You call this magic?

This magic will bring him an infinite sense of security, and he no longer has to worry about his companions getting into trouble.

Even if you die, I can still bring you back.

However, Ethan did not act rashly. Judging from their appearance, they were probably still in the initial stage of laying the foundation. When they were ready to officially start their life as adventurers, it would be time for Ethan to step forward.

Although it would be exhausting to team up with Sato Kazuma and Aqua given their behavior, Ethan decided to tolerate their willfulness as much as possible for the sake of the resurrection magic.

Thinking of this, Ethan stood up and took the coins left by Chris to pay the bill.

Although he had gold coins on him, he couldn't use them directly. Fortunately, he could treat them as ancient relics and even sell them for a higher price than normal gold coins.

"Hello, I would like to register as an adventurer."

Ethan came to the counter and gave a sunny smile to the mature lady inside the counter.

Hiss, the girls in this world are so bold.

The young and beautiful counter lady's clothes exposed her chest so much that Ethan didn't even know where to look for a moment.

The lady at the counter had a gentle smile. She had probably seen too many newcomers like Ethan, so there was a hint of imperceptible stiffness in her smile: "Okay, you need to pay the login fee to log in, is that okay?"

Damn, there’s a handling fee. Is this how it is in the original work?

He had no impression of these details anyway.

"how much is it?"

"Well, the registration fee for new members is one thousand eris."

Ethan fell into deep thought. He didn't know if Chris had enough money left to pay for a thousand eris, and he didn't recognize the currency of this world.

In fact, he was worrying too much. After paying the bill for the food, it was exactly one thousand eris, no more, no less.

This goddess is quite accurate in her calculations.

The registration process was also classic. The lady at the counter took out the adventurer card and asked Ethan to place his hand on the crystal responsible for detecting attributes.

There wasn't any pretentious scene of the crystal exploding directly. This thing measured basic values, and with such a short amount of time, it was impossible to quantify all of his abilities.

"Um, that's Mr. Ethan...your value--" The counter lady's expression changed drastically after seeing the card, but before she could scream, Ethan held her lips.

"I'm sorry, young lady, I don't mean to cause any commotion, so could you please keep this a secret for me?" Ethan whispered in the ear of the lady at the counter, and his warm breath made her little face blush.

This girl is so realistic. He smiled just now, but her expression didn't change at all. Now she starts blushing when she sees his attributes.

"Okay, okay..." She didn't expect that she, who was as steady as an old dog, would lose her composure. She took a few deep breaths and the blush on her face disappeared for the most part, but her heart was still beating violently.

She was scared. This was the most amazing number she had ever seen, bar none.

Except for the luck value which is above average, all attributes are at the highest level. Even the skill points given in the early stage are quite exaggerated, enough to max out several high-level spells.

This kind of attribute is obviously aimed at destroying the devil, and will definitely make the world famous.

"Well, your attributes allow you to choose any profession. I don't know..."

It was also the first time for her to encounter a numerical value that allowed her to become any profession she wanted. Her brain froze for a moment and she couldn't recommend this.

"Adventurer." After reading the complete list of professions, Ethan answered without hesitation.

"Ah, but, your..." She was dumbfounded and subconsciously wanted to scream out, but she immediately realized that her reaction would definitely be noticed by others, which ran counter to Ethan's needs. At least she still wanted to establish a good relationship with Ethan.

There are so many beautiful women in Axel's Adventurer's Guild, but none of them can get married. It's as if they are under a curse.

She had seen many promising adventurers, but she had never seen a single one with such a statistic as Ethan.

The problem with the Adventurer profession is that you can learn anything, you just need to conceal it in front of your eyes, but it requires consuming more skill points, and there are no profession bonuses like passive skills brought by the profession, nor are there higher-level professions to transfer to, so it is considered the weakest profession, but this profession is just right for his special situation.

The lady at the counter looked regretful, but she still cheered Ethan on.

After all, he is a numerical monster and is still worth investing in.

Then, he inquired about the location of the shops that could provide pawn transactions and walked out of the Adventurer's Guild.

First exchange some money, then find a place to live. As for how to join Aqua's team, that's a science. After all, it seems that there are unlikely to be normal people in their team.

However, what Ethan didn't expect was that he had already been targeted.

"Aqua, that guy is a reincarnated person, right?"

Sato Kazuma narrowed his eyes, stroking his chin with a serious expression.

Just now, he watched Ethan walk out of the guild. Because he was too weak, Ethan couldn't distinguish his gaze from that of others.

