Rare Skills refer to unique, high-grade skills distinct from the typical types.
If a skill's effect is both uncommon and powerful, it is classified as Rare.
Most adventurers' skills tend to follow patterns:
Elves: magic amplification
Dwarves: strength reinforcement
Beastmen: physical stat boosts
Because of this, gods are naturally drawn to mortals who awaken Rare Skills.
Like hungry gamblers, they scramble to recruit them into their Familia.
After all—gods indulge their player instincts to the fullest.

Thanks to the boost from Summoning Magic—
Captain Alise and Vice-Captain Kaguya had both skyrocketed to Lv.6!
Another who advanced two levels was [Cunning Mouse] Lila —
from Lv.3 → Lv.5.
The remaining seven members each rose by one level.
Summary of the Justice Maiden Squad:
2x Lv.6: Alise, Kaguya
7x Lv.5
1x Lv.4 (Noin)
Their overall combat power now surpassed even the Ganesha Familia!
"All right. I'm only Lv.2 right now, so this is the best I can give you,"
Raven explained, looking at the parchments with satisfaction.
"But once I level up, I might be able to give you another push."
"Oh, and Alfia is already Lv.8."
"My goal's simple: I want all of you to become Lv.7 champions."
He said it lightly, but his eyes shone with conviction.
After all—their strength was his strength.
"Lv.8…?" Alise's eyes widened in disbelief. "That's… unbelievable."
Alfia remained silent, flipping a page of her book without a glance.
"All right. I'm running low on mana and mental energy. I'll be counting on your performance tomorrow."
Just as Raven was about to dismiss them—
Bang!
The door burst open.
"Raven-kun, I'm home!!"
Hestia dove straight into Raven's embrace, arms wide open.
She snuggled into his chest, rubbing her cheek fondly against him.
Raven smiled and gently patted her head. "Welcome back, Lady Hestia."
"Hello, Lady Hestia," Alise greeted respectfully.
The other girls followed in unison:
"Hello, Lady Hestia."
Hearing that, Hestia blinked, tilting her head to peek into the room.
On the bed sat nine girls she had never seen before.
"EHHH?!"
Hestia's eyes blazed with suspicion.
"Ra-ven-kuuuuun!!! What is the meaning of this?!"
Raven scratched his head calmly.
"It's my Summoning Magic."
"If you don't believe me, check these ability sheets."
Hestia's expression remained suspicious as she picked up the parchments.
She had descended to the Lower World only three years ago—
So she didn't immediately recognize the crest of the Astraea Familia, which had fallen five years ago.
But as she scanned the status charts—her jaw dropped.
"Na…ni?!"
"Two Lv.6s and seven Lv.5s?!"
"This emblem… Wait—are they Astraea's old Familia?!"
She had clearly spotted the sword-and-wing insignia stamped on each parchment.
"Yes, Lady Hestia," Alise bowed with grace. "I am Alise Lovell, Captain of the former Astraea Familia."
"I'm Kaguya Itsuki," she followed with another bow.
"I'm Lila. It's an honor to meet you," the third greeted politely.
After brief introductions and an explanation of what happened—
Hestia finally accepted them.
Raven looked around at the group and gave a nod.
"Well then… see you all tomorrow."
With a single thought, he severed the magic connection fueling the summons.
Their forms shimmered—
And disappeared into thin air.
The mana returned to Raven's body, leaving only Alfia in the room.
"Raven-kun, I think you're amazing. I really love you~"
Hestia beamed with affection, clinging to him tightly.
Day one: Raven summoned Lv.8 Alfia.
Day two: He summoned a whole team of elite adventurers.
With that kind of power—
Their faction was already top-tier in Orario.
Even if everyone he summoned was a girl—
Hestia didn't mind.
Because it was all thanks to Raven's rare magic.
