LUmm. I know that this chapter is short, cause I came home from school super tires and I tried to release a chapter, and I can only manage to write this one, so plss understand. But Ill release 2 chapter tommorow.
in Meltos was born in a village near Ancard, she was from a low class family, 2nd out of 5 siblings. Her father was a farmer and her mother was tailor. Her life was peaceful and even though they were poor, she was satisfied.
When She was 9, a herd of magical beast, numbering almost a hundred with of the monster being rank C which has the power to kill tens of men, attack the village. Their guards in the village were killed in an instant without resistance, her parents and her elder brother and 3rd sister were killed, only her and her 3 yrs old twin siblings managed to escape the onslaught.
Now being the eldest of the 3 siblings, she decided to take refuge in Ancard capital. The distance between her village and the capital can be travelled ind 3 days by foot, they only have some gold coins, which is enouh for them to live for a month.
While travelling, a band of bandits attacked them, having no experience or training for combat, she still protected her siblings. Just before the bandits sword hit her, the bandit started burn and with a few seconds the bandit died with his skun burnt and his face unidentifiable, and it was the same to the other bandits, the remaining seeing their comrades die one by one, fled.
After the bandits fled Lin and his siblings were dumbfounded about what happened and staring the corpses lying around. Until a female voice spoke to her.
"Are you okay? Are you hurt? Are your siblings fine?" the source of the voice was a beautiful pregnant woman, which beauty is enough to make her, a girl, blush.
"Yes! Thank you for saving our lives" she thanked her and bowed gratefully, together with his twin siblings.
"Ahh don't thank, I haven't done anything, it was my husband that killed them" she said and pointed at a figure, it was a beautiful and fragile looking man.
"Thank you for saving us, Im Lin Meltos and this are my twin siblings, the boy is Alrin and the girl is Alren" She introduced herself and her siblings.
"No need to be polite, I'm Cella and this is my husband Rolant. By the way where are you headed and what happened to you?"
"We're heading to the capital, well we-"She explained about what happened to the village and how they were attacked by bandits until they met them.

"Then come work for us."Cella said
"Ehh?"Lin was dumbfounded.
"You don't have work right, We need some maids, is that okay Rolant?"Cella followed
"Well, we need some workers and I think they can be trained, so it's okay"
After hearing this Lin can't be help but be grateful to them, she knew that even when they arrived in the capital, she aill be jobless and the money they have is not enough, and she trusted them for they save their lives.
They were able to adjust fast in their new job they are very grateful towards them for giving them a new chance, and she pledged her life in serving Cella and child to be born.she also learned about Cella past, which grwatly resembles hers.
A few months her siblings were found to have rare talent in magic, which mostly nobles have, and them being poor wasn't given the chance for the magus assessment. They were sent to Pragia Academy in the Central, which is the top school in the Pragia.
After few months the madame gave birth. It was a beautiful black haired boy which resembles his mother, the birth was successful but the child didn't cry until after a few seconds which is strange. A few months he notice that the child has a beam of intelligence in his eyes.
As the child grew up it was thought to be a prodigy, within a year he can some basic words and when he was 2 he already can speak almost fluently with some minor mistakes which is abnormal for a 2 yrs old.
Even the child is a genius , the child shows no arrogance and kindness like his mother, which made Lin thought to herself that she will serve this child until the day she die. She was fortunate to have met and serve a family like this.
When the child was 2 and a half years old, they were summoned to the capital of Frolt empire.
They were 2 carriages she accompanied the madame and young master, together with another maid, which was hired half a year ago. The travel went smoothly until the 3rd day at night, they were preparing to sleep when the young master shouted they are under attack, the voice of the young master was commanding difeerent from his usual, innocent and childish voice. After a few minutes the young master shouted again and many figures emerged from the forest.
