Chapter : 4

Inside a huge room, there was a huge desk behind there seem to be a mini library and in the front there a table that could fit 10 people. At the desk, a man who looked to be in his early thirties was reading a report.

"Father for the past few days our import and export have been very good, but the linear family have been causing trouble with the trade, that's all father "Roel answered.

'Hmm Lincar' "Tell me if anything too serious happens, you know why I gathered this meeting,?" he asked.

"Yes, I don't how but someone from the inside has sent the message about Roy's birth. Although I could not accurately find who passed the information, I almost cornered the man who tried to execute the assassination. I think 'Zephron' is behind this, and on the one who protected Roy there is no information it is as though he never existed" he said.

"Father should we open the cellar," Ian asked.

"No, not for this Ian we can't control it not yet, and keep scouting " he completed.

"Jenny,"; "Yes my lord", the maid answered.

"Did you find anyone suspicious around Roy?" he asked. " no my lord I have been keeping a close eye since the incident "

"Jenny if you find any kind of lead inform me, dismissed," he said.

'Those Zephron bastards' he thought and grit his teeth.

....

I just sat in my room like an idle duck staring at the book I was holding it was called kids history it was something too irritating to even read.

'huh' I sighed " Jenny " I called.

After I saw her open the door I asked "Have they finished talking? I want to see my father" I said.

"They have indeed finished talking young master but lord is currently busy with some work," she said.

"Hmm, can I visit the library," I asked.

There was a visible silence till she answered "I'm sorry young master but the lord has not allowed you yet",

I grit my teeth and was about to say something but then my mind once again calmed down. It was as though my mind told me that something was approaching.

Before I could react Jenny quickly blocked the incoming arrow with her dagger. She grabbed me and started to run at an unimaginable speed. She swiftly dodged all the arrows and even cut some.

As we reached the corner there was a loud

'Bang',

All the sounds and arrows seemed to have cooled down. Once again I was way too calm.

"Jenny, what is happening is father and mother alright?" I asked.

"That arro.." before I could finish, "I'm sorry young master", I heard a voice and my consciousness become dizzy and I fell asleep.

FEW MINUTES BEFORE THE ATTACK...

"Jenny", the man named zenith called her. "I will be going out for a short time and during this time the chance of us getting attacked is high, very high I want you to closely monitor the area."

"May I ask the reason, my lord?" Jenny asked.

"6th wanderer" he answered.

Jenny showed a shocked expression and quickly nodded her head to prepare for an attack.

....

'Aughh', I groaned. I turned to look where was I but I was sitting on my bed. 'Hmm, the attack, why did they attack now? whom were they targeting?' I thought.

Suddenly I remembered Jenny's action.

'Why did she put me to sleep? Does the think that I am too young to see blood, no then she could have just locked me somewhere.' I thought.

I needed to find out but for now, I can't. I'm not strong enough to sneak into the meeting place.

I needed to wait, at least until I can use mana to do some concealing magic if it exists.

The moment I stepped out of room I once again felt as though something dangerous was approaching me, I momentarily stepped back and turned to see who it was. I could not see anyone but that feeling still existed. As I moved my head to check who it was, I heard the screeching sound. I turned to see and there it was, the same majestic eagle, it had magenta eyes and was looking at the stellar.

I turned my gaze towards the cellar, the door was locked and when I tried to move in a bit closer my head warned me vigorously, at the same time the bird's feather flew in like a bullet and landed towards my leg, it was as though it warned him not to go towards the stellar.

'Interesting, the cellar.'

I quickly dashed towards the bird, as the bird saw me it flew high into the sky its eyes turning white with the silvery lining, and went off.

'Why did it protect me ?' I thought, once again glanced at the stellar and went towards my father's room.

KNOCK, KNOCK

"Who is it?" my father asked.

"Roy " I answered.

"Come in my boy, so what's the reason for your arrival, you never pass by this place?" he asked.

"The cellar, what's there in the cellar father?" I asked.

My father did not answer that question instead kept writing something on his paper. After glancing at me he sighed and said, "Kid, you don't need to know that. But let me tell you something STAY AWAY FROM THE CELLAR kid, you don't know the danger lurking behind" he said.

He did look at me after that and continued writing his little paper.

Although I did feel disappointed a bit, I did not say anything and left his room. 'This world, interesting' I thought inwardly and a smirk appeared on my face without me knowing about it.
