Chapter 64 – Acquired Attack Skills for The First Time!!
“Thank you for telling me.”
“No problem, it’s my duty to support you, Big brother.”
As thanks, I gently stroked Havamar’s head.
Her cat ears were swaying happily, she seemed to be in a good mood.
“Well then, I’ll go to the bath too.”
“Wait, Big brother.”
She clung to my arm.
“What’s wrong? Was there any information we haven’t talked about yet?”
“Nya, um… It’s just that. I was happy because you stroked my head, so I’m in the best mood ever. I will grant a special skill to big brother as a special favor.”
“A skill? How?”
Wait, is it even possible to grant skills? Normally, I heard that skills are acquired through training or specialized schools depending on the occupation. For example, if you’re a mage, you learn at a magic school. If you’re a knight, you learn at a knight school. In my case, I had no skills to speak of, and that was one of the reasons I was called incompetent.
But now I have the “Uninhabited Island Development Skill” and its derivatives.
Come to think of it, I didn’t have a single attack skill or defense skill. I want to praise myself for managing to survive this long with that.
While I was praising myself, Havamar took my right hand and intertwined our fingers, as if holding hands with a lover.
“Wa!”
“Don’t make a fuss, Big brother. It’s, it’s fine!”
“Even so, this is…”
Facing each other and holding hands like lovers with our right hands.
What kind of ritual is this?
As my heart was pounding, magical power flowed into me. A mysterious green aura enveloped me. What is this… it feels like power is welling up inside me.
Before long, I acquired a new skill.
[Thunder Break] [Lv.1]
[Spear-Exclusive Skill]
[Effect]
Performs a powerful wind attribute attack.
If the user is equipped with ‘Gale Tulle’, physical and magical attacks occur. Physical and magical attack power +50%.
If the user is equipped with ‘Gungnir,’ magical attack power increases by 100%.”
“W-What is this!”
“It’s a wind attribute skill called “Thunder Break”. Originally, it was my technique, but… since I think big brother will be doing most of the fighting, I’ll give it to you.”
“Y-You’re giving it to me… Is that okay?”
“Yeah. I want big brother to use it.”
When I’m looked at with such pure, childlike eyes, I can’t refuse. To think that I would finally get an attack skill. With this, I won’t be treated as incompetent by my father and older brothers anymore. If I ever meet them again, I’ll be able to make them eat their words.
“Thank you, Havamar.”
“It’s alright, it’s alright. Naturally, I trust big brother more than anyone else and I love you.”
It makes me happy to hear her say that.
Alright, after taking a bath and having a meal, I’ll give it a try!
