CH 31

Now then, negotiations with the [Alive Grimoire] has begun.

……intellectual argument

“Then, I’ll receive 7 things in total”

[Yes]

“Just that in the case I wish for something that is [Used in or for intellectual activities] but is not something you can hand over to me, that is no count and increases the number of things I can receive by one.”

[Yes]

“I will not wish for [The right to increase things I receive] or anything based on that.”

[Yes]

“I will not wish for the same thing”

[Yes]

“You can only pass those things to me, but I am free to pass them to others.”

[If you can pass them on, then that is also possible]

“Is the above fine?”

[Just go with that……]

Okay, and I managed to get quite advantageous conditions like this.

It looks fair at first glance, but it’s probably quite cruel.

After all, I already know 1 thing that will definitely be a [No count].

….dirty

Okay. Then let’s start wishing.

But following the rules presented earlier, no matter how you think about it, it’s better for me to wish for [Something it does not know or is unable to hand over, but will not be a loss if it is really handed over]. Meaning, I will be toeing the line by aiming for no count, but not losing out even if I miss.

……okay, then first, there is something I must ask regardless of all that.

the real questions

…..?

Ah, this book suddenly spoke (Or rather, wrote) in a stiff tone. Thanks to that, it’s hard to understand, in various ways.

But, fragments of our world, what’s that?

……but it would be too much of a waste to use a question here. I’ll ask if I have the leisure to.

think on it

Then, next.

“Explain in detail the conditions to obtain this world’s [Skills].”

[Skills are a mirror that reflects the being itself. Skills that match the being exists within the being itself from the start. As the being changes, the skills that can be gained changes as well. In particular, for humans, who are beings that can change]

what

……errrrr? Meaning? Those that are obtained through necessity or aptitude are just us finding skills that were originally there, then the skills that are obtained through repetitions would be those we obtain by changing?

Ah, then, there probably are……people that cannot obtain a skill through repetition and people that can obtain the same skill without much repetition.

Mhm, got it.

…you can understand that?

Okay, next. Third.

“Then, explain in detail about professions.”

[Professions are the same as skills, a mirror that reflects the being. But professions are a mirror that reflect the future path of the being. The being is not allowed to diverge from this path. When the being encounters a crossroads and chooses from one among them, the future path of the being will change. Do not worry, being able to see only one path is proof of the strength of your feelings towards your own path]

pffft

money always important

Then, next. Err, there is 3 left?

I can increase it with no counts, but it’s not good to be too greedy.

……then, it should be about time. Have I gathered enough information to fulfill my duty as a maid?

“I want you to strengthen me. At least enough so that I am not a burden on everyone.”

This is what I want the most.

[Unable to understand. No count]

……eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh!? Why!?
