I separated from the old man in the carriage, And it seems that the entrance check into the city is at random, very strict? While lining up in the queue for inspection, Yuki brought up a rather weird subject.
It is a story of my name I did not want to touch too much.

“Come to think of it, I’m beginning to doubt if whether your name is Japanese, was your original name from canned tuna?”
“Neeyo.” [ can someone help me with this? I can’t find any info on this one.]

It would be ordinary if it had come from a love story. But the origin of my name came from a demon. The name called “Tuna” is also a strange class in this world.
To sum it up, in modern Japan it would be a name on the unusual side. Also, it’s different from Yuki because it was by nature a tuna. Japanese people usually refer to canned tuna when they hear the word tuna. Yuki also says that there are ideas of canned tuna registered trademark from somewhere, great. Those two were my nicknames in my previous life, and my nicknames is often used more than my actual name.

“By the way, what kind of letter is it?”
“It’s a rope.” That which could be mistaken as “The Net.”

It’s a odd name even if you know kanji.

“Yes, that means, is the last name Watanabe? It’s wonderful, they seem able to fight off a monster. Wasn’t Kintaro here for a friend?”

“Whether you know?…… Said, the last name which is originally is Watanabe. Watanabe no Tsuna. There are neither TSU or the time of publicity nor Yorimitsu’s time.”

A general in the Heian Period and Watanabe no Tsuna who meet are a former news item. It is close to being a DQN name. But when I was a kid, I’ve never heard of such history behind my name, and since my first grade of elementary school I was called “Tuna Can” my nickname was “Tuna Can” or “Tuna fish” all the time. Sometimes, I was called “Tuna Salad”. there was a time where a close friend of mine was forcibly given the nickname Salad. Some were called tomatoes with pleasure.

Kintaro, Yuki says, like Watanabe no Tsuna, it’s during the time of when Ban Tanokimi was serving Minamotono Yorimitsu. The famous man whose childhood became a children’s book is great. Of course, there is no such friend.

“It seems that here in the dungeon, it’s easy to learn high grade skills,  the base skill <> may be a skill that can be memorized, isn’t it?

“I’ll remember what to do, But I’ve never seen any kind of Japanese sword in this world.”

I could use it, but even when I was in Japan, I never even touched it. Is it considered at hatchet instead of a sword? [referring to a Japanese butcher knife, can find it HERE, but might not be accurate] In theory, the swords of the Heian era were supposed to be different from the Japanese swords we know.

“I have never seen it, but maybe it’s here, the katana”

Yuki gave a quick look at the city’s gate. It isn’t unlikely. If you have the power to build a huge city like this so far, you can also make Japanese swords.

“But I have never used a sword in previous life, and there wasn’t any kendo classes at my school, and I didn’t take any club activities.”

At best, I bought the wood sword I bought as a souvenir on an school trip. I certainly swung several times and eventually, it became fertilizer at the bottom of the closet.

“What, isn’t it usually swordsmen that become heroes in other worlds?”

now that you say that, I guess there were many parallel-world style main characters that used swords.

“Well, what will we do for weapons? this means that the weapons that I can use is only a knife except for the sword that I picked up.”

“To think that I thought to be an adventurer often,” is what I said inside the carriage, but I had no choice.

“What about you, Hero of a Different World Fantasy-san?”

“I’m good at one-handed swords and short bows. they’re small because I’m not very strong.”

Shit, this is really average. Considering Yuki’s physique and weight, for weapons, this is along the line of  “realistic”. I’m going to say right now that if you suggested a greatsword or a scythe, You have a case of Chuunibyou. [Eighth grader syndrome, find out about it Here.]

“Because I’m at Labyrinth City, I think that the people will be selling a variety of weapons, so I only have a everyday knife.”

