Chapter 30
The arm of the priest moves quickly.
I underwent the transference from the priest after the meal.
The results of ones first transference is a record to be commemorated.
The piece of paper laid on the table was lavishly decorated with gold-leaf.
On that extravagant piece of paper, the priest was writing words down without any hesitant strokes.
His eyes were half-closed, and didnt seem to be focusing on anything.
The priests arm suddenly stopped after writing the last line of the status.
He slowly opened his eyes.
He dropped his gaze to the paper on the table then, he opened his eyes wide.
This, this is!
The priest leaned over the paper, moving his eyes and neck at an amazing speed, looking over the paper over and over again.
When he finished, he blinked tightly, pinched the bridge of his nose and shook his head over and over, checked over the paper once more, before leaning back into his chair.
Mn, thank you for the good reaction.
Fa, Father?
Alfred-tousan asked with a, as expected, worried face.
O, ohIts complete.
The transference went fine, it succeeded.
My goodness, I thought it might have failed for a moment, but it succeeded without a doubt.
It should have succeeded no, thats enough.
For now, take a look at this.
The priest signed the paper and displayed it in front of Dad.
Well, thenhuh?
Dad freezes.
Geez whats with you two? Is there something strange in Edgar-kuns statusehh!?
Mum freezes as well.
I also try to take a peek at the paper.
The contents are like this.

I suppose the at the beginning and end of each line and the that fill the spaces were used to prevent false data from being written.
Its similar to the receipt format I learned at my company in my previous life.
Theres only one other strange part, but that can wait until after I explain to Mum and Dad.
Putting that aside, Ive been troubled for a while.
In regards to how much of my status I should show.
In the end, I decided to not hide any of it.
One of the reasons is that it would be hard to raise my skills if I continued to hide the characteristics of [No Fatigue].
But more than that, Alfred-tousan and Julia-kaasan are trying to protect me with all their might I dont want to lie to those two.
Although I say that, I did waver a bit when the priest said it was possible to hide my skills.
But since I knew that the priest had the abnormal condition of being unable to tell anyone about the status he saw here, I figured that showing all of it to see how big a reaction it would cause wouldnt be a bad idea.
I got a bigger reaction than I had been expecting, so I do feel a little bad about it.
Err, so this is not a mistake, right?
Dad, who finally woke up from his stupor, said.
Yes. I can understand your feelings, but this is definitely the result of the Oracle.
The skills take up 4 lines, why is that?
Mum asks.
The skills in the bottom line represent his General skills. The second line from the bottom is for Master Class skills.
This much you should already know.
Y, yes both Julia and I have Master Class skills.
Ah, thats right.
Alfred-dono has [Spearmanship] and Julia-dono has [Fire Element Magic].
Its rare for both spouses to have Master Class skills.]
But what is going on with this childs skills? The bottom two lines are abnormally full, and Ive never heard of any of the skills in the top two lines.
NoFatigue? Appraisal?
The couple tilt their heads in unison, and the priest nodded solemnly.
The skills that are third from the bottom are called Legendary Class skills.
Wha-! Legendary!?
Eeeeeeh-!?
Mum and Dad were surprised.
According to the teachings passed down in the Samsara Temple, they are skills that the masters in the ranks of masters can attain only when they get some kind of good fortune.
Decipher the hidden information in all things?
Th-thats it! Occasionally Ed will know about something he shouldnt have learned yet, so thats why!
After hearing the priests words, Dad said that, taken aback.
As I thought, you had been concerned about that.
Was this also how he learned magic so fast? Uh-uh, that seems kind of wrong?
Julia-kaasan muttered while tilting her head.
The two of you, isnt it a bit too soon to be surprised?
The line of skills at the top is probably for Mythical Class skills, it can only be that.
M-mythical Class!?
Yes. Above even the Legendary Class with effects that transcend the principles of this world, a rare skill that can only be bestowed directly from the Gods. And to have two of them
[No Fatigue] and the other is written inunreadable characters.
Dad muttered with a frown.
Thats right. [Instant Interpretation] was not written in the characters of this world, but in Japanese.
Hmmm. Edgar-kun, do you have any ideas about this?
Or rather, to what level do you understand your own skills?
The priest asks me.
The General skills and Master Class skills I got on my own.
Ive had No Fatigue since I was born.
What kind of skill is [No Fatigue]? Ive been a priest for such a long time, but I have never heard of it.
I dont get tired. I dont need to sleep either.
You dont get tired? You said its fine to not sleep?
