Chapter 117: Attribute Value Monster
Aqua's breakdown and recovery always happened in a single thought; upon raising her head and seeing the boy's face turn serious, she realized that as a reliable Goddess-sama, she shouldn't show such a useless expression, and she immediately forced herself to rally her spirits.
"Ah, don't know what to do, that was a joke, Broly, you don't need to worry, leave everything to me, the great Water Goddess Aqua-sama."
Spouting such big talk, Aqua spotted, at a table not far behind the boy, an old man dressed as a believer; a flash of inspiration struck her mind, and her eyes lit up.
"I've got a way, I'm the great Goddess-sama after all, and in this world I have quite a few devout believers; as long as I announce my identity, I'll quickly be able to obtain offerings from believers!"
Saying this, Aqua told Broly to stay put and not move, and she confidently walked over to that believer-dressed old man all by herself.
"Devout believer, you must have heard the Goddess's summons, right? That's right, the one who summoned you is me, the very Goddess Aqua worshipped by the Axis Cult; right now, this Goddess urgently needs some money, so please offer a bit of money to me!"
The old man looked at the supremely confident girl before him, scratched his face, and pulled out from his pocket a black crystal, the mark of a devout believer of the Eris Cult.
"Sorry, I'm not an Axis Cult believer, I'm a believer of Eris-sama."
The moment those words left his mouth, even Broly could detect an awkward atmosphere spreading over there.
Aqua: "..."
Biting her lip, the big toe inside her shoe curled restlessly, as if wanting to curl out a three-bedroom apartment.
"However, although I'm not an Axis Cult believer, I can also see you're in trouble, don't have money to pay the registration fee, right?
Hmm, consider this money this old man sponsoring you young people; the Goddess of Luck Eris-sama said to help those who need help."
Saying this, the old man took out some coins and handed them to Aqua.
"Little miss, believing in a Goddess-sama is fine, but treating yourself as a Goddess-sama, that's your mistake; may Eris-sama bless you, so you won't be punished by the Water Goddess-sama you believe in."
The old man made an Eris Cult prayer gesture, then stood up and left.
"I was given charity by my Junior Goddess's believer, told the truth that I'm a Goddess-sama, yet wasn't believed..."
Aqua returned holding the money with tears welling in her eyes; Broly looked at her crushed appearance and didn't know what comforting words to say.
He thought for a bit, then shifted the focus: "Anyway, we have money to pay that registration fee now, right?"
"Mhm."
Wiping her tears, Aqua rallied her spirits.
"First solve the registration problem; this money counts as borrowed from my Junior's believer, once I have money later, I'll return this money."
Saying this, Aqua brought Broly back to the registration counter; the Adventurer's Guild receptionist Luna had witnessed the whole scene of Aqua obtaining the registration fee, and only felt that a young woman making a living with a little brother in tow really isn't easy.
After Aqua paid the registration fee, she took out the registration card again.
"Then, let me explain once more; Adventurers have various classes, and this registration card can record how many subjugations an Adventurer has conducted.
After a level up, you'll also obtain points used to learn skills, so once you get them, please try to raise your level as much as possible.
Alright, then please both place your hands on this crystal ball here; it will confirm the attribute values of those registering for the first time.
Afterwards, you two can choose a class suitable for your own attributes and undergo a job change."
"Then let me go first."
Aqua felt that as the adult she should set an example for the child relying on her, so she stepped forward first and placed her hand on the crystal ball.
"Ah, amazing, aside from Intelligence far below average and Luck slightly inferior to an ordinary person, all other attribute values greatly exceed the average."
Luna exclaimed, shocked by the paranormal values Aqua had displayed. "What what, does that mean I'm amazing?"
Not just amazing, simply a case of not judging a book by its cover.
Who could believe these are attributes possessed by someone who couldn't even afford the registration fee?
"Of course amazing; aside from the Mage class which has high Intelligence requirements, you can take up any other class, including advanced classes like Crusader, Sword Master, High Priest."
The receptionist's exclamation drew the attention of other adventurers in the Adventurer's Guild; Aqua's registration situation was simply as rare as a phoenix appearing in a chicken coop.
"Although it's a bit regrettable there's no Goddess class, I'll choose to become a High Priest."
"High Priest, huh; able to proficiently use all healing and support magic, and possessing powerful strength enough to serve as a vanguard, it truly is an all-rounder class."
"To look after this kid, I have to be an all-rounder."
Aqua crossed her arms, suddenly feeling that this sensation of being the center of everyone's attention really wasn't bad.
"Alright, Broly, it's your turn, no need for too much burden, I'm already here."
Aqua puffed out her chest and pushed the boy beside her forward.
【Dou Qi Three-Serve】
When Broly placed his hand on the crystal ball, this segment of information suddenly surfaced in his mind.
"Wait, this is?!"
The receptionist widened her eyes; having already witnessed Aqua's paranormal attribute values, she was still shocked now.
"Aside from Intelligence and Luck being merely average, all other attribute values actually, actually all hit max, but how is that possible?!"
Attributes in this world are visible things, but normally it's also impossible for anyone's attribute values to display MAX after them.
"So, Broly's situation, is he even more amazing than me?"
Aqua couldn't help but ask.
"No one knows exactly how much max attributes are, but it can be affirmed that this kid, just like you, can take up all classes except those requiring high Intelligence, even Mage can be changed into, just no talent for it."
Saying this, Luna handed the registered class card to Broly, wearing a kindly smile as she inquired: "Little brother, don't know what class you want to take up, also High Priest like your big sister?"
Broly took the registered class card, thought for a bit, then asked: "Is there a class that makes it easier to find a wife?"
Receptionist: "???"
"Haha, such a young age, yet already this talented."
Hearing this, a group of male adventurers burst into hearty laughter.
"If little brother is willing to join big sister's party, big sister doesn't mind being your wife."
A female adventurer said this.
"He's still a child!"
This made Aqua hurriedly shield Broly behind her, just like a mother hen protecting her chicks.
