The Rise of the Sword Expert
My Dad was a Great Dad

I spent the wine in my glass. Upon arriving at Veranses, Verion will use his own family horse carriage. This will be his first debut. People would be very curious as to who the Marquis' successor had been hiding all along.

Was he so beautiful that others would be blind when they looked at him? Is he a very strong man? Is he an influential person who has been hiding under a fake name? Or is he just an illegitimate child who just got expelled for not having a successor?

The nobles will guess the correct papers from their estimates. In noble socialites the thought of condescending skepticism is common to keep your position.

I mean, who wants to be low, crummy like Santessy used to be?

"We'll be on the same train for quite a long time, Verion."

When I smiled, he replied to me with a sincere and respectful smile.

"That's a very pleasant thing. Especially all this time I haven't had friends my age."

"Hahaha, you're the same. You see Akion's face, people are avoiding him." My father explained as if I didn't exist.

"Akion's face is handsome, and he's friendly. People will fall in love with him."

Verion's words embarrassed me.

"Yes now, if it was, they would have avoided it" my father lamented.

"Ehm, we're talking about travel, not about my face."

"Why, Brother? Isn't my sister's face handsome?" Renia touched my sleeve, and put on a sweet face with both cheeks filled with food.

I wiped the stain on the corner of his lips.

"My good looks are the winners."

Harzem raised his nose proudly. Many girls have admitted it, so she is confident and sure she will not lose on looks and charms.

After all, this is not a competition. I ignored Harzem, but my father shook his head, Harzem's overconfident attitude often caused trouble.

"alright. Shouldn't you prepare for another two days' departure?"

"I'm ready, Dad."

"Me too, Baron."

The atmosphere in the dining room changed a little. If one were to say the annual meeting conducted in the Empire was like a debut, but it was not.

At that point they will try to drop.

Moreover, I do not have the title of Baron. There is at least a little bit of caution on them regarding Sanktessy this year. How the emperor will place us will all have an effect on the running of the empire.

Even Verion was worried, if people were trying to get rid of him. Then I have said, we will be accompanying friends.

That way, they would think many times over even to try to mock.

like this to you, a brave and very great man. Worrying about you being scared and shaking like Dad is something I don't deserve to think about. Forgive me, Father."

"Dad." My voice is calm and deep.

My father was humbled many times, and had considered himself inferior by himself. I don't think what he's done is useful. His face was often frustrated in panic, other nobles would blame him and he blamed himself again for being useless despite prostrating to them to help Sanktessy.

"Dad."

I called my father in a deeper voice.

The atmosphere of the room was very bad. Their faces were bent, let alone the sad face of Renia seeing her father. Her small hand held tightly showed how sad and upset she was.

"Dad."

Finally I approached my father, and touched his soft back. I crouched down next to him, and looked at his eyeballs.

"Dad, don't humble yourself anymore. A useless father would not be able to educate his son this great."

I saw Harzem's face, and Renia's. Look, talented people gather in one blood.

"They're just manipulating us to believe we're inferior, useless, and worthless." I looked at my father again, the eyes were shaking, in my voice there was anger.

"So, Dad, don't ever beg them again. What they have, we'll be able to have on it."

The firm confidence I gave to my father and everyone present here. I do hate the rotten human power-hungry.

"Good." Finally he opened his mouth.

"Thank you, Akion." He hugged my body.

Then looking at Harzem, and Renia, the two of them came up to us, and spread their arms wide to hug. That warm feeling

calm and haru. Another family that has become my family. A gift from god.

Our feet are both the same.

After finishing dinner with haru incident. I apologized to Verion.

"I'm sorry you've seen my family's drama." I smiled stiffly.

"It's okay. That's something moving. You're a good boy."

He smiled sincerely with an expressionless face nothing happened.

"Thank you for understanding. Rest well." I bowed to him once, he did too. Then he went into the room.
