Blessing from the Goddess and Transfer to Another World! ~No Thanks, I Don’t Need a Special Ability~ Chapter 25

She just explains the outline of it.

– Our main objective is sightseeing.

– We gather useful subordinates at the same time.

– We have a lot of ability that need to be concealed.

– I can take another person’s power.

– We have a lot of ability, but we’re not going to tell them yet.

For now, let’s confirm the status of the slaves. They don’t have many skills.

Let’s start with the boys.

Name: Cloud

Age: 12     Race: Human

Note: Really calm. Slim boy.     Hair: Blue

Name: Adel

Age: 11     Race: Human

Note: A boy who has been looking frightening the whole time.     Hair: Green

Name: Knot

Age: 10     Race: Dwarf

Note: A really small boy.     Hair: Brown
 

Next is the girls’ side.

Name: Coco

Age: 12     Race: Beast Man (Dog)

Note: Golden-retriever-type beast girl. She has a lot of hair, and it’s really long. She’s the one who wants freedom.     Hair: Gold

Name: Sicily

Age: 11     Race: Human

Note: A girl who woke up together with Coco. Has shoulder-length hair. Always sticks to the back of Koko.     Hair: Brown

Name: Roro

Age: 11     Race: Human

Note: The first girl who removed her clothes when I asked them to show their slave crests. Has a braid on the both sides of her head. It is easy to confuse her name with Coco.     Hair: Red

Name: Iris

Age: 10     Race: Human

Note: A sleepy-headed girl. Her hair reaches the ground like Midori. I mean, their character are almost the same.     Hair: Green

Huh? Why are the girls’ notes longer? Isn’t it natural? It is really sad to explain men’s characteristics in long sentences.

Oh, that’s right. There is one interesting girl, but her skills aren’t that interesting.

Name: Yuria

Age: 392   

Race: High Elf

Skills:

t.i.tle: s.h.i.+ne Maiden/Princess of Elf, Royal family (Elf), Amnesia.

Note: She has the appearance of a ten-year-old girl. Her hair length is a little longer than her shoulders. Although she looks dirty now, she is clearly a really beautiful girl.     Hair: Sliver
 

Sorry. I lied. She has a strong character. All of her race, age, skills and t.i.tles aren’t simple.

>

Everyone seems to worry about it, too.

A 392-year-old High-Elf. A High Elf is the highest kind of elf, and you could say it is the elf’s ancestor. However, their birthrate is really low. It seems that a child between pure-blooded elves has a chance to become a High-Elf in every 100 to 1,000 years. So she is super rare.

I heard their life span is longer than elf, too. They can live for several thousand years. Her age of 392 years might be considered young, according to their standards. It seems a High Elf won’t die of old age due to , their unique race skill. So… What is the cause of death in several thousand years?
 

A: For half, the cause is suicide, and the other half are killed.
 

Yeah, the first cause of death for ageless people (from our investigation) is suicide. Well, it is lucky that it isn’t an   skill.

Art> and . I heard that an elf has a slower learning rate than humans. Of course, if an elf has the same learning rate as human, they would be the strongest race due to their long life span. However, she is already at this level. I’m sure she has considerable talent. And that means that the skill I took from that curling hair woman is totally useless.

As for her t.i.tle. She is V.I.P. in every aspect. Hey, aren’t shrine maiden princess and the royal family’s position really high? Wait! Am I collecting princesses? Well, I don’t need a princess from Erudia. So change.
 

[Amnesia?]

[Wh-What!? We haven’t given you an explanation yet!]
 

My mouth slipped. Coco raises her voice in surprise. Yeah, when I look at status, I see a lot of personal data.
 

[It is one of my powers. Of course, I have to conceal this.]

I left the explanation to Mio a little while ago, but this is the first time I’ve made her manage a lot of people at once. Consequently, I don’t know whether they really get it. It would be bad if they oppose me, so I should let them know who is in charge. I use and
 

[If our secrets were to be exposed, I will make you regret that you were born.]
 

[Hey!]
 

-Jororororo- (Spec: Bathroom malfunction.)
 

Eight puddles were made.

These two skills are really effective at threatening someone. Just staring into their eyes makes their knees shake, and then they collapse on the floor. Even someone as calm as Cloud is in the same state.

So I will give an explanation of this synergistic skill:

+
 

I stop using once all of the slaves are sitting down.

By the way… Because of , I can choose who will receive status, and this means that I can target individuals. Only eight new slaves have status. Because it will be really pitiful to let Dora be affected by it. Oops! Mio has status.
 

[Pii]
 

Mio makes a strange noise.
 

>
 

Dora asks her, but she gets no response.
 

>
 

Even her telepathic voice sounds like she is about to cry. What’s wrong?
 

>

>

Mio becomes silent, and she is shaking restlessly, for some reason. I try to approach her to confirm what’s happening, but it is too much for her. So I stay nearby. 
 

I look at those slaves and continue my speech.
 

[Well then, new slaves, can you keep our secret?]
 

All of them nod desperately. Of course, I could still see some fear in their eyes.

Oh, well… I don’t think anybody is going to oppose me after I threaten them like this. I need to make our hierarchical relations.h.i.+p clear first.
 

