The Successful Business of a Slave Career Planner Vol 2 Chapter 6

 “… I wonder if it was a failure”
 
 My first impression was that it failed when Howard left the shop saying “Then I will take my leave.”
 Using the Appraisal Skill, I watched Hetty and Howard’s Mental Chart movements and just when I was really confident that I have almost made it, I got a faint impression that I have said too much, and that was the result of the negotiations.
 
 In my opinion, I thought that what I said wasn’t that bad, but when I looked back at Hetty, “You were too aggressive” was her comment.
 
 “You looked like a very competent merchant from the Oasis district.”
 “Was that a compliment?”
 
 Hetty’s remark could mean I demanded without knowing my place, or it could also mean the negotiation was successful.
 Something like an indicator of the Mental Chart shows it was the latter meaning, but I replied “Oh well, I wonder about that”, an expression that could imply an answer to both situations, since I might have went too far.
 
 “But, I think you were so cool.”
 “Thank you.”
 
 When I saw it, Hetty’s reliability went up to 30%.
 Her evaluation of me had increased.
 In other words, the negotiations a while ago was probably a good performance for someone like Hetty.
 
 “I would be looked down upon if I accept a cheap contract, therefore it’s not worth it unless I do this much.”
 
 Even though I said that, I wasn’t sure of myself.
 Will be I able to say that it was okay just by looking at the other party’s expression?
 At the end, I reflected on myself.
 
 
 
 
 
 However, seems like the results for the spear training is already showing up. The original intent for it and not the advertis.e.m.e.nt.
 
 I realized that while looking at the tent for the low-cla.s.s slaves.
 They had acc.u.mulated experience points on their spearmanship skill as the effects of everyday training.
 It looks like the Demonkins are going to level up soon, and when they do their Spearmanship skills will be at level 2.
 
 As expected, learning from a powerful person that had Spearmanship Lv. 3, their progress was quick since they had been taught the peculiarities of the style.
 
 The growth of the low-cla.s.s slaves, as compared to Mina who was the leader, was bigger than her.
 That was because Mina spent less time training herself as she was teaching other people. But, if I give another reason, it was that she doesn’t have someone capable to teach her. There was no one capable person to point out any off shifts or kink in her form.
 
 I really wanted to increase Mina’s Spearmanship skill though.
 
 Still, is it being too greedy?
 However, I really thought that there should be a chance for it.
 
 
 
 
 
 Now then, I should train them in parallel with spear training, how about this one?
 
 I have thought so and looked at the methods to train in swordsmanship.
 As for the mentor of swordsmanship, I hired a man who was a former adventurer, Kane. His swordsmanship was at Lv. 2.
 I intend to have the slaves that doesn’t have any apt.i.tude in swordsmanship skills to train.
 
 They will train at the same time as when all members of Mina’s spear training does.
 There shouldn’t be any difference in the amount of training time.
 
 However, the improvement rate will be clearly different.
 
 Mina’s Spearmanship Lv.3 compared to Kane’s Swordsmanship Lv.2, it’s clear who is a better instructor…
 
 Mina’s teaching was better in developing Skill experience.
 Perhaps, Mina will probably be just better at teaching, it might be slightly interesting thing to find out.
 
 If by chance Mina was instructed by a more skillful person in the past, she may be using the teaching experience for the current spear training.
 In this case, Mina was trained with theory by a good mentor, while Kane’s foundation on swordsmanship was polished to Lv. 2 by self-learning.
 If that was so, Mina should be better as an instructor.
 
 And one more thing, even for someone without any skill apt.i.tude, they can still acquire and learn the skill.
 
 For the time being, there would be difference in gaining of skill experience, so I would only look at low-cla.s.s slaves that had acquired Swordsmanship Skill Lv. 0.
 Apparently, Skills aren’t absolutely innate, it seems you can acquire them.
 In a sense this would be a great discovery, that would mean to suggest that I might be able to learn a new skill.
 
 The skill that I really want is the negotiation technique. But the bottleneck is that there isn’t a slave that can teach me the negotiation technique.
 
 If skill apt.i.tude was not a condition, and gaining a skill was dependent on training, then there was a chance.
 From my current position, if I make full use of the slaves, I may be able to acquire Spearmanship, Swordsmanship, and if I like, even s.e.xual Skills.
 For the time being, it can’t be helped that there was no slave with the negotiation skills that I really want.
 
 It would be fun to aim for an otherworld cheat skill.
 
 Of course, I still have to a.s.sume my main occupation as a career consultant.
 As I was thinking that it was inevitable, both the training for spearmanship and swordsmanship had ended.
 
 
 
 
 
 “So, you want to learn spearmanship from me huh.”
 
 Was it my imagination that Mina seemed to be happy?
 It was amusing looking at the Werecat’s trait of wagging their tails as a response.
 
 “Well, if I had to say it clearly, I want to watch Mina train the spear in front of me, I only want to imitate it.”
 “Well, I will surely train you properly!”
 
 I felt apologetic towards her enthusiasm, but I have no plans of learning spearmanship.
 I only thought of using my Appraisal Skill to appraise the spear style.
 
 It was a success during the day when Mina was training the slaves.
 It was a success because when I used the Appraisal Skill on the style that the slaves were practicing, an information popped up and it showed “Plow Style”.
 
 Applying this further, I want to see if I could use my Appraisal Skill and learn anything about the high-speed spear dance training Mina currently does.
 
 “… So that’s it.”
 
 When I explained it to Mina, she somehow felt sad.
 I felt like I did something a little bad to her.
 However, I want to quickly know what was her spear style.
 
 “Well then, here I go.”
 
 Will she be too conscious if I look starting now? Mina was fidgeting and can’t seem to calm down that she did the introduction twice.
 But her state completely changed when she began her performance.
 
 Her performance was intense like a raging fire.
 She swung the spear like a bo staff, took a step back and thrust for the second strike.
 She then hit the ground with the spear handle, and using the tension of the spear, she did a sweep together with the rotation of the spear.
 And thus I a.s.sumed she struck the foot, the body and the throat of the imagined enemy. Three consecutive high speed attack.
 
 When I saw it, I was just lost for any words to say.
 Was this the real Mina?
 
 I realized that I was completely enamored
 I knew why I just realized it because I saw what I needed to see just now.
 The pop-up information floating for quite a while showed that it was the “Flame Dance”.
