第二話 スキルツリー
「クソ親父め......酷い目に遭った」
顔が割れれば面倒なことになりかねないため、馬車を用いてエドヴァン家の館のある街からは離れ、その隣街である都市ロンダルムまで来ていた。
エドヴァン伯爵領からは出ていないものの、特に俺の顔が隣街の領民にまで広まっているわけではない。
馬車の遠出にも場所と時間が掛かる。
しばらくは、この街を拠点に生活することになるだろう。
ただ、前世の記憶が戻った俺としては、正直貴族の暮らしはごめんであった。
この世界の貴族は権力が強いが、それは強者としての義務を負っているためだ。
自由に旅をしながら生きていた方がよっぽど気楽に暮らせるだろう。
「せっかく手に入れた〈マジックワールド〉の世界......隅々まで自由に堪能させてもらわないとな」
ただ、ゲームの設定とこの世界の歴史や風土は全く違う。
この辺りはまた追々調べていく必要がありそうだ。
これが一番楽しみだ。ただ、ここの仕様が変わっていたら、かなりの痛手になる。
知らない間にアプデされていて、重騎士の壊れ性能がなくなっていたらとんでもない事態だ。
貴族次期当主の立場であれば、周囲に説明のできない奇行に奔走することはできなかっただろう。
「やるべきことはいくらでもある。なんだ、丁度いいじゃないか」
それに、父親だってあんな奴だとは思っていなかった。
いや、前世の記憶を取り戻して価値観が広くなった今としては、身勝手で無茶ばかり口にして、他人に厳しく自分に甘い男だったと認識できる。
次期当主となったマリスも、変わり者だとは知っていたが、あんな奴ではなかったはずだ。
俺を見て、嘲笑っていた。
覚えはないが、恨みでも買っていたのだろうか。
俺は窓の外を見て、溜め息を漏らした。
「......さようなら、母上、父上」
「よし、しんみりタイム終わり! クソ親父の千倍強くなって、見返してやらないとな」
何せこっちにはそれだけの知識という武器がある。
【エルマ・エドヴァン】
クラス:重騎士
Lv :1
HP :10/10
MP :4/4
攻撃力:3+5
防御力:3+5
魔法力:5
素早さ:3
【装備】
〈下級兵の剣〉
〈鉄の鎧〉
【特性スキル】
改めて自分のステータスを確認する。
〈下級兵の剣〉と〈鉄の鎧〉は、宿に来る途中で適当に見繕ったものだ。
俺は〈ステータス〉へと手を触れる。
「スキルツリー画面っと......」
〈ステータス〉にはもう一つの画面がある。
[残りスキルポイント:5]
〈重鎧の誓い[0/100]〉
〈防御力上昇[0/50]〉
〈初級剣術[0/50]〉
スキルツリーはクラス固定のものと、キャラメイク時にランダムで手に入るものの二種類がある。
この中で固定は〈重鎧の誓い〉だけだ。
[残りスキルポイント:0]
〈重鎧の誓い[5/100]〉【+5】
スキルツリーを最大にするまで最短でも【Lv:96】まで掛かるのだ。
しょうもないステータスアップや、他クラスの劣化スキルツリーの〈初級剣術〉に振っている余裕はない。
【〈重鎧の誓い〉が[2/100]になったため、通常スキル〈城壁返し〉を取得しました。】
【〈重鎧の誓い〉が[5/100]になったため、〈防御力:+10〉を取得しました。】
よし来た。
俺はニヤリと笑った。
〈城壁返し〉【通常スキル】
相手の近接攻撃の直撃を受けてダメージを封殺できた場合、スキル使用者の防御力に応じたダメージを与えることができる。
ダメージ封殺とは、こちらの防御力が上回っており、ダメージを与えられなかった状況のことだ。
もっとも〈マジックワールド〉のダメージ計算式は基本的に【〈ダメージ〉=〈攻撃力〉-〈防御力〉/2】となっている。
要するに完封状態を出すことは難しく、格下相手にしか通用しない。
Ch 2
"Shitty fucking dad... What a heartless thing to do.."
To avoid troublesome things happening from my face being discovered, I had come to the neighboring city of Rondalm, away from the city where the Edvan Household's mansion was located by riding a carriage.
