The Man Picked Up By The Gods
/ The Man Picked up by the Gods Volume 1 Chapter 11
TL Notes:
Here's your crack boys. Remember to say grace.
I added the changes from the status in the prologue here. It wasn’t there in the raws so I just added it myself.
Regarding Template:
Mental Resistance -> Emotional Resistance
Super Heal Power -> Super Healing
Endurance -> Stronger Endurance
Magic Restore Speed Up -> Magic Recovery Rate UP
Translation stuff:
I know nothing about archery but I’m guessing kyuudou’s relationship to kyuujutsu is as kendou to kenjutsu, the former has been changed to a sport friendly version while the latter is about killing. I don’t know someone who knows their stuff please explain.

Title
Gekokujou (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gekokuj%C5%8D?oldid=459411366) The Man Who Overcame a Life of Misfortune [Alternatively: The Man Who Overcame a Life of Unhappiness] (During the prologue this was originally: The Man Who Lost His Life to Bad Luck) Favorite Child of the Gods Disciple of the Sage Disciple of the Martial God Divine Protections
I was told beforehand that my Magic Power will increase once I get here so that’s fine.
There’s quite a bit of skills that had levelled up. Looking at this, the Magic Skills are quite numerous… hmm? Survival Skills… what is this? Now that I think about it, I should have had some Survival Skills but disappeared for some reason, is this it? It also looks like the titles have changed for the better, and this disciple thing, it’s that, right? That thing that was written on the letter the gods sent to me when I got here, to make it so that my skill level won’t seem suspicious.
(TL Note: His Survival Skills used to be written in katakana and now it’s written as生存術, seizonjutsu, as for the signifance of that I don't know. Also I'm keeping it as Survival Skills for now)
And as for the divine protections, I have the divine protections of the three gods and the God of Wine.
Well in any case, let’s do as she said and hide everything else aside from the name, age, and race… Done.
“I’m done”
“Ahahaha! I’m over here!”
Looking at the direction of the voice, through the window, I saw some children wearing worn-out clothes, playing. When I saw them, the woman explained to me.
“They are the children that this church is looking after. They are always cheerful and when they’re done with their chores, they go outside and play like that.”
An orphanage, huh? Well I don’t know what circumstances their family has, but I understand.
“Sorry for making you wait guys”
“Thank you very much”
Immediately, I also gave my thanks.
“Thank you very much”
“It’s because the information in the status board is one’s personal information and is a secret from everyone. That’s her showing her consideration.”
“This room was also prepared with the intention of allowing the people that have been baptized and their family to be able to talk about the status here without being bothered”
“That’s why you should keep your information a secret. And if there’s something you don’t know, I can give you advice, but if there’s something you don’t want to talk about then you don’t have to talk about it, ok?” – Madam
These people are so gentle…. Well then regarding which to tell them about… well there’s something I need to show them first.
“Got it… but… there’s something I need to show you first”
“Yes? … !? Ryouma-san, this!”
My magic power isn’t as high as Elia’s but it’s close. After that I showed the other four the information field for my magic power as well. When I did, their eyes opened wide.
“I lost to Elia… but… it shouldn’t be that different”
“I only meant it as a joke that time but to think that you would actually be on the same level as Elia in terms of magic power”
As I said that I showed my different magic skills.
“All the low level attributes are over lv 2, and considering that your mid-level attributes also have level 2 or 3… it’s more than enough” – Rheinhart
“Because I was living in the forest, I had to use magic, and so it somehow ended up like this… Most likely, fire and water leveled up during cooking and when I had to take baths. And… as for Earth and Space Magic, I used them for hunting… so, they were mostly used everyday” - Ryouma
“Fumu… did you use things like attack magic?” - Sebasu
“I see, so because you’ve been using magic a lot in your daily life, you ended up levelling up. Then in the case, I suggest you practice attack magic since, there’s no disadvantage if you can use it… and also so that you’ll be able to deal with a monster that can’t be killed with anything except for magic” – Sebasu
… I forgot. Right, there was that kind of monster. Just like the monster of the light novel in the other world, Template, that kind of monster. It’s because I‘ve isolated myself in the forest for too long that I completely forgot. Anyhow, I’ll train in offensive magic from now on.
“Now that you mention it, I think I’d like to try that out”
“You have a lot of advantage in regards to magic so don’t waste it, ok?” – Rheinbach
As I said that, Rheinbach-sama nodded at me with a satisfied face. However, after that he made a serious face and said this.
“Ryouma-kun there’s something I need to tell you beforehand”
“Your abilities compared to kids your age, are ridiculously high. Because of that there will be many people who will come at you with bad intentions. If you don’t want that to happen then hide your abilities and quickly gain a social status so that you may be able to protect yourself. Only, in your case, your abilities are too high, so hiding it will definitely be difficult. So you should register at the guild quickly, and get a high rank. Regardless of what happens, we will also lend you our strength but it’s important that you, yourself, takes care.” –
Said Rheinbach-sama as the madam followed up.
