Chapter 381


(381) Pride of the day labourers



Translator: Tseirp


Instead, he took a book out from a box .


Pictures of two men (who were very attractive) were drawn on the book .


“Sheesh, I thought it was weird . You have been getting in my way lately but you came in search of this stupid book— So you knew that I was the culprit from the start . ”


“Of course . Or rather, those talismans – – used by Magic Journalist proved my conviction . ”


Haru looked at me with eyes that shone of admiration .


No, Haru . You should know, right?


I entered this store only because I wanted to find Milky’s book .


When I saw the Magic Journalist’s talismans, I naively thought that perhaps this dry cleaner’s job was actually Magic Journalist?


When I tried checking to know if he was a Magic Journalist,


【Demonist: LV 52】


That was when it connected . Wasn’t this the culprit? If he was the culprit, he would have people’s personal belongings entrusted to him as laundry even without having to steal them .


It would uncool and a little too late to say now that I chanced upon him .


“But you made a huge mistake . If you knew that I was the culprit, why did you pass this to me?”


The dry cleaner gripped my handkerchief and Haru’s scarf in his right hand .


Then, he plunged his left hand into his item bag .


And took out 3 gems with his left hand .


One of them was releasing a faint light .


I immediately used Gem Appraisal .




Job Stealing Gem


By saying the target’s name, you can steal the target’s job and make it your own .


The skills of the stolen job can be used as your own .


The gem will break when the person who has been stolen from dies .


Used target: Monster-User


Job stealing gem!?


Furthermore, wasn’t Monster-User the job of one of the up-and-coming adventurers who attacked us? (TLN: This job, マ物使い, is different from Elize’s job)


What was he planning to do by taking that out?


“There’s a job called Monster-User capable of sealing monsters in between books and summoning them when needed . ”


Sealing monsters within books?


There were cases of snakes flying out from a Monster-User’s chest pocket but that was probably achieved by concealing a notebook-sized book in their clothes .


“With that, something like this is possible – -“


At that instant, four golden dolls appeared from inside the book – – golems .


“These golems can only serve to delay me . ”


I said as I kicked the golems away .


“Delaying you is more than enough!”


The man said as he raised my handkerchief and Haru’s scarf .


“Invoke Curse! Frenzy Curse . ”


The two other Job Stealing Gems shattered, forming black light that floated upwards and transformed into shadows shaped like me and Haru before disappearing .


Casting two curses at the same time meant that there was no cool down time for the Invoke Curse skill?


The Substitution Doll that Haru and I had made a sound and burst .


It looked like the curse was applied .


“Substitution Dolls?”


The Demonist showed an irritated expression


“Unfortunately . We prepared Substitution Dolls knowing that we are entering a curse practitioner’s home . ”


The man headed to the rear of the room .


Was he trying to flee?


I said as I cut off the right arm of the final golem .


The path would be clear with just a little more .


The man fled to a room filled with mannequins but there was no rear exit .


He was a trapped rat .


There, another two golems were waiting for me .


“Guh, it’s the final one but there’s no other way . Invoke Curse, Frenzy Curse . ”


Another shadow appeared and formed Haru’s shape before disappearing .


“Dispel . ”


I parried the incoming golem attack with my bare hands and immediately treated Haru with Dispel .


“That was the last? That was stupid, you knew that I can treat it . ”


I commented and cut down the final golem .


“You are the clueless one . Unlike Curse arts, spells have cool down time . And Job Stealing Gems are not the only things capable of invoking curses!”


The man smiled fearlessly .


“Frenzy Curse – – Goho . ”


The blood that the Demonist spat out shone black and turned into my shape .


Shit – –


The man’s job became 【Demonist: LV 1】 .


He sacrificed his level to invoke the curse but still appeared to suffer from the effects of the curse . Haru raised her sword and rushed at the man – – but a mannequin suddenly attacked her .


Damn, that mannequin was a golem too?


“The World’s Salvation – -“


The man said .


The curse would activate – – I would turn into a Berserker .


It was the end .


“ … So?”


I gloated .


It was not my end; it was his end .


“What? How …”


The man’s expression twisted as I smiled wryly .


“Maybe this is what they call the pride of a day laborer?”


I was anxious, seriously anxious .


I was sure that the frenzy curse would activate .


But .


【When under the Job Seeking skill effect, the first job can’t be changed . 】


Such a message was displayed .


That was surprisingly dangerous .


“Day laborer … I don’t understand …”


The Demonist muttered as he collapsed .


【Ichinojo leveled up . 】


【Librarian skill: Autobiography acquired . 】


It looked like the experience points for the golems came in .


I couldn’t tell the man’s job or level when I tried Job Appraisal .


He was probably dead .


“Master, the man’s appearance!?”


Haru suddenly exclaimed .


The Demonist’s face was transforming .


Horns grew on his head and his skin turned brown .


Don’t tell me there’s a second round? As I prepared myself but it appeared to not be a transformation but instead his transformation was undone upon death .


When I investigated the Demonist’s arm, I found a unique bangle .


I checked it with Accessory Appraisal .


Transformation Bangle


A bangle capable of allowing the user to transform to whatever appearance they wish .


It is not possible to change body size .


That was an amazing item . I stored it for the time being .


After that, I applied dispel on myself to remove the curse and looked around the shop . At the back of the shop, I found a human corpse with the same face as the Demonist .


It seemed that the real dry cleaner was already murdered and he was taking on his identity .


There weren’t any other notable clues so I called the guards .


“Would this resolve everything?”


I muttered to myself .
