Legacy Of Ennea

=== Ed's Point of View ===

Where did Nisan go anyway... I know that he feels really sad, and I should be there for him this time. Last time, he was with me when Grandpa died. He encouraged me and I did not even think that Nisan is sad as well...

Like Eria said, we rely on Nisan too much. I bet Nate-nisan feels guilty as well...

"H-Hey! That is!" Noah said in surprised...

"June!" Leon shouted...

June?!

The wagon is stop moving, and all of us get down...

June is blocking us...

She then neigh, which I don't understand, all I know that she is scared... and I notice that she is talking to me...

But then Erin's face turn to pale, like she just saw a ghost... also Rin...

"E-Ed! Go with June!" Erin shouted...

What is happening?!

But Ethan pushed me to June...

"Go!" Ethan said, he looked very afraid...

I begin to run toward June

I climb on her, and hold her very hard...

She neighed...

And then she jumped immediately, really high...

I can even touch the sky... just how powerful is she. She jumped and we touch the sky not even in 10 seconds...

Then she begin to fall...

"AAAAAAA!!!" I shouted in afraid...

The wind is pressing my face, and I feel my heart is beating so fast. Until finally we landed...

"BOOOOM!!" a voice when June land... and I can see a crater was created.

But I immediately change my view, and looked at a boy that is laying on the ground...

"N-Nisan!" I immediately get down from June, and "Create... Light" I said...

When I come closer, I do not see any blood, but he is injured I can tell...

"Holy Magic.... [HEAL]" I shouted while touching his body...

And I can hear bones creaking...

W-What is that sound... what did he do?!

He then opened his eyes...

"E-Ed... I am sorry..." Nisan said...

"S-Stop moving!" I shouted

"I don't even move..." Nisan said while smiling....

H-He can smile with this condition!

But that is true, he is not moving...

I can hear someone is coming...

I looked through the desert, and see a wagon coming...

That is our wagon!

June neighed...

"Here!!!" I shouted while waving my hand... and they change their direction and come to us...

I looked at Nisan... he is sleeping already...

"Nisan..." I said...

I am sorry for not noticing your sadness...

You are just acting tough, but deep down, you are crying as well... I am truly a stupid brother...

When the carriage stopped in front of me...

Everyone get down and looked at Nisan...

They saw the blood on the ground...

"H-Have you?" Ethan asked me, but then he looked at my yellow orbs...

And he nodded...

While Nate and Nathalia immediately come to Nisan...

"He is sleeping..." Eria told everyone...

Ethan nodded as well...

"Let's bring him to the wagon..." Morgan said...

We carried Nisan slowly... and all of us enter the wagon...

June neighed and she speaks with Erin...

Both Erin and Rin could actually communicate... Erin and Rin understand her words, since both of them are from the white wolf tribe...

Erin hears everything from June... and Erin looked really sad...

"Everyone" Erin spoke out...

And all of us are looking at her...

"I have to say something..." Erin said...

I looked at her intensely... I believe June said something important to Erin...

"Nicolas just tried to kill himself" Erin said...

Now everyone's face changed...

Everyone remain silent...

I looked at Nisan which is sleeping...

Nisan, I am sorry... I will not be a burden anymore...

I looked at Nate... he is gripping his own hand really hard. He feels really bad for it...

Also Nathalia, she is holding her tears...

Ethan looked surprised as well...

"I never thought he will commit such thing..." Ethan said...

Morgan looked away...

"We should watch him more carefully..." Morgan said...

Everyone nodded...

Eria looked at Nisan worriedly as well... I never thought someone like Eria actually could care about someone. She was very cold, and almost killed Nisan a few times back in Sera... but she changes

Nate then faced all of us...

His face is very serious right now...

"I will take June and head for our ship..." Nate told all of us...

"Okay, tell them to harbor above Bazo, they should not be too far from Bazo..." Morgan said...

Nate nodded...

Nate looked at me, and come closer to me...

"Take care of Nisan and Nathalia for me..." Nate said to me whisperingly...

