I now know now that the reason mom managed to survive was due to the third skill the mom has. Motherly Love which is also on level 10. Being a pa.s.sive makes it real good but unfortunately, I don"t want something like that in my skill repertoire. Right now, I needed mom"s healing power. She can"t use it herself since she fainted from the severe beating."Shall we bring mother to the Healing Priest?" Yukii asked, her face full of worries as she looked at mom in a poor state.
I did not respond. I already extracted the Heal ability of mom but it was on level one. It can only cure bruises and not cuts which unfortunately, mom has after being repeatedly hit hard. I focused my senses to her injuries and although I was a first timer on this the system popped up.
And with that, my body moved on its own and my mind concentrated straight to mom"s bruises on her face.
My sister"s face who was waiting for my response was in shock seeing the light in my hands. It was a greenish light that many people recognize and needed in daily hunting, [Heal].
"Tetsuo! You know Heal Magic?!"
I did not respond on my sister and focused my all to mother"s bruises. I did not focus on her wounds since my [Heal] is not effective on her wounds. It would be better if my [Heal]is on the higher level.
Yukii"s eyes grew wider as she really saw me use the power of [Heal].
"You! Have you inherited father"s power?!"
This time, I was startled by my sister. What is she saying?
"Answer me, have you inherited father"s power?" Yukii was staring hard on my face, her feet seems to tremble waiting for my answer.
"I don"t know what you are talking about..." I said to her but he interrupted me again.
"I know you have no apt.i.tude as a Healer since I also inherited Father"s ability to discern apt.i.tudes of other people"s power but unfortunately, I did not inherit all of his power. But he said that its better for me to not inherit it so that I can live peacefully. Tell me, did you just copied Mom"s ability to heal? You can"t say that you inherited it, if you really did, you should have manifested the same apt.i.tude mom has on healing."
This time, my tongue was tied. I was about to alibi about that but she quickly read my thoughts and rebuked me. I can"t think of any alibi on how I did it.
"Yeah I did," I answered and looked down dejectedly, still, I did not stop healing the various bruises in mom"s body. The longer I heal, I grew more tired and sleepy.
Yukii immediately calmed down and pulled me away on mother. At that point, my sisters" stat appeared before me.

The higher the level, the lower the mana consumption and, the farther it can e thrown and the stronger the shock damage. Can cause paralyzing effects.
My sister did have the ability that my father have. Although it was a mystery what is the power of my father since I heard he died before I was born, I can see that his power is similar to mine. Some sort of system. From what my system stated, its called Olfactory System. However, the power that my sister have is only a remnant. And although I still don"t understand much on what this systems and such, I wanted to get stronger so that I can stop that lanky guy from ruining my new family.
When I stopped healing mom, another panel after the panel of my sister appeared.
I can"t celebrate yet when my sister dragged me out on the room where mom was resting. She returned to mom and put a blanket to cover her before returning to me.
"Don"t overwork yourself. Its more painful if you drained all your mana while you have no training," My sister said. She must have experienced it on school after having to practice several skills. I was amazed by my sister"s skills since they are higher than usual.
I did not extract any skill yet from my sister since I have no idea if it is a hood idea to learn one without learning which are the stronger ones.
"You have seen my skills right?" the question that my sister asked was really spot on. I did see all her skills. I nodded on her question.
"As expected," she sighed before looking at me with seriousness.
"Don"t mention this skill of yours to others. Mother will know sooner or later so there is no point hiding it from her. Only us know this skill of yours. Father will be more proud if he knew that his will still continue in this world," Yukii smiled as tears fall in her eyes.
She sobbed for a while before she stopped and once again looked at me.
"I already know that you are different from your peers the same age as you. For a seven year old, you are pretty mature," Yukii said to me before she stares hard at me again.
"Are you a reincarnator?" she asked.
I was baffled. Is this the power of the Olfactory Apt.i.tude Checker? Its quite frightening. If I lied, I am sure my sister would beat me up instead. Her skills are higher so I can"t afford to lie.
"Yes. I was 19 years old when I died from the place called j.a.pan on Earth," I answered and told er everything.
She sighed again before she shook her head.
"Figures you earned a power. You reincarnated here, father also did reincarnated from that place, and just like you, he also retained his memories," Yukii revealed.
"What?!" I was stunned. There are too much revelations suddenly appearing to me.
"Have you noticed that our names are different than everyone else?"
Then that strikes me. My sister was right, it strikes me a bit odd. Our names are quite rare indeed. They were names of j.a.panese and although my sister"s name is not present in j.a.panese, it is still identical to the name Yuki which means snow. How about mom? She should be an original inhabitant of this world.
"I know what you are thinking. Mother was a real inhabitant of this world. However, she was originally a slave from birth. Father bought her and freed her from slavery. Since slaves don"t have a name, he gave her a name, Minami which father said means as South but can be interpreted as Beautiful Wave or Three Waves. Mother has three wavy hair in the past, and she came from the south so father called her that. You can"t see that wavy here right now on mom since she keeps her hair in a bun now," Yukii explained.
I nodded. So the family history of mine was pretty deep. Yuki continued.
"Unfortunately, I know father a little, he rarely comes home, but he was so kind to me so I love him very much and we grieved when he died, but luckily, you were born and our grief, turned into hope that you will be living in a world of peace that father have set for you after he sacrificed his life for the sake of the world."
I got silent. Its hard to sink in whatever she was saying, and I am getting more confused about this new circ.u.mstances. Looks like I have to study the history of this world and everything revolving around my father.
"Sis, are there any records left about father?"
