Humble and Reliable
Vol. 1 Chapter 2 – Part 2
Shin, who found what he looked for, unintentionally posed a victory pose. Tiera, who was watching Shin’s eccentricity, stayed on guard.
“Be delighted, Tiera! I just found out what causes your bad luck.”
“Eh?”
“Believe me. I’m sure because the display status appeared. The color of hair changes, the multiple attacks by monsters, they are all caused by 【Cursed Gift】.”
“【Cursed Gift】?”
Tiera was dumbfounded because she didn’t understand its meaning.
【Cursed Gift】 was a curse that suddenly occurred in THE NEW GATE. It was literally bad luck.
Originally, players could obtain 【Title】 or 【Gift】 from regularly clearing the quests. On occasion, support abilities and items could be gained from it. Depending on the 【Title】, stats could be slightly strengthened as more new skills became available.
Then suddenly the 【Cursed Gift】 had fallen to all players. The curse had negative effect such as random status degradation, gained all kind of abnormalities, random encounters with strong, unique monsters and so on. It could only be cured with the magic skill 【Purification】or by using the item 【Holy Water】.
Although the negative effect was random, the players with 【Cursed Gift】had some part of their body turn black. Their status screens also showed an image of a laughing reaper.
Subsequently, Shin had confirmed that there was a laughing reaper shown at Tiera’s status screen.
“Alright, to make this quick, Tiera, I want you to step out from behind the counter and stand at the center of the store.”
“Eh…okay…”
As Shin said that, Tiera stood at the center of the store without much resistance as she was confused at the situation.
“Here I go. Activate 【Purification】!!”
In order to eliminate the curse, Shin extended his right hand toward Tiera and activated his magic skill 【Purification】. Shin acquired the skill that mainly used by a priest due to a certain circumstance.
Golden light began to gather on Shin’s right hand. At the same time, Tiera’s whole body was wrapped in golden light.
“It’s…it’s warm…”
Although Tiera was surprised when she got wrapped in the light, she didn’t feel any danger from the light emitted. Tiera felt comfort and warmth instead, while the purification process took place.
After about 5 minutes, the light gradually dimmed and disappeared.
Even after the light disappeared, the absentminded Tiera took a while to come back to her senses.
“…Was it successful?…”
Muttered Shin as he felt baffled. The laughing reaper’s icon slowly faded on Tiera’s status screen as Shin looked at it. However, the hair that should have returned to its original color, was still mostly black. A silver highlight was seen among the black hair.
The atmosphere between those two became silent for a while, because it was hard to determine whether the curse had disappeared.
“So, how is it?” Tiera asked.
“The curse is gone…it’s…it’s…but…the hair wasn’t completely restored…”
He had a hard time saying it.
“Hair?”
“Ah…I’m sorry, only part of your hair returned to its original color. But just in case, please confirm it.”
Shin said while feeling discouraged. A mirror was taken out from Item Box and passed to Tiera. Tiera snatched the mirror from Shin after she heard the word hair, and held it in front of her.
Tiera’s face was reflected in the mirror. There was a face that never changed. But one portion of her hair changed into a shining silver-color.
It was obviously the color Tiera once had.
“…Sob…sob…”
Tears started to flow down from Tiera’s eyes.
After that, tears started to burst out like a broken dam.
“Uu…sob…uu…”
While wiping her tears with her sleeve, Tiera cried quietly.
And in front of Tiera, there was a man who was totally confused.
Needless to say, it’s Shin, after all.
The girl who cried in front of him was not a little child, but an adult woman, yet due to Shin’s limited reasoning ability, he just remained still in that situation.
“Sob…just a moment…hick…need to…catch my breath…”
“Ah, I understand. Just take it slow.”
Shin passed a towel as he returned to his senses and dragged the chair from by the counter to let Tiera sit while she wept.
◆◆◆◆
About 5 minutes later, Tiera raised her face from the towel. No tears remained, but her eyes were still red.
“I’m sorry, I’m alright now.”
“Is that so?”
“Why are you using honorifics?”
“No, well. Even though I removed the curse, your hair is mostly unchanged so I felt apologetic for that…”
While Tiera was crying, Shin was afraid that she might get angry again because of the hair.
However, judging from Tiera’s expression, she hadn’t shown any signs of being angry. At this time, Shin became timid. And just a while ago, the position was the exact opposite.
“I’m good about the hair…Please don’t use honorifics towards me. After more than 100 years of having black-colored hair, even if it’s only a little that has returned, I’m glad.”
