His eyes went blank in front of him.
As his eyes adjusted, Cain looked around. It was completely different from the baptismal room in the church where he had just been.
The whole place was blank and empty.
''What is this!''
This is God's world, you know. You are finally five years old. We've been waiting for you, Cain von Silford. Or should I call you Shiina Kazuya-kun?
Suddenly, I was called out, and when I turned around in surprise, there was a table and chairs that could seat about ten people, with the old man who called out to me and a few others sitting there.
''If you know Kazuya's name, that means you know I've been reincarnated, right?''
Cain asked the old man, who was sitting in the middle.
'Well, let's take our time talking about that, too. First of all, there's no point in standing there. You can sit over here.'
Cain sat down in an empty chair at the recommendation of his grandfather, who was sitting in the middle.
There was an old man sitting in front of him, and three men and three women on either side of him.
I am Zenom," he said, "and I would like to introduce myself to you once again. My name is Xenom. I am Zenom, the creator of this world.
If he thought he was a strange old man, Cain was surprised to find out that he was a creator god.
'By the way, just because he's a god, your heart is leaking out, too.
Xenom laughed as he stroked his beard.
Cain felt a cold sweat on his back as hard as he could.
'I was reincarnated and named Cain by my father and mother in this world. In this world, I am Cain von Silfort. Again, thank you.
He got up from his chair and politely bowed his head in greeting.
As expected, Cain didn't have the nerve to talk to the Creation God, who is also known as the Lord God, in an informal manner.
''Mm. First of all, though, about your reincarnation, Lime! Tell him.
The woman sitting to my left, with long white hair, freaked out.
'I am Lime. I will be the god in charge of the cycle of life and death. First of all, about you, I received a request from the God of Earth to reincarnate you into this world. As a matter of fact, your death is unscheduled, so I can't put you on the earth's reincarnation.
Eh. Was it wrong for you to defend the girl that time?
'I was told by the Earth God that he stumbled as he ran towards you and the real plan was to hold you down with people around you when you fell.
Or did he die in vain?
Cain's shoulders slumped as he was told that he had stood up to so much courage, but it was in vain.
''Yes. The murderer hadn't hurt anyone yet either, so the charges weren't planned to be that serious, but now that you're dead, you're guilty of murder.
Not only did I die, but the killer also aggravated the crime: ...
Even the gods of the earth said it was a pain in the ass.
'Lime. You should wrap him up in a little more ostracism: ...
The creator god followed up with a bitter smile.
Hearing the truth, as Cain, he was sad rather than regretful. No one would think that if they heard that he died while making others unhappy as well.
''Since it is not possible to reincarnate on Earth, it means that I have entrusted your soul to your care. At that time, you died through a good deed, so I consulted with the gods of the earth and they told me that if I left your memories behind, your world might develop as well, so I reincarnated you with your memories. However, I thought that if I awakened her memory right after she was born, it would be mentally difficult for her to breastfeed and change diapers, so I sealed her up so that her memory would come back when she was baptized at the age of five, but somehow at the age of three, her memory came back.
Cain told God as he looked at God apologizing to him as he bowed his head.
'Lord Lime, it's been five years since I was born in this world and two years since I regained my memories, but I'm having fun now. In the other world, I died, and although it is a bit of a shock to me, I can't go back now. Besides, in my past life I lost my family when I was very young and my last family member, my grandfather, passed away. Now I have a family and a sister, and I am happy. Besides, there is magic in this world and I have a very full life, so don't apologize. On the contrary, thank you for leaving me with my memories. I have no problem with my memory returning at the age of three, because I was able to learn a lot of things, like writing and magic.
On the contrary, I bowed my head to the gods and thanked them. Because really, I'm enjoying my life right now. And there's magic. The best part is that I have a family.
Yeah. You're good. I like it.
A woman with long black hair and a black robe came into the conversation.
''I'm Reno, the God of Magic. Cain, you've been practicing magic since you were three years old. I used to watch you occasionally. I will give you a blessing and you will continue to practice hard.
Hmm. We'll give you our blessing. I'm sure we'll see each other again soon. Oh, fffffffffffffffffffff.
I don't know what the creation god means by 'we'll meet again', but I'm thankful that sister Rayne also had the blessing of the magic god.
'I must introduce the gods here first. I'm sure you'll be able to find it. Next to them is the goddess of the earth, Bella. On the other side of the table is the god of war, Thanos. Next to him is Grimm, the God of Skill. And the fat one is Panem, the god of commerce.
The warrior god, Thanos, was the first to call out to me.
You should not only practice magic, but also swordsmanship and physical skills. You should not only do magic, but also train your sword skills and physical skills. I'll give you my blessing, so it will be easier to remember your skills.
You are a Grimm, the God of Skill. I have a blessing for you. There is much that does not exist in this world. There's not a lot of entertainment in this world. If it's not too much, you can bring in knowledge from the previous world.
Then the god of commerce sitting next to me calls out to me.
''I'll give you my blessing too. With my blessing, you will be able to use the appraisal and item box. Appraisals will be able to provide you with details if you are aware of them. You'll be able to see the details of your status as well. The number of things you can put in the item box depends on the level of your blessing.
He said that all the gods will give us blessings.
I listened to the stories of the gods with trepidation, wondering if I should receive that much.
The last one was the Creator God.
You'll find out about my blessing when you return to your home world. It's about time. It's about time for us to meet again, Cain. Take care.
As the Creator God said that, my consciousness gradually became more and more distant.
Suddenly, I realized that sister Rayne's face was in front of me.
''Cain! Are you okay?
Hey. It's the Lady Rayne.
You're back.
The priest can't believe it.
"Oh. I never knew statues of the gods to shine so brightly.
The priest began to pray to the image of God.
I looked at the family around me and was stunned.
After a short wait, the priest finally finished his prayer.
'This concludes the baptism. It seems that the light you just saw was a blessing from the gods. I pray that you will continue to grow in the future, giving thanks to the gods.
Thank you.
The priest and the statue of the gods bow to the priest and the statue of the gods before leaving.
Everyone gets into the carriage in silence.
The first to speak is my father, Garum.
'What was that light? It didn't glow at Rayne, did it? It was Cain. Do you know what it was?
Father, I don't understand.
You can't say you've been meeting with the gods, indeed.
'Well .... Maybe you've been blessed by the gods.
'When you get home, you can check your status. Look at it alone at first, and if you need any advice, you can tell me.
'Thank you, Father. I'll check it out when I get home.
Rayne interrupts me.
'Mr. Cain! I showed mine to you, so you can show mine to me later!
'Yes! I understand. Hey, sister Rayne. I hope you got a blessing.
I got to meet the gods and they were going to give me blessings, and I'm looking forward to checking my status.
The carriage rocked me back the way I had come, and I arrived home.
I come back to my room and take a breath.
'I remember it being status,'
"Status.
A translucent board was displayed in front of me.

...
It was abandonment.
Crumbling to the floor, hands on the floor, unable to get up.
You're too much of a pain in the ass!
'Gods, I appreciate the blessing, but it's too much: .... Isn't God's blessing five levels from Lv.1 to 5? What the hell is a lvl 10! Even my father didn't say that!
From the age of three until now, I forgot to weigh myself against the practice of magic, but I can only assume that the gods had forgotten to weigh themselves too.
''I don't know what will happen if I continue to show my status to my family. And what the hell! An apostle of God. I can't go home if the church or anyone else finds out. Is there any way we can get away with not showing this status: ...
Cain could only hold his head up.
