CH 25

Guild Master, would you like to see my status window? I have always considered you as my leader whether it was in the past life or now. So I’m thinking that knowing your member’s status would be a good thing”

“Then please let me see it. You can also see my status window in exchange”

“…… I somehow started to feel nervous all of the sudden…… Guild Master has never shown your status window to other people back in the game after all”

I also never bother seeing other people’s status windows so naturally, I also never saw Mikoto-san’s before. I only enforce my guild members to self-report their skill and equipment so I could roughly grasp their battle power and that was enough for me. There are other guild masters who think it is a must for them to know the details of every guild member’s status but I’m not one of them.

But in case why Mikoto-san wished to show me her status window is because there is a certain intent in it to tell me how she has been living up to this point in this isekai world.

– <Mikoto> is requesting permission to browse your status window. Will you give permission? YES / NO

With my positive response to Mikoto-san’s request, she managed to open my status window. In my case, I still have her under my [Charisma] skill effect so I can freely browse her status if I want so I willed it in my mind to open her status window.

(Ninjutsu 100, Ninja Gear Mastery 100…… Even Body Strength is also 100. As expected of her…… Magic Affinity seems to be grinded just recently in order to use Elemental Ninjutsu. Berserker and Sleepwalking seem to be negative traits debuff……? Weak against cute things status means that she can’t attack rabbit-type monsters and other similar things right? Well, that’s not exactly a big problem though)

I don’t know whether she ever uses her skill points or not but this is indeed a magnificent cultivation result. Leaving behind the bonus point from level up means that she also has the same level up strategy as me.

“Just as expected of Mikoto-san, your status is amazing…… What happened?”

“…… Guild Master…… Just what is this desuno? What is it with this status window? Just what perverted way did you use to grind your level desuno?”

(U-Ugh…… Did she say that suckling is the perverted way to level up…… No, that is the wrong context here)

Mikoto-san’s mouth remained slack-jawed for a long time. That is an apt description for her expression now. Well, I guess that is normal…… She does not know about the bonus point I received before when I reincarnated and how I max out all my skill with it.

“There are many things leading to this. I was fallen into a situation where I must become strong no matter what”

“But even so…… Limit Breaker. I never knew such a skill existed……”

Mikoto-san should be watching at the system window currently as she is blankly looking at an empty space. It seems that she is scrutinizing each item in my status window.

She scrutinized my status window for a long time without moving but that can’t be helped. The number of skills that I possess is, well, even I can’t help but admit that it is just too many —- But as someone with hoarding sickness, I still think that all the skills I have are still not enough.

Mikoto-san who is checking my status window suddenly stops moving on our way to catch up with the carriage.

“…… How did you get all these skills desuno? There are so many of them here. Even if you put one point in each of them and grind them manually, it should be impossible to grind an unknown skill…… Especially this Limit Breaker here. I need the detailed explanation for it desuwane”

“That one… will take some long time to explain though……”

“I don’t mind desuwa. If you give me this favor, I could help you learn Ninjutsu. I could also help you clear the rank-up quest to remove the skill cap. And I will also become your permanent party member if you ever wish so desuwayo”

(So you approach it this way eh…… To think that the other party would be coming at me first for a negotiation……)

The negotiation content does not have any problem in it —- It just that I have to tell her how I ‘get’ the skill to my comrade that has always been with me since back in the game. The hurdle is unexpectedly high.

“…… Did you get it through some way you are unable to say desuno? You should not be able to use hacks or cheats in this isekai world wayone? …… I also don’t think Guild Master is someone who would do something so lowly like using cheats”

“Do Mikoto-san know about the points that you get when you get transmigrated here……?”

“Yeah…… I also received that desuwa. I personally don’t think that I could be counted as a misfortuned one but…… It seems like my illness had a big part in giving me points desuwane”

I see, so all the skill points she received from level up are untouched but she had used up all of her bonus points. She should be using those points to get a starting boost as I did.

But…… Why did we start differently? Riona also starts at 0 age like me so I thought everyone is the same but maybe the age for transmigator could be set up as they wished?

