TWELVE RING SYSTEM
014 - ABOUT A FAMILY

“Have you heard from Roma Raffa?” ask the boy from Lucca de Luca, he's Edrick de Luca.

It has been more than a few months since the death of Lucca de Luca, Edrick continues to search for the existence of Rome, because since then he still continues to hold a grudge and want to avenge everything that happened.

Because it turns out that storing anger is not as easy as he thinks. However, even so until now Rome has not met.

“No word from him yet, Young master,” replied one of the soldiers.

Edrick was sure about that, because all this time there was no news from Rome. It was as if they thought Rome was swallowed by the earth, it had even been traced to every place including the nearest kingdom, but still there was no news.

The results obtained are also.

Edrick could not do anything because he also did not have such great strength, he was still learning basic magic that could not rival Rome.

While Rome alone has defeated his father, Lucca de Luca, who even then the father has used a scorpio star ring.

Edrick knew that the star ring had extraordinary powers, far above the average witch in general, but still lost to Rome.

Edrick promised that he would continue to learn witchcraft and its power to defeat Rome one day, when he also became a king, part of the empire.

The empire may not yet know that Lucca de Luca died because of the murder of Rome, but one day he promises to tell them everything.

And then ask them for help to capture Rome alive or dead.

The mind of a child of Edrick's age is already filled with evil things related to the death of the father.

However, Edrick feels that it is not a crime, because he only asks for justice for what happened to his father and also in his current life that is not okay.

Edrick is now an orphan, because his parents are gone, his mother died a few years ago because of a disease that does not know what his name is, he did not know about it.

After his mother died, he also lived with the father who loved him so much that his father died and then died, because against Rome, which is a few months ago.

***

Meanwhile, Edrick de Luca is busy thinking about how he can take revenge for his father's death in Rome, Roma itself is busy carrying out many missions and until now he has had many points and ranking increases

That ranking made some people envious of his luck in completing many missions solo, causing him to earn many points from Guilds.

Until finally emerged a theory from some people that, in fact, the strong is the Black Cat who is always with Rome.

As a result, many people have bad intentions and want to make the Leo Black Cat as their pet, here are many battles to maintain Leo. All were destroyed by Rome.

Rome could not allow anyone to have Leo, for Leo had sworn to be her pet for life.

After all, Leo will be safer with him than being with others, because other people do not have such great strength to be able to keep Leo.

Because Leo has the power of a star ring that will certainly be targeted by many people, if they realize they will also definitely try to take the ring from Leo.

Therefore only Rome is worthy to keep and maintain Leo until anytime.

“You know, you're wasting your time betting with them,” Leo said later.

“I didn't want to do that, but I was distracted by what they were doing,” Roma said.

“And you can ignore them.”

“Can't be Leo, after all it's also my way of telling them that I'm strong and can't possibly be comparable to them.”

It might sound so arrogant, but maybe that way he said that he did not want to be bullied by the other guild members.

He runs all the missions not to compete with them, but to get a lot of points and also so they don't have to be afraid of it.

Whereas some of the missions that Rome took were old missions with an S rank that was very difficult to do.

Again, he doesn't have to care what happens and what they think.

***

“What does Uncle think?” roma asked later one night when he saw Tere was still at work.

“You, Rome. Why did you wake up last night?” tere asked Roma who were currently sitting in front of him.

“I woke up thirsty,” Roma replied later. “Ah I saw Uncle was daydreaming, what did Uncle daydream?”

Tere was silent to hear what Roma asked earlier, because he had daydreamed before.

Usually he is not like that, but this time it is different, because he is thinking about something that makes his mind a little unsettled, namely about his wife and children.

"Uncle just misses son and wife, Uncle," Tere said later.

Hearing what Roma asked made Tere look sad, then told him what really happened.

A story he may never have told anyone.

For some reason when he saw Rome he felt he saw the child, which may be if at this time there is still the same age as Rome.

After that Tere about his life story to Rhoma before he was there he had a small family where he and his wife lived.

They got married a few decades ago, with a simple marriage because they were just commoners. Not the nobility in general.

After the wedding they were blessed with a child, but unfortunately shortly after giving birth the wife died and made Tere so sad.

However, it did not last long because he had to take good care of his son.

When his son was a few months old, he had to move to the capital and get the offer to become a manager at his former workplace, the Eagle Guild.

Because he thought he needed money to support the only child he had, he accepted the offer and eventually became a manager.

"Then where is Uncle's son now?" rome's question then cuts Tere's talk.

"It's gone too."

Tere is back to telling stories. The boy was so active that he could not be silent and liked to play but unfortunately Tere could not continue to accompany his son to play because he had to take care of the Guild where he worked.

Often his son played alone. Until one day an ill-fated incident happened to his son, the child who was attacked by a giant snake monster he had tried to help with all his strength and release his son.

His son was able to escape but his life was not helped and eventually died.

Tere was saddened by what happened next to him for a few years, but until finally he realized his sadness would not make his wife and children come back to life.

And he lived his life into a new person without having to think about what happened before even if sometimes it still bothers him.

Hearing what Tere said, Rome was saddened. Because he also lost both his parents even in front of his eyes very horribly.

Although he is not yet as close as Tere, but one day if he gets a clear reason why his parents were killed maybe he will try to make love to him and return to live a better life.

True what the theory says that the dead will not come back again even though they feel sad it exists and continues to exist.

Maybe after everything is finished Rhoma also has to live his life and mission is to collect 12 Star rings because it is his main task to be revived.
