When he saw the door, Theo fixed his clothes and knock on the door.
“Father, this is Theo” Theo said while in the outside of the door.
“Come in” Heiner said.
Theo opened the door slowly. He saw Heiner sitting in the sofa with Eliza.
“You’re late, I heard that you’re in the library searching something and I heard that you slept again in the library, didn’t I and your mother say that you need to slept on time. We said that you need to stand on your own to teach you become independent as a young age but we didn’t say to you to be irresponsible” Heiner said while had solemn face.
“I’m sorry father and mother for my irresponsibility to my own action” Theo said.
“Heiner, our son is still young and learning. We should not pressure him and I think our son still young to let him be independent by himself” Eliza said while she looked worried and helpless.
Heiner didn’t say anything. Even though he also didn’t want to do this, he had no choice but to do this for his son to mature early and be independent. To be competent successor of the clan.
Theo was only silenced for the mistakes he made and stand there emotionless.
Heiner found it normal the way Theo action because that’s the way he taught his son, to not show your inner emotion and control or hide your emotion as much as possible in any situation.
Even though Heiner found it normal to Eliza her heart ache watching her son growing farther and farther to his age and teaching something to a child that should not, she felt helpless and irresponsible as a mother because she should take care her child growth and teach something that proper to his age.
“What are you searching in the library that you became late and forgotten to come in the office?” Heiner said, he was little bit curious to what his son searching for.
“it’s nothing father, I just searching about my favorite book that I forgotten where the last time i place it and I only find it this evening that eventually i forgotten the time already passed by, I’m sorry father and mother” Theo said with a solemn face like he was not lying, it was vague but also half- truth.
“May I ask father why did you called me to come in the office?” Theo changed the topic.
Heiner was a little bit suspicious to what Theo action by changing the topic and he looked lying to him but Heiner let it be because it was trivial to him and he also don’t want to force his son.
“Me and your mother decided that you will come along to go outside with your grandfather to train you” Heiner said directly.
Theo was shocked and confused to what his father said to him.
“Are you being serious father?” Theo said. he appeared shocked and doubtful even he cannot control his emotion to this unpredictable scenario.
‘Are you being serious?! I can still accept that you guys is a neglectful parent to your child because you believe that it makes your child became independent. if it was the child Theo and not me, I will believe if someone say to me that the child Theo will became rebellious to his parent’ Theo thought but his outside appearance was only appeared solemn.
This still an unacceptable for a 2 years old child that beginning to learn something but thankfully he was mentally adult and he doesn’t care if he stands by himself and he also liked to do his own things. But this news he felt mixed emotion, he felt angered by the irresponsibility of Theo’s parent to their 2 years old child and he was also joyful that he going to sightseeing what the outside of this clan.
While Theo felt complicated, Heiner and Eliza looked serious and worried.
When Theo saw the face of his parent, he knew that they’re telling the truth to him.
“You became more matured than the same age as you, we believe that you can do it by the help of your grandfather and it was for your future.” Heiner said with solemn face.

“I’m sorry my son because of my personal interest and for the future of the clan, I’m passing my responsibility to you when you grow up and you need to be ready as much as possible to inherent the lord of this clan, I know your smart boy and understand what I mean. So don’t blame your mother, blame to me my son for taking your childhood” Heiner said, his eyes looked sorrowful when he looked to his son and Eliza looked sorrowful also and she shed tears when she looked to his son, she felt that she was incompetent mother.
Theo looked to his parent face, weirdly he felt his heart ache when he saw his parent worried and his mother crying infront on him but he suppressed it and didn’t let it take over his emotion.
“I don’t blame you father and mother, I know you’re thinking for my future and for me to survive by myself and our clan prospect and benefit, I understood that this also make myself better than the others and long-term benefit is more important than short-term pleasure.” Theo said solemnly.
When they heard what Theo said, they felt guilty and worried when they saw their son growing up that didn’t let his true emotion express even infront of his parent but they had no choice because it’s the way for their child to matured early and be suitable to the position of the lord.
To Theo the teaching of his father as the clan successor is easy to him because it’s normal to him to not show his emotion and hide it because he doing that in his past life. For him it was a reminder.
“Tomorrow morning is the day you going to leave along with your grandpa, be ready and bring something you needed. That’s all I want to say” Heiner said.
Theo was shocked again, he thought that it will take a week or a month the day they leave but tomorrow morning is he didn’t expect, now he began to doubt if this really his biological parent.
Theo sighed internally.
“Yes father, I’m going to leave now to pack my things” Theo said and began to leave in the office
“Don’t worry baby, I already prepared your things and what you needed so you don’t need to worry but if there still you want to bring you can say to Bianca” Eliza said, even though she was reluctant to leave Theo by her side and she was very worried that her 2 years old child may something happened to him to this training but she had no choice even she was his mother she needed to give in just for the sake of her son growth and future.
“Yes mother, I will remember that” Theo said.
Theo left to the office room of his father and he going to his room.
While Theo was walking on the hallway, he smiled and felt excited to what this world looked and what to see in his own eyes.
----------------------------------------
In the next morning.
On the back of the house Azert.
A small people were standing and conversating between each other.
The training of Theo is classified as a secret and only small of people knew that today he will leave and began his training with his grandfather.
Theo looked at his mother and he felt a bit headache when he heard Eliza saying to him while being worried.
“Did you bring what you want to bring? Make sure to be close to your grandpa and always listen what your grandpa telling you. Take care of yourself…” Eliza told many questions and advise to Theo while being worried and she felt trepidation.
“Yes, yes, yes mother” Theo looked embarrassed internally but he still answered politely to his mother.
After a few minutes but for Theo that few minutes is torturing him for embarrassing.
Many people chuckled and giggled when they saw this scenario including Heiner and Ulrich.
“Eliza you already remind your son many times so you don’t need to worry and he is with your father so his safety is assured.” Heiner said. he was comforting Eliza.
“May and Red will also come along to them, so you don’t need to worry” Heiner introduced this to two elite that will protect Theo and Ulrich to their best ability.
Theo glanced to the two that standing on his side, a woman and man. They appeared solemn and they stand straight dignified.
May wore a metal armor with a bow and arrow in his back. She had a blond hair and brown eyes. To his left side, his name is Red. He also wore a metal armour and sword hang in his waist. He had a red hair and red eyes.
Theo knew that this two can protect him but it also a chain that shackle him because they monitor his every action.
“Hey what do you think of me, I might be old but I can protect Theo on my own and they might only be hindrance to my grandson training” Ulrich said with a displeased tone.
“Father, you don’t need to worry they will only watch by his side to make sure his safety and they will not interfere to your training method but if it’s dangerous point they will interfere for my son safety” Heiner said resolutely and clearly.
Ulrich don’t feel hurt his pride that someone is protecting them that is not the same level as him. He only indirectly saying and reminding them that they should not interfere to the training of Theo.
Heiner understood the implication of Ulrich saying and he knew that he will not do something that will threatening his son life and had no chance to be alive but he also wanted to make sure that his son to comeback alive and unscathed.
After a long conversation, they began to say goodbye to each other.
Theo along with his grandfather, entered to a normal carriage that looked pretty simple and not luxurious and when he was already inside, he waved to his parent through the window.
He saw the face of his parent that looked worried, concerned, and felt trepidation.
Even though his parent lack to some aspect of parenting, he loved and appreciated that he was a child of them and his parent of this second life. He felt fortunate that he had parent in this life and he had a family that on his side.
Theo smiled and anticipating to his future.
In the outside of carriage, May became a coachman and was driving the carriage while Red was riding a horse and monitoring the surrounding.