I give a nod... and he smiled on me and patted my head...

T-That...

He never did something like that to me... Nate-nisan...

He changes already, and now he started to depends on me... somehow I feel happy...

I thought Nate-nisan never trust me... but he actually did...

He jumped to June... and June immediately fly away...

"Okay! Noah, let's go!" Ethan said to Noah...

Noah nodded and return to the driver seat...

All of us then return to Bazo...

=== Nicolas's Point of View ===

"Ughh.." I said, I feel my head really hurts. What happened, and I opened my eyes. I can see nothing, am I dead? I thought I just saw June. I feel somehow warm, and it feels really good...

But then I realize that we are actually moving, like inside a wagon...

"We are almost there..." I hear a voice, it sounds like Ethan's voice...

I decided to sit down, but I can't. I found myself become a pillow for Ed and Nathalia...

Oh... it seems that I am still alive...

But it is dark outside...

"What time is it?" I asked...

When they heard my voice... all of them looked at me...

Even both Ed and Nathalia awake...

"N-Nisan!" Ed come and hug me...

Nathalia did the same thing...

Ethan popped his head inside, from the driver seat and he looked at me...

"We found the ship already..." Ethan told everyone...

Eria nodded...

Then after a few minutes, I feel the wagon has stopped...

Both Nathalia and Ed are still hugging me...

Everyone get down from the wagon...

I feel something weird...

Did they know that I am trying to commit suicide?

I guess no...

Nathalia... Ed... both of them had calmed down...

"Both of you should talk with him..." Ethan said to both Nate and Nathalia...

And both of them nodded...

W-What happened?!

Ethan left the three of us in the wagon...

I decided to sit down... and both of them are sitting in front of me as well...

"Ouch..." I said after I seated...

It hurts my back a little...

"Nisan..." Ed called my name...

He is very serious...

I guess he knows what I did... p

"I am sorry..." I told both of them...

I have to apologize first...

Both of them looked at me with a sad face...

"I thought that I was a failure, and I can't protect anyone..." I said...

"You always protect us!" Ed shouted and defend myself...

"Yes! The only problem is... us..." Nathalia said sadly...

I looked at her...

"No both of you are not a problem!" I said...

"Nisan!" Ed called my name... and he is staring at me...

"The next time you try to do something like that, I will kill myself as well..." Ed said with serious eyes...

"W-What?! Are you insane?!" I yelled...

"Yes! I will do the same thing!" Nathalia said with determination...

"Both of you are insane!" I shouted...

"You are insane, Nisan... no one ever teach us to do suicide... that is not a way to free yourself, you have to fight it!" Nathalia said

"I know, the road to freedom is very difficult, but as long as we are together..." Nathalia said

"Nothing is impossible..." Ed said

Both of them looked at each other and smile...

They have grown... both are much more m.a.t.u.r.e...

Even compared to me...

But Tousan...

"You see, about Tousan..." I said to Nathalia...

I should have stayed with him... why did I have to insist myself for going...

"Yes! You will be grounded for a month if you did something like that!" Nathalia said to me...

I looked at Nathalia...

I nodded...

That is true... Tousan will be mad at me...

"I was so stupid... I will not do such thing anymore..." I told both of them...

Both of them nodded hardly

"Promise?" Ed asked...

He looked at me seriously...

I nodded...

"Promise..." I said

And they looked at each other, and shows a smile...

I smiled as well...

Thank goodness... I have a wonderful family... a caring brother and sister...

And I was so stupid for trying to commit such thing...

"Let's go..." Ed said as he stood up...

I stand up as well, Nathalia helps me...

The three of us get down from the carriage and found everyone is waiting for us...

N-Nate?

Why is he not with us before...

He is looking at me seriously...

"Anything you want to say?" Nate asked me...

H-He knows... I looked at everyone's face...

They all looked so mad...

"I am sorry..." I said to everyone while bowing...

"You should be... there are a lot of sick people trying their best to get healty, life is not a play kid..." Doctor Frans told me...

