Inferior Magic Swordsman: Using the Skill Board to Become the Strongest Chapter 41: Setting a Title

Chapter 41: Setting a Title

”I was worried that it took a long ti, it has beco quite late …”

After returning to my room at the inn, I summoned the skill board.

The self-proclaid god Nesis told to check the Title option on my skill board.

I wanted to confirm it imdiately after being told by Nesis. But I had to delay exploring the titles because Esther was with the whole ti.

I opened the skill board. However, the end of the available skill selection cannot be seen.

I’m getting tired of swiping, then I rembered, “The trees could be collapsed,” and so I went to the top and collapsed the tree.

“Why didn’t I realize that the tree is collapsible…”

I wasted a lot of ti because of my stupidity.

I tapped the blank field on the title option that I found.

Then, the selection of titles that can be equipped erged in a separate window.

“There are quite a lot … What the hell are these!?”

_______________________________________________________________

I looked at the list of titles that erged and pondered for a while.

「…………」

I pour water into the wooden cup provided in the room using [water supply] and drank it all at once.

After drinking water and calming myself, I looked at the skill board again.

First, the soul reaper. It’s a title I don’t rember getting at all. However, in a conversation with Nesis, it beca clear that my [Magic Sword] had a special effect on humans.

Perhaps it’s the title obtained from that connection? I can guess, but I don’t have a lot of information.

Next are Lost and Inferior. These ones are obvious. I have been called by these nas many tis since I ca to Finlis, and that’s why those are on the title list.

“Tomato bastard … well, have I been called that many?”

To be included in the title list after being called only a few instances…

The conditions for obtaining the title are quite loose.

Dog Guardian. This is also a mystery, but Toru has a section that cos to mind.

After entering the Finlis Forest, I encountered Silver Wolves many tis. However, I have never killed one and just drove them away.

Perhaps that is the condition for getting this title.

Advertisents

The Master Herb Collector is as the na suggests.

There is no doubt that it was obtained by collecting a lot of dicinal herbs.

“Is Giant Killer defeating opponents with a level difference of 10 or more? Rock Worm Killer is acquired after killing a lot of Rock Worms.”

I defeated a considerable number of rock worms, including the ones in the listone cave.

There is no doubt that this led to the acquisition of the title.

However, I have also defeated a large number of goblins.

However, the title of Goblin Killer has not yet been unlocked.

“The difference is… not just the number?”

In the future, I decided to check if the title will appear while defeating goblins.

So far good. So of them were not convincing, but they are not beyond my scope of understanding.

However, the problem is these titles.

“Why have I been blessed by so many gods?”

Forcels, Alphas, Agni, Hertia, Amanohito, and Nesis.

I was blessed by all six pillars involved in the creation of Eargard.

“Blessings … going to church, probably? Amanohito didn’t have a church though.”

If so, maybe it was because I moved to Eargard.

In any case, what I got from all the gods is a great haul of blessings.

“Maybe these are just minor blessings, not enough to be considered as empowering.”

Is the blessing of the gods in this world about the red stamp that I can get if one goes to a shrine or temple?

I am not a local Eargard person, could not judge the value of the blessing.

Aside from that, there is only one strange title from the gods.

“Only Nesis gave the title of a servant … Does she treat differently than the other gods!?”

A servant (しもべ) can an a nial servant (召使いや) or a manservant (下僕). [T/N: The difference between the two servants: a nial servant is the lowest of the low servant can be a serf or peasant, a manservant (retainer) has a salary and often cos from a branch family or a lower-ranked family. Ask google sensei for more info.]

I’m about to cry with the difference in the treatnt of the god who normally should give a blessing.

(After I’ve cleaned the church so well. How terrible…)

In the first place, I have no intention of becoming a Servant of Nesis.

As if it was said that cleaning the church was a servant’s job…

“Is this is the first login bonus?”

If so, it’s a nuisance and not a bonus.

“Is there a way to remove this title…”

I can’t help but want to grind my teeth. However, I’m not a god so I could not think of a way to return the title given by God.

After looking at the titles for a while.

I wonder which of the titles to set.

Lost, Inferior, and tomato bastard are out of the question. Needless to say, I’m excluding those from the options.

Next is Dog Guardian and a Master Herb Collector. Those sound good, but it seems that the benefits when setting either title are small, so I will exclude those too.

“Is there really a status up if I set a title in the first place?”

