Being Able to Edit Skills in Another World, I Gained OP Waifus

Chapter 44: A list of trifles, and a short journey to Irgafa

We left the town of Richerda the day after we got into the hot springs.

The army corps that had arrived from the port city of Irgafa consisted of around a dozen knights and nearly 100 foot soldiers. They were so intimidating that I didn’t want to be anywhere nearer than a 100 meters away from them, which made me realize that there probably wasn’t anyone as powerful, both financially and politically, as the lord of the port city of Irgafa.

However, it seemed that stories of us sneaking past army corps had gone a long way, since an orderly soldier came to greet us before departure.

The messenger soldier was about the same age as me, and after telling me what he was going to do, he told us to “Please follow me a little behind the lines. Everyone is still a bit shaken after the attack on Lady Iris.”

It seemed that Irgafa had some kind soldiers as well.

The orderly soldier saluted us, and then he seemed to have just remembered about something.

“I almost forgot. I have a letter from Lady Iris for Nagi Souma.”

“A letter?”

“I don’t know much about it, but it seems to be about a ‘list of trifles’.”

… A “list of trifles”?

Ah, the one I had requested during the battle with the “fake demonkin”.

You’re really upright, Iris.

The word “trifles” must mean that this was supposed to be an official list of regular soldiers that were at fault, but now that they had died together with the fake demonkin, it really wasn’t that necessary.

Still, I felt it would be rude to not accept it.

“Please tell Lady Iris that I’ve thankfully accepted it.”

I received the “list” from the soldier.

The “list” was a tube of parchment sealed with wax. A snake-like dragon-shaped coat of arms had been stamped on the seal.

After the soldier had left, I opened the “list”.

The first thing I saw was Iris’ signature on the top of the paper.

Then, this was written under it:

“To Master Nagi Souma,

I’m giving you the most boring thing I possess.

List of trifles

Iris Hafeumea”

… Huh?

It doesn’t say what she’s giving me. All there was after that was another signature by Iris.

At the bottom, there was a space to write a sign of receipt. Maybe I was supposed to sign there receiving the trifle. But she didn’t write what she was giving me… Maybe she forgot to write it?

I didn’t think Iris would make such a mistake.

Maybe it has a different meaning? I’m not used to official papers in this world after all.

It was impossible to confirm that at the moment. Iris was surrounded by those army corps. She would be too hard to approach, and I simply didn’t have the time to spare before our departure.

Oh well. If you go to Irgafa, we may even meet there anyway.

“So, is everyone ready?”

I closed the list.

When I looked around, everyone was packing their luggage in front of the villa.

“Yes, Master Nagi. I’ve already locked up all the doors and windows!”

“I’ve made sure we’re not leaving anything behind that has our smell.”

“I’ve checked that there’s no chance for a fire to break out anytime soon, so rest assured.”

“If you’re worried, I can take a look around to make sure everything’s been taken care of.”

Cecyl, Rita, Aine, and Leticia all nodded.

Our luggage had been checked. All doors had been locked. We returned the building keys to the orderly soldier.

“All right then, let’s go.”

Goodbye, hot spring town of Richerda.

We left the villa.

A silver line marched through the main streets of the town. We followed that line at a distance.

There seemed to be other adventurers leaving with us as well. Some have been injured in the last battle, and there was a certain pink-haired elf girl I’ve seen somewhere before. Everyone was following that line. We were just another one of those nameless parties, following behind those other adventurers.

The sky was deep blue, and the breeze felt nice.

It takes less than a day to walk to the town port of Irgafa. I thought there couldn’t possibly be any troubles on the way there.

Rather, if any problem would arise that these army corps couldn’t deal with, we wouldn’t be able to do much more than escape, so we would have to take it easy.

We passed through the gate of the hot spring district. When we got on the highway, we picked up the pace.

Then we set out on a short journey to the port city of Irgafa.

As we walked, we decided to check our skills as usual.

The only thing I got from the skill I gained before leaving Metekal was its name, and I had decided that I’d try to learn more about that together with the skills we gained in the hot spring town of Richarda, including their effects.

I decided to go with my skill first. That sounds fine and all, but…

… Umm, guys?

You don’t all have to stick to me so much just to check on your skills, you know?

None of the adventurers or members of the army corps should be able to hear what we’re talking about, after all, they were pretty far ahead of us… Huh? Don’t let your guard down? Don’t underestimate the hearing of a demihuman? You can’t allow yourself to fail to hear your master’s words? Don’t want to be left out? Is that so?

Anyway, starting from my skill.

Nagi Souma

Race: Human

Class: Skill Structure

Unique Skills: [Reconstruction ability Skill?Structure Lv. 3]

Common Skills

[Sword Gifting LV 1] [Building Strike LV 1] [Quick Analysis LV 1] [Foreign World Language LV 5] [Transcendental Sense LV 1] [Delayed Arts LV 1]

I had obtained three skills after the battle in the hot spring town.