"Oh, where are we?" I asked...

"North of Bazo, we will immediately move to Dwarven Kingdom..." Ethan said...

He seems has tolerated me for what I did...

But Eria come closer to me... and she... punched me on the stomach...

"Arghh!" I shouted...

Nathalia and Ed beside me looked surprised...

"W-What is wrong with you?!" Eria said to me...

She looks about to cry...

"I-I am sorry..." I told her...

"That is for making me worry!" Eria said and left...

S-She is cool as ever...

"Nicolas!" Rin run and hug me...

"You see, you see... you healed me once, although I was sick, I always try my best to recover myself... until you finally come and heal me..." Rin come and hug me...

He has grown...

"Rin, I am sorry..." I told Rin...

"You are my friend! Don't you ever give up in living!" Rin said...

I nodded...

"I will, thank you..." I told Rin while giving him a hug...

"Let's go everyone! Prepare ourselves..." Ethan told everyone

"Okay!" Everyone said in unison

When everyone is moving our equipment to the ship, Nate come closer to me. "Nisan, can I talk with you for a second?" Nate asked me

"O-Of course" I told Nate. He looked very serious this time.

When it was only both of us... he begin a conversation...

I believe he will yell at me...

"I am sorry..." Nate said out of a sudden...

"Huh? What for?" I asked...

Now I am confuse...

He looked a bit sad...

"I never paid any attention about your feeling... I always think that you are very strong, stronger than any of us, which is why I never actually care about your feeling... and I realize until..." Nate said but then he stopped...

I understand what he means...

"Don't worry" I said to him, "I will continue protecting the three of you..." I told Nate... but then he shook his head, "I will protect you as well... no matter what..." Nate told me...

I look at his resolve, and he mean it...

"Fine, we will protect each other..." I told Nate, and he nodded with a smile...

"Don't leave us like Tousan..." Nate said... with a small smile...

I patted his head...

"I will never do that again, I promise..." I told Nate, he nodded slowly...

Nate let a sigh...

"I miss my old life..." Nate said...

"Me too... I miss my life living in Auxem, but in Sera as well..." I told Nate...

"Yeah, that house Lerrich-dono gave you is wonderful..." Nate said...

I nodded...

"Let's help the other..." I told Nate... he nodded

When we are about to help, every piece of crate has been moved...

"Too slow..." Eria said to me and left...

She is still angry?!

I let a sigh, but Nate laughed...

I return to my own room in the ship, and put my sword and staff there...

The Auxillium Staff is still in the storage, inside a crate...

"Yo" Ethan greeted me as he enter our room...

Yes, both of us share a room...

"Hey..." I call his name...

"You okay now?" Ethan asked me...

I nodded...

"Good, this will be a long journey..." Ethan said to me...

"How long?" I asked...

"two months..." Ethan said...

"How about food?" I asked...

"Limited, but we can do fishing..." Ethan said...

"Water?" I asked...

"Hmmm we are depending on the rain for now..." Ethan explained...

"I see..." I said...

There are two beds here inside our room, one above the other. Also, we have a desk and one c.h.e.s.t for inventory...

We put our armor there...

Ethan writes on the desk, he usually using it...

Then I hear a knock on the door...

"Come in..." Ethan said...

Then the door is opened...

I can see Rin... along with....

"June?" I asked...

And she neighed...

"She need to tell you something..." Rin said to me...

I nodded...

"What is it?" I asked...

June neighed, saying things to Rin

"Euclio asked you to lower down the barrier everyday at midnight..." Rin translated....

"Huh? Why?" I asked...

June neighed and talked to Rin..

Rin nodded, and keep nodding...

"I see, so Euclio and Jeremiel could see you and you can see them as well..." Rin told me....

I looked at Ethan...

Ethan looked at me....

"Finally!" I said happily...

"Yes, we can keep in touch with them..." Ethan said...

"Thank you June!" I said and I patter her...

"Nico! Can I play with her!" Rin asked for my permission...

