Even if I transform, I will never be captured.

"Mr. Kazuma Sato, right? Apart from your slightly higher intelligence and luck, your other attributes are quite average, and the only job you can choose is the most basic [Adventurer]."

—Hope vanished completely at this moment.

"Next one, it's my turn!"

Pushing aside the stunned Kazuichi Sato, Aqua placed her hand on the magical artifact being tested.

The card shone brightly.

"This...this is...except for intelligence and luck being at the lowest level, all other parameters are far above the average! This is incredible!"

Kazuma Sato's eyes widened: "Huh?"

As Aqua received cheers from the adventurers, a beautiful girl named Satella stepped forward and placed her hand on the card.

The card shone brightly once more.

"Hmm... While not as amazing as the previous Aqua-sama, aside from slightly low muscle strength and stamina being at the lowest level, all other attributes are quite good, especially magic power, which is already quite amazing for a newcomer. Moreover, judging from the brilliance of the card, you have great potential!"

Kazuma Sato's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets: "Huh?! Huh?! Huh?!"

Aqua being a goddess is understandable, but Kosatella... I originally thought they were all the same kind of newcomers, but at this moment, Kazuma Sato realized that they were completely different!

P.S. 2. Regarding that attribute test, to be honest, I've always been confused. Theoretically, it seems to be based on the current attribute, but the word "potential" is mentioned more than once in the original work. So here, I'll define the attribute obtained from the test as "a combination of the current attribute and the potential attribute".

Chapter 60 Satella - The Adventure Begins

The current figures are only slightly above average, but the potential is extraordinary.

This one sentence can be used to summarize Satella's current attributes.

Satella received her adventurer card from the counter lady named Luna without much emotional reaction.

It should be said that having such attributes was almost within her expectations.

After all, her body hasn't undergone much training, so it's normal for her original attributes to be somewhat low.

However, since her body is that of the Witch of Jealousy and she also has the constitution of a half-elf, it is only natural that she would have great potential.

While Satella was browsing her attributes, Kazuma Sato and Aqua had already completed their job changes.

Just like in the original story, one of them changed jobs to the most basic class, "Adventurer," while the other changed jobs to the advanced class, "High Priest."

"So, what profession would you like to switch to, miss?"

The saleswoman named Luna smiled very eagerly at Satella and patiently explained:

"Because your stamina is relatively low, you cannot change to defensive professions like knights. You can choose any other basic professions. However, since your magic power and intelligence are at a high level, even reaching the point where you can directly change to an advanced profession, I would recommend an advanced profession like archmage."

“I choose to change my class to [Adventurer],” Satella replied without hesitation.

Time stood still.

The adventurers cheered because two promising newcomers had appeared at once.

Iris gave Satella an excited smile.

And Luna, who looked at Satella with expectant eyes.

Even Aqua, who was mocking Sato Kazuma.

—Everyone froze.

"that……"

Luna gave Satella a perplexing look, as if to say, "Am I hearing things?" and offered a dry smile.

"Miss Satella, I think I misheard something. Could you please repeat it? What job do you want to change to?"

“Adventurer,” Satella said again without hesitation.

boom!

This caused an uproar throughout the entire Adventurers' Guild.

"Someone actually volunteered to change their class to adventurer!"

"I've been in the Adventurers' Guild for so long, and this is the first time I've encountered something like this!"

"Has this girl lost her mind?"

"..."

Even Aqua, who had been bribed by a thousand Eris, hurriedly advised, "Satella, you need to think this through. The Adventurer class is the most basic class, and you can tell from that that it's terrible! Although you can learn the skills of all classes, you not only need to be taught, but you also need to consume more skill points. There are no class bonuses either. You could say you're a jack of all trades, master of none... In short, this is the kind of class only a lazy bum like Kazuma would choose!"

...I've decided. When I go to bed tonight, I'll dig a hole and secretly bury this useless goddess!

Kazuma Sato stared with dead fish eyes.

However, I felt a faint sense of emotion and a glimmer of hope.

To be honest, he was greatly discouraged by this attribute test, and even began to doubt himself.

