Just as I was about to go practice as well, I felt a gaze from beside me. I glanced at him, there was Xiao San staring at me silently.
Xiao San, who had been silently watching Tang Hao and I argue, opened his mouth and spoke.
"Brother Yang, are you really leaving?"
"Of course, I decided that long ago. I wasn't part of this family from the start."
"That's not true, I already think of you as my own brother."
"Xiao San, I also think of you as my own little brother. But this is not our last meeting. So what is there to be sad about?"
" Okay…"
"By the way, where are you going, brother Yang?"
"Perhaps Nouding City? I heard that nearby is a Spirit Beast Breeding Forest created by the Heaven Dou Empire. So I can absorb Spirit Rings."
"Really?! Isn't that the same place Nouding Academy is located?"
"Right, that's why I said we'd meet again."
"In that case, will brother Yang also enter Nouding Academy?"
Eh? Enter the academy? I? Never thought I would step into such a place.
Even in my previous life, I never entered the academy. I just study alone, without a teacher.
"Dunno? I'll think about it again when I'm there."
Xiao San nodded but there was a hint of hope in his eyes, after which he left.
Sorry for lying to you guys, actually my goal is the outer Star Dou Forest to train.
I lied that I went to the city to train, but I didn't lie about getting a Spirit Ring.
So don't blame me, I'm not completely lying.
The days change very quickly, it doesn't feel like a week has passed.
Today I'm going because the sword I requested was finished last night.
At this time, in the morning. In my room, I was packing the things I would bring.
And unexpectedly, Tang Hao appeared by opening the door. I watched him and asked.
"Where's Xiao San?"
"He's out front waiting for you."
"Okay… so? What do you want?"
Tang Hao walked over and put down the pair of swords complete with scabbards.
"That's the sword you requested, it's quite difficult to make a sword of that quality."
"Then I shall thank you and put it to good use."
I took one of the swords and drew it from its scabbard. This sword has perfect balance.
It weighs just right in the hand, the power is just right, and the sharpness is no question, it's very sharp.
"Then this…"
Tang Hao put down one more item. Hmm? What's that? Wasn't all I asked for a sword?
I looked at the item that was placed and was surprised, because it was a ring. I looked at Tang Hao with disdain.
Was Tang Hao really like that? Have I mistaken him as a gentleman?
"Brat, what do you think? It's a ring left by your parents. It contains money from your parents and other members of the caravan."
"So you looted our caravan?"
Subconsciously, I asked in an extremely cold voice and I subconsciously let out a killing intent.
"Calm down Brat, I collected money from your caravan group not to loot. But to give it back to you. I think it's your right."
"Well if you tell me…."
I take the ring, it is a spatial ring. Or a space ring, inside the ring there is a dimensional space that can be used to store items.
Putting it on the index finger, I look into love. There is money and some healing herbs.
"The money inside is about a million gold coins. That's enough to fill your life. Inside are also some healing herbs, they can come in handy when you're injured."
Tang Hao explained the contents of the space ring on the middle finger of my right hand. Then I put all my stuff in the ring.
"Wait, I'm actually a rich person? Then why did I live in poverty before!!! With this money I can live more comfortably!!!"
Tang Hao sighed and replied.
"I thought you'd be sad to see what your parents left behind, so it's better to give it to you when you're older. I previously gave it to you when you were 12 years old."
What? Tang Hao thought about my feelings? Am I dreaming? Or is this an illusion? That Tang Hao, who doesn't care about his own child?
I can't understand Tang Hao's train of thought, is he a tsundere? Ashamed to show feelings of affection and instead show a cold nature?
"It's a very rare ring, it looks like it's an ancient relic ring. The space inside the ring seems to have no limits."
When my mind roams for a long time. Tang Hao continued explaining but I ignored him.
It was only when Tang Hao's explanation finished that I lowered my head and thanked him heartily.
"Thank you at that time for helping me, thank you also for caring for and looking after me for the past six years."
"It's nothing, I'm thankful that one bully has disappeared."
"Now tell me the truth, where are you going? It's impossible to go to Nouding City, right? In that case, you can go with Xiao San and Old Jack."
Are you accusing me of lying now? Looks like I really can't lie to Tang Hao.
He had a lot of knowledge and knowledge, different from Xiao San who had only a few years to come to this world.
Excuses, I must make enough reasons to lie to Tang Hao. Tang Hao now suspects that I will go deep into a dangerous place.
If I said I wasn't lying, or said I was going to a nearby town, that would be even more suspicious.
Because of that, I had to tell a lie embellished with the truth.
I sighed, pretending to have been found out.
"Sigh…. Uncle Hao really can't be fooled. I'm going to Nouding City, but after that I'll be going again."
That was the truth, since I need supplies for the long haul, the Star Dou Great Forest is very, very far away.
Still looking at me with a suspicious gaze, Tang Hao asked again.
"Where exactly?"
"I want to go to the place where my parents died, I want to visit their graves."
I said sadly, there is not the slightest lie in these words.
Tang Hao was also speechless, because it was a reasonable excuse and Tang Hao had no reason to prevent me from leaving.
What kind of person would not allow a child to visit the graves of their parents?
"After that? Do you know the place? And also it's far in town."
"That's why I'll ask where did you bury my parents and the rest of the caravan? After that I'll head to the Capital of the Heaven Dou Empire."
At some point when I lived with Xiao San and Tang Hao. Tang Hao said the accident that happened to me, he buried everyone's corpses, then took me away.
Tang Hao sighed again then said the place where he made the tomb for my parents.
Tang Hao turned and walked through the door.
But I said, stopping Tang Hao in his tracks.
"Uncle Hao, if there ever came a time where you were placed in a place where you have to forget your grudges, what would you do?"
"If it's like that, then I won't forget my grudge until I can avenge myself."
I could feel obvious anger in Tang Hao's every word.
"But what if your revenge endangers the people you care about?"
Tang Hao stopped and froze. He was silent and had no reaction. But I could tell he was in deep thought.
" I don't know…." After saying that, he left.
I thought about myself and my reason for living.
"Should I forget my grudge against Tang Hao?"
