TN: 4 more to go.
Oh yes, the author uses 14 (jyu-yon) to call John as they sounded alike in Japanese. I find it amusing so I’m keeping it.
AN: Introduction of a new character. As promised, a scholar.
However, 85 likes!?
The moment I saw that my eyes dropped onto the floor...
I am too happy!
Thank you!
It will still be slow-tempo from now on so youroshiku onegaishimasu.
Tonight, I was invited to the birthday party for the son of the famous Beryl’s house.
The head of a distinguished family as well as the leader of the knights, Gion Sama. Well known of his intellect and also his strength, as was seen by the military. A person I greatly respected.
My name is John Veltor.
I was born in a mid-class noble house and was currently a scholar. Even if I said so myself, I thought I could be considered as clever. But my house could be said as rotten. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
My father was deplorable and my foolish brothers followed his footsteps. They squeezed tax money out of their subjects and spent it on pleasure. How shameless.
As the 2nd son, I could do nothing. It was frustrating so to become someone who could stand up to that, I abandoned my house. Now, I was working hard as a scholar.
Gion Sama, whom I respected. As rumors went, he imposed good governance across his territory and when I met him in person, I trembled at his wiseness. How could such a perfect person exist?
......But....
I often heard rumors about Beryl’s house’s child.
That he was a genius.
That he was a prodigy.
Gion Sama said that too...It was unimaginable.
He was a strict person for better or worst.
But he was a parent after all.
This was disappointing. I felt like going home.
Possessing great intellect, was very reliable, that was why...
The person standing on the stage talking, was that really Gion Sama?
Certainly, standing in front of a crowd at only 3 years old was a little impressive but at most that meant his growth was faster then other children. [TN: You have no IDEA.]
In the end, this was just fond parents showing off their child, I thought as I looked up at the stage.
“”””” OOH! “”””
The young child walked out from the curtains. And the event hall was filled with commotion.
I too, unintentionally held my breath.
.....It was like an angel had appeared. Soft silky silver hair, that ended a little below his ears, swayed along the wind, green transparent pupils that stared gently yet with focus, he walked out with an air of composure. All of his well-featured parts were perfectly arranged on his face, like a miracle.
And most of all, the aura surrounding him.
You would not think he was just 3 years old.
His eyes, shining with intellect, faced the front.
” As introduced, I am Williams-Beryl. Today is my birthday party for celebrating me becoming 3 years old and I am really grateful to all of you for accepting the invitation. I hope you can enjoy yourselves and hope you have a great chime. ”
What in the world this was.
That speech with no hesitation, you would not believe a 3 years old child said it. He was a genius...no, a prodigy. Now I finally understood what Gion Sama said.
And then, he smiled gently.
An ANGEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A commotion stirred up again, Gion Sama said something but I could take nothing in now.
Lighting had struck me.
I wanted to talk to the child, Williams Sama, so badly that I could not stand it.

AN: Well well, what will happen to him I wonder.
It is about time for Will’s [cheat] to be seen by someone.
