I Became the Handyman That the Heroines Are Obsessed With

Episode 44 – There was another ability I didn’t know about?

“After confirming that you came to this world, I prepared the ability to give you. That ability is the ability you currently have, ‘the ability to fix everything.’ “I think you know this well.”

I was still just staring blankly at Epirina’s face.

She was explaining the abilities I have, and this is a fact I also know.

But what I’m most curious about right now is about another ability that resides in my soul.

I was very curious about what other abilities came to reside in my soul.

“Then what are the other abilities that reside in my soul?”

“Another ability given to you is ‘the ability to gain favor from others.'”

“The ability to gain favor… “This?”

The name of the ability that came from Epirina’s mouth.

It is said that it is the ability to gain the favor of the other person.

Just looking at the content, I think it is a specialized ability to gain favor from others.

But what is the connection between this ability to fix everything and the ability to gain favor from others?

I couldn’t understand what kind of synergy these two abilities created to create this current situation.

The only person who knew all this well was Epirina.

I looked at Epirina and stared into her eyes.

“Ha. Is it so. Perhaps there are a lot of things you don’t understand, so you’re asking me to explain them, right? “I know what you want, so won’t you stop staring at me?”

As I continued to look into her eyes, Epitrina blushed slightly and showed an embarrassed reaction.

Now that I was able to get what I wanted from her, she stopped looking into her eyes.

“Okay. Now, let me start explaining in earnest. “It may be a bit of a long story, but I still hope you’ll listen to the end.”

“Okay, so please explain. “Because I want to know what happened to me.”

Epitrina looked at my firm resolve and thought for a moment, then she opened her mouth and began to explain to me what had happened.

“After you died in an unexpected accident while living in the other world, I gave you a chance to live again in the world under my control. And in the process, I gave you an ability as a gift.”

“That is the ‘power to fix everything’, the so-called ‘repair’ ability that I have now and know how to use.”

“That’s right. But there was one thing I missed during your past life.”

“Yes?”

I was surprised by Epirina’s words. No, there was something she missed during my past life?

“Don’t be alarmed, just keep listening.”

“Oh, yes.”

I kept quiet about Epirina’s words and began to continue listening to her explanation.

“Okay. There’s a lot I have to say, so I hope you’ll ask questions later after everything has been explained. Then, let me continue the explanation. You may remember that the goddess who presides over another world died after being caught up in her summoning ritual while selecting a hero. Right?”

I nodded at Epirina’s words. How could I forget that?

“Did I tell you that the Lord intervened in the process of reincarnating you?”

This is what she told me when we first met.

He said that the Lord God took pity on me and gave me a chance to live a new life.

“I also found out late in the process of investigating what happened to you, that the Lord placed a special ability in your soul.”

I was able to realize one fact that the being called Lord had imbued my soul with a special ability.

“So, what is that ability?”

Ephirina responded to my words by nodding her head.

Huh, then the ability given to me by the being called Jusin was ‘the ability to gain favor from others.’

But what kind of synergy effect did it create that led to the current situation?

I looked at Epirina and waited for her to open her mouth.

“The ability you have been given, the ability to be liked by others, does not discriminate between people and things.”

“Huh?”

What does that mean? What does it mean to be liked regardless of people or things?

“You know it too. Bread with the ability to fix everything. “People who ate it started to become strangely obsessed with bread, right?”

Epitrina also seemed to know well about the bread incident that occurred on earth.

Even the fact that I used my abilities to make that bread.

“I’m not saying it’s wrong, so don’t be afraid. Anyway, after that incident, you met Bergen Steiler, Chancellor of the Gelebrio Empire, and then Regina Blasteria, Chancellor of the Glesius Academy. Oh, and before that, I also met Marcus Bleas, the owner of Bleas Merchant Marine.”

I knew very well who she was talking about. These are all people I became involved with when I began using my abilities.

“What these people have in common is that they are people who have benefited from your abilities, but they have no intention of abusing your abilities. Isn’t it strange how people can be strangely kind to you? “

It was only then that I realized what was wrong with Epitrina’s words.

“And, Reina Eldinar. She, the golden daughter of the Duke of El Dinar’s family, also changed her attitude after receiving help from your abilities. Of course, he harassed you by touching your body and shaking it back and forth, but why did you suddenly become so polite to the person who hit you on the head?”

“I see. “Why is that?”