Seeing Satella determined to become an adventurer in this situation evoked a sense of familiarity.

—So, she really is the heroine I was destined to be.

"My dear sister, please think this over carefully," Elise joined the chorus of persuasion. "This concerns your entire life!"

Gently patting Iris's head, Satella gave the anxious girl a reassuring smile and explained, "It's precisely because I've thought it through carefully that I'm deciding to become an adventurer."

Satella's understanding of skills is completely different from these people.

Most people believe that specializing in one type of professional skill is the best, but Satella believes that having more skills means having more security.

For example, it would be quite difficult for a soldier to survive in the wilderness, but if he learned magic—even just the most basic fire-starting and water-making skills—then the adventure would be much easier.

Similarly, if a mage is ambushed and forced into melee combat, the situation will inevitably be quite dangerous, but if he has learned certain melee skills, his situation will be much better.

Although the power of her skills would be much weaker without the class bonus, Satella is not from this world. She can travel through many planes, so why would she be afraid of not finding items to increase the power of her skills?

Not to mention, the above are not the main reasons.

What truly made Satella decide to switch to the [Adventurer] class was her right hand.

Satella's right hand harbors an ability called "Imagine Breaker," though it's an incomplete version, it's still an Imagine Breaker and can eliminate supernatural abilities.

The only difference is that the incomplete version of Imagine Breaker can only destroy abilities that it can understand.

In a sense, this is similar to the Reflection Web that Accelerator set up for himself.

In short, this means that Satella will find it difficult to learn magic or other supernatural abilities on her own.

Because learning implies understanding, and understanding will be eliminated.

However, in the world of Konosuba, learning skills does not require understanding them yourself; you only need to acquire skill points and then activate the skills.

Therefore, this is the only place where I can freely learn skills.

For this reason, Satella naturally had to change her class to [Adventurer], which allows her to learn all skills.

Page 86

Moreover, isn't it common sense that the protagonist can learn any skill when changing jobs?

Leaving aside Kazuma Sato, who is right in front of her, in the novels Satella read in her previous life, many protagonists, including the famous Ye Xiu, all chose this type of profession.

In short, the seemingly useless "adventurer" is actually a profession specially prepared for the protagonist!

"It's decided, I'm going to become an adventurer!"

Suppressing all dissenting voices, Satella spoke resolutely.

"Very well, as you wish, Miss."

Luna sighed, gave Satella a very complicated look, and sighed again, making Satella feel a little uneasy before helping Satella complete the job change.

After a faint light flashed by, Satella's adventurer card displayed her class name and level 1.

Looking at these words, Satella breathed a sigh of relief—finally, she had made her way into this world.

So, what follows is...

Turning around, Satella shook the heavy money pouch in her hand at the adventurers who were still gossiping.

"As you can see, I now want to learn skills."

With a slight smile, Satella said:

"So, I have a job here that makes it really easy to earn money. Would you like to give it a try?"

Chapter 61 Magic

"The lonely river that connects to the underworld will eventually reach the abyss of life, where the soul will be frozen—"

This is a wide plain outside the town.

The afternoon sun shone on the earth, and in this atmosphere, Satella closed her eyes slightly, held her staff in front of her, and stood like a goddess. Magic began to echo in the air, stirring the black skirt to flutter gently.

The chanting, like a song, resounded throughout the entire plain.

Temperatures plummeted, and ice crystals appeared in the air.

Kazuma Sato and Aqua, standing to the side, were trembling.

However, what made them tremble was not the sudden drop in temperature, but the frogs hopping towards them.

Although it's a frog, but...

"These are ridiculously big!" Kazuma Sato screamed like a duck. "They're bigger than cows! I feel the ground shaking every time they jump! Dangerous! Extremely dangerous! Should we retreat for now, discuss our tactics, and then come back to fight them?"

"A mere frog is nothing to scare this goddess! But still, a dozen frogs are a bit too many—of course I'm not scared! It's just that killing so many at once will affect the ecological balance of the surrounding area, so let's let them go!"

Despite saying she wasn't afraid, Aqua's legs were already trembling.
