Chapter 97
The Status of
the Two
Translator : PolterGlast
"So this is the
border... it's not as heavily guarded as I thought."
"Well, we're not
at war, after all."
In this world, there's
a common enemy called the Demon Lord.
Therefore, wars
between human nations rarely occur.
Vero is also a
fortress city, but the crossbows are aimed north, not east.
That's proof that
they're targeting monsters, not humans.
"Well then, let's
start by... registering as adventurers."
We were going to head
to the Holy Elmore Empire from here.
In that case, it could
be a bit troublesome if Miku's identity remained unclear.
Currently, inspections
are relatively lenient, but still, if things go wrong, they could get
complicated.
So, after discussing
it, we decided to register Miku-san as an adventurer first.
Registering with the
guild and becoming an adventurer made crossing borders much easier.
Just being someone who
made a living by subjugating monsters granted quite a few preferential
treatments.
Since I was already a
registered adventurer, Miku's registration went smoothly.
Also, as a form of
camouflage, she wasn't wearing the nun's habit she had on when we met, but
rather leather armor like a novice adventurer.
Thanks to walking
through the forest for a long time, it was appropriately dirty, and she didn't
look like she was wearing clothes that didn't suit her.
Of course, we couldn't
register her with her real name, so her adventurer name became Mikuru.
By adding the setting
that she was called Miku by close friends, it wouldn't seem suspicious if I
called her by her first name.
Since being suspected
was a hassle, we took a room at an inn and returned to our [Home].
And since we had the
opportunity, we decided to check each other's status.
"Status
Open."

《Liberated》
Knight of the Holy
Remains
This was my current
status.
We defeated quite a
few monsters on the way to Vero, but my physical LV didn't increase at all. So,
from the middle, I often let Miku deliver the final blow to help her level up.
I didn't think there
were any monsters stronger than the Knight of the Holy Remains.
I should consider that
I had entered a realm where leveling up was no longer possible.
From here on, I saw
that I could only get stronger by increasing my skills, gifts, and stats.
Thanks to working hard
on magic proficiency for the past month and a half, I was finally able to raise
all attribute levels to 10.
Until now, I had been
fighting while leveling up, so the pace was inevitably slow, but this time I
was able to focus solely on leveling up magic, which was a big plus.
Halfway through, I was
able to enjoy earth magic, like crafting, so it wasn't that difficult.
In terms of leveling
up, dark magic was probably the hardest.
It was pretty tough
for me, who was still restless, to meditate with the lights off in my room all
the time.
If I hadn't come up
with a certain method, it would have taken much longer to raise it to LV10.
But thanks to my hard
work, I also obtained the strongest magic of each type, which seemed to be the
level 10 cap bonus.
There were still some
magic spells that I couldn't use, like wind magic and light magic.
When I checked again,
lightning magic and space-time magic only had one LV10 magic, and the other
attributes had one offensive magic and one unusable magic.
I wondered if
lightning magic and space-time magic only had one because their LV10 magic was
strong.
"Hmm... I don't
think I can catch up no matter how hard I try..."
Miku frowned when she
saw my stats written in the notebook.
Even her expression
with her hand on her chin and her mouth in a "へ" shape was cute, so anything goes.
"But it's kind of
inconvenient that we can't see other people's stats without writing them down
like this."
"Apparently,
there's a skill called [Appraisal] that allows you to see other people's status
boards. I found out later that First Princess Misha was using Appraisal to
secretly see everyone's stats from the beginning."
Wow, as expected of
the Grust Kingdom's princess.
She completely ignored
privacy and did whatever she wanted.
There were still many
skills in this world that I didn't have.
Considering the
future, I wanted to aim to acquire skills as well.
"Status Open...
here you go."
I peeked at Miku's
hand, which was adding numbers to the paper.

This was Miku's
current status.
Since she had
basically been acting alone, Miku was the first person whose stats I had seen.
So, when I saw it for
the first time, I was honestly... shocked.
Apparently, my stat
growth was abnormal.
According to her, my
growth rate even surpassed the hero's.
And I even had the
[Training Room], a gift that allowed me to increase the stats I wanted.
Moreover, if I invited
people to my [Home], I could even share this power.
In fact, by using the
training room, Miku's agility had already increased to an incomparable level.
Furthermore, she could
now use dark magic, so she was now a completely dark saintess.
[Please use this gift
to save the world too!]
The words the god
said... might not have been a joke, but the truth.
Miku should start
raising values other than agility soon.
After talking about
that, we went to sleep.
And the next day.
We, who were about to
cross the border into the empire, were stopped in an unexpected way.
"Excuse me, it
seems that a group of wyverns has taken over the highway... you should consider
that crossing the border into the empire will be impossible for a while."
