《5 One Year Old》
One year has quickly passed since I died on Earth and have been reincarnated in this world.
Though I’m finally able to walk, I’ve not been allowed out of the house.
Sarah is immensely overprotective, she continuously says『It is dangerous outside, your first outing will be with your Mama, ok?』, but it is natural for me to want to see the townscape of a parallel world……
When I try to stealthily sneak out, without fail, Sarah or Airi would tell me off.
It is a mystery how the two of them seem to sense it. Our house has 5 rooms including the dining room. It’s not a very large house and it can’t be helped that there is no backdoor,
My father, Dan, still continues to work as an adventurer. Well, that’s his occupation, so I guess that’s natural.
As a consequence of that, he goes out almost every day. Depending on the quest, he might be gone for days at a time.
I don’t know if my mother, Sarah, has retired as an adventurer because even if she goes out, she is back within the day, usually at the latest, in the evening.
There is a calendar made of wood in the house.
From what I can understand from the calendar, this world has 360 days. A month is 30 days, there are 6 days in the week and a day consists of 24 hours. The week consists of Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
There are usually no visitors in the house though Dan and Sarah’s adventurer companions come to play once a month.
Galwin, who is a friend of Dan and Sarah’s, is a man with a tough-looking face and body and he has a scar of about 5cm in the upper right of his right eye.
His intimidating presence is so great that when I first saw him, I thought he was a burglar. he has a loud voice and he is told time and time again to turn it down.
In addition to him, a woman named Lisa comes to visit too. She’s an elf with pointy ears, a doll-like face, beautiful blonde hair, slender body, she is an extremely glamorous woman.
Though she has a bit of an uptight personality and she is always telling off Dan and Galwin due to Dan being too merry and Galwin’s personality being too rough, but her remonstrations seem to have not much effect.
My mother, Sarah is usually calm and gentle but in this situation, she often tells Dan, Galwin, and Lisa off like she would younger siblings.
I learned that Airi was the daughter of a senior adventurer who took care of Dan when he was a rookie.
However, said adventurer and his wife didn’t come home one day around 2 years ago and left Airi behind, an orphan without parents.
Then Dan took her in to live with us and due to Airi’s skill and the wish of the person herself, it was arranged for her to work and live as our maid.
Dan and the rest of them told me that the city we are living in is called Dallas and the name of the country is Ustenia.
As it is the royal capital, Dallas is a little larger than your average city, it is a large metropolis when Ustenia is concerned.
Apart from that, I’m finally turned 1 year old and though I can move my mouth and tongue with some degree of dexterity, I still can’t speak fluently. To be honest, my faltering tone is embarrassing…….
Even then, I’m able to speak a little, so I’ll be able to continue steadily building up my knowledge.
I’m recognized as a very decile child as I only cry when I’m hungry or need a change of my diapers.
I had a look at my status again today.
Sex: Male Race: Human
Age: 1 Level: 1 Title: Heaven sent child of creation

Skills
Creation Lv1・Status Enhancement Lv１・Raise Maximum MP Lv２・Accelerated MP Recovery Lv１・
Accelerated Skill Growth Lv１
【Concealed Skills】
Appraisal Lv２・Concealment Lv３・All Language Comprehension
This what my newly created skills look like.
【Status Enhancement】
Skill can be used once a day.
By consuming 500 MP, one can increase the ability value of either strength, resistance, agility, dexterity, magic or spirit.
【Accelerated MP Recovery】
Increases the natural recovery speed of MP.
【Accelerated Skill Growth】
Increases the growth speed of sill proficiency.
The increase is 10% × skill level.
【Concelment】
I can hide the status and skills I have specified.
I can invalidate 〈Appraisal〉 up to the level of the skill.
Due to me fainting often or becoming unwell when using 〈Creation〉, I use it sparingly.
I have to do it behind my parents and Airi’s backs as much as possible……I’ve realised that I’m starting to worry them about the condition of my health.
As my maximum MP level has risen considerably, I think it is time to increase the frequency of 〈Status Enhancement〉.
Having acquired 〈Concealment〉, I decide to hide 〈Appraisal〉 and 〈All Language Comprehension〉due to me having a hunch that revealing it would be unpleasant to say the least.
Due to the state of 〈Concelment〉being always on, the skill level has obviously risen.
As it seems I will be appraised at one year of age, shouldn’t I at least hide 〈Appraisal〉? I think it is at least prudent to do so.
Moreover, I want to learn the skills that my parents and Airi have, I have to put that on hold as I have no opportunity to use them yet. I am tempted by the desire to try and use magic, but when I think about using magic in the house, it’s scary thought ……
As such, there is one thing I want the most now is a books to gain more knowledge……
On my first birthday, I thought that I would get books. Though in this world, it seems that it isn’t a custom to celebrate birthdays, so my wish did not come true after all.
While I was thinking about various things, Sarah and Airi entered the room, smiling.
「Louis, today is the day that we go to church and get your appraisal. The church is close by, so let’s take a walk.」