[And Coco, please explain more about this amnesia girl.]
 

I urge her to explain Yuria, the high elf’s situation.

[Y-Yes. This girl has amnesia. I don’t know what happened before she became a temporary slave. I was picked up recently, so I don’t really know her situation, at all.]
 

Coco is trembling a little while explaining. Her ears turn down.
 

[Do you have amnesia? Can you give me details?]

I stand in front of Yuria, squat down and stare into her eyes before asking the question. Since I have , it is hard to lie at point-blank range.

[Y-Yes. Except for when I woke up a little while ago, I don’t have any memories before that. I was confused, and I became a temporary slave before I noticed.]

It seems she isn’t lying. I don’t feel any intelligence of someone who has lived almost four hundred years, at all. Her eyes are exactly like those of a child. I don’t think her status is wrong, but… I just want to make sure.

[Where were you picked up?]

[I don’t know. I have been confused for a long time, and my memory during that time is really vague.]

Should I ask Help-sensei? No, it is already okay. That was the past, and now she is my slave.
 

[Well, you can tell me if you remember something. For now, though, you are my slave. Okay?]

[Y-Yes, I have no problem. And I won’t expose the secret. Absolutely, Absolutely won’t…]
 

It seems I threatened her too much. She trembles so hard when I stare at her at point-blank range.

What will happen if I use with an opponent with weak will? Won’t they become disabled? That alone makes this synergistic skill very strong.

[Okay, I get it. You won’t expose our secret. Let’s change clothes for now. Err… Let’s use “Clean” first.] 

’s “Clean” is the magic that removes all dirt from the target. It doesn’t make their rag clothes clean, but it is enough to clean their body.

I divide the job of cleaning all new slaves with “Clean” between everyone. Mio just secretly turns a blind eye to how my “Clean” magic works.

After that, I let them change into some clothes which were prepared by Mio and Maria. It is might a little too late, but I make part.i.tions with earth magic for men and women.

The changing is done normally. They were cheap clothes, but they’re still better than nothing.

Does “Clean” magic turn Yuria into a beautiful girl? Well… I don’t want to judge a girl of her age like that. Other people have surprising “before and after” appearances, too. I think it will be more troublesome if Yuria doesn’t cover her face. Including her past, too.
 

[Then, let’s talk again. Fighting monsters will be your main job.]

[A-Are you going to use us as decoys?]
 

Cloud is trembling while saying that. Other slaves are frightened, too.

Oh, I guess they misunderstand. Come to think of it, Konoe Town doesn’t have a slave market because there are a lot of cases in which adventurers use slaves as decoys. So it’s a scandal for them to set up a shop in an adventurer’s town.
 

[Huh? Didn’t Mio tell you before? I can take power from others, and then I’ll give you power with which to fight.]

[C-Can you do something like that?]
 

Coco hears what I say. It isn’t something that’s easy to believe. Well, it can’t be helped. I must show I actually can.
 

[Yeah, I can. I will let you fight once we leave this place. If you guys don’t want to fight, I will a.s.sign you to another job.]
 

I have a lot of ways to make slaves work. As their number increases, so do the possibilities, too.

Since no one said they are no good at fighting, we decide to leave the thieves’ hideout. I don’t show , but I will tell them about it later.
 

We go outside and gather in front of the carriage. Those slaves are surprised to see that adventurers like us have a carriage.
 

[Well then, I will give you a power. I will have you enter carriage one by one. Please keep what you see inside a secret. Understood?]
 

[[[[[[[[Yes!]]]]]]]]

Everyone answers so desperately. Are they that scared?

By the way, there is no deep meaning for the carriage. I just want to change the scenery.

They enter carriage one by one, and I put my hand on their forehead and give them the ability. Doesn’t it look real? Although, it is possible to do this remotely with …

I finish giving all members their abilities without any trouble. Status details? I leave them out because it is troublesome. I won’t let them fight with us, anyway.

I will let those slaves become a sub-party. I give them powers to fight against monsters and to be able to use from . The status of defeated enemies will flow to me, after all. Of course, I won’t let them work themselves to death and get killed. I will also give some of the status to the one who defeated that enemy.

Since they are my slaves, fighting with monsters is unavoidable. However, it is useless to have strong people in one party. My special power is really convenient for establis.h.i.+ng sub-parties.

By the way… Slaves who don’t want to fight will have production skills, and I’ll let them work in that area. We can open up a shop and make money from that.

Isn’t it bad to take a commission from them? Well, it is a proper way to make slaves work.

[I have a feeling I’m filled with power somehow.]

[My body is so light! Completely different from earlier.]

[Is that an animal over there? I can sense it so clearly!]

[Yeah, as expected!]

The slaves’ reactions are great. Of course, this is just a small bit of my ability, but for those slaves, it was like their combat efficiency increased ten times.

I have to put out the carrot, so there is no need for the stick right now.

By the way, I took Yuria’s skill and her status, too, because they are a lot higher than that of an average slave. I just set her skill to level 1, so it doesn’t become unnatural. I will gradually give the rest back to her.
 

Now, the new slaves are in the mood… and ready… I’m going to start educating them.
