I Became the Handyman That the Heroines Are Obsessed With

Episode 22 – Mina Endras (4)

“This is a scam… ….”

After hearing the words come out of the blonde girl’s mouth, I could only nod her head.

Yes, when I first saw my abilities, the word fraud almost came out without me knowing?

What’s broken? Your tools are rusty? The food doesn’t taste good?

Just hit it with a hammer three times and it’ll snap! And it is fixed!

If I had used advertising text like this when I was working at a company, many people would have reported it as fraud or false advertising and I would have been fined.

Honestly, it doesn’t make sense. Anything can be fixed if you hit it with a hammer three times.

Is this really an ability given directly by the goddess?

“It’s a fraud. I feel sorry for you if you say that. Still, it is an ability given directly by the Goddess.”

“I’ve never heard of such an ability, nor have I seen it in a book!”

The blonde female student heard me and raised her voice.

“If there was such an ability, the Goddess would have given it to someone a long time ago! But even in the books that cover the past thousands of years of history, there is not a single line written about anyone with abilities like yours!”

“Is that so?”

Hoo. So, the ability I have is extremely rare.

I see that not even a single thing has appeared in the history of over thousands of years.

But was the history of this world so long that it lasted thousands of years? I’m not sure about that.

I still feel like there’s a lot I don’t know about this world.

Later, when I have time, I’ll have to go to a library or something and borrow or read some books about history.

I’m the owner of the store, but what will the customers do if I don’t open the door?

The purpose of coming to Arcanium in the first place was to meet Mina.

But you achieved the goal you wanted to achieve first, right?

And since I still had a lot of money left, I wouldn’t have to open a store.

Rather than that, it is time to get rid of this uninvited guest who has invaded my store.

“Yes! “If you’re not lying, the world will be shocked and turned upside down!”

“Is that such a big deal?”

I have a general idea of the value of my abilities, but I am still a person living in this world.

Among other things, I wanted to find out the value of my abilities from the mouth of someone who seemed to be a nobleman.

Being able to objectively understand the value of your abilities is not an opportunity you often get.

Of course, in this life, I want to live a long and thin life rather than a short and thick life.

Get a true wife, give birth to a son and a daughter, live happily ever after, and then end your life.

That’s what I want in this life.

Of course, in order for that to happen, the heroines must grow up and overcome the crisis that is coming to this world.

In that sense, I want to use this ability to help the heroines until this world becomes safe.

What is needed for that is to figure out how much value this ability I have has.

“Ha, you really don’t know anything. Remember, I will tell you well. ‘Ability’ is not something you get just because someone desperately wants it.”

When I deliberately pretended not to know the value of my abilities, Elena sighed and began to give her long speech.

“‘Ability’ is a gift from the gods. “If the gods themselves give power, they give it to the person who will best use it for the good of the world.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. So, at most, the number of ability users does not exceed 100 in one era. “It is said that in truly peaceful times, there were less than 10 people using the ability.”

“So how are you these days?”

I asked the blonde female student a question to determine which Erasto Chronicle time zone I was currently living in.

“It is said that a strange number of power users are appearing these days. “From what I heard through my father, there are already over 200 people.”

I have seen interviews with developers who said that the number of heroines in Erasto Chronicle is approximately 150, and that including heroines to be released in the future, the number will be approximately 200.

In other words, in addition to the 200 ability users who will appear in this era, there is a possibility that more ability users will appear.

“It sounds like a crisis has come to the world.”

“That’s right. You can see it that way… “But why am I having this conversation with you?”

Sheesh. There was something I wanted to know more about, but unfortunately the blonde girl came to her senses.

“Anyway, what do you want to say?”

“The number of ability users has increased rapidly recently, but among the abilities that have appeared so far, no one has been gifted with abilities similar to yours. I want you to be honest. “Did you really receive your powers from God?”

“Yes.”

No, it’s true that I really received my powers from God. I’m not sure if I can say my name or not, so I just stay still.

