Q : What is skill level?
A : A skill proficiency. You will receive skill experience when using the related skill. Skill level will level up when skill experience value is above certain value. The highest level is 10, the upper limit isn’t different between individuals. However, the rate of skill experience value acquisition is difference for each individual.
Q : How do you obtain a skill?
A : It is mostly obtained by inherent. The most inheritance skills are race skills and natural talent. You can rarely obtain skills by practice, ritual or contact.
In other word, if anyone could get the first level, they could reach the highest level if they put in enough time and effort.
Beside, I can take the first level of skills from others with my special skill. And my special skill can ignore an effort to get the first level, it isn’t a normal advantage for this world.
After continue walking for 10 minute, the village is coming into our view.
Since we took about 2 hours to reach here, it is evening and the sun is about to set.
Even the distance is 1 hour on foot, it can’t be help since we have to fight and collect monster stones on the way. Since I fought, I want to take their ability and secure the monster stone. It will be hard if we don’t have ability to travel and we can’t do anything after entering the village if we don’t have money.
According to the map, this is Kabate village. Since there wasn’t any gatekeepers at the entrance of the village, we decided to enter without permission.
This isn’t a big village but the facilities seems to be in order since it is near the capital. There is a hotel and general store here too. But weapons and protective gears are in the general store, they doesn’t seem to have specialized shops here.
[We finally arrived. Is there a place we can stay in this village?]
[I looked at the map a little while ago. I saw INN is written on the map.]
Since Kinoshita-san is asking about the resting place, I tell her about the information I have.
[That’s is great. But your map is really game-like.]
[Yeah. But didn’t I say it before? It looks like a game.]
[Come to think of it, you were right.]
Two of us head to a hotel while smiling awkwardly. By the way, map doesn’t show the world’s area, only show the current area and adjacent area. This special power isn’t good in that area, it shows only a plot of land. City and village just show up with 1 area.
The inn has come into our view after walking for a little while. It wasn’t big and didn’t have many rooms but it seemed to have 1 empty room. Does the map know about this?
The uncle who sat at the reception desk calls us out when we open the hotel’s door.
[Welcome. Do you want to stay at the hotel?]
[Yes. Do you have any vacant room we could stay?]
I already know it from the map but I have to ask him properly. Because common people doesn’t know the existence of the map, I think I have to proceed as normal as possible.
[Oh. I actually have 1 vacant room. …err, did you two travel together? Is it okay to be in the same room?]
[Kinoshita-san, is it okay to be in the same room? Kinoshita-san could stay in hotel room alone if you don’t want to. I can sleep in the open somewhere…]
I want to sleep in a bed too but I have to confirm with Kinoshita-san. I should give priority to the girl (limit to beautiful girls only) if she don’t want to be in the same room. Well, I could manage to sleep in the open somehow.
[It is fine to be in the same room. It’s Shindo-kun’s money. I’m really thankful just from taking me together.]
Too bad we couldn’t take 2 separate rooms (Stick). It is unavoidable to sleep together because there is only one room left (Stick).
I head toward that uncle and give my conclusion.
[Understood. Then please. For money, could I pay with monster stones?]
I already confirm the market price of monster stones with help-sensei. The gold’s unit is almost the same as Japan.
