Chapter 5

005 about two older sisters.

Not long after, the door opened again.

A very impressive noble woman came in, guided by Joan.

Behind the woman, two girls also follow.

They are obviously Gareth’s wife and two daughters.

Savvy members of this phoenix.

As soon as they saw them, he thought quietly that they were beautiful people.

Contrary to Gareth’s anxiety, his wife, Lorona, was very calm.

As soon as she sat down on the sofa in the parlor, Lorona quietly looked at Ewood.

It’s not just watching. Eud noticed that now her lorona eyes were looking at her ‘her own things’.

Even though Ewood was wearing clothes, he looked like he was tearing down his clothes.

His hair, his eyes, his chest, his fingertips, and the muscles under his skin—he looked at everything about Wood.

He wonders what he is looking for there.

Eud hesitated for a moment at first, but soon adapted and accepted.

He is not in a position to judge in any way.

“……It’s fine.”

“That’s right?!”

Soon Lorona looked away from Eud. It was a satisfying conversation.

In fact, the relief that Gareth showed was more conspicuous.

“Welcome to Phoenix, Eud. It’s called Lorona Allite Phoenix.”

There was no way that Eud would not have noticed that that was a sign of Lorona’s own “pass”.

However, she had one gaze that was comparable to Roro.

The second daughter of the Phoenix family, Tiana Allite Phoenix.

She was looking at Eud, as if she didn’t like it.

She has her platinum bob hair fluttering and she continues to give her a strange look.

And her eldest daughter, Selena R. Light for Enix, with equally platinum hair and a ladylike wave…..

It’s squishy.

She is chewing on the cookies that came out as refreshments. Her actions and facial expressions are somewhat debilitating.

Occasionally the cookie crumbs would fall off, and Joan behind her would give it a bit of attention. Selena quietly says “yes,” but she shows no sign of correcting it.

It seemed that she had no interest in her Ewood.

“Eud, as I just introduced, the people gathered here are the current home of Phoenix. And they will be members of your family.”

“Yeah.”

“And, from today on, these children are your sisters.”

It didn’t feel very welcome, so Eud, who knew my situation well, gave only a short reply.

“Come on, Selena, Tiana. I need to say hi to my brother.”

“(Soak-posh)”

“……”

“Selena, Tiana?”

Eud was relieved to the contrary at the indifference that was shown to the extent that it was taken for granted.

Gareth, who used to call him his son, was strange. This would be a normal reaction.

However, Gareth was quite flustered by the reactions of his two daughters. Did I not know that my daughters would react like that?

“You just have to take it slow. It is not good to rush in the process of building trust. You see, darling?”

“Uh…”

Lorona alone spoke very calmly.

Gareth looked a little poked. He must have noticed what he had just done.

Alberto quietly consents from behind.

Once it became clear from this place, it was probably that Roro was the strongest person in her mansion.

I’ve never seen such a big room in my life.

In terms of size, he’s probably the size of 30 or so the rooms (prisons) allotted to him when he was in Dreamland.

Naturally, the interior is not made of black bricks and iron bars, but wood and lamps, all kinds of luxurious furniture.

Surprisingly, this was Eud’s room.

Even more surprising to Eud is that even this is a medium size. It is said that there are many rooms larger than this in the mansion.

‘Even if I put a Minotaur in it, I think it would run around because it was wide.’

Of course, I am exaggerating a little.

Because those minotaurs will run a little and then they can’t stand it and break the wall.

“Jim… you probably don’t have it. Then bring the things you need. Peria.”

“Yes, yes! Here you are!”

An old maid with a strict and principled expression – Joan ordered Feria, who was accompanying him, to bring something. Peria whined and she brought a bag that could be a little big for her.

She straight away she unpacks it and places it all over her room.

Clothes and furniture were already organized.

She had arranged a room for her in advance because it was a decided matter for her to adopt Ewood.

Then Wood tried to move when she saw Feria busily placing her stuff.

“Me too-”

“From now on, you are ‘Phoenix’. At least while you are here, we will treat you, Eud, as one of the sons of Phoenix.”

That would mean to act ‘like a phoenix’.

“So, leave it to us for now.”

“Okay, okay! It’s my job!”

“…….Yeah.”

At Joan and Feria’s restraint, Eud also quit acting.

When the cleanup was finished, the sun went down.

Dark colors filled the sash of the luxurious window.

Eud looked out of the window as if curiously.

“What are you doing?”

“No, there… it’s been a long time since I’ve seen you.”

Dreamland does not have natural light from the beginning.

Therefore, the time there is always neither day nor night, but only the brilliance of gold.

Also, in the arena where Eud was, there was only darkness without even brilliance.

Two years in a world where even the boundaries between sun and moon, day and night are blurred.

Because of this, Eud got the feeling that time was passing after a really long time.

Joan understood what Eud meant.

“I think you must be very tired. Let’s take a break today, Eud.”

“Yeah.”

“If you need anything, just find Feria. The maids, including this child, will support Eud-sama for the time being.”

Joan bowed his head, paying his respects to Eud.

Feria also bows her head once. This time, she didn’t make any mistakes. Perhaps it was because she was by Joan’s strict side, she seemed to be holding her mind as tightly as possible.

