Volume 16 Chapter 12 [Change] and [Enhancement Bestowal]

Volume 16 Chapter 12 [Change] And [Enhancement Bestowal]


 Goldred Bradraider... huh.


 Thinking his name sounded tough and feeling out of place, I cautiously prepared myself.


 "...Rain Garland."


 I introduced myself again.


 "I know. I know that you're the 'Relic Holder' of [Enhancement Bestowal], wield the legendary sword 'Refaid Sword,' and defeated the Light Dragon King. And... you're aiming for 'The Heart of the Stars.'"


 His gaze, assessing me, felt oddly cold.


 "Do you also possess a 'Relic Holder'?"

 "Yeah. My ability is [Change]――the power to 'Change' anything."


 Goldred declared as if singing.


 Maybe his power is the reason why the path and scenery suddenly changed?


 "You and that Victor guy, I actually wanted to drive you guys to a much farther place. But the effect of [Change] is something I can't fully control. The accuracy regarding the target of change and the shape after change is not consistent."


 Goldred let out a light sigh.


 "You've come to the 'correct' route, the most challenging one."

 "So, the road to you is the 'correct' one?"

 "That's right. Divide the relic holders and eliminate them one by one--"


 Goldred's gaze felt even colder.


 The indifferent look on him was like he was looking at trash lying on the side of the road.


 Separate me from Victor-san and the other members, and target only me-- in other words, it seems his goal is to individually defeat each relic holder.

 Considering that Deeta, Cyril, Jig, who I fought with, all had overwhelming skills. So, Goldred's power probably is at a level that can compete with my [Enhancement Bestowal].


 "What is a 'Relic Holder'? Have you ever thought about it?"


 Goldred suddenly asked.


 "I only have the impression that it's a very powerful skill."

 "Hmm. It is true that it is incredibly powerful compared to regular skills, but that is not the whole truth."


 Goldred shook his head.


 "Don't you want to know the truth, Rain Garland?"

 "What are you trying to say?"


 I glanced around.


 I don't know specifically what the ability of [Change] is, or what he will come up with.


 But don't be too distracted by the conversation with him.


 "Don't you want to know? Don't you want to know? Huh?"


 Goldred asked.


 "No, not really."


 I'm actually interested, but...


 "...Tch, just ask me to 'please tell me'. I'm itching to explain, really."

 "Huh?"


 Goldred's tone and atmosphere suddenly seemed to change...?


 "Sorry. I momentarily lost myself."


 Goldred coughed.


 "Wasn't your character different just now?"

 "It's just your imagination."

 "Really?"

 "It's just your imagination."

 "No, it was definitely different."


 Goldred's fervent denials are making me even more curious.


 "Please just pretend it's just your imagination."

 "Could it be a touchy subject you don't want to discuss...?"

 "What is a 'Relic Holder' - have you ever thought about it, Rain?"


 Goldred asked the same question as before.


 Well, I guess I'll go along with the conversation since there's no other choice.


 "No, I only recently found out that my enchantment magic is that 'Relic Holder' thing... What exactly is a 'Relic Holder'?"

 "Hmm. First of all, your power is not a 'Bestowal' magic."

 "Huh?"

 "While it operates with a similar technique to magic... it's originally a completely different supernatural ability."


 Goldred explained.


 "My [Enhancement Bestowal] isn't magic...?"

 "Where should I start explaining...? Well, let's start from the basics of how the world works. Take your time."


 Goldred said, his eyes sparkling strangely.


 "I could even talk about it for days if you want."

 "No, I'd prefer a brief explanation if possible..."

 "Hmm."


 Goldred looked disappointed.


 "Well, spending too much time might allow other relic holders to get ahead... It's unfortunate, but let's keep it brief this time."


 ...So it looks like it's Goldred's lecture turn.
