8 7. Future story




 I finished getting my status and now I'm in the mansion.

 The silence of everyone after we left the temple and returned to the carriage after that was awful.

 None of them wanted to talk, and everyone had a uniformly difficult look on their face.

 I was just me, and I was thinking about titles and skills.

 Checking the status again.
 
 Ravert Lanwalker, 1 year old, male, level
 Occupation:Unemployed
 Strength:75
 Magic power:100
 Strength:30
 Agility:10
 Material resistance:200

 I knew the problem was the title part!

 The one without limits is the one that he said the goddess gave him before his reincarnation. And thanks to that, the status level is now hidden.

 Isn't it quite a cheat that you can become stronger if you work hard enough? If it weren't for the other title, "The Person Who Suffered Difficulties," I wouldn't have to work so hard. What's the point? You're going to have to deal with a lot of hardships in your life, and you're going to have a checkered life just a year after birth!

 As I was thinking about this, a bicorn and a mechanical sound echoed in my head. What the hell was that?

 Then the status opened automatically.

 A message from the goddess Astell ▽.
 I didn't see it in the title section, but you can take all of the skills as well as the stats if you work hard enough, so good luck with that!
 Because skills that weren't suited for you can't be learned, because they're supposed to be hard to learn!

 You goddess, don't come in here and tell me what's really important!

 It's just a matter of trying, don't you think?

 Maybe I should tell them about my past life...

 I'm afraid of what people will think, but with a title like this, you have to work hard, and the cooperation of your parents is essential. I don't know when or what kind of difficulty will arise, but I will have the strength to overcome whatever it is that I encounter.

 So that I don't die young again! I'm trying to make this life fun this time!

Chloe! Let's go to your father and mother!

All right. Master Ray.

 
 When we got to the mansion, we left Chloe in charge of Ray and me and Ellis went into my study.

'Ellis, are you okay?'

You. It's okay. I'm just worried about her life from now on...

 That would be true. Indeed, me and Ellis prayed that the child has good skills to avoid having a hard time in the future.

 That child's status was certainly excellent for a baby, but that was only for Magic Power and Demon Resistance. The other numbers are so normal that they're not too different from Elisabeth's two sons. In terms of talent alone, Aeris, Eileen's daughter, was better.
 In any case, the numbers were all over 100 or more, and even though she was just born, she already had swordsmanship skills. She also had the title of 'The Master of Swords' in the title column.

 The Master of Swords: a person who has an abundance of sword talent. He can use any type of sword at his disposal. Your swordsmanship skills and stats will be improved, as well as your strength and agility.

 Because of these talents, Eileen had been giving Aeris a sword since she was just two years old. It is said that all the swordsmiths who were known as the "Sage of Swords" had this title. Thanks to this, even though Aeris is 4 years old this year, her swordsmanship is level 4 muscle strength and agility is nearly 400.

 Compared to that, I must say that Ray's current status is mediocre. Until I saw that title.

 That's probably what Ellis is concerned about.

''Ellis, about that...''

'Zeke. I think I should train Ray, even if it's mind-blowing.

Is it because you want that boy to be a hero?

 Yes, that title was that special. When you reach a certain status level or skill level, it's difficult to grow rapidly. That's what is commonly referred to as the growth limit.

 I myself haven't improved much in recent years. But that girl is different. Thanks to that title, the more you work, the more you grow. I don't know how many years it will take, but I'm sure he'll become a Sword Sage, and if he masters magic, he'll become the legendary title of Magic King.

''No! It's not about that title, it's about 'The Troubled One'!

I'm sure that title was a problem too. We don't know the scale of the difficulties listed in the title. Is it a hardship that is confined to this frontier county, or is it a hardship that involves the entire country...?

'I don't think it's such a small thing. I think it's probably enough to involve the whole continent, in my opinion.

What makes you think that?

That's a mother's hunch!

"...hahaha! Yeah, right! A mother's hunch! Then we'll have to train Ray on that one! Your arm will be!

 That's when I heard a bicorn and a mechanical sound in my head. As it did so, Ray's status opened up.

 A message from the goddess Astell ▽.
 I didn't see it in the title column, but you can take all of the skills as well as the stats depending on your efforts, so good luck with that!
 Because skills that weren't suited for you can't be learned, because they're supposed to be hard to learn!

 I... Ha! Me and Ellis both froze when we saw this message from the goddess.

'I will teach you all the magic I can use! You'll be the spearman, and Eileen will teach you swordsmanship!

Yeah. Eileen can be trusted, you know. And she'll be happy to have more disciples who learn her swordsmanship.

 And as the two of us were talking about that, I heard a knock on the door.

'Master Zeke. Master Ray is here to see you.

 Oh my! I didn't expect Ray to come to me.

'You.........'

Yeah, I'll make sure Ray knows what's going on.

 I have a feeling she'll understand somehow.
 Woohoo!
Excuse me, Father and Mother.

 I walked into the study with Chloe in my arms.

 Both of them could see that my mood had changed, and they both looked more serious than I'd ever seen them before.

'Oh, Ray! I'm glad you're here! Do you miss me?
 He laughs at me, but his eyes remain serious. Let's be serious here.

'I have something important to tell your father and mother. Chloe, please listen to me too.

Ray? Did you speak that fluently?

 Ellis wonders about the way I speak.

'I'll talk to you about that, but first I want to talk about my story.

Ray? It's not about status?

''Yes. Status has something to do with it, but I'm actually a reincarnated person with memories of a previous life. In my previous life, I was just an ordinary student, but I had an accident and died. At that time, I was reincarnated into this world by the goddess Aster. At that time, I was given the title of "One without Limits" from my memory and status as a result of saving people. I had forgotten all about 'No Limits'.

'I see. So that's why the goddess Aster gives you all sorts of titles and stuff,'' said my father, looking up to the heavens.

 Elise and Chloe were amazed with their eyes.



 I was despising myself, when suddenly I heard a crackling sound and I was blown away. Eh? What happened? Zeke and Chloe stood in amazement. Then what about Ellis? I was about to look for him when suddenly someone hugged me.

'What do you say! It's not going to be weird! You are me and Zeke's child, Ravert Lanwalker! It doesn't matter what you remember from your previous life, you were born in this world, our precious child!

 Ellis, who did so, hugged me tightly as I cried.

''That's right, Ray-sama. I feel the same way as Ellis-sama! For I have sworn to serve Master Ray no matter what, whether he has memories of his previous life or not.

 Yes, Chloe told me and I finally started to cry.

'Haha! That's right, Ray. It's all been said by the two ladies, but you are our precious son. And even if you want to leave our side, we won't let you!

 Zeke laughed at me.

 I have to admit, there was a part of me that wasn't sure we could really be a family. I thought that if I told them about this past life, they'd get creeped out and kick me out, but it all turned out to be unfounded. I felt like I could finally be a family of run-walkers with these two kids.
