Baptism
The day of baptism came.
This world is not as safe as Japan in the previous life.
So even if a child is born, it didn't necessarily mean that it will survive.
That's why it's customary to celebrate the growth so far and to pray for God
to bless them so that they can grow up safely until the age of five.
It seems that the status magic can be used as a result of praying to God.
"Speaking of which, I've never had a birthday or a celebration."
Generally, people celebrate their birthday at the age of five, ten, and fifteen,
and then they
became
adults at the age of fifteen.
Cain was dressed in the clothes for the aristocrat that he had prepared while
thinking about
the world.
"Cain, are you ready to go out?"
The door was knocked and Sylvia entered the room.
"Silvia I'm ready."
I left the room with Sylvia, who came to call me in her usual maid outfit.
Already outside the door, my father, mother, and sister Reine were waiting.
"Sorry to keep you waiting father."
Cain bows his apology to his father for the delay.
Garm laughs and shakes his hand.
"Don't worry about it. Even so, Cain looks good when dressed up. It 's
similar to Sarah."
"Cain. Cute!"
Reine rubbed her cheeks at the appearance of Cain.
She had a little bro-con, but he was an older sister who took good care of
me.
When I'm busy practicing magic, she often looked for me around the house
.
I was always hiding so that she could not find me during practice.
"Thank you Reine-nee."
Cain responded obediently with a full smile.
The carriage was ready and the butler Sebas came to call.
"Everyone was waiting. Please take a ride now."
Riding the
carriage with the
whole
family.
Garm in
the
back and
Sara
sat next to him .
Reine and I were sitting face to face.
"Let's go."
After the
butler's signal, the carriage began to move slowly.
"Speaking of which, when I am
given the status magic, what will it look like?"
I have
never seen
status
magic
before, so I
asked
Reine.
"Cain has never seen it before! So let me show you mine."
The older sister chanted while saying so.
"Status open."
Something like a translucent glass screen emerges in front of Leine.
"When you say " Status ", only you can see it, you can show it to others by
saying
Status Open."
"You're amazing, Reine-nee."
A translucent glassy screen pops up.
"Cain! Come closer. I'll show you."
I approached Reine and looked at the translucent screen.

"…"
I saw a title that I shouldn't see.
"Ah! The title on the left. Cain, did you see it?"
She observed Cain's complexion with a slightly shy face.
"Reine-nee can use magic for all three attributes!"
I pretended that I didn't see it.
"So he didn't see it."
Reine, who is stroking her chest next to him, murmured beside me with a
smile.
"Reine has magical attributes with three attributes and has a level 2
blessing."
Garm is also smiling. It looked like an excellent status.
"There are more magic and blessing, Lv. 1 to 5 is more common. If you
train it, the level of
magic will rise, and if
the
Gods
favor you, the level of
blessing will
rise."
There are 3 to 5 magic levels and blessing levels when becoming a court
magician.
Going up to level 5 seems to be like a great man who leaves a name in
history.
I looked at the street from the window of the carriage, but this Gracia town
was full of shops and stalls and looked lively with many people.
When you get to the church in thirty-ninth place, you get off the carriage in
front of the main gate and head to the reception.
"Garm von Sylford Gracia. My son is five years old and he came to be
baptized.The priest should've been notified."
Garm talked to the receptionist.
"Yes. I have heard from the priest. Please come here."
As the receptionist came to the lord, she gave a curtsy and guided us inside
the church.
After proceeding to the back, she opened the door and stood beside it and I
gave her my thanks.
"We are preparing the altar now. Please wait in this room."
The room that I was guided to was a calm reception room, although it just
wasn't as luxurious as the church.
My father, Garm, goes to the back and my mother Sarah sat next to him.
Reine and Cain sat face to face.
The nuns prepared tea for each person and placed it in front of each other.
"When it's ready, we will pick you up."
"It's fine Cain. you don't have to be so nervous. I'm sure the priest will
explain it to you properly. Today, after the baptism is over, let's do a
celebration for your baptism. "
"It would be nice if Cain also received a lot of magic and protection!"
Reine is always smiling at being together.
"I think if he has magical aptitude. It should be as much as Reine."
My mother Sarah is also happy.
Cain was able to hide and practice magic, so far, he can do all four
elemental magic.
I think there is no problem with my aptitude.
Will my parents be happy if I showed the aptitude for four elements ?
With that in mind, I drank my tea and relaxed.
When I was chatting with my family, I heard a knock and the sister entered
the room.
"Everything is ready, so I came to let you know.
I followed the sister and came to the altar room.
In front of the altar, a person who seems to be a priest awaits, and in the
back are seven statues of God,
centered on a
slightly
larger
statue in the middle. The sunlight is shining
fantastically through the window.
"Lord, thank you for waiting. Now I 'm going to start baptizing Cain von
Sylford, 5 years old.
Inspired by his
father,
Garm, Cain folds his hand on one knee
before
the priest.
"Cain von Sylford. The Seven gods of marineford are celebrating your
baptism today.
The
priest goes directly to the statues of the gods, bends his knees and joins his
hands.
"Gods watching over this world. Give Cain von Sylford a status magic and
show him the way."
At that moment, my field of view became pure white.
