Reborn as a hero's daughter, the hero aims to be a hero again.

Chapter XV - God's Gift.

The baptismal rite is a visit to a local church, where they ride on a magic circle for identification and recognise the gifts they each have.

　In case there are privacy issues, the recognised gifts are only known to the person in question.

　But it is the basic three-year-old who is identified. Children who had acquired a gift were usually happy to report its contents to their parents.

　The most senior priest in the nearby church congratulates the three-year-old on their growth and gives them a lesson for the rest of their lives.

　In this village church, the highest priestess was Maria, so she was the one who delivered the homily.

　I was listening to her in the square in front of the church with the children of the village.

'Now then, to the magic circle over here. There, if God bless you, you will be able to perceive it.'

　The Gift is only available to one in a hundred people at most.

　With the number of children in this village, it would be good to get one at most. Nevertheless, the ritual continues in order to develop the children's talents and to ensure that those in power have useful abilities.

　Due to the size of the magic circle, they are taken onto the magic circle in groups of about five.

　There were only a dozen children of this age in all. With that number, there is little chance of a gift-bearer being discovered.

　Sure enough, no child in the first and next groups seemed to have a Gift.

　Finally, it was my turn - or rather, me and Michelle's turn.

　In the end, my outfit was a dress with more ribbons and frills, with Maria pushing through.

　Now I have yet another reason why I can't come forward as a raider.

　I kick up a rustle and hem and get on top of the magic circle.

　My gifts before I was born were manipulation and stealth. I still don't know if these gifts have been passed on, but I was still good at getting under people's noses.

　And since I was able to sense magic when I was around six months old, it's not surprising that I had magical qualities.

　The last time I entered the magic circle, Maria activated the magic.

　As if in response, three words popped into my mind.

　In other words, manipulation, stealth and interference magic.

　In this world, there are several magical systems, etc.

　Attribute-based magic like Maxwell's, which includes the four major attributes, and sacred magic like Maria's, which is based on faith.

　There is also spirit attribute magic to manipulate the dead, and the kind used by the priest who killed me, which is an invocation magic that makes demons and other gods bow down to you.

　The interference magic I had was mainly magic that interfered with matter.

　It is magic that can strengthen the power of weapons in the short term or make armour slightly harder.

　Of course, there are some effects that are so terrible that they kick common sense to the curb if you master them, but only those with talents in the use of magic, in addition to the qualities of this magic, can reach that realm.

　I seem to be able to use magic better than the average person, but it takes a lot of practice to reach that realm, I suppose you could say.

　The reason is that compared to before I was born, the number of gifts has increased by one. ...... Is this the magic that the god was talking about when he said 'service' at the time of reincarnation?
