Volume 1 - CH 6

“Then I’ll go next, please.”

“I understand. Offer your prayers.”

And so, finally, it was Cyclo’s turn.

Cyclo stood in front of the crystal and prayed to the Skill Giving God.

(Please, may I get a special skill that will be as good as Maria and Alice’s.)

He wished strongly.

Then – an excessively strong light enveloped Cyclo’s body.

The light is stronger than that of Maria and Alice.

“What!? Again!?”

The priest is surprised. But Cyclo does not stop praying.

After being enveloped by the light, he prays even harder.

Then – yet another color of light enveloped Cyclo more strongly.

The light was so bright that it overflowed from inside the church and illuminated the entire surrounding area.

“Wha-, What the hell is this!? This is unprecedented!”

The priest shouts in the most astonished voice of the day.

The light continues to shine for a while, and then slowly subsides.

Then, after the light disappeared – there were letters floating firmly on the crystal.

“Hm? T-Tthis is ……?”

The priest sounds troubled by something.

Cyclo became curious and asked the priest.

“Um, Sir Priest. What was my skill?”

“Uhm …… Wait a minute. This skill is, let’s see ……”

After a pause, the priest opens a book.

After looking through it, he nodded.

“I knew it. This skill, there’s no doubt.”

“Um, so what’s its name?”

After being asked repeatedly by Cyclo, the priest finally answers.

“Yes–this skill is “Clock User”.”

“Yes?”

“As the name implies. It’s an “Job skill”, meaning “One who handles clocks”. It’s also a unique skill, probably confirmed for the first time in history!”

When Cyclo was told this, he was simultaneously pleased and puzzled.

You can say that he is pleased that in addition to being properly given a “Job skill,” it is a rare skill that is as rare as that of a “Saint” or a “Sage”.

However – there was one point that really bothered him.

“…… but, Sir Priest. It’s “Clock User”, isn’t it?”

“Mm-hmm.”

“…… what does that skill do?”

“–I have no idea.”

And the priest throws the whole thing off completely.

Yes, in other words, Cyclo had acquired a mysterious skill that he doesn’t really know what it can do, or …… what use it is.

Cyclo wonders what will happen to him in the future.
