Planning to go on an adventure

"Son! You are home!" Aiden's mom rushed and hugged him.

Aiden hugged his mom back and said, "Yes, I'm home"

Coming from behind the figure of his mom could be heard a familiar voice, his dad, "Ahaha! I know you would return alive! By the way, what did you do while you are away? Hiding behind some strong-looking, muscular man?"

His mom released her hug and turned around and started berating Aiden's dad. The 18-year-old smiled and told them the truth, "Actually I got a gold medal for killing the enemy general with my bow"

His two parents stopped and stared at him for a few moments.

1 hour later

Now sitting on the table filled with food, Aiden began telling his parents about what he did. Their eyes couldn't stop widening every single second. Then his mom asked, "…You sound like an experienced fighter! I shall give Oliver some food to thank him for training my son!"

Aiden smiled toward his mom, all of a sudden, his dad laughed, "Ahahah! I knew you could and would do it. Since you were bornt to his world, your eyes kept telling me that you are going to be a strong fighter like me!"

Aiden smiled toward his dad too, 'I mean, it has been long since I do any close combats with an enemy… it seems that my instinct kicked in and helped me a lot in the battle….'

Filled with sarcasm, he responded to his dad's words earlier calmly, "Sureeeee, I got these genes for you to be able to kill about 7 to 9 people and shoot the enemy leader right on his neck. You really are strooong and experienceeeddddd"

For some reason, his dad needed to be r/woooshed, the man simply doesn't understand the joke, and it made him more proud of himself, "Ahahah! I know I know! You don't need to praise me like that!"

(I don't know what to call Aiden's parents, it's simply disrespectful to call them by names because they are older than Aiden himself)

The room was suddenly silent, and the air became serious, his mom suddenly grabbed his arm and asked calmly and worryingly, "Aiden, I have a question for you, what will you do now? You are 18, almost 19-year-old, what is your future?"

Aiden directed his eyes to the table and thought about it, 'What is my future… what is my future…'

His mom suddenly said to him, "There's always an option, move out of the house, start your life somewhere else with the money you got or help your dad in his shop. I don't really know what you will do but I hope it would be good"

Aiden took a deep breath before telling her what it was, "I want… to find Ava and go on an adventure, I want to experience the world and not stuck like a turtle in a well. I believe there's so much more to do in this world"

His mom and dad smiled at him, "Your choice, we won't force you"

3 months later

At this point, approximately, Aiden has turned 19, he woke up on his bed, stared out of the window and thought, 'Today is the day I move out. I will first go to Oliver house and probably to the city of Criton… forgot to find Ava because I was so excited and happy to be alive 3 months ago…'

He sighed and closed the window and headed downstair where the food was waiting for him at the table, salmon. He rushed to the table and ate all the food and finished it in under 1 minute.

His mom slowly sat herself across the table and grabbed his arm, "Son… you are moving out, right? Make sure you are ready to experience the world, here some money for you"

Aiden shook his head with a smile on his face, "No, I won't accept this money, in fact, I'm the one that should give you money. You know, I got quite a lot from Sir John, so here is some money"

[You lost 10 gold coins]

His mom was shocked when she saw the amount of money, she stared at it and then smiled at her son, "Thank you Aiden… By the way, it seems that your father wanted to give you something, he is in his shop"

"Dad! Where are you?! Are you in the shop?" Aiden shouted as he slowly entered the small shop.

The next thing he saw was his dad running toward him with an item covered in cloth, "Son! Son! I'm here, I heard your footsteps from far away and grabbed our family heirloom!"

[Acquired item covered with cloth]

Aiden received it and his dad, excitingly and happily told him, "Open it"

He slowly opened the layer of cloth, his heart beat faster as second passed and finally.

[Acquired special family heirloom, Dainsleif]

[Dainsleif]

[Dainsleif, which mean Dainn's legacy, is one of the many legendary swords. It originated from the Norse mythology, wielded by King Hogni. It may looks like a normal, fancy broadsword that was made by a highly experienced blacksmith, but it was more than that. The legend said that the wound inflicted by it will never heal, never fails in its stroke and must cause a man's death every time it is bared]

Short story about the sword

According to Snorry Sturluson's account of the battle known as the Hjadningavig.

When Hedinn offers him compensation for the abduction of his daughter, Hogni replies:

"Thou hast made this offer over-late, if thou wouldst make peace: for now I have drawn Dainsleif, which the dwarves made, and which must cause a man's death every time it is bared, nor ever fails in its stroke; moreover, the wound heals not if one be scratched with it."

-King Hogni

(Note, the d in Hjadningavig and Hedinn is actually not a d, it looks like an alphabet that looks like d but its not d and my keyboard can't actually make it, sorry my keyboard noob)
