Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (WN)

The weakest and the jester.

Two weeks have passed since the day Hajime was stuck uselessly with his weakest.

Currently, Hajime is using his training break to do research at the Royal Library. In its hands was a giant drawing as titled "The Great Atlas of Demons of the North Continent" with no twist whatsoever.

Why are you reading such a book? That's because the last two weeks of training have only revealed more useless rather than useless to grow. For lack of strength, they study between training to see if they can be covered by knowledge and wisdom.

That's why Hajime, looking at the drawings for a while... suddenly, he sighed and threw the drawings on his desk. The heavy sound of Dosung echoes, and the scribe who stumbled through stares at Hajime with an awesome shape.

As he freaked out, Hajime hurried to apologize. "There's no next time, Cora!" I get a silent stare and I manage to get it missed. "What are you doing," he said to himself, sighing again.

Hajime takes out his status plate in large measure and looks at it with his cheek cane attached.

Five times the growth rate of Hajime.

Besides, I also found that Hajime has no magical aptitude.

What do you mean there is no magic aptitude? Let me explain a little bit about the concept of magic in this world.

Magic in Tortoise goes through the process of instilling magic in the magic formation by chanting the magic in the body and activating the magic of the ceremony as incorporated into the magic formation. The magic cannot be manipulated directly, and the magic formation must be constructed correctly by what effect magic is used.

And there will be more magic that can be poured in proportion to the length of the chant, and more power and effect in proportion to the amount of magic. There are also many formulas that write to the magic formation in proportion to the complexity and scale of the effect. That inevitably leads to the magic formation itself becoming bigger.

For example, a magic formation of about ten centimeters in diameter is generally required even if a classic "fireball" is simply released straight ahead with RPG or the like. Basically, we need formulas for attributes, power, range, range, and magic absorption (absorbing magic from the body). Later, we add formulas whenever additional elements such as inductiveness, duration, etc. are added, and the magic formation grows larger.

However, there are exceptions to this principle as well. That's aptitude.

Suitability is a question of how much formula can be omitted due to physical fitness. For example, if the fire attribute is suitable, it is not necessary to write the attribute to the expression, and the subexpression can be reduced.

This omission is supplemented by an image. Instead of having to write a formula, imagining fire during chanting adds fire attributes to magic.

Since most humans have some sort of aptitude, the above diameter is less than or equal to ten centimeters, but in the case of Hajime, due to the total lack of aptitude, the formula had to be written in detail, such as speed, ballistics, diffusion and convergence, in addition to the basic five formulas.

For this reason, it took a magic formation nearly two meters in diameter to release a fireball, and it was not a substitute for use at all in real life.

Incidentally, there are generally two types of magic formations: disposable with special paper or carved into minerals. The former becomes richer in variations but also less powerful in a single disposable manner. The latter has the advantages and disadvantages of not being able to hold the type because it is tense, but it can be used as many times as possible and is powerful. The sceptres held by the Ishtal and other priests are the latter.

That's why melee combat is statefully impossible, magic is inept and impossible, and the "smelting" of the requested vocation/skill is useless just because it can change, stick, or process minerals. They also told me that there were no artifacts to help me smelt, and I just got gloves carved out of the magic formation of smelting.

For once, good luck with the pitfalls? Like, out? can now be made to the ground, and its size is getting a little bigger...

Beyond being a technique that doesn't work unless you touch the subject directly, you have to do the suicide of kneeling in front of the enemy and poking your hand at the ground, which in the end is no different than being useless in combat.

Hajime was totally affixed with incompetent rettels by his classmates over the past two weeks. I have no choice but to accumulate my knowledge...... I can't see much ahead of me and I've had a total increase of sighs here lately.

I think I'm going on a journey, looking out at the blue sky I can see through the library window with Bo. It is largely terminal.

Hajime began to delay (flutter) in his thoughts as he expanded his hard-working sitting knowledge into his head over the past two weeks, wondering where he would go if he was going.

