Suddely Became A Child's
Eps 08's

[Master, I want to rob him!! ]

'Croft, relax. This is called parental love.'

The light ball is tilted to the side.

[I don't understand, why is pride called parental affection? ]

Croft may not understand, but Rein understands. And it made him feel bitter in his heart.

Gilbert was wary of himself. A child who was adopted by his son. That was why Gilbert asked about his abilities.

And Gilbert never intended to boast, but told himself of the power he had.

If one day he hurts or betrays Curran, Gilbert will fight him.

Since Gilbert could not convey his affection with a hug, he did so with a protection.

Rein envied.

He felt envious, looking at the parents of others who gave affection to his children. While his parents....

[Master, why are you crying? ]

Rein was awakened from his daydream. He felt a warm clear liquid flowing down his cheeks.

'Why am I crying? I'm not sad.'

"Rein."

Rosaly called. He was surprised to see Rein who suddenly cried when asked by his father.

"Yes Auntie."

Rein wiped his tears and called Rosaly.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm good, just a flickering."

Rein's answer was calm and stable.

Rosaly shut her mouth because of the answer given by Rein.

"Did something happen to you?"

Curran asked in a warm tone. She was confused when she saw her sister asking about Rein's condition, while her son was eating quietly.

"Nothing, I'm fine."

Curran nodded. He stroked Rein's head slowly, and said.

"Tell me, if anything happens to you."

"certain."

Rein replied late. Then he looked back at the silent Gilbert, as if he was waiting for an answer from her.

"Grandfather."

Rein called.

"Yes." Yeah."

Gilbert responded briefly. He was still shocked to see Rein's deep eyes and the tears streaming down his face.

He remembers seeing that expression on his son's face.

"I can mix medicine."

"Hm?"

Gilbert frowned.

"I will become an Alchemist, so that I can heal every wound and disease that others have. And I'll do what I want."

Rein says his wish and insists that his decision will not be changed by anyone, including Gilbert.

In his previous life, both of his hands had already killed many people indirectly. That was why, in this life he wanted to use his hands to help many people.

And.

By becoming an Alchemist, he could help many people at once earn a lot of money.

Rein refrained from smiling at the thought of his plan, and waited for a response from Gilbert.

"so."

Gilbert responds small. He put down his cutlery and looked at Rein with a warm look, then said.

"It looks like you're destined to be part of the Crimson family."

Rein tilted his head in displeasure.

Gilbert smiled slightly, and continued his words.

"My late wife was an alchemist."

Rein remained silent. He only realized that there was no mistress in this family.

[Hm, I did not hear any servants or knights talking about the mistress of this residence. ]

Rein heard Croft's voice sounding confused, so he answered through thought.

'Maybe it's a sensitive topic, so no one talks about it.'

"In the back of this residence there is a forest filled with herbs, relics of my wife."

Gilbert paused for a moment, before continuing.

"I'll give you the Green Forest, do whatever you want about it."

The corner of Rein's mouth twitched. He was happy, in this way he did not need to buy herbs from the store.

Puk.

Rein felt a clap that made him look up at Curran's face.

Curran said with certainty. He thought Rein was hesitant to accept the gift his father had given him.

'Hm? Why should I refuse it?'

[Of course, free stuff is the best. ]

'Exactly.'

However Rein did not say his thoughts, he simply nodded at Curran's words.

"Thank you Grandpa."

Rein thanked him for being given a place and herbs for free.

Gilbert smiled warmly then nodded, and then she continued eating.

"Rein, I also have a gift for you."

Rosaly said by giving a box with a red ribbon on it.

Rein received the box, and asked.

"Can I open it?"

"certain."

After getting approval, Rein opened the box which turned out there was a dagger with a red flower engraved on the handle.

Rein smiled brightly getting a dagger gift from Rosaly.

"I was going to give you a sword. But because your hand is too small to hold a sword, so I gave you a dagger. And it seems like my choice is right."

Rosaly explained with a fresh smile on her face looking at Rein who liked the gift from her.

"Thank you Aunt Rosaly."

Rosaly thickened her smile, then glanced at Curran.

Curran only glanced at Rosaly at a glance, before continuing his meal.

Dinner ended peacefully after the gift.

After eating, Curran was called to Gilbert's study. Rosaly returns to the room with her private butler, Emma.

And Rein, right now, is in Curran's room after being dropped off by Mark. Rein sat on the bed with a shirt that had changed into a nightgown.

In his hand was a bag of gold, a gift Curran promised to give money when he touched his palm.

"Croft."

Rein called.

[Yes Master. ]

"Use all the gold coins in this bag to raise your level, I need information about this family as soon as possible."

Although this family was kind to her, Rein had not been able to trust them completely.

[Hehehe, I will gladly do it Master. ]

Croft floated up and landed on top of a bag containing gold coins. Then, he began to absorb all the gold coins that were inside the pouch.

And raise his level.

Croft's ball of light gradually grew with the blinding light of his eyes, making Rein have to narrow his eyes to see.

As the light faded, there was a young man with a tiny body the size of a palm.

The young man had golden round eyes, golden hair, and wore white clothes with a blend of gold and red.

[ Master!! How do I look? ]

Croft asked with sparkling and enthusiastic eyes, like a dog asking for praise from its master.

"Imut, you look so cute."

Rein said his thoughts. But it made Croft put on a pouty face.

[Master, I am handsome, okay. Not cute!! ]

Croft protested when he said he was cute.

The corner of Rein's mouth twitched. It was as if he had said that phrase before.

"All right, you look so handsome. Well, now tell me the information about this family."

Croft smiled brightly as he was praised handsomely by Rein. He floated towards Rein's shoulder and sat there. And began to tell the information that had been obtained by him.

Rein listened carefully to the information provided by Croft. After a few minutes, he took a deep breath.

"Why is life so hard?"

Rein complained internally.

After hearing the information about this family provided by Croft, he begins to realize that it is not just him who is experiencing a bitter life. Except for everyone else too.

[It's okay Master, life is hard. That's why we have to be happy in this difficult life. ]

Croft patted Rein's head saying something to cheer him up.

Rein felt comfortable hearing Croft's line trying to comfort him, but the feeling quickly dissipated after hearing the next sentence.

[How about we rob? ]

Forgetit.

Rein assured himself that he had heard nothing.

[Hm, Master. There was someone who would come to this room using teleportation. ]

Rein immediately touched the dagger given from Rosaly just in case, upon hearing Croft's notice.

A figure of a young man appeared standing before him.

"Eh, since when in Ran's room was there a child?"
