One Shot: The Young Lazy Lord of the Combat Noble Family.

In the Jiras Empire there is a family. A Noble Family. They were called the Brenier family. They had existed ever since the Empire was created. They were the known for their magic swordsman abilities across the continent. For centuries this family had lived. Everytime there was a reform in the Empire they were there. In every war you could find a trace of them. Their power is said to exeed even the Royal Family. They managed a lot of land. They kept law and order. The people loved them. The Nobles respected them. The Royals were wary of them. And the other Empires feared them. 

Within the family mansion, a grand place, lied a young boy. Yes, the Young Lord of the Brenier family. The laziest Young Lord in the family. He is also the richest person in the mansion. The Young Lord was the leader of finance within the family. Although he wouldn't fight or participate in tournaments he took his job as the Finance Head seriously. It's one of the reasons he still has a place within the family. The fact hes so lazy about everything else annoys his Father, who believes that if this lazy son put the effort in he could beat even his brothers who were known for combat prowess. 

The fact that the Young Lords lazy behavior was the only thing keeping him from being the official heir annoyed his brothers. But due to this they had a chance so instead of showing their disdain and somehow incourage him to get stronger they simply don't bother him. His mother, The Lady of the family is constantly planning how to let her son live in comfort. Which annoys the father. Rumors of what was happening inside the family spread out into the continent about the inside situation pushing tensions high among the family. But when the aunts and uncles of the family who left to form branch families heard they immediatly returned to the mansion. Their goal? To take control of the Young Lord and have their own status elevated. So the family was devided. One side wanted the Young Lord to stop being lazy. The other trying to keep the Young Lord lazy. All the while the person in question relaxes while managing the finances of the family. Constantly increasing the funds of the family and the land. 

POV: Young Lord Darrus

"Darrus get up!"

"Too tired sis, wake me tomorrow..." - Darrus

I feel a arm dragging me off the bed. I open my eyes to see my younger sister, her cheeks are red with irritation, or is anger? 

"GET UP!" - Young Lady

She pulled me off the bed with a loud bang. 

"I'm up! I'm up!" I drag myself off the ground.

"What's up Littler Moon." - Darrus

"Why do you keep calling me that! My name is Elizabeth and you know it!" - Elizabeth

"You will always be my Littler Moon haha!" - Darrus

"Come on its Fathers birthday today! You need to get ready!" - Elizabeth

"Fine, fine, you get going I'll get dressed." - Darrus

She puffs out her cheeks and runs off. Huh... Fathers birthday... I wonder which gift I should give him... Maybe both? Yeah I think that'll work. I lay on my stomach and reach under my bed. Is it that bag? Soft Leather? Thats it! I get up with a massive chest. It's a bit hard to lift but I put it on my shoulders and start heading to the dining room within the mansion. I walk towards the door and I hear the servants open the door for me.

"Respects to Young Lord!" - Maid

"Young Lord let this servant carry the chest for you! You'll hurt your back like that!" - Servant

"No way! Greere, Megan! This is my present to Father. No one is aloud to touch it but me or him!" - Darrus

"Understood!!"  - Servants

I start heading to the dining room once again. I stop by my fountain that I bought. It's basically a shower I made just for me! It's cold but its relaxing during the day. Hmm I did sleep to midday again huh. All the other Nobles are probably in the Dining Room already. 

"We will wait till you finish Young Lord!" - Servants

They leave me alone and I put the chest down. Then take off the clothes I slept in last night. Huuu thats cold! Warm me sunlight! Ahh I'm getting used to it now. Scrubby Scrub Dub. 

A few minutes later I finish and get out of the fountain shower. Some new clothes are waiting for me. There we go! Nice clean and comfortable... I could get some more sleep... Wait FATHER! Got to keep my mind on track. Come here Chesty! This thing looks heavy but its really light, main problem I have is its length although its width is small.

Let's go to the dining room! Oh, guards are here now. 

"Reporting to Young Lord!" - Servants and Guards. 

"Relax guards. Ease down servants. Let us head to the Dining Room!" - Darrus

I start lugging to the dining room once again.

Narrator POV: Dining Room

  Within the dining room is a hubbub of Nobles and The Brenier family. The giant tables are constantly stocked with wine and food. At very fore front of the party is man with piercing blue eyes. His body seems constantly ready for battle. He is the Master of the Family. Darrus's father. Ray Brenier. 

"Lord Brenier is the Young Lord Darrus coming today? Me and my family have heard alot about him." A fattish noble with a mocking grin talks to Ray. His name Lord Normen Terrace. 

"Who knows. That boy does everything at his own time!" - Lord Brenier

A slight hubbub rises around. Ray and Terrace look around and spot him. Young Lord Darrus a chest on his shoulders not looking weighted in the slightest. Darrus looks around and spots his Father. He smiles and walks over with incredible swagger. Although it isn't the noble gait that nobles do. He still gives off a indominable air. That say's, You wanna mess with me? Go die filthy savage!. 

"Birthday Father! I brought you a gift." - Darrus with a large grin.

"Lets open then son!"- Ray laughs and hugs his son. 

Terrace has a grimace on his face wondering how the Laziest Young Master seems to be so loved by Lord Brenier. 

Ray grabs the chest with ease and puts it down. He then tries to pull it up. It doesn't budge. 

"Its not opening..." - Ray frowns. 

"This chest is made with a specialized lock, so ofcourse haha!" - Darrus. Darrus reaches down and presses on different spots on the chest. The chest pops open. 

It reveals two items. A jade blade. Then a ruby bow. 

"Wow!" - Other Nobles. The other nobles are amazed by such a display of wealth. Although the ruby bow wouldn't be that useful the jade sword would be. Plus, the weapons were made out of extremely expensive materials. 

"Father try the bow! It uses special engineer to actually work! It does require a lot of strength but the power is intense!" - Darrus

"Haha, Son I can't use the bow here. This is a party after all." - Ray. 

"Oh well. I'm going to eat and relax father. You enjoy the party!" - Darrus. Darrus leaves the present to his dad behind. Grabs a drink of wine. Takes a few sips and puts it to the side. Then he sits on a comfortable chair and immediatly falls asleep.

...

The nobles are astounded. The Brenier family is going on like nothing happened. The fathers mood seems to have definitly risen. The nobles who thought the Breniers wealth was small had to change their plans of taking advantage of the Brenier family after seeing this. Poor? How could a poor family give weapons like that! Moreover it was only the laziest sons gift! What about the others!
