“Esta, bring that food to .”
“I’m coming!”
“Hazel, I want to order this drink.”
“Okay, nya!”
“Thank you for the food, Cheri.”
“Un.”
"Gill, Kenya, bring these plates to table number four.”
““Okay!””
Tonight stretched on longer than usual, the lively bar buzzing with the energy of free food.
The adventurers, all in high spirits, drank and laughed without restraint.
Sis Sasa abandoned her usual position at the counter, transforming into a waitress, while Sis Morin assisted Brother Greg in the kitchen.
I had offered to help, but they insisted I take a break, still concerned after the confrontation with Matias’ aura.
Thus, I found myself near the counter, idly watching the scene unfold, my al finished, and boredom creeping in.

Glancing at my status, I couldn't help but feel a small sense of pride.
Six months ago, my stats had been nothing, but now, every attribute has reached the three-digit range.
Yet, despite this growth, I knew better than to let it go to my head. Aza had warned from the start—the stronger I got, the slower my growth would beco.
She told this amount of growth because of still being a kid, the kid's growth rate is bigger than an adult’s.
However, adults get helped by the amount of training they can do. For example, within 10 minutes, kids may be able to run 2 laps, but adults may be able to run 5 laps.
Aza had also ntioned that combat training was more effective than normal training—which explained why adventurers gained strength faster than people who simply trained all day.
Still, I wasn't too worried.
As proof, Aza had even given a rough estimate of the average stat ranges for adventurer ranks:
G-Rank: 100 - 300
F-Rank: 300 - 500
E-Rank: 500 - 1,000
D-Rank: 1,000 - 2,000
C-Rank: 2,000 - 5,000
B-Rank: 5,000 - 10,000
A-Rank: 10,000 - 100,000
S-Rank & Heroes: 100,000
At G-Rank, adventurers mostly ran errands in town, while F-Rank usually involved gathering herbs outside.
Real fights began at E-Rank, and they could accept quests up to one rank above them.
However, promotion wasn't based on stats, but rather a point system—the amount of requests they finished based on the requests’ rank—which ant that many E-Rank adventurers had stats lower than so G-Ranks.
Still, to reach D-Rank and beyond, they had to pass an exam, making it harder to advance without real skill.
By contrast, Sissy’s stats were nearing 300, despite having been an adventurer for only a year and three months.
anwhile, Sis Celes had already surpassed 500, though she remained G-Rank because she preferred simple requests that allowed her more ti for training.
But it has been 2 years and 9 months since she registered as an adventurer, so probably she will get promoted to F-Rank soon.
But the real monsters in my family are my parents.
My father’s stats surpassed 6,000, and my mother's exceeded 4,500.
M parents had earned their ranks through real combat experience—fighting monsters one rank higher than themselves, rather than throwing themselves recklessly into suicidal battles like Matias.
By the way, usually the result of appraisal can’t be saved.
But it doesn’t matter to , because I have the mory card, Aza.

The appraisal skill I had been training diligently had leveled up to 3, granting the ability to manipulate others’ attributes with Status Manipulation innate talent.
However, I could only do so with their consent.
Only Mom and Dad knew about this ability, which is why their status points were at zero—I had personally allocated them for efficiency.
My sisters, on the other hand, only knew about my appraisal skill, not the status manipulation talent.
I planned to tell them once they reached E-Rank, since it would actually benefit them at that stage.
Currently imrsed in G-Rank requests, they find joy in assisting townsfolk.
By the way, G-Rank quests are usually easy and can be completed by 1 person.
The amount of rewards won’t increase even if they take the sa request together.
So, my sisters didn’t form a party and take the quests alone.
That way, they can earn money from the quests.
Also, I haven’t used Immortal Bonds yet.
Apparently, I have to raise my Appraisal skill to level 10 first to be able to check others’ Trust percentage on .
Aza told that it won’t just check others’ Trust, but enable Immortal Bonds skill too.
So it can’t be helped.
【Correct.】
【Already done. Based on the aura he released, his aura capacity barely reaches 2,000, and his other attributes should be slightly below that. 】
As expected of my personal Go*gle, she had already calculated everything before I even finished my sentence.
【Yes.】
I tapped my fingers against the counter, deep in thought.
Matias…
He was strong, but not as strong as he thought.
Even Sis Hazel and Sis Esta surpassed him—but they were bound by his orders.
I had saved them for now, but not completely.
Not yet.
But one day…
I would make sure they were truly free.
