Capítulo 8: Chapter 08- New Identity (Part 2)
Chapter 08- New Identity (Part 2)
After laying down, he waited patiently for the woman to come back. For some reason, the moment she ordered him to lay down on the bed, his body instinctively started guiding him there, as if this was the most normal thing to do.
That meant that this body recognizes that woman as someone very close to it being his mother from what he saw.
'I hope I will not get busted because of this.' He sighed under his breath with a worried look.
If he gets busted, all that awaits him is trouble, huge trouble. They can even lock him up because of it then all of his plans will go to ruins before he even starts working on them.
A few minutes passed by in silence before he finally heard the sound of footsteps hurrying to his room. Then, 3 people barged inside in succession.
One of them was his mother, a man wearing a formal suit and holding some kind of bag in his hand, and the last one was a stern-looking tall man.
"Honey, are you alright? Does it hurt anywhere?" She asked him.
"No…"
"Doctor, please. My child, he says he can't remember me nor anything else."
The man adjusted his glasses and approached Rin before sitting down near him.
Then, for the next 20 minutes or so, he examined him thoroughly and checked all of his vitals. Rin could see the troubled look on the doctor's face when he found that everything looked fine.
"Sigh…" Finally, he stopped and looked at the woman.
"What is it, doctor?!"
The worry in her voice alone made Rin feel even worse than before. He really abused her kindness too much. Even if he didn't really know her, she was still his biological mother (in this world) which means he was tricking someone he shouldn't trick.
"There is nothing out of the ordinary about the young master, lady Selina. I checked everything but he's as healthy as ever. His basic knowledge and common sense are still intact weirdly enough. I fear the young master is suffering from complete memory loss." The man replied, his eyes looking apologetic.
"Is there no way to restore his memories, sir?" The man asked.
He had already held the woman's shoulders to support her body from falling.
"All we can do is to allow him to restore it naturally. These kinds of cases can't be healed by normal means or by magic. I recommend you both talk with him and try to trigger some kind of memory in his mind. It can be anything even if it was insignificant, it could help."
The man nodded his head and helped his wife get closer to Rin.
"Honey, you can't recognize my face?"
Rin shook his head.
"What can we do, Damian?" She shifted her gaze to the man.
His serious gaze was fixed on Rin as if he was trying to access something. But, Rin didn't want to make him suspect something so he spoke to the woman named Selina.
"Are you… my mother?"
"Yes, darling." She held his hand tightly and caressed his face.
"What's…my name?"
"Your name is Rin Silvereye and this is the Silvereye household."
"I…see…"
The man sighed and then spoke with a clearly distressed tone.
"My name is Damian and this is Selina. We're your father and mother."
"Mmm, nice to meet you?"
"Don't force yourself, Rin. Take your time and I'm sure you will soon remember us." Selina assured her son. She probably confused his awkward reply as a worried one.
"I think he should get out and take a stroll around. Maybe seeing the house would trigger his memories." Damian suggested.
"But…"
"Don't worry too much, Selina. Your son is going to be 16 years old this month. I'm sure he can take care of himself."
"Sigh, you are right. Honey, do you want to take a walk with me?"
"Yes."
'Now things are moving… I can also ask her general questions about the place while I'm at it.'
The three then left the room together. There, they found 2 women wearing maid clothes waiting for them.
They instantly bowed to them respectfully.
"You know what happened. I rely on you to take care of Rin from now." Damian said.
"Yes, my lord."
After that, Damian left Selina and Rin alone and walked away. He seemed to be really busy since he was most likely a noble.
Then, the two walked around the house and checked the kitchen, the rooms, and even the library. The house was gigantic, to say the least. It had countless, rooms, bathrooms, and kitchens for some reason. It was the most luxurious place Rin had seen in his entire life. Through that walk, he made sure to ask her about all kinds of things, and soon an image of the situation was generated in his mind.
His name was Rin Silvereye, he didn't know whether it was a coincidence that he had the same as his old self or if it was Lili's doing but he was happy he kept his name. His father, Damian Silvereye was a Nobel, precisely a duke which was a position directly under the king himself.
Rin was impressed that his background was this important but it also made him worry even more about the problems that could arise from being the son of a duke.
Ignoring the potential assassination attempts, enemies that could be lurking everywhere, and the struggle for power between the nobles, Rin still had the fear of him being a villain lingering in the back of his mind.
TOI had many villains in it, more than he could count so the chance he was one of them was huge.
Anyway, the house he was in now is located in the heart of the silvereye duchy. The duchy was located in the northern part of the Aiviresion Empire.
Obviously, he never heard of either of these places so he couldn't tell whether it was a good place or not.
One more thing he learned is that a few days from now, he will undergo his 'awakening'. Finally, Rin heard a word he knew the meaning of.
The awakening is a ritual that every young individual undergoes to awaken the mana inside of them.
'Very typical stuff. That's also the reason why I can't see the mana stat in my system. When I awaken, I can finally start using his powers.
The last thing he learned was coincidentally also the most important one out of all these. It seemed that he had an older sister who was attending some kind of academy and was coming back home today for vacation.
'The protagonist of the fourth world also attends some kind of academy if I'm not mistaken. I have a weird hunch about this.'
After their long walk, they finally ended up in the living room.
"So, did that help you remember anything?" Selina asked.
"Unfortunately… no…"
Selina's face turned sour but she immediately smiled again. She knew that she must not get disheartened this quickly and that it needs a lot of time and patience to help her son.
The atmosphere in the room turned slightly heavy. Rin had a hard time trying to find a way to ease up Selina's worries but he really couldn't find something to say in this situation.
Luckily, a maid came toward them.
"The young lady's carriage is almost here."
"Oh, great! My little girl is finally back home!" Selina's mood lightened and she stood up before grabbing Rin's hand and basically dragging him to the door.
"Your sister is finally home, Rin!"
The two stood at the door and waited for a few moments before a luxurious carriage like those from the medieval era stopped in front of the doorsteps.
The man who was sitting at the front landed on his feet and then opened the door. A silhouette appeared from inside the carriage soon after. A sweet and addictive smell of roses assaulted Rin's nose.
'Please don't be one of the heroines, please don't be one of the heroines, please don't be one of the heroines.' Rin closed his eyes and prayed to whoever god ruled this world.
The last thing he wanted was to be related to one of the heroines. Not only are they basically walking, talking, disasters but if he was truly a villain then he already has a clear idea of who his sister is.
In Divine Sapphire, there was only one girl who was the daughter of a duke but he really doesn't recall her name.
Fortunately, he still recalls the heroines' faces to some extent so he should recognize her instantly in case she was one of them.
'The moment of truth!'
