"...... Well, if you're Nell's hired stooge, fine. To be honest, we're in a cat's paw situation right now. If you're the man of influence, you're welcome. Let's go inside for now.

　The knight in light armor - the woman who was called Carlotta - with a rather mild attitude, urged us to do so, with a warning glare that faded away.

　O......? Does this feel right?
　You're good, brave. You're pretty trustworthy.

　You're not going to be able to find out what's going on with the rest of us.

............?

　--Discomfort.

　The moment you go under the tattered door, an uncomfortable feeling runs through you, as if something unknown has passed through your body for a moment.

　What has been done ......?

"You notice that ...... is now . You're really good at that.

　She looks at me, somewhat surprised.

"...... What did you do?

"Don't be so defensive. As expected, we are not so thoughtless as to let a stranger inside, even though we were introduced by Nell. If you were able to get through that door, it doesn't seem to be someone who means us any harm. And if you're a human, then you're a human: ...... The mask is not a magic tool either: ......

　A man comes up to you from the back of the room, sooty, and hands you a piece of paper, looking at it and muttering to yourself, Carotta.

'What ......?'

　At those words, the brave man involuntarily turns to the knight.

　I cowered my shoulders as I urged the brave man to be silent with my gaze.

"Of course. I've only come to help the hero.

"Huh. ...... Okay. I'm sorry.

　I was in a panic.

　Good grief! Scary, b*tc*! You look like you've let your guard down on me, but you're just trying to be normal!

　Good, thank goodness you asked Nell in advance if there is a spell that can tell you what your opponent is capable of. If you didn't, you'd be out of luck right now.

　--Of course I was judged to be human, I wasn't reborn as a human. This is the effect of my newly acquired skill, Disguise.

　This skill is similar to the status tampering Leffi used to do, allowing you to show your opponent what you want them to see and hide what you don't want them to see. I've already changed the status on the way here.
　I've spent my DP on this one, instead of the remote control robot.

　So this is what my current status should look like to them.


　Name: Wai
　Race: Human
　Class: Thief
　Level: 35
　HP: 1603/1603
　MP: 1167/1167
　Muscle strength: 411
　Durability: 443
　Agility: 682
　Magical power: 451
　Dexterity: 638
　Good luck: 72
　Skills: body art lv III, covert lv IV, search for enemies lv III, sword art lv I
　Title: The absconder


　The name "Y" is just the first letter of Yuki. I'll remember myself as a pseudonym if it's as simple as this.
　I set the status about two times lower than the heroic Nell, and since I set the class to Thief on a whim, I've slightly increased its agility and dexterity.
　I've left the skills as well, and since I've heard that the skill level is V and that he's an expert in his field, I've lowered the overall value a bit.
　As for the titles, I've left these ones that didn't seem to have any problems, since they were kind of empty.

　I don't know how far they saw my status, but with this, I should be able to pass as a pretty good competitor among humans.

　Incidentally, this is my real status right now.


　Name: Yuki
　Race: Demon King
　Class: Demon King of Absolution
　Level: 43
　HP: 3101/3101
　MP: 10442/10442/10442
　Strength: 911
　Durability: 926
　Agility: 818
　Magic power: 1161
　Dexterity: 1423
　Good luck: 73
　Skill points: 0
　Unique skills: magic eye, language translation, flying
　Skills: item box, analysis (analyze) lv VIII, body art lv IV, proto-magic lv V, covert lv V, search enemy lv V, swordsmanship lv II, weapon smelting lv IV, magic granting lv IV, trapping lv I, great sword art lv II, disguise lv II, crisis detection lv I
　Titles: otherworldly demon king, master of the high dragon, absconder, adversary of humanity
　DP: 104356


　The level is a little higher than before, and the overall skill level has gone up as well. The skill level of the swordsmanship skill has finally gone up by one as well. Yes!


　The three new skills that were added were "Grand Sword Art", "Disguise", which I obtained in DP for this project, and "Crisis Detection", which I saved because it seemed to be useful as well.
　The "Great Swordsmanship" skill level increased on its own as I swung my sword around, while the "Disguise" skill level increased by spending all the skill points I had on the "Disguise" skill.

　It's not that high of a skill level, but it's enough to deal with guys whose status is far lower than mine.

"Wai, was it? Let's not even ask who you are. As long as we have no harm in mind, it's no problem. Given your abilities, will you cooperate with us?

"That's what I was going to do in the first place?

"Thanks. I'm sure we're short on people. So let's go inside this time.

　I'm not going to be the only one who can do that.

　You'll be able to get a good idea of what's going on in the area, as well as you'll be able to find out what's going on.

"...... guy, what did you do?

"I messed with my end of the bargain. I told you. It's okay.

...... Yeah, I was honestly really nervous, but it was good.

　Well, I was excited too. You know, he's just going to try to figure out who I am when I'm off my game. Maybe she was aiming for that moment from the start.

It's this way. Watch your step, because the road is a little bumpy.

　As we walked through a nondescript ramshackle house, Carotta suddenly stopped in front of a mere wall and said, "I'm going to tell you about 'The Way to the Lord.

'The Way to the Lord'.

　--Yes, as soon as she says the words, a door appears on the wall.

...... Oh.

　Wow, that's a real hidden door. I've always wanted to go through one of these.

　Behind the door the lady knight opened, a passage seems to lead underground, with a dim light hanging from the ceiling, faintly illuminating the plain passage.

Well, let's go then.

　After saying that, I followed the female knight who started walking again, with a little excitement in my heart.
