《A Powerful Duke In Another world》Volume 1 Chapter 3; Life until now Part-1
Advertisement
Dark.....Dark......DARK....... I can't see anything. It's dark everywhere.
"on....yon......Lyon". I opened my eyes and had to shut it down quick because of bright sunlight.
"Lyon" a feminine melodic cooing voice called me again and I opened my eyes slowly. Between the rays of sunshine, I saw a beautiful face, a woman with brown hair calling name Lyon lovingly. Her eyes showered the same warmth that my mother on earth had for me. thinking about her made me tear up again.
"Lyon!? Don't cry now. I know that you are hungry." and saying so she began to lift her shirt and eh..... eh.... wait that's not.....Well, no voice came out and her left breast was thrust in my mouth...I closed my eyes just before it but after feeling nothing I opened them again. I was surprised, I was suckling, yes but I can't feel the bo.... in my mouth.
Just then I remembered Old God's word about a dream full of memories. So I'm an infant Lyon right now. I nodded in my head but I don't know why I'm feeling much disappointed here. (Author: He is a virgin after all)
SLAM!!
"Lyon? Where is my son?" Just as I finished my feeding time, a guy, if I describe correctly, in a luxurious middle age noble clothing came in. He greeted my new mother and took me in his arms.
"My son. I had been away for a week. Come here to papa." And just like that, I was smothered with his cheeks on mine. What I came to know is, my mother name is Merian and my father name is Leviet.
The dream was showing me all the important memories of Lyon. And more convenient is that I was experiencing them as myself. Lyon's first walk, his birthdays. His book addiction from a young age and Uncle Mark, the hunter of Purgarian family teaching him about archery when he turned 2.

What? Why is it darkening again???
The next thing I know I was looking at a book about all the heads of Purgarian family till now. The book told me that Purgarian family has an ongoing centuries-long history. And it also read about the four kingdoms that made the now standing Sovern Empire. Milia, Comcel, Saluda, and Sovern, four nations who first summoned a hero from another world and that same hero who got them together as this empire. The king was selected by the hero's then introduced game 'chess' and Sovern's king won it successfully naming the empire after his country and his country got renamed to Royal State.
So just nominal King for the public eh? And the other three are kings but only nominal Dukes for the public eye. They still retain their power and only come together at times of war. Hmm sounds good to me when there are large empires around.
"Le-kun! I remember your father saying that this book is only for the family heads. You are not yet qualified to read this, the next in line inheritor of the throne." Okay don't get it wrong, the one who snatched his book was his Aunt, Lavina and she like she has always is just teasing Lyon.
"And where is Elaine?" She inquired which I just shook my head sideways.
"She was here a little while ago but....."
"And you ignored her and she went away. Am I right?" I was cut off on my automatic mode by her. (Author: Because he has no control here)
She bent her knees and brought her face so near that I could see only her face, both of her hands cupped my cheeks and a warm feeling spread over my chest. Wait, wait what is this? In automatic mode, so this means Lyon has a thing for his Aunt. That's gross for me. And my thought was cut off by her words again.

"Girls will always need attention, Lyon and so more from the guy they like. Even your Aunt is a girl and she feels happy when you pay attention to her. So, treat every girl better from here on." With that, she planted a kiss on my forehead. Okay, I take it back, If I was in Lyon's place, having a thing for this aunt is within reach.
She left telling me to find and bring Elaine back but then a sense of urgency came to me, I mean Lyon. He got up, Looked for his bow and arrow and sprinted towards the Forbidden Forest, where monsters run rampant.
It might have been 1-2 hours roaming around till I heard her scream. I followed it and reached the spot and there she was on her knees, looking fearfully at a monster known as One-Horned Rabbit, an omnivore. I ran and stood on in front of her with an arrow drawn back in my bow towards the rabbit.
"Lyon" She began to tear up. Seeing her like that, my automatic dialogue started.
"Wretched monster! You dare scare her like that." And the heroic entry ended when the rabbit made a bold frontal attack.
"Watch out!" Seeing it charging at me, Elaine shouted full of worry but I was caught up in something else within Lyon's inner voices.
Like Uncle Mark taught me, the path of the foe, the intensity of the wind, and the concentration to kill in one shot. Those things danced on my head and I shot my arrow as it pounced for me. it pierced through its left eye and out from the back in a straight direction without any resistance, thanks to this magical bow and its body fell in a heap. The first life killed by Lyon.
Elaine was speechless, with awe showing in her face, she tried to stand, she fell and her mouth left out a small gasp in pain. Noticing it, I could only run towards her and began searching for the problem. A sprain in her ankle. I wouldn't want to think about what could have happened if I wasn't here on time.
And she stubbornly refused to take a piggyback for a while. She stood up, took one heavy step and crouched down again in pain. Sigh*
Aside from his mom and aunt, it was Lyon's first time in contact with a girl his age. Delicate and soft is what he described her in his piggyback.
"Say, Lyon." She asked in a low voice.
"I'm listening" I replied my automatic dialog.
"Will you always protect me all my life like you did today?' She asked in a voice that was almost inaudible. Her arms around my neck tightened a little.
"Yes, I will. You don't have to worry one bit." And just like that, a sweet atmosphere formed when she buried her face in my back embarrassed. The hell dude? Do you even know you just proposed to her? I'm sure that is a type of proposal in this world according to that storybook. Well, my thoughts were, of course, unheard in this dream.
And just like that later that day, an engagement was made official between the future Duke of Saluda and the daughter of Duke of Comcel, thanks to a little girl narrating a story in her point of view in front of every important person present there.
And the young Duke-to-be who came to know about this news later replied he was okay with it and went back to his book like any other day.
Goddammit!! this brat is set up with a girl when he is only four and that is seriously irking me off for some reason, said a virgin 24 years old soul seeing this memory dream.

The Unsorcerer
DISCLAIMER: The cover pic is not my original work. Credits goes to the Illustrator. This is a story of a man named Cipher, a 21st Century man reincarnated in a world where magic is the way of life. In the continent of Iarica, the people of this land are able to wield the crystals or magic stones for whatever purpose they desire. These people are called "Sorcerers", blessed individuals who are favored by the Gods and gifted with an ability to manipulate "Mana", the energy of the World and the energy source that makes all of the machines run. Cipher in contrast, is not. He is an "Unsorcerer", a person unable to wield the crystals and mana and eventually magic itself. Because of this "defect", he is shunned, ridiculed, and abused by most people and eventually by the whole society. Little did Iarica and her denizens know, this so-called reject of society is more than what he seems... Note: This humble Author-san is not a native English speaker, so there will be grammatical errors. Also the chapters are short, about 1K words. However I will try my best efforts on reaching the 2k-4k words threshold. Another note is that this will be a Harem fic, so to anyone who are not fan of the genre this may not be your cup of tea. Any criticsm are welcome as long it can help me to improve my writing skills since I'm just a newcomer in this scene.