(After all, I'd like to go to the subhuman country. I can't talk about a different world trip without looking at Chemomimi.... but "it's the depths of the tree sea. They can't find it outside first, except as slaves because it's some kind of discriminated species)

As Hajime's knowledge suggests, the sub-tribes are a discriminated race and are basically drawn to the depths of the [Harzena Tree Sea], which extends north-south to the eastern side of the continent. Why they are discriminated against because they have no magic whatsoever.

In the Divine Age, it is said that the gods, beginning with Echt, created this world by divine magic. And the magic currently used is perceived as something like its degraded version. Therefore, the value that magic is a gift from God is strong. Of course, that's what the Episcopal Church teaches us.

Being a race that has no magic whatsoever and cannot use magic because of such circumstances, the subraces are considered evil species abandoned by God.

So, what happens to demons? This means that demons are only perceived as natural disasters and are not considered to benefit God. Looks like it's just a vicious beast. What a convenient interpretation, Hajime was heartbroken.

It should be noted that the Demons worship a different God from the "Echt-like" of the Episcopal Church, but they think the same way about the basic subhuman.

This demonic tribe seems to have a high degree of magical aptitude for all of them, performing powerful magic with chants and small magic formations that are much shorter than the human race. A small number, but in Garland, the kingdom of demons in the centre of the southern continent, seems to unleash fairly powerful offensive magic even on children, which, in a sense, may be described as the nation of the National General Warrior.

The human race defines the Satanic race as an enemy because of the divine differences it worships (the teachings of the Episcopal Church) and discriminates against the subraces if they are not loved by God. Same goes for the Demons. Would the subtribes feel like letting it go already? Every race is truly exclusive.

(Uh-huh, if the tree sea can't do it, why don't we go out to the west ocean? Sure, they have a maritime town called Elisen. Chemomimi can't. But I want to see mermaids. It's a man's romance. And I want seafood dishes)

[The maritime town of Elisen] is a subethnic town said to be seamen, off the coast of the sea to the west. It is the only subtribe in which the kingdom publicly protects itself.

The reason for this is that 80% of the seafood material going out to the North continent is supplied by this town. This is why I have no body or lid at all. "Where did the grand grounds of discrimination go?" And when I heard this story, Hajime put a huge scratch in his heart.

By the way, to get out into the sea to the west, you have to go beyond the [Gruen Grand Desert] in front of it. In this great desert there are important oasis [Duchy of Ankazi] and [Grewen Great Volcano] as relay points for transport. This [Gruen Volcano] is one of the seven great labyrinths.

Seven Great Labyrinths refers to one of the leading danger zones in this world.

This includes the [Orcs Great Labyrinth] and the earlier [Harzena Tree Sea] between the Gruen Desert, southwest of the Kingdom of Heilich.

It is the Seven Labyrinths, but why three, because the existence of others is believed from old literature, etc., but the detailed location is unknown and has not yet been confirmed.

For once, the stars are attached and it is said that [Licen Grand Canyon], which divides the continent between North and South, or [Ice Snow Cave] deep in the [Snow Snow Plains] of the South.

(I guess I can't do the desert...... so I guess I'll just have to go to the empire and see the slaves already...... I'm not sure I can stay calm when I see Chemomimi being enslaved by boulders)

Empire is the [Helshire Empire]. This country appears to be a military state where powerful mercenaries and adventurers gathered roughly three hundred years ago in an emerging country where a group of mercenaries arose during the war against a large demonic tribe. It has merit supremacy and looks like a pretty black country.

There are many slave traders in this country who deal with sub people, with the idea of using what they can use, no matter what.

The empire exists east of the kingdom across the [neutral commercial city of Furen].

[Furen] is literally a neutral commercial city that does not depend on any country. It uses its power, which is inseparable from the operation of the state, called economic power, to the fullest extent and is neutral. It is as commercially centric a city as they say you can get if you have the things you want.

(Huh, in the end, if you want to go home, you can't run away. Shit, it's training time!

In the end, Hajime shakes his head that it's just a real escape, and leaves the library in a hurry when he realizes that training time is imminent. The journey to the royal palace is short and at the end of the eyes and nose, but the hustle and bustle of the king's capital can also be heard on its journey. The call of the outdoor shopkeeper, the voice of a child playing, scolding an overshaken child, is truly routine and peaceful.

