World's Fastest Level up!

"There is a good solution. Let's try it as an experiment of Stock ability."

Someone who has a good intuition surely has a good idea of what I'm trying to do as I said that to Hana. Yes, I'm thinking of having Hana use [Concealment] by copying it from me.

[Concealment] is a skill with rewriting one status as its only ability. For that reason, the max skill level of [Concealment] is level 1, and it doesn't use any MP either which is very suitable for our current situation. Hence, If it's this skill, Hana should be able to copy it using [Stock].

Hana, who had heard about my idea then immediately put it into practice.

"Understood, I'll try it–Stock!"

After activating the skill while touching my hand, Hana opened her eyes amazed.

"It's a success! It said 『Concealment Lv1 has been copied』, Onii-chan!"

"Okay, that's good. Next you just need to hide Stock from your skill column. It's like this…."

After that, I taught Hana how to use [Concealment] and then she was able to conceal [Stock]successfully.

Well, now the remaining problem is…

"About what to do with Body Reinforcement, Magic Power Manipulation and Magic Power Increase. Although it is common to acquire three skills upon the acquisition of status, the problem is the skill level… 3,3,5 which is quite high."

"So it's like that. Then, would it be fine if I made all of them level 1?"

"If that's the case then it surely belongs to the normal category."

"Then, let's do that!"

Immediately after deciding that, Hana rewrote all her remaining skills to Lv1. With this, our preparation was completed.

"Yosh, it's time to go back to where everyone is. Do be careful not to tell anyone that you've used concealment and also the fact I have that skill, okay?"

"Roger that…Aree? Why does Onii-chan have this kind of skill? Normally, people won't take this skill if they don't have something to hide, right?"contemporary romance

"… I'll slowly talk about this later after a lot of things have calmed down."

"Hmmm, then, it's fine…"

Hana was more easily convinced than how I thought she would be. And I stroked my chest, relieved the moment she responded like that.

"_–!"

Suddenly, I felt an indescribable discomfort and looked around in a hurry. However, I couldn’t find anything in our surroundings.

"What's happened all of a sudden, Onii-chan?"

"… No, nothing."

It seems it was just my imagination. I came to that conclusion and decided not to worry about it anymore.

After that, Hana and I headed back to the gathering place where everyone was.

Looks like most of the students had already finished subjugating the monsters while Hana and I were having a conversation after she acquired her status screen. Some students are overjoyed, and some are deeply saddened by their results.

When Hana showed her concealed status to Katagiri, he lightly examined it in a few seconds before congratulating her for successfully acquiring the status. Although I wasn't worried in the first place, it seems the report was completed easily.

Then after everyone finished defeating monsters, we went out of the dungeon. And then, Katagiri said to everyone.

"Those who have acquired the status this time will have to participate in the in-dungeon exercise that will be held in a few weeks. In there, we're going to learn about how to fight against the monsters that actually have fighting prowess unlike the slime and also what adventurers need to be careful of inside the dungeon. Until you finish that exercise, everyone's adventurer's qualification will be a provisional one. Although you will be allowed to enter the dungeon if it's with someone who has been an adventurer for more than a year, entering alone is strictly prohibited. So, please be careful about that. And last, thanks for your hard work today."

With this, today's training has finished. Thus, Hana and I leave the place.

"Good work, Hana. And once again, congratulations on acquiring the status."

"Ehehe, thank you. Oh, then, give me something as a reward!"

"Nn? Alright. Then let's stop by the center of the city. And since we're going there, let's have dinner too."

"E-eh? Half of it was actually meant to be a joke. Or rather, aren't you spending a lot of money lately, Onii-chan? Will it be fine?"

"Don't worry, lately I've made a lot of money. To the extent I can even afford to buy anything you want."

"…. I see. Then, I'll accept your kind offer!"

"Ou. Ah, and another thing. It seems Hana would have to dive into the dungeon again for another practical exercise but from what Katagiri-san said, you can enter the dungeon as long as someone accompanied you, right? And there is also a limit to what you can learn in a group. That's why if you're fine with it, I'll go with you."

"Really? Then, please… That's right!"

Then, as if came up with something, Hana took her smartphone and opened the contact app. And because I don't want to be scolded for trying to invade a maiden’s privacy again, I lightly looked away from her.

Anyway, the fact that today's result was good for Hana was more important than anything else. While thinking about that, Hana and I keep walking straight ahead. That's why, at this moment, I couldn't notice. That there was a person who was staring at us from a distance.
