Contract (5)
"Is this the contract?"
"Right, is there anything strange?"
"No, I'm just asking to be sure"
Saintes smiled at my answer.
After I read it many times I can't believe that this is a contract given by the saintess, the contract roughly has points like this
1. As long as it is still within the contract period, Saintess will not injure the second party and will provide financial and non-financial support to the second party.
2. Second parties are prohibited from harming the saintess.
3. The second party must not disrupt the relationship between the empire and other kingdoms.
4. The second party must not commit acts of violence against other races without reason.
5. During the training period, the second party must participate in the hunt.
6. The second party must participate in the war against the gods.
7. If the second party manages to survive the war, the saintess must free the second party from the divine power that binds the soul.
8. If the second party manages to survive the war against the gods who invaded this world, then the second party is free from everything related to the saintess and can decide to stay in this world or move to another world.
If the second party succeeds in reaching point 8 then this contract will be automatically terminated.
Huh, quite long isn't it? But what makes me surprised is that this contract is more likely to favor the second party, people who summoned from another world.
But there is one important point that makes me lost for words, namely "stay in this world or move to another world".
"..."
Can...
Can i come back to my world?
"If you think you can get away from this contract you are very wrong, you can never break this contract because this is a divine contract. If you violate this contract, it will not be your physical body that bears the brunt of the damage, but your soul you know." The saintess glanced at me for a moment then continued her words
"And also some of you are thinking why is this contract more profitable for you?, because I don't want to make you feel like you are being enslaved. You fight for the people who live in this world. At least I have to make you guys comfortable while you're training here." The saintess smiled warmly after saying that
"Train? are you going to teach us how to use magic?" Some random dudes raising his hand, his face was sweaty and i see his hand is shaking.
"Hmm, I won't teach you directly, rather I will ask someone from the magic tower to teach you, and because you have agreed to the contract I will answer your questions about the system."
Finally the answer that people have been waiting for will be answered by the saintess
The saintess closed her eyes for a moment then smiled while tilting her head "The answer is... No"
...Eh?
What?
Have we been hit by a scam? Then what is this screen floating in front of me? But when someone tried to raise their hand, Saintess immediately continued
"If you ask the original inhabitants of this world, they will definitely be confused by what you say, but especially for you. I have implemented something like a system into your soul. Now, try saying "status"."
"STATUS!" Suddenly the fat man from before shouted very loudly. I covered my face with one hand to hide my expression
Ahhh...! Isn't he embarrassed to shout those words in public! God dammit! do I have to try saying it too?
The scream made everyone startled and glanced at the fat man, the man seemed embarrassed and lowered his head but, why was he crying?
People started saying status window and they seemed happy with the existence of the system in this world, the saintess just smiled from the stage looking at the people who were happy just because of this.
"Status."
Embarrassed, I said those words in a fairly low tone and I looked at the information on the screen in front of me.

I seem to know the reason why the class is still empty, it seems like it will be filled if I have talent in a certain field. But what is trait? and also Mana control? How can i have that kind of skill? I don't understand what the meaning of this.
"If you have all seen your respective statuses, I will explain several things related to class and Trait." The saintess paused for a moment, then continued her words
"Class is the classification of your character into categories such as Magician and Swordsman. Simply put, if you are talented at using a sword then you will have to chose if you want become a swordsman or a paladin, but if you are skilled at sensing mana and composing spells then you are a magician."
It turns out that way, it seems like the saintess's explanation about Class is not much different from the RPG games circulating on my planet.
"It's different with traits, all living creatures have traits, even if you don't come from this world, you still have traits. No matter what kind of world or planet you live on, you definitely have your own unique traits. It's just that your trait can only be active if your world follows the "game"."
Now I understand what is called this trait, then what does my Space Control trait mean? And also the saintess mentioned the word game, what is that mean?
"You are now in the world that follows the "game", it seems that your trait has become active. We can find out our traits by closing our eyes and imagining who we really are. It could be said that traits are a person's true identity."
So what does my identity as Space Control mean? It turns out the trait is more complicated than I thought. The saintess started to smile and said
"Okay, since we have entered into a contract, it's best for you to go back today and rest in your respective rooms. I see that you are very tired because your bodies have not adapted well, for the next two days there will be no agenda for you, I hope you get used to being here and get to know each other because in the future you will have to work together a lot. I thank you for willing to collaborate with me."
The Saintess started walking off the stage followed by 3 knights who seemed to be her personal bodyguards.
Seeing people starting to walk out of the field, I followed them slowly from behind.
...This is a long day
