5 Master, Your Parents...

A few days have gone by since the issue between First High Academy and Elite Magic High School. Since both schools took the matter on their own, so news about the incident did not spread at all but rumors continued to spread around.

After the incident, Alex became more strict with Claude and cautious worried that he might lose control someday. So he trained him despite he could not cast magic again since that day.

Inside one of the academy battleground, Alex observing Claude as he practices with battle simulation.

"Claude are you alright?" Alex asked

Claude was covered in sweat as he tries to get back on his feet, "I'm fine..."

"Let's let him try using one of the ACW..." Levin said as he brought a silver case inside the simulator room. "Claude try using this..."

Claude grabs the silver gun inside the case, they were just perfect for his size. He then examined the gun which seems to be modified especially for him. "Professor, this gun..."

"Yeah, I've made it especially for you, go ahead and try it out," he said

Claude got ready as Professor Levin left the room and back to the control room.

"Claude are you ready?" Alex asked

Claude just nodded his head as he focuses on the upcoming battle. As the simulation started, what Levin and Alex expect happened, they did not expect that their worst nightmare would be right in front of them.

"You know what to do?" Alex said

"Don't worry, I've almost finished it..." Levin said

"Are you sure it will work?" he asked

"She made the blueprint herself before she vanished, despite it was not complete her son completed it for her. But I wonder if he noticed the purpose of it though..." Levin sighed

It didn't take long for Claude to take down each robot down perfectly aiming at their core and shutting them down. As Claude turned around to face them at the control room, he soon fell on the ground and collapse.

Alex and Levin quickly went to his side as Alex grab hold of him in his arms.

"Levin you better hurry it up..." he frowned seeing the state of Claude.

"I'll have it done by then..." he replied as he left the room first.

Alex carried Claude around the academy since it was last alright there wasn't anyone around anymore except for the guards. Alex watches as the boy returned to his normal state as they entered the house, he then brought him to his room as Martha and Walden watch from the side as Alex carried the boy with such care.

"Master really like Claude doesn't he?" Martha asked

"He does, he has the same image as her..." he replied

Few days have passed by and Claude has mastered using the ACW Levin gave him, not only that soon he could cast magic as well. To Alex and Levin expectation, it did not surprise them at all but instead worried them. For others, this would be a great gift but they don't know anything at all.

Claude was just about to head to the academy when a man and woman step inside the house. Claude was frightened at the sight of the unfamiliar couple.

Walden came running in as Marth grab Claude away, "Master, Madam what are you doing here?"

"Walden is that the boy your Master have been hiding?" the man asked

The woman expression turned soft as she got down on her knees, "Come here boy..."

Walden and Martha contemplated on the situation, they were instructed what to do when this day happenes.

Back in the Chairman office in the academy, Alex secretary barged inside his office, "Master, your parents..."

He didn't even need to finish what he need to say for Alex to vanished from his sight. He took a deep breath before he run out of the office again and head to the house.

Martha did not know what to do, both presence of were much powerful than them. She then whisphered. "Young Master, you must run away okay.

Claude was confuse to what was happening, "Why..."

"Master, please don't do this..." Walden plead

"Both of you get out of my way." The man said as he started walking towards Martha and the boy.

But before he could step any further, a man stood infront of him pointing a ACW sword at him. His expression was cold and unfriendly.

The woman smiled at the sight of the young man, "Why must you show up..."

"Mother..." he said

Claude was surprise that Alex address the woman as mother, he wonder then if the man could be his father. Which means they are his grandparents.

"Come now, we only wish to see the child." she said

"For what? Addition to your army." Alex said

"The boy is gifted why won't you let us take care of him so you can focus on the academy matters." the woman said

"Don't be ridiculous, he is not yours to just play around with," he replied, "So remember you place, woman..."

The woman expression drastically changed, "You bastard, why you..."

The man then gave the woman a dead look, "Get out..."

It frustrate the woman in how the man was treating him, she did not agrue and did what the man asked him.

Once the woman was gone, the man let go of a deep sighed, "She looks like her..."

"Father please..." Alex plead

"I know, come here boy..." he calmly said

Alex gave Martha a signal to let Claude go, Alex then smiled at Claude telling him everything is fine. He then slowly walked towards them feeling a little anxious, Alex then lifted him, "Claude this is my father and he is your grandfather."

Claude was hesitant and buried his face on Alex's shoulder.

"At least bring him to meet the elders, you know how they loved her too..." he said as he headed to the door. At the same time, Alex's secretary walkin in and saw everything has been settle down.
