Otome Game Mob Villain - Chapter 132

“Ellen, Alex, how are you?　Have you gotten used to this place?”

“Yes, thanks , we’re doing a lot of the things we like to do.”

“You’re right, sister. Thank you so much for providing us with such a good workshop.”

Today, I and Deanna are at a workshop in the town that was prepared for Ellen and Alex on short notice.

The reason I brought 2 of them to the Bardia territory was to have them create various things for me, including weapons.

The reason for my visit today is that I received a call from the two saying that they had completed a prototype of what I had asked them to make.

I smiled at their words.

“I’m glad you like the workshop,May I see the prototypes now?”

May I see the prototypes you asked for?

“Yes, sure.”

Ellen and Alex nodded at my words and went into the back of the workshop.

Deanna, who was watching the scene next to me, asked me with a curious look on her face.

“Rid-sama, if you don’t mind, may I ask what you two asked for?””

“Yeah?　The “Attribute Appraiser”?　If a person who can handle magic power even a little can use it, it is an appraiser that can check one’s attribute qualities, shall I say?”

Deanna looked doubtful when she heard that what I had asked for was “an appraiser that can check one’s attributes and qualities.

“What ……?　You asked for something unusual, didn’t you? The only people who can handle magic power are the knights, some adventurers, and the nobility. And those who can handle magic know most of their own attributes and qualities. I don’t think it would make much sense to be able to know what attributes and qualities they have. ……”

‘I agree. It may not make sense for those who can already handle it. But if we can figure out what attribute qualities an individual has, I think we can make a big leap forward as an organization, don’t we ?””

She is right, it would certainly be useless for those who can already handle it.

Still, I think it would be effective in the sense of providing confirmation.

But for what I’m trying to do, I definitely need something that can do an “attribute predisposition appraisal”.

My reply sounded outlandish to Deanna, and she looked puzzled.

At that moment, Ellen and Alex carefully brought a square box from the back of the workshop with what looked like a clear crystal ball on top of it.

Not because it was heavy, but more like they brought it together so as not to break it.

When we set it down in front of us, Ellen coughed and puffed her chest and began to explain in a loud voice,

As Rid-sama told , this is the first prototype of the “Attribute Attribute Attribute Appraiser” that was created by applying the color change reaction of magical steel, which is also generated by a magic sword. By looking at the color, you can know the attributes of the person who placed hand on the crystal ball.

“I think that’s a good name for it, don’t you?””

With Ellen confidently explaining it, Alex pointed it out to her with a slightly pained look in his eyes as if he was looking at something painful.

I don’t think it’s a bad name because it’s easy to understand.

I asked Ellen with this thought in mind.

‘Ellen, thanks for the explanation. I’ll get right to it, but there are a total of 10 attribute if you include the non-attribute one, but does this seem to tell us what the non-attributes are?”

‘Master Rid is right. There is just one problem. ……”

Hearing my words, she nodded and looked troubled.

What is it?　When I looked at her suspiciously, she continued her explanation.

“We were able to confirm the color change reaction,…… but as expected, if it was just us, we couldn’t even tell which attribute would be what color,…… so I thought we’d have to try this one out on various people. ……”

‘I see. ……”

That would certainly be the case.

But the fact that they confirmed it means that they know a little bit about magic too.

I looked around.

It was just me, Deanna, Ellen, and Alex.

I let my thoughts wander for a moment, and then I said to the others

“Ellen, Alex, would you please make sure that no one but us enter this place from now on?”

“What?　I understand. Alex, lock up the store and I’ll go lock up the workshop.”

“All right, sis.”

They hurriedly went to lock the door.

Deanna, who had been watching them, looked at me curiously and spoke softly to me

 “……Riid-sama, what are you going to do this time?　I hope you won’t do anything that will cause too much commotion.”

“Yes, it’s all right. I’ll be fine. It’s nothing special.”

‘I hope so. ……”

For some reason, she looked very worried when she heard my words.

Why?　

Just then, Ellen and Alex both returned after closing the door.

‘Excuse me, Maste Rid. Sorry to keep you waiting. But what are you going to do?”

“Thank you, Ellen and Alex. It’s not difficult. I’m just going to use the ‘you who examines’. But please don’t tell anyone about the qualities you saw here, okay?”

Everyone in the room looked relieved and satisfied at my words, and Ellen looked at me and smiled.

“Thank goodness …… I was worried that you were thinking of something out of the ordinary and unconventional again ……. But I understand, the will definitely keep the attributes of Rid’s a secret.’

“..What do you all think I am?　I’m just a normal kid.”

I think everyone looked indescribable when they heard my response to Ellen’s words.

Why?　

And as I let the magic flow through the crystal, the inside of it turned red in a flash.

