Chapter 2: The Power of the Covenant Spirit
"Roland-kun, right? Your Japanese is so good...... Have you lived here for a long time? ”
"Yes."
"It's amazing, I came to Dongmu City to live independently at such a young age, and I have had the experience of working part-time before, so young people should want to go to a big city, don't you feel unaccustomed to a small place like Dongmu City?"
"It's okay," Roland paused, as if feeling something was wrong, and added, "The place where I used to live was a small town called Duwang Town, and compared to him, Fuyuki City is already very powerful. ”
This is a simple interview, the manager of the convenience store is talking casually with Roland, while observing the other party, neat clothes, healthy complexion, sitting posture is standardized and straight, even if he is very young, he can see the young man opposite the excellent quality that only a good tutor can have.
He can't be wrong, he's a good boy.
"So, last question, can I go to work today?"
Roland put on a long apron and began to follow the store manager to familiarize himself with his working environment.
Leaving aside the Holy Grail War, if you want to live in this world, the corresponding identity is quite necessary.
Contrary to what most people think, there aren't as many cases of identity in this country as they use in normal life, so as long as the source of funding can be solved, at Roland's current level, it is like a drop of water into the sea.
For this, he needs a job.
Although the bursting of the current bubble economy will continue for a long time, the so-called lost 20 years have only just begun, with a large number of layoffs and a recession in the industry, which is really not a good time to find a job.
However, perhaps because the size of Fuyuki City is not large, and the construction plan of the new capital, which has played a role in revitalizing the economy, it is relatively peaceful, and the wages are not too high.
With his familiarity with the Japanese language and the performance of various details, as Roland predicted, the kind store manager did not mind that he did not have identification, but regarded him as a young man who had immigrated to a small town in the past and then came out on his own because of his hardships.
"That's right, that's how the goods are sorted and stored...... It's amazing, it's rare to see a young person like you who works hard and has strong abilities now. ”
Looking at the store manager's admiring look, Roland nodded indifferently, because, for him now, this is a matter of course.
There were still some dissatisfactions, but judging by the results, he drew a good card.
Roland glanced at the Key of All Souls in his hand, and the information on it automatically came to mind.
- Covenant Spirit [Kira Yoshikage] (contracted)
He used to be a nightmare hovering over the town of Too, but after being torn apart by an alley from which there is no turning back, the end of not even being allowed to be reincarnated has twisted his remnants into an obsessive power. As long as he can eliminate his obsession, no matter who does it, this power will be attributed to that person forever.
Signs: Your nails will grow at an abnormal rate, and the more stress you are under, the faster they will grow.
Effects: You have acquired the famous hand fetish of Kira Yoshikage's mortal life, and at the same time, you will feel a great desire for a peaceful and regular life, and any change in this stable environment, for better or for worse, will make you feel extremely restless and uneasy. During the deed period, you will become self-disciplined.
Empowering Abilities:
The secret of the third place: You get a bonus in terms of knowledge and work ability that is equivalent to the level of Kira Yoshikage's life, and you know how to keep the right distance from the people around you, and hide yourself perfectly without being underestimated.
Killer Queen: You gain a stand-in: Killer Queen.
Luck: You have a lot of luck that is far superior to others, and you can always find an opportunity to turn things around when you encounter them.
Digestion requirements: Maintain peace of mind as a living criterion for more than a month in the area where the contract has been completed.
In Roland's eyes, the spirit of the covenant that belonged to Kira Yoshikage exuded a pale yellow light, and belonged to the level of the second order.
According to the division given by the Key of All Souls, the division of the five levels of white, yellow, blue, purple, and red spirit levels is not based entirely on the strength of ability.
The relationship between the Covenant Spirit and the Contractor is not equal, after all, they are the products of the Covenant Spirit made by the Key of All Spirits, except for a few special ones, most of them are in the gap between life and death, and they do not even have the sad existence of self-will.
The contract is a means needed to better use the spirit of the contract, although the more powerful the spirit will become a higher color in Roland's eyes, but it is not absolute.
As the owner of the Key of All Spirits, depending on the cost required, the color of the Pact Spirit may also change when the Pact Spirit is actually obtained, and the severity of the price determines the applicability of the Pact Spirit in Roland's eyes.
According to the information given by the Key of All Souls, the danger level corresponding to different colors is roughly divided into these types.
White, almost harmless, is easy to use and fulfill requirements to digest the Covenant, but its abilities are often limited.
Yellow, you need to pay a certain price, but it is still not out of the realm of reality, and the upper and lower limits of ability are very high.
Blue, for the contractor may have specific requirements, such as character, will, ability is often excellent, but the digestive conditions are often very harsh.
Purple, a special pact spirit, the cost is undecidable, it may be extremely high or very low, and the help it brings to the contractor is also the most special.
Red, extremely dangerous, beyond the limits of the contractor, the ability given is often the highest level of power of the original body of the Covenant Spirit, and the price to be paid will make the contractor almost irreversible distorted.
The abilities and costs brought by the Covenant Spirit of Kira Yoshikage, who is located in the second order, are quite reasonable, and the impact on himself is still in a reasonable range, and the only thing that makes Roland think about it is only that subtle hand fetish.
But not to mention that, this Covenant Spirit can be regarded as the solution to Roland's urgent need, the secret of the third place seems to be of little significance, but it perfectly solves the dilemma he is facing at the moment, and as a stand-in for the main combat power, it is a high-quality choice in this kind of urban life.
Although it is not as good as such as the platinum star, the world's already rule-level exceptional stand-ins, but among the many stand-ins with strange abilities, Kira Yoshikage's stand-ins are also the best ones.
And the other party's digestion conditions are also very simple, which is very good for Roland, who has just started.
After sending the store manager away, Roland stood in front of the counter, admiring his hands boredly.
The nails are neatly manicured, the knuckles are well-defined and perfectly proportioned, slender and fair.
"Moreover, this experience is not bad, I didn't expect that I would have such a beautiful part in the ordinary, what a perfect pair of hands......" The corners of Roland's mouth were hooked, and he glanced at the pink figure next to him with the corner of his eye, the other party's face was expressionless, his toes were off the ground, and the belt with the skull logo was tied around his waist, which made the streamlined muscles on his body not look bloated, but with the beauty of strength.
The superposition of various qualities made him stand in a rather bewitching posture without any abnormal feeling, after hearing Roland's words, the figure did not reply, just turned his head with cat ears open, and calmly looked at Roland with those intimidating cold vertical pupils, like a big pink cat.
"You really think so, right, Killer Queen?"