“Mikoto-san, did you ask the Goddess anything relating to age?”

“Yes. I wished so that I could start with carrying over my real age here desuwa. It cost me some bonus point though”

“So you can do something like that too……”

As someone who has experienced death, all I can think of transmigrating is only starting over again as a baby…… But it was actually not only limited to that. So it means that there is no guarantee that all the other transmigrators would be the same age as me. And there are also other theories like how they got transmigrated here in different time frames as I was.

But I have lived for 8 years in this world and I only met 1 other person so far. The Goddess had said that there are other transmigrators like me but it might be because this world lacks transportation and communication means that the chance to actually meet them is very low…… And it is not like all of the players got an invitation from the Goddess to transmigrate here.

“I thought that If I keep on looking for strong people to fight, I might someday meet a comrade. The Goddess also said that…… one of my acquaintances has been transmigrated ahead of me. I never thought that person would be Guild Master though”

“You must also think that the people who transmigrated are only those who had died, right? …… as you get transmigrated here in that style”

Mikoto-san nods in agreement to my statement that I said while smiling bitterly.

“But the way I think of actually hitting the goal…… Who could imagine that you would be traveling together with The Holy Knight herself. But now that I think of it again, I suddenly feel nervous desuwane. This situation reminds me of my first offline meeting”

Now that she said it like that, it indeed has the same feeling. Well, although I never attended any offline meeting before, I suddenly have one here in this isekai world when it is the least expected.

“Well then…… My running speed is considerably fast and I could even run as fast as a horse desuwa. Before we catch up the carriage, why don’t you explain to me how you get that Limit Breaker skill?”

“…… I have a favor I want you to do. If you could, please don’t despise me…… okay? ……”

“Despise…… did you get that skill from doing something evil desuno? But it is indeed a skill that is worth even doing that…… If I could level up my skill over level 100, I am also not confident to resist the temptation to do anything for it desumono…… Well, not everything. I still won’t use my body as the payment though”

The thing that suddenly appears in my mind is that I can just tell her that I am not using Suckling on Yuishia to get the skill, I can just tell her that I get the skill by drinking her dragon milk —- Such kind of deceit suddenly appears on my mind.

But even so, even if I said that, she would still eventually know about how I use Milking to get the dragon milk. The feeling of HENTAI will still not change. This is bad, I suddenly feel extremely ashamed…… BUT! Mikoto-san is my comrade. I have to tell her the truth no matter what! ……

“…… There is this Sovereign Dragon living nearby the town where I born, then I tame it, and then I do suckling on her”

I end up telling her the summary of the story but I still tell her the unhidden truth. Mikoto-san’s large eyes keep blinking for a while before her cheeks start to blush red.

“…… That is not some easy feat to accomplish desuwane. Guild Master is also a boy desuwane…… Doing such a bold thing……”

I feel the nuance of ‘even when people know of such a method, they would normally not do that right?’ from her replies. Thi-this is bad…… With such a reaction, would she still be willing to join my party again? ……

“But then again, persevering in the quest for power until you finally found such a method is also a wonderful thing desuwa. Thank you for telling me that…… Is that so, so suckling right. I also have a pair with me here but I never know that it could be used like that……”

“Ye-yeah…… When I was still a baby, I found out about it by chance. Yes, I am not lying”

Anyway, It is a good time to cut the talk here. We need to catch up with Filianess-san’s group fast.

That’s right. This matter takes more time than what I have expected before —-

– [Charm] has been automatically activated! <Mikoto> failed to resist! She has fallen to charmed status.

—- and that amount of time is enough for my passive skill to flare up again.

(What the, shoot! …… I haven’t added Mikoto-san into my party yet so she has become the target of charm skill……!)

“Mi-Mikoto-san, please move away from me! It will settle down after you wait it out for a while”

“…… I-I see…… I understand desuwa. I now know why you can successfully do a skill like suckling…… It is indeed amazing, this kind of feeling……”

Mikoto-san’s eyes turned dreamy in an instant and the way she looks at me changed too…… No-not good. This pattern is……!

– <Mikoto> is waiting for your command. Would you like to give her a command? YES / NO

(AIEEEE~~!)

