The Dark Heir
Acquaintance

"Eat Gerald, you can get sick" said Lilia handed the grilled fish to me.

I shook my head slowly, rejecting the offer from Lilia.A few hours after we left the capital, we stopped at a river to rest for a while.The water looked very clear and fresh.If we did not experience anything bad, we would have, I will definitely play on the river.

"Gerald, do you want to help me catch some fish for supplies later?" ask Robert.

I just shook my head.I don't want to talk to my brother at all.

"Then you stay here and take care of our belongings.I and Lilia will look for supplies on the way later" ordered Robert.

"Alright", I replied softly.

Robert and Lilia immediately went to the riverbank to catch some fish.While I just sat there silently guarding the goods.

The sky today looks quite bright.Horned birds can be heard singing melodiously.Some deer are also seen drinking on the river bank.

"Gerald are you okay?" whispered a woman from behind me.

I was startled and immediately moved away from the voice.When my eyes opened wide to see who was there.

"Gerald, I'm sorry.I came to your house and only saw destruction there.Then I..."

"Where are you going?! " snap me.

Nyx was shocked when she heard me. Her face looked scared and full of regret.

"I'm sorry Gerald" replied Nyx.

"Where have you been all this time? had you not left, we would definitely not have experienced this! if you hadn't gone our house would still have stood firm! if you hadn't left, mom and dad...."

My voice was stuck in my throat.The tears of my eyes flowed back down my face.

"I'm sorry, Gerald, I'm so sorry", whispered Nyx hugging me.

Stupid me this.Not should I blame Nyx for what happened.Nyx is not guilty at all.But my emotions control me so I can not think clearly.

"Gerald! back off!" lilia screamed as she pointed her hands at me.

Robert was also seen pulling out a sharp ice sword from his right hand.Fearful and angry glances implied on their faces.

"Sister! please put your hands down, Nyx is not the enemy!" I told Lilia and Robert.

Only certain people can see Nyx.Do Lilia and Robert have special powers like a father that can detect dark creatures around them?

"What do you mean not the enemy? his dark magic aura looks huge Gerald!" snapped Robert.

I know they were terrified to see Nyx, but it was a natural thing.Their reaction was more or less the same as my reaction when I first saw Nyx.

"Calm down, brother, he is my friend.Please trust me brother", I replied.

Robert and Lilia looked at each other.Both lowered their hands.But their bodies still looked trembling.

"Include yourself Nyx" I told Nyx behind my back.

Nyx advanced slowly towards Lilia and Robert.Robert and Lilia retreated slowly, not wanting to go head-to-head with Nyx.

"Include my name is Nyx, I am a creature of darkness and one of Gerald Adelio's friends" Nyx said, bowing her head.

Ah damn, Lilia's face looks very creepy.Even her hands clenched tightly.

"Gerald my brother, how about you explain this to me?" take Lilia to take me away from Nyx and Robert.

I wish I was okay...

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

"Gerald, what do you mean by my friend?" ask Lilia.

Lilia looked at me sharply.We spoke four eyes behind a tree near the river.While Robert was just silent near Nyx.

"He's my friend, brother, don't you believe me?" my answer.

"Of course I don't believe it! how could you possibly be friends with a creature of darkness?" lilia Sahut.

"I've been friends with Nyx for a long time sis.She's a good friend of mine", I replied firmly.

"But he is the dark creature Gerald, he has the aura of darkness and also the power of darkness!" refute Lilia.

"So did I!" my answer.

Lilia was speechless and did not say a word at all.He looked like he regretted saying that to me.

"Then what's the problem, brother? Nyx has the power of darkness, so do I", I continued.

"But he's the evil Gerald"

"Until when will you consider all the creatures of darkness to be evil? Nyx is not an evil creature.He I consider like humans in general", I reply firmly.

Lilia was at a loss for words.His face was bowed, realizing that she had made a mistake.

"Alright Gerald, if you think your friend is not evil I believe" Lilia said languidly.

"Are you going to forgive me?" lilia.

I looked at Lilia's regretful face.However, Lilia was just terrified.There was no one who wasn't frightened so much as seeing the powerful aura of Nyx's darkness.

"I forgive you sister", I replied with a big smile to Lilia.

Lilia smiled at me. Her face now looked brighter.

"Lilia! Gerald! how long are you two talking there?" call Robert.

Jeez I completely forgot about the existence of Robert.Nyx looks to insult Robert by touching his back many times.Robert can only growl annoyed with the act of Nyx.

Lilia and I laughed at him.Robert looked very upset by Nyx's actions.

I smiled faintly and hoped.Hopefully that everything would remain fine.

Unfortunately I was wrong....

Seriate....
