"Yup. Duh.

　Me, picking up leaves from the garden with the hem of my clothes open.
　For all intents and purposes, I am a three-year-old boy.
　As I act like that, my mind thinks of something else.

　My conclusion.
　This place seems to be a different world after all.

　The night of the ceremony. When I was brought back from the basement to the mansion above, I looked up at the sky to see what the constellations were.
　I looked up to see two moons in the sky. I've already guessed it around here.

　According to the ancient wisdom of Greece, the earth is a sphere, which revolves on its own.
　So we should be able to see a different starry sky from the opposite sphere to Japan... but as far as the moon is concerned, it could be seen anywhere from an orbital standpoint. And there's no way it's going to increase.

　For the next few days I listened to my family's conversations, but I never heard the names of any of the places or countries I knew.
　I can only assume that I'm in a different world now.

　The only condition for the reincarnation was a body that could reproduce my soul structure. That's all there was to it.
　That's why I had no idea where I would be born, but I didn't expect to be in another world.
　A signature using a key is supposed to be required to move between worlds, but doesn't that matter in the case of a soul?　No need to think about it anymore.

　I pulled myself together and gathered more information.

　My name in this life is Seika Lamplogue.
　The Lamploog is a count, that is, an aristocratic family.
　Although he was the third son, he was lucky.
　If he was born a commoner like he was in his previous life and died instantly from the plague, there was nothing that could be done.

　Nevertheless, it seems to be a rich and developed country to begin with.
　At least more so than Japan. Maybe it is on a par with the Song dynasty, Yisrael, or the Roman Empire, or maybe even more.

　There are still many things we don't know.
　I need to collect more information.

I'll have to get more information. Yeah.

　I took the leaves I had picked up and brought them to the shade of the tree for a moment.
　When I let go of the hem, the leaves fell to the ground in a whiff.
　Yeah, I guess that's about it for now.

''-----Lo_913म् पाञ्चालिका विधि स्वाह.

　I chanted a small mantra.
　Then all the leaves on the ground emerge and expose their veins to me. I gather them together and use my curse power to write words on them.

"...done.

　I give him some light instructions and check the workmanship by watching the leaves fly in every direction. It's okay.

　It's simple, but the shikigami is complete.

　The frame that will be my eyes, ears, and limbs. To be honest, it would be best to make it out of scratch, but I can't afford to be extravagant, since paper seems to be a precious commodity even in this world.
　I suppose I should prepare for it.

　Give one third a crow figure and release it into the sky.
　Give one third of them a mouse form and release them into the field.
　The rest will be made invisible and kept close by. The formula can be used in place of a spell and can be used as a medium for jutsu, and so on.

'Hey Seika!　What are you doing here?

　I turn around with a start at the loud voice.

　A mean-looking kid stands behind me.
　That's my three older brothers, Gurai.

I saw you. I saw you collecting weed. Disgusting!　What are we going to do with all that stuff? Hmm?　Hey, where's the weed?

　I was relieved when I saw Glai scurrying around. He couldn't see what he was doing now.
　I'll have to keep my former life a secret at all costs.

Say something, you fall guy!

　Glai kicks the dirt away from me without saying a word.

　He doesn't say anything, just cleans up the dirt. But he's a d*mn brat. I feel this way, even more so since my students were good kids.
　The father didn't care much for his children, and the mother was a spoiled brat. The father does not care much for his children, and the mother is a spoiled brat. But the older brother is still a decent guy.



　At any rate, when I say that, Grye gives me a crooked smile at the corners of his mouth.

'Don't do it, right?　You've got no idea how to talk to me. You don't think you're in the same position as me and my brother Luft, do you?
Isn't it?
It's not true, of course it's not. It's not your family, okay?

　I nod my head. What does it mean?

The maids said. They said you're her son!　That's why you're an outcast with no magic powers at all!

　I see. I finally realized that I was feeling neglected by my mother.

　I had a feeling that my mother was ignoring me, and that was it. The maids were treating me like I was a boob, and my father and older brother were distant, which was understandable.

　It was useful information. Thank you, Glai.
　I think I'm a real family man when it comes to being raised in this house.

Is that clear?　You're the one who has to do what I and my brother say!　Yes, I'm practicing my martial arts now. You can be a bit of a test subject.

　As he said this, Grye chuckled and inched back to put on a helping hand.

'Okay?　Don't move there!

　I think I yelled, and then Glai comes running at me.

　Is he going to hit us with a jumping kick?　I've never seen anyone do such a thing in battle, but for now, please give me a break.

　I'm going to send one of the shikigami that were made invisible flying underneath my feet.
　Then Gurai, who stumbled over it, fell flamboyantly from his face.
　Ugh, that looks painful.

'Buh!　This, this....!

　It was still going to be coming towards me, so I called back the two shikigami crows I had flown earlier.
　The crows swooped down on Glai while gyaa gyaa, and pecked out their heads with their thick bills.

''Whoa, nah, what the hell are these guys?''

　He resisted for a while, flailing his arms around, but then he shielded his head, cowered, and began to cry loudly.
　I feel a little sorry for myself. I'd gone too far with the kid.
　I was about to pull the shikigami crow away when

Glei!

　Another child's voice.
　I looked and saw my eldest brother, Luft, about to run up to Glai with a piece of stick.

'Stop it, stop it, you son of a b*tc*!

　Luft swung his stick and chased the crows away.
　The crows flinched and flew away together.
　Or rather, I did.

You okay, Gry? Are you hurt?

　I'm worried about my younger brother who cries a lot. Luft has a more decent personality than my second son, and he's five years older than me, so he's very mature. But he's only eight years old.

Why is a crow.... Is Seika okay?
Yeah. I'm all right, brother Luft.

　I answered and smiled back, and Luft looked at me weirdly.
　It's understandable. It's weird that I'm the only one who wasn't attacked.
　But that's all.

　Luft takes Glai, who still can't stop crying, to the house to treat his injuries.

　And me being left alone.

　The shikigami is interrupted, but he's let go. This will make it easier for me to gather information.

　There are many things to do.
　But with my three-year-old body, there's only so much I can do, so I'll take my time to prepare for the next few years at least.
　We have a long way to go in this lifetime.
