The Dark Heir
Resurrection

Silent atmosphere dominates the father's work room.The chair that I occupy slowly begins to freeze.This silence is very gripping.

"Pronounce once more", whispered the father trying to temper his anger.

Nyx and I gulped at the same time.Half of my face was covered by a thin flake of ice that made half of his face freeze.

"Your sons Gerald was chosen as the successor of Lord Shadow, chosen as the heir of darkness" Nyx replied without taking her eyes off the father.

A sharp ice immediately formed from the hand of the father, as well as Nyx who released a dark energy.

"Darling! Gerald! are you two inside?", said someone from outside of Dad's office.

Father did not budge in the least.His face is now difficult to recognize.Something that resembles a horn appears from the head to his left.

"Fuckin' dark creatures".", whispered father staring at Nyx.

"Why? Why can't you ever calm me down with my family?" ask dad.

Meanwhile, the mother was still shouting at the door of the father's office, just waiting for the time before she forced open the door of the room.

"You creatures of darkness are the scum of the world that must be cleansed" said the father.

I can't do anything to Dad.Now half his body has started to freeze.Making him look like a creature I can't recognize.

"Death in peace" said the father to Nyx.

He jumped from his chair and charged towards Nyx with his hand holding a sharp ice.Just then, Claude and his mother entered the room forcibly.

Suddenly my body moved on its own.Without thinking I jumped towards Nyx.Both of my hands pointed towards the father who kept crashing with a sharp ice.Kalah healthy we both had not functioned at all.

I closed my eyes.Without what happened.Mother's screams, father's screams, and Claude's screams sounded vague.

I made myself a living shield for Nyx, resigned when father stabbed me with his sharp ice.

...****************...

"Gerald!" mom screams.

Ah, I must be dead.Of course no one will be able to dodge Dad's quick attack.

Slowly I opened my eyes and that was when the shocking thing happened.

Out of both hands, came a black energy that made my father's sharp ice turn into little powders.

My father was silent to me who used dark magic.His face looked like despair and did not believe in what he saw.Similarly with mother and Claude.

Nyx just silently looked at father and mother.Dad bowed lethargic.Slow ice all over her body began to evaporate.

"Mr Adelio, you are wrong to regard Gerald as a cursed child" Nyx said.

Dad just fell silent.Slowly his tears dripped, wet the floor of his study.Mother did not flinch from his place.Both his hands look clenched.

"What do you mean?" answer father.

"Just think about Mr. Adelio, it has been thousands of years since the great war no man can use the power of darkness.And this time, after thousands of years, no man can use the power of darkness, we found a child capable of harboring a deadly force of darkness" Nyx continued.

I never thought that mom could see Nyx, too.

"Darkness is the enemy of mankind! Everything was like Orcs, goblins, wyverns they were the killers of mankind!", the cry of an increasingly hysterical mother.

"You'd better see from the other side, miss, all you call fighters.We never kill innocent people.Very different from you" replied Nyx.

"Tell your master that we will not give Gerald to you, we will not allow him to be a creature like you" said the father.

Nyx smiled.His gaze seemed to underestimate what father said.

"Then what are you going to do? Giving Gerald to the Sentinels? Let him die on the gallows?", replied Nyx.

Father and mother do not think about it.It has become a rule for all the people of Heragon Kingdom, if you have any involvement with the creatures of darkness, then that is when the gallows wait.

"You have a point" answered the languidly bowed father.

I can only be silent.With this the choice of father and mother are only two.Either it kills me or hides my strength.

"Excuse me sir, you received a letter from Lieutenant Xander", Claude said.

Father looked at Claude sharply.Claude's body trembled a little.Daddy's gaze was indeed very creepy.Cold feeling was always inside that gaze.

Father stood up and approached Claude who was in front of the door.A red ribbon letter was handed to father.Meanwhile I was still silent with Nyx.

"Gerald, what are you gonna do with your powers?" ask the mother who began to dare to approach me.

My mouth feels locked.Everything I would say feels stuck in my throat.Even so, mom doesn't look to hate me at all.

"Mom asked again son, what will you do with your strength?" ask mom again.

"I-I just want to protect everyone" I replied spontaneously.

Mother was silent to hear it.Ah stupid me, the reason is too prevalent.Mommy will definitely not be satisfied with my answer.

Scroll slowly mother's face.Before I thought mom would be mad at me.Of course people will be angry when they see my strength.Darkness is basically the enemy of mankind.

But beyond my expectations, she just cried and smiled at me. She hugged me tightly.

"Use your strength to the best of your ability, son, use your strength for justice and peace" said the mother.

I saw the father who was behind the mother.His face now looks warmer.He smiled broadly at me.

"Dad believes in you son, you can definitely use your strength well" said the father approaching me and mother.He hugged us both warmly.

Meanwhile Nyx smiled at us.He went through the window of my father's study, gave us time to be together.Similarly Claude had quietly left the room.

"We believe in you son, this is your life.We can't manage what life you want to live.But we hope you don't use your power for evil, use it to give a sense of justice and peace", said father.

On that day I again cried loudly.Back crying like a baby.And at that time my magic power rose.The magic of darkness hated by mankind.

Seriate...
