The Dark Heir
Robert's anger
"Is the academy beautiful?" mother asked us as soon as we got home from dropping off Robert.
"It's so beautiful mom! Lilia to the point of not being able to take her eyes off the academic building!" lilia replied enthusiastically.
On the way home, Lilia did not stop raving at me about her ambition of studying in the royal academy.Even father was overwhelmed to calm down that passionate Lilia.
Mother smiled as she stroked Lilia's head.
"Mother is sure, Lilia will study and become one of the 7 elite of the academy, as well as your sister.Mommy will always support you", said the mother who made Lilia smile herself.
The seven elites of the royal academy.From what I heard from Robert, The 7 elites of the royal academy were the seven best students in the Heragon royal academy.But this degree could only be possessed by students aged 15-17 years and possessed extremely strong magic skills.
Even so, I am quite sure with Robert.He is a smart child and has a very strong magic.Leave to wait until he was 15 years old.
"What about you, Gerald? do you want to enter the royal academy as well?" ask my mother who is daydreaming.
I woke up from my daydream and looked at the smiling face of my mother looking at me.
"Do you two know? Father and mother were once among the 7 elite members of the academy" said the mother with a smiling face.
Suddenly the mood was very quiet.
"What! why don't mom and dad ever tell me?!" lilia shouted which surprised me and mother.
This time the mother looks wrong.Meanwhile I see the father who opened the door from behind.Seems like the father accidentally saw Lilia who continues to shower the mother with questions so as to make her wave and leave the room.
Meanwhile, mother looks quite overwhelmed with Lilia who is getting curious.
"Later after dinner mom tell me yes Lilia, we wait for your sister to come back from the academy huh?" said the mother who tried to calm Lilia.
It seemed like Lilia agreed to mother's decision so she just smiled to herself.
I'm sure tonight will feel more fun, because mom promised to tell a story that means you also have to come and tell us everything.
...****************...
"Are you curious about Gerald's mother's story?" lilia asked while reading a book.
"Hmmm", I just mumbled.Honestly I was so curious that I didn't know how long I was daydreaming about dinner time.
Lilia closed her book and stood up from her chair.He walked towards the open window and just stayed there.
I understand Lilia's feelings are very curious about the story of mother.I also very much look forward to the story of mother and father who are the former 7 elite of the academy.
"I came home", the voice of a boy who suddenly entered the room where Lilia and I read books.
"Sister!" sahut Lilia while running towards Robert and hugging him.
"Why is big brother so old at the academy?" lilia asked after taking off her embrace from Robert.
"Silver took part in the selection competition between classes, Lilia.So sorry if you come home late", replied Robert with a laugh because of Lilia's behavior.
Robert's face looks brighter than usual.Robert's face usually looks like it has a very pressing aura.Added with his cold attitude.
But I don't know what happened at the academy, so it makes Robert's face look brighter.And I'm grateful for what happened.
Instantly Robert was silent.From the look on his face he also looked surprised by Lilia's words.
"Lilia, you're not kidding me, are you?" robert asked with his pressing smile.
Lilia's body suddenly trembled.So did I.We both felt very depressed with Robert's gaze even though he was just smiling.
"Ti-no brother, I'm not lying" Lilia replied stammering.
Robert looks very creepy this time.His face does not look smiling anymore.Now his face looks like holding back anger.
"Alright, then brother go first" said Robert out of the room.Even the room became warmer after Robert came out.
I don't know what happened to Robert, but he looks to hate the 7 elite of the academy.Lilia sat down with her body still trembling.
I walked up to Lilia and tried to calm her down.Robert never looked that angry in front of us.I don't understand the reason Robert hates the 7 elite of the academy.But it's quite terrible, it's quite, robert just smiled at us but it was different than usual.
"Did I make a mistake?" whispered Lilia who was like sorry.
I patted Lilia on the back while shaking her head.Lilia did nothing wrong at all.We both had no idea what was going on with Robert and the academy's 7 elites.
I put that aside, now I have to take care of Lilia who is about to cry.
...****************...
I walked slowly towards Robert's room.Since the incident, I was showered with curiosity.I wonder what happened to Robert in the academy.
I peeked at Robert's little open room.See Robert who was being embraced by his father and mother there.Robert's room condition was very messy, with many items frozen due to his magic power.
"I'm sorry Robert's mother and father, we should have known that a long time ago" she said, hugging Robert and crying.
"I'm sorry we're Robert, but we can't do anything about your problem.We're very sorry" said the father, hugging Robert tightly.
Meanwhile, Robert is seen crying by holding a book that has been frozen in his hand.
"I hate those elites! I hate them so much! they're the ones who make me no friends! they are the ones who manipulate school grades! they're the ones who keep trying to hurt me!" robert shouted as he squeezed the book in his hand until it froze and shattered into pieces.
I finally understood.I understand why Robert hates the elite academy.He already does not believe in the elite of the academy.
Hearing Robert yells makes me feel sad and angry.How dare the elite of the academy make an 8-year-old frustrated.
"Pardon us Robert, we will immediately transfer you from the royal academy to another academy" said the mother giving a solution while crying
"No need ma'am" replied Robert.
"I will stay in the royal academy, and sitting in the 7th seat of the academy elite, I will change the school system, I will still stand even if I try to be dropped many times", robert continued, standing looking at mom and dad.
"I'm sorry for being angry for no apparent reason, I'm sorry for bothering you, I'm really sorry" Robert said, wiping away his tears.
Mother hugged Robert again, this time with a very proud feeling.
I'm sure one day Robert will be able to change the academy.And if Robert fails, I will continue.
Seriate...
