Novel Bin Chapter 28
When I check my Status the number of my Skills had increased .
I was a Swordsman when I entered the forest . After I left the forest, I got the Skill 【Swordsmanship】 .
I didn’t have that Skill before .
I experimented with changing my Job Class to Magic Swordsman . I acquired various Skills for that Job Class . I switched my Job Class to Magician, and I gained the Skills: 【Magic Sword】, 【Reinforcement Magic】, and 【Support (common magic)】 .
When I previously changed my Job Class to Magician I didn’t acquire any Skills, perhaps, I hadn’t yet fulfilled the requirements . The Skills acquired seem to be saved in each Job Class category, the Skills are not lost if I change my Job Class .
If my theory is correct 【Magic Energy Sword】 should be similar to the 【Magic Sword】 that Feyru uses .
However, 【Magic Energy Sword】 unlike 【Magic Sword】is not an attribute enchantment . But rather 【Magic Energy Sword】 is a materialized blade of a selected attribute .
When I slash with the magic blade, the area where I had cut is burnt .
I am able to manipulate the fire that is coated on the sword .
I try out various attribute experiments . I coat my sword with Recovery Magic Energy and seem to have created a technique that will heal injuries after being cut .
Next I try, 【Support Magic】 . It seems to be a type of magic that buffs Status or inflicts a Status ailment .
I have an idea . I try using the Monster Flute on my Monster companions . It worked, the Monster’s Stats have increased .
Is the reason the Item works because I have used a Demon Ore in its production?
However, there was no effect when I tried using Fire Magic to buff them .
Perhaps the problem is solved during the process of infusing Magic Energy into the Demon Ore .
Before making the Item, I need to transfer Magic Energy into the Demon Ore and give it an attribute .
The Item operates similar to the ring . Magic Energy needs to be stored in the Item, and the user has to be aware of the effect .
Every time I blow the flute Magic Energy is depleted . It works, how fortunate .

*******************************************
I thought to myself, if Skills can be acquired, why doesn’t everyone change their Job Class?
When I ask Amy, she tells me that people who constantly switching their Job Class will make themselves an enemy of the Guilds .
Even if they are able to peaceful resign from the Guild in most cases they will have to pay a heavy penalty .
By the way, “Adventurer” is not a Job Class, the Adventurer’s Guild is a business . For example: there are Magician Adventurers, Alchemist Adventurers, and etc .
After testing out my new Skill, I experiment with my companions’ Skills . |
I evoke 【Selection】, under 【Master’s Knowledge】 I choose Ayla’s 【Monster’s Knowledge】 . From my understanding 【Selection】 allows one to search for various things . For example, among all of my possessions I can narrow down the search to a specific item .
I am able to find a Potion +4 a midst all the Potions among Amy’s belongings .
This is an unexpectedly convenient Skill .
After having a discussion about Job Classes and Guilds, I learn that apparently there is no 『Magic Swordsmen’s』 Guild .
Most 『Magic Swordsmen』 register at the Adventurer’s Guild, it seems only some of them belong to the Magician’s Guild .
There is a 【Demon Tamer’s】 Guild .
At the Demon Tamer’s Guild, one can buy and sell Monsters, or purchase Monster Equipment . They also offer a Monster Breeding service .
I wasn’t aware that Monsters had pedigrees .
At the Guild, there are Monster battle exhibition matches . Monster Tamers can have their Monster team battle against other teams .
A team can consist of 2-3 Monsters, 5 for a team of smaller Monsters .
There is a possibility of a Monster becoming wild once again and attacking its Tamer . Therefore, Monsters that become no longer useable are either sold off or released . The Monster Tamer’s Guild’s main line of work is probably buying and selling Monsters .
Currently it isn’t a problem but eventually I will need to visit the Alchemist’s Guild .
「How about we try doing some combat practice . 」
「Yes, I’m always ready . 」
Ayla replies, she sure is reliable . I take out a vial from my leather bag .
It is a bait bag(sachet), made from a Fragrance Ant’s odor . This can be used to lure Monsters . By using the Fragrance Ant’s odor I can create many other types of pheromones . The one I’m holding in my hand is a 『Monster’s Pheromone +4』 .
As the name suggest it will draw Monsters to the user .
This mixture is created from low level 『Monster Pheromones』, it shouldn’t attract high level Monsters . Approximately five minutes after using the pheromones, 10 Goblins appeared from the forest . Perhaps, there is a Goblin nest nearby .
Upon seeing the face of the Goblin, Amy displays an unpleasant expression . She most likely remembers that incident with the Goblins, awhile back .
「Are you alright?」
「… I’m fine . 」
She doesn’t seem to be pushing herself .
A Goblin approaches us, I try activating 【Roar】 .
「GOAAAAAAA!-cough」
Although my throat hurts, half of the Goblins halted and began to cower .
The cowering Goblins obstructed the path of the Goblins that weren’t affected .
Using 【Support Magic】 I spray a paralyzing fog .
About 10 Goblins become completely immobilize .
「Huh, wasn’t that too easy? Do they have no resistances to paralysis?」
「It is probably because the Goblins are low Leveled . 」
The Goblins had an average Level of 5 .
Currently we can handle Monsters of this level with no problem .
I wonder, does the increase in low level Monsters have anything to do with the current events . Anyways, perhaps my Status affects the probability of success .
I use 【Selection】 and have Ruby capture a Goblin .
I check its Status, it doesn’t have any noteworthy Skill .
This time I active a Monster Tamer’s Skill . I want to try experimenting with my Monster companions . Under 【Selection】 I pick Ayla’s 【Trainer】 Skill . I test it on the captured Goblin .
I train the Goblin for two hours, and then I check its Status .
*******************************************
Goblin Commander Lv . 6 Age 2
Skill
【Commander】
Can command Monsters of the same race with a lower rank than oneself .
Effect dependent on Skill’s Level .
*******************************************
Its species has changed .
It has a Skill similar to 【Leadership】, but it was somewhat different .
Furthermore, it can only command Monsters of the same race .
Perhaps, it is a lower rank Skill of 【Leadership】 .
Is it really alright to be commanding Goblins?
I cure the paralysis on the Goblins, and let the Goblin Commander take charge of the group of Goblins .
「Giiiii」
「Gii?」
「Gigii!!」
It wasn’t able to take command immediately . An hour later it brings the Goblins under its command .
It has some ability after all .
「Okay, from now on your name is LaLu, take this sword and work hard . 」
I hand the Goblin Commander, LaLu, a spare iron sword and order him to take his squad to collect Monster materials .
I didn’t sense any intelligence from the other Goblins beside LaLu . He was the only Goblin who understood the significance of the sword I presented to him .
I try to not give them any impossible orders, and inform them to avoid contact with other humans . I didn’t order them to avoid humans because of a moral reason, but rather I feared they would be subjugated . Since, this place is nearby the Adventurer’s town .
Besides, I’m not expecting much from the Goblin Corps .
This is still an experiment . I’m testing the usage limit of my Monster companions . I blow the Monster flute and let LaLu remember the sound . I inform him to return to us when he hears the flute .
After confirming that I could combine 【Selection】 and 【Trainer】 to teach a Monster a Skill, we return to the Inn .
Tomorrow is magic practice with Kuesu, and registering with the Magician’s Guild .
