We walked into the small office room that had paper's everywhere on the floor. There were book shelves on each side of the room and a huge window behind him that showed the sunset. He looked at me as we looked at his long white beard, It was about to get to his chest. He just looked like your typical old man with normal clothes on, the normal White T-shirt with a little red coat over it. He just had old dirty jeans on and acted like any normal person. There was a wooden desk he was standing in front of that also had papers and books all over it. The sun was starting to set as we saw the view from his window. He looked scary so my mom let me cling onto her dress behind her. I didn't like meeting new people because they scare me and remind me of the forest. The other night when mom and dad bought home some friends to see me, the memories came back that night in form of nightmares.
"Hahaha, look at this powerful old man sitting in his office doing nothing! You should take better care of yourself Brite's." Dad laughed uncontrollably. My dad was always the type to make joke's and make everybody laugh. He was also kind hearted but very serious whenever the time was right.
"Don't make such a fuss about how I live my normal life Azeil. Let me meet this son of yours."
"HAHAHAHA damn right your going to meet him, I expect high praise from you!" Me and Haru knew my son Zekiel was going to blow Brite's mind. My worry is that Zekiel is a little shy to some new people. He stood by his moms side that whole party and stuck to her. We thought he would of gotten over it because it is almost his 6th birthday. I just thought to get him familiar to my old friend so he can help him through school when he is older just in case he is still shy.
"Your to harsh on Brite's honey, you know he is getting very old, go on Zekiel say hi."
"HAHAHAHA even your wife still thinks so Azeil, come back tomorrow once your wife is on your side!" The old man Brite's then laughed and thought "He knows I destroyed him at this point and won this argument."
"Now Zekiel come here and give me a handshake just like your strong dad!." I tried giving a heart warming smile and positive feel to the room but nothing worked. He just stuck to his mom and clung to her dress, This wasn't that surprising coming from a 5 year old that was found in the middle of the woods. One thing to not overlook was the mana coming from his body. Of course it wasn't as strong as any student or let alone any C+ adventure. His Nexus was still horribly tainted, but his mana was just a different color than others. This has never happened before in my lifetime and did not happen in any other lifetime's from what the books say. so it was something I did not want to overlook. He also did not have a normal amount of mana coming from his body for a 5 year old. I could see why Azeil was so surprised when he saw the amount of mana on him when he was a baby. As of now he was just a normal 5 year old that was really good with his mana usage. It was surprising to hear that he was practicing by himself and can use his mana though, kids don't start learning to use there mana till there about 7-8 years old which is why I'm so interested in this kid that appeared in front of me today.
"Go say hi Zekiel, don't worry he knows me and dad very well. We would never let anything happen to you!" I tried encouraging Zekiel to go talk to Brite's but he would not budge. I think it's time we go home and call it a day.
"Why don't we come back another day Brite's? He is really tired and does not like meeting new people." This was about the time to give up, he wasn't going to budge if he did not want to.
The old man started to smile at me and that scared me even more than before. Me personally, clutched even harder to my mom hoping that she would protect me from this dangerous old man. That smile was terrifying, I wanted to leave as soon as possible.