[Fluent Fencing LV 1]

Makes it possible to use a sword to parry an opponent’s attack in stream-like flow.

However, it only works against swords. I’d have to make a note on that.

I wouldn’t be laughing if I tried to play it cool and ended up getting split in half with an axe.

[Quick Structure]

Allows for fast skill rebuilding. However, it’s not stable.

I’d have to establish a connection with the rebuilding target for some time, and then I’d need to take the time to stabilize the skill afterwards.

I decided that I’d only use it in case of an emergency.

[Food Negotiation LV 1]

Grants the ability to negotiate with someone else for food ingredients. During that time, it’s possible to communicate with animals and monsters.

It would be better to think of this as the ability to communicate with monsters rather than a negotiation skill. In that sense, it was very OP.

Next up was Cecyl.

Cecyl had become my “Soul Covenant.”

Cecyl Pharott

Race: Monster (Obviously, Dark Elf)

Class: Young-sister-like Fortune Slave who serves as a naturally defenseless wizard

Unique Skill: 【Magic Aptitude LV 3】

Common Skills

[Ancient Language Chanting LV 1] [Ancient Language Interpretation LV 3] [Magic Resistance LV 1] [Magic Detection LV 2] [Appraisal LV 2] [Animal Empathy LV 3]

Special Magic [Momentum Arrow LV 1]

Learned Magic

[Fire Magic LV 1]: [Light] [Flame Arrow] [Fireball]

[Fire Magic LV 2]: [Flame Wall]

Cecyl had only gained one new skill.

It was a skill that had been born after I used [Engage] with her.

[Double Cast]

Allows the user to cast two spells at the same time. Please note that the amount of magic power consumed does not change.

Then, Rita. She had been the most troublesome back in the hot spring district.

Rita Melpheus

Race: Beastfolk

Class: Sad puppy-like Divine Martial Artist

Unique Skill: 【Melee Combat Aptitude LV 5】

Locked Skill 【Divine Power Grasp LV1】

Common Skills

[Divine Martial Arts LV 5] [Divine Protection LV 4] [Singing LV 4] [Presence Sense LV 1] [Unarmed Combat LV 1]

Rita had gained two new skills.

The first one was [Building Strike LV 1], which I gave her, and…

[Area Breaker LV 1]

Destroys the space created by magic or skills.

It was a literally OP skill that could destroy barriers and spatial warps.

It came out pretty nicely, actually.

And finally, Aine, everyone’s favorite big sister maid.

Lately, she seemed to be worried about her chest every time our eyes met, but I wasn’t sure what that was all about. She wouldn’t tell me even if I asked… I hope you’re okay, Aine.

Aine Kurnet

Race: Human

Class: Everyone’s big sister maid

Common Skills:

[Rainbow Wall LV 6] [Cooking LV 9] [Cleaning LV 9] [Pole Fighting LV 2] [Monster Cleanup LV 1] [Memory Cleanup LV 1]

Aine gained a single new skill.

[Sewage Increase LV 1]

Using one’s cleaning tools, one can increase the amount of sewage in an area. The rate of increase is 10% + LV x 10%.

The increased amount of water is then forcibly absorbed by the surroundings, whether it’s soil, plants, or humans.

You need to choose a place, but it turned out to be an area-wide skill that can be used against multiple targets at once.

It’s funny. All that, and it was a skill that only increases sewage with a cleaning tool.

By the way, the cursed sword Regii.

She hasn’t had any changes this time around. Perhaps her skills won’t change at all?

Cursed Sword Regii

Race: Cursed Sword of the Underworld

[Slime Bringer LV 1] [Self Regeneration LV 8]

That was all.

The journey ahead, still following the army corps, continued in a peaceful manner.

Time flew as everyone talked with each other, and the scenery gradually opened up, giving way to the sound of the waves.

“We’re here…”

We arrived one day later after making camp for a single night.

I could smell the tide after through the brick walls.

What was spreading in front of me was this world’s first sea.

This was our destination. The port city of Irgafa.

It had been built along a large peninsula, with short embankments along the sea. There were many piers and ships over there. It looked like a flock of ships with white sails.

The town was lined with brick houses side by side, and in the center of the town was the temple of the “God of Covenant”.

There was a huge mansion near the temple, and that’s where the silver corps were headed to. Does that mean it’s the residence of the lord of Irgafa…? it’s huge. It feels like a small royal palace.

I associated with her so casually because we were just staying there during our journey, but Iris definitely was a girl from a different world…

“We’ve finally arrived, Master Nagi.”

As Cecyl’s hand touched my own hand slightly, I grasped it back. Her tiny fingers respond by joining my grasp.

It had been less than 10 days since we left the autonomous city of Metekal.

We had finally arrived at the port city of Irgafa.

This probably was our final destination.

It was a city whose “whereabouts” weren’t available in my original world.
