After I returned home after defeating the Demon King, the rigor of my training softened from before.
　This was because my grandfather and grandmother were angry at me.

　They said it wasn't the kind of thing they would impose on an eight year old child, after all.

　However, the "play" with Leila that has increased in its place is as hard as it gets after all, so to be honest, not much has changed.
　Today, Leila took me to a dungeon about a hundred kilometers away from the town, and I got into all sorts of terrible trouble.

　Just like that, the months passed by and before I knew it, we were ten years old.
　That's right, we are at the age to receive the Blessing Ceremony.







　And the day of the Blessing Ceremony arrived in the blink of an eye.

'As I was thinking about what profession Ark and Leila would be given, Grandpa, I was so nervous I couldn't sleep at all yesterday!
Well, so is your grandmother.
You both know that's probably the third time you've said that.　I'm old enough to have to get a good night's sleep.

　It seems that the whole family will be participating in the blessing ceremony, and even Grandpa and Grandma were all up in the morning.
　My dad is the same as usual, though.

　By the way, our house is a two-family house.
　It's like a new addition to an old house that originally existed, and there are eight family members and four squires living together.

　Initially, we were going to build a new house on a piece of land some distance away and move in, but grandpa said, "I knew we'd miss you! and made it possible for me to live with them.
　I had only just been born, but I remember that moment because I was a reincarnation.

Huh, hmmm, you two don't have to be so nervous!　It's just what's going to happen, so just be willing to take it all in!
You're the most nervous person I've ever met!
Yeah, yeah, no way!

　Mother, your voice is rising.

"Oh?
'Now your brothers are going to get their blessing. Fear will be staying at home with mommy.
Uh-oh.

　In her mother's arms was my little sister, born just a month ago.
　Yes, the eighth in the family.

　She was named Fear, and she was growing up fine, but as expected, I couldn't take her with me.
　I don't know if she understands her mother's words or not, but she's staring at me with round eyes.
　No, you don't understand, as expected.

　Even though it can't be helped because of the baby, the mother looks anxious.

''Let Mira take care of Ark.
'Why just Ark......... You'd better take care of Leila too, okay?
'We'll think about it. Ark, no matter what profession you give me, your sister is on your side.
"?　Umm, yeah, thanks, Mira sister.

　I'm confused, but I thank Auntie Mila--sis, who is looking at me with loving eyes--for her help.

　You're always favoring me, aren't you, Auntie Mila?
　I don't know why.

　I call her big sister - some say she calls me big sister - but she's actually my dad's little sister, or aunt.
　She's just ten years older than him, so she must be twenty years old now.

　She's beautiful like her grandmother and has a good figure, so she seems to be very popular with the young men in the neighborhood, but I've never heard anything frivolous about her.

　Sometimes she wanders off, but usually she stays home all the time.
　.........maybe he doesn't work?
　Unlike your father, though, it seems to be a [senior position].

　I'm sure there are two types of jobs: Basic and Senior positions, and senior positions are rare.
It's because it's only by mastering the "basic" position that you can become a senior position.

　However, I've heard that your father's "unemployed" can't become more than "unemployed" no matter how hard he tries.



　We came to the temple.
　Children of the same age and their families are gathered in the chapel.

'Then I would like to begin the blessing ceremony.

　The priest told him.

　The priest in charge of the previous priest retired due to his age, so he seems to be a new person this year.
　He's still young, maybe in his mid-twenties.
　He was a stocky, slender, slightly nervous-looking brother.

　One by one, we stepped forward and prayed with the priest.
　Soon it was our turn.

'You can start with Leila,'
Thanks!

　Leila prays in front of the altar.

'This is.........'

　The priest's brother opened his eyes.

''Well, 《Magic Sword Princess》...?　is a profession I've never heard of....

　The chapel buzzed.

'Is that great?'
''I don't know... but from the name, it's probably higher than the 【Magic Swordsman】, which is the [Highest Position]... in other words, it could be the [Highest Position]...''

　More chapels spring up.

'Wow, what a new profession...'
And it's the [highest level]...
'Leon's grandson.......that family is special after all.......'

　Leila came back.

It's the "Magical Sword Princess"!
Hmm. I suppose it's a job that combines the "Magic King" and the "Sword Princess"?

　I'm sure it's a common occupation anyway.

'Good for you, Leila.'
'Yes!　I hope you get a good ARC too!

　I then walk to the front of the altar.

　Leila and I are twins.
　It seems that our professions are strongly influenced by our bloodlines, and if we're twins, it wouldn't be strange to have the same profession.

　Maybe that's why I could sense the strong gazes from the surroundings without having to look at them.
　No no, I have to focus on my prayers right now.

　And so while I was praying to the Goddess, a letter appeared in my mind.
