Chapter 1: 1

Episode 001 Destiny Aptitude Test

 

 High school debut.

 

 It is an act of breaking away from oneself up to Junior High school and polishing a different appearance and behavior from before, thus establishing a completely different standing posiont from oneself who was originally inconspicuous.

 

 I am also an ordinary boy who wants to get out of the standing position up to Junior High school of just being air, and establish a special position in the class, grade, and even school where you can enjoy your youth with cute girls.

 

 For that reason, I took the entrance exam for a high school away from my parents' house with the intention of living in a dormitory instead of a local high school, and I was able to pass it brilliantly. I trained my chubby body into a soft macho with muscle training and swimming, bought a magazine to study fashion, and tried to pay attention to my appearance and cleanliness with my clothes and hairstyle.

 

 As for my face, I got it from my parents, so it can't be helped, but I think it's at least average.

 

 However, I think it's good enough to be able to stand out a little in the class. Therefore, there is something I want to do in order to get into a position that is also regarded highly at school.

 

 It is the explorer registration.

 

 At one point, labyrinths called 'dungeons' suddenly appeared all over the world, and it became recognized as a new disaster including the monsters that appeared from the dungeons. However, the recognition changed when humans awakened to power by entering the dungeons and some people could fight back against the monsters.

 

 As they explored the dungeons and researched the items they brought back, various resources, food, weapons and armor, and treasures were sleeping in the dungeons, and their value became immeasurable.

 

 Then, those who woke up to power and had the power to dive in the dungeons came to be called explorers. About 20% of the population has the aptitude as an explorer. Just being selected for it will make you stand out.

 

 I've found coins that were forgotten to be picked up in the vending machine's change slot, and I've applied for a sweepstakes and won. I'm confident that I'm lucky, so I'm sure I'll be able to get the explorer aptitude this time as well.

 

 I was convinced so I came to the office of the Explorers' Union.

 

"So this is the Explorers' Union ..."

 

 Since the Explorers' Union is a state-owned organization, it looks like a public institution. It was a three-story building, and it wasn't long since the union was formed, so the building was relatively new and clean.

 

 I'm wearing a hat and a mask so that my acquaintances won't find me. Not many people know what I'm doing for my High school debut, but just in case.

 

 I went down and entered through the Union's automatic door.

 

"Welcome~, what kind of business do you have today?"

 

 Once inside, there was a space that was more like a hospital than a city hall. A woman in her forties called out to me as I was wandering around.

 

"Well, I want to know if I have the aptitude of an explorer ..."

 

"I see, it's the aptitude test. Please get issued a numbered ticket from the third window and wait."

 

"I understand."

 

 I follow the instructions of the woman and head to the third window, get issued a numbered ticket via the machine near the window, and sit down in a nearby chair.

 

 Even though it's called a window, it was a private room to prevent leakage of personal information. It seems that the inside is soundproof and you can't even hear the voice. Some people find it annoying to have it known that they have the aptitude to be an explorer, so they try not to let it leak out of the Union.

 

 I don't know about the Union beyond what they advertise, so it seems like they're telling you to do whatever you want.

 

 However, if you have the aptitude, they will proceed to register you as an explorer as it is, so it is inevitable that people who have an aptitude will take longer than those who do not have the aptitude, and it will be noticed by professional people, so it may be correct to say that they will keep that appearance to the last.

 

 Looking around the area with just a glance, there are a variety of girls of the same age as me, people like yankees who are chattering with each other, people who look like college students, working people in suits, men in their thirties, old people in their fifties, etc. It seemed that even rich people were waiting for the aptitude test like I was.

 

"Person with the ticket number 236, this way please."

 

 After waiting for about 20 minutes, the door of the room at the third window opened, and finally my number was called and I headed to the window.

 

"Please have a seat in that chair."

 

 A young woman in her early twenties sits opposite the counter and urges me to sit.

 

 Wow, she's a really cute girl.

 

 I wonder if there are many beautiful receptionists.

 Long black hair and eyes that look a little strong. She is, however, somehow she has a young baby face. She was somewhat out of this world, she seemed so cute that she didn't seem like she should be at the reception desk in such a place, and she would be more like an idol.

 

 She was wearing a suit-like jacket and wore a white blouse underneath, but the two fruits that press up her blouse are prominent, as if she was forced to stuff them into a blouse that didn't fit.

 

"... Wow ... Really ..."

 

"Customer!? Is something the matter?"

 

"N, no, It's okay."

 

 I regained myself with a slightly loud voice, and I couldn't say I was fascinated by her, so I hurriedly pulled myself together and sat down on a chair.

 

"I will be in charge of you today. My name is Kurosaki Rei. My best regards for the future."

 

"Yes, thank you."

 

 She bows politely towards me, and I also bow in a hurry.

 

 It's amazing to be able to deal with a child like me in this manner.

 

 I'm sure she's dealt with many other similar people.

 

"Then, is it okay to confirm your suitability as an explorer today?"

 

"Yes. No problem."

 

"I understand. Could you please fill out this application form first?"

 

"I understand."

 

 I received the proferred form, filled it out, and returned it to Kurosaki-san.

 

"Yes, there is no particular problem. Then I will check the aptitude immediately."

 

"Yes, thank you."

 

 Kurosaki-san, who received the form, checked the contents and nodded that there seemed to be no problem, raised her face and replied.

 

"Would you relax please?"

 

-Gokuri

 

 I swallowed involuntarily.

 

 This is the turning point of fate. Heaven and Hell. It is no exaggeration to say that this will determine my High school life. I hope I have the aptitude.

 

 I prayed in my heart as if to a god.

 

"'Appraisal'"

 

 When Kurosaki-san utters those words, Kurosaki-san's eyes shine blue, and a chill as if peeping into my depths covers my whole body.

 

 What is this!??

 

 Kurosaki-san, who was staring at me for about 10 seconds, closes her eyes once and exhales deeply.

 

 Then she tilted her head a little, smiled and said:

 

"Congratulations, Satou-sama. You have the aptitude."

 

と。(TN:Absolutely no idea what this should mean. 'To' can be many things, including 'and' or 'with', maybe he's just exhaling in relief.)

 

However, I didn't know that hell would await after that.
