Chapter 19: Helpless
Happy Reading~
===========
"I don't know anymore… Whether we should let our son go or not, we know that the outside world is very dangerous."
"I'm afraid if something happens to him, and I hope what I'm afraid of won't happen."
My father, he didn't say anything for a moment.
According to him, what his wife said was true.
But well, he also knew that his eldest son would be taken away into the empire.
Of course, he would be well looked after by them.
It's just that, on the other side of him, he didn't want to let his eldest son go.
If he left, he didn't know what to do.
As a father, he certainly would not give his child to anyone.
However, he had no choice but to do that.
After he saw the talent of his eldest son, he knew this would happen.
No matter what, they had to willingly let go of their eldest son.
In the end, their eldest son, he would still leave this place.
Because, the talent he has, it's not something they can bear.
A talent like my brother's, it was far beyond their imagination.
Because of that, my father and mother, they had no other choice.
If they still dare to hide my brother's talent, he will just be an ordinary person.
Plus, he definitely wouldn't be able to increase his strength.
In a place like this, it was impossible for someone like Athen to advance.
In the end, the only way he could continue to progress was to travel to the outside world.
That way, he didn't have to worry about resources.
"Don't cry, I know you're sad, but we have no other choice. A person like Athen, he's not fit to be in a place like this. He has to go, whatever happens. You should know that, right?" said my father, unable to hold back his heavy sigh.
In his entire life, this was the second time he had seen his wife cry this hysterically.
The first, was when she separated from her parents.
And right now, she was crying because her eldest son had to leave.
Even so, my father, he was also as sad as my mother.
No matter what, my brother, he is still their son.
Hence, it was not strange that he would feel extremely angry.
'If only I were stronger... I wouldn't feel this low.' thought my father, feeling very frustrated.
For a moment, a memory where he was defeated by the messenger came back to his mind.
"This is an order from the Emperor, he has decided to appoint your son as the adopted son of a Duke. Be proud, you guys have no right to refuse this."
'Fuck...' for some reason, a feeling of helplessness suddenly hit his heart.
Supposedly, he had rejected their offer back then.
Only, he had no choice but to accept it.
However, he had been threatened by the emperor.
If he didn't give their son to the empire, this village would be destroyed.
Therefore, it was impossible for my father not to accept their offer.
"But darling, aren't you angry? Our child was snatched like that, I know you're angry too, right!"
"..." my father, he once again said nothing.
Seeing how angry his wife was, he couldn't reply to what she said.
For him, what she said was reality.
No matter what happens, my father, he is currently feeling very angry
If he had more strength, he wouldn't have to feel this weak.
Even so, he also knew that it was impossible for their eldest son to remain in this place.
