The parents and children of Brao and Ryuuze became quiet after being rebuked by Tigre-sensei, who had a stiff, scary look on his face.

The parents’ faces were a little tense, and the students were tense and their backs stretched out. In this atmosphere, Tigre-sensei continued to talk with an awkward smile.

“Now, I’m just going to go over my textbooks and then I’ll be on my way …… Now that the parents are here, I’d like you to introduce yourselves. Can you …… tell me about yourselves?”

Yup, I’m sure he’s a nice guy, though his face is scary. The only problem is that he sometimes seems to say “I”, which means he might have a bad mouth.

This is how we began our introductions, but since I, Nora, Luciel, and Ryuuze knew each other, there were only six of us left.

“My name is Yogus. I like to read. My skill is [Appraisal]. Nice to meet you.”

“Hmm, reading and appraising seem to be a good match. Nice to meet you, Yogus.”

“Yes.”

The first one is a boy with glasses named Yogus, who is cool and calm and has a short introduction …… It sounds good, but reading the book gave him a cold impression of being in a world of his own. He seems to be the type of person who can study well but doesn’t seem to make friends.

I listened with my cheekbones resting in one of my hands thinking, “I mean, you’re supposed to introduce skills too”. It seems like it would be a weakness when he grows up, but what about that?

“Yogus, right. Okay, next.”

“Y, yes! I’m Kuderica. My skill is …… [Superhuman Strength] …… Whaaa, so embarrassing ……”

“Good luck, Kuu-chan!”

“Haha, is that your mother? So you’re Kuderica. It’s quite unusual for a girl to have a superhuman strength. Is there anything you want to be in the future?”

“Yes, I want to be an adventurer like you, Mizuki-san!”

“I see, then polishing your skills will surely help you! …… memo memo ……”

The second is Kuderica, a girl with short, orange twin-tails. She stood up with her hands cletched and introduced herself. It’s a skill that seems to be monstrously powerful, but I’m not sure if that’s appropriate for a girl …… Oh right, that demon said it was random, so I’m convinced it’s possible.

“Then the next one is ……”

“That’s me! My name is Jack. Nice to meet you guys! I’m going to take over our fish shop in the future, so come and buy some fish! My skill is called [Collaboration]!”

“You’re so energetic! It’s worth training …… It’s not a skill you’d use in a fish shop, but maybe it’ll be interesting. You could collaborate with Roen-san’s place that sells vegetables ……?”

“Nice to meet you!”

Jack, the third person, said and sat down. This town is far from the sea, so it’s quite difficult to buy fish here, so we basically buy fish that came from rivers and lakes. But if we can somehow transport the fish from a town where there is an ocean, we can eat sea fish. But I’ve seen it too, and it’s expensive ……

“Thank you, Jack, then next–“

“Yes yes! The next one is …… me! The super cute Helena-chan! My skill is [Dancing Master], and I’m planning to go to the Capital one day to make my theatrical debut.”

She got up from her chair in high tension, and the chair fell down with a thud as she introduced herself. Then, a pale brown-skinned girl with a ponytail throws a kiss at us. That was Helena, our fourth classmate.

“Dancing Master is a rare skill. Are you good at singing and dancing?”

“I’m not good at singing at all! But I’m confident in my dancing?”

Helena winked and wiggled her hips, looking very happy. She reminded me of an idol training program I had watched in my previous life, and I thought her face was cute and she would make a good idol.

“It’s tough to get a chance in the Capital, but it’s not zero. Let’s study hard and do our best.”

“Yes!”

“I wonder if you need an educational background in the royal capital? I thought it would be worth the high price.”

In the back of the room, the brown mother was also laughing and talking to the parents around her. The enrollment fee is quite high, but I wonder what her job is …… She looks quite flirtatious ……

As I was thinking about this, the fifth person raised her hand, stood up and opened her mouth.

“I wonder if I can have my turn now?”

“Yeah, Helena, are you done now?”

“Yes! Can you introduce yourself properly ……?”

Helena gave the next girl who took her seat an unpleasant look and said something like that. But the girl with the long black hair, who didn’t seem to mind, straightened her back with a dignified expression and said.

“I’m Makina. My skill is [Kaiser Knuckle]. If you mess with me ……”

Whoosh whoosh ……

“I’ll smash you.”

