential is measured based on skills too
“I still don’t knohat kind of skills I have I think I have the Tame skill, but I’m excited to see what other skills I have”
“I see-dearimasune…I’m excited too-dearimasu!”
“Entry 143, please proceed to Room 11”
My turn Finally going to find out my mana capacity and skills
“Mkay, I’ in Later, Triss Ruu, c’mere”
“Ah, yes Do your best-dearimasu, Tsuchio-dono!”
“Ain’t nothing to do my best on Eh, do your best too Triss”
I take Ruu along, and head for the door with the nuet out of the way on their own, so it’s nice that there’s no need to move anyone aside
The door is human-sized, so I decide to have Ruu wait in front of the roo to touch her, I told her it was fine to threaten them, so I doubt anyone will mess with her
When I knock, “Enter” coo in and there is a beautiful wo behind a desk opposite ofcrystal ball and an A4 size paper laid on top of the ball
“Please sit here”
I sit in front on a chair of the desk For some reason, it’s like the ti nervous…
“First ill examine your skills; please place your hands on this paper”
