Start in DxD as Motohama: Leveling Up in Another World-Chapter 2: Exploring the cabin. Help the girl in trouble

After so much information, he decided to put things aside for a moment while he continued to browse the room.

Near the desk and chair, he noticed a wooden closet containing thin shirts, pants, and underwear that felt pleasant to the touch.

"Maybe I'll wear them later after washing them."

Turning his gaze, he found a window. Approaching it, he looked out and was thrilled with what he saw.

The area beyond the window was filled with trees. The house he lived in was nothing like this mountainous area. It was in a residential area, and cars could usually be seen passing by. However, this cabin was completely surrounded by forest.

Opening the window, he could feel the pure air, unlike that of the city, flow into his lungs.

Closing the window, he continued his exploration when he noticed a pencil and paper on the desk.

He picked up the paper but couldn't understand the inscriptions on it.

"Is this the language of this world?"

Looking at the paper for a few seconds, a new message appeared.

[Language Comprehension skill acquired]

Having acquired such a useful skill at the moment he needed it, he eagerly began to read the contents of the mysterious paper.

In short, the previous owner of the house had decided to part with the cabin because his life was nearing its end. Since he had no family, if someone found the house, he would give ownership to that person, along with everything inside. The ownership record was magically updated so that no one other than the owner would enter the house.

He felt quite blessed right now. The door connecting to this place was as if he'd spent all the luck of his life.

Not only that, the line about magic excited him. Didn't this mean he could turn things around in his favor in the world he'd been reincarnated to? Fighting Issei and defeating him. Gaining the love of unparalleled beauties. Just thinking about it made his heart race.

Returning the paper to its place, he walked to another area of ​​the room where a group of weapons were arranged side by side.

Picking up the first sword he saw, he wasn't surprised by its weight, as his physical strength was quite weak in the first place.

"It is a splendid sword."

It was a double-edged sword that shone like it had just been polished, and the daughter's face was clearly reflected in it. The handle was almost undecorated, but there was still something familiar about the sword in her hand.

When he used {Appraisal} on it, the information quickly appeared.

[Absolute Sword: The pinnacle of all swords. The blade remains shiny without tarnishing, and the edge is always perfectly sharp. It's said to be able to cut through anything, but that depends on the contractor. (Not for sale)]

[Contractor: Shinji Motohama]

"Just... woah."

He hadn't expected something so incredible. Such a powerful sword, and it was under his control.

He couldn't help but question the house's previous owner for leaving something of this caliber lying around.

"I want to use it."

As this thought struck him, his feet automatically walked toward the door leading to the outside of the cabin.

Apparently, the land where the house was built was quite spacious, and the front was like a garden. There were also farmland.

"Is all this included as part of the house?"

A message answered his question.

[The inside of the fence surrounding the house is the owner's land.]

With good humor unbecoming of his age, he tried to swing the heavy sword as he wished, but it was useless. The end result was more like swinging the sword than the other way around. A result obvious to any onlooker.

"Well... uh... that was fun..."

Panting, he sank down onto the grass.

[You have acquired the skill {Sword Mastery Lv. 1}]

He was slightly surprised to have acquired a skill so easily, but recalling the effects of his title, he regained his composure.

Concentrating on the skill's description, he discovered that the number next to it indicates the proficiency level, with the limit being 10.

Having understood how his title worked, he didn't stop at the sword. He quickly went in search of the rest of the weapons, which were just as amazing as the sword.

[Absolute Spear: The only spear that surpasses the Divine Spear. This spear is said to be able to pierce anything, according to the Contractor. This spear cannot be broken. If thrown, it will always hit its target and return to the Contractor's hand. (Not for sale)

[Contractor: Shinji Motohama]

[Death Scythe: A scythe that could even kill a Death God. It is said to be capable of cutting through anything the Contractor desires. Any wound caused by this scythe, no matter how small, will be fatal. (Not for sale)

[Contractor: Shinji Motohama]

[Infinity Gauntlet: This not only increases the power of the blow, but can also be used as protection. One hit equals infinite attacks. (Not for sale)]

[Contractor: Shinji Motohama]

[Formless Bow: The ultimate bow without physical form. Depending on the Contractor's will, it can produce an infinite number of arrows. It is said that the arrows are capable of being shot across the world. It will hit absolutely any target the contractor desires.

