chapter 4 trouble brewing birth of a new saint 5th birthday party.

hi Paul here my eldest son is a genius. let me tell you why I think that first of all he reached advanced rank in all sword schools and he hasn't even reached five. t then he used King tear healing magic. so now I'm going to the city of Roa to put a a request for a sword saint to promote my son to the rank of saint. at this time he can probably beat me. as I get into the City I head to the guild to put up a request. but who do I happen run into ghislaine one of my old party members. I asked her what she's been up to. she tells me what's been going on. oh she couldn't find a good party how the other party members took advantage of her all the time she's been ripped off. and I'm shocked to find out that she's accepting a job working for my cousin as a bodyguard."so you won't have any free time then"I asked why she replied. "I'm looking for someone to train my oldest son I believe he can already use the long sword of light" she snorted and said and his age I highly doubt it"I wouldn't be so sure I don't think I stand a chance against him now"I said in the most serious tone I could muster. after looking at me in silence she said you're not joking. why don't you try speaking to Philip maybe you can work something out. I hated the idea of asking Philip for anything after all I still owe him for making me a knight of Buena village he made that clear when he gave me the job. but having sword King

ghislaine look at him would be worth it. so with ghislaine I had to the manor ran into seros had to listen to him lecturing and by lecturing I mean screaming his head off. I told him why I was here. he then said"hard to believe that someone's so smart came from you" which rubbed me the wrong way. so I was led into a room and was served tea and told Philip why I was there after listening to me Phillip said "your boy seems intriguing I'd like to meet him. if he's as smart as you say he is I think I would like him to marry my daughter" I'll reply "don't you think that's a little too soon" Philip looked at me and said "you owe me remember" I had to bite my lip and had to agree. can you at least wait until his 5th birthday we're about to celebrate that. Philip nodding and said that's fine with me. I left the manor and headed to a weapon shop to pick up a dagger Basil's birthday. I I wanted to get him a sword but zenith said it was way too soon for that. after that I went home home with a lot on my mind what is he planning I almost feel sorry for Basil but knowing him he'll do fine.

when I got home I seen basil reading to little Rudy and teaching him how to read. I had basil go outside so I could talk to my wife zenith. and I told her about my trip in about what Philip said Richie didn't take too well after I calmed her down I said that basil would be fine and takes after me after all. after I talked to zenith I went and talked to Basil and told him that after his birthday I take him into the city to meet some people that seemed to excite him.

basil here. me and my little brother Rudy are outside because Mom and Dad and Lilia need to get ready for my 5th birthday party. I'm still teaching Rudy how to read he's picking up on it really fast and he's already speaking full sentences he asked me when I'm going to teach a magic I said not until he's 2 I would start him off at the very basics. I was reading him my favorites. a book about the three legendary heroes who defeated the demon god. Grandma Nana and Grandpa Nix came over to stop by for a little bit they gave me some white training and then said I can call myself a saint class water style and a saint class North style I was so happy that was their gift to me.

then Mom called us in. when I walked into the door now you seen a huge feast spread out before us. and so the festivities began dad was drinking like a fish and I was scarfing my face the food tasted really good. Paul was showing us some sword tricks like sword swallowing that was really cool to see. I asked me if you would show me how he did it Mom immediately interjected and said absolutely not. then it was time for the presents mom gave me a bestiary"wow so cool I always wanted something like this thanks a lot mom. I give her a huge hug. that made mom really happy. Dad gives me a dagger he said I'll get something larger when I'm older and then he starts going off about what a weapon should be used for in that I always needed to carry a sword in my heart which mom interrupted him saying too long. Lilia gave me some new leather boots. I said thank you Aunt Lilia. literally you looked at me and says you know I'm not actually your aunt. I said I know but I still consider you family so can I please call you that give her my best sad puppy dog expression. Lilia sigh. saying that's all right with me. a squeeze her a little tighter after that. then it was time to go to bed.

two days after the party I went with Paul to the city of Roa I'm supposed to meet a few people there. on the way there I asked Dad if you teach me how to ride a horse he replied maybe I'm the way back.
