-----------------------------------
The empire of Frolt. The only empire in the whole world, which controls hundreds of kingdoms. It was named after the family which ruled it, the Frolt family, one of the 10 great families in the Western, which specialize in Rune magic.
As the sun sets, in the capital, there remained a slight warmth but being replace by a hint of cold. Even though the sun is starting to set, it wasn't dark but rather it was the opposite, the lights on the streets started to shine brightly filling the whole capital with brightness and liveliness.
In the western part of the capital lies a huge mansion, capable of filling almost thousands of people. Within the Mansion ,a big room filled with books placed on shelves, a black haired child can be seen reading a book. His sky blue eyes is totally focused on the book.
As Hakua was reading, voice rang out behind him. " That book isn't bad". It was a blonde man, approximately 50 yrs old. The man was pointing at the book [Labyrinth Exploration] which is Hakua was reading.
Hakua was dumbfounded on how the man appeared and slip by without him noticing, his [Detect] skill is always activated and how for the first time, his instincts tells him that this man is way more powerful than him.
As he recovered from the shock, he saw another red and white light coming from the man's chest,again he wondered about the light but he paid it no heed and said. " Yes...ummm. Can I ask yo-"
As he was speaking another person entered the room it was his mother, Cella."Hakua, your father said your Gra- ah!"As she entered the room she was shocked at the figure she saw, it was the head of the Auburn family, Glenn Auburn.At first she and Rolant was on the room when a maid knock at them telling that the head of the family arrive, Rolant wanted to command the maids to call Hakua but she volunteered to be the one to go.
"Its been a while Cella. Was it 3 or 4 years?" the man spoke expressionless which caused her to be startled.
"It's truly been a while, 'father'. It was 3 years" Cella replied to him nervously.
Hakua wasn't much shocked, he already has suspicions about the man, for he slip by without him noticing which only powerful people can do, and he was told that the head of the family was powerful.
"You aren't shocked about me Hakua" Glenn said while grinning towards Hakua. "It was as the rumors says"
"Hehe" He just made a wry smile. "May I ask about the rumors. Umm-".
"You can call me Grandpa. Well they told me that you are more matured and more intelligent than the other kids with the same age." Glenn replied to him." well nevermind that lets go, they are already waiting".
Within the mansion a long rectangular table made from a high quality wood, surrounded by luxurious chairs also made with the same materials from the table. On the edge which is for the head, is a blonde man, the head of the Auburn family, Glenn Auburn.
On his side was his wife, Clea Auburn followed by blonde woman, in his mid-30's, The eldest Clein Auburn, she resembles her mother Clea a lot,Besides her is his husband.
On the other side was also a blonde woman, it was Felia besides her is female child with a blonde hair, with the same age as Hakua, staring at Hakua which is on the other side besides Clein's husband.
-------------------
As they entered the room, Rolant was shocked seeing his son and Cella entering together witn his father, he knew that Cella don't get along with his family, There were only 2 of them siblings. Being the youngest and the only heir of his family, he carried a lot of responsibility towards them. Until he met Cella, he fell in love at first sight, for him she was perfect, kind and beautiful.
He wanted to marry her but because of his family he wasn't allowed and was married to Felia Lambert, He was allowed to make Cella his concubine which she accepted.
And now he had 2 children Illia from Felia and Hakua from Cella whom he love both but he wasn't able to spend more time with Hakua for He wasn't always there.
-------------------------
"Hakua I heard in half a year you will have your magus assesment" Glenn spoke. They were currently eating in silence when he spoke.
"Yes. Grandpa." Hakua replied.
"So then why don't you spend the time here while waiting for it." Glenn said while putting the spoon on his mouth.
"That's what I planned Father." it was Rolant who spoke.
"Good, I also wanted to know my grandchild." as Glenn said that a smile appeared on Rolant's face. He thought that because Hakua is his child from Cella he will be treated coldly.
"By the way, Hakua did you met your sister" Rolant suddenly spoke, As he glanced towards Hakua and Illia.
"Not yet"Hakua replied.
"Ohh. So this is Illia you are older than her by a month." He introduced her.
"Hello Illia. Im Hakua" Hakua glanced towards her.
"He-lo.. I'm I-ya" She bit her tongue and hurriedly hid behind her mother which Hakua thought cute.
"Ahh.. Don't be shy.. Illia" Felia spoke. And Illia went back to her seat.
The dinner ended, his mother stayed silent the entire time. For she wasn't much paid attention. After the dinner ended They went back to their room, He stayed with his mother after a while seeing his mother peacefully sleeping, He slip by and went outside the room and went towards outside, near his room, to stargaze.

