Between The Strongest and The Weakest Family
Chapter 4: Let's Visit Phantom Harlow Town

The next day...

Early in the morning at the Itzbal family mansion, Reinherz was still sound asleep, the sound of people walking towards Reinherz's room, before long there was the sound of the door breaking down.

'brak.' The sound of the door breaking down violently.

The sleeping Reinherz instantly woke up startled, and appeared Baron Raven who was wearing ordinary clothes for training

"Bagun my son!, it's time we go to the city" Baron Raven shouted excitedly

Reinherz was still sleepy answering very lazily "eemmm, dad isn't this too early in the morning?"

"Not my son, in the morning we have to exercise"

Baron Raven then picked up Reinherz who was still sleepy in bed, and immediately brought her out of the room, upon exiting, Reinherz saw some Maid was ready.

Then Baron Raven ordered Maid who was ready to stand by "The waiter prepares clothes to come out, I will bathe my son".

"Okay sir" Maid answered simultaneously.

A few moments later..

Baron Raven wore regular clothes for training in a brown shirt and worn blue pants, and Reinherz wore the same regular clothes as Baron Raven, too, but Reinherz was carrying a bag of clothes and some supplies, and Reinherz complained to his father, because he had to carry luggage while his father did not.

"Dad if I should bring this"

"Yes, since you don't have a change of clothes in town later, because in the administrative mansion I already have nice clothes while you don't, and this is also part of training your body son" Baron Raven while stroking Reinherz's head

"Keep we go with what vehicle?"

Reinherz did not see the horse ride as long as he stood in front of the mansion with his father.

Baron Raven smiled hearing his son ask, and answered Reinherz's question enthusiastically "Of course we'll walk son"

"AH!!!!" Reinherz who heard his father's reply became startled.

"Just relax the distance from the mansion to Phantom Harlow city is not too far away, this is your first physical exercise, so prepare your physique, AHAHAHAHAHA".

"[fucking father, how could he treat this little boy by walking far enough?, who also carried a bag of luggage]" Reinherz complained inwardly.

"Look, don't complain too much, later when we walk you will definitely find something interesting when we walk" Baron Raven looked at the pouting face of his son.

"Alright then dad"

Finally they walked together to the city of Phantom Harlow, on the way Reinherz saw his father was very close to his citizens, while on the road Reinherz saw a beautiful view outside the city of Phantom Harlow, a small clear river, which is very clear, the vast fields of fields, and the green grass and the beautiful trees and good fruit, Reinherz realized why his father had taken him on foot to the city instead of riding in a vehicle, one to enjoy this beautiful and peaceful scene, and Reinherz saw the various races visiting his father's city, Elves, Dwarves, Human Beasts, they came to Phantom Harlow there to be dangling, he said, or for a temporary stay, during the trip the residents of the city of Phantom Harlow have great respect for Baron Raven, this scene that he could not see during just staying at the family Mansion Itzbal, Reinherz who saw it, he said, made him even more curious about his father who seemed to only like to practice and look for trouble in the mansion.

A few hours later Reinherz and Baron Raven arrived in front of the city. The guard soldiers dressed in silver light armor were guarding the entrance of Phantom Harlow city, those who saw a stranger, looked down and greeted him.

"Honor Sir Baron Raven" the soldiers said.

Baron Raven who saw the sight replied directly to his soldiers "You have done well, please keep an eye on the people who come, so that the city is safer and more peaceful"

The soldiers who heard it directly from the superiors they admired, then smiled and replied in unison "Ready Sir".

Then Baron Raven took Reinherz into the city, at a time when in the city of Reinherz saw many people doing activities, ranging from trading, street singers, adventurers looking for a place to rest, and so on, this scene Reinherz would never see while in the mansion.

"Let's have us go to the administrative building of this city" Baron Raven while embracing Reinherz so as not to be far from his father.

Not many people greeted Baron Raven as long as the two of them walked into the administration building, they only slightly lowered their heads and smiled to show respect to their ruler, they knew that Baron Raven did not like being too openly respected in front of the crowd.

