(198) Younger sister route 2
Translator: Tseirp
“ … What’s wrong? Onii . ”
“Erm … how do I say this …”
Now then, how shall I break this to her?
To be honest, I should let her know but Miri was just sincerely happy for me for graduating from being jobless .
Well, after all, being Jobless is only limited to the system, I have actually been earning quite a bit .
Money from being a Peddler … it was Carol who earned those .
Money from hunting monsters … that was done in Haru’s name .
The huge profit I made in Belasra … ah I used all of it to pay tax .
What the heck, even Marina was earning money as a Street Performer so I had no idea how to explain the job I have here .
Just how many times have I had these conflicting thoughts?
“Onii … don’t tell me you’re still Jobless?”
“Eh!? How — —”
“Oh, it’s nothing . ”
Miri averted her eyes and said as she touched her head . That was Miri’s signature gesture when she does something bad .
“The Church Priest…”
“What did you do to the priest!?”
“I manipulated him a little to get information . Nevertheless, I only got information that Onii never came to the Church so I wondered if you were perhaps still Jobless . ”
Miri said ‘manipulated a little’ lightly like she was saying ‘went to town to buy some stuff’ . I couldn’t get myself to be angry at her given how she acted as though she had nothing to do with it like that . No, I have to properly scold her .
“Idiot, don’t go around manipulating people . ”
I chopped Miri’s head . It’s domestic violence . DV .
But Miri looked like she enjoyed it as she stuck her tongue out .
“Sorry~”
It didn’t look like she was apologizing sincerely but I let it slide since she already apologized .
“Yeah, like Miri said, I am still Jobless . ”
“I see … (I thought it was impossible when Koshmar said it but it was actually true . )”
“Hn? What did you say, Miri?”
“Erm, why Jobless? Couldn’t you have changed job for free?”
“Yeah … it will be quicker once you see my status . I don’t really want to talk about it for long in front of the guild so let’s go in . ”
I urged Miri to enter the Adventurers Guild .
Maybe all the Adventurers Guilds were the same as the Adventurers Guild in Port Kobe was also a tavern-cum-Adventurers Guild and there was a large number of Fishermen (I sneaked a peek at their jobs) drinking even during the day .
Miri ignored those men and briskly walked to the reception counter and placed her Adventurers Certificate on it .
“I would like to apply for a party . Please temporarily transfer this person to my party . ”
“Please, thank you . ”
“ … Please, thank you . ”
I found Miri’s honorifics lacking so I reminded her and she directly repeated after me after a beat .
The receptionist man looked at the two of us and laughed wryly .
“Understood . The processing fee will be five sense, would that be all right?”
The receptionist said so I took five copper coins from my item bag and placed it on the counter .
“Thank you . How long shall the temporary period be?”
“Is one day enough?”
“Yeah, that should be enough . One day please . ”
I agreed and requested it with the receptionist man .
“Miri should enter Haru’s party tomorrow too . ”
“Eh … Then wouldn’t Haurvatat become my party leader? But I was once that child’s master in my previous life . ”
“Ah, I guess that would be tough . ”
To give an example, it would be like a superior who switched jobs and had to work under his subordinate from his previous workplace .
“Won’t it be fine if Onii just becomes the leader?”
“No, Miri . Didn’t I already explain it to you just now?”
I replied ambiguously .
I couldn’t register with the Adventurers Guild while being Jobless and I can’t apply for a party in the Adventurers Guild if I wasn’t an Adventurer .
And I didn’t know of any other methods to apply for a party apart from doing so in the Adventurers Guild .
“You can explain later . In addition, we’ll like to request the use of the private room – – for 30 minutes . ”
Miri said as she placed ten copper coins .
I see, we certainly needed a private room to talk about my secret of being Jobless and Miri being the Demon Lord . I totally forgot about it .
“Understood, this is the key to the private room . Would you like an explanation regarding the usage of the room?”
“No need . ”
“These are the forms for the temporary transfer . ”
The man handed us the papers so Miri and I filled them in .
“Onii, looks like you’ve already learned to write . ”
Miri asked quietly .
“Yeah, it was a piece of cake . ”
I replied but, in actual fact, it was thanks to the skill I had .
After that, we handed the forms in and the temporary transfer was complete .
Now that I think about it, how exactly did Miri register with the Adventurers Guild?
Being a Demon Lord … as I was lost in thought,
“Hn? What’s wrong, Onii?”
Miri noticed my gaze and asked with a smile .
“It’s nothing, I’ll ask later . ”
I replied as we moved to the private room .
The private room had a table and chairs as well as a one-person karaoke box so the room was quite narrow but the walls didn’t seem that thick .
It looked like sound might still leak outside .
“It’ll be all right as long as we don’t speak in loud voices . ”
“But I guess it’s better to have some insurance . ”
I replied .
“[Silent Room]”
And wrapped the entire room with the 「Silent Room」 skill I acquired from Life Magic II .
With this, there would be no worries about sound leaking out .
“Oo, Onii can even use such magic . You sure have grown . ”
“Don’t be so happy for my growth . Are you my mother!?”
“Yup yup, I’ve fallen for you once again . ”
“Don’t speak nonsense . ”
I know you think strongly of family but we’re not in such romantic love relationship .
“So, can I see Miri’s status?”
“Yup, it’s fine . I’ll be looking at Onii’s status after all . ”
I got her permission so I chanted the status open magic .
“Status Open, Miri!”
But there was no reaction .
Why?
“Erm, Onii . Currently, Miri’s name in this world is Miryuu . ”
“Ah, I see … Then . ”
I smiled wryly and chanted the magic once again .
“Status Open, Miryuu . ”
Miri’s status appeared after I cast the spell .
… Hn?
What’s this?
“Miri, your status seems ordinary . Well, I guess it’s in the strong category . ”
“Eh? Ah … Sorry sorry . Take a look again . ”
“? All right . ”
I couldn’t really understand but I followed Miri’s instructions .
“Status Open, Miryuu . ”
I chanted . Miri also tagged along .
“Status Open, Ichinojo . ”
Ooo, this time I could see her true status .
Why was that? I thought to myself and immediately got the answer .
【Status Fabrication】
She could fabricate her status using that skill . But, just now during the battle, I could see through her job as Demon Lord when I used Job Appraisal so it couldn’t deceive the Job Appraisal skill . Well, Jobless skills had always been an exception .
Nevertheless, what the heck . She’s way too powerful .
“Miri, your status … Miri?”
For some reason, Miri’s complexion was seriously pale .
“Onii … what … what’s with this status!? Isn’t this broken performance!?”
She commented so I verified my own status .
I just only confirmed my own status and realized what Miri was referring to .
“I know what you want to say . Why are my skills all sword skills right? All my skills are hidden in my status management . ”
“That’s not the problem here . Why is Onii so strong!? Why do you have a ton of job mastered even though you are Jobless!?”
“Look at your own status . That will answer your question . ”
I said .
Miri looked like wanted to ask a lot more but she confirmed her own status .
And she was once again surprised when she did so .
“Eh? I have two jobs … why?”
I didn’t check but the Commoner job has probably been added to her job column along with Demon Lord .
“It’s because of my skill . Using my skill, I can assign two jobs for my companions . And I can assign five jobs for myself . ”
I explained my Jobless skill and told her that my sub jobs were Fire Magician, Water Magician, Wind Magician and Earth Magician .
Miri hesitated for a moment .
“Onii, it’s the first time I’ve seen a person with four side jobs despite being Jobless . ”
And commented with the expected ironic statement .
