C4 : Unknown state (2)
Yes, even though we were approving them to rear an abandoned child. We never once see him as our blood related, and adorable grandson. By no means were we, accepting him as a part of our Saber’s family.
Contempt is always being hidden in our eyes.
It is true that he is a genius, at the age of 3 he could already talk fluently. He is a smart child, and whenever he look at us, he never let loose his curious eyes. Until he reaches the age of 5… his eyes… become more adult, and intelligent than our eldest child.
A 5 years old kid that outstandingly smart and perspicacious (sharp witted). With that eyes of his, that already understood about the truth of his origin, but ignore it and keep acting as if he is my daughter child…
How abominable!

“What?! Are you joking?! Don’t talk nonsense!”
“I… I didn’t Duke, I won’t dare to…”
“Then? Do you even realize that word of yours? It’s a damn 7 years old kid! He’s able kill several assassin from the Black hood organization?! Not even you could do it! Even if you battle again one of them 1 on 1! Even the weakest of them is stronger than you!”
“…”
That’s preposterous! What kind of entity is the Black Hood is? It’s the famed assassin from the Xierz Empire! It’s a sure kill royal assassin, that once they done their mission their success rate is 90%! It’s by no means an organization that could be looked at one eyed closed!
That child… no that grandson of mine… is not a genius… he is a monster that could even kill a ghost from the Black hood… how intriguing…
“Dismiss”
“I shall take my leave!”
Hmm, what should I do now?

“Lucie! Let’s visit our Grandson! He’s in a coma right now!”
“Ah! Is that true! Then let’s go! What did you wait! Let’s go fast!”
Unlike me, Lucie my wife already being in love with that child when the child call her Grandma in his 2 year of age… even though I myself need 4 years to marry her… He just need 4 time of meeting with her to get her fall in love to him. How abominable!
At the age of 3, I am being caught up surprised by Lynn…
“Grandpa… am I not father and mother’s son?”
How… did he know?
“You are their son you know…”
Then he look at me, with an eye filled with sadness.
“Am I your Grandson?”
“You are… my 1st Grandson”
Those eyes that look more sadder, the more I answered the more sad he is.
“Thank you Grandpa… Then… Let me change my question…”
“…”
“Am I someone from the Zhield’s Lineage?”
That question… it’s not something 3 years old could think of… what should I say? I am confused… there’s a pain in my heart…
“It’s okay Grandpa…”
“HA… what’s wrong with you Lynn? Did you sick or something?”
“a…. no I’m fine… I just want to solve the puzzle. That’s all…”
“What puzzle?...”
“The puzzle of why did father and mothers friend always asking about is my mother already healed, and my mother answer of ‘it’s not. he is my son.’ And mother’s father eyes…”
That damn weasel!
“… it’s alright Grandpa, I’m not a child anymore…”
You are still a child! Damn it!
“ha… Lynn, you are still a 3 year old brat… cry, when you want to cry. Laugh when you want to laugh, and… just play as you wish to…”

“no, grandpa. Why should I cry… I think I am blessed… that I’m being picked by mother and father…. To be able, to be their child… to be your grandson… I am blessed…”
With that… I hug him, and pat his head. But, even then… I didn’t hear nor see his crying face… instead of that… what I see is his happy face. There’s no longer sadness in it…
“Grandpa… can I ask you for a something?....”
“Just tell me”
“Teach me swordsmanship…”
“The training will be hard you know…”
“I will overcome it.”
Not even once at that time, that I thought he will be able to kill several assassin after only 4 year of training. But, in accordance to that… the price he must to pay, is… he stay in a state of coma for more than 2 weeks by now…
I could only sit beside my child and his wife, seeing the pale face of Lynn… that getting thinner day by day…
Ah… never could I think that just for training 4 year… he’s able to kill Black hood Organization’s assassin just with 2 short swords… how amazing will he become in his adulthood…
No… even if he’s not be able to be something big… for at least he need to be alive more than I could… even if he became a crippled… just by he being alive is enough for me…
Ah… Lynn, my dear Grandson… please… wake up… play with this Grandpa of yours… You should not come with your Grandma and uncles, you should just stay here with me for now…
“.he’s twitching! Rey! He’s twitching!”
“HAHA! My son! He’s awake!”
At last! Dear god! I really thank you for your grace! Thank you!
“Ugh… Grandpa? Father? Mother? Why were you all here?”

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
