Euris adjusted his collar as he cleared his throat. "Did he really...?"
"Ye...yes, father."Seyric nodded his head as he gently rubbed his tummy as he's faced grimace momentarily.
Euris placed his hands as well as rubbed them to his belly."Does it aches...?"
Seyric nodded as Euris sighed and smiled before he pulled away his hands.
"I'll tell mother later. But first! You can have this." Euris handed him the book from his hands.
Seyric scanned over the title as he glanced into his father's gaze.
"Go on, you can keep it and when you're done you can give it back to me." Euris patted his son's head before he smiled.
"I have to go, now."
Euris left as Seyric glanced over the books his father had handed him.
They are 5 books in his hands with different titles and lessons. He sighed as he tried to place them on the table. But eventually, one fell over the floor.
He hopped down from the bed to pick it up. His hands grasp the leather covers and thick papers of the contents. His eyes fixed their interest on the title that reads over 'Tamer'.
He marched towards the chair and pushed the books from the table's side.
He placed the Tamer book as he flipped through its contents.
'In the third generation of Einheart Kingdom has found a new class. King Sylvan Einheart was born from endless love of nature and animals. He created a new level of magic class—Tamer.
From what had originated, Tamers can tame many different species of animals, dimensional spaces, and across the continents of the Einheart Kingdom.'
Seyric eyes never left and barely blinked each time passed as he flipped through the pages of the book once more.
On the other hand, Euris only found nothing in the living room. He shook his head slowly as he walked to the bedroom. The wooden door was slightly opened as he faced them. His pupils vibrated for a moment as he stared a nowhere. Until finally, he entered the room.
A clean set of white paints adorned the walls. The furniture settled from the middle as queen-sized bed boards leaned to the wall.
His wife lay on the bed, back turned on him as he started to march towards his side and momentarily stared at his wife back. Before he lay over his bed and parted his lips. "I was wrong, hon. I should've listened to you."
There was a long silent pause before Ikaria turned towards him with teary eyes. "I'm sorry for putting all this on you..." She sighed heavily as she faced his gaze.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.
"No, don't be. I admit that it was my fault... I'll do my best to make up for it." Euris bowed his head as he wiped the few tears from his eyes.
"You should be!" Ikaria smiled as he pulled his arm for a hug. "Come here... I love you, honey."
Euris hugged her back tightly as he cried over her shoulder. "I love you too, honey..."
In the long night sky, the crickets echoed from the corners of the residents' streets in Chasse'mio.
The candlelight melted under that spark of fire in Seyric's room.
It has now consumed most of the wax, and the string was already a centimetre in size. The fire has already died as the smoke hovers from the air.
On the other hand, Seyric's head lay over the book's open page as he slept in bliss.
***
As the sun peeked through the mountains, the city street buzzed with people again.
On the Cloudflaw residents, Seyric was already up early as he sat by the dinner table with his father, as they smiled at each other.
"Does your tummy still ache?" Euris pondered as he raised his brows at his son.
As Seyric nodded his head. "A little bit."
"Good." Ikaria said.
As Euris and Seyric turned their head toward her direction.
Ikaria held a bowl over her hands, and the other had a big ceramic plate. She placed a bowl of chicken soup before she placed the dish, a big piece of fried omelette sprinkled with parsley on top.
Euris and Seyric's eyes shined as they savoured the aromatic fragrance that vaporized from the freshly made dishes.
Euris held a spoon and fork as he gulped while his eyes were fixated on the dishes.
While Seyric drooled over from his sight of food as Ikaria smiled at him.
"Come eat, sweetie. This is good for your tummy." She grabbed a small bowl and served Seyric the little portions of chicken soup. And carefully removed the bones from his meal before he placed them in front of him.
Ikaria then handed him a spoon as she giggled and patted his head. "Eat well, okay?"
Seyric nodded as he started to dig in from his meal. The chicken blended from his mouth as his bud filled with spices and bitter-sweet flavours. As his face lightened up and continued to gobble up the food.
Ikaria left and immediately returned as he held 2 sets of plates and a bowl of rice, which she placed in the middle of the table. "So, sweetie..."
Seyric tried to swallow the food, "Ye...yes, mother...?"
As she handed plates to his husband. "I heard the Star Crest Academy will be opened up for next week..."
Euris set his plates as he grabbed his piece from the omelette and the rice from the bowl—"Were you planning to send him to school this year...?"
Ikaria nodded as she faced his son. "What do you think, sweetie...?"
Seyric gulped his meal. He fell silent for a moment and glanced at both of his parents. "Would mother be there with me...?"
Ikaria bit her lips as she faced his husband with her brows cleared as she gestured her eyes at him as if they had a conversation.
Until she sighed, "No, sweetie. They have policy rules to train child like your age to not depend on their parents much... But I can assure you. It will help you a lot." She smiled.
Seyric bowed his head to his food and ate the last piece of his meal before he placed the spoon beside his bowl. "Alright, mother. I'll... I'll try..."
He stuttered as he wondered many questions to his mind.
Before Ikaria finally joined and ate her own. "Alright then it's settled."