"Sure, but don't leave the ship!" I said to Rin...

"Yeah! She wants to check around the ship..." Rin explained...

I nodded...

That is cute... I never thought June care about the ship...

Both Rin and June left

"Bye June..." I said as I waved my hand...

She neighed as she left...

I looked at the clock inside our room...

It is 5 minutes before 12 AM

"Let's gather everyone..." I told Ethan and he agrees...

I enter the living room first, the living room was bigger than any other room, and there are plenty of spaces, so I activated my magic 'Create, Elements' and the 5 orbs are flying above my head.

"[WOOD MAGIC]" I said and I create 2 square pools... then, I pour some water with my Water Magic...

Everyone is already in the room, all of them surround the pools, while I stand between both...

When the clock shows that it is midnight...

I lowered down the Barrier Magic for the whole ship... I previously casted the barrier magic for the ship...

"Euclio Qiteron" I said as I touch the first pool... and I can see Euclio...

"Jeremiel Maxwell" I said as well as I touch the second pool, and we can see a man with his staff, and a woman next to her...

"Jeremiel-sama..." Rueger said... I believe he missed Tousan already. He was Tousan's commander and protector if I am not mistaken. Rueger is loyal to Tousan only, until the manipulation happened and Rueger's mind was manipulated as well, from Tousan to Clement-tousan...

Using Clairvoyant, we are only able to see each other, but we can't hear them so it is very hard.

"Is that Nicolas's-sama tousan?" Javier asked...

"He is..." Orseus said.

Oh, we should tell them about Clement-tousan's death...

"Nate..." I said as I looked at him...

"Yes?" Nate responded...

"I will tell about what happened with Clement-tousan to them, do you mind?" I asked him...

He then shook his head...

"They deserve to know..." Nate said...

I nodded in agreement...

I draw using my magic, making words with my [FIRE] magic...

'Clement Maxwell has passed away' I write using my magic in the air...

When both of them saw my writing...

Euclio looked away... I guess he can't take it...

Tousan... Jeremiel-tousan is mad...

He hit his staff to the ground, and I can see Kasan hold his hand. Also, I can see him crying.

He then hide his face with his hand...

"He is like you..." Nate told me...

I looked at him...

"I think he looks like Ed..." I told Nate...

"Hey... concentrate..." Eria said...

I-Is she still mad at me?

I return my view to the pool and looked at Tousan, and I can see Tousan fall to the ground...

"T-Tousan!" Ed called his name...

Surprisingly, Tousan looked at us again...

He then stood up, and use his fire magic...

"Are... you... guys... safe?" Nathalia read it...

All of us nodded...

I looked at Euclio, and I am able to see his Ocean Protector with him. So he still keep that sword. And I looked at a boy next to Euclio...

"Who is that?" Rueger asked....

"He is Jaxson Maxwell..." Orseus said

"Maxwell?" Ed asked

Orseus nodded...

"Yes, he is your little brother..." Orseus said with a smile...

"What?!" both Ed and I said in unison...

I looked at Jaxson, and Jaxson is looking at us as well, he has the same eyes as Alduir. It is very weird when Tousan has 3 sons with 3 different eyes...

I don't know about the blue eyes, but I feel a really strong aura from him...

I looked at the other pool and I can see Tousan's face... as he wave his hand...

Then he write something with his magic...

"Where... are... you... going..." I read it...

I draw using my fire magic as well, "Dwarven Kingdom" I write it...

He looked surprised...

"Be... careful..." Tousan write....

I nodded...

"Can we go with him?" Ed asked me...

I looked at Ed... I am sure he wants to meet Tousan, he never met Tousan before...

"We have something to do in Dwarven Kingdom... it is Euclio's plan after all..." I told Ed...

Then he looked a bit sad...

"Let me asked Tousan..." I said...

I write 'Ed... wants... to.... See... you...'

Tousan looked surprised...

But then Tousan smiled...

I can see his brown and yellow orbs shines really bright...