Tiera smiled and looked very happy as she said that. And all the frightening feelings that Shin had, dissipated after seeing Tiera’s smile.
“Really? I am glad too.”
But, Shin thought. His mother and his younger sister always said that the hair was very important to women. That’s why Shin felt unsatisfactory for her.
“Yes, I’m really good, so don’t worry about it. But is the curse gone for real?”
“Ah, it should be, no doubt about it. I think it will be clear if you go out from the store.”
Since Tiera said it’s good, Shin convinced himself not to fuss about it.
Tiera’s curse, which was random encounters with unique monsters, couldn’t be proven to have disappeared unless she went outside the barrier. Because high level unique monsters couldn’t creep inside the barrier.
THE NEW GATE pursued reality in the game, so unbreakable objects were almost nonexistent. And the player’s stores, like Shin’s, were often aimed at by thieves player.
Therefore, many skills barrier system existed to prevent intrusion to the store. Which were applicable to monsters, too.
“Honestly, it is a little scary. What if the curse wasn’t dispelled?”
“It’s okay. Since I was cured from the curse too.”
“Eh? Eh!! You got cursed too!?”
“Ah, yes, my curse type was random encounters with high level unique monsters too, but I cured it with 【Purification】skill.
When Shin was cursed, the unique monsters thoroughly tried to attack Shin repeatedly, until Shin was tired of it. And there was a time when Shin used them to raise his level.
“Is that so. Then, what was the highest level of monster that has attacked you?”
“Horn Dragon was probably the strongest. I think it was around level 200.”
“Is that the higher rank species of Lesser Dragon?”
“You know?”
“Ah, only a little.”
Horn Dragon was a higher rank species of Lesser Dragon, their size was twice as large and they had horns on their heads. Lesser Dragons were only around Lv. 100, but Horn Dragons were around Lv. 200. Tiera’s level was 57 from what Shin saw in the status screen, so there’s no chance of winning against the dragon.
In THE NEW GATE, the maximum level of a player was 255, and the maximum level of monsters was 1000. It was about four times more than the players. This was solved by reincarnation like Shin or other high level players. Especially Shin, or Rokuten similarly, could easily beat boss monsters and never get tired from it. But even Shin couldn’t let his guard down, as a boss monster was usually Lv. 1000. So Shin didn’t even feel any danger from Lv. 200 unique monsters.
“However, it is said that several elite forces of knights are needed to take on a Horn Dragon.”
“Elite forces? Why do they need the elite group for something like that?”
“Shh..They are the real elite, you know. Did you see a huge rampart next to the store before you came here?”
“Ah, I think I saw it.”
“That’s the reinforced rampart that surrounds the Kingdom of Bayreuth. Well, the captain of the elite force of the knights group in this country is only level 158. And the Horn Dragons are about level 200, so the captain needs 40 more levels to fight it head on. And only those with a screw loose in their head will take on that monster alone, so no one can brag about it.”
“158…that’s…?”
“Yes, it is absurd to even challenges the Kingdom’s no. 2 strongest alone.”
It seems that Tiera thought Shin was surprised by the captain’s high level. But actually, the level was too low. Shin thought it was absurd to have that level. And the level had barely reached the intermediate class in the player’s standards. Particularly, player’s standards like Shin’s.
If a monster that had a higher level than Horn Dragon appeared, it might annihilate two or three countries. Shin thought.
“Well then, let’s leave the store so that we can see whether the curse is gone.”
“Wait, didn’t you hear my story?”
“I heard it. It’s better to find out now if there are any more problems.”
“Not gonna happen. What if a Horn Dragon attacked us?”
“Oh.”
“…….Hey, just to make sure, what is your level?”
“I’m level 255?”
“…………”
Both of them went silent. Shin said it honestly, but it seems that Tiera doubted him.
“Tiera?”
“255…? Same as master?”
“Ah yes, my level is 255, same as Schnee.”
“Really?”
“Yes.”
“Is it really true?”
“It is true.”
“Really hone――”
“Yes! yes! I’ve said it many times!”
“――st…”
The conversation stopped before it became a truth battle.
“Are you able to use 【Analyze】? If you can, then you can see my stats too.”
“I can’t. Only the skill successor can use it.”
“What’s a skill successor?”
“…I begin to doubt your common sense.”
If he was a resident of this world, he would know that too. But Shin, who arrived in this world just a while ago, didn’t know anything about common sense. Rather, he just ass