(After all, I was wondering if you could let me go because it doesn't seem like a war.)

Hajime dreamed of such an impossible thing. It is a reality escape from the melancholy (depressing) time that is about to begin.

When we arrived at the training facility, several students had already come and scolded and self-trained. Apparently, we arrived early. Hajime took out a skinny Western-style sword that was given to him, wondering whether to wait even in voluntary practice.

And, at that time, Hajime abruptly stepped on a shock from behind. Cold sweat erupts with the sword of the stripper in front of him, although he manages to avoid falling. Hajime looked back at his back with a glance at his face and gave him a heartfelt and fed up look at his face as expected.

There he was, a quartet of small villains (Hajime naming) led by Daisuke Cypress Mountain. Every time I start training, I get a little bite out of Hajime. This is half the reason Hajime feels depressed about his training. (The other half is my incompetence)

"Oh, Nagumo. What are you doing? It wouldn't make sense if you had a sword. Seriously, I'm incompetent."

"Hey, Cypress Mountain said too much! How true is that? Gahahaha."

"Why do you come out to training every time? I wouldn't be ashamed of myself! Hihihi."

"Hey, Daisuke. This guy, he's already pathetic, so why don't we arch him?

What the hell is so funny Niyanya, the Cypress Mountains laughing at Guerraggera.

"Oh? Come on, Shinji, you're serious, aren't you? Well, am I sweet, too? You can put an archery on it, but come on."

"Oh, that's good. We're super sweet. You said you'd use your time for incompetence. Nagumo - thank you, right?

The Cypress Mountains take you to those who are familiar and shoulder to shoulder with saying that. Plus, my classmates seem to have noticed, but they pretend not to see it.

"No, I'll do it alone, 'cause it's okay. You can leave me alone."

For once, I'm going to say no with ease. Hajime.

"Huh? What are you talking about us bothering to train you incompetent? Seriously, it's impossible. You just have to say thank you!

That's what I said, Cypress Mountain hitting the flank. Hajime groans as he faces the pain.

The Cypress Mountains seem to be gradually losing sight of the violence. Though adolescent boys suddenly have no choice but to drown if they gain great power, they are not at liberty to be targeted at the spearhead. I don't even have enough power to defy it. Hajime had no choice but to devour his teeth.

Eventually, when coming from the training facility to an unpopular place that was a dead end, Cypress Mountain thrust Hajime.

"Look, just get up. Time for some fun training, huh?

Four people surround Hajime: Cypress Mountain, Nakano, Saito and Kondo. Hajime stood up biting her lips into remorse.

"Guh!?

At that moment, he was hit hard in the back from behind. Kondo hit him with a sheath of swords. More pursuits are added to the hajime that falls before screaming.

"Look, what are you asleep for? It's gonna burn. I want it burned here -" Fireball. "

Nakano unleashes the fire attribute magic "Fireball". Hajime, who cannot get up immediately due to the pain in his back and being right after he falls, manages to avoid the gobbling and desperate rolling. But as we anticipated it, Saito unleashed magic this time.

"I want a wind blow here -" Windballs. "

A chunk of wind struck directly into the stomach of the hajime, which was about to rise, and the hajime was blown on his back. "Oops," he squatted, spitting stomach fluids.

The magic itself is a bar of inferior magic. Still powerful enough to be beaten by a professional boxer. That is due to the fact that their level of aptitude and the mediation engraved by the magic formation are artifacts paid for by the state.

"Hey, seriously, it's too weak. Nagumo, come on, are you seriously motivated?

Saying so, Cypress Mountain puts a kick in the belly of a squat (Uzuma) Hajime. Hajime makes the most of it because it reduces the feeling of vomiting.

For some time afterwards, the lynching under the name of archaeology continues. Hajime bites his back teeth into remorse as he endures pain and wonders why he is only weak. Maybe we should fight back even if we're not supposed to be enemies.