"I-Is that?! Fusion Magic?" Nathalia asked...

I nodded...

Yellow and Brown... Holy and Earth...

"Teleportation?!" I said in surprised...

And a light from above our ceiling hit Ed...

"Ed?!" Leon sound surprised...

Ethan come closer and grab Ed's hand... After Ethan reach Ed, the light faded... and both of them are gone...

"W-What is happening?!" Rick asked...

He is very confuse...

"Is that Teleportation Magic?" Lisa asked...

"It is..." Rueger said...

Everyone change their direction and face the pool...

We can see Ed and even Ethan there...

"W-What in the earth..." Karl said and he looked surprised...

It is... how can he teleported Ed and Ethan?!

I looked around, and I don't find any circle sign like we found back in the labyrinth...

"Euclio-sama... what is he doing..." Javier said

I looked at Euclio on the other pool, and I can see that he is writing something on the paper...

Then, it is showing that...

"Qiteron Kingdom is under my control... we will attack and reclaim Dragon Continent in 3 years..." I read it...

"Y-You control Qiteron Kingdom?!" I asked with voice, without writing ...

He nodded proudly somehow, like he knows what I am going to say...

"As expected from Euclio!" Morgan said...

Then, Jaxson pull Euclio's hand...

What are they doing...

Euclio take his hand back and write something else...

What is he going to write this time, and after a while... he shows me the paper, "Your little brother is annoying" it is written... and I can only laughed...

As expected from my brother...

Then I can see Jaxson take the paper from Euclio... and he read it...

I can see his angry face... now I am laughing...

"He looks fine..." Orseus told me...

"Euclio? Of course he is..." I said...

"Your brother is so cute!" Nathalia said...

I looked at Nathalia... not only Nathalia... Eria, Roxane, Precilla, Lisa and Erin looked the same, like they want to steal Jaxson from Euclio...

"Yes, he looks cuter than his eldest brother..." Precilla said innocently

"I don't know, I think red eyes looked better than blue..." Eria said...

"Really? I think blue eyes looked much better!" Roxane said...

"No... I guess black eyes are better..." Lisa said...

"Yeah, black eyes looked more human..." Erin said...

A-All of them... comparing the three of us...

"Hey! Nico is turning red!" Rick said while laughing...

"W-What... no!" I said and face the pool...

I can hear they are laughing now...

I looked at Tousan, he is now patting Ethan's head... while Kasan is hugging Ed...

They all are crying...

"I never thought that your family is very complicated..." Eria told me as she come closer...

"Yeah, it is too complicated..." I said...

"And I never thought that your father is strong enough to teleport other people like that... that is a strong magic..." Eria said again...

I nodded...

"He is strong..." I said...

I think, he should be the one that held the Auxillium Staff...

"Oh!" I suddenly remember something... and I left the living room...

I ignored everyone after they displayed a confuse face and move straight to the Auxillium Staff...

I immediately run to the storage room... it is near the captain room, I can see Doctor Frans is watching our ship carefully, when he notices me, I waved my hand... and he gives me a smile...

I go to the storage room, and found...

"Rin?!?" I said in surprised...

He immediately jumped out of surprised...

"N-Nicolas..." Rin said...

I also see June with him...

What are both of them doing here...

I looked at Rin's hand...

He is holding a carrot?

"H-Hey! Are you giving our food stock to her?!" I said...

He nodded...

"She looks hungry..." Rin said while patting June's head...

June neighed happily...

"D-Don't tell Nathalia..." Rin said..

I let a sigh...

"Fine, but I won't help you either..." I said

Rin's face change to a happy face...

"What are you doing anyway?" Rin asked me as I enter the storage room...

"I am looking for the staff..." I said...

As I looked around... there are pretty a lot of stuff here...

But June knock his head to a crate...

Then she looked at me...

I come closer to that crate, and opened it...

"Ah! Thanks June!" I said

She neighed happily...

"Nico..." Rin reminded me as I was about to leave...

"Yeah, I won't tell anybody.." I said and I hear a relieved voice...