The number of the assaulters greatly exceed their own, which is almost triple. The only thing in Lin's mind was to protect her master, until something comprehensible happened, the aura around him changed, suddenly the assaulters laid down on the ground limp and dead and and the guards were rendered unconscious. they knew that the young master did something but What she doesn't know that they were excluded from the pressure emitted by Hakua.

They were dumbfounded at the scene before them, the assaulters which greatly outnumbered them were being killed in a matter of seconds, as they were watching this scene, by the corner of her eyes, the other maid attacked Cella with a knife which caught them offguard, She was knew she wouldn't make it until the necklace of Cella started to glow and a thick white aura eneveloped the mistress, a white smoke atacked the traitor maid.
And with that she lost consciousness.
--------------------------------------
After making sure his mother is fine he laid his mother on the ground covered by cloth, along with Lin who also lost consciousness. He already knew what happened, Sera explained it to him. He ordered Sera to burn the corpses.
A few minutes the guards started to woke up, they were confused about what happened, but Hakua made up a story which a strong female warrior helped them, and they accepted.
After a few minutes his mother and Lin also woke up, he knew that his mother and Lin saw him killed the men.
"Mom are you hurt?"Hakua asked worried
"No, I'm okay." She replied
"How about you Lin?" He glanced to the Lin
"Im okay young master" Lin replied
"By the way Hakua how did you did that?" His mother asked
"I also don't know mother, when I thought that you will get hurt, rage suddenly took me, after that I saw I killed them" He only told half of the truth, it is true that rage overtook him but he was still conscious
"Is that so.. Im glad you're okay and nothing happened to you" She replied with a smile, she knew that her son was lying, she knew that when her son lied, He will play with his nails. 'I think Hakua will tell me the truth at some time' she thought, she knew that her son wasn't normal.
Then after talking to his mother he went towards the two guards who remained standing and saw him killed the assasin
"I hope you keep this a secret" he said in a cold tone, enough to make them shiver.
The guards can do nothing but nod, they saw how this child killed those hundred assasins all by himself and only within a few minutes.
Then after a few minutes, they all fell asleep except for some guards for guard duty and Hakua. After ensuring his mother and Lin were asleep, he used [Hide Presence] to slip by and went into the forest. He search for a spot to lay down. After finding a good spot he laid down and stared at the night sky, recalling what happened earlier,
"It was my first time killing someone yet i didn't feel anything"he thought. "Did my mentality completely adapted to this world".
When he killed the assasins, he didn't feel nauseous or pity towards them only some anger. He knew that if it was the old him, he would surely hesitate about killing them.
As he was thinking this, He fell asleep.
------------------------------
In a dark cave a middle-aged man was talking with a veiled woman, the expression of the man was full of fear and despair.
"I can't kill him! He-He is a monst-ter! The kid killed all of us only I survived because he spared me!" The man said while trembling, his eyes was full of fear.
"WHAT SHIT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT! How can a child kill all of you!" the veiled woman angrily yelled towards him.
"Then you kill him by yourself! You'll know he's a monster!" the man said to her shouting.
The woman trust this middle-aged man, when she wants someone to be killed he always call this man, she knew that this man wasn't the type to create and exaggerate stories. She breathe deeply and said.
"Okay. Tell me what exactly happened. "
The man started tell the woman on how they ambushed the carriage, and how the boy killed them within a few minutes. After hearing this the veiled woman couldn't believe what she had heard, other part of her says that this was impossible but the other part of her that to believe the man told her.
She knew that she couldn't do nothing after all that man was one of the most powerful assasin in the Frolt empire
------------------------------
The next day, they decided to continue travelling.
Their travel went smoothly until they arrived at the capital, as they entered, He was mesmerized about how big the capital walls are, it was almost quadruple the size than the walls in Ancard.
As their carriage pass by He can see the livelinees and difeerent stores in the plaza. Then after a few minutes they stopped at huge mansion, three times bigfer than the mansion in Ancard and in the entrance was a female looking man, it was his father.