In addition, after telling Eud some simple things like the construction of the mansion, Joan and Feria left the room.

An empty room is always a thing. However, the atmosphere was quite different.

There is no noise beyond the iron bars.

or someone shouting

There are rumors of gossips coming and going between slaves.

or hear a lewd slur.

There was no sound.

It was a space like another world that achieved silence.



Eud went to the bed and sat on it.

A bed that feels like your butt is going to pop out at any moment. Like the sofa, it was a feeling I had not experienced for a long time.

But that was the end of it.

Eud did not know what to do in this spacious, luxurious and warm room.



The world turned upside down in one day is so bright, no one tells you what to do. It’s natural. It’s common sense that you don’t need to tell us in the first place.

Thanks to that, I can’t think of a way to spend my time here in Eud’s head.

Until just yesterday, I was just leaning against the wall and idly idly by.

That never changed during his two years of slavery.

But what would you be able to achieve if you suddenly increased your options?

When I looked around, there were many books piled up.

just not a lot A bookshelf twice as tall as Eud was full of books.

No matter how easy it is to make books with magic or printing techniques, they are still quite expensive. But what luxury is that it looks like it has more than 100 books.

But I had no intention of opening the book.

Eud just sits on the bed, not getting anything else to think about. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

For some reason, being so dazed like this was more comfortable for Eud.

He didn’t even have an empty stomach that had been stuck like mud for so long. He was the only food he ate in two years.

This place,

No one’s death was near.

Eud falls asleep involuntarily in the silence that has been approaching for the first time in two years.

When I opened my eyes, it wasn’t my usual black world.

There is no sound of metal or stone hitting and all kinds of pain.

What you see in front is an old-fashioned ceiling. And the cry of little birds outside the window.

It was time to roll my eyes, confused as to where this place was for a while.

A door that had never been opened since yesterday opened.

“Oh, Mr. Eud. It is morning.”

Only after Feria, a maid of her age, came in, Eud re-evaluated her situation.

It wasn’t a dream.

Eud rose from his seat, still feeling the hazy feeling.

Eud fell asleep unknowingly, so the blankets and pillows on the bed were a little messed up, but he didn’t have much to organize.

As Peria entered her room, she glanced at how her bed was almost the same as yesterday.

She immediately seemed to realize what was going on.

Eud was also the same as yesterday’s outfit.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“No, no! You have to change!”

He hurriedly opens the closet in the room and pulls out new clothes.

…….Eud was about to take off his clothes and change his clothes, so he resisted this time.

He says he will change clothes himself after receiving the clothes from Peria.

It must have been a continuing luxury for Eudor to be able to change clothes for a single day.

After that, Eud, who ate the meal Feria had brought, was called to Gareth’s office.

Breakfast was still sumptuous. Soup on bread. And an egg dish with sausage.

The sudden rise in the level of eating has left the tip of Eud’s tongue out of his mind since yesterday. The ruined taste is frantically renewing new tastes.

“It may be a little rushed, but I’m going to start your education from today.”

Upon arriving at the office, Gareth said it.

Alberto and Joan were also present in the office.

The ‘education’ specified in the contract the two of them shared yesterday.

That’s Gareth’s promise and Eud’s benefits. It was also Eud’s duty.

3 years before going to the academy. Until then, they have to accumulate knowledge and culture to the level they desire.

“The head of education is Joan here. Joan will do most of your training. Well, it would be right to think of him as a teacher.”

At that, Joan bowed his head slightly to Eud.

As of yesterday, Joan never has a bad attitude toward his child, Eud, who was originally a slave.

Even now, he treated him as if he had always been a member of Phoenix. It’s probably an action from Joan’s strictness.

….but that rigor is still transmitted to the thrilling Eud.

Even Wood, who had been fighting monsters by star, had a hard time with his eyes under his glasses.

“The main education Joan will give is basic studies and history. And liberal arts- Even if I say this, I think it’s a pretty tight schedule with these alone. And one more…… We are going to provide you with other education as well.”

“Is it another education?”

“Martial arts.”

At that, Eud tilted her head for a moment.

Martial arts – In other words, is it the story of teaching how to fight?

“I know your skills as well as I’ve seen you for a year. You are stronger than most nationally recognized hunters. Would that rank be close to S?”

Joan’s mood changes slightly when Eud’s rank is S, but he immediately regains his composure.

“But your fighting style really specializes in slaughter. To put it bluntly… ‘It’s not polite’

Even Eud had to admit that.

Eud didn’t learn how to fight from anyone. He has only been making technology with the determination not to die.

Eud’s fighting method is only Eud’s technique, and it is a technique that only looks at survival.

Strictly speaking, it would be an area that could not even be considered a technology.

“The academy is a place where many high-ranking and influential people come. I’ve said it’s a place where everything is dark, but basically, it’s a place of learning. That’s why it’s difficult to show you how to fight that deviated from your current rule of thumb.”

But Gareth immediately changed his gaze.

“Of course, when it comes to stopping threats from her daughters, you don’t have to worry about that at all.”

In a nutshell, Gareth’s words meant – to learn martial arts for ‘social use’.