I left them and return to the living room...

They all looked surprised when I opened the door really hard...

But when they looked at the staff I brought, they changes their face...

I immediately go to the pool to see Euclio's face...

And... his face is like an idiot...

Nevermind... not only him but Jaxson, Kasan and Tousan as well...

But they immediately clapped their hand...

Like congratulating me... but actually...

I begin writing with my fire magic....

'Grandpa... found... this... and... he... give... it... to... me' I write it...

And they stopped clapping...

Euclio just nodded... I give him a nod as well...

While Tousan... he looked sad once more...

"I... will... return... Ed.... And... Ethan... tomorrow... I .... Don't... have... any... magic... left..." Nathalia read it....

I nodded...

And Tousan waved his hand... saying 'see you tomorrow'...

I deactivate my magic that was connecting to Tousan, and an eye above my head disappear as well...

I looked at Euclio... and he waved his hand as well... I did the same thing...

I can see he is talking at Jaxson, and...

Jaxson is exactly in front of our vision and he waved his hand saying 'bye' with uninterested face...

T-That boy...

Euclio looked at me with a smile... and he deactivate his magic...

Wait...

Euclio?! Using Clairvoyant?!

How?!

I deactivate my magic as well...

"Let's head for sleep... Roxane, Rueger and Fredrich will be in the guard duty for now right?" Morgan said...

The three of them nodded...

"I will be going... I am too tired..." I said...

One by one, the living room is left... and as I enter my room, I feel very weird... since I am alone now. "Euclio, Ethan, Ed are gone... this is weird..." I said it...

Nate sleeps with Leon...

Nathalia with the girls...

'Knock knock' I hear knocks on the door...

I opened the door since I am still in front of the door, and what I found is a white fox standing in front of me...

"Rin?" I asked...

"Ummm, you see..." Rin said...

"Can I sleep here?" Rin asked...

He sleeps with... Ed right?

"Sure... no problem..." I said...

I jumped to my bed, and I feel a bit cold...

"Can you close the window? It is very cold..." I asked Rin...

"Sure!" Rin said

And both of us sleep together...

the next day... I was awaken by something fluffy on my face, and it feels very warm. It is Rin, oh I miss how I wake up like this... I open my eyes and found Rin sleeping above my body, but his tail is moving right and left.

It is 9 AM already, I can hear swords fighting from the deck. I believe some of them are training already, while both of us slacking today. "Rin, wake up..." I said waking him up...

He open his eyes slowly, "Good morning Nico..." Rin said to me... I play with his fur, that is so fluffy... also, I patted his head...

"Ehem..." a voice under my bed...

I slowly looked downward, since my bed is above Ethan's bed. And I can see a girl has been watching us. "N-Nathalia?" I said...

"Rin? Did Nisan do something to you at night?" Nathalia asked...

W-What's with that question...

"He asked me to warm him up!" Rin said with a smile...

Nathalia looked at me with her unbelievable face...

"W-Wait! That is a misunderstanding!" I said

She is still waiting for my explanation...

"You see, last night was very cold... so I asked Rin to close the window..." I explained it to Nathalia...

Nathalia looked at Rin, and Rin nodded happily...

I let a sigh...

"Fine..." Nathalia said...

"Hey! But what are you doing here?" I asked...

"I want to wake both of you up, but both of you looked so peaceful. So I decided to stay here a little longer..." Nathalia said...

"Are they back?" Rin asked Nathalia...

"Ed and Ethan? Not yet... I guess both of them will be back at midnight..." Nathalia said...

I nodded...

"Let's eat..." Rin said as he got down from the bed...

I nodded in agreement...

Nathalia showed a disappointed face...

"Hey... how long since the last time you train yourself, Nisan?" Nathalia asked me...

I give a thought...

It is more than a month...

"L-Long enough..." I said...

"Go train first, you need to exercise your body!" Nathalia said...

I let a sigh...

"Fine... Fine... Let's train Rin..." I said and Rin nodded in a sad way...

