From the Kaspara family mansion a large man was reading a book about earth magic. Soon he was staring into the glass, for some reason he smiled suspiciously.
"Well well it's seem we have a guest"
~~~~~
At the combat magic training ground I was trying to calm Yanz who was panicking because of what I said. Yanz had started to calm down so I could chat with her now.
"Why are you panicking like that? That description really doesn't fit your stature you know"
"Sorry, I was just afraid of making someone who just came here uncomfortable."
"Why is that?"
"Because if my father finds out that I did that he will punish me by making me learn magic other than combat magic"
I just fell silent hearing the answer from Yanz, it's really good when you can learn magic as you like, while I can only learn from my imagination and make my own magic.
But wait a minute, Combat Magic? I feel something strange. In the middle of my confusion a loud shouting voice came from the top of this combat training ground.
"HAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
I, who was confused, asked Yanz
"Who is it? Are we being attacked?"
"No, it's worse than an attack."
The sound got louder and I realized it wasn't screaming it was a man's joyful laughter. The man got closer and...
*BAAAAAAMMMMMM*
The man landed heavily causing a violent shock in the combat training ground. Dust smoke was everywhere the silhouette of the man was huge, as an act of self-protection I took out my dagger and prepared for an attack.
But instead of an attack he launched a greeting.
"HAHAHAHAHA It's been a long time since someone other than Rara came here, I was excited to find out who it was. It turned out to be the son of Bara."
The man swung his cloak vigorously, creating a wind so strong that the dust blocking our view disappeared.
There was a large man with a distinctive beard and moustache, someone who never lost his spirit even once. The shield of the Kaspara family was Ceps Kaspara.
"Excuse me, but who are you?"
Ceps fell silent at my words and Yanz gaped in surprise at what I had just said. I can't seem easliy to recognize anyone other than my sister and father in this place, after all I'm just an idiot who never even appeared in a novel.
"A-Agra Y-You're seriously asking like that?"
Ceps was silent as if he was holding back his anger, I hoped that my words didn't upset him and make him want to beat me up. Amidst the tension, he suddenly laughed
"HAHAHAHA, it's true that you've been living in hiding all this time"
I only chuckled because Ceps laughed so loudly, and he introduced himself.
"Allright then, my name is Ceps Kaspara I am your uncle and this is my son Yanz kaspara"
After introducing myself to Uncle Ceps, I asked him.
"Uncle why did you come through the top, isn't the teleportation over there?"
"HAHAHAHAHA keep this a secret but I've never used that thing."
"Then how did uncle come to practice?"
Uncle pointed towards the mansion
"I jump from here to there"
JUMPING? From the mansion to here? It even takes an hour to travel by horse from the mansion to this place and he just jumps? What a monster and he is in front of me.
"Well that's all i just want to see who is the person who come to Combat Practice. But..."
I don't know why but i have a bad feeling about hia nwxt words
"Before I go back to the mantion I want you to practice with Yanz"
"B-b-b-but dad..."
And that's the bad feeling
"If you manage to knock Yanz down even once I'll train you for the next week."
That's a really interesting offer, being trained for a week by a Mage who has an advantage in close combat. But I have to take down the monster in front of me.
After thinking for a moment I agreed to the offer. Although I have to fight him, but I don't need to defeat him I just need to take him down.
"Good, let's start"
Yanz and I are already preparing to do sparring here, different from matches in the arena that have the aim of defeating or even killing their opponents. The sparring will be stopped by the Referee if it is deemed sufficient.
I looked at Yanz, it seemed from the look on his face that he didn't want to do this. The match started I immediately threw my dagger that I had duplicated into three pieces, Yanz did not dodge the dagger and just stood still so he was cut on one of his hands.
He fell to his knees due to the wound he received, I thought that the match was over and I won the bet with uncle Ceps. But uncle Ceps shouted to Yanz
"Yanz I know you're just pretending, stop it and fight seriously or you'll get punished!"
Yanz stood back up, I wasn't surprised because I knew that such an attack wouldn't have much effect on the son with the strongest physique in the Kaspara family.
I looked at him carefully, but when I blinked Yanz was already near me he attacked me with his kick but I managed to dodge the attack by doing a backward blitz.
Because we were not too far away I could hear Yanz's words, he said quietly
"Sorry Agra I really don't want to hurt you, but I also don't want father to punish me by practicing another magic"
"You don't need to hold back Yanz, instead it looks like you need to increase your focus."
As soon as yanz launched his attack I threw my three daggers unnoticed by him, now I recalled my three daggers but yanz managed to avoid the fatal attack, he was still get injured by the unexpected attack.
Uncle Ceps who saw the incident didn't seem to have any reaction. On the contrary, Yanz's spirit seemed to be burning from my attack. He smiled and said
"Alright, let's get serious"
Yanz took out his mana and prepared to attack, he moved faster than before. I couldn't dodge his attack with Blitz this time because I had used it earlier, when I thought that I would be hospitalized because of Yanz's crushing attack suddenly
*DAAAAKKKKK*
Yanz was thrown from there to hit the cliff wall there, a man was already in front of me, it was Ceps kaspara he protected me from his son's attack.
"Stop it already! Your attack could have killed him you know"
Yanz woke up and removed the rubble from the cliff. Yanz moved again very quickly this time he was already kneeling in front of uncle Ceps.
"I'm sorry father, I overreacted and almost hurt my brother in this sparring match."
Hearing the word brother touched me a little, because this was the first time someone other than Rara considered me as a family member, because all the family members I met considered me as trash.
"Yanz did you forget what I said? You should apologize to the person you hit not the person who hit you"
"Ah!"
Yanz moved towards me, he apologized to me solemnly. Of course I forgave him, he didn't even have to apologize at all. After we shook hands Uncle Ceps said
"Well, Yanz, since you made a mistake, I'll give you a punishment."
"What punishment dad?"
"The punishment is to double your training weight for a week."
Just hearing it made me want to faint, doubling the weight means Yanz has to train with four tons of stone!!. I faced Yanz, I could see he was trembling.
"Yanz, are you oka....."
"HUAAAAAAA, thank you father, I will gladly do it"
"Good that's my son"
What an interesting father and son, before leaving uncle Ceps said to me.
"You get ready tomorrow we will start the training"
"Y-yes Uncle"
"I'll go first"
Uncle Ceps bent down and jumped with all his might, I was surprised that his words that he jumped from the mansion here were not just nonsense.
Recalling the training given by Rara makes me a little traumatized, if Rara who has such a pretty face trained me like hell how about a fiery person like uncle Ceps.
Well I don't need to think about that, I decided to go back to my room shortly after that. Because I felt so overwhelmed after being squeezed by Yanz and having to fight him after the sparring.

At the mansion Rose prepared a bath and fruits for Agra, because the fruits in my room ran out Rose decided to go around to get fruits from the warehouse.
The Kaspara family warehouse uses Time magic technology that keeps the foodstuffs there fresh even if stored for weeks. While picking up the fruits she met a servant from another son.
"Look at her, she got the job of taking care of the family's trash"
"What a disgrace"
Rose got those insults all the time, but she never took their words seriously, for Rose serving the son of the person she respected the most was An honor
