It had been 1 year since Link had reincarnated into this world and began his new life and in this short amount of time he had managed to get a grasp on the language of this world.
He didn't know if it was due to the fact that he was young or something else but the fact that he managed to learn a brand new language in only a year astounded him.
However the most important thing that he had learned in this world apart from his name which was Rion Lincoln Ashcroft son of Nialan and Atrica Ashcroft was that he was apart of a long lived race that was known as the Eruni.
Despite the similarities that they had to elves due to them having long pointed ears, a long lifespan and an etheral beauty they actually had more in common with Human's.
Another difference that they had was the markings on their bodies that closely resembled the one's found in aboriginal tribes back on Earth which were located on various part's of their bodies.
His father Nialan was a small noble as well as the head guard of the village they lived in while his mother Atrica was a renowned healer but that was mainly due to the fact that she was the only healer in their village.
He had also found out the names of his three older siblings Kanro was his oldest brother and was 7 years old he had the same emerald green eye's as his mother but had their father's pitch-black hair.
Lanat was his second elder brother who was 5 years old he looked more like their father than their mother as he had their father's cerulean blue eye's as well as his pitch-black hair.
Then there was his sister Valenia who was 4 years and 2 months old she looked like a smaller version of their mother with the same silky golden hair and bright emerald green eyes.
Rion however had a mixture of his parent's attributes his eyes were a unique colour with the inner part of his eye being the same emerald green that his mother had while the outer part was cerulean blue, and his hair was a greyish white colour that was only a little lighter than his father's pitch-black hair.
Throughout these few month's the language wasn't the only thing he managed to pick up he had also learned to crawl much to the dismay of the maids that attended to him.
Due to his mental age, he was easily able to escape from his crib and explore what he assumed was a small mansion because of his parent's high positions in the village and today was no different.
Due of the unique position's that his parent's held within their village Rion's family was better off than most of the others in the village.
As Rion crawled to the corner of a hallway he heard the voices of some maids "Haaah~ Young master Rion has escaped once again how can a baby that's only 9 months old be so much trouble" one of the maids said with exasperation.
Rion quickly crawled down one of the corridors in his family home 'catch me if you can' Rion thought to himself as he made his way inside the open door of the family library before shutting it with all the might his tiny body could muster.
Not long after he shut the library door did he hear the footsteps of the maids in the hallway.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
The footsteps of the maids got closer to the door until they were eventually standing outside "We need to find young master Rion before the madam finds out" one of the maids said anxiously as they continued passed the library.
Rion breathed a sigh of relief but he was quickly interrupted by a voice he recognised "Hiding from the maids again you little rascal" Rion turned in the direction of the voice to see his father Nialan and eldest brother Kanro looking at him with amusement.
Rion scowled knowing he was caught 'damn this old man of mine' he thought to himself before he quickly began acting his physical age.
His father came over to where he sat in front of the door and picked him up "Come on you little troublemaker let's get you back to the maid's before your mother skins them alive" his father said as his brother Kanro chuckled at their father's comment.
Rion didn't bother to try and struggle knowing he wouldn't be able to escape his father's grasp no matter how much he tried.
Before exiting Nailan turned to where Kanro was still seated "Kanro stay here I'll return after I've gotten this little troublemaker back to were he should be and we can continue where we left off" Nialan said as he scooped up Rion off the ground.
Kanro nodded his "Yes father" was all he said before returning his attention to a book that lay in front of him on the desk.
Rion gave up knowing he couldn't get away 'man I hate being a baby' Rion thought as he and his father exited the library.
============================
8 months later
Rion was now 1 year and 8 months old and he had since gained the ability to walk and even speak fluently even though the children of this world developed quicker than those on Earth he was considered to be advanced for his age.
Rion ran through the halls trying to keep up with Lanat and Valenia "Slow down wait for me" Rion said as he ran through the halls after his older siblings.
Rion looked down at his small leg's as he ran 'Curse these short stubby legs I might be able to walk but I didn't think it would take so much effort just to run' Rion thought to himself as his brother and sister stopped upon hearing his pleas.
Valenia and Lanat looked back before they stopped and waited for Rion as Valenia held out her hand "Come on Rion, Kanro is about to start his training with father and Lanat is already late as it is" Valenia said as she waited for him while Lanat was stood slightly ahead of them.
Lanat nodded his head while saying "Yeah and mother even said it was okay for you two to watch today" Lanat said excitedly.
Rion was also excited at seeing thing's that he would've only read in a novel back on earth with his own eye's for the first time.
Rion arrived in front of his brother and sister as he gripped Valenia's hand "thank you" Rion said as they began walking down the hall instead of running like before.
A few minutes later, Rion, Valenia, and Lanat arrived at the side of the house where they could see their father Nialan and older brother Kanro in the middle of sword training while their mother Atrica was sitting to the side watching with a smile on her face.
When they arrived their mother quickly spotted them and ushered the three over "Come here my baby boy" their mother said when Rion was in front of her as scooped him into her arms before she placed him on her lap.
Valenia joined her younger brother and sat next to their mother as Lanat picked up a wooden sword and joined their father and older brother for training.
Rion looked on in awe as he sat on his mother's lap "father's so cool" Rion said with a twinkle in his eye as his father demonstrated a sword technique for Lanat and Kanro to copy even though it was a sword technique his father made it look like an elegant dance.
Even though Rion was mentally older than his siblings seeing something he had only seen in anime and read in manga or novel's in his past life made him act like the child he was suppose to be.
When his father heard this he turned and looked at Rion before walking over to where Rion, Valenia, and their mother Atrica watched "Don't worry kiddo when you awaken your first core you'll be able to start training too" Nialan said as he ruffled Rion's hair.
After this little exchange Nialan rejoined Lanat and Kanro to continue their training Rion looked on with great interest as his mother and sister chatted 'I can't wait until I can start training' he thought to himself as he watched the training.