Nathalia can only smile seeing us...

When we reached the deck, I can see everyone train. Rueger teach Nate, Erin, Rick, Karl, Roxane and Fredrich, while Orseus teach Precilla and Eria?

It is very rare to see Eria practicing with them...

"Where is Ed?" I asked Nathalia...

She looked at me with troubled face...

"He is with your dad right?" She said to me...

T-That is right...

"I think I will be reading books in the library..." I told Nathalia...

"Then, let me accompany you..." Nathalia said...

"Me too!" Rin said...

And the three of us decided to visit the library...

The library is located next to the living room, it is not big... but cozy enough. It got the view to the sea as well...

When I open the library door...

"J-Javier?!" I said in surprised...

I found him reading a book in the library...

"Ah, Nicolas-sama..." Javier stood up and give me a bow...

"That's fine... you don't have to do such thing when we are outside beastman kingdom..." I said to him, and he give me a smile...

"You haven't change at all..." Javier said...

"Am I?" I asked...

The three of us joined him...

"Nicolas-sama... I have a present for you..." Javier said as he take something from his bag...

Javier then take a book from his bag and give it to me...

I take the book from him, and when I check the book...

"Advance Fire Magic Book..." I read it...

I looked at Javier, as he smile...

"T-Thank you! Hey! This is supposed to be very expensive!" I told Javier...

Yes, it could cost more than 5 golds...

You could buy a small house in south sera with that...

"Don't worry... it is just my gratitude for you..." Javier said with a smile...

"Thank you..." I said to him once more...

I open the book and read it...

"Battlecry?" Rin asked me...

I nodded...

Battlecry is a magic to make our ally fight without fear and increase their morale. But on the other side, it is a very risky spell...

They could die because of the confident...

And I try it anyway...

"Create, Elements" and the five spheres popped out...

I read the incantation on my mind, and aim for Rin. "[BATTLECRY]" I said... but...

"Did it work?" Rin asked me

I looked at my red orb, and it do not shines...

"I guess it doesn't work..." I said

This is the first time I fail in using magic.

"I guess that might be your limit..." Javier said while looking at me...

"Limit?" I asked...

"Yes, even voiceless incantation has it limit, try to cast it while speaking..." Javier said...

I then do what he wants...

"The spirit of fire, bless your servant with your fire in heart... [BATTLECRY]" I said while aiming at Rin... and the red orbs is activated.

It shines brightly, and I can see Rin shines red for a while, but it disappears already.

"Do you feel something?" I asked Rin

"Yes! I feel that I can defeat Navroth in a hit!" Rin said with his smile...

T-That is too much...

Even Nathalia laughes

I deactivate all of my magic....

And the effect on Rin is gone...

"In a hit? Am I insane?" Rin said, the three of us laughed after seeing that instant changes...

At midnight...

"Hey Ed..." I called his name as he return...

He looks very happy now...

"Hello!" Ed said energetically...

I can see his face, it is brighter. Of course, he need to meet Tousan actually...

"Your father said, that he can bring all of you here if you want..." Ethan come closer to me as he said that...

I looked at him in the pool...

Yes, we are having our conference now, along with Tousan and Euclio...

"No, we have to take over Dwarven Kingdom in a year..." I said

I write it with my fire magic as well, so both of them understand... and Tousan looked really sad when he read that.

"But Nisan!" Ed tried to stop me...

"How about the people? They will live in fear if we do not stop her! How about Clement-tousan! Also, Grandpa?" I yelled to Ed...

Ed then remains silent...

"Both of you, calm down..." Rueger said...

I looked at him...

But Rueger looked at Ed...

"Edmund-sama... it is okay if you choose to stay by Jeremiel-sama side" Rueger said

I am surprised with Rueger's word, then I looked at Ed...

"I believe Nicolas-sama won't mind with any path you choose..." Rueger explain to Ed...

Ed then looked downward...

"I-I just want us to live happily..." Ed said

He is indeed a Maxwell, who cares only about ourselves...