I involuntarily let out a scream like never been in my heart. Even after all the things I did to reduce the chance of charm to successfully hit, how is it still successful in the end? ……

“…… So at this moment, if you command me to let you perform suckling on my…… Guild Master would get…… skills like Ninjutsu or the likes, isn’t that right none? …… I see, it is very efficient indeed desuwa. If I had taken Negotiation skills…… I can certainly…… Nn~…… My-my body feels very hot desuwa……”

– <Mikoto> is bewildered by the changes in her body.

“Ta-taking off your clothes is very bad…… We are outside Mikoto-san!”

“!!! …… Tha-that is not good desuwa. This feeling…… Even I cannot hold on to a clear-minded state…… Such a scary power it is, the power of charm……”

(Calm down me…… Ninja should have good resistance to this kind of charm effect. She should recover soon…….!)

Looking at Mikoto-san who is waiting for a command from me, a sudden thought appears in my mind. Ninjutsu…… I want to be able to do shadow clone technique. I also want to be able to train ninja dogs. Turning a normal dog into a ninja dog would turn the dog into a superior combatant. Mikoto-san does not bring a ninja dog with her but that is because dogs could only be found only in a certain limited area and nowhere else. If she had found one, she should have already cast her shinobi skill on the dog.

No! That’s not it! This time is definitely a big no! It is a great blessing to meet a comrade here in this isekai world. Would I bring this to a sour end just because I am being greedy for her skill? ……

– <Mikoto> has recovered from her charmed status.

– <Mikoto> is equipping [Black Ninja Suit].

“Ah…… I-I recovered desuwa. For a moment there I don’t know what would happen……”

“I-I’m sorry……”

“…… Did you use this skill to become a peerless being when you are still a baby desunone? I always thought that Guild Master is someone who is serious and honest, but…… surprisingly, you are very weak against temptation desunone?”

(You can curse me all the way you like…… I am, after all, a man that had sold my soul to milk)

For Mikoto-san who could confirm the things that had happened with her log window, I simply cannot hide anything from her. What makes things worse is that she also has the knowledge of the game system from the previous world in which she could easily deduce the process of me becoming this strong and my conduct, or rather misconduct, so far.

Mikoto-san does not continue cursing at me as I had expected. She only stands there looking at me who are feeling dejected. All she is doing is just playing with her braided hair on her shoulder. I am filled with trepidation waiting for her next word……

“…… No need to worry, I won’t despise you desuwa. You have been taking care of me for so long in the game after all. I can let this bit of prank go and overlook it…… Not that it could be counted as just a bit though”

“Tha-thank you…… Mikoto-san. I always thought that even if I meet someone I knew from my guild, they would definitely hate me for what I did”

“Fufu…… That’s not gonna happen desuwa. If Mayu-san meets the current you, I think that person would definitely comment on what you did as [very manly]. That person is such kind of person after all”

She is indeed correct. I unconsciously recall the time when the three of us had a conversation together back in the game and I suddenly feel very nostalgic. The three of us do not know the real age, occupation, and anything else personal from each of us but we can still talk on and on to just about anything……

“True to my promise, I will join Guild Master’s party desuwa. If you can, please let me fight a strong enemy too. The battles I had nowadays are just not hot enough and I started to feel that my body is getting dull because of it desuno. Or you could just help me have a spar with the holy knight. I would love it that way desuwa”

“Haha…… Filianess-san is indeed very strong. Please do your best in the range of not getting serious injuries then”

“I take that as a promise then! If you said it like that, my fire can’t help but burn desuwa…… I feel like things will become more interesting from now on desuwane, Guild Master”

– <Mikoto> has been added to the party.

– <Mikoto> is whispering [I never thought I would join him once again…… Wish is indeed something to keep in mind desuwane]

I never thought that I would have an unexpected reunion before reaching Ishua’s Temple. But The most important thing now is to escort Luche. Let’s not forget our main duty here.

I ride my horse galloping while Mikoto-san runs alongside by using her Ninja Running Technique. We are going to catch up with the carriage that has gone ahead.
