CH 96

“Aoi-chan is really cute~. I didn’t mean it in that way, so please be at ease. How nice youth is.”

“Please don’t tease me.”

“I am not joking, you know. It is true that I am interested in Rin-kun. It is the first time I’ve seen a quintuple skill-holder, and never have I heard of a level 10 E-ranker defeating two lizardmen, either. There is no doubt that he is special, but there still seems to be some secret~.”

“It is true that Rin-kun is special, so let’s leave it at that and please excuse us.”

“We could have chatted for a little longer. But well, both of you, see you later~.”

Aoi forcibly ended the conversation, and we departed from that place at last.

Tounagi-san…… she was kind of an odd person.

She referred to herself as `this big sister,` even though she was small and didn’t even look that far apart in age.

“Rin-kun, thanks for your hard work.”

“The Lizardmen were strong. It would have been very dangerous if I were to deal with them alone. As expected, D-ranks are not simple.”

“No, just as Tounagi-san has said, the special one is you, Rin-kun, since you can face D-ranks. It is normally impossible, after all.”

Certainly, it was not normal for me, who just became E-rank, to face D-rank monsters. But, There was something that had been on my mind since the last raid.

“Nevertheless, Aoi sure is very knowledgeable about survivors. You even know about Tounagi-san, right?”

“Rin-kun just knows too little. Tounagi-san is also famous around this area, you know.”

“I suppose Tounagi-san is not a D-ranker, is it?”

“Yes, she is a B-ranker.”

“The same as Kamiki-san……!”

“Thunder Emperor is said to be close to A-rank, so it might not be an appropriate comparison. But, Wind Princess is also a high-ranking survivor in this area.”

“Wind Princess, it is an amazing alias.”

“She is a wind user, after all. She should be able to use multiple skills too.”

“I see.”

I wonder if there are many multiple skill-holders among high rankers? Besides, considering the power of that skill, I am convinced that it is B-rank.

“More importantly, Rin-kun, you saw the Wind Princess’s skill, didn’t you?”

“Ahh, I saw it. It is called [Wind Wheel], right?”

“Then, I suppose Rin-kun must be able to use that skill too.”

“Maybe, though I can’t be sure until I actually try using it.”

Tounagi-san’s skill, [Wind Wheel], was definitely a very powerful skill just by looking at the fact that it could end the lizardmen that we had to struggle against in one shot. If I can use it, I guess I will be replacing the same type of skill, [Wind Cutter].

It would be dangerous to use the skill while riding a bicycle. So, I waited until we got home and-

“I will try using it, [Wind Wheel].”

Activated the skill by aiming skywards.

I couldn’t see it since it was a wind-type skill. But, I could feel that it had activated towards the sky.

“Rin-kun, as I thought, you succeeded in imitating it. Not just Thunder Emperor’s skill but also Wind Princess’s. Maybe, Rin-kun has no limit. Amazing.”

It seemed that I had succeeded in imitating [Wind Wheel], which Tounagi-san used in the earlier battle. But Aoi praised me more than necessary, so I felt even happier about it more so than the fact that I had acquired a new skill.
