Geald's POV
[In this new life…]
And then, I, Mayon, began my new life as a baby named Gerald Aethels, born to a couple named Dorotka and Akseli Aethels in Kate-Raler, YIF. The family already have an older son named Edvin, so my family is now a family of four. Akseli was a fisherman, while Dorotka is an aquatic farmer and homemaker. So, I grew helping out my new family by doing various chores and even coming with me father fishing. These happened before my coming-of-age ceremony day at the age of 15. That happened at the main shrine in the coastal capital. The shrine was dedicated to the sea goddess Vodatuk, who was the goddess of this nation.
And on that day, as the shrine shaman chanted, I, who stood before the altar of Vodatuk, now remembered my past life and its memories.
Eventually, Ester bestowed the Boats System and its abilities, both Primary Novel and Secondary, to me through Vodatuk.
After that, everyone in the shrine saw the system I had now and were shocked and confused. "What was that ability?" one of the elders murmured.
Another elder shrugged.
I, however, saw this as an opportunity to recontinue my job as a ferry captain in this life. But first, I had to work my way up to earn my money to buy a ferry from the Renad System Shop, working by doing various water-related jobs while studying in Kate-Raler's Sea Academy of Magic. I continued to do this even after graduating from the academy at the age of 19. Then, at the age of 21, I finally had enough system money to buy my first water vessel, which was a mid-sized fishing boat and used it to fish and provide fast and comfortable ride for the passengers coming or leaving the YIF.
