(IN THE KITCHEN)
SFX: BOOM!
“What was that?” I said to myself worriedly, The sound came from upstairs I quickly rush up the stairs and this is what I saw,
Whitlock with his back against the wall with his hair blown up from the explosion there seem to be some minor cracks at some furniture and walls, I quickly ran to him and hugged him “Whit!, are you okay!” I shouted “I’m okay mom,” he said to me
After hugging him West got here after sometime later I realized Whitlock seems a little off. I can sense something, Mana! Has he already unlocked his mana core this fast so I asked him?
“Have you unlock your mana core!” I asked Whit “I think so?” he responded, Both I and West were frozen for a while’
“How are you able to unlock it at such a young age?!, I asked some normal kids heck! even nobles unlock around 9 years old, And he unlocked it at 5 years old after that I don’t remember much because I fainted out of shock,
(IN MY ROOM)
“Dad, I think mom fainted” I sighed out of relief “Did you actually unlock your mana core,” My father said to me with a shocked expression “Probably,” I said out of tiredness “Wow, You should get some rest, I can take care of your mother okay?” he said
“Okay” as I made my way to my room I started to feel dizzy and tired good thing, I manage to get to my bed before I became unconscious after that, I was asleep a whole day “I didn’t know unlocking your mana core could get me so tired” I groan
“Of course your body wasn’t used to your mana yet that’s normal, “ my father said while leaning against the door frame “c’mon let’s have some breakfast,” said while before walking away
I followed “morning mom,” I said to my mom “morning honey” I could still see the worried expression on her face “I’m fine mom,” I said before she could say anything and took a seat
Her expression changed from worried to relief
“Okay I’m going to train you, son,” my dad said to me, I almost choked on my drink “already?!” I shouted louder than I intended “Don’t you wanted it!?” my dad asked with a confused expression “No! I’m excited but I thought you said only when I’m 7 or 8
“Well, you already unlock your mana core, So why not?” He answered with a big smirk on his face “when do we start?” I responded with a smirk
“tomorrow, before we finished moving out, And going to with you uncle Waylen,” He said I don’t know how Mr. Waylen looked but if I remember, My father told me he was a tall guy with round glasses and white hair and beard
You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.
After we finished eating I cleaned our dishes, And my parents started packing our stuff
And I offered to help but my dad said I should cut practice swinging a sword
So I got outside and calmed my breathing got into my stance, I already know some moves from my previous life but I won’t try them I’m still not sure if my body can handle it, So I just stuck to some basic like swinging, parrying, and blocking
30 MINUTES LATER
After some time I have gotten back inside the house took a shower and sleep like a puppy my body couldn’t keep up with my training, It’s fine since I’m only a kid I shouldn't have expected much but were going to move in 2 days I believe,
As I woke up, I went downstairs and took a bath, and help mom with setting up the table,
After we finished eating breakfast my dad got me a wooden sword as a gift
I went outside and began to stretch my dad got a twig and points it at me "C’mon little boy”
I rolled my eyes and got into my stance calming my breathing I began to run towards him,
As I swung my sword I realized he's much faster and stronger than me but I can see an opening every 11 swings sound the side of his body
I just have to time this right and I will be able to hit him, After 10 hits I saw it! The opening I began to step forward and swing against his open left side
SFX: Thunk!
“Wha-” he manages to parry it, It looks like he was baiting me into it, As he began to swing the twig at me I manage to dodge it and jump toward him while letting my sword go so I can be out of his eyesight,
After I did that he blocked the sword then realized I was gone but it was too late, I was already behind him I grab a stick and jump to his back I hugged him and hovering my stick by his neck “I win” I said with a smirk on my face
A smirk began to rise up from his face grabbing me and carrying me with his shoulder,
“Where did you learn that?” while he continues to walk sound the village “some books,” I said quietly “Some books?!, what kind of books have you been reading?” he shouted
“I don't even know myself” we began to laugh before putting me down
“How about we look at some swords and if your luck I can get you one,” he said to me
“Really?” I said excitedly “of course your dad used to be an adventurer you know,
That’s how I met your mother when I first saw her beautiful eyes-
“That’s enough dad I don’t really like a love story” I cut in before he could say anything weird
“What kind of party we're you in dad?” I asked as we walked towards the blacksmith
“I was a brawler and your mom was a mage,” he said
“You were an abnormal?!” I shouted “Of course your dad was super awesome” he started to brag, I rolled my eyes and chuckled
“Were here!” he said to me excitedly “Shall we go in?” I asked he nodded as I looked at him
We go inside and I saw is Swords, and shield, spears, and even gloves
And at the right side looks like some staff and armor on the ground as we continue to walk forward,
We met a tall guy sound 2 meters tall with the broadest shoulder I have ever seen in both of my life, After we walked closer he had a bright smile on his face and hugged me and lifting me up “Is this your sone West?”
“Long time no see Rhohand,” he said “ I CAnT BReaTh” I tried to say as he began to put me down “West this is my friend Rhohand, We used to be in the same party with your mother”
“Nice to meet you sir” as I began to bow
“He isn't surely your son,” He said socking me and my father “Huh?” my father shouted” “He’s too mannered,” He said while I began to chuckle “Oh shut up!” We all began to laugh for quite a while
After we laugh my father said ”Oh! Yeah, Rhorand do you have any daggers?” he asked
“Of course” he shows us a dagger it was a long dagger bigger than my face and it looks like a katana?! That's why the top is like flat but was sharpen
“This use to be a kind of sword that I haven't seen before, It was long sharp but flat behind I swung it against a tree and it broke, Sorry West this is the only thing that is closest to a dagger,” Rhorand said
“Oh it's fine we’ll look somewhere else-” “ No it's perfect” I cut in while picking it up “Are you sure Whit?” my father asked “yeah” I answered immediately
“How much is it Rhohand?” my father asked “For you, Probably free It’s already broken, and plus we go way back,” Rhohand said which shocked me and my dad “Are you sure?!” I asked
“Pay me back when you become the strongest, Promise?” he said to me “promised” I responded
After that, we got home fell into my bed after reading some books ‘tomorrow we're moving so soon’ then I fall asleep
