Chapter Title: I got the 【Analytical Eye】 skill

「Now, where is it……?」

After I finished talking with Yomi, I ate the breakfast that Serena had made for me.

As with last night’s banquet, Serena was good at cooking and the freshly baked bread mixed with herbs was very delicious.

That’s why I wanted to give them something in return for letting me stay here and having dinner with me.

I asked Yomi if there was anything I could do to help him, and he asked me to gather some herbs to cure his illness.

「So this is the sample……」

What I received from Yomi was a blue herb called 【Blue mary】.

When I left the village, I wandered through the forest by myself.

「Whoa, I found something like this!」

I walked around a bit and saw a blue mary growing there.

I reached out to pick it up, but stopped halfway.

Serena told me to be careful because some of the plants look very similar to the original.

It seems that there is a grass that has a similar color and shape to blue mary, and it’s name is Pachy mary. It’s not poisonous, but if you eat it, it’s taste is bitter and has no medicinal effect, so Yomi-san doesn’t need it.

「They certainly look alike, but how can I tell them apart?」

Serena, who picks herbs every day, might be able to tell, but to my eyes they look exactly the same.

「If I pick the wrong one here and leave, I’ll have to do it twice…..」

I’m just a little worried about it….

「Oh yeah! There’s this way!」

I store everything in my inventory and look at it.

・Blue mary×35

・Pachy mary×117

「They are mostly Pachy mary……」

I used the method of storing them in my inventory and displaying the item name.

I thought that this way I could group them by type, but it was more than I expected.

「Let’s just throw away the pachy mary for now.」

I don’t mind keeping them because they don’t get mixed up, but there’s a limit to how many things I can stock in my inventory. I took out the pachymary and piled it up on the ground.

「Now, he hasn’t told me how much he wants, but I’m sure I’ve gathered enough……」

I don’t want to move too far into the forest and get lost. When I was wondering if I should go back…..

——Squeak, squeak, squeak――

「What is this monster?」

It’s about the size of a small beast, but it has one huge eye and a gaping mouth.

It was looking at me while leaking out some kind of voice, but it didn’t seem to be attacking me.

I took out my sword, feeling a little creeped out.

——gichi――

「Ah! What?」

Immediately, my defensive instincts kicked in. In this instant, he had set something in motion.

——gichi?——

The monster tilted it’s head. What in the world was he planning to do?

「……Maybe.」

I suddenly have an idea, and look in my inventory.

・Analizing eye×1(can see the status of the target)

「I see. So that’s what’s been bothering you know.」

It seems that this guy used a skill, but it didn’t have any effect on me because I stocked it up as quickly as I could. And now he was wondering what happened.

「Let’s just see what this guy is.」

I immediately tried to use 【Analytical Eye】. Then……

Race: Monster

Individual name: Blood Eye

Level: 522

Constitution: 1020

Magic: 834

Strength: 937

Agility: 1200

Defense: 900

Skill:Analytical Eye

Remarks: It uses its analytical eye to detect the status of its prey before attacking. It often works together with Bloody Ogre and Dark Wolf.

「I see, so that’s the kind of monster it is.」

While we were facing each other like this, I was accumulating more and more information on him through the analytical eyes. It seems that he’s getting frustrated because he can’t see my status.

「And yet his level is unexpectedly high……」

When I was in town, there were times when the level of knights and the like were announced.

However, even a knight who is said to be skilled has a level of 197. Compared to that, being a level 522 means you are a monster… and this guy is one in both the literal and figurative manner of speech.

「Well, I can say the same about myself now…….」

It’s no wonder his stats were so high, since he even defeated the Bloody Ogre after the Evil God.

「I’ve had a hunch that the enemies around here might be terribly strong.」

Even for Phil, he could probably finish it, but with the level difference, it may have been possible that the monster would overwhelm him.

「Well, what should I do…」

I’ve already stocked up enough information through the analytical eyes. I want to get this over with before he could call in more of their people.

I hold up the divine sword Borumunk and……. 1

「No hard feelings.」

——gichi……gic……?——

一I jumped on my feet, and stabbed him in the eyeball.

「I leveled up 10 times.」

I open my status to see the skills I just acquired.

・Analyctical eye ×666 2

「With this, I can see the charm status of the elves.」

What I was worried about was whether or not I would be suspected of rapidly increasing my charm.

We haven’t talked about anything related to the evil god, and it’s hard to explain the status-enhancing fruits.

So I want to increase my charm status in a way to make it look as natural as possible and get the spirit vision.

「In the meantime, let’s check Serena’s charm.」

I’ve heard that Serena can’t use spirits as much as Phil, and she’s the easiest to observe. I’ll raise the charm to a value close to Serena’s and then we’ll see what happens.

That’s what I thought as I collected the Blood Eye drop and headed back to the village.

★★★

「Hey, Onii-chan.」

Hugging her knees, Serena spoke to Phil.

「What’s wrong. Serena?」

Phil, who had been swinging his sword, turned around and wiped the sweat off his face.

「Elt is weird, right?」

Phil’s eyebrows twitched at the question.

「Well, I’ve never seen a race of people like that.」

Phil nodded at the way he had behaved the other day.

「Elt doesn’t know what this place is like, does he? He usually goes out to pick up herbs.」

「The lost forest is called the end of the world. The monsters that appear are all vicious and high level. It’s said that if you enter the forest, you’ll never make it out alive.」

「He defeated the Bloody Ogre, which even high level people like us can’t defeat, and most importantly…… he’s kind.」

「Nn. What did you say?」

Phil asked back because he didn’t hear well, but Serena hurriedly waved her hand and said…

「No, it’s nothing!」

His expression softened as he replied. Then he lets out a sigh.

「I hope he comes back soon.」

Serena stared at the entrance to the village.
