Chapter 39

**Title: Weapon Unfit for You**

**Explanation: Understand this. Your battle is not for hurting or killing.**

**Effect: When using a weapon, proficiency increase is halted.**

The title displayed on the next slide was one I remembered all too well. After all, it was a terrifying title that had tried to crush my explorer career right from the start.

"This is effectively a weapon ban. Needless to say, this is the world's first ultra-rare title."

"It's a bad one, though. A title with a disadvantage effect has never appeared before, right?"

"That's right. I imagine it must have been tough when you received this title. I can empathize with your pain."

"Well, you don't have to be so serious about it..."

At the time, I was pretty depressed. But with the encouragement from Kaori and the realization that I could still do things without weapons, I no longer think much of it.

But... it still bothers me.

Why was such a title given to me in the first place? I understand that using weapons led to this ban, but what is the reason for not being allowed to use weapons?

"Why did the system ban the use of weapons?"

"Hmm... I have a few theories, but to discuss them, we need to re-examine the title you received, Kōhei."

"That's true."

After this title, the skills I obtained seem to have some connections. So, it's necessary to review everything from the beginning. The slide moved, and the titles I had obtained were displayed one by one.

**Title: One Who Has Not Noticed the Glow**

**Explanation: The world will eventually realize. The true glow is here.**

**Effect: When leveling up, a growth bonus is granted to all abilities.**

---

"The title 'One Who Has Not Noticed the Glow.' The effect is a growth bonus to all abilities when leveling up, which is quite exceptional."

"Does that mean with each level up, there's an additional bonus increase on top of the usual increase?"

"Yes. This means that as you level up, you become stronger compared to other explorers of the same level."

---

**Title: One Who Brings the Next Era**

**Explanation: The era is as you wish. You are the one the era desired.**

**Effect: When defeating a monster, materials are guaranteed to drop.**

---

"The title 'One Who Brings the Next Era'! This title announced to the heads of various explorer organizations that Kōhei is the savior! The effect is that materials from defeated monsters drop with 100% certainty, which is incredible!"

"Speaking of which, what happened to the materials from the monsters I defeated during the recent stampede? I had to take them down quickly and in a hurry."

"Most were picked up by the explorers on the scene, and the ones missed were recovered by the guild's post-incident staff... I apologize for the inconvenience."

"It's fine. It can't be compared to human lives."

"......Noble......"

---

**Title: Work-Life Balancer**

**Explanation: Living each day and accomplishing what should be done. This is the cycle of all life.**

**Effect: Regeneration ability granted during daily life. Bonus to durability during combat.**

---

"This one is a bit different, isn't it?"

"Both the explanation and effect are unique, but the name is quite ordinary."

"Maybe because it's a bit removed from the dungeon? Titles focused on daily life aren't as poetic?"

"From the system's perspective, which wants to encourage dungeon exploration, the naming might be a bit casual."

---

**Title: One Who Saves Souls**

**Explanation: Evil, wickedness, and demons. Light illuminates all.**

**Effect: Combat technique proficiency increases 10 times faster.**

---

"This is the one. The title that works in conjunction with the weapon ban effect."

"Was the weapon ban planned because this title was to be given, or was this title given as a compensatory measure after the weapon ban?"

"The intention behind the weapon ban could change depending on the sequence."

---

**Title: One Who Walks the Path with Courage and Lives with Compassion**

**Explanation: Using the power you have correctly is called courage. Using the power you have to protect the good is called compassion.**

**Effect: When a specific skill is activated, a glowing phenomenon is granted. Light is emitted from the entire body, healing the spirits of those who see it.**

---

"Here comes the problem child."

"Isn't this a wonderful skill that adds a brilliant performance to the savior myth?"

"Regarding this, it seems the system's intentions are quite evident..."

"By the way, the results of the mental health care provided by the guild as part of the post-incident measures showed that everyone who saw the savior's glow had surprisingly little psychological shock."

"The effect of healing the spirit does seem to work. It's good to know that even something as flashy as Shining Yamagata has its uses."

---

The trauma from monsters invading daily life is something I'd rather not have.

If the light is for the people, even if it seems too flashy and might just be the system's taste... it has value.
