Chapter 6 - First journey in the new world (4)

The reason why he jolted was because he thought about his grandpa in his previous life. He former grandpa was already dead and he even went to his funeral. It was estimated that even his bones had already turned into fossil. However it's just a joke but he was very sure that his former grandpa was dead. At this moment, in his head, there were many various thoughts. His mother was right. He was an overthinking person.

In any case, he had no evidence now. He would reserve his doubts until he found some clues, before he would be able to investigate more. Only he knew what he was thinking now.

Afther thinking about that up to this point, he decided to put his thoughts aside temporarily because he wouldn't get any satisfying answers even if he kept thinking.

Afterwards, he looked at his father and asked him for an explanation of the last item. The last item is very ugly and unpleasant in his eyes.

" Dad, what is this ugly robe ? "

" Hmm, did you say that my robe is ugly ? This is my most precious belonging. " his father grimaced. He only liked to ridicule other people's views, but he didn't like to be ridiculed over his view of beauty. In his eyes, his robe was very magnificent and handsome.

" Dad, aren't you joking, right ? Which part of this robe make you think it's beautiful ? It's even worse than beggers' clothes.

Look carefully, dad ! The color is marrow-colored. It will be fine if the quality of this robe is acceptable. But this kind of quality is very raw and rough. It is a tattered robe too. If I wear the hood, I wouldn't be any different from a grim reaper. You say, which part of this robe is beautiful ? " Shiro grimaced at his father's words too.

" Don't talk unnecessary things ! Just do what I tell you to do ! This robe had been with me since my childhood. Moreover, your grandpa gave me this too. So if you want to blame someone, go to your grandpa " Magi didn't even turned around while talking to him this time.

" where would I find my long lost grandpa ? "

" I don't know, that's why, don't ask me. I also want to know the question like you. Perhaps he didn't remember the direction to return home or might be dead in some corner. Go find yourself when you go out of home ! Don't be like your mom and talk many things. Do what I tell you. That's enough. " his father seemed like he was not patient anymore with him. Moreover his father was not reasonable at all.

" Huh, I was just listening to you silently without causing any disturbance in your talk. Why do you have to pull me into your childish quarrel ? " his mother then look at his father deeply while waiting for his answer.

Shiro smelled some domestic violence. That's why he must chime in this time.

" Hey, hey, that's enough. At least, dad, can you explain to me why you gave this robe to me ? "

" Oh, I was about to forget to tell you. Well, the reason is that this robe is our home's ultimate and sole heritage. So, whenever you want to try to gain something important, you must wear this robe. At least, it will give you a feeling of living with your family. Moreover it can even conceal you. If you wear the hood, nobody will see your face. Do you understand ? "

" Yes, dad, I see " he could only nod because he couldn't find the words to retort his father. He didn't even know if he should cry or laugh at his father's seem-make-sense but not-useful-at-all explanation about the use of the robe.

Just like that, his father's gift giving section ended.

" I am going to leave tomorrow " he suddenly said without any hint.

" why are you hurried so much ? " his sister put in.

" I don't know too. I just want to leave tomorrow. No other reason for that. " Shiro explained.

" okay, if so, go to have an adventure to your heart's content, but don't forget to come back to home whenever you are free. Next thing, if you would have a girlfriend accidentally in the future, come back home to introduce her to us. " Shin magi warned and turned around to look at his daughter, poor shin inoa. He has been a long time ago very unsatisfied with his useless daughter !

" Yes, your father is right ! Oh no, that's not still right. If you doesn't have any girl by your side, don't come back home ! " his mother exaggerated this girlfriend problem even more !

" Oi, mom, why did I suddenly have a feeling that your son, I am not important for you anymore ? " this time, even a iceberg face of Shiro couldn't help but have a gloomy look.

" Let's not talk about that matters, mom. I want to ask you something. Didn't you want to become sages in your younger days too ? "

" Hmm, honestly speaking, yes, I and your father wanted to become a sage but we didn't choose to stay on the path of cultivation. I don't want to talk about that topic. Let's stop. " Suna sighed and stoped talking.

" okay, dad " Shiro nodded.

" Mom, dad, let's not talk about those things. We have to say some farewell words to my little brother. " Inoa chimes in but Shiro noticed that there was another thing only he didn't know yet. He didn't understand why they had many things that are hidden from him. In any case, he stopped his thoughts here. If the suitable time came, they would definitely tell him. After all, they are family.

Then, they talked about some miscellaneous and farewell words. After that, they had a dinner together and finally went back to their own rooms to sleep.

However, Shiro had a strange dream in night ~