I can’t tell you the answer, but in the end, I’m betting everything on this city so I can have a lot of money. For some reason, the middle aged lizard’s [apparently the horseheard turned into a lizardman.] wagon was also free. But although one might say even with a single weapon, one would manage somehow.
I should’ve bought some land from the kingdom so that I could find a home at the labyrinth more easily, but… I hope I can get it cheap.
For dungeon exploration, a knife is nothing… At worst, I could wield logs or planks, but I would like to have a weapon.

“I want to buy something before I register, But I said I would form a party, and I don’t want to have to spend my free time waiting where I could spend that time training.”

“Hmm.. my skills 《Close Combat》 and 《One-handed weapon》, but they are so similar that I can’t tell which is which. If it isn’t a bow, even the worst club would do.”

“Wow, that’s amazing. It’s a skill that’s completely useless for farmers.”

Guess『Skills』are substitutes, as it reads. With this, My technique and physical ability will improve. And also you can get to the point where one could use magic. The there are so many skills that I could say that it may exist every skill, action, and talent. And without it, would make all the difference.

For example, there is a skill called 《Swordsmanship》. This could be anything as long as it is a weapon that is categorized as a sword, when using it, there is a technique correction applied to it. It seems that he knows how to use it, somehow.

Of course, no matter how much effort you give, you can’t master what is not compatible with you.
Moreover, it is difficult to acquire and master the skill 《Two-handed Weapons》 while training to obtain 《Swordsmanship 》. Also, 《Swordsmanship》 and 《One-handed Swordsmanship》 are different skills, there seems to be 《Dagger Arts》 and 《Fencing》. It’s subdivided badly.

And 『gift』 refers to the innate skill that we have. There is no distinction between the performance between the two (between skills and gifts), though the display position in the status column is different. However, there are those who rarely have unique skills, whom of which I call like that of a gift carrier.

In my case, I had the gift 《Close Combat》 and 《One-handed Weapons》 from the time I was born. Basically, it seems those who have been reincarnated are often born with a gift that were the skills of their previous life, but for some reason I am somehow extremely fighting-oriented. Is it because it was a warrior job with MMO-RPG that I was playing? If so, that is really appropriate.

“By the way, there are also the skills 《Survival 》and 《Food Appraisal 》

“Yeah, I thought there would be that sort of thing.”

“Survival” and “food appraisal” are the skills that I acquired afterwards. It can be said that it was created from my desperation to live.
“Archery”, “Hunting”, “Animal Dismantling”, etc. I don’t have the talent for. I wanted it to get animal protein.

“What about you? …… It’s good, as far as I can say.”

This world, basically, it does not teach others the skills, and you can’t see it early unless you have an exclusive skill. Lifestyle and traditions also appear as skills, so there are privacy concerns as well.  However, there is no law against teaching, but if you form a party as an adventurer, you can hear about battle related skills.

“There are also things like “fencing “,” throwing “and” arithmetic “that I’m going to bring to battle along with some others, though I think you have it, too.”

“Well, a little “arithmetic.” In a previous life, he seems to have just mastered arithmetic at primary school level. ”

It seems in the previous life people would need learn math to a certain degree to where one could calculate arithmetic, to the point where almost all reincarnators would be born with the skill “arithmetic” in general. I had heard this story from a former Nepalese guy. Nonetheless, learning arithmetic skills from scratch in this world is pretty tough, and it also seems that even if you learn mathematics that a merchant uses, it will not appear as a skill.
my whole life, there was never really when skill has come into use for me, but it is a idea that makes me think that I was diligent at quite advantageous when if you work for merchants, but I was embarrassed because I can hardly read…… Well, it isn’t just me who’s illiterate, but I’ve been told that this world the literacy rate itself is less than 10% in the first place. Most people can’t even read their status.

“Well then, we think the relatively vanguard skill is progressing fairly well.”

“I think better than two guards, but I want a recovery job, like a mage.”

If the game is a game, there are other thieves (scouts), mages, monks, well-balanced.

“You know, I rarely see mages in this world.”

