I Became the Handyman That the Heroines Are Obsessed With

Episode 29 – Meeting with the Imperial Chancellor, Bergen Staylor (2)

Bergen Staylor cannot take his eyes off the amazing event unfolding before his eyes. There wasn’t.

I only hit the hammer three times on the broken sword, and the sword returned to its former appearance with a faint glow.

If this is not an ability received from God, the only comparable magic is ‘time rewind’.

However, this man who showed amazing abilities right before Bergen’s eyes did not even look like an archmage.

He simply lifted the hammer and struck the treasured sword three times.

By seeing with his own eyes how the Pathos ability was used, Bergen became convinced that he was a user of the ability.

◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈

In fact, he learned about pathos from intelligence agents spread throughout the empire, saying that an ability user with the ability to fix everything had appeared.

Recently, a lot of ability users have appeared, but most of them have shown abilities that are close to a deteriorated version or clone of existing abilities, such as strengthening their muscles or creating fire that cannot be extinguished with water.

So, even when Bergen received a report from an intelligence agent that a new ability user had appeared, he did not show much interest.

Anyway, if you’re an ability user, aren’t the abilities you use all there?

Some of them showed the ability to create light with physical power, but even that was merely an ability possessed by warriors appearing in old history books.

However, the user of this ability, who recently appeared, had abilities that had never been reported before.

This was about pathos, which has the ability to fix everything.

Bergen showed interest in hearing that a person with the ability to fix everything had appeared, and was very happy that he was coming to Glesius Academy.

How could he not be happy that he could come close to where he lives with his own two feet, without having to go there himself?

So Bergen told the intelligence agents to keep a close watch on his man named Pathos and report all information about him.

He gradually grew interested in Pathos as he received reports of events that occurred while he was staying in Arcanium.

And while receiving a report from an intelligence agent, Bergen learned about everything that happened to Pathos and sent the head of the house, Heron, to invite Pathos to his mansion.

Before that, an intelligence agent disguised as a commoner was sent to repair several items, and he was quite surprised to see that the items had actually been completely fixed.

Furthermore, he realized that the abilities he showed directly behind his mansion were not comparable to those of other ability users.

After seeing the power of pathos before his eyes, Bergen made a decision in his mind.

This man, who had the ability to fix everything, had to be made into a member of the Gelevrio Empire.

For this purpose, he was willing to commit illegal acts that he had never done before.

◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈

Phew, I was wondering what would happen if my abilities weren’t used even when I used the new hammer, but fortunately, my abilities were fully utilized even when I used the new hammer.

The treasure, wrapped in a faint halo of light, was once again showing off its brilliant appearance.

This treasured sword, which had lost its shine due to all kinds of scratches and the blade was rusting and falling off, has regained new life.

I picked up the treasured sword and presented it to Prime Minister Bergen.

“I want you to touch it and check it for yourself.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Prime Minister Bergen accepted the treasured sword that had been neatly repaired using my abilities with an expression of complete disbelief.

“It’s incredible. It looks the same as when I received this treasured sword from His Majesty 30 years ago.”

Huh? A treasured sword given to you by His Majesty? Could it be that the sword I repaired was the sword given to him by the emperor of the Gelevrio Empire?

“This sword is a sword that no one could fix, no matter how good a blacksmith he was. Even when he visited the king of the dwarves, a race of artisans and blacksmiths, he was told that he could not fix it with his own abilities.”

Prime Minister Bergen’s eyes, looking at the treasured sword, seemed lost in memories.

“Thank you so much. Thanks to you, the treasure that His Majesty the Emperor gave me has regained its shine.”

Hmm. It seems that this sword was quite a valuable item to Chancellor Bergen.

But why was it left unmanaged and left in this state?

“I see you are interested in the story behind this sword? “Isn’t that right?”

“Yes, but… ….”

“hehehe, this sword was originally made for ceremonial purposes, not for combat. It was a sword given to me by His Majesty the Emperor when I ascended to the position of Prime Minister. However, during the rampage of a crazy warlock, part of the mansion was damaged, and the curse the warlock threw at that time caused this sword to become damaged like this.”

Aha. That’s why the sword took that shape.

Anyway, you’re a crazy warlock. In Erasto Chronicle, there was a mission where a dark magician appeared as the boss.

What was the name of that warlock? He was the guy who started out there?

Ah! Now I remembered.

“By any chance, was the warlock’s name Deretheo?”

“Oh! Do you even know the name of that crazy warlock? “He must be truly amazing, even to the extent of being spread all over the Eastern Continent.”

I guess that’s right.

Tereteo was the name of the boss of Chapter 3, a crazy warlock who became a lich.

I went on an outdoor training trip at Glesius Academy, and there happened to be Deretheo’s dungeon there.

I remember that while exploring the dungeon, I met Deretheo, who had become a lich, and defeated him after much hardship.

I don’t remember the specific story. Because I pushed aside the early story so long ago that I don’t remember it anymore.

“Anyway, I didn’t know that the treasure that was broken by that guy would be repaired like this.”

“I understand. Even I, who has this ability, am surprised every time I use it.”

“hahahahaha. It seemed like it. “The more unique abilities people have, the more often they don’t believe in their own abilities.”

Seeing that I was smiling and answering, it seemed like Prime Minister Bergen liked my answer.

Especially, since this is a fantasy world with a strong class system, if you are an aristocrat and make a mistake and are disliked by someone in a high position, your real life will become difficult.

My goal was to live a long, thin life, so I had no intention of being looked down upon by those in authority.

“Okay. Heron!”

“Did you call me? Mr. Prime Minister.”

“Go and get some papers and a pen.”

Prime Minister Bergen called the head deacon and ordered him to bring something.

Following that order, the owner of the house went inside the mansion and came out with a document with something written on it and a quill.

Then he had them put away the things on the table and then he put the quill and papers down on the table and stepped back.

“Now that I think about it, you. “It looks like you haven’t been verified as a certified person yet, right?”

“What is the verification of public ability?”

“hahahaha. It’s been a while since I gave this old man some fun. Well, since ability users do not appear in the Eastern Continent, there must be no system such as verification of certified ability users.”

Prime Minister Bergen seemed to misunderstand that I was really from the Eastern Continent.

Hmm, it’s true that I’m from the East, but I’m actually confused as to whether I’m from the Eastern Continent.

Well, if there’s common sense that I don’t know, I guess I can just use the excuse that I’m from the Eastern Continent and get away with it.

“If you get verified as a user of abilities through the official ability verification system, you won’t have to live as hard as you do now. “The censorship incident that occurred at your store also occurred because it was not verified that you were a user of abilities.”

I just quietly listened to Prime Minister Bergen’s explanation.

“Well, I had a hand in what happened at your store, so don’t worry. It all worked out well. By the way, what do you want to do with your life from now on?”

Prime Minister Bergen asked me a question while writing something on a document.

What do you want to do for a living?

“I want to save enough money while running a repair shop, meet a good person, get married, start a family, and live happily.”

“Hmmm. “He is down-to-earth and simple, and yet he is a true young man who pursues his own happiness.”

Huh? I was just saying my wish, but is it still interpreted that way?

“It is dangerous to be overly ambitious, but it is also not good to not use your abilities properly. So, let me make you an offer you can’t refuse.”

Are you going to make me an offer you can’t refuse? What is the Prime Minister, the second-in-command in the empire, trying to propose to me?

“Would you like to study at Glesius Academy?”

I couldn’t say anything after hearing Chancellor Bergen’s proposal.

It is the main stage of Erasto Chronicle, and a place where the heroines live, breathe, and work.

He was now suggesting that I enroll there.
