Chapter 6: Mother and The New World

Ah its bright, I hurriedly check the surroundings and my body to check for any injuries

Phew looked like I survived, I thought it was the end again

I got up and looked around and noticed something different, I tried to peek outside the window with the help of chair

This doesn`t looks like the same mansion we use to live in, this one is better condition and walls are different, were am I

That reminds me how is mother condition, last I remember I felt weightlessness, she wrapped me around to protect me.

I went outside the room, normally I sleep with my mother due to maids contempt and fear

I wandered around the long hall, looking for anyone

Damn this small body, I to hurry up and find something to eat before I pass out

Young master you are awake, let me call the doctor

I turned back around and saw a woman in maid uniform, I don`t remember seeing her at the old mansion, not only that she didn`t ran away or responded to my appearance

Can I get something to eat?

We went back to the room, after that a person came and check my pulse it felt like something coming and going outside my hand that person was holding maybe he is a doctor of some kind and told me I was alright which seemed

After eating and resting for some time

A man wearing a butler costume came in

Hello young master Einphelios, how is your health

I am fine, whose house is this and where are my parents

That good to hear I am Jean, I am the head butler of Viscount Valette Mansion

We are at your father`s house Viscount Youm Valette mansion

Youm Velette, that isn`t father surname, but father also got a new title of Viscount recently according to what I heard, did he changed his surname … what else happened during I was asleep

Did my father change his surname?

Yes

Where is he now and where is my mother

You were unconscious for 5 days my lord, you were in a carriage accident, carriage you were in fell of the cliff due landslide,

I am sorry to tell you this but your mother late viscountness Emilia Nerdant died two days ago due to serious injuries of that accident, here funeral happened yesterday.

Your father left for the capital for some work.

Mummy died

My mind was in turmoil of emotions and thoughts, why it happened, is it true I am a misfortune to everyone.

Tears falling out of my eyes, although it was sad it wasn`t enough to cry; as a doctor one see many of the dead person relative cry and fall into sorrow state

But my personality and mental age build up never feels those kinds of emotions to seriously, they come and pass by.

But why am I crying, maybe its my body age and hormones, although it wasn`t long but still she was my mother, only protecting me, feeding me, embracing me, teaching me, to care about me since my birth.

Ah this is excruciatingly sad and depressing, too much for a 4-year-old, now I understand how those ptsd kids felt on their parents died

I think it will be alright to cry given my body age, yes cry it out

I slept peacefully after crying.

Next day I went to graveyard with a knight and the same maid I met yesterday, her name is Gina she seems to be my personal nanny

Emilia Nerdant

19756-19782

Wife of Youm Nerdant

Former Red Royal Knights Commander

Bearer of Cursed Demon Child

Angry, sorrow, despair all emotion at once

Seriously they are dragging cursed child title to her, I was furious but what can I do I am just I kid it any form of nuisance would be pointless to act of child.

Cool down, not point creating useless thoughts right now.

I put down the flowers on the grave.

Mother, mommy, mummy... why just why did I do anything wrong, why did you loved me, please comeback mother please please I am sorry I am sorry... please.... I silently wept while standing

You were always there protecting me but now that you are gone, I have no one now to talk about my worries but don`t worry I will protect myself from now on, you might not know but my real age is 20 so don`t worry me, and thank you for giving birth to me.

Sorry mother I wasn`t able to do anything for you even though we were of same age. Goodbye, have a great long life in your next chance mother. I hope I live up to your standards.

After that I rarely visited mother`s grave, father gave away his duty of king`s personal knight and now works as a Viscount.

He seldom talks, but we do have dinner together, he doesn`t seem angry but rather depressed in agony. But he gives everything I might need, talks nicely; one can say I relationship is just a normal father son relationship.

I turned five, this year; I can now finally walk and run freely without falling and also free to roam around the whole mansion, though I mostly stay holed up in the library however still I go out nearby mansion to explore the area. I mean anyone will be astonished with fact of another planet with human life and not only that different mysterious forces, plants, different species so many things.

Even though our mansion isn`t as big as Marquis place but its still big compared to modern era, it has 8 big rooms on each floor, two big libraries, two football field sized garden; I recently learned about this region in the library, viscount region is pretty large but mostly barren mountains and marsh and fields with no proper irrigation supply, no big church, and is on the corner of the kingdom near the north border so most of the citizens are either soldiers, mercenary or adventures.

There are in total four maids and thirteen knights and a butler, me and father in the mansion.

Maids were specially appointed by father so that they don`t run away after seeing me

While none of them openly fear me or condemn me like those in Uncle`s place but some of them do talk crap about me sometime.

As I was able to read I started researching on what my curse is, but all I could find was something of popular folklore story

Fight between an ancient demon lord with blue and yellow eyes, and the hero of the kingdom who also is the founder of kingdom Vishkew, it's really long poem of kind about hero`s braveness and , in summary after defeating the demon while hero was returning, a witch appears out of nowhere and cursed the hero for killing her lover

Hero`s descendants were cursed to be the one to destroy the kingdom and demon king would be reborn, so when a child with star mark and two different eye colours is born it will be mark the beginning of the destruction of kingdom.

But there were no such child born in last 300 years thus it just became a folklore

But that was before I was born, as soon I was born imperial family went nuts,

I think I survived because of father ,as he is close friend of the present king and also one of high ranked swordsman of the kingdom.

Though this new mansion be better then the old one, but there are new restriction here

I am not allowed to go outside the mansion area.

I am not allowed to step in imperial palace.

I am not allowed to go near drawing room and dad`s study when there are guests.

They also changed my eye colour to black using some solution, its temporary but takes nearly 3 weeks of come of.

And many more restriction but inside mansion there are no restriction

But I don`t care because there is much more entertainment in books

Although its still little crude I started writing a record of kind of everything new I see in this world.