“That’s because the two abilities in your soul worked together.”

Epitri I summoned one of her blackboards in the air and began writing down her formula.

“Now, look here. The favorability rating gained when person A helps person B is usually between 0.5 And 1. And when you use your abilities to help someone, the favorability rating you gain is roughly between 3 and 4. “It’s about 3 to 4 times the favorability that the average person gets.”

I began to focus on Epitrina’s explanation as I watched the formulas she wrote on her blackboard.

“Of course, this is the favorability you gain because you solved their predicament, so 3 to 4 is natural. However, this is where another ability you have comes into play.”

Epitrina added a new formula to her original formula, and the values she had calculated began to change.

The favorability rating of 3~4 written on the blackboard had changed to 12~-16.

It changed to a point where the favorability rating was four times higher than before.

“Because of your ability to gain likeability, you can get much higher likeability than others even if you do the same thing. However, what is important to note here is that this ability to gain favor from the other person does not activate immediately.”

“So, does this mean that the ability to win someone’s favor works over time?”

“That’s right. “It takes effect in 1 to 2 hours at the latest, and 5 to 10 minutes at the earliest.”

After listening to Epitrina’s explanation and thinking about it carefully, I realized that it was about 5 minutes before Raina’s behavior changed.

She disappeared for a while and came back for about 5 minutes.

“So, you’re saying all of this happened because of your ability to be liked?”

“That’s right. Because of the goodwill you gain from them, they will try to avoid being hated or negatively evaluated by you, even lying if necessary in the process.”

“So, are you saying that the President and the Prime Minister lied?”

“Don’t worry, those two people didn’t lie.”

I breathed a sigh of relief at Epirina’s words.

I am enjoying good benefits, but it would be very disappointing if I could not enjoy them.

“So, who is the person who lied?”

“Reina Eldinar. “She made excuses to somehow justify her own actions by citing her ‘curse’ to you.”

“Hmm.”

I thought something was strange.

There is no way that you can become involved with someone who has been cursed in succession.

“So, Reina isn’t the one under the curse?”

“That’s right.”

“Then why did you do that? “I think I just need to tell the truth.”

“Reina herself has the pride unique to nobles who ‘don’t want to admit the truth,’ and as I said before, she lied on purpose to avoid making you hate her.”

In the end, it seems that Raina was an unavoidable noblewoman.

However, thanks to her, I was able to avoid the students’ persistent questions about bread.

I am willing to forgive Raina as much as I can just for helping me avoid that annoying thing.

If not, I would have been harassed by students for days on end.

“Ugh. “If I had just told the truth, she would have forgiven me.”

“So, are you going to become friends with her again?”

“No. “I don’t know if she reveals all the truth about her and approaches me honestly, but in this situation, wouldn’t it be better to just stay in a relationship if it hurts?”

That way, Raina will constantly reflect on her own mistakes and she will finally realize what she did wrong.

If she realizes her own mistakes and sincerely asks for her forgiveness, I can forgive her as much as I want.

If I move on without forgiving, I may feel better, but I may also end up at odds with the Eldinar family.

Keep in mind, in order to live a long and slender life, you must avoid making enemies as much as possible.

“Thank you anyway. “Thanks to Epirina, I can go back feeling much lighter.”

“I’m glad it was helpful.”

As I was about to say goodbye to Epirina and say goodbye, I almost missed the most important thing.

I had to find a way to avoid or eliminate the side effects of another ability given to me.

“Ah, but I forgot the most important thing. So, how can you avoid the side effects of your ability to be liked as much as possible? “Is there a way to get rid of it?”

“If the ability to gain favor is something I gave you, you can take it back, but unfortunately, that ability was given by the Lord, so it is outside of my jurisdiction. Instead, we can make the side effects of our ability to be liked as minimal as possible.”

Then she placed her hand on my head, and I felt warm energy flowing into my body from her hand.

“From now on, unless you pick up a hammer and hit someone on the head, the side effect of the ability to gain favor will not occur. Unless your life is in danger, don’t hit someone’s head with a hammer. “Okay?”

I nodded at Epirina’s words.

“Then let’s see later. “I hope we will be a little closer then than we are now.”

She said goodbye to me and disappeared.

I couldn’t hear the last words clearly, but I guess they aren’t bad words.

In that way, I was able to come out of the prayer room feeling relieved.