“I know, I just wanted to say.”

This world is a magic-like fantasy, too…… There are magicians, but is almost a god-like existence. I have’t really seen any, though only through stories.
It is difficult to learn magic even if you do have magical power, and a shown method does not exist. I don’t really know whether there are manga-like magic chants either. It is a world of almost one-sided receivers. A magic person monopolizing such a technique are basically rich, so there is no need to bother taking such a dangerous job like an adventurer. So, I am tempted by a certain web novel, and since I was a baby I’ve trained magical power and I am almost impossible to do such an OP action. [E/N: Tuee=I’m OP, not sure, lol, fuee= shocked, too much for character.. but read the source HERE]

By the way, the church’s priests have the skill to see other’s status, but cannot use recovery magic. Recovery magic seems to be only magician’s home territory.
They do not treat you with the power of God to stir your faith. They are quite serious people. …… I mean, there’s a church, but I’ve never heard of God.

“Well, for a while it’s a unrefined duel between two people”

“It looks like a simple scene.”

Inside, fragments of one’s nature shows. Even if I’m going through things like parallel world reincarnation, the cruel reality will be the way it is. But I can taste a bit of a magical ingredient here that a boy would yearn for.

“By the way, are all these people who are in this line want to adventurers?”

Now that he mentions it, there are a lot of people who seem to be alot adventurers and mercenaries who have weapons in line.
I’ve never met a mage before, but there are some people who put on a magician-ish robe. Or rather, a couple of people like that are right in front of me.

“This is bad, isn’t it? Well, It is Labyrinth city.”

“But usually, there are a little merchants mixed in but it seems like there aren’t any.”

Strange as it is, I’m sure there is at least one person of of these people who can fight.

“You guys haven’t heard?”

The person in the small robe came and talked to us. I could tell by the voice, but it seems to be a guy looking like a girl of this crisis. Oh, no, because there is someone like Yuki in the back, I still don’t know whether it’s girl or not. I can hardly see their face inside the robe, but it looks cute from what I can see right now…… I think.

“What don’t I know?”

“There is a exam here, where the Labyrinth City accepts only standard adventurers”

“Is there a rule like that?”

By the way, while I riding the carriage, I feel like I was told something like that. Do you like trade? Even though it is part of the kingdom, is your region committing national isolation?

“I don’t know for sure, but rumors are circulating among adventurers that it seems like that refugees and immigrants are not accepted.”

“Huh, seeing as my friend whose original job was a source of information, I haven’t heard of that one.”

“Yeah, the information was released only to those who were judged to have a certain level of skill in the Empire’s adventurer guild”

In that case, Yuki’s information network would’ve caught that. Adventurers have a place to build their own world.

“That’s right. Did you come from the Empire? It’s a great journey.”

“Yeah, it was a pretty troublesome route,  I don’t know how many borders I’ve crossed.”

The figure of the murmurer seemed to be extremely tired. Well, The Empire is quite a way away.
Well, I never understood what the Empire was, in the first place. It isn’t like I don’t know the political term empire, it’s just I don’t know well what kind of nation in this world is like. I had no interest, and there was not much of an opportunity to know. You can only hear bits of gossip about it from the tavern, and there are many strange rumors that had started because it too. of I’m not saying anything about the empire…… What an Empire.

“Anyway, the person here are in the same trade as you, basic peers and do you got that…?” [Editor: I don’t really understand this… here:「とにかく、ここにいる人は基本同業者。あなた達もそうでしょ? ……そうなの?」]

When I saw this guy’s figure, made me lose confidence in myself. I don’t have anything that looks like a weapon, and clothes in the cloak are tattered at the level that there it wouldn’t be strange if it were in the slums.

“……Uh, that’s the reason why immigrants aren’t accepted.

No, it’s not a problem for aspiring adventurers.”

“So…… Do your best.”

That’s what it means to do your best to be a adventurer.
I need to do my best and get into the city.
