I have Became Able to Do Anything with My Growth Cheat but I Can not Seem to Get out of Being Jobless Chapter 181

Chapter 181

(181) If you want to work

Translator: Tseirp

After repairing the beaten up pirate ship — which was originally a fishing ship, I sailed our sailing ship alongside their fishing ship towards the northwest direction .

Only Carol and I were on the ship . The pirate crew, who were originally fishermen, were shocked at that fact .

“The construct of this sailing ship is unique as it seems to have really been devised to be able to sail with a small number of people . The person who made this ship is a genius!”

Hearing them praise Pionia made me as happy as if they praised me directly .

She can’t exit into this world . From the day she came to life until the day she ceases to function, she would live in my world and die in my world . However, the things she builds can be recognized by the people from the outside world like this . Even though she can’t come out, it’s really great to see proof that she is alive spread to the world like this .

They asked for the ship’s blueprint so I planned to hand it to them if Pionia was okay with it .

“Ichino-sama, are you okay?”

Carol asked me as I was handling the wheel .

“About what? I’m not feeling tired . ”

” … Even if Ichino-sama wants to become the allies of those former fishermen pirates, Carol doesn’t see why Ichino-sama must pretend to be a pirate as well . Carol has heard that the reincarnated people abhor pirates more than us . ”

“Oh~ . Well, in my time, becoming a pirate was an extremely popular occupation in a sense … that only applies to stories though . ” (TL: He’s most likely referring to One Piece . )

I smiled wryly as I thought that Malina would have understood my joke if she was there .

“I guess — I was the same too . Nevertheless, I envy those guys . ”

“Envy … ?”

“Ah, I’m not saying that I envy their acts of piracy okay? Erm, I think I told Carol before . I was jobless when I was in j.a.pan . ”

“Jobless as in … like Ichino-sama’s current job?”

“No, not this Jobless but not doing any work and not given the chance to do any work . Even if I went for job interviews, everything fell apart . Since my younger sister Miri was earning enough money to be independent, I wanted to quit my life of part-time jobs and get a permanent job so I went for all kinds of interviews . But like I described earlier, I was completely crushed . ”

I looked up at the sky . Some seagull-like bird was flying above our ship without me noticing .

“I thought about it . About why I was failing my interviews . Miri found all kinds of job openings for me but all of them didn’t work out . But now I understand why I failed those interviews . I — in the end, didn’t actually want to work, I purely just hated my unemployed self . ”

Even though I thought I wanted to work, I didn’t know what kind of job I wanted to do . Or rather, I was fine with doing anything as long as I got a job .

Of course I would fail the interviews . Even an interviewer without good intuition would be able to tell .

(Hah, telling them that I wanted to work regardless of what job it was would conversely make them feel that I wasn’t determined to approach them for the job . )

No matter how I try to gloss over that fact, they would probably notice it .

“Carol might not be able to see it but those guys’ jobs are all either Fishermen or Angler . Even though they are holding swords, they are practically not equipped to fight — they are even holding their sabers without any sheathes . ”

In this world, without the dedicated weapon skill, one can’t use that particular weapon . I also had a hard time in the past as I couldn’t even unsheathe the iron sword I had on my waist before I acquired the Sword Equip skill . To avoid that, one must first change job to Apprentice Swordsmen and level up by swinging a sword to acquire the Sword Equip skill .

Despite that fact, those guys just came over as Fishermen and Anglers and had not changed their jobs .

Despite knowing that their swords can’t possibly cut anybody like that .

Those guys probably had not given up on their fishing job in the truest sense . Because they love the job of fishing .

“Ichino-sama . Then, for the sake of letting them work as fishermen —”

“Yeah, well . Naturally, I still intend to listen to what they want us to do and I will refuse if it is dangerous — I’ll put on a mask for now so there won’t be any trouble even if we are discovered . If the army chases after us then we can just escape into My World . Instead, I am more concerned about that Miryuu girl who is going around crushing pirates . ”

“Ichino-sama won’t lose to anyone as long as the opponent is human . ”

” … Are you sure? She might actually be a berserk demon pretending to be human you know?”

I made it sound terrible and Carol trembled slightly so I laughed and pat Carol’s head .

“I’m just joking . Well, even if she’s a demon, we’ll be fine once we escape to My World . That place is like the G.o.ddess-samas’ domain so she won’t follow after us . ”

“That’s true —”

“Ah, more importantly, there’s the issue of the Demon Lord — the Demon Lord is apparently heading towards Port Kobe too . ”

If I knew this was going to happen, I would have asked Haru to tell me about the Demon Lord in more detail .

Since the Demon Lord was Haru’s master, we should be able to get along right? Although it’s possible that they will think I was a bad person who made Haru into a slave and attack me . At least if Haru herself was present with me, she would be able to convince them otherwise .

… Yup, it’s best if we don’t b.u.mp into the Demon Lord .

I do want to see Sheena again and talk to her but a wise man keeps away from danger . Avoiding unnecessary talks can prevent disaster from falling on yourself . One will be eaten by a tiger if one enters a tiger’s den . I derived my conclusion as all kinds of sayings crossed my mind .

The Demon Lord probably won’t take any action that would bring attention to themselves so perhaps they have already left Port Kobe .

I guess just thinking about it is pointless .

As I was mulling over that fact, I spot a glimpse of the continent in the direction of the fishing boat ahead of us .

It gradually grew in size as time pa.s.sed and the town also came clearly into view .

Since the ship in front looked like a pirate vessel, we couldn’t enter the town through the harbor without permission to enter . The fishermen guided us to a secret berth instead .

“Don’t tell me — it’s a dock behind a waterfall?”

“Behind a waterfall? That would make the whole ship wet and it would be inconvenient . ”

Carol commented but having a dock at the back of a waterfall is a man’s romance . A girl probably won’t understand .

I thought to myself but in the end, we stopped normally at a cove alongside a cliff a little away from the town . According to Carol, this terrain would ensure that the ships won’t be swept away even if a storm came by .

We released the anchor, folded the sail, lowered the small boat into the sea and went down the rope ladder .

For safety, I climbed down first but when I looked up, Carol’s … no, it’s nothing .

However, that Carol, when did she buy such a color?

I was a little surprised .
