“And so… that’s how I came to this world.” I finished up.

In the end, there seemed to be no point in lying to the girls. God’s Eye was truly an amazing ability. I copied and, and found that it put Evil Eye, Skill Analysis, Basic Monster Identify, and Basic Item Identify to shame. It was almost embarrassing how many abilities it replaced. It really told you everything you wanted to know and displayed it in an easy to read platform. Lydia and I seemed to see things differently. I saw a status screen, not unlike RPG stats. Lydia described levels as more of a feeling because she couldn’t wrap her head around numbers.

I couldn’t waste using the ability too often. It required fairy dust. I had used half of the remaining vial I had acquired, and I had no knowledge of how to obtain more. I sort of hoped the boss Fairy Queen would have more as part of the reward for finishing this dungeon. Either way, I needed to be cautious with how I used the rest.

She had seen I was from another world, so I decided to just come clean about my origins. After I finished my story, which honestly, I didn’t have all that much to say, there was a long silence. It was Miki who broke it.

“So… that’s why Master acts like Master…” Miki said softly.

I winced at those words. It was better they knew the truth now. If I waited until after I gave them their freedom, it felt a bit like deceit. I didn’t want these girls to hate me.

“Is… is that okay?” I asked.

“Amazing!” Lydia said.

I looked up in shock, only to see a radiant smile on her face. I had thought to tell her this would break some of the awe and wonder she was experiencing. Understanding what and who a person really was did cause a lot of the mystery to disappear. It turned out she was looking at me with even more impressed eyes. I didn’t understand it.

“I saw Master with God Eyes…” Lydia said, skittishly. “Do you know what I saw?”

My heart sunk, but I still needed to know. “What?”

“Master is even more incredible than I originally thought!” She cried out.

Miki nodded. “I have only heard stories of Other Worlders. They say some of the greatest heroes, the harem hero, the slave hero, the summoning hero, the great magician, the animalkin hero… were all from other worlds. Although there are many with the name hero, there hasn’t been a True Hero in this world for at least a hundred years.”

“A True hero… is it?”

I found myself a bit relieved that I hadn’t unlocked the True Hero job. Would it be like the True Dungeon Diver Job? That meant it was really just a higher tier hero. I might get it if I just level hero enough. Or, going by comic books, maybe I needed to make the ultimate sacrifice and die selflessly for someone else. I didn’t want any of that. Rather, I was happy to switch to Basic Magician. I certainly had no desire to become a True hero or go down in history.

“Let’s move on…” I declared.

The boss’s room was suddenly starting to make me itch. Plus, I had a fairy to find. We finally left floor 20 and began our exploration of floor 21. I was back in the unknown once again.
