Chapter 3

Moments later after meditating. Delia my mother opened the door and tried carrying me like a child but I refused.

Delia: ohoh my son is maturing quite early huh?

Me: no mom I am already big enough to walk with my two feet.

Delia: uhm Aiden. Is it okay for you to be trained by your grandfather?

What the hell mom I’m just 5 years old how can you make a brat undergone heavy training and leave this kind of decision.

Well I really plan to accept it and I can finally train to my heart’s content.

My goal now is to train my body like those in the light novels from my previous world. Magic was unobtainable on earth but here I can control 6 elements.

Me: yes mom I want to be a strong warrior. (I said resolutely)

Delia: okay if that’s what you want I really am against this, you are still so young and they want you to train already. (Sigh) you have also inherited your grandfather’s hot-bloodedness.

Me: hehe that is how men are mom you won’t understand.

Delia: you stinking brat. (She tries to smack me but she refrained doing it) (Sigh) you really are just like your grandfather.

Me: mom you really sigh too often just don’t worry I will be in good hands. Be happy for me mom so you won’t have wrinkles.

Delia: you! (Sigh) let’s just go to the dining area so we can discuss things with your grandparents while we eat.

We head to the dining room I see my grandparents and father already sitting while they wait for me.

I sit between my father and mother across us is my three grandparents.

Grandpa Leon ordered the maid to bring the food in. We started to dine. After dining we started discussing about me training under my Grandpa Astaroth.

They all agreed about it. I see my Grandpa Astaroth grinning my way. It sends chill down my spine. What the hell I am having a bad feeling about this.

They decided I’ll be coming to Grandpa Astaroth’s place. And guess what my grandpa wants to go directly to the place and start training when we arrive.

My mother is against it so they decided we will leave after 3 days to prepare. I will be coming back when after training for 7 years. I will be 12 years old then.

When I get back my mother wants me to attend the kingdoms institute of magic. No one were against the idea about that.

During the last three days I was bidding farewell to everyone and spent the last days with my mother. Today I will finally set off with my Grandpa Astaroth.

I find it very strange that even our family is a noble. I only saw few servants on the mansion. The security is lax like we are just some well off family back on earth.

I will just ask grandpa Astaroth about it through our journey. I go downstairs i met my mother, father, grandpa Leon, and grandma Mary. Someone is missing.

Me: where is grandpa Astaroth?

Delia: don’t worry, he will be here any moment now.

Leon: Aiden I prepared a copy of every book from the royal library so when you have time read some of them okay.(he gave me a ring) 

If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.

Me: is that alright grandpa? I mean it’s the royal library? Will it be okay? wait is this storage ring?

He just laughs at me. But my mind is occupied by the ring damn hahha 

Leon: your father is my only son and you’re my only grandson. My brother the king won’t mind something about giving a copy to my only grandson. Think of it as a gift (he winks at me)

Mary: I also have a gift for you dear.

Grandma Mary gave me cloak. But it feels kind of strange.

Mary: so you noticed huh?  That is a magic robe it fights cold and has an auto repair function as long as the runes inscribed within it won’t be broken. And when you come back from your outing I’ll teach you about runes before you go to school.

Me: (I accepted the cloak) Thank you grandma I’ll treasure this.

Next is my father Ryan he just gave me a bead. I frowned.

Ryan: ohoh don’t underestimate that bead young man. It is a communication bead when you know how to control mana you can use it in the near future.

Hate to break it dad but I already know how to use it and I’m adept about it heheheh. I pretend like a dumb child.

Me: yes father I’ll do my best to learn a lot during my time with grandpa Astaroth.

My father nodded, smiling full of expectant look towards me. I didn’t know when my grandpa Astaroth arrived but he’s beside the open door of the carriage.

Astaroth: it’s time to go Aiden.

He just said those words to me coldly like a general.

I bid farewell to them and entered the carriage my grandpa followed after and we began our journey heading to my grandpa’s place.

We are accompanied by 4 guards but having my grandpa here is already enough said my mother. We finally left the capital.

I see my grandfather sitting across me closing his eyes. I really want to have a conversation going so I tried to break the ice.

Me: what kind of place is grandpa’s home? (I ask in a curious tone)

Astaroth: it is inside a mountain secluded from people.

Me: oh inside a mountain huh I can’t wait to see.

Astaroth: oh well see (he laughs menacingly)

Oh no my instinct tells me that something troublesome will happen. I immediately change the subject while wiping the imaginary cold sweat on my forehead.

Me: grandpa why is it that the mansion has few guards?

Astaroth: because almost all the servants in the house are soldiers I once trained they are all elites among elites.

Before I retired I ordered them to guard your mother and father. And the personal maids of your other grandparents are secret royal guards.

I am quite astonished to hear that. The servants who seem quite fragile I thought they were normal but to think they were special guards and elite soldiers.

Me: you really can’t judge a book by its cover huh?

Astaroth: speak for yourself brat. You’re so young but you act maturely.

Me: (I just smiled at him) because mother taught me well.

Astaroth: haha as expected of my daughter being a good parent.

Please is it really a good parent just leaving your child in a room all by himself and just feed him from time to time I was like a pet caged there.

But it worked well with me. If some normal baby who don’t have their memories they will be social recluse in the future.

Me: yeah grandpa heheh

I am getting to get close with my grandfather Astaroth after asking him how to use the storage ring suddenly one of the guards screamed.

Guard: BANDIT ATTACK!!!!
