“Welcome back! Hey, hey, how was it!”
“How was it!”
“Hurry, hurry!”
“Uwawa!?”
As soon as I got home, my mom, Nina, and my brother carried me into the living room and placed me in a single chair, where they stared at me with curious faces.
Ahhh …… They sure are expecting something …… My brother’s “Charisma”, so even though I’m not that good, I believe that I would get something like a wizard or a swordsman …… But I had no choice but to tell the truth, and I opened my mouth.
“Er …… It was some kind of Hazure skill called “Jack-of-all-Trades”.”
“What …….”
The smile disappears from my mom’s face and I hand her the gold plate.
“……”
“Ma’am!?”
“Hmm, what kind of skill is this?”
Aside from Nina supporting Mom as she collapses to her knees, my brother calmly asks. Dad answered for me. Mom sat down on the couch.
“It’s a skill that can do just about anything, but it seems to only be able to perform like a degraded version of any other skill. So, let’s say Delaide’s [Charisma] works really well in business. Lars will do reasonably well.”
“Ugh …… I pity you, Lars-sama ……”
I was startled by the crying Nina, and I hurriedly got up from my chair to say.
“I thought It’s good as long as I like my work, but ……”
“Hmmm, I can see what Lars is saying, but both the guild and the person who hires you for the job will be looking at your skills, so you could be at a disadvantage. Well, you don’t have to worry about it as long as you stay home and work the fields.”
Dad said something like that to me, so I went to sit next to him on the couch.
“I see? Hmm, I was thinking of doing some kind of work, but I don’t know if it will be easy.”
“…… Don’t worry about it, okay? But Dad will do his best to get you into the academy, okay?”
” “How did you know about that ……!?” “
My brother and I shouted in surprise at my father’s words. Because he never said he wanted to go to the academy and said he would help his father and mother when he grew up.
“Haha, I guess Delaide and Lars thought we couldn’t hear them, but we know what the kids are thinking! …… or rather, I could hear them from my room.”
“Thanks, Dad! I’m going to go to college, get good grades and get a good job, regardless of my skills!”
“Me too! Hey, Lars is not a Hazure, Mom.”
“…… You’re right. I don’t know what I’m talking about because my kid is a Hazure! I’m sorry, Lars. I’ll surely get you into the academy!”
“Hey, hey, hey …… It’s a good story …… I’m really happy to be a maid in this house!”
We all laughed together, thinking that Nina’s “Hey, hey, hey” was old fashioned. Yes, my family is very kind. They didn’t discriminate against me even though I was given a Hazure skill.
In my previous life, I thought that was normal, but now I know how much I was mistreated ……
In the end, we were so excited to celebrate today that we went to bed after eating a poor but delicious meal prepared by Mom and Nina.
–But aside from that, it’s never a bad idea to have money. Even at the age of five, I try to think of something I can do, so I sit up in bed and sit cross-legged.
But ……
“I’m afraid I’ll get in trouble if I take a part-time job without permission ……”
The conclusion settled there.
I’ve been playing around for a while now, so basically I have a free range of movement, so I should be able to go to town. However, I could tell from the people in town that Dad wasn’t very welcomed on his way to and from work today.
And.
“…… I’d like to know what’s going on between him and that lord, Brao. Dad can’t seem to raise his head against him, so I don’t think it’s a good idea to go into town carelessly, I guess?”
Then there’s only one thing I can do now. I should learn to be able to use [Super Jack-of-all-Trades] properly. I’ll be ten years old when I enter the academy, so I have another five years to train.
But there is a problem: I don’t know how to use this skill ……
“…… Let’s start tomorrow ……”
Well, I figured I could make it in five years, so I crawled under the covers and fell asleep.
◆ ◇ ◆
— was the way it was supposed to go but ……
“What?”
The next time I woke up, I was sitting in a room I didn’t know existed. My clothes were not pajamas, but normal clothes. But this place looks familiar ……
“Hey, you made it.”
“W-Who are you?”
I was startled by a voice from behind me and turned around to see a person in a black suit standing there. I thought he had very sleepy eyes, but then he opened his mouth.
“I’m nothing suspicious. Didn’t I reply to you the other day when you thanked me?”
“Reply …… Ah! The same voice that sounded so distracted!”
“That’s rude. It’s not important, though, is it?”
I wonder which one is the one in the suit …… that smiles at me? The person in front of me, who looks like a man or a woman, is the one I’m going to ask.
“In the end, who are you? I don’t even know if you’re a man or a woman …… Are you really God?”
“A, A man ……!? What is it about me that makes me look like a man!?”
“No, your suits is trouser, and your hair is short and shaggy …… You look like a neat ……”
“No!?”
The word “neat” may have had an effect on him, and he fell to his knees, put his hands on them, and shivered. Ahhh, I may have said too much.
“I’m sorry …… I didn’t expect you to be so shocked.”
“It’s not a problem, because if you think about it, I was like that.”
“What the hell!?”
I felt my body slump, but he didn’t seem to mind and continued talking to me.
“My name is Regal. I’m a woman, okay? And it was I, of all people, who brought you into this world, yes.”
“…… So that’s it. This room, if you look closely, it’s my room in my previous life.”
“Ishish, I thought you would believe me.”
“So you’re a god, then?”
“No, I’m …… what you call a demon. I may look like a god to some people.”
The devil!? I stepped back at the unexpected remark. But Regal waved her hand in the air and said to me.
“It’s not like I’m asking for your soul or anything, so don’t worry about it. I thought I’d explain the skill to you for now, you know? Wouldn’t you like to know about the [Super Jack-of-all-Trades] that I gave you?”
“This way of talking. Is he the guy that gave it to me or not? I’m a little concerned about being a kind demon, but,”
“Can I ask you seomething ……?”
I said to myself. Then, Regal smiled
“Of course.”
He declared.
I mean, it’s been five years since I was reincarnated, isn’t it a little late to come out ……?
