The high priest was confused.

“Hmm, is this the first time you saw such gifts?"

“Yeah, how do you read it? Well, if it’s a battle system or a production system, or is it a special system …”

“Ah, that”

“Well … how?”

"It’s easy. All you have to do is pray, and your gift will be given to you!" (ED note: originally hope, but pray sounded better)

“Ha ha …”

The priest waves his hand as the light from the ceiling s.h.i.+nes upon me

As told, I prayed in my mind about awakening my gift.

I yell gift many times in my mind … … but nothing happens…

“… … nothing happened though,”

“Fufu, uh, yeah, next one, come!”

“Please wait. What kind of "gift” did I receive?!”

“Well, yeah … I do not know ….”Gift Birth” can only be used once by one person, it is no doubt that you have received a “gift”, somehow activate it, the next person in the line, come!”

The f**k old man?

d.a.m.n, I don't understand…

Besides, Lyrica and Sere have vanished along with the guy (b.a.s.t.a.r.d) called 『Brave』.

“There's no choice, would you like to wait at home?”

Anyway, I decided to go home and wait for the girls to come back.

After going home, I reported the circ.u.mstances surrounding my gift.

Then both my father and mother tilted their heads. There is no choice for me right now; I have to be patient…

As I waited for Lyrica and Sere to come back home, in the backyard I made a strong swing with a wooden sword.

Instead of worrying about my gift, I worried about Sere and Lyrica's gifts, the anxiety made my head go blank

After 3 hours of mindless sword practice…

“I’m home, Light!"

“Sorry for being late.”

“Lyrica · · · · · · Sere.”

Two people came home at the same time unexpectedly.

I got the “gift” I’ve been waiting for a long time, but the two of them…. My facial expressions are not cheery.

Sitting on the curb of the flowerbed that we have been sitting in since childhood, we talk.

"I… The both of us have to go on a journey with the Brave…. It seems that both of our gifts are suited for killing the Demon King, the Brave seems to have a plan in his mind for killing the Demon King this time…"　”…I see”

Perhaps, I had such a feeling.

However, when I hear the answer from the mouth of these two people, I feel really heavy.

“By the way, what "gift" did Light get?”

“Ah … … no, I didn't understand, I couldn't activate it when I tried, I don't even know whether it is a battle system, a production system or a special system. The great priest was also confused.”

“······what is up with that?”

I will explain it all together.

But, now it’s about Lyrica.

“I will train my "gift” at the royal castle for the next month, then I will go on a journey with the Brave.”

"First of all, we're going to defeat the Demon Generals who revived with the resurrection of the Demon King." (ED note: Demon Generals sounded better than Kin of the Demon King did)

Apparently, the Demon King has already resurrected…

Whether it is because of the information regulation within the kingdom, it is an unknown truth.

“Perhaps, it will take about a year for us to kill the Demon King.. ”

“· · · · · · 1 year?!"

“Light, will you wait for us until then …?”

No wonder. (Didn't really understand this line, anyways it's unimportant)

Besides, I also have a goal.

“Well then … I will become a knight by the time you return, so let's get married when you return”

“Light · · · · ·”

“Okay … … then, we'll have to beat the Demon King quickly”

In a way, I also have a new goal.

I will become a knight by the time they return, and marry them!

From the next day, Lyrica started training at the castle.

At the same time, the general examination for the rookie knights began, and the boys and girls who got the “gift” from the battle system rushed.

Of course, I also applied.

There is a handicap that “gifts” cannot be used, but I'm confident in my swordsmans.h.i.+p.

After 1 month, the content for the test is for practical skill only.

The point is to show off your skills to the knights that are watching the test.

I carried out intensive training for one month alone.

And on the day of examination. I was coming to the castle.

The exam date and the departure date of that douche Brave and his party were the same, there were many knights and royal officials from the castle to see them off.

The b.a.s.t.a.r.d Brave came out of the castle with the users of the four blessing swords.

While answering cheers, the heroes advance.

While I was watching with the crowd, I prayed that Lyrica or Sere would notice me.

“uuu······no good”

Of course.

If there were so many people, you wouldn't be able to see anyone behind the crowd.

I saw Lyrica as they were advancing among the crowd.

And I waited for the knight test.

The test was simple. Make the Knights you are fighting against in the test acknowledge your potential.

Let me show them my power, the world soon became bright and I became a knight candidate.

First off…….

Conclusion. The knight was f**cking strong.

There were no knights here that I could defeat nor could I even land a blow on them.

As I repeated my attacks several times, the knight nodded a little.

“Okay, you pa.s.s!"

“⁉”

The knight swung down the wooden sword to my wrist and made me drop my long sword.

It was too strong of a blow, I couldn't handle it.

“It’s been quite a while late at your age (ED note: don't understand this part), but it’s still good, it seems that you have been diligent at training.”

“Oh, thank you very much!”

I understood later that this person is the Deputy Head of the Order.

He heard that I was my father’s son; I volunteered myself against my opponent.

“Congratulations, Candidate Knight Light … Shall we begin the training from tomorrow onwards?”

“Yes!”

In this way, I took the first step of becoming a knight.

The first step of completing my promise with Lyrica and Sere.

But … All of it was an illusion.
