BXBX NOVEL Chapter 294
Translator: Tseirp
I surprised myself . I realized that I have been using the fact that I was Jobless as a routine to depreciate myself .
Even though it is Jobless in the system, it actually assisted Carol’s case to let her work as a Peddler and, although it happened through the course of events, I was given the rank of Associate Baron . I could defeat monsters, earn money through blacksmithing and even though I didn’t have a regular job, I could earn sufficient money . To the extent that I can easily provide for Haru and Carol if I marry them both .
So I kept telling myself .
Even if I was Jobless, that Jobless transcended jobless . It was Neo Jobless .
The strongest Jobless which boasts unrivaled strength and skills that transcend humanity .
So even though I felt shame from being Jobless, somewhere in my heart I held a sense of superiority — no, I was trying to hold that sense .
But it was different now that I was no longer Jobless .
As expected, I held a sense of disgust toward being Jobless .
I was anxious when I became a Thief but when Jobless changed to Commoner, it felt as though the locks on my straitjacket came off .
And yet, asking me to return to Jobless is as though asking me to wrap myself in chains, fasten a padlock and swallow the key .
I don’t want that .
“I thought you would say that but there will be extra service for Master?”
Neete whispered to me . Feeling her breath on my ear felt strange .
“I already have what I need if you are refering to night service . ”
“It is night service but it is a service Master doesn’t have . ”
“Like I said, that —”
“Even if it is a service that concerns Master’s important people —Haurvatat and Carol?”
“I won’t ask to stop using the term Master but stop referring to them by their names . They are both your seniors . ”
“If you put it that way, there are no humans who are younger than me but — understood . It concerns Haurvatat-san and Carol-san . ”
… If it is a service that concerns both of them, I can’t make a decision on my own .
Well, as long as they are not present, I have to make the decision but I still need to hear the detailed story .
It’s not like I am only connected with Haru through night service . It is fine even if there isn’t any .
But, why does it only concern those two?
Does Marina not qualify to be in my companion?
“So, what is that service?”
“The skill called Kin Conversion . ”
“Kin Conversion?”
I didn’t understand . Now that I think about it, I recall Koshmar-sama saying something along the lines of Haru and Carol being my dependents . It happened around the time we were in the Gomaki Village dungeon?
But they were dependents in the sense that they were my companions — or in a negative way, slaves . In this case, that means the dependents she was referring to were a different matter?
I was lost .
“What will happen if I use that skill . ”
“People who become Master’s kin will be able to use a certain portion of skills that Master can use in an inferior state . ”
“Inferior state?”
“Master can use the spell Copy, right? It is the same . ”
The spell Copy — meaning Fake Magic huh?
I see, they will be able to use an inferior copy of the spells I am able to use .
How is that related to night service?
“Koshmar-sama forecast that with the Kin Conversion skill, if Master converts Haurvatat-san into your kin, she should be able to use an inferior version of Hikikomori . ”
“That means Haru will be able to create her own world? With My World skill . ”
“The inferior version and the real version is different . The kin will not be able to construct their own world with their Hikimori skill . It only means that they will be able to enter and exit from the My World we live in . ”
Guh, what a choice .
Isn’t she asking me to choose while dangling a skill that I probably can’t get, just like an itch that can’t be reached?
If that was true, even if Haru and I were in separate locations, we will be able to meet at any time as long as we decide on a time to meet .
We would be able to flirt around .
That certainly ties into night service and it was something I lacked at the moment .
However, I would have to return to Jobless …
“Master, Koshmar-sama isn’t asking you to remain Jobless forever, you know? You only need to reach the peak for Jobless . According to my superior, Torerul-sama’s calculations, if Master’s Jewel Turtle farm goes smoothly in My World, Master should reach the peak of Jobless in another 5 years . ”
Has my Jewel Turtle farm been found out?
But it is true that if that farm proceeds smoothly and I expand My World and its scale, I should be able to earn experience points easily .
” … 5 years … 5 years huh . ”
I would be 25 years old 5 years later . Right, if a university student fails his entrance exam one year and graduates through university, he would be 25 years old .
In other words, for me, returning to Jobless would be like becoming a student?
If I think about it, being a high school dropout, feeling like a university student would be … hmm but Jobless …
“All ri — no, wait a moment . ”
“You’re so indecisive, Master . ”
“You can say that but returning to Jobless is —”
“If Haurvatat-san and Carol-san become Master’s kin, they will be able to use just a little of his strength and the probability that they will be injured will decrease, right?”
” … All right . Tell me the way to return to Jobless . ”
I nodded and asked Neete .
Now then, how do I return to Jobless?
“By using the Job Stealing Gem . ”