And since I don't go out from the Edvan County's territory, there's no way my face would spread to the people from the neighboring towns.
Also, traveling long distances in a carriage needs a lot of space and time.
For a while, I guess, I'll make this city my base and live here.
However, now that the memories of my previous life had returned, to me, living as a nobleman is a big no.
It's true that this world's nobility had a strong powerful influence but, that's because they had an obligation as one to fulfill.
But for me, living a carefree life while traveling around here and there would be the most ideal.
"But after finally being reincarnated into the game <Magic World>... I need to fully enjoy this situation and freely explore every nook and cranny of this world."
But the thing is... Compared to the game setting, this world's history and topography are completely different. Neither the names of countries and places match as well. The culture is also quite different. I guess I need to gradually investigate areas one after another again, huh..
This is the fun part I've been looking forward to.
However, if the class' specs are different here, it'd really deal quite a blow to me.
It would be a very terrible situation if the broken abilities of the Heavy Knight class had been updated without me knowing.
Viewing the situation from the standpoint of the next head of the family, I could not exactly be busy minding how to explain my eccentric activities to the surrounding people.
"There's a lot of things that need to be done, huh.. So what, isn't it perfectly fine?"
Still, I didn't think my father was that kind of person.
Nah, now that I have regained the memories of my previous life and developed a broader sense of values, I can see that he was a greedy, irresponsible man who was harsh on others while being kind to himself. Perhaps he's like that because the Edvan County Household didn't have anyone who could give a piece of mind about the deeds of the head of the family.
I knew that Maris, who had become the next head of the Edvan Household, was an eccentric girl, but originally, she wasn't like that.
Everytime she sees me, she'd sneer.
I don't have any memories of it, but she seems to hold a grudge against me.
I looked out the window and let out a sigh.
"Farewell, Mother, Father."
"Okay! Gloomy story time's over! If I have to hand my shitty father his ass, I have to be a thousand times stronger than him!"
After all, I've got this much knowledge in my arsenal, so I have to fully exploit it.

[(Equipment)] 
<Inferior Soldier's Sword> 
<Iron Armor> 
[(Special Skill)] 
Those were displayed as I checked my status once again.
The <Inferior Soldier's Sword> and<Iron Armor> were items I chose that seemed suitable while on the way to this inn. At the very least those items were the minimum I could obtain given the situation. After all, weapons that are stronger than one's status would only get in the way as they were unusable. These items were the limit I can get at the moment.
I touched the screen of my <Status> with my fingers.
"Let's see.. Skill Tree..."
<Status> also had another feature called the Skill Tree.
[Remaining Skill Points:5]
<Vow of the Heavy Armor[0/100]> 
<Increased Defense[0/50]> 
<Novice Swordsmanship[0/50]> 
There are two types of skill trees: those that are class-specific and those that are acquired at random when you create your character.
And among my skill trees, the only class-specific skill tree that I have is the<Vow of the Heavy Armor> . It is a skill tree exclusive only for the Heavy Knight, and was said to be the weakest joke-skill tree to exist.
[Remaining Skill Points:0]
<Vow of the Heavy Armor[5/100]> [(+5)] 
And, if you wanted to max out your skill tree, you had to be[(Lv:95)] in order to do so.
You can't afford to waste your skill points to useless status ups or to any degraded skill trees like <Novice Swordsmanship> .
[(<Vow of the Heavy Armor> has been increased to [2/100]. Normal Skill<Rampart Return> has been acquired.)] 
[(<Vow of the Heavy Armor> has been increased to [5/100],<DEF:+10> has been acquired.)] 
Nice! I got it!
I grinned and laughed as I read the displayed message.
<Rampart Return> [(Normal Skill)] 
If the skill user took a direct hit from an opponent's close-ranged attack and blocked off the damage, damage can be inflicted to the opponent based on the skill user's defense.
When a damage is blocked off, it means that the skill user's defense is much higher than the enemy and they couldn't even do as much as to scratch you.
In simpler terms, the formula to calculate for the damage taken in <Magic World> would be[(<Damage> =<Attack Power> -<Defensive Power> / 2)] .
In short, it would be difficult to completely block off the damage and would only work when the enemy is lower leveled. However, this is where the bonus skill points I've allocated into my<Vow of the Heavy Armor> comes in handy.