[Contractor: Shinji Motohama]

Like these, there were other groups of weapons, which he touched, gaining information about them.

Soon, a new window appeared.

[All conditions have been met. The combat skills have been combined into one. {True Martial Art: 1} skill acquired.]

Reading the description, he knew it was a skill acquired by anyone who knew all the combat arts.

"This... just by swinging weapons, I've become an incredibly broken existence in the martial arts realm. Masters who've been practicing for years would commit suicide if they knew."

After that, he put all the scattered weapons into the {Item Box} to organize them. Of course, he had confirmed that he could retrieve them freely.

Having completed all the tests, he was mentally exhausted. Returning to his grandfather's hidden room, he remembered he had left the bathtub running.

"Shit, I have to hurry. The water bill will be a problem."

...

After taking a shower, she went shopping since the refrigerator at home was empty.

As she walked, she came across an unpleasant scene.

"Hey, hey, it's okay. Right? Join us for a movie."

"I already said no. Let me go! How many more times do I have to turn you down?"

A girl her age was trapped between a group of men who really stand out. After all, the convenience store she went to was in a residential area, and there were a lot of people walking around. Despite the girl's resistance, the men persistently surrounded her. The people passing by ignored what had happened.

Finally, one of the men grabbed her arm.

"Hey, come on, let's go."

"It's okay, nothing bad will happen."

"I don't want to! Let me go, please!"

"Excuse me!"

"...Huh?"

All the men turned to look at him. Their collective gaze was sharp, and it was clear they despised him.

"What's wrong, idiot? Do you have business with us or something? Huh?!"

"No. But that girl clearly doesn't like them."

They almost growled in offense. They ignored the girl and surrounded him.

"You're making fun of us, huh? You little bastard."

"Stop bothering him, idiot."

One of the men threw a punch at his face. The speed of the blow was pretty decent, but it was still visible to his eyes. Dodging the blow, he returned the attack by kicking the man in the balls.

The man opened his eyes in surprise before grabbing his groin in pain.

Adjusting his glasses, he smiled as he felt a chill run down his spine. Turning his gaze, he was greeted by a punch to the face that knocked him to the ground.

"Don't mess with us... you son of a bitch!"

"You disgusting nerd!"

"Die, son of a bitch!"

Face, chest, abdomen. With each blow, Motohama felt pain in his body. Suddenly, the men stopped and ran away.

"Hey, the police are coming!"

"You've got to be kidding me!"

"Someone reported us, let's get lost!"

The men fled the scene in terror.

His body was in pain, but not unbearably sore. Nothing seemed broken.

He guessed it was related to the skills he'd acquired earlier. He'd also evenly distributed his available BP among his stats earlier.

The girl being harassed earlier came running and helped him up.

"Are you okay? I'll call an ambulance right away...!"

"Okay, that won't be... necessary..."

"B-but..."

He was quite happy that a pretty girl cared about him, but he didn't want to show weakness anymore, so he stood up, enduring the pain.

"I'll help you..."

"It's... not... necessary... Instead. They were harassing you, weren't they? Be careful from now on."

He was worried since his reputation was known in these parts, and he didn't want to ruin the girl's image of him.

Soon the police arrived. They were two women and a man.

The girl explained in detail what had happened to the police officer. After a brief series of questions, the police officer decided to send the girl home.

"We'll send you home too. Where do you live?"

One of the officers offered.

"No need. I came to buy groceries. I'll go home once I'm done."

"I see... well, be careful."

As the police officers left with the girl, she turned and bowed her head.

"Thank you for your help!"

"Don't worry about it... I didn't do anything after all."

"That's not true! In fact, you made me so happy! Thank you very much. I'll be sure to repay you for this."

"No need... I'll leave first. Take care."

Cutting off the conversation, she continued with her work while ignoring everything else.
