He had followed his mum to the market numerous times when he hadn't gotten to his teenage age. Even when he got to his teenage age, 13-14 years old, he does still follow his mum to the market sometimes before it stopped.

..Now, when saying he had followed his mum to the market numerous times doesn't mean it was that much.

Not all the time his mum wants to go to the market back then that he does follow her. But as far as she was heading to the market, a servant must follow her.

He had followed his mum to the market numerous times, but he hadn't really gotten to visit his dad's animal field properly? Well, that's how things are like sometimes.

..But what matters was that he was here now, and he was exploring to the best of his capability.

As he walked around, he'd touch a certain animal and ask a certain worker,

"How much does this cost?".

The worker would tell him the cost, the number of copper coins that would be needed to purchase the animal. And so he kept on doing, he'd walk, touch a certain animal, and ask for its cost.

The workers were enjoying his stay here...yes, he was asking questions, but he wasn't asking irrelevant questions, and he wasn't disturbing their work. The ones he was questioning were the ones that weren't busy with anything at that moment.

Ethan wasn't even with him at this moment, he was handling some things, he was busy as well. Once he was done handling those things, then the training would begin...he'd begin teaching Aiden how to ride a horse.

..As for Aiden, he just kept exploring and exploring, nothing held him back.

Right now, Ethan was walking toward Aiden, seems like he was done handling the things he was handling. The moment he reached where Aiden was standing, he uttered to him,

"So, you enjoying exploring this animal field?".

"A lot, dad". Aiden responded.

Ethan nodded his head with a little smile on his face, then he said to Aiden once again,

"Let's do some little exploring together, you know, father and son exploring".

"That would be nice". Uttered Aiden.

..And with that, both of them began walking...it was about time for father and son to explore.

They walked around the animal field, and Aiden kept asking his dad questions like, 'How much does this cost?'.

He had asked a lot of the workers this question, and he was still asking his dad? Well, let's say he wanted to confirm, he wanted to keep a conversation going. He'd touch a certain animal and ask for the price, and his dad would tell him.

Apart from that, they talked about other things concerning the animal field. He asked his dad some other questions, and Ethan answered all of them...

Right now, they had walked around to their satisfaction, then Ethan glanced at Aiden and said,

"It's about time for the training to begin, you ready?".

"Yes". Aiden responded nodding his head a little.

..The truth was, he was a little anxious, but he was ready.

This was his first time learning how to ride a horse...why wouldn't he be anxious?

"Let's head over to the place where I parked the horse, that's the horse we'd use for the training. And the training would take place there, others mustn't be disturbed".

And with that, both of them began walking toward where Ethan parked the horse. As they strolled, activities were still taking place...buying and selling were still taking place.

..Have you been taught how to ride a horse before? Was it a nice experience?

Well, Aiden was about to begin learning how to ride a horse, wondering what the experience would be like for him. The both of them reached where the horse was, and Ethan untied it.

..Now, they were gonna start from the basics.

Before Ethan was gonna begin showing him anything practically, he was gonna relay some information to him concerning horse riding.

"Now, we are gonna start from the very basics. I'm gonna tell you some things concerning horse riding, listen attentively".

And Aiden did just so, he was listening attentively as Ethan spoke. Ethan told him a lot, things Aiden wasn't aware of. And you know what? Aiden was learning a lot...soon, he was gonna practice those things.

You know, whenever Ethan wanted to ride him somewhere, mostly, to school, his own was to mount the horse and Ethan would put it in motion.

In fact, when he was still a small boy, when he hadn't gotten to his teenage age, Ethan does help him sit on the horse. And when he had balanced on the horse, Ethan would begin riding it.

..He didn't know the kind of work that was being done to put the horse in motion.

Now, it wasn't too much work, but work was still done to put a horse in motion. And it would be very easy for someone that had learned to ride a horse already.

Ethan kept relaying information to Aiden, and Aiden was understanding all and nodding his head. And after Ethan was done relaying information to him, he inquired of him...

"So, you get that?".

"Yes". Aiden responded.

"These are just part of the things you need to know, I'd relay the rest to you later. As for now, let's practice some. Learning how to ride a horse wouldn't happen in one day, it would take days. It might even take months concerning the amount of time you spend learning in a day,

Do you have enough time to keep practicing? Yes, that's what would determine how fast you'd become perfect in learning how to ride a horse".

Another information, Aiden took it in, and this was the thought that ran through his mind right after,

'Would I have lots of time to practice? I have a main quest to accomplish'.

..Yes, accomplishing his first main quest was more important, other things can come after that.

Like, there was a lot to do after he had accomplished the quest. Number one, having proper sex with Anne, number two, going hunting with his friends...and so on.

"You'll sit in front of the horse, I'd sit behind you, and we'd begin riding it together, let's say I'd be assisting you. You have to learn how to balance on a horse while riding it and so on".

Ethan and Aiden mounted the horse, and as said, Aiden was sitting in front, while Ethan was sitting behind him. And sitting on the horse, Aiden discerned a lot of things.

Now, if he dares to ride the horse on his own, he was gonna fall...that's for sure. All that his dad told him regarding horse riding, he wouldn't be able to practice on his own yet, he needed help which his dad plans on rendering him.

..He discerned some other things, but let's leave it at that.

"Now, it isn't only about sitting on a horse, you sat on it to ride it, right? Now, this is how you get a horse to begin moving". Ethan said to Aiden after they had balanced on the horse.

Ethan did something with his leg, and the horse began moving. Then Ethan said to Aiden once again,

"Now, this is how you'll cause the horse to stop moving".

You know, while riding a horse, there's a certain rope you'd have to hold that is tied around a part of the horse. Yes, with that rope, you can control the horse to stop, turn around, and so on.

..Ethan was holding that rope right now, without it, you can't ride a horse.

Dragging the rope backward a little, the horse neighed and stopped. Then Ethan uttered to Aiden,

"You see that? Or should I do it again?".

"Do it again, dad, repeat both of them". Aiden said to Ethan.

"Watch carefully, this is how you'd cause a horse to start moving". Ethan's voice resounded again.

As known, Ethan had ridden Aiden to school numerous times. Once Aiden balances on the horse, he doesn't care how his dad put it in motion...all he knew was that he should be ridden to his destination.

He wouldn't even bother to watch or something like that, so he doesn't know how to put a horse in motion though his dad has ridden him to school numerous times.

..He doesn't know anything about horse riding, but he was gonna learn though.

He watched what his dad did with his leg to cause the horse to start moving, and he grabbed it. The horse wasn't running, it was just jogging according to Ethan's control.

And Ethan's voice resounded again, "And this is how you'd put the horse to a halt, watch me".

Aiden watched what his father did, and he saw how Ethan dragged the rope a little causing the horse to stop immediately, and he grabbed it.

'As thought, learning how to ride a horse wouldn't be easy'. Aiden thought to himself.

"Did you see how I did those?". Ethan inquired of Aiden.

..Aiden didn't say anything, he only nodded his head in reply to his dad.
