Part 6
Diablo stood behind Shera together with Rem and watched over the course of events.
「Now then, please down your name and country of origin.」
Shera took those and started writing characters.
“I’ll have Shera do my part too”, is what Diablo secretly decided.
「’Ka~y. Umm……Shera L. Greenwood……Origin is, Greenwood Kingdom……」
「……Are you the Greenwood Kingdom’s, Greenwood-sama?」
Shera tilted her head in confusion.
Diablo reflexively exchanged glances with Rem.
「Uh~m…………Ah, right, there’s no problem. Now then, I’ll measure your occupation aptitude. Please tell me if you have any aspirations. If you don’t, I’ll take measurements for all three of the occupations, 《Warrior》, 《Archer》, and 《Magician》.」
「Okay, so the Magician measurement. Next, once you have confirmed the explanatory items on this contract, please put your signature and seal of blood at the lower right.」
「Y, yes. After all, it is a contract that says that the Adventurers Association won’t be sued even if you die……」
Diablo started to feel shaken.
「It’s hurts, doesn’t it, a seal of blood.」
After the blood that came out from the cut and turned into something like a ball, she pushed her thumb against the lower right part of the paper.
「Next is the aptitude test, right! Rem! I’ll definitely show you that I’ll have a higher level than you!」
「Ah, please heal the cut on my thumb! You have some kind of healing-type Summoned Beast, right?」
「That’s so mean!」
——I see, I thought that the reason she didn’t listen to what other people said was because she was an idiot or something……but it was because she had that kind of upbringing, huh?
「Uh, uhm……the person over there, if you’d like, could you fill out the documents now……Since you’re R-Rem-san and Shera-sama’s acquaintance, it’d be faster to, take the aptitude test, but……I, I’ve said something intrusive!」
Shera held out the feather pen.
「Hmph, I don’t like doing trivial work such as that. You do it.」
Rem scowled, but she didn’t scramble to write on my behalf.
「Uh, uhm……The signature and the seal of blood, can’t be done through proxy.」
——Though, I don’t want to have any pain.
Shera sparkled as she filled out the new blank form.
「I don’t have anything like that. I……am a sole and absolute being. Or could it be that I need a surname?」
The green girl made a taken aback expression from Shera’s question.
Some kind of misunderstanding was made.
The occupation he was hoping for was, naturally a 《Magician》.
「What’s left is the signature and the seal of blood!」
Before that, he read the explanatory items, just in case.
It seems that things like the Association not taking responsibility for any and all deaths and injuries, that the laws of the country and the regulations of the town take precedence over the Adventurers Association’s rules, and that criminals will have their qualifications suspended were written.
Consenting to it, he wrote his signature with the feather pen.
To think that his dark history of practising writing his character name in cursive in secret would be useful in a place like this!
「Now then……」
This kind of thing was just like an injection and once there was hesitation, it was scary. It won’t hurt. It won’t hurt. Even Shera made a face like it was nothing at all.
It really hurts!
Glugging down.
——It would seem that when I injure myself, the physical defence from the 《The Hollow of Jet Black》 that I have equipped and the defensive barrier for magic don’t activate.
Blood fell onto the counter.
Cutting too much in something like a seal of blood was embarrassing. Making a face like it was natural, while the blood was dribbling, he pressed his thumb beside the signature. Rather than a seal of blood, it was more like it was bloodstained.
However, it started to calm down.
This was probably due to the HP Auto-recovery effect of 《The Distorted Crown》.
「Is this alright?」
「……Y, yes. There’s no problem with it……probably……Uh, uhm, now then, since there seems to only be Magicians, we’ll do the aptitude test and level judgement over here.」
It was a full-length mirror.
He could no longer remember.
It was a mirror that looked like jewelry bordered in gold.
Shera blinked her eyes with surprise.
「……It’s a mirror that measures the strength of magical power. It is used like this.」
*Bou*. The surface shined.
「……By strongly pouring magic power without any hesitation like this, the cloudy glass changes into a mirror.」
「As expected of you, Rem-san. There’s no mistake that you are higher than level 40! Your magic power has become stronger than before, hasn’t it!」
When Rem parted her hand from the mirror, it’s former cloudiness returned.
「I got it! Alright, I’m going to do my best!」
Just like that, she started to growl with a difficult face.
The cloudy mirror clearly reflected Shera’s face.
「Wah, that’s amazing! Being this clear……U, umm, 『Reflecting clearly enough to count the eyelashes』 is, since it went 『to the pit of the stomach』, your level is……30!」
Shera let out a disappointed sounding voice.
——But, Shera’s target was to be higher than Rem after all.
「……It was foolish of you to think that you could surpass me.」
「……That’s not possible……You’ll continue to look up at me for all your life.」
It didn’t show on her face, but it seems that in her heart, she was worried that she might not be judged to be higher than Shera.