I regretted not asking Nesis about it.

No answer will co out even if I worry about such things.

Titles in gas that I have played usually have additional effects.

Also, Nesis told to set it up. Since she took the trouble to tell I think that it has so effect.

“The Soul Reaper is … well. There seems to be a special effect, but it seems that the effect is sothing special.”

From a middle schooler standpoint, it feels like a strong title.

However, I feel that so special effect might be added instead of improving my status.

The effect of the title cannot be confird using the skill board though.

It would be scary if the soul reaper had a fatal effect on human beings.

It is dangerous to just set it without thinking.

“Giant Killer probably improves status when facing against a stronger enemy. Is Rock Worm Killer going to improve my status against Rock Worms? I wonder, Rock Worm Killer is already good, but Giant Killer is a little bit more attractive.”

I will include Giant Killer as an option.

All that remains are the blessed by the gods’ series and Nesis’ servant… the retainer of God.

I drink the water and used [water supply] on the empty cup.

“First, servant is out of the question–“

When I tried to remove it from my options, the glass of water on the table spilled on its own.

“Oh my god. I wonder if I snagged it or sothing.”

It soaked the table from top to bottom.

I dried wet table and floors with [drying].

I picked up the cup and fill it with water again.

“Well, servant should be excluded–“

The cup fell down again.

I stared at the cup.

“… Because it’s out of the question to be a servant–“

The cup fell off the table and made a clattering noise.

“Are you watching!?”

I shouted while staring at the ceiling.

However, there is no reaction.

I looked up at the ceiling for a while before fixing my composure.

(If anyone else sees this scene, they’ll think I’m so crazy person …)

I blushed at my weird behavior, quickly used [drying] on the wet table and floor again.

Then I held the cup in my hand and squeeze it firmly.

Nesis’ servant is out of the question. There is no room for that.

It’s a blessing title that will be put aside.

Forcels is justice. Alphas is technology.

Agni fighting. Hertia is magic.

Amanohito controls nature.

“The best thing is, after all, I am an adventurer. So probably Agni.”

As I muttered, the cup began to rattle and roll.

I can hear Nesis screaming “Why !?”

The servant of Nesis receives an image closer to a God rather than a simple blessing.

As it is closer to God, it will also have the effect of increasing stats.

However, I feel that I will likely be forced into difficult tasks from Nesis.

A manservant is just…

“I wish it had so effect just by unlocking it, even if I don’t set it.”

But there are no such gifts in the world.

I gave up and decided to set [Blessed by Agni] since it seems to be the most beneficial to adventurers.

Will my bad luck end?

When I tapped the title with my finger, the cup shook extrely violently.

The shaking caused my aim to go awry.

“Ah”

_______________________________________________________________

>> ○ Title [] → [Nesis servant]

_______________________________________________________________

「…………」

I have this extre urge to throw the cup in my hand with all my might.

I repeatedly breathed many tis, suppressing the urge to go ballistic.

“… It’s okay. The title can be changed anyway–“

_______________________________________________________________

>> The title [Nesis Servant] cannot be changed.

_______________________________________________________________

No matter how many tis I tap, the title selection screen does not appear.

“… Gugigi !!”

I barely bite the curses behind my teeth.

And the cup shook as if to ridicule .

–Pan !!

The cup burst into pieces while in the palm of my hand.

“The next ti we et; I will rember…”

Tears of blood-filled heart and I will make Nesis feel the full extent of my grudge with all my might.

With my failure to set my title, I tried to sleep.

However, I suddenly think again and sit down on my bed.

Even if I’m angry, sleeping like this is unproductive.

So I decided to turn my unfocused anger into pre-sleep magic training.

“[Lighting] [Lighting] [Lighting]…… Ku, my eyes!”

I cast the spell on the futon more than usual, and I had to close my eyes.

I erased the excessive [Lighting] that was cast hastily.

“Hmm. If there is any good way … That’s right. There’s [blind]!”

[Blind] is a dark magic that has the effect of blinding the opponent’s eyes.

As a test, I used [blind] on myself.

“It’s dark … or am I just blinded?”

I don’t know if my optic nerve is blocked and I can’t see it, or if my eyes are covered with black mist and I can’t see through it.

I cast [lighting] in front of .

“Hmm? Does it look like there’s a little light shining through? Okay, this is–!”

I put [Lighting] in the futon one after another on the other side where no one might notice.
