I chose to read the books I just bought at the fountain in the square until Neete came out of the store .
I first took a look at the list of occupations that could be acquired through examinations .
As expected, there were many that were production jobs .
Apprentice production jobs such as Apprentice Cook and Apprentice Tailor could be acquired through training and examinations .
In the last chapter of the book, there was a list of instructions who live in the Shiraraki Kingdom and its neighboring countries according to their race .
However, the publishing date was Otherworld year 350 . It was now Otherworld year 391 so the book was over 40 years old .
I didn’t know the average life expectancy of the inhabitants of this world but probably can’t rely on the names of the instructors .
“Hn? On closer inspection, I see Dwarf and Dark-Elf names as well . ”
Among the Dwarves, I only knew Doxco and I didn’t know if he was an instructor or not but his life expectancy is significantly longer than human life expectancy . There’s a high chance that those instructors were still alive .
And Dark-Elf — there was only one .
But I recall hearing that name before .
Rurina .
The girl who has the skill called Manager . She appeared to be younger than me but was actually quite a bit older than me .
Incidentally, according to the book the jobs that can be acquired through tests administered by her were Apprentice Cook, Jeweler and Mushroom Appraiser .
I was a little interested in Apprentice Cook and Jeweler but what was with Mushroom Appraiser?
The Plant Appraisal skill by the Harvester can already appraise mushrooms so I couldn’t tell if it was truly necessary .
Next, I looked into the book on Inheritance Bosses .
The book did not focus only on the Shiraraki Kingdom and its neighboring countries but had information on the Inheritance Bosses in various dungeons .
It didn’t have information on Roo‧Kanga in the secret dungeon of the Cat‧Sith so it didn’t cover all Inheritance bosses either .
Well, there were probably unexplored dungeons as well .
“There was an Inheritance Boss in Florence as well?”
I muttered to myself .
On the 76th floor of the Advanced dungeon, there was a cheetah named Cheater Cheetah . One would be able to acquire the Runner job if they could beat it in a race around the floor .
However, that Cheater Cheetah would cheat by passing through walls using holes that were too small for humans to pass through so it was extremely difficult to win against it .
I see so that’s why it was called the Cheater Cheetah . Was it a coincidence that it became a bad pun?
Or was it the Goddess-sama’s playful naming .
“Dear, I’m done shopping . ”
“Ou, good job — that’s an amazing amount . ”
She looked like Hotei . (TL: God of contentment, depicted as a pot-bellied monk who carries a large cloth bag on his back)
There were so many bags that even Neete’s face was hidden .
“It’s really heavy . Please store them in your item bag . ”
“All right . ”
I opened my item bag and kept the items within .
Next, what should we buy … I thought to myself but it seemed that our time for shopping had ended .
“Master, there was a message from Torerul-sama — or to be correct, it is a message from Koshmar-sama — or rather she made a request through Torerul-sama . ”
” … Erm, message? Is it truly from them?”
“Yes because we are homunculus made by Torerul-sama . We are able to listen to something simple such as a message even while trying on underwear . ”
I didn’t have to know it was while you were trying on underwear .
But a request from Koshmar-sama …
When I came to this world, Koshmar-sama told me to live freely .
If Koshmar-sama is telling me to do something in the form of a request, I would like to take action .
Of course, I would refuse if they were to be criminal requests such as stealing an object or killing somebody .
Although I did misstep and killed a Thief, I don’t intend to become a criminal .
However, if they were to be requests such as to defeat a dragon or tame a griffon which I would normally struggle to do, I intend to accept them .
Koshmar-sama has taken care of me quite a bit . I will happily accept any request if it means I will be able to repay her slightly .
“Erm, she hopes that Dear will return to Jobless . ”
“No!”
I answered so immediately that I surprised myself .
