Chapter 217: Yes, I Did It
The appraisal revealed all details without any omissions. I could see the full descriptions of his skills, and there were no garbled sections.
His name was Keigo, indeed similar to mine, sharing even the kanji for “Kei.”
He was 17 years old with a level of 36. This is fairly high in this world, but by the standards of the other world, it’s a bit more nuanced. He could defeat an orc but would struggle against higher-ranked species.
As for the crucial skills:

While the profession and skill names were the same, their contents were significantly different.
For now, I’ll avoid commenting on the village’s name. I understand his feelings well, as it was also one of my initial candidates…
What’s more intriguing are the symbols ‘◇’ and ‘〇’ next to the village name. They likely represent the blessings of two deities… Yes, that seems to be the case. I’ve also understood the details, but I’ll review them one by one later.

Villager Certification:
- Allows setting a loyalty threshold for villager certification.
- If the threshold is not met, villager certification is automatically revoked.
- Collects a portion of the experience points gained by villagers.
- Current collection rate: 10%.
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
This skill is similar to mine, and the loyalty criteria are the same. The only addition is the collection of experience points, fixed at 10%.
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
Safe Zone:
- Constructs a barrier that prevents entry by anyone other than the user and villagers.
- Can be set in any location.
- Can be reset once deactivated.
- Fixed dimensions: 50m diameter, 20m height.

It appears to be a movable barrier that can be re-established multiple times. However, it seems that expanding the area is not possible. There might be a chance if the skill level increases.
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
Home Enhancement:
- Significantly increases home durability.
- Unlimited use of electricity, gas, and water.
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
Being able to use essential services is highly convenient, ensuring a comfortable life as long as one is at home. If durability increases, there’s no need to rely solely on barriers. The home can be left unattended while traveling, and a movable barrier ensures safety when heading to town.
Up to this point, these features are mostly within expectations. The ambiguity of the village’s definition is a bit concerning, though. It’s unclear if the village is within the barrier or around the home.
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
Otherworldly Trade:
- Exchanges magic stones for Japanese goods.
- Limited to items available on the market.
- The item list increases with the village population.
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
This skill stands out. It was somewhat expected, but now it’s confirmed that magic stones are used as currency, and only Japanese products are included. Unfortunately, the price list wasn’t visible.
(If this skill can be enhanced… could it enable importing items from abroad? It would be dangerous if it included weapons, let alone firearms.)
If combat weapons could be acquired, it would create an overwhelming advantage in the other world. There may be a need to investigate how many unique skill holders there are.
Now, about the divine blessings… I won’t get to that yet. Keigo has reached the front door and is approaching us.
(I’ll put the analysis on hold for now. First, let’s proceed with the conversation and extract some information.)
◇◇◇
We faced each other with a barrier between us. Each of us had guards behind us, and Masaki-san and the Self-Defense Force personnel were standing by our sides.
“Nice to meet you, I’m Keigo.”
“I’m Keisuke. Thank you for agreeing to meet with me today.”
“Oh, thank you for your courtesy… and I’m sorry for the wait.”
“It’s only natural to be cautious. If you have any concerns, please don’t hesitate to mention them.”
Not knowing what kind of person he was, I started with polite, non-committal greetings.
It seemed he had some understanding of our situation. He had obviously heard from Masaki-san and had watched the uploaded videos.
“By the way, is that goddess real?”
“Yes, she is the genuine goddess herself.”
“But in that other world, aren’t there only the sun and moon goddesses?”
“Yes, that’s what I initially heard too. I only learned about the Earth Goddess much later.”
“I see…?”
“Please keep this a secret, but—”
Since the topic of the goddess had come up right away, I subtly began probing for more information.
I revealed the minimum amount of information about my abilities and my ability to travel between Japan and the other world, presenting it as a secret to build trust. This was also to inform Masaki-san, the government official, as he would eventually find out anyway, so it shouldn’t affect future activities much.
“Is that so? Actually, I received a blessing from the goddess as well—”
Whether out of empathy for our shared situation or as a fair exchange, he quite readily confessed.
======================================
Blessing of the Sun Goddess: Enables transfer between Japan and the other world
- Transfers within a certain range centered around the user’s home
* Current coordinate point: Unrecognized state
As per the appraisal, thanks to the Sun Goddess, he had returned to Japan. He added that he should be able to return as well.
“But for some reason, I can’t return. I can’t even talk to the goddess anymore…”
“Do you know what might be causing that?”
“I have no idea… I was able to return right after coming back to Japan.”
“I see… that’s unfortunate.”
At this point, I couldn’t very well say, “Yes! The culprit is the man right in front of you,” so I sympathized with a solemn expression. I worried if the two behind me were laughing.
“Um, I have a request…”
Uh oh, he was about to say something cautiously. He looked at Masaki-san instead of me, hesitating to speak. It was clear he didn’t want the government to know. Following his lead, I signaled with my eyes.
“Understood. We’ll step out for a moment. Let us know when you’re done.”
The director and his team left without fuss.
(Alright… I wonder what request he’s going to make.)
