I put my palm on my face as I watched Arthur shake hands with the Director of the Xyrus Academy. I did not hide because she already knew about me and my illness. Father called her when he first found out about my illness. Even she failed to see through my illness.
Even I as a person from an otherworld know what not to do in the presence of someone of high standing in society.
'Could it be that Arthur is the protagonist of this world.'
I seem to have heard from Lily that Arthur awakened at the age of 3, which is protagonist Halo.
We had arrived at the backyard. Director Cynthia wanted to test Arthur's qualifications to attend the Xyrus Academy.
Arthur and Director Cynthia fought but Arthur only used his earth and wind element. He was still defeated but I was now sure that he was looking more like a protagonist. He was able to control four elements and was also a deviant.
Arthur was a Quadra elemental and in this continent, there were not even any tri elementals.
I looked at my parent's surprised expressions, I also saw a mixture of expressions on my sister's face. Well, who could blame her she was still a little girl.
'I wonder how strong I am compared to him.'
Thought Rudolf but then he recalled that he had only awakened at the age of 9. He was just an apprentice mage currently.
'But why does everyone keep on saying they have an orange or a yellow core? What is it?'
Rudolf thought it must be a system used by these people to categorize each mage's rank according to the purity of the core. But mine seems to work on a completely different pattern.
His mage rank starts by first becoming an Apprentice Mage. Then with 1st rank is the starting point to the 9th rank which is the known peak. The system said that there was a God Rank Mage above the 9th Rank but let's set a small goal of reaching the 9th Rank by the age of 30.
I do not know if I would need to create a core in my dantian when I impact for my breakthrough to 1st Rank Mage.
"No! Absolutely no way! Arthur! Do you know how dangerous it is to become an Adventurer? You've just gotten back after we all thought you were dead and now you're saying you want to go get yourself killed out there? No way! Not."
Rudolf stopped his future imagination and decided to focus on the present. When he was suddenly forced to break out of his fantasy when Mrs. Alice shouted at Arthur.
'What, what happened? When did the fight finish and why is Mrs. Alice suddenly shouting at her son?!!'
I looked around confused because of the sudden commotion. Lily told me that it was because Arthur wanted to be an adventurer.
'Oh, is the protagonist going to become an adventurer and then assemble a hero party to defeat the demon king.'
I was excited. He could become immortal in silence then silently after reaching the peak he would make his family also immortal.
The hero will take care of all the other problems. I just need to be strong enough to protect my family, but I do not even know who is the strongest in our Kingdom. I know that Director Cynthia is strong but usually, the real strong people are hidden behind these seemingly strong figures.
The next day was a Sunday, "So did you guys settle on what to do about Arthur?" My father asked, half chewing on his omelet.
My mother shook her head; "I swear. Sometimes, I have such a hard time believing you're a noble with your horrible dining habits, dear."
Alice and Reynold responded to my father's question.
"Mmm... I see." Both my father and mother nodded at this.
With that, breakfast ended and we all separated.
I went back to my room but I saw Arthur going towards my father's office. I ignored him. Mother and Alice went shopping, and Lily And Eleanor also went with them.
ARTHUR LEYWIN'S POV:
"I had been meaning to start teaching my baby sister in mana manipulation soon. It wouldn't be too much trouble to include Lilia and Rudolf in these lessons. I noticed that both you and Lady Tabitha are not mages so it might be impossible for Lilia and Rudolf to awaken by themselves, but if we start now, I think they would be able to awaken around the average age," I said.
My statement was met with silence. I looked up to see Vincent drop the stack of papers had been fumbling with nervously. His face was frozen in place and I could hear his heart beating faster.
"C-can I truly believe what you just said? Can you allow my daughter and son to become a m-mage?" He asked after a seemingly long moment of silence.
"Sure. It'll be a long process but it's possible. Er... I will have to ask you to keep the lessons on a low profile though. I would hate to be bombarded with doting parents asking to make their children into mages," I just chuckled, trying to lighten up the tension.
He nodded furiously after failing to form a coherent sentence.
"Sincerely... there would be no greater happiness than seeing my son and daughter become a mage," he managed to stammer out, tears on the verge of falling.
"Great! Then I'll leave the items we discussed to you! Now, allow me to excuse myself. Sorry for intruding on your work."
I walked myself out of the room, picking up the sleeping Sylvie from my lap.
I'm glad that worked out well.