"Hey! Your father write something..." Eria said...

I looked at the pool...

"Please... don't.... fight.... there... are... still... a.... lot.... of.... ways" Nathalia read it...

I looked at Ed...

"As Rueger said... I don't mind, although I really want you to be here with us..." I said to Ed...

"Ah, also Nico..." Ethan called my name

I looked at Ethan...

Ed then left the living room...

I let a sigh...

"Nico, I will take care of Ed!" Rin told me, then I looked at him and I nodded...

"Thank you, Rin" I said...

He nodded and left...

I return my view to Ethan

"What is it about?" I asked. Ethan is holding a crate since he talk with me. "Your father want to examine the staff, he said that he wants to borrow the Auxillium's staff..." Ethan said...

I looked at everybody...

They all looked agreed with that... but not Nathalia. She looks a bit suspicious, "Are you sure?" Nathalia asked Ethan.

Ethan looked at Nathalia, "Of course, it is Nicolas's Tousan after all..." Ethan said. "No, that's not what I mean, what I mean is, can he be trusted?" Nathalia asked...

Ethan then nodded...

I am still looking at Nathalia, and Nathalia let a sigh...

"Fine" Nathalia said...

I nodded as well... "I can't really use this staff as well, I guess Tousan is the right one..." I told Nathalia, and Nathalia nodded...

I understand how she feels, she never meet Tousan, so she look at him as a stranger.

I put the legendary staff inside the crate and Ethan close it.

Ethan give a thumb to the eye above my head, and when I see the pool, Tousan raise his staff and the yellow and brown spherical orbs shine...

A light, hit the crate and within a second, it is gone...

I looked at the pool, and see the crate in front of him.

I really hope that I can use Teleportation Magic.

I looked at the other pool and found my new brother is looking at us...

When I looked at him closely, I can see he has a scar on his cheek...

I then point at my cheek, asking what is wrong with his cheek...

He then point at his cheek, making sure that it is correct...

I nodded...

He then use his hand and then swiping his hand to his cheek...

Is that a sword?

I take out my sword and show it off to him, asking whether it is a sword or something else...

But, when he looked at my sword, he looked surprised... and he nodded anyway...

He then left from our vision...

Is something wrong?

After several second, I found him bringing Ocean Protector...

He then point the sword, and point it to me...

Is he saying like 'Is this your sword?' or 'Did you give Euclio this?' or what...

I then use my fire magic to write...

'That sword is from me, for Euclio' I write it like that...

Then he write something on a paper, and after waiting for a while. 'How about your sword?' he asked me....

I write 'This is from Euclio'

Then he smiled...

He is looked like a good boy...

Now silence between both of us...

Eria come closer to me, "So, he train swordsmanship?" Eria asked...

"It seems so..." I said, Eria notice it from the scar on his face...

I wonder if Kasan knows about it...

I looked at the time, and it is 12.15 AM after midnight...

"I guess, it is time already..." I said

Everyone nodded...

"Yes, it is time to stop the meeting..." Nathalia said...

There are only several people in the room, some of them are in their watching duty...

I looked at my brother once more...

And he shows me a paper, and I can see a question there...

"What is your strongest magic?" is the question, everyone are looking at the question as well...

I give a thought...

"Gravity Magic?" Eria asked...

"Thunder Magic?" Nathalia asked...

"Healing Magic?" Rueger asked...

Rueger... that is not a strong magic, he sure love peace...

"Illusion Magic?" Ethan asked...

Hmmm... What is my strongest magic, I guess for now it is Eria's answer....

"Gravity Magic" I write it using fire magic...

Then he looked a bit surprised and also amazed. Somehow I feel pretty proud with my ability.

I guess I should told him that we should put on the barrier again, so we have to cut the connection...

'It is time already' I write it with fire magic...

He nodded in understanding...

Then he wave his hand...

Such a cute boy... I wave my hand back at him...

And that is how my day end, with my first conversation with my new brother, Jaxson Maxwell.