Unintentionally, I let out a surprised voice.

“Oh⁉ This is more interesting than I thought. Is this “fire”?”

“Perhaps it is. As expected of Rid-sama. We have heard that the lord of Bardia has the attribute of fire for many generations”.

The red color in the crystal is burning up like a fire.

It is not more than 10 seconds after the change occurred.　

The red color changed, and now it turned light blue, with rippling patterns.

“Oh?　Is it the attribute of “water” this time?”

“It seems so. But it’s like Rid to have conflicting attributes.”

Ellen’s words made Alex and Deanna giggle.

Then the color started to change again.

This time it turned light green and swirled around like a tornado.

‘This looks like wind, doesn’t it?”

.”….. seems to be. I have never seen this before. I’ll make a note of it”.

Ellen’s face seemed to be tense, or was it my imagination?　

As I was thinking that, another change appeared.

This time it was yellow and gushed out like lightning.

‘This is ‘lightning’ no matter how you look at it, right?’

‘……Yes. I think you are right. …… Why is that?　I have a very bad feeling that something terrible is about to happen. …… Is it my imagination?”

‘Hm?　I’m just checking for change, so I don’t think anything will happen?”

Ellen was about to say in response to my reply, “No, I don’t mean …… that way,” when another change occurred.

This time the deep blue color turned into an ice-like mass.

Then I felt the faces of the people who were looking at the crystal, except mine, turn blue.

‘It changed again. It looks like an attribute of ice.”

“Ugh. …… record it. ……”

The other faces were also pale.

Alex is also pulling a face.

I think Deanna is feeling the blood draining from her face.

Why?

After that, the ” continued to change colors.

The earth was brown, the trees were a deep green, the light was white, and the darkness was black.

The black of darkness seemed to be the last, and the color in the crystal returned to fire red.

“….. Oh?　Is that all?　Let’s give it a few more rounds, and if the order in which the colors appear doesn’t change once, maybe we can figure out the order of the color change. Let’s try one more time, shall we?　…… Huh?　You all look pale.　Are you okay?”

After I confirm the color change, I call out to everyone present, but there is no response.

When I looked up, all three of them were standing there stunned, seemingly shocked by my attribute qualities.

I guessed what everyone was thinking and said, “Ah, .

I’ guess it means that there are people in the world who have all the attributes. So, I told you at the beginning, right?　Absolutely no one knows about it?

, “…… Rid-sama, does your father, Rainer-sama, know about this?”

Deanna, who seemed to have regained consciousness at my words, turned pale and asked me a question.

“What?　I don’t think he knows.　I’ve never told anyone. So the only people who know about my attributes are myself, Deanna, Ellen, and Alex. It’s a secret, okay?”

I smiled at the three of them with a carefree smile.

Deanna looked at me and my smile, then let out a deep, deep sigh.

‘Haaaaah …… Rid-sama, common sense doesn’t work with you. No, I realized once again that you are the one who cannot be measured by common sense…….”

“It’s true,…… I never thought that people with all attributes do exist,…….”

“I, too,……, thank you for the opportunity to meet you, Rid. ……”

“……?”

I was stunned and shocked that the three of them were more shocked than I thought at the fact that I had all the attributes

After that, I told them again that they could not talk about my attribute qualities.

I was particularly impressed by Deanna’s strong words to Ellen and Alex.

They both immediately responded to Deanna with an upright and unwavering “Of course ,” and I muttered to myself “You’re overreacting ……” in my mind.

I poured magic power into the ” Check ” several times after that, but the order of the color change did not change.

The reason is unknown, but there seems to be some kind of law.

“I was surprised to hear that the order of color change was fixed. But thanks to Master Rid, I now know the colors of all the attributes. Thank you “.

No, , , I was the one who requested the creation of . I’m glad to be of service. I would like you to mass-produce a few of these, is that possible?

Ellen meditated and looked down at my words, then looked at me and said,

“I can do it. However, we are short of the ‘magical steel’ that will be the material, so can I ask Chris-to place an order for it?”

‘. I’m going to see Chris next time, so I’ll let her know then. Also, I have one more favor to ask you: …….”

“…?　What is it?”

I told Ellen and Alex what I was planning and asked for their help.

Ellen and Alex’s eyes blazed when they heard what I had to say.

‘If we can make it happen, we can do many more things we want to try, too.”

“I’m sure we’ll make it happen. I’ll come back to you for advice and help’.

‘We’ ll be waiting for you.”

They seemed excited about my plan and happily agreed to it.

With this, most of the groundwork had been laid.

I told Chris about my plan and after making some revisions, I would probably have no problem discussing it with my father.

I was so happy that the preparations for the plan were going so well that I couldn’t help but smile.

Seeing me like this, Deanna sighed deeply again.
