"....you can call me veldora"
Velzard took veldora name without shame in a deep and serious voice.
"Yes. So Veldora-san,Your name doesn't sound like you're from Re_Estiz. what brings you to E-Rantel?"
Albert asked her."Judging by your strength and equipment, you're probably a noble knight or a powerful adventurer."
"Yeah, and that ice magic was awesome!, man. I would have considered you a wizard if it weren't for your armor and that sword on your waist," Adam continued.
"Adam, there are magicians who use weapons, but since most of them are in teams, it's hard to find one," Laura said in the middle of her drink.
"Really? I thought all mages were useless in close combat."
As soon as he said that, Adam received a slap on his head from Laura.
"What do you mean by that you bastard! Are you saying I'm useless?!" she said, anger evident on her face.
"How would I know?! You always hide behind us and shoot fireballs and then get angry because it takes so long! While we're the ones who are really fighting," Adam replied angrily as well.
"What? Do you want to pick a fight with me?" she said, sticking her head against his.
"Bring it on!" he said, imitating her action.
Fortunately, Drake stepped in to stop them.
"Okay, stop now. You're acting like children. I apologize for this scene, Veldora-san."
"Hahaha it's okay it proves that you guys are comfortable with each other. Have you been a group for a long time?"
"Yes, actually, we've been together for years. We've fought many life and death battles, so we trust each other a lot. It was just Adam and I at first. We were childhood friends, then we met Laura in the Adventurers' Guild when we were looking for a mage," Albert said, recalling the memories.
Laura: "At that time, they were new and no one wanted to join them, so I felt sorry for them and joined, and that's how we became a band," she said, forgetting her previous anger and sitting next to Adam.
"That's impressive, but what about Drake?"
Velzard said as she looked at Drake, noticing a hint of sadness in his eyes.
Drake: "At the time, I was still grieving the death of my wife and was about to retire, so I decided to do one last mission. I joined this team. I was impressed by their harmony and enthusiasm.
After that mission, I did several more, and I guess I got used to their presence, so I asked to join the team."
'What a dramatic story,' Velzard thought to herself.
"I see. So two are compatible for that reason."
And so they talked for another half hour until they went to sleep, having prepared a tent alone for Velzard as an expression of their gratitude.
velzard pov:
After talking to them, I learned several things.
First: Nazarick doesn't exist yet or it hasn't been discovered yet.
Second: It seems I'm strong enough to compete with the Mithril rank, according to them.
Three: It seems we're in the year 210, so there should be two years left until Nazarick appears (I asked Chat GBT about the date).
I learned something else that made me happy and it's something interesting.
When we or they were eating, I checked my state out of curiosity and this is what appeared:
Name: Velzard
Age (Looks in twenties)

Hp: 20500 !
Ep: 10660 !
Mp: 8000 !

(For those who do not know, EP is the value of existence, such as strength, endurance, agility, etc.)
Yes my stats have improved! It seems like the more monsters and humans I kill or the more battles I fight the stronger I get. It's like a system even though there are no levels or missions.
"Upon closer inspection, I see the difference between me and the original Velzard. My Ep is barely over 10,000, and the original Velzard's Ep is probably 90 million, depending on how strong she is than Veldora.
"I'm almost equal to Rimuru just by birth," she said with a little feeling of disappointed ."
"No, I shouldn't be sad. I can become stronger, maybe even stronger than the original Vizard. It seems that the skill creation can improve.
I imagine myself from now on using Azathoth to prey on my enemies. Hehe."
She said with stars in her eyes. "But I shouldn't dream too much. I still have a long way to go to achieve that goal. Now I have to create a practical skill that I will need for a long time."
She thought a lot about the appropriate skill until she knew what was appropriate.
"Yes, of course, rimuru's gluttony! I can get more stronger by devouring, and I can also obtain magic and skills from the target.
This is simply the perfect skill!" As soon as the idea came to her, she tried to create it, only to be met with a painful slap in the face in reality.
«Unique skill 'Gluttony' cannot be crafted. Please upgrade 'Skill's Creation' to succeed.»
A screen appeared that shattered her dreams immediately.
"What? Why?! Is the unique skill higher than A+? If so, what is its rank? What is the rank of the existing skills even?"
Then to her surprise, the system or whatever this is, answered her.
«Skills fall into the following ranks:
F-rank:very weak
E-rank:weak
D-rank:below average
C-rank:average
B-rank:above average
A-rank:strong
A+-rank:very strong
S-rank:Equal to 9th level magic in Nazarick
S+-rank:Equal to 10th level magic in Nazarick
unique skill:(don't need an introduction).»
"Ah, I see, now I understand, but how do I develop this skill?"
she asked, only to be met with silence. "...Of course you won't answer. What did you expect?" She sighed in disappointment
"It doesn't matter, since I can't make a unique skill (yet), I can at least make a poor copy of it."
I thought of a skill that was close to it in performance, I thought about it a lot until
"What about the copy skill? It should have a similar effect. Well, let's try it. I have nothing to lose."
Once she made her decision, she used her Skill Creation skill to create a copy skill, quickly decreasing her mana points.
Mp:8000🔻
Mp:7000🔻
Mp:5500🔻
Mp:4000🔻
«A+rank 'Copy' skill has obtained»
"Dude, that took half of my mana! At least it worked, well sort of," she said with a weird smile as she read the skill description.
Copy: Enables you to copy skills and any type of magic of any rank as long as the user is exposed to it directly or observes and analyzes it for a long period of time.
"This is very powerful but also dangerous. If I wanted to get something powerful, I would risk my life. Weak skills are of no use to me except for variety, but they have potential, so I don't regret them."
"Since I don't need sleep, I will train my ice magic."
And so, Velzard spent the whole night strengthening her control over her magic and discovering its full potential.
After hours of training, dawn broke, announcing the beginning of a new day and the end of her first day in this world.