Before long Baron Raven and Reinherz arrived at the administration building, Reinherz had only first seen a very large building, this used to be a place for the ruler to live, but Baron Raven did not want to occupy it, and this building is used as an administration building and as a bed for employees, guests, and Baron Raven sometimes sleep here if working overtime.

"We're at the administration building, son"

"uwwaaahhh, it's so big dad, it's so much bigger than our house" Reinherz's eyes showed that he was very excited to enter the building.

"Welcome Sir Raven" said Arnor in a soft tone.

"Arnor!, I rarely see you coming to greet me, usually you in the barracks are training new recruits" said Baron Raven while patting Arnor on the shoulder

"ahh, I don't know why I'm so eager to welcome you this time"

Then Arnor looked back at Baron Raven there was a little boy carrying the same bag of clothes as Baron Raven and it seemed like he was a soybean.

Arnor asked Baron Raven "Sir, who's the kid behind you?"

"oohh this is my son Reinherz, you've never met him here, it's natural you don't recognize him" Baron Raven looked back.

Arnor, who was surprised to learn that Baron Raven's son was surprised, "I'm sorry for my disrespect, Mr. Reinherz" said Arnor while bowing a little

"Greetings to the captain, sorry this visit is so sudden, ahahaha" Reinherz chuckled.

It was natural for the soldiers or locals in the Phantom town of Harlow not to recognize Baron Raven's young son, as they were isolated while in the Itzbal family mansion, because the Itzbal family did not want to spoil his son with service because of the son of a ruler, the citizens of Phantom Harlow only knew that Baron Raven and Lady Lizbeth had given birth and would not see them for several years.

Baron Raven then embraces Arnor a bit away to speak privately, Reinherz who sees the incident makes himself wonder, Baron Raven and Arnor whisper.

"Arnor please watch and take your child's walk, I have an important meeting today in an ordinary place" Baron Raven whispered to Arnor

"is there any big problem sir?"

"this matter is still a secret"

Arnor knew as usual that whenever danger was coming, Baron would have a secret meeting with the Night Hawks, and there was a possibility that he would be informed of the danger to come or perhaps not, so Arnor has to prepare himself.

Curious Reinherz sees his father and Arnor whispering and approaches the two, Reinherz pulling his father's shirt.

"dad is there something?" tell me Reinherz is curious

Baron Raven who saw his son was confused and then looked down to be in line with his son.

"there's no Rein, it's just that I'm not going to accompany you to walk in the administration building or walk around the city because I have business, and in return Captain Arnor will accompany you for a walk" Baron Raven stroking Reinherz's head.

"yeahhh, will you be long?" tell Reinherz with a disappointed face.

Baron Raven who saw his son pouting then gave a light smile "it won't take long son, it's still noon, father will be finished around afternoon, he said, during the day you are free to walk or sleep in the administration building".

"All right Dad"

Baron Raven who saw his son understood a little then stood up, and whispered to Arnor.

"Arnor!, if my son happens to anything, you know who's going to get the theme, right?" Baron Raven while giving off a light killing aura.

Arnor who had not felt Baron Raven for a long time like this, immediately goosebumps as he said in a soft tone "Ready Sir".

Baron Raven then gazed at Reinherz with a smile "Dad will go first Yes Rein, see you later in the afternoon"

Baron Raven then walked into the administration building first by speeding up his path, Reinherz who saw his father as perhaps his father had a very important affair, because Reinherz rarely saw his father walk so fast.

Then Arnor lowered his body parallel to Reinherz then smiled to Reinherz "mister Reinherz do you want to take a walk to the City? or go around the administration building?"

"i'd like to take a walk in the administration building first Captain Arnor"

"Well then, sir, I'll guide you around the building"

---------------

In a room inside the administration building, all the Night Hawk Division heads had gathered, every time they gathered they were always arguing uselessly, before long they were arguing, before long they were arguing, the Night Hawk chiefs heard the familiar sound of a step, the sound of their king's steps, the sound of steps getting closer, all the chiefs immediately stopped arguing and immediately stood up, the entrance of the room opened, and there was a, it looked like a man of ordinary appearance but they were very afraid of the man, all the members bowed their bodies and saluted their king.

"Welcome, Lord Crimson".
