I Enslaved The Goddess Who Summoned Me

Chapter 3: Stats And Goddess

"To see your stats, you can call your status. Your level along your main skill will be displayed. Use your status point however you want but wisely." Khione said.

"Status." I called out to my status.

"Your Main Skill is the very first ability you acquire after the awakening process," Khione explained. "Its rank serves as a marker of your potential, with SSS-Rank standing as the pinnacle. Additional skills can be acquired through training or by using Skill Books, though mastering a new one proves to be quite challenging. The skill's level is denoted beside its name; the higher the level, the more effective and potent the skill becomes. Your main level is prominently displayed at the top, just below your name. Advancement in levels comes from battling, training, and defeating the various monsters you encounter. Naturally, we'll assist you in this aspect, ensuring your rapid improvement."

Absorbing Khione's words, I glanced once more at the description of my No-Name skill.

It was intriguing.

Truthfully, it seemed rather lackluster due to its low success rate, but...

"Are you doing well, Nathan?" a gentle voice asked.

I pivoted to find my elder step-sister, Sienna Parker, standing nearby.

"Oh, uh, somewhat?" I responded with a touch of ambiguity.

Sienna and I shared an odd relationship, much like the one with Siara, incidentally.

We'd become step-siblings seemingly out of the blue and seldom engaged in conversation. Yet, at least Sienna made an effort, albeit while keeping her distance. I suspect—no, I'm certain—she caught glimpses of the real me beneath my facade. She possessed sharp eyes.

Things were even more strained with Siara, my younger step-sister who, mind you, was barely a few months my junior. She harbored a crush on Jason and engaged in a fierce competition for his attention, vying with all the other girls, including Courtney.

I attempted to strike up conversations with her, noting her more approachable demeanor compared to her elder sister's, but alas, she was firmly fixated on that cringe-inducing 3D protagonist, Jason Spencer so I gave up on making her my girlfriend. There was no way I could compete with Jason except if I did some surgery on my face and changed my speech into cringe-worthy protagonist-like.

Yeah, no thanks, I will remain a mob.

Thinking about something, I asked Sienna. "Uh can I see your status?"

Sienna nodded contrary to what I expected.

Are you kidding me?

She clearly outclassed me in every stat.

It was downright embarrassing to see her superior strength, speed, and stamina.

What was this unfairness?

It felt like some divine prankster had bestowed upon me these lousy stats.

Was it because I had an E-Rank as my Main Skill?

"And you?" Sienna asked.

"Nothing impressive, just an E-Rank for my Main Skill," I replied with a nonchalant shrug.

Sienna, on the other hand, was truly blessed with her SS-Rank.

Perhaps from my tone, Sienna picked up that I wasn't keen on flaunting my pitiful stats, so she simply nodded politely.

Yeah, it wasn't like those scenes from Japanese manga.

Real step-sibling relationships were undeniably awkward.

At least Sienna made an effort to converse with me, unlike Siara who was giggling around with Jason.

He was surrounded by girls who seemed to have turned off their brains after getting isekai'd.

It often happens in Isekai animes.

Just the thought of Sienna's impressive stats with her SS-Rank Skill made me shudder to consider what Jason's must be like with his Protagonist Skill and aura.

Once again, life's unfairness hit me like a ton of bricks.

Luck certainly played a role, but when luck wasn't on your side, you had to forge your own.

I decided to invest all 20 of my Skill Points into my Luck stats.

And it didn't end there; I could even reallocate points from my other stats to further boost my Luck.

"Before we proceed to the palace, we've prepared suitable attire for you to be warmly received by the Emperor and the capital's populace. They're eagerly awaiting the parade and your arrival," Khione announced with a smile.

She sure had a knack for acting.

That seemingly genuine smile of hers was nothing but a facade.

I would have almost believed it if not for the contemptuous look she gave me upon seeing my E-Rank Skill.

"A parade?" Amelia echoed, clearly taken aback.

"Yes, let's not dawdle," Khione urged, gesturing to her knights, who promptly escorted us out.

As everyone began to filter out one by one, I halted my steps at the door leading outside.

"Nathan?" Teacher Amelia glanced at me, puzzled.

I offered her a smile. "Just need some advice from the Goddess. I'll catch up with you all later. Please go ahead."

"Alright...but do be careful," Ms. Carter cautioned, her wariness visible.

The knight gave me a brief look before exiting and closing the door behind them, leaving me alone in the hall with the Goddess, who stood by the altar, her gaze fixed upon it.

I couldn't discern her expression.

"Do you require something, Hero Nathan?" She asked without turning around.

"Oh, you remember my name? I was under the impression you couldn't care less about Heroes with a Skill of D-Rank or lower, Goddess Khione," I said with a laugh, the sound echoing through the hall.

Khione slowly pivoted, a gentle smile gracing her features. "I apologize if there was any misunderstanding, Hero Nathan. All Heroes hold significance to me."

With her truly divine beauty, she was quite convincing, I had to admit. But I wasn't like those naive fellows. My mindset was different, without a hint of arrogance.

My safety above everything else.

And at present, my safety was under threat in this damn fantasy world teeming with monsters and demons, and I was utterly defenseless against them with those stats.

If I didn't take risks now, I might as well resign myself to being devoured alive by creatures of the dark.

Between taking a risk against a hot Goddess or a monster, the choice was quickly made.

"Well, let's say I believe you. I'm currently in a great pinch because of my stats so can you do me a favor?" I asked with a smile.
