Capítulo 44: Cursed Guest

After the addition of the storage skill to my offerings, the Skill Shop became even more popular. That's putting it lightly—the line outside the "Bug Shop" was now three hundred strong.

A man shuffled forward, looking a bit out of place compared to the adventurers and students I usually saw. He didn't even seem interested in the skills.

"I heard you could check my condition," he said. "I don't need any skills, just the diagnosis."

An unusual request. I couldn't waste much time, though, with so many people waiting. After all, this was a busy day, and I'd need to move quickly. I cast a diagnostic spell, the Mana Resonance Imaging.
