Volume 1 Chapter 4 Skill
He heard a woman's voice back then.
When he opened his eyes, he was in a white space.
In front of him stood a beautiful woman with a gentle smile, and Michio instantly understood she was a goddess.
"Where is this?"
Even as he said it, he thought it was a pretty silly question.
"It's not strange. This is what you call the divine realm. I called you here to say thank you. I'm Goddess Gardea."
Goddess Gardea?!
She should be one of the gods of this world, the goddess who rules the earth.
"You study well. On your Earth, I was called the Earth Mother Gaia. Michio, do you remember your last moments on Earth?"
The goddess asked, looking a bit down.
"I think I died protecting a girl...”
Maybe because time had passed, or due to the painful memory, he was starting to forget.
"Thank you so much. That girl was my grandchild's vessel. If you hadn't protected her, it would have been a big problem. Thank you so much."
Saying this, the goddess took his hand.
"I'm just glad you're safe, but if she was your grandchild, couldn't you have used your power to save her?"
He asked, feeling a bit curious.
"To put it simply, it was possible. However, if I intervened, it would have caused distortions in Earth and this world. So, I thank you for protecting both my grandchild's life and the world."
"No, no, I'm very happy to know my life was useful. Just knowing my life had meaning is enough for me."
Even after awakening as Cain, Michio felt a bit regretful when he thought of his parents on Earth, but he was glad to have been of help to someone.
"Now, let's get to another task."
The goddess said this while displaying a screen like a tablet in front of her and began to operate it.
"Status: Cain Sanroze."
As the goddess chanted, the screen showed the words Cain Sanroze and several statuses.
"You have a skill already. Is that so? You got your mother's skill."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Don't you remember? When your mother, Linore, was dying, did you feel something move into you?"
He digs into Cain's memories.
"I think... When Mother Linore died, the hand I was holding glowed...?"
"That's right. You got the [healing magic] skill from Linore."
The Goddess explained while looking at a tablet.
He remembered Linore and felt grateful.
"Then, I'll give you 3 skills as a thank you. Please press the roulette button."
A button that said "START" appeared in front of him.
"Huh? I can't choose? In other world stories, you usually get to pick cheat skills."
He complained to the Goddess, getting impatient.
"Before, I let people choose, but someone chose skills that messed up the world's balance, so I made it random."
The Goddess looked a little sorry.
"But, I'll give you 3 skills instead, so please understand."
He gave up and pressed the "START" button in front of him.
A roulette-like screen appeared, and 3 words showed up.
・ Earth magic
・ Unlimited magic power
・ Magic circle magic
"What the heck is this?"
He was shocked by the skills that appeared.
