"Now if you would allow me, I would like to take the young master with me."
She asked once again, but Eleanor didn't say anything.
A short moment after, she asked again, but with a tiny bit weight on her tone.
"You must be tired, dear hero. May I take the young master with me?"
Bit this time, Eleanor yielded and gave me to her.
Setsuna happily took me in her hands and said,
"Rest well, dear hero. I will take care of young master now, I have been waiting 2 years for this moment."
After that she took me with her and closed the door of the room.
Inside Eleanor was feeling a little hollow inside, she was a bit nervous.
'Does she know about him? What if she tells him?'
***
Outside the room.
Setsuna was all smiles holding me in her arms. It felt she might even start dancing at the pace she is going.
But that didn't happen. Instead, she took me outside the castle.
Yeah, the place where the hero was residing was the castle. But I know she doesn't come from a noble background, so it must be one given to her by some noble who she helped in past.
Setsuna walked a little further ahead in the garden. It was a beautiful place, but secluded from the outside world as well, maybe this castle was made in between some forest, but I don't feel any sign of human settlements near us.
"Does it feel good here?"
She said after inhaling a long and deep air inside her.
And then looked at me with a mysterious smile.
"You know, i have been waiting so long for this?"
There was a strange glint in her eyes. It seemed as if she was possessed by something.
She then touched my lips with her finger, her smile vanished as she did that and she asked me, "Did you like it? You enjoyed sucking her breasts?"
I was beginning to get a chilly feeling from her. And I do hate to admit it, but I am feeling nervous with the way she is asking me. Who even asks a child that?
But all of that suddenly vanished again and she returned to that all smiles again,
"Of course you will like that. That's what babies like, right? Haaa... how foolish of me, right, coward?"
She shook her head and looked at me again.
But her smile crept me up. She gave me the feeling of being a prey.
During our time together, she has called me by one name almost every single time and that name was... coward.
Not too specific reason, she called me that portraying that I can't respond to her advances on me.
She is calling me that again, so does that mean she knows that I have been reborn?
"You remind me of my brother so much young master. So can I call you that?"
Or maybe not?
"Ah, why am I being so foolish today? How can you even reply to me, right, coward?"
After that, she chatted with herself for a bit, of course I only listened and couldn't say anything.
It hasn't even been an day since I am reborn and so many things have been going around me.
Once, it feels like they know that I have been reborn but then the doubt arises on my heart, how?
And then the next moment that doubt vanishes when they treat me like a child again.
Maybe all this is just my imagination, maybe the thought of them finding out about me is making me more cautious of them.
So let's just accept that this is my life now and live with it.
With that thought, I accepted the reality.
Time then passed, smoothly? Not sure, but it became bearable after some point.
As an adult inside, imagining myself as a child wasn't an easy task. But I did get through it.
Now it's been 6 months since I have been reborn.
Nothing out of ordinary happened till now.
It was just a quiet life with mother and Setsuna. During this period, their behaviour have been quite unusual... how do I explain that?
They are constantly in a state of friction, mostly because of me.
But I have gotten used to it by now.
Ayesha haven't returned after she went out the day I was born. Her hands must be full with all the things that's been going on right now.
Even though, I haven't had any connection with the outside world in all these 6 months but I have heard a few things about the war that has been going on and the role of Ayesha in that war. These were mostly from the maids of the palace and some from books.
And yeah, I can read. Well, I could read even before but now that a few months have passed, it feels normal to me to show them that I can read.
Due to the mana that has been flowing in me, it has helped me to grow much faster than what a normal child should be growing at.
At only 6 months I can speak fluently, but I still try to keep it moderate.
And I can walk too...
Currently I am the little library of mother. She has placed many books here, from the past history to the books of the current time. She just lives to read, maybe that's where she has gotten her interest in rune magic.
There are many books related to rune magic too, but i don't have any ounce of knowledge of that language.
Just now, I have finished reading the book that said what happened in the war 2 and a half years ago. The war between the vicious and cruel demon king and the glorious hero...
The war that changed the world completely.
And I am frustrated and enraged by the author of this book.
Don't let me find you, bitch.