“Wow, she’s amazing! I couldn’t see her hand movements…”

As Nora said, the grinning Makina’s hand was moving so fast that only I could probably see that she was actually doing a Rock-Paper-Scissors. Seeing the bitter look on Helena’s face, maybe they don’t get along.

“I’m hoping to become a knight in the Capital in the future. Nice to meet you.”

“Yes, sir!”

“Hmm!”

Makina smiled at Nora and Luciel, and they both panicked. Luciel’s reply was cute, as if she was surprised or something.

“A female knight, huh? It’s very popular these days, so if you train up your Kaiser Knuckles, you can probably make it. Let’s do our best!”

“Yes.”

After saying that, she sat down quietly and Tigre-sensei called the sixth person. I noticed that there was a boy who was looking down all the time.

“Er, it’s Urka-kun, right? Introduce yourself.”

“Eh, ah, yes, ……”

“Good luck, son. ……!”

“D, Dad, It’s embarrassing so stop it …… I-I’m, Urka. I have the [Spiritual Art] skill ……”

Another strange skill …… but honestly, I’m interested. I think it would be interesting if he could talk to spirits or control the undead. Well, this kind of skill can’t be obtained with [Super Jack-of-all-Trades], so I’d like to see it.

Then, Ryuuze pulls his head back and opened his mouth.

“You have the ability to see ghosts or something like that, right? That’s creepy.”

“Hey, Ryuuze-kun, don’t talk like that!”

“Yes.”

He replied without seeming to be offended by Tigre-san’s anger. I thought he wasn’t scared, but he was sweating and looking away from him, so I guess he was bluffing.

“Geez …… my son is not creepy ……! The time is not about skill! it’s about smarts!”

“Isn’t that what a commoner’s son is like? It’s hard to be a dropout.”

“What does it matter to the child! And I’m not a dropout!”

“Are you defying your lord, you ……!”

Urka’s father seemed to be the hot-blooded type, and he was furious with Brao for saying so much, he pounced on him. When my dad and the others tried to stop the screaming outdoors ……

Bang!

The teacher’s desk rang loudly. And then–

*Snapping sound* ……

“Brao-san, the using your power is ……”

“Y, Yeah, I know! Stop making that hand from snapping!”

You can’t miss the cracks in the desk, though …… That’s how Urka sat in his chair, red-faced and grimacing.

“I’m Nora, and I have the skill [Animal Lover]! Nice to meet you!”

“You’re so cute, Nora-chan!”

“Wawawa ……”

Mom got excited when Nora introduced herself.

“I’m Ryuuze! I possess the rare skill of “Magic Swordsman”! I can make you my henchman, you know? I’ll be the next lord! Guah!?”

“Since you still don’t seem to understand, it’s a fist bone.”

Luse finally takes a knuckles punch in the head, and now it was Luciel’s turn.

“Ah, Er, I’m Luciel Bryon. My family owns a merchant business and my skill is [Jewel Master], which is a skill for finding and processing ores. It’s nice to meet you.”

She smiled more clearly than in the past, and Luciel had a last name. I thought she was an aristocrat, but I heard that merchants are treated like aristocrats when they make money, so that makes sense.

But more importantly, a skill to deals with mineral resources is …… so simple …… you can’t imagine how pretty she looks, but for some reason, you can’t help but smile as you imagine Luciel in a construction site uniform.

“…… Hey, what are you laughing at? It’s your turn, poor man.”

“Ohhhh, it’s my turn.”

“Tsk ……”

I decided not to be too happy or sad about Ryuuze’s sarcasm, so I got up from my seat and introduced myself.

“I’m Lars Irving. I’ve been told that my skills [Jack-of-all-Trades] are a failure.”

There was a groan from everyone. I don’t care, I continue.

“But regardless of my skill, I want you to get along with me. But I want us to get along regardless of our skills. There may be times when I need help from everyone because of my failure skills, but I’d be happy if you could help me out when that happens.”

“Yeah, that’s good. You can’t live alone. You will always have to rely on someone else, it’s great that you’re thinking about it now! Work out …… Cough. Well, that’s everyone. From now on, the ten of you will engage in friendly competition, so let’s do our best!”

The self-introductions ended with Tigre’s closing remarks.

Now, I wonder what will happen to my classmates who seem to have their own quirks. I leaned back in my chair with a mixture of anticipation and anxiety.

Next time, school life finally begins!

Thank you for reading!