As he lied down, his consciousness started to drift and fell asleep.
---------------------------
Hakua suddenly woke up, he detected 2 presences outside his room. He hurriedly activated [Hide Presence] and went towards the location. There He found his mother being held down by another person it was Clein's husband, Grant.
"Please stop! I love Rolant. I don't like you" Cella said With tears starting to form on her eyes. She currently being held down by Grant,
She woke up seeing Hakua gone, remembering about the assasination She thought he was kidnapped so she hurriedly went outside to find him when he saw Grant outside.He was the reason why she feel awkward towards the Auburn family, The last time she was here she was almost raped because of him.
"Why? I love you more than him." Grant said to her."Since the first time I saw you, I fell in love with you. Im willing to leave my wife for you. Why!?"
"You're not Rolant!" Cella shouted to her
"If that's what it is, then I will make you mine by force" He started to tear Cella dress and touch her body.
"NO! Rolant help me! Rolant!" She cried.
"No one will hear you. I activated a magic to prevent noise from escaping." He said to her.
A few meters away Hakua can see his mother being held down, he cant hear what they are talking about but seeing his mother's tears, he knew that she was being force. Rage started to build up in him seeing his mother crying. He saw that his mother's necklace started to glow which is Sera
"Sera. Let me handle this! I want to teach that bastard a lesson!" He spoke to Sera mentally.
"Yes. Master" It was the first time he saw his master angry.
Hakua started to walk towards his mother, when he got closer he activated [Phantom Step] which teleported him behind Grant, [Phantom Step] is a skill making the user teleport to a certain distance with a certain limit.
Grant sense another presence behind which made him sweat nervously and backed away for a second, that made him jump away from Cella, for he thought someone saw him trying rape Cella. As he glanced towards where he saw fhe presence, he saw the child whom he just met earlier.
"How did you get in there?"He asked to Hakua, he didn't notice Hakua until he appeared behind him, he was sweating hard and dumbfounded because of the killing intent emmited by Hakua, which is a child.
"You don't need to worry about. After all, you'll be gone from this world." Hakua said coldly.
"Hahaha. What can you do to me. You who is a child!" He laughed but as he said that he was sweating heavily due to cold voice and gaze of Hakua.
"That's right I'm just a child, so no one will suspect me even if you die after all I’mjust a 'child'." He laughed and Activated his skill [Impale] which caused a long sword to appear beneath Grant, facing upwards to impale him.
He controlled the sword to stop before the sword touch Grant. "See Im just a child who can easily kill you!"
Grant seeing the sword appeared beneath him almost instantly without him having the chance to react, became pale and knew he was about to die, "Please I sorry, spare me" He was begging with his knees on the ground.
"Spare you? Why should I? Did you spare my mother when she was asking you to stop? If I did saw my mother will be surly violated by a bastard.!" He was filled with rage.
"Hakua." His mother called. It was the second time he saw his son power, she knew that his son was angry for her."It's okay. Don't kill him, I also don't want to see Clein be sad because of her husband died." She said to him. But in truth she didn't want Hakua to dirty his hands for her again.
"But mother! This bastard alm-" Hakua was cut by his mother.
"Sweetie, It's already okay. I'm sure he won't touched me again. Thank you." She said to him.
"Yes. Mother." He just sighed and agreed. Then he faced towards Grant who was on the ground kneeling. "Be grateful, If only wasn't for my mother, I would have killed you already, but if you touched my mother again there will be no second time ." He warned to him and activated his [Pressure].
"Hiee" Grant shrieked fell unconscious due to the pressure emitted by Hakua
"Thank you." Cella said to Hakua.
------------------------
within a dimly litted room Hakua together with his mother was lying on the bed.
"Mother. Are you still awake?" Hakua asked.
"Yes , sweetie. Why?" She replied.
"I know, you wonder why I am strong." He said to her, he feel guilty because even though his mother saw what he did, she didn't asked about it.
"It's okay, if you don't want to tell me." she replied.
"No, Mother. I also dont want you to worry"
He told her about his past life and how he died. He also told her about how Lan brought him here in this world because of a game and how did he get strong.
"So it's like that, I know you also have it hard Hakua" She was surprised at first, but she knew he was still her son.
"Im sorry, if I told you just now, I just want to get treated like a son to you, I thought if I told you, you will not treat me as your own son." Hakua said to him.
"It's okay. Whatever happens you'll always be my son." As she said she put Hakua into her arms and embrace him.
"Thank you mother." This cause Hakua to feel comfortable and fell asleep.