“Do you know a goddess named ‘Epitrina’?”

I asked the blonde girl if she knew about Epitrina.

“How dare you call that name in such a friendly way?”

I just said the name of Epitrina, the goddess who gave me my powers, and the blonde girl looked shocked.

“Did I do something wrong?”

“Of course! How dare you call the name of the Mother of all Gods and the noble Goddess who rules this world! “If you call her by her name in vain, you will be punished by her!”

“You’re going to be punished by heaven? “Will there be any trouble if I call her name?”

“Ha, you. Even now, run to a nearby cathedral or altar, kneel in front of the sanctuary, and offer a prayer of repentance. Then at least you can avoid losing your life.”

Hmm. I guess Epitree’s name wasn’t something she should call indiscriminately.

“Well, I don’t know. “If Epitrina were that kind of goddess, she wouldn’t have given me this ability.”

Look. I called her name twice now, but nothing happened to me.

“No, that’s ridiculous. “Why doesn’t anything happen when I use his name in vain?”

Why would it be so?

“Well, isn’t it natural?”

I smiled at the blonde girl and told her the truth.

“This ability I have was given to me by the goddess Epirina.”

“Ah, ah… ….”

As I looked at the blonde girl and revealed to her who I had received this ability from, her face instantly turned into despair.

Was she that scary of a goddess? From what I saw, she naturally had the power to overwhelm people, but she wasn’t a scary goddess… That’s right.

When I think about it again, I remember when I first met her epitrina, I used her honorific without even realizing it.

For some reason, she felt like she had to use her honorific.

Hmm, shall we go to the temple later and pray?

Then, I think I will be able to have a short conversation with Epitrina.

Then, suddenly, a blonde girl got down on her knees in front of me and started bowing down.

“Sorry! I dared to commit great disrespect to the apostle whom the Great Goddess sent down to this world!”

She looked at me and apologized repeatedly, saying something incomprehensible, “Apostle of Epitrina.”

What on earth is going on?

“Elena, you’re here!”

“Miss Mina… ….”

Even suddenly, the repair shop door slammed! It opened and Mina appeared.

Mina was out of breath as if she had run all the way here.

The sight of Mina, drenched in sweat and out of breath, is overflowing with lust…… No, you crazy guy.

Are you thinking about that in this situation?

“W-what are you talking about? Mr. Pathos, you are an apostle of the Great Goddess?”

“Uh, where were you listening from?”

“Well, so…” From the moment Elena entered her store… ….”

“Yes?”

“But! Since Elena left with an angry look on her face in the morning, I wondered if something bad had happened…….”

So, you were following me from the Academy and listening to everything I and the blonde girl said outside my store?

I never thought I would see a different side of Mina that I didn’t know about. It’s an unexpected benefit.

“You don’t have to apologize, so just stand up.”

“I am truly sorry. “I was rude.”

“No, I told you to wake up.”

In the first place, I am not Epitrina’s apostle, but a poor person from a family who was reincarnated into this world due to an accident.

“Then, do you forgive me?”

“Ugh, forgiveness or anything, I’m not Epitrina’s apostle or something.”

I had no choice but to help the blonde girl who was lying down on the floor stand up.

Mina also came up to me and helped the blonde girl, or Elena, stand up.

“I am just an ability user who received abilities as a gift from the goddess Epitrina, so don’t think too grandiosely. If you need to repair something later, please bring it. “It might be a bit expensive, but it’s definitely worth the repair.”

“Ah, I understand! Thank you, Apostle!”

No, even if you are not an apostle!

I desperately tried to explain that I was not an apostle, but the woman named Elena seemed to firmly believe that I was Epitrina’s apostle.

But, I didn’t want to just send them away, so I sent them away with a loaf of bread and a mana potion that I had made delicious with my abilities.

And the next day.

“Oh, by any chance. Is this the place that sells that delicious bread?”

…… It looks like something happened at the academy.

I think I’ll have to ask them later when they come.
