Evil God Chapter 60

Recently, there were lots of strife in the Briton Kingdom's capital, Rhodan.

As a result, Cantabridge Academy had been forced to close down on countless occasions.

Because it will reopen today, I headed to school.

When I enter the cla.s.sroom, it becomes noisy at once.

"Oh, the hero-sama's here."

Around me, a crowd forms.

Looking closer, people from other cla.s.ses came too.

"Exactly who are you?" "Why can you do things like that?", Questions like these were thrown at me.

Most of what happened was written in the newspapers.

Of course, I can’t tell them my true ident.i.ty.

"Hey hey, are you free today?”

One of the girls from cla.s.s grabs onto my right arm.

"What do you think you’re doing, trying to keep him all to yourself?"

Another girl grabs my left arm, and pulls.

What is it? What is it?

"On his first day here, you called him 'normal' didn't you. I understood it. That he was an amazing person."

If my memory is right, I think she evaluated me as 'above average'.

But I'd like them to stop fighting with me in the middle.

"ちょ、くぉっぽｒんｋはやぇて(Translation: Wai, please stop fighting.)"

Why am I upset?

"Yeah yeah, I'm going to stop you there."

Tiraiza but in, and took me.

"Tiraiza, he's with you usually, so let him be with us for now at least!"

The girls from cla.s.s attack Tiraiza.

"I'd leave him here if he could deal with this by himself, but look, he's like this."

Tiraiza calmly turned aside the girls' protests.

"Why is that you were fine with that large crowd, but just from a little skins.h.i.+p from girls and you're already upset?"

Tiraiza was astounded.

"You saved me."

I thank Tiraiza.

"Also, I'm coming to school to train myself."

"Houhou, training with skins.h.i.+p from girls, must be for your nice social status."

At my words, Tiraiza lets out sarcasm.

"Even though I have to train really hard from now on."

Iris is also dissatisfied, and is inflating her cheeks.

"So, are you going to come with us?"

Yufilia might be thinking that I'm going to fight with them.

However, it'd be weird for me to defeat the golem at the Dark Temple.

That treasure is something that Yufilia and the others have to win by themselves.

"I have to take care of the cleanup this time, so I won't be able to do anything for a while."

Thus, I decided to be busy with bank related matters.

"Okay, that can't be helped. We were saved plenty of times by you already, so we'll do something about this."

Yufilia retreated easily.

I *chirari* look at Yufilia's head.

She was wearing the necklace that serves as proof of the contract.

However, her att.i.tude was the same as normal.

"I won't say it'll be a replacement for me, but I have a present I'll give you later."

I said that, and took my seat.

It's time for homeroom.

When cla.s.s ended, we gathered in the magic laboratory as usual.

I brought the rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and other accessories with me.

"Oh, magic items."

Jamie carelessly equipped one.

"Gegetu. What's with this performance?"

Jamie was surprised, and her opened mouth isn't closing.

That's an item that raises all her abilities by 15%.

Iris also equipped one, and her mouth is going *pakupaku*.

It seems her voice isn't coming out.

Yufilia and Tiraiza are cautious, and don't try to equip any.

"Hey, do you two feel anything wrong?"

Yufilia asked Jamie and Iris.

"No, not at all."

"There's nothing particularly unusual."

Hearing their answers, Yufilia and Tiraiza finally put on the accessories.

"Was there a problem or something?"

"We have a little trauma with accessories."

"We've had a bad experience with a magic item in the laboratory……"

The two of them began to look over here with half open eyes.

I don't think they should know that I was the one who made that though.

So that nothing like that will happen this time, they've properly been tested.

"Putting that aside, these are amazing items aren't they?"

Contrary to her words, Tiraiza doesn't seem to be as excited as the other 3.

I indirectly ask her why.

"Well, there's not really much of a need to raise all our abilities."

Depending on the cla.s.s, there are only two or three really important statuses.

There isn't really any point to raising statuses other than those.

Even if a warrior raised their MP or INT, there wouldn’t be any meaning.

On the contrary, it’d be pointless for magicians to raise their STR or DEX.

And there are two items that raise them.

Accessories can be equipped on someone’s fingers, arms, ears and neck.

In other words, items that raise all statuses aren’t necessarily needed.

"Above all, effects don’t overlap. For example, with a rig and a bracelet that raise INT, only the one with the better effect is effective."

For those reasons she wasn’t very grateful.

"There are very few cla.s.ses that make full use of all their abilities. A hero would definitely be one though."

"That’s true. For me, these are items I’m really grateful for."

The hero, Yufilia looked happy.

"That’s why, if you brought earrings that raised INT or CHR from the beginning, I’d be about half as happy. No, even below……eh!?"

Suddenly, a wild voice came from Tiraiza, who was indifferently explaining that.

"No way……the effects are overlapping?"

"You’re kidding, right?"

Surprised, Yufilia also tried on an earring.

"What? The effects aren’t overlapping."

Yufilia tilted her head.

I tried some things out, and learned the following:

There’s no overlap if 2 accessories for the same status, for example STR, are put on.

That’s what I already knew.

There is also no overlap effect when wearing two accessories that raise all abilities.

However, if you wear an accessory that raises all abilities and one that raises STR, the STR raising effects overlap.

"In other words, the all abilities up is recognized as a separate effect?"

I understand, and nod.

"Why didn’t the owner know that beforehand?"

Iris retorts.

"Because I never conducted that kind of test on them."

In the first place, evil G.o.ds have no culture of using accessories to raise their abilities.

"Well then, each of us can take an item that we like."

Tiraiza said that, and took a ring.

Of course, there will be problems if what they want overlap with each other though.

"I’ll have anything other than a necklace I guess……"

Yufilia mutters quietly.

"Now that I think about it, you’re wearing an expensive seeming choker."

Tiraiza noticed the choker, and pointed it out.

"Eh, ah, yeah. Some stuff happened, I have to wear this for a while."

Yufilia is in a hurry.

That matter still hasn’t been announced yet.

I think it’ll be exposed eventually, but she must be trying to keep it a secret for now.
Yufilia and the others said thank you, and left for training.
