Chapter 37
Tenji was facing Kaido in his office.
"Where should we start with?"
"Oh, by the way, I won't waste my ti talking about Tenji-kun to anyone else. You can trust ."
Kaido sat down on the sofa facing the office and drank a cup of tea while relaxing. He sipped his tea and smiled softly at Tenji.
Tenji was still a little nervous, but he was more relaxed than he had expected to be.
"Personally, you an?"
"Yes, yes, because Leon doesn't tell anything. He's all hard to follow, telling not to get too involved, or to just keep my heads up."
"Ohhh, I see..."
"Well, it's just my personal desire, so if there's sothing you don't want to talk about, don't say it. I'm not going to force you to talk about your calling, and no senior explorer wants to talk about his or her calling either."
"Hahaha," Kaido gave a blank laugh.
Suddenly, he rembered so bitter experience, and his eyes looked like a dead fish for just a mont. However, he quickly switches his interest to Tenji.
Tenji also took a deep breath once to let out the tension and refresh the air in his lungs.
"First of all, have you ever heard of a 'special calling'?" Tenji asked.
Tenji first decided to ask about the grade 'special' which he had never heard of.
Kaido pondered as he searched through his mory, then unconsciously reached for his tea and began to sip it continuously. He looked up as if he rembered sothing.
"Special grade, huh?... The na itself doesn't sound familiar, but it might ring a bell."
"Oh, really?"
Tenji, expecting to be told that 'I don't know', involuntarily lifted his hips and bent forward.
Looking at Tenji with a serious expression, Kaido replies.
"About fifteen years ago, maybe? After Leon returned from a first-grade dungeon in Arica, he reported to that he saw a monster with white eyes. All the attacks from Leon were ineffective against it.
"Is that the monster with the white eyes that Mr. Leon's attacks don't work on?"
"You learned about them at the Explorers High School, didn't you?"
"Yes, of course I know."
Monster pupil color indicates strength and grade.
The fifth grade is "purple", the fourth grade is "blue", the third grade is "green", the second grade is "yellow", the first grade is "red", and the zero grade is "red and purple".
So far, everyone knows about it, and its so common knowledge that even ordinary junior high school students can learn about it from watching the news and reading articles.
There was no such grade with 'white eyes' there. So, Kaido answered by connecting the white eyes with Tenji's 'special grade calling' which he had never heard of.
"Well, it doesn't matter that they're white."
"No, it's very helpful."
"Well, that's great. The "special calling", from the way the word, is special, isn't it? In terms of grade classification, is it above grade zero?"
"That's what I'm thinking too. Or maybe it simply can't be expressed in terms of grading categories."
"I see, there's the possibility of an off grade calling. If I get any information about it then I'll be the first to tell you, Tenji-kun."
"Oh, thank you!"
"Yeah. Do you have any more information to disclose?"
In response to Kaido's words, Tenji asks the next question.
"Do you know of any calling that has such an ability to summon sothing?" Tenji asked another question.
"Summoning?... There are so, but very few. I know that kind of calling that duplicates weapons, a calling that stores items, a calling that generates vast amounts of water from a vial, and a calling that summons a gate like a wall. All of them are generally about summoning so sort of thing or items."
"I knew it... Like it was like that too, as far as I could tell from my library research. I've never heard of summoning a living thing, have you heard about it?"
"Creatures?... Well, that's a bit new to ."
"I know, it seems that my calling is a first lineage after all."
"What are you summoning?"
To Kaido's obvious question, Tenji answers with the answer he had prepared.
"I don't know yet but I feel sothing."
"Ahh, you're still a student, aren't you? As expected, you can't master your calling right now."
Tenji hid the existence and the summoning of the "Goblin".
Tenji hid the existence of the "Goblins" from others by daring to use the word "creature" instead of "demons". If people knew that he had a calling for summoning demons, which were clearly evil, they would not have a very good image of him.
And summoning Hell Beasts wasn't just for Goblins, soday there might be other Hell Beasts which could be more dangerous. It was the right thing to do with the uncertainty.
"I may not know much about my calling while I'm still a student. May I ask you the next question?"
"Yeah, okay. What information is going to pop up next?"
Kaido bends forward a little with excited eyes.
It appeared that Mr. Kaido was simply interested in Tenji's calling.
Tenji's cheeks unintentionally relaxed at the sight of Kaido's sowhat boyish cuteness.
Tenji drops a bomb just like that.
"Can you asure what grade this weapon is?"
The one that he took out was the "Red Demon Sword", a weapon from the Red Demon series.
Suddenly, the red and black sword ca out of the empty space as Tenji twisted his hands holding the hilt. It ca out without a sound but with so spark of light. Kaido was about to sit up and take notice.
In a blink of an eye, Tenji found himself gripping a sword.
No wonder, Kaido was surprised.
"Ohhhhh Myyyy Goddddddddd!!!" Kaido scread in surprise.
"Oh, I see. I'm sorry."
It was already a common sight for Tenji.
Although others could not see it, Tenji could see the 'Book of Enma' fluttering noisily, the letters turning silver and glowing with a dazzling light.
For others, it appears as if it ca out of nowhere without warning.
"I'm so, so amazing... I am so surprised, but it's really amazing. What did you just do?"
"Uhmmmm, I summoned a weapon."
"From your mind?"
"Yes, I think so."
Again, Tenji withheld information.
To be precise, it is to touch the silver letters by way of the 'Book of Enma', and to rember the item in one's head. However, Tenji hid the existence of the 'Book of Enma'.
Still, he felt that Kaido was sohow hiding sothing from him.
"I see. Let's take so asurents then. Wait a minute."
Kaido said and got up from the couch and went to the next room.
When he erged from that room in less than ten seconds, he had one item in his hand.
Tenji inwardly gutted that the item ca out just as he had imagined.
The item is roughly the kind of expensive item that can't be owned by an individual and is owned by major guilds or large corporations.
So there was no way Tenji could use that item. Although the high school has it, it's basically forbidden for students to use it.
"You know this, right?"
"Yes, 'MP Atomic asuring Pearls', right?"
"Exactly! Well, it's a simplified version. As expected of the students of Explorers High School, you know it. Well then, I'll asure it quickly."
Kaido says that and tells Tenji to put that sword on the desk.
Tenji did as he was told and gently placed the 'Red Demon Sword' on the desk, and Kaido let the item gently touch the sword. With just a mont's touch, the 'MP Atomic asurent Pearl' began to glow with seven different colors.
"I've never seen it before."
"Oh, really?I've often seen Leon bring ho items that I've never seen before, but it's certainly not sothing you see very often with regular students."
"Yes, it glows such a beautiful color."
"Oh yeah, this is surprisingly beautiful. Ah, I think we're about to see the results."
Just as Kaido said, the light of the 'MP Atomic asurent Pearl' slowly dimd down, and within the pearl, there was sothing like a thin layer of text visible.
Tenji and Kaido peeked into it.