I did think that Edgar-kun had a lot of stamina for a small child, but to think it was because of a skill like this.
Mum muttered, looking slightly shocked.
Just wait, Ed knew about this but he didnt tell us?
Well, it is something that would be bad to carelessly mention, but how was Ed able to judge that it would be bad to carelessly mention the skill?
That is
I say, faltering.
HmmThat Divine Protection might play a part in this.
The priest says.
Look at this. The final line in his status.
This child was born with a strong blessing from Atrazenec-sama.
Saying this is a little. But even I, who have worked as a priest of Atrazenecsamas for many years, remain at a standstill after being noticed by Atrazenec-sama. It means that Edgar-kun was born in this world shouldering the destiny to surpass even me.
The destiny to surpass the Father
One more thing, and this also a teaching of the Samsara Temple; Among the ones who are born with the Blessing of the God of Samsara, there are some who are born with the memories of their previous life.
Knowledge of their previous life, huh.
Alfred-tousan looked at me, perplexed.
Julia-kaasan also looked at me anxiously.
I resolved myself and replied.
I have knowledge of my former life.
This is why my skills are so abnormal.
I dont know how it is in this world, but from what Ive learned by listening in on Mum and Dad, I thought it would be better if I didnt talk about it.
Is the second Mythical-Class skill connected to that by any chance?
The second Mythical class skill is called Instant Interpretation. It translates a language called Japanese from my previous life to the Marquekt Common Language.
I see.
The priest nodded once and turned to face Mum and Dad.
This child could have kept his skills hidden from me.
But instead, he decided to share them with you, his parents.
Edgar-kun, why did you decide to open up to Alfred-dono and Julia-dono?
The priest probably asked because he knew what I want to say.
I didnt want to keep it a secret.
From here on, there will probably be a lot of times when I will need to hide my skills.
But I didnt want to keep them a secret from Mum and Dad.
Then conversely, why did you keep it a secret until now?
Because I didnt want to scare them
Mum and Dad quietly listen to my story.
I heard about your actions at Ranzrack Fortress, did you not think about hiding your abilities then?
It was because I thought Mum and Dad were at risk.
Goleth was a dangerous opponent who had accepted the Evil Gods curse of calamity.
Did you say The Evil Gods Curse of Calamity!?
Dad asks the startled priest.
Father, just what exactly is The Evil Gods Curse of Calamity(?)?
Edgar-kun was blessed by the Goddess of reincarnation, Altrazenec, one of the Benevolent Gods. On the other hand, there are those who draw the attention of the Evil God, Monguenues, and are granted tremendous power by making a deal. I was in doubt of this until now but
Mum says to the frowning priest.
Back then, the leader of
Mn so he was strong enough to make the Flame Prison Witch say that.
With the Evil Gods curse of calamity, Goleth had given up part of his lifespan to receive a great bonus to his HP and MP and even gained the Enchant Magic skill.
Bonus? What exactly are you talking about?
By bonus, I mean that with the Evil Gods curse of calamity or the blessing of a Benevolent God, you can greatly increase your HP and MP. Goleth had added 250 to both his HP and MP.
A-added 250, you say!? Even though someone should only have 120 HP at most when theyve reached level 50.
Goleths original HP was 129.
Since its the result of Appraisal, theres no doubt.
So youre saying that his HP became three times the original?
His MP also rose, right?
The total is as though Julias maximum MP had been added on top of his own, huh?
Hes a complete monster.
Dad says as he shakes his head.
To add to both his HP and MP, Goleth shaved off 10 years of his lifespan apiece. Since he had to shave off more of his lifespan for the Enchant Magic and Toughness skills, his lifespan should have become 40 years shorter.
Hm. Is that price cheap or expensiveas expected of an Evil God, huh.
It seems Julia and I were in greater danger than I had thought.
Ed, really, thank you.
Dad strokes my head.
But, I wish you would tell us things like that sooner.
Mum puffs up her cheeks.
Im sorry.
I said from my heart, as I lowered my head.
My head was enveloped by something warm.
I also need to say sorry. Edgar-kun was so worried and I didnt even notice.
Mum says as she hugs me tightly.
Drops of something warm fell on my head.
As I looked up in surprise, Mum was crying.
Im really sorry.
No, its fine. But,
Mum lightly hit my head,
from now on, tell everything to your mother.
Even if its something thats hard to believe.
Then Mum can think about it together with you.
Okay.
My voice seemed like it would crack.
I started to tear up despite my age.
I should have done this earlier.
