Happy Reading~
===========
After hearing persuasion from my mother, I finally decided to leave.
And again, the fact that my big brother was leaving the next day.
There's no way I'm going to just sit there, like a corpse.
Therefore, this time I have to meet him for our final battle.
The reason is obvious, it's because I know that my brother won't be back for decades.
Maybe, when he comes back both of our parents will have died.
After all, the lifespan of Warriors and Mages was only around 150 years.
Moreover, my father and mother, they are now almost 50 years old.
Well, even though they are still quite young in the eyes of other experts.
Whatever it is, sooner or later I will definitely become a fighter.
That way, I can go to the Blaine empire to meet my brother once again.
Therefore, I don't have time to continue being sad.
Life is hard, and I have lived it for the second time.
*step-* *step-* *step-*
When my mother and I were walking towards the first floor, suddenly I accidentally heard a conversation.
That conversation, it contained about how my father and brother were discussing something.
In essence, our father was talking about the future of his own eldest son.
'Eh? W-what did father say just now? Brother will be the adopted son of a noble with the rank of duke? Impossible!' suddenly, without realizing it, I started walking faster forward.
Hearing that my brother would be made the adopted son of a noble, I couldn't help but be surprised.
"No! How could my older brother be the son of a disgusting noble like them?! I can't accept it!"
For a moment, my father, my brother and my mother, they all started to have looks full of shock on their faces.
Especially my big brother, he was the one who least expected that his younger brother would hear their conversation.
In fact, he had predicted that his younger brother would not come down anytime soon.
However, it seems that this assumption is wrong.
Finally, he could only let out a long sigh.
Realizing that this topic cannot be denied, it is not intended to say anything.
Unfortunately, before he could say a word.
His father, he suddenly stood up from the chair.
"Noah! You can't take care of your brother's problems! This is his life, and moreover, since the Duke has decided to adopt your brother as his son, this is our blessing!"
"Therefore, you must not interfere in this matter, understand?!"
It's true, my father, he didn't give me any room to talk at all.
Even when he saw my face, it was filled with anger.
He remained indifferent, as if everything was no big deal to him.
In fact, I myself know that my father did not accept all of this.
After all, my brother is still his son.
People who have his flesh and blood, and inherited his handsome face.
If it wasn't because he was weak, he would never lower his head before others.
However, because his current opponent was not an ordinary person.
Plus, he was one of the strongest people in the empire.
Also, as a duke-ranked noble, he wielded almost all the authority possible.
In the end, if it weren't for this village giving birth to a superior seed.
He would never send the royal troops to come personally, only to bring an unknown boy with him.
Luckily, because of his talent, the duke eventually became very interested in him.
Until, he was willing to adopt Athen as his own child.
"I-I... But, those nobles are still not good people! Father himself knows that they are bastards who like to oppress their own people!"
Somehow, when my father heard what I said just now.
He suddenly frowned, not knowing why.
Maybe because he was surprised? Seeing that his son, who had always shown fear of him, decided to fight him.
However, that still didn't make him feel happy at all.
Moreover, when he heard that his son said that all nobles were criminals.
He really couldn't accept it, after all there were still good nobles out there.
And he, of course, knew this fact.
After all, he had lived for almost 50 years.
It was impossible for him not to know what the outside world was, which was filled with various unknown mysteries.
"Noah! Come and kneel before father, and take back the words you said before!" instantly, without me realizing it, my whole body, it started shaking with fear.
Even so, I still didn't back down.
Not intending to move forward, let alone kneel in front of my father.
'This kid... OK, I think I know what I have to do.' not long after, a pressure began to spread throughout the room they were in.
That pressure, definitely came from a Profound Knight stage expert.
Enough to prove how strong they were, just by releasing a little of the pressure they had.
Especially, in front of someone who hasn't experienced awakening like me.