"How did you know this? Even I, the goddess of water, couldn't figure it out?" Aqua slammed the table in shock.

“Keep your voice down, you idiot!” Kazuma yelled. “This is my intuition. Do you understand intuition?”

"Look, the counter lady who was so cold to us started giving out... uh, she started putting on a feminine expression as soon as she saw that guy's card. Doesn't that make it clear? Long Aotian, that guy must be the so-called Dragon Aotian from another world! He'd parade around with two or three harems, seducing female thieves, princesses, and even goddesses while chopping off demon kings' heads."

"You've read too many novels!"

"Shut up, that guy must have chosen an invincibility cheat, ahhh, he should have chosen the same cheat at the beginning ahhhh——"

"Pfft, a useless NEET like you would still end up like this even if you chose a powerful cheat. You're still dreaming of competing with others, pfft pfft——"

"Aqua, I want to duel you!"

“Aaaaaahhh, even though I’m the goddess of water and the high priestess, I don’t have the ability to fight!”

Volume 4: Konosuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!: Chapter 4: The Brave Sword's Response

"Young man, which dungeon did you dig out these gold coins from?" The pawnshop owner carefully observed the gold coins Ethan brought from another world with a magnifying glass, while flipping through ancient books that he had taken out from somewhere, just like an old Chinese doctor who was looking for a difficult and complicated disease he had never seen before.

"Uh, I found it on the roadside." Ethan said this with a sincere expression, speaking without blushing or beating his heart. "It must have been unearthed from some lost ancient ruins by mercenaries from a foreign country."

"Isn't your guess a bit too specific?" The boss sighed. "Never mind. It's indeed a high-purity gold coin. I'll buy it from you at a price 10% higher than the market price. How about that?"

Ethan looked up at the sign on the window and reminded, "Boss, this is a pawnshop."

In other words, I will probably have to redeem it later.

The boss snorted and shifted his posture to recline in the large chair. "Let me put it this way. If you don't melt down your gold coins, they're useless. For businessmen like us, they only have collectible value."

He stroked his beard and said nonchalantly, "Just tell me whether you'll sell it or not."

Finally, the deal was done. Ethan probably knew what this guy was thinking. Since these were gold coins that had never been seen before, they were most likely relics of an ancient country that had not yet been discovered. When the ancient country was truly excavated, these gold coins would inevitably appreciate in value. It would be a pure loss for Ethan to redeem them at the original price.

The only thing he didn't expect was that the source of these gold coins was not ancient relics at all, but another world.

Ethan sold a total of ten gold coins and exchanged them for a bunch of local currency.

The money wasn't much, but it was enough to support him for a while, including food and lodging. Next, he would have to find a job.

There is no rush to accept the mission. He needs to familiarize himself with the novice village of Axel first. After all, Kazuma and his group basically live here, so he also needs to find a place to stay long-term.

When he began to travel around the city, he felt a sense of leisure that he had not felt for a long time.

The humans in this world seem to be naturally resistant to bitterness and hatred. Even though they are threatened by the Demon King's Castle and their lives may be in danger if they encounter any monsters outside the city, they still have a relaxed and natural feeling.

Although I don't know whether this is considered a big heart or simply heartless, according to Ethan's understanding of this work, the latter is more likely.

Ethan's personal image is not bad, and his words and deeds are basically those of an ordinary adventurer. No one would deliberately cause trouble for him, which made him become more relaxed.

It was almost evening when he was walking on a street when he suddenly smelled a strange scent. More importantly, his [Sword of the Brave] actually reacted.

Because this was an unprecedented magic, even after he learned it, he didn't know that it had this passive reminder function... The key point was that even the demons and monsters had never used this magic to remind him.

[Magic Detection] is activated.

His perception instantly spread to the entire street, and then he noticed a shadow wrapped in black magic not far away.

When Ethan discovered the other party, he already realized the exaggerated extent of the other party's magic power.

Deep as the sea, heavy as the mountain, Ethan could only use these words to describe the other party's strength.

If this was a magician, she should be able to arm wrestle with Celie.

The shadow seemed to have noticed his spying. Ethan thought the other party would use some ability to cut off his observation, so he could not help but quicken his pace. But after taking a few steps, he found that the other party was actually bowing ninety degrees in his direction, and even seemed to be trembling.

Eh, no, buddy?

Ethan was suddenly confused. What was going on?

