Chapter 117 Attribute Value Monster
Aqua's collapse and recovery are always just a matter of a moment. After looking up and seeing the boy's serious face, she realized that as a reliable goddess, she shouldn't show such a useless expression, so she immediately forced herself to cheer up.
"Ah, I don't know what to do. I was just joking. Broly, don't worry. Leave everything to my great water goddess, Aqua."
As she spoke such boastful words, Aqua noticed an old man dressed as a religious follower sitting on a table not far behind the boy. A sudden idea struck her, and her eyes lit up.
"I've got an idea! I'm the great goddess, and I have many devout followers in this world. As long as I reveal my identity, I'll quickly receive their offerings!"
As Aqua said this, she told Broly to stay in his place and not move, and then confidently walked over to the old man dressed as a believer.
"Devout believer, you must have heard the goddess's call. Indeed, it is I who have summoned you, the goddess Aqua, worshipped by the Axis Cult. Now, this goddess urgently needs some money, so please offer me some!"
The old man looked at the incredibly confident young woman in front of him, scratched his face, and then took out the black crystal from his pocket, which belonged to a devout follower of the Church of Eris.
"I'm sorry, I'm not a follower of the Axis religion, I'm a follower of Lord Eris."
Upon hearing this, even Broly could sense an awkward atmosphere spreading outwards.
Aqua: "..."
He bit his lip, his big toe fidgeting restlessly inside his shoe, as if trying to dig out a three-bedroom apartment.
"However, although I am not a follower of the Axis religion, I can see that you are in distress because you don't have the money to pay the registration fee."
"Well, consider this money as an old man's donation to you young people. Lady Eris, the goddess of fortune, said that we should help those in need."
As the old man spoke, he took out some coins and handed them to Aqua.
"Young lady, it is good to believe in the goddess, but it is wrong of you to regard yourself as the goddess. May Lord Eris protect you and prevent you from being punished by the water goddess you worship."
The old man performed an Eris prayer and then got up and left.
"I was given charity by a follower of my goddess, but when I told the truth that I was the goddess, no one believed me..."
Aqua returned with the money, her eyes brimming with tears. Broly, seeing her devastated state, didn't know what to say to comfort her.
After thinking for a moment, he changed the subject and said, "Anyway, we have the money to pay the registration fee now, right?"

"Um."
Wiping away her tears, Aqua rallied her spirits.
"Let's solve the registration problem first. Consider this money as a loan from a younger believer. I will pay it back when I have the money."
As Aqua spoke, she led Broly back to the registration counter. Luna, the receptionist from the Adventurers' Guild, witnessed the entire scene of Aqua receiving the registration fee and couldn't help but feel that it was truly not easy for a young woman to support her younger brother.
After Aqua paid the registration fee, she took out the registration card again.
"Then let me explain again. Adventurers have various professions, and this registration card can record how many raids an adventurer has carried out."
As you level up, you'll also receive points to learn skills, so try to level up as much as possible after you get them.
Alright, please place your hands on the crystal ball here. It will confirm the attribute values of the person who is initially registering.
Afterwards, the two of you can choose a suitable profession to change jobs based on your own attributes.
"Then let me go first."
Aqua felt that as an adult, she should set an example for children who depend on her, so she was the first to step forward and place her hand on the crystal ball.
"Wow, that's amazing. Apart from his intelligence being far below average and his luck being slightly worse than that of an average person, all his other attribute values are significantly higher than average."
Luna exclaimed in surprise, shocked by the extraordinary values that Aqua had displayed.
"What? Does this mean I'm really amazing?"
They're more than just impressive; they're downright deceiving.
Who would believe that this is a property that someone who can't even afford the registration fee could possess?
"Of course it's amazing. Apart from the mage profession, which requires a high level of intelligence, you can take up any other profession, including high-level professions such as Crusader Knight, Sword Master, and High Priest."
The waiter's exclamation drew the attention of other adventurers in the Adventurers' Guild. Aqua's registration was as rare as a phoenix emerging from a chicken coop.
"Although it's a bit of a shame that there isn't a goddess as a profession, I would choose to become a high priest."
"High Priest, huh? He's skilled in all healing and support magic, and possesses enough power to be a vanguard—truly a versatile profession."
"I have to be a jack-of-all-trades to take care of this child."
Aqua crossed her arms and suddenly realized that the feeling of being the center of attention was actually quite nice.
"Alright, Broly, it's your turn. Don't feel too much pressure, I'm here for you."
Aqua puffed out her chest and pushed the boy next to her forward.
[Power of Battle, Stage Three]
When Broly placed his hand on the crystal ball, this message suddenly popped into his mind.
"Wait, what's this?!"
The waitress's eyes widened; even after witnessing Aqua's extraordinary attribute values, she was still shocked.
"Except for intelligence and luck, which are only average, all other attribute values are... are maxed out! How is this possible?!"
In this world, attributes are something that can be seen, but it's unlikely that anyone's attribute value will show MAX.
"So, is Broly's situation worse than mine?"
Aqua couldn't help but ask.
"Nobody knows exactly what the maximum attribute value is, but what is certain is that this child, like you, can take up any profession except those that require high intelligence. He can even become a mage, but he just doesn't have the talent."
As she spoke, Luna handed the registration card to Broly, smiling kindly as she asked, "Little brother, what profession do you wish to pursue? Is it like your sister's—a high priest?"
Broly took the registered professional card, thought for a moment, and asked, "Are there any professions that make it easier to find a wife?"
Waitress: "???"
"Haha, such a young age, yet so talented."
Upon hearing this, a group of male adventurers burst into laughter.
"If the little brother is willing to join his sister's team, his sister wouldn't mind being your wife."
One female adventurer said this.
"He's still a child!"
This prompted Aqua to quickly protect Broly, just like a mother hen protecting her chicks.
