Chapitre 9: Chapter 8 17 years old
5 years has passed since Licht had received the sword.
" Whoo!"
Licht swung down his sword and paused a little bit. He grabbed his bottle from the ground and sipped water. It was refreshing and cool because it had mint flavor mixed in with lemon.
Licht put down his sword and looked to the sky. One could see he was thinking about something. His amber eyes looked like it was burning due to sunlight. His platinum hair was blown away by the gentle breeze from the forest.
He had grown considerably tall during last 5 years. His height was staggering 190 cm and his muscles were toned and beautiful. They weren't bulky, but powerful.
" Brother, are you ready to go? Dad will be angry if he knows about your decision?"
2 young teenagers came out from the woods. They were his younger brothers. Edward was tall and muscular unlike his brothers. He didn't look like 15 years old youngster. He was like a soldier who battled through the war with a giant scar on his left cheek.
As for Richard, he was still looking at his book. He was neither tall nor muscular. In fact, he was a pale looking handsome teenager with blond hair. He was wearing simple clothes yet he looked like a noble.
Licht looked at his younger brothers with a serious gaze. He wasn't sure they were scheming something naughty behind his back.
" Don't tell dad and mom about my departure. They will skin me alive if they found out about my plan."
Edward hit his chest with confidence. He grinned.
" Don't worry brother. I got this."
Licht knew Edward wasn't lier. Honestly, he would screw his plan up because he couldn't lie.
So, he placed his bet on his brother Richard who was a mastermind. Richard also guessed his intentions as he smiled deeply with a dark look.
" Brother, you know there is a new novel called ' Peace with mind', right?"
Licht felt painful when he heard this. He touched his pocket and felt a few coins in it. He was saving them for his travel, but the reality wasn't that kind enough. He reluctantly touched his pocket and took out a gold coin which he saved for many years.
Shake*
His hands were trembling as he handed it to Richard. Of course, Richard received it with a grin. He carefully inspected the coin and weighed it on his palm.
Licht's forehead bulged with veins. He took a deep breath to calm down.
" Don't forget your promise."
Richard motioned him to go. He didn't try bother him because he understood his sentiment. It was basically useless to persuade his brother.
As for Edward, he took something out from his enormous bag. He threw it to Licht and turned around.
" Take care, brother. Don't forget about our promise."
Licht smiled after getting his backpack. He knew Edward was a soft guy unlike his appearance. He reached his pocket and took out his leather gloves which looked really cool.
" Brat, don't forget to exercise daily."
Edward waved his hand and walked away with Richard. However, his face wasn't that good. He was eager to go with his brother, but he wasn't qualified yet. He wasn't ready.
Richard patted his shoulder.
" Don't worry, brother. We will definitely catch up to him. Besides, he needs us."
Edward nodded and clenched his fists. He smiled.
" You are right. We have to stay beside him."
Crush*
A figure came out from the woods. It was Edmond who was holding his axe. He saw his two sons' faces and figured out overall situation.
He sighed and put down his face. His mood wasn't that good because he forbade his son going to the capital before.
" So, he ran away finally. That brat really made me angry."
Richard hung his head down. He apologized with a gentle voice.
" I am sorry, dad. You have to understand us."
Edmond didn't say anything. He just caressed their heads and pulled them away.
" You, Brats have grown well. Oh well, man has to see the world. I understand him. I was a rebel like him at his age. Your grandpa beat me to death when I got drunk first. Haha, good times."
Richard and Edward silently listened to his story, but they could tell he was sad. Perhaps, he treasured his children more than he thought. His voice was quivering slightly as he tried to smile.