After arriving at the place, a small magic prop shop appeared in front of Ethan. From the perspective of magic detection, he clearly saw that behind the counter inside the door, the existence as powerful as a ghost was standing straight, even to the point of being a little stiff.

Eh, no, what’s going on?

Ethan wanted to complain, but when he thought that this was Suqing's world, it suddenly seemed reasonable.

After thinking about it, he finally pushed the door open and walked in. The bell hanging on the door made a clear "clang" sound.

This is a typical magic shop that is not very large, but the counters are filled with various types of magic props. The air is filled with the smell of various potions mixed together, but Ethan also smells the scent of incense among them. The scent of the potions is very cleverly covered and blended, and it smells so comfortable to the body and mind.

It seems that the store owner has put a lot of effort into this aspect.

So he turned his gaze to the beautiful woman behind the counter who was now wearing a stiff smile.

After seeing the shop owner's face, Ethan immediately relaxed. If it was this person, all his previous confusion made sense.

"Hello, welcome." The boss's smile remained unchanged, but his voice was shaking severely.

At the same time, the alarm situation of Ethan's [Sword of the Brave] was getting more and more serious. He knew that as long as he gave the order, it would be activated immediately and smash the woman in front of it into dust, if it could.

"Um..." Ethan just opened his mouth when he saw the woman in front of him let out a sharp explosion, holding her head and squatting behind the counter at the speed of light.

"Ru Ru Ru Ru, if you want to purify me, me, me, me, please please please be gentle. I, I, I, I, I, I, I am afraid of pain, wuwuwu, waaaaaaa——"

No, who wants to purify you?

Ethan had no choice but to immediately enter his notes and turn to the page titled "Sword of the Brave."

After thinking for about a minute, he tried to write the word "white list" on the back.

After a few seconds, the text did not disappear, so it seemed to be successful.

"Can you tell me your name?" Ethan tried to make his voice gentle, but when the boss heard his voice, he was so scared that he fell to the ground, his whole body completely deformed.

For example, it's like the lonely Pochi-chan.

It’s amazing. In the original work, you didn’t react this much when Aqua saw you!

There was no way, Ethan could only stare at her face, and then wrote the name "Wiz" on it by himself. From that moment on, the alarm of [Sword of the Brave] stopped.

After doing all this, Ethan looked at the beauty on the ground again. Her trembling had stopped, and her face was covered in cold sweat. She exuded an air of having survived a disaster.

It is worthy of being a magic that can occupy a slot in my magic column. Its value is too high.

However, he was right. The person in front of him should be the lich Wiz, one of the eight cadres of the Demonic Empire.

Volume 4: Konosuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World: Chapter 5: "An Ordinary Little Lich"

"Is this the potion?"

"Yes, yes, thank you, Mr. Ethan..."

Ethan handed a bottle of potion he said was used to replenish mental strength to Wiz, who was slumped in the chair. Then he sat across from her and said with a twitch of his lips, "To be honest, I've never seen a victim thank the culprit, Ms. Wiz."

"Well, that's because of your skill, not intentional, right?" Wiz sipped the potion, a gentle smile appearing on her face. "You could easily destroy a mere lich like me, yet you're still willing to take care of me. I've never seen that before."

An ordinary little lich is okay, do you dare to say it again while touching your magic value?

After Ethan added Wiz to the whitelist of [Sword of the Brave], its alarm stopped immediately, and the suppressing effect on evil creatures also disappeared. To express his apology, Ethan used magic to clean the stains on her body, dried her clothes that were wet with cold sweat, and used levitation magic to help her up.

Ethan has great respect for characters like Wiz.

After all, he is the only conscience Axel has in the original story, and he seems to have no brains in certain situations.

"After all, attacking someone without any reason is called racial discrimination."

“…Ah, ahaha.” Wiz chuckled. “Well, um, although it’s a little late, why did you come here…?”

So Ethan told him what had just happened.

"I'm so sorry!" After hearing this, Wiz's face turned pale in an instant. She held up her weak body and apologized desperately to Ethan. "I, I didn't mean to cause your ability to react. I, I'll go practice how to hide my magic right away!"

As she was about to stand up, her legs went weak as soon as she stood up, and her body fell forward, falling directly into Ethan's arms.

"Ahhhhhhhh, I'm clearly a lich. I'm so sorry for polluting your embrace!!"

Ethan didn't rush to enjoy the soft and sweet beauty in his arms. Instead, he helped her up slowly after she started to panic.

And cast the magic [Calm] on her.

After casting this spell on an angel and a lich once in one day, Ethan was indeed speechless.
