58-58. Rainbow-colored sacred water




 I am going to be a nuisance to Isabella and Issa's house for a while.

 As Isabella said, I will be working. Work in this house means getting food, fetching firewood, fetching water, working in the fields behind the house, etc. They didn't make any money and they lived a self-sufficient life.

 Sometimes they would go into town to sell things they didn't need and use the money to buy bread and other good food.
 It was at this very moment that Issa helped me.

''I'm going to ask Rico-onnae-chan to help me hunt, but can you use magic?''

 Food is mainly gathered by going to the forest to collect wildflowers and reeds, and by hunting. When they hunt, they use magic, and Issa and Isabella were very good at using magic.
 Isabella was old enough now to work in the fields instead of hunting, and it seemed that Isa was in charge of the hunt.

'Magic? One, it's not working.

 I knew then that there was magic, but I couldn't use it. It's a bit of a stretch now, but I can use it.

''Err, then show me your status.
Status... what is...?
'What? I don't know! Thus, status open! Speaking of which, you saw the tablet in front of me. I can tell you the status by looking at this.

 This was the first time I had ever heard of statuses.
 I had played the game in the real world a few times, so I knew the word status itself, but the idea that it was possible to see it never occurred to me.

 Huh? Did you suddenly understand, Tetsuya?
 Recently, light novels that go to other worlds were popular, so I did it anyway, right?
 I didn't know that, I like to read, but I don't read light novels very often. I didn't know that.

 So then I say "status open" and I see my status for the first time.

 There may be a slight margin of error, but this is what it looked like, as I recall.

 Name Riko Satomi.
 Age 16
 Level 1/48
 HP 20/20
 MP 4/4
 Attack Power 2
 Defensive Power 2
 Speed 3
 Skill Points 0
 Skill [Rainbow-colored divine water]
 No resistance

 My age, yes, I'm 16.
 So you're 15 years old, Lenya? That's a year difference.

 My status is naturally quite low since I'm still level 1.

 The problem is this 【Rainbow-colored Divine Water】 skill.
 Tetsuya-san has a skill called 【Corpse Absorption】, right? I think this is also a very powerful skill, but my 【Rainbow-colored Divine Water】 was also a very powerful skill.

But level 1 is strange. Even if you're just living a normal life, you're at least 10. What have you been doing all this time?
"Well, uh...

 I'm having trouble answering that question. I'm level 1 even though I'm older because there was no system of levels in my previous world, but I don't know how to explain it.
 Seeing me at a loss for an answer, Issa said

I don't mind if you can't talk about it.

 She said. She's a good-natured child.

''But what is [Rainbow Divine Water]? What kind of skills? I hope you can't tell me this either.
'Hmmm, this is the first time I've ever opened a status, so this is the first time I've ever heard of a skill.
'Really? Why don't you try it?
"........how does it work?
''Just name the skill. [Rainbow-colored divine water]! It's like.
''Oh yeah ... er ... [rainbow colored divine water]!

 As I said this, seven balls of water about the size of a person's head appeared and floated fluffily around me.

 Each one is a different color.
 The seven colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and purple. They are just like the colors of the rainbow.

 The first time I used it, I was confused. It's just water floating around. I have no idea what to do with it.

'What do you use this for?'
I don't know.
You should try it. Kuhn kuhn ... it smells pretty good!

 When I heard that, I half-smelled it and sure enough, it is. I smelled the red water and it smelled like strawberry juice.

'I'll give it a lick,'
So, are you okay?

 Issa puts the red water on her finger and licks it.

'Delicious! ........What?!

 I suddenly shouted out.

''What, what's wrong?''

 I ask, surprised, and Issa suddenly says, "Status open" and gives me a status.

 And then I look at it.

I knew it.

 I mutter shakily.
 I was worried that something bad had happened, but it wasn't.

''Level 2 up....''