“In your case since your abilities are too high, it becomes obvious that you have divine protection. We only had a vague feeling, but after seeing your skills it becomes clear that you have divine protection. You need to be careful, someone who possess divine protection will definitely be targeted.”
Seriously?... It’s true I’m not really restraining myself but was it that weird? I better be careful.
“I understand, I’ll be careful.”
So we did the baptism in the church and then after that I was warned and now we are about to go to the Tamer Guild.
Going to the Tamer Guild, in its surrounding there’s a place where many magical beasts are connected, and there many places for carriages to stop at. Just as what you’d expect from a mining town, magical beasts that work for transportation are numerous. Also, it seems that it’s ok to bring small magical beasts inside the guild, so if I were to make the slimes use the compress skill, I’d be able to bring them in.
Inside the guild there were only mostly humans, but from time to time I would see some Goblins and Kobolds who were made to carry things. In there, with Rhenhart-san leading us, we went to the counter where the staff member was at.
“Welcome to the Tamer Guild Branch of the Town of Gimuru. May I know what the purpose of your visit may be?”
“Understood. Please go inside.”
Under the guidance of the staff member we were led inside, and were served tea. And after a few minutes, another staff member, a male, who wore pompous clothes came in. At that time, even without him saying, I had a bad feeling from him. … What is this? This bad feeling…
“Welcome. I am, the Branch Manager, Matthew Ganteyn. My greetings to the famous Household of Jamil. Everyone it is my pleasure to be meeting you all today. Your errand for today is the registration of the Ojousama, yes?”
“This kid?”
The man who named himself Matthew saw me. At that moment I noticed it, this kind of guy is exactly like the higher ups in my previous life. They flatter those above them but fail to remember even the names of those below them. They’re horrible people who refuse to look at those below them as humans and treat them like tools. This guy is that type. From the looks of things, it seems that my existence hasn’t even entered his sight until now.
He probably decided it based on the clothes. Those toady eyes he had before when talking to Rheinhart-san, without changing his expression, changed the moment he saw me. In his eyesight were a combination of contempt and jealousy. Even now you could see his eyes asking, “Why is someone like you with the members of the Household of the Duke?”
“This person too?”
“Understood… Hey” (TL Note: I can’t show it in English but he basically goes from heaven to hell in terms of politeness here)
Matthew took 2 sheets of paper from the staff member behind him and gave it to me and Elia.
“Please fill out this form. Do you need someone to write for you?”
“Thank you for your concern. But, I can write just fine.”
“Slime”
“No, I won’t say it’s bad but Slimes are weak monsters. So, unfortunately, there are only few missions that Slimes can accept in this town. The jobs of Slave Magic Users in this town is mainly the transport of things from the mines, so at the very least you’d need a Goblin or a Kobold. Otherwise, you’d only be able to take the introductory missions. “
Matthew gave that excuse but it didn’t work and the Madam came with the covering fire.
“Certainly, the work may be a bit few. However, because his master died while he was learning he was not able to learn completely. So, couldn’t you be a bit more understanding?”
The first one was Elia, and after her I put my board on top of that stone block, and then a character showed on the metal plate.
“With this, the two of you have been registered. We welcome the two new members of our Tamer Guild.”
After Matthew said that we moved into our next topic.
“Well then, I heard that today, you have information to give me.”
“Yes, this child was able to tame a slime that we four believe to have never been tamed before. If you investigate it, I’m sure you’ll find there to be no information of it all. We believe it to be a new type”
“Ahh, yeah…”
“Right… Well then, members of the Household of Jamil, I still have things I must attend to and I apologize as I am unable to see you out, please excuse me and I’ll take my leave here.”
“Thank you very much”
I and Elia gave our thanks, and after that we left the guild.
“Well then, what should we do now?”
“… Because it’s mortifying… Ryouma-san has always been researching and yet, Ryouma-san aren’t you mortified?”
“Ryoma-san…”
“Ah, yes, what is it?”
“Nothing… it just seems that my speech has come back completely. In the past I was surround a lot by those kind of people so it looks my speech which was deeply ingrained by guys like those came back.”
“That’s right. Ryouma-kun, I don’t like the way you talk now, it’s too cold”
“It’s similar to how nobles talk, it’s pressuring and make me feel uncomfortable. Ryoma-san, please talk just as you had before” or so… complained the Madam.
Being told that… well, whatever, let’s go with the more casual one then.
“Got it. Then I’ll do my best to talk just as usual.”
“Well it will be good if you take it slowly, well then what will you do now? Are you going back to the lodging?”
“Right… I’m uncertain whether or not you can receive a justifiable appraisal from the person at the Tamer’s Guild. So you should go at all out here, you should show what you’re capable of.”
“If there’s something make sure you report”
“Go at while being relaxed”
As I was receiving various encouragements from everyone, the receptionist along with a man with a good body build, entered the practice area.
“You are the examiner for today?”
“And you guys would be his companions?”
“Do feel free to watch, however, please don’t try to meddle with the examination”
“Then, the whistle will be the signal. Do your best”
As he said that the guy handed me the quiver and he backed down. I held the bow in my hands and waited for the signal.
