Chapter 6: Transformation, Level 2

■■■■■■■■■■

I’ve turned six years old.

Today, as usual, I’m doing physical training before playing with dirt.

【Your level has increased.】

"Yes!"

Lately, leveling up has become more difficult. It’s been a while since my last level up.

【Skill 'Transformation' level has increased.】

What!? My skill level increased?

After six long years, I’ve finally leveled up my Transformation skill!

【Transformation, Level 2: Can view and transform information.】

"What the…!?"

Does this mean I can view other people’s stats now? Let’s test it on myself for now.

Skill, Transformation: View Information!

"Ohhh!"

The status I had just been looking at appeared, floating in the air—not as a hologram, but still visible.

"So, it’s the same information, just displayed differently."

Alright, next, I’ll try out the transformation.

Skill, Transformation: Transform Information!

"Ohhhh!"

My status has changed!

Nice, nice.

Now I can hide information about being divine or anything suspicious if someone checks my status. In the Lightstar Marquisate, when children turn ten, they have their status inspected.

Since children's stats fluctuate as they grow, it’s only when they turn ten that their status is confirmed. This transformation skill is going to be a huge help. If people saw that I’m a Demigod, it would definitely cause an uproar.

And if it’s just an uproar, that’s fine. But what would the Lightstar family do if they found out? I don’t even want to think about it.

Thankfully, I can avoid that trouble with this Information Transformation.

Plus, if I can view other people’s information, it’ll give me an advantage in battles. The same goes for monsters.

This is a very useful effect. Information is key, after all.

"Oh, right. I should check if the transformed information is actually reflected in my status. Status Open!"

Yup, no problem. The transformation worked perfectly.

I’ll leave my status transformed for now.

Even when I transform dirt into iron, it still turns into real iron. The Information Transformation only changes what’s visible; it doesn’t alter my actual abilities or skills.

If it did, that would’ve been a huge issue.

"I wonder if I can view the information of that tree over there."

I’m curious whether this skill only works on humans or if it can be used on anything.

"Oh, I can see the information of the tree too!"

It looks like I’ll be able to view others’ information as well.

The real question now is whether anyone else can see this screen I’m looking at.

I hurried back to the annex and headed for my mother’s room.

"Toma."

"Oh, hey, Talia."

On the way, I ran into Talia, Louise’s daughter and my older half-sister by one year. She has the same golden eyes as me, but her hair is platinum blonde, like her mother’s.

In the Lightstar Marquisate, people are known for their blue-silver hair and golden eyes, but the eye color is what’s considered more important.

Golden eyes aren’t common among other nobles; they’re a characteristic of the Lightstar family.

That said, not all the children of the concubines have golden eyes, and their hair colors vary as well.

"Talia, you’re dressed up beautifully today. You look just like a proper noble lady."

"Mother always dresses me up like this. She says it suits me."

"Yeah, it really does. Louise-san has excellent taste."

"R-really? Does it suit me that much?"

"Yup. Someone as cute as you would look good in anything, but Louise-san’s choice of dresses really brings out your cuteness."

"Ehehehe. Am I cute?"

"Yes, you’re adorable."

I’ve seen many girls, even though I’ve never left the estate, but I think Talia’s cuteness is unparalleled.

"So, what’s up today?"

"I saw you, so I just called out. Is that bad?"

"Nope, if it’s you, Talia, you’re always welcome."

Chatting with a cute girl like Talia is something that never happened in my previous life.

Sometimes, this isn’t so bad.
