"Teng. ," The sound of the clang of the clock indicates twelve o'clock in the afternoon.
I just finished my mom's lunch. Inside the house, there was only me and my mother. Dad just went downtown an hour ago.
"Reinver, I'm going to go to the market for a while. I'm going shopping for winter supplies." Say mother while carrying a shopping bag made of knitted wool yarn her favorite.
"OK" I replied briefly.
"Don't forget to lock the door after you leave!" Continue mother.
"Yes" I replied while nodding.
Shortly after, Mom left the house. I walked up to get the keys, then locked the house at Mom's behest. The atmosphere of the house became quiet instantly.
After that, I went back to my room. I picked up the next book I was going to read. A pretty thick book with a dark green cover. The contents of the sheet look grayish white overwritten paragraphs with very small black letters.
"What is this huh??" I muttered while narrowing my eyes after seeing the writing on the first page.
"Looks, I'll wear glasses after reading this book, '" I said in my heart.
'History, Base of Forces'
"Quite an interesting book title" I said excitedly.
I immediately read this green book. Slowly try to understand the meaning of each word in the book. Incredibly, this book explains how 'History' or history is the basis of power in this world. In short, the history of this world is divided into five.
First, the Histories of Marshal. History plays a big role in a country. History with the power to lead an army in defense of its country.
Second, Histories of Soldierlike. The most common history is owned by the people. About two out of three people living on the continent inherit this history.
Third, Histories of Warlock. History has the most powerful power. History is also the key to winning the war. If sharpened properly, it can be the most threatening thing for the enemy or ally.
Fourth, Histories of Proponent. A very rare history. This history can make a great contribution to the allies. The ability of someone who carries the Histories of Proponent is very useful to add value to a country.
Lastly, Histories of Excogitate. History endowed two clever hands to create. This history also plays an important role in the suppliers of equipment needed by the country.
In short, a baby born in this world will carry the fate of one of its parents.
In this case, the child always gets a 'History' from the Father or the Mother.it is unlikely that a child can inherit the history from both parents at once.
A person's history cannot be changed. For example, there are babies born to fathers who have Histories of Soldierlike and mothers who have Histories of Warlock, the baby will have no history apart from Histories of Soldierlike or Histories of Warlock.
In some cases, once every thousand years, a baby can inherit both parents' histories at once. These events are called 'Dual Histories'.
Of course, it is undeniable that the power that the baby has will be very large and have the potential to be the strongest, but most cases of Dual Histories that have appeared in this world end in death. The human body cannot contain that enormous power, thus forcing energy to go out continuously which ends in death.
It is unbelievable, but this system may be more like Class or Job in Video Games.
This book has been very effective for me. It's like opening a new light for the future. I became curious, what is the history that my father and mother passed on to me?
"Tok tok.., Mom's coming home" Mother's voice knocked on the door.
I who just finished reading the book immediately went out of the room and ran towards the door.
"Czech..," The sound of a door lock being opened.
Mom immediately went to the kitchen and immediately washed and put the vegetables and fruit that she bought into the storage box for the next week's supplies.
Then, after Mom finished, she went to the front yard and sat on a small swing leaning back.
"Capeknya..," said the mother who was heard by my small ears.
I came out with the dark green book I read. Mother turned her head towards me and extended her hand as if calling me to sit beside her.
I immediately agreed to mother's invitation and sat down beside her.
"What book is that?" Ask my mother curious.
"This is the book you gave me last night, ma'am" I replied, showing the book with my small hand.
Mother took the book I showed her and skimmed through the contents of the book.
"Reinver, do you understand the contents of this book?" Ask my mom again.
"More or less..," I answered hesitantly.
"Mother, in the book, will explain the history that the parents passed on to their children, what history will I get later?" Ask me excitedly.
"Mother has Histories of Marshal, while Your Father Has Histories of Excogitate." Mom answered while stroking my white hair.
"Maybe you'll inherit your mother's history later." continued my mother with a small smile.
"Where did you know that I would inherit history from you?" Ask me a curious.
"Many people who carry Histories of Marshal are smart people. People who easily understand something. You understood this book when you were three years old, right?" Answer mother.
"Requivalent to people who carry Histories of Excogitate. People who have this history tend to find it hard to understand something.., like your father." Mom continued with a little smile on her face.
I nodded and confirmed my mother's words.
"Now is not the time to know what your history is. You will know when you are six years old." Say Mother.
"What will happen when I'm six? Chirp me.
"By the middle of the year, every six-year-old will be instructed to go to the central mainland to know what history they will receive son" answered the mother in a soft, silky voice.
"Middle land?!" I murmured in my heart.
My heart was pounding when I heard the phrase Middle Mainland. All I thought about was that I could go to a place with such a towering and majestic building.
"Woahhh..," My expression with an open mouth made my mother laugh as well as ended our conversation.
The sun had already started to set, the bright blue sky had changed to yellow with a hint of orange mixed in.
Mother immediately entered the house and left me who was sitting swinging on the swing.
I still cannot imagine what will happen to me in the future.all I can do right now is learn about this world.
Moreover, if it is true that Mother said that I have a mark will inherit the Histories of Marshal that she has, I am required to be a broad-minded person so that I must continue to learn.
