Chapter 12
Ilya
After returning to the town after noon, shi+on-san and I split up
shi+on-san's adventurer co they needed her on the frontline no matter what
shi+on-san see ed to work
”Right, Onee-chan doesn't belong to me That's the problem”
One day I' to leave this town and travel the world
However, shi+on-san has family here as well as her adventurer comrades
Not to be conceited, but if I asked her, I think she would come with me
But I only want to do that if there's no other way
”Uhhuild and saving up money”
At present, I' too much support
I have to pay back all the favors I have received
I'd asked about the general location before, so I uild
The toasn't that big so I found it right away
They had put a sign outside saying 'Guild, Rinnal Branch'
As always, I can read and I can converse
This conversion into japanese is too useful
Mulling over those thoughts, I crashed into someone
Souild
”Ah! I'm sorry——ah”
I looked at the person I'd run into and was in for a surprise
Mean-Look-In-The-Eyes!
”it's alright”
I'et involved with this person
That's what I thought, bowed o past him
”Hey”
Don't talk to me!
I reluctantly stopped and turned around
” what is it?”
”Are you an elf?”
”I'm not”
” I see”
Not because I'm a halfelf, but because my family told me not to reveal my race
You should listen to people's warnings
Only fools don't learn from failure
Theelse and tried to leave, but this ti
”Ah, wait a moment!”
”What?”
The man turned around, annoyed
Hey, why don't you show some more sociability?
”You, you're froht?”
”Right”
Well, I wouldn't easily mistake a person that unsociable and dressed all in black anyway
”The person on that carriage, uhm that is”
”The slave”
While I was hesitating to say it, he easily did
I see So she really is a slave
”Are you going to stay in town for a while?”
”For a week, I've heard What about it?”
One week
One week, to earn a fortune of 500000 Rook
Talk about unrealistic
”That girl was she bought by someone already?”
”No, not yet We need to go to the capital to find a buyer She's a prize”
Prize?
What's that about? Does he mean out here in the boonies nobody can pay the 500000 Rook for her?
”What, do you want that?”
A slave
A being that prioritizes theirelse
I don't plan to be unreasonable in my deo and what I do
To be honest? That would be a great help
” I' about it a little”
”Do you have money?”
”Not enough to buy her”
There's no need to tell hi with foolish honesty
The unsociable man went pensive for a while and kept his mouth shut
”Oh, well Just et into the mood to buy it”
”Eh!?”
”We're renting a room for it at the slavery fir after all, you can also have a look at other slaves”
The word slavery firm alone is suspicious already
Will I really be alright if I go alone?
I'e bars myself, am I?
” I don't look it, but I'e You'd better be prepared for the consequences if you make a weird move”
”We're not that iht of it and the firm crumbles”
What he says makes sense, but what he does is still suspicious
”Can I go ho first?”
”Of course, I don't uild for a while Just come back when you're interested”
According to shi+on-san, I'm worth 500000 Rook
Actually, I don't agree with slavery, but I'irl
Thus I went home once and informed Aunty
It goes without saying that she orried about hts, is doing an upright business
That's what Aunty said
They also shouldn't do so weird all of a sudden
Just in case, I checked my own Status
I got rid of the apprentice
I need to knohat changed
I iic entry and the Skill entry
Skill: selectable
Attack Magic: Thunder (Proficiency 10)
Support Magic: Heal
It really has increased
Because Support Magic has shown up aic so far was differentiated into Attack Magic
Okay, let's first have a look at the Skill entry then
Latent Potential, Double Cast, Cast Time Reduction
I see, so here is where I can finally use the special abilities I had set in the very beginning
I can select one a them
In that case, there's not even rooht what to pick
Cast Time Reduction
That's the only option
Latent has an ihtest idea what it does
I can pick that later
I have an idea for Double Cast, but I feel it would be difficult for the current me to utilize
I think I'll be able to use it better once I've grown a bit
I selected the skill Cast Time Reduction
Skill: Cast Time Reduction (special)
What's this special?
What ular Cast Time Reduction?
Time to verify that!
To begin with, let's check the Magic entry
Thunder: no cast time, 10s cooldown (proficiency 10)
T-this is
Cast time none!?
It was this strong!?
Even the 10s cast time so far haven't been that inconvenient?
At least while in a party
Soest opening all of a sudden
Support Magic: Heal: no cast time, 20s cooldown
I can't choose a support ic
With a healing class, I probably would've had a selection
But Heal, huh
Isn't it wonderful to be able to heal myself now?
There's no cast time, either
Well, the 20s cooldown looks like a heavy restriction
If I use it along with attack ic, I'd probably collapse before the battle's even begun
But that's it for the uess?
”But with this, I can resist enough if so does happen”
If I activatefro