But since I was a little girl, Hajime, who was so bad at fighting with people, at being hostile or malicious to someone, was always breaking himself when he was about to fight with someone. That's where the story ends if you put up with yourself. Much better than fighting, that's what I think.

Some people say hajime like that is sweet, others are just heckles. Hajime himself doesn't know either.

When it was time for the pain to become intolerable, suddenly, the angry girl's voice sounded.

"What are you doing!?

Cypress Mountains with the face "Yabe" on their voices. That would be so. Because the girl was a fragrant weave that the Cypress Mountains were in love with. There are not only Kaori, but Shizukuishi, Kwanghui and Ryutaro as well.

"No, I hope you don't get me wrong, we were just hanging out with Nagumo's special training..."

"Nagumo-kun!

Ignoring Cypress Mountain's illustration, Kaori rushes over to Hajime, who coughs and squatts. The moment I saw how Hajime was, it seemed that the Cypress Mountains had disappeared from my head.

"Special training. Sounds pretty one-sided to me, though?

"No, that's..."

"Excellent excuse. I'm in the same class because I don't think Nagumo is up for battle. You shouldn't do this again."

"If you have time to fuck around, train yourself."

The Three Kings recruited him, and the Cypress Mountains walked away with a deluded laugh. Hajime is gradually healed by the healing magic of Kaori.

"Oh, thank you. Mr. Shirazaki, thank you."

Kaori shakes her head with a bumbling face about to cry at the bitter laughing hajime.

"Did they always do that? Then I..."

Hajime rushes to stop Kaori, who sees Cypress Mountains leave in some angry phase.

"No, because that's not always the case! It's okay, really, never mind!

"But..."

Hajime smiles "okay" again at the seemingly convincing scented weave. Reluctantly, the fragrance weave finally pulls down as well.

"Nagumo, if you need anything, don't hesitate to say it. Kaori would be more convinced."

Shizuku says, laughing bitterly at Kaori, who has a sinister look on his side. Hajime to thank you for that too. But that's where the brave quality waters down.

"But Nagumo himself should try harder. You wouldn't be strong enough to use weakness as an excuse, would you? Listen, when you don't have training, you're stuck in the library reading, right? I'd spend some free time working out to get a little stronger. Nagumo, too, should be a little more serious. The Cypress Mountains might have tried to do something about Nagumo's lack of seriousness, too, right?

How do I interpret what makes it so? Hajime laughs half-heartedly, oh sure the River of Heaven was basically the guy who interprets people's behavior in his theory of sexual goodness.

Heavenly River thought patterns basically humans don't do so bad. If you did something that looked like that, you must have a good reason. Maybe the other guy has a cause! through the process.

Besides, there is no serious malice in the words of Gwanghui. I seriously think of Hajime and advise him. Hajime is already shriveled to solve misunderstandings. That it would be useless to say anything to a human being who doesn't question his own thought or sense of justice so far.

You know that. Shizukuishi sighs as she covers her face with her hands and apologizes small to Hajime.

"I'm sorry, huh? I don't mean to offend Hikaru."

"Ahaha, yeah, I know, I'm fine"

Hajime still smiles and replies okay. Wake up tapping dirty clothes.

"Look, I'm already starting my training. Shall we?"

Hajime prompted me to return to the training facility. Kaori seemed worried all the time, but Hajime pretended not to notice. I just kind of hated being sweet on a boulder, on a classmate girl as a man.

While returning to the training facility, Hajime exhaled several deep sighs today. Indeed, the future is very difficult.

After the training was over, it would normally be free time until dinner time, but this time it was stopped from being told by Captain Meld. Captain Meld tells the students who pay attention to something in a wild voice.

"Starting tomorrow, I'm going on an expedition to the [Orcs Great Labyrinth] as part of my practical training. I have what I need here, but think I'll draw the line from my previous training in action against demons outside the King's Capital! Well, in short, it means feel good! Get some rest today! Okay, dissolve!

That's what I said and I just told him to tell him, and he just went away. Hajime looks up to heaven at the rear of the students deliberately surrounded by hustle and bustle.

(... It's a really difficult future)
