Chapter 1 - I Am Kazien Altavis

"Live freely and achieve your happiness in that world!"

"GODDESS NIRFELIA, WAIT A MINUTE!!" The boy shouted.

The boy woke up from his sleep then held his head and tried to remember everything.

Ah... I just remembered. I've been reborn into this world. What a surprise!

He got up from his bed and walked out of the room.

In this world, I am Kazien Altavis! The fifth child of Duke Elgard Altavis and Duchess Larina Altavis. I am currently 13 years old.

Even though I am not an heir, my parents and siblings love me very much. I am very happy to have been born into this family. Goddess Nirfelia, thank you very much.

Kazien walked towards the soldiers' training field. He watched intently as all the soldiers trained.

"Young master, would you like to watch our practice again?"

A handsome, muscular, and tall man approached Kazien. He was Hellius, the strongest commander of the Altavis family.

"Yes, Commander Hellius. I am very excited to watch their training."

"How about you join in the practice, young master?"

"But, can I spar with you?"

"Are you serious?"

Kazien nodded and then smiled at him.

Hellius had no other choice and accepted his request.

They were in the middle of the field with a wooden sword in their hands. All the soldiers watched their sparring from the sidelines.

"Young master, are you ready?"

"I'm coming, Commander Hellius!"

Clack! The wooden swords clashed against each other.

Woosh! A gust of wind was created after their swords clashed.

A swift swing was aimed at him.

Clack! Kazien managed to hold him back.

Hellius was surprised that the attack was blocked by him.

"You can withstand my attack? You're amazing, young master!"

"Thank You, Commander Hellius!"

Luckily, I have this absurd ability. My eyes can follow and copy everything I see.

I thank the goddess Nirfelia for the blessings she has bestowed upon me!

Every quick attack that Hellius launched could be anticipated by Kazien very quickly.

He could sense the direction of my attack? Is he really a 13-year-old?

Hellius was a little overwhelmed fighting him.

Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack! The sound of two wooden swords clashing against each other continued to be heard.

All the soldiers watching the fight could only gasp. They couldn't believe that a 13-year-old boy could keep up with their commander's movements.

They continued to swing their swords with great precision and speed. Hellius became even more excited because he had an opponent who could match his movements.

I just want to copy his blink and hope he'll show it to me!

"Commander Hellius, please use blink!"

"Would you like to see it?"

Kazien nodded enthusiastically, Hellius immediately used blink. His movements were so fast that even the naked eye couldn't follow them.

Luckily these eyes could see the movements of Commander Hellius easily.

His eyes looked left, right, forward, up and sometimes he had to turn around because Commander Hellius was right in his blind spot.

Hellius realized he could follow his movements correctly. However, Kazien suddenly imitated his blink. The commander was shocked to learn his blink so quickly.

"Commander Hellius, that's enough! I only want your blink. Hehehe," he exclaimed honestly.

He stopped moving and looked at the silver-white-haired boy with disbelief.

"You can copy everything I do with just one look?"

Kazien nodded confirming his words, Hellius laughed very loudly in front of everyone.

"Why are you laughing, Commander Hellius?"

"Hahaha. I never thought you were a genius. Why don't you just go to the academy?"

"Study at the academy? That sounds like a great idea. I'll tell my parents. Thank you very much for the lessons, Commander Hellius!"

Kazien ran back home to the mansion to ask for his parents' approval. Hellius looked at the back of his master's son with a satisfied smile.

"Commander, young master Kazien is very talented. He can keep up with you and even imitate your movements quickly."

"I don't want to believe it either. But, young master Kazien is truly a genius."

"It's a shame he's not the heir to the Altavis family," the soldier lamented.

Plakk! Hellius hit his men on the heads.

"Ouch! That hurts, commander!"

"Don't talk nonsense! I'm sure young master Kazien will become a very great person in the future!"

Inside the mansion, Kazien was running to his father and mother.

In the living room, a man with silvery white hair stood. He was Elgard Altavis, a nobleman with the title of Duke who ruled the Altavis region and Kazien's biological father.

And a woman with red hair was sitting on the sofa. She was Duchess Larina Altavis, Duke Elgard's wife and Kazien's biological mother.

They were both surprised by the sudden arrival of their youngest son.

"Kazien, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?" Duke Elgard asked in surprise.

"Dad, mom, next year I want to go to the academy! Please."

His request really surprised his parents but made them feel relieved at the same time.

"Kazien, are you sure about your decision?" Duke Elgard asked to make sure.

Kazien nodded.

"But, I want to study in the library first! See you later, dad, mom!"

Kazien went to a room.

Creak! The door opened. There were many books neatly arranged on the shelves. He took one of the books on the shelf and started reading it seriously.

So this book is about this world, huh? But no matter! This will be very important information for me!

The world history book he had picked up made him very enthusiastic.

Elf? Beastfolk? Dryard? Wow! I want to meet a cute elf and make him my wife! Hopefully, I can meet him in the future.

He continued reading but there was a magic formula for taming tucked away.

Hahaha. I'm so lucky to have found a taming spell like this. But what should I tame? A griffon? A dragon? A phoenix? Or a Fenrir?

He continued reading and it listed all the different types of monsters that existed in the world.

Ah... that's right! Before studying at the academy, I wanted to be an adventurer and see all the monsters in this world like the author of this book did! But, I have to read and study all the books here!

Time passed, and Kazien continued to read all the books there nonstop. Even the next day, he continued to visit the library, just to study the many magic books. His parents couldn't believe their son was so diligent in studying the library.

Thanks to his cheating abilities, Kazien can copy and imitate all the magic formulas written there.

Amazing! So much magic has been recorded in my brain's memory. This ability is truly amazing!

At lunchtime, the entire family was already at the dining table. Kazien arrived last.

"Kazien, you took so long!"

A beautiful, red-haired woman was complaining to him. Her name was Selena Altavis, Duke Elgard's eldest daughter and Kazien's older sister.

"Hahaha. He's busy, Sis Selena. He'll be entering the academy next year."

The handsome man with long white hair was William Altavis, the second son of Duke Elgard Altavis, the successor to the Altavis family and Kazien's older brother.

"Ah... he's so cute! Come sit with me! I want to feed you!"

"I refuse! Because I'm not a child anymore!"

"You're so cruel, Kazien. Come on, sit here with me…" Virena pleaded.

The beautiful woman with long, white hair was named Virena Altavis. She was Duke Elgard's third child and Kazien's older sister.

"Davin, come here, let me feed you. Aaaaaa."

"Sis Virena, I'm not a kid anymore! You know? I'm already 16 years old! Even Kazien rejected you!"

The handsome red-haired man was Davin Altavis, Duke Elgard's fourth son and Kazien's older brother.

"You guys aren't as cute as you were when you were little. It makes me sad…"

Kazien approached Virena and asked to be fed by her.

"Aaaaa....."

Hap! Kazien accepted her feed. Virena was very happy that Kazien was willing to be fed by her.

"That's it, right? I'm going back to my seat again."

"Ah... how happy I am when I feed you. Hehehe."

Kazien smiled wryly after hearing her words.

Does my older sister have a brother complex? No! No! Don't let my older sister have a brother complex! If she does, I'll definitely have a hard time marrying anyone in the future.

"Kazien, you were said to be able to keep up with Hellius. Are you really a 13-year-old?"

"Dad, what do you think I am? I'm obviously only 13 years old!" he replied, annoyed.

That answer made his whole family laugh at him. Kazien pouted in front of them. However, his pouting expression made him look even cuter.

My family is truly the best! And I want to protect their smiles. But our togetherness won't last forever. Because in the future, we will be separated by death.
