Volume 1 Chapter 1 Prologue
Hello this is new works, I hope you enjoy it.
Skill.
When you turn ten, you receive a blessing from the gods during the (Skill Ceremony) held by the temple.
What skill you get depends on the god.
"Elk. The skill of Elk Kinesis is... (Telekinesis)!"
"Wha──?"
Elk Kinesis.
The firstborn of the Duke Kinesis family. His skill was (Telekinesis).
Elk turned pale and looked back.
There were his younger brother, Rosho, and his younger sister, Sarissa.
Then, Rosho's blessing began.
"Rosho. The skill of Rosho Kinesis is... wow, (Sword Saint)!!"
"Yesss!!"
Rosho raised his fist in the air.
Then, a man pushed Elk aside and placed a hand on Rosho's shoulder.
"Good job, Rosho. Just like my son!!"
"Yes, Father!!"
"Ah..."
"And compared to you, Elk..."
Their father didn't hide his disappointment as he looked at Elk.
He had lost interest in Elk, who had received the skill of Telekinesis.
And then, Sarissa.
"Sarissa. The skill of Sarissa Kinesis is... wow, (Magic Saint)!!"
"Yay!! I did it!!"
"..."
"Oh dear!!"
"Whoa!?"
The one who pushed Elk aside was a beautiful woman.
The woman hugged Sarissa and kissed her.
"As expected of my daughter. Hehe, Magic Saint... the strongest magician who can control all attributes!!"
"Mom, I did it!!"
"Yes, yes... Ugh, to have 2 children with (Epic Skills) from the Duke family!!"
Their mother was in tears of joy.
Their father embraced their mother and hugged both their son and daughter.
It was a scene of family that looked like a painting.
There, unable to join... a boy named Elk.
"......"
Elk hung his head in disappointment.
His skill (telekinesis) was... commonly known as a (useless skill).
* * *
In a small country to the west of the Galatin continent, the Kingdom of Deo.
Elk, the eldest son of the Duke Kinesis family, lived a hellish daily life.
He stayed in a small annex, a bit away from the main estate of the Duke Kinesis family.
"Good morning, Sir Elk."
"......Good morning."
There was only one servant.
A ten-year-old maid named Emma, who wore glasses and had her hair in braids.
Emma set the breakfast tray on the table and smiled brightly.
"Sir Elk, you received a skill yesterday, right? You went to sleep right after coming home, so I missed it. What kind of skill was it?"
"...Do you want to see it?"
"Yes!"
Elk stretched out both hands and focused his power.
"Nggghhhhh...!!"
"Eh, Sir Elk? ...What is that?"
The spoon on the table started to move.
Then, it moved 1 cm, 2 cm... towards Elk.
"Phew!? Ha, ha, ha... Th-this is my skill, (telekinesis). Hahaha... Emma, what do you think?"
"Um, well..."
"I know. It's a useless skill. It's just a common skill that allows commoners to attract small stones or light objects... a useless skill."
He said it twice.
Elk was in despair.
"You can laugh. Rosho is a sword saint, Sarissa is a magic saint... epic skills. No doubt, the strongest skills."
"Eh, Sir Elk..."
"W-what about your skill, Emma?"
"I-I got (sewing) skills... but I'm still level 1."
"Level 1, huh? Me too... But the highest level for telekinesis is 10... Even if I max out my level, I can only pull a desk a little bit."
Elk felt even more down.
Then, Emma slammed her hand on the desk.
"Sir Elk!! Don't show such a sad face!!"
"Uh, Emma...?"
"We promised, remember? With Mrs. Rose, (no matter what skills we get, we will do our best to live)!"
"......"
Elk's mother, Rose, was no longer here.
Now, the second wife, Bella, was the main wife. She was also Rosho's mother.
And there was the third wife, Milia. Salissa's mother was also there.
The first wife and main wife, Rose, was already gone.
Now, Bella was the current Ducheness and his father Wald's main wife.
Rose and Wald's marriage was arranged by their parents, and there were no romantic feelings between them. However, Wald loved his childhood friends Bella and her sister Milia.
Because of this... he didn't love Elk either. Now, Elk was treated like someone who "wasn't there."
After the skill ceremony revealed Elk's skill was (a useless skill), he was treated even worse.
"...sigh."
Even though he was only ten years old, Elk already understood.
There was no place for him in this house.
"...Emma."
"Yes?"
"...thank you, as always."
"No! I was asked by Mrs. Rose to watch over you, Sir Elk!"
"...yeah."
Elk tried to pull the spoon in front of him with all his strength, but... he quickly stopped.
A useless skill like this had no meaning at all.
