《Newborn King: Birth of a Legend》Chapter 2: Awakening

4 years later....
ugh..
Haa..
"RUN!"
Father said in a panicked voice.
Chapter 2: Awakening
Phew, we got away from your mom barely right Veyn?
It's been a good 4 years since I reincarnated.
I've been spending every second with joy.
My Idiot father is training me..
I'm 4 years old and is training swordsmanship.
A normal baby would probably be on a bed drinking milk.
Anyways, a good 4 years have passed and earlier my mother was chasing me and my father because she caught us training.
Also, my name stayed the same "Veyn".
In the past 4 years, I've been enhancing my Mana capacity and I can almost awaken!
The fruits of my effort have finally ripened.
Every night I sneak from my crib to the workroom. Though I was once a great king, escaping a mother's eyes is.. surprisingly hard.
"VERJIS!"
My mother's loud voice echoed inside the house.
"Oh no"
Father's panicked voice sounded pitiful.
I can't do anything since it's Mother
I just wished my father good luck.
"Have you been training Veyn again?"
Mother said with an angry voice.
"y-yes.."
Father stuttered with his hand scratching his neck.
I ran away from the situation and went to my room to do my exercise to improve my Mana capaticy.
Almost...
A bit more...
There!
Sfx: BOOM
Haa..
This refreshing air..
Amazing senses..
Beautiful sky..
Finally!
wait...
Sky?
"VEYN!"
Mother screamed in a worried tone.
I heard crashes and footsteps
and saw my dad rummaging through the pieces of broken things in my room.
"Veyn! Veyn! Where are you!"
Father said while looking around.
I noticed a white light surrounding my body completely
Seeing this, my father made an amazed face
"Woah...
it's been a week since my Awakening and most of my room have been repaired.

Human children can only awaken when their age is above 10 years old.
but I awakened at 4.
"Ru is our son a genius?"
Father said softly
"I think so.."
Mother said while being amazed.
Both my parents have their hands crossed and head on top of them.
My parents were arguing whether I should be enrolled in school or get a tutor.
Father was against the tutoring idea.
Mother was on the opposite side.
In the end, father won the argument and mother's words ended with a but.
An idea popped into my mind to just go to school and have them come with me.
"Ah."
My parents said while being dumbfounded.
We were getting ready to go to the Kingdom of Ceitioties
and I was suprised to know that my father was a High-class Adventurer. Though he quit because he was cripples.
Though he still had some connections when he was an adventurer.
On the way to the Kingdom of Ceitioties, we encountered 2 monsters called "Horned Wolves" They were D-Class so I thought they were pretty strong.
I had a change of mind when I saw them get obliterated by my father.
We were almost at Ceitioties after travelling for a day.
Upon entering the kingdom of Ceitioties the guards crossed their spears to check our identities.
After checking, they were surprised and immediately opened the gates.
When we got to the city we were greeted by some people passing by.
I wondered why and what my parents were for them to recognize them like that.
A while later, we went to an inn. Specifically "Night Owl's Inn".
The innkeeper had a happy expression on her face when she saw my parents.
I also questioned why she was like that, but I didn't mind.
We went to rest in the inn for a bit and ate breakfast there.

It was almost evening so we spent the rest of our time walking around and purchasing everyday things we needed. (also ate some sweets)
We were walking home when we passed by the "Adventurers Guild", seeing this my father let out a sigh and a smile.
One of the staff members who were putting up requests saw my father and immediately recognized him.
She invited my family inside the Guild to have a cup of tea.
My father was once a great adventurer.
In the Adventurers Guild, people were divided by rank.
The rank system was the same as the ranks of monsters, except without the legendary rank.
A-Rank.
Getting this title is a great honour.
On the road to get this you can get Enormous power, wealth and status.
My father was almost one.
Knowing this now, I glanced at my father while he let out a sigh.
I said what's wrong?
My father said "let me tell you a story..
there was once a boy who wanted to be someone great..
He trained above others, ignoring everything else.
When he set out to be someone great his wish came true. After many battles and through hardship he became famous and was on verge of greater success.
He trained and trained. Without knowing his limits, his body gave up on him."
Father told me in a sad tone.
The rest of the way inn was incredibly awkward. Thanks to earlier I suppose.
In the middle of the way to the inn
I saw a little girl in a hood getting hit by rocks and called "Demon" by a group of kids.
Judging by her height she was most likely the same age as me.
I couldn't stand it seeing a kid like her getting hurt by rotten kids so I stepped in a little.
I told them to stop but they wouldn't.
though I hated the fact that I was going to raise my hand for a couple of kids I just intimidated them a little.
They felt pressure as I stepped closer and closer to them.
Feeling terrified they ran away in fright.
I gave my hand out to the little girl and said "Are you alright?" in a worried manner.
She said yes while stuttering and holding her hood tightly.
She held my hand and her hood was blown by the wind uncovering her face.
She had white hair and red eyes.
She looked unique.
I said to her while smiling "Don't let others step on you next time"
She had a thankful expression so I eventually said goodbye.
"As expected of my son" My father said proudly.
"You're so Amazing Veyn" Mother was proud.
The heavy mood went away and we went back to the inn as we were tired and sleepy.
The sun went down and the night began.
Another day in my life.. as a Newborn King.
