《Memoirs of an old traveler:First Rebirth》Chapter 09-Hey look at least there is a consolation prize, Wait WHAT!?!

“In a few years you will be enrolling in the national academy, there you will learn more about our kingdom, its families, along with the arts of battle and war” whaaaaaaat is going on, I never heard about any academy?!. “The academy not only houses the high nobility and lower nobility but many other citizens of our land who are there to advance themselves in the future through the knowledge they gain.” “However before then you will be going through the next stages of our families martial arts and ki teachings, what you have already had is just the crest of the hill, there is quite a lot, not to even mention the magier arts.” wait magic, I learned generally what it is but never saw it used seriously, fully trained magicians are not exactly common. “Now son while you may not be able to use it you can at least know how to apply it in the future or fight against it, but we have some hopes in that direction at least.” ‘whaaaat, stop half killing me already just spit it out’ these are not the words I say out loud, don’t think dad wants an interruption. “Starting with your grandfather the family has started showing some small talent for at least internal enhancement use, the most widespread variation though not the most powerful version.” wait I never heard about this.
“The talent was small and quite pointless but since you are the latest generation it might be at least high seedling grade or even low sprout, enough to warrant an actual serious education. The family has had mages married in over the generations so there is hope even if it is only a smaller chance for it to be inherited hereditary. But don’t worry even if you have no serious talent we can simply have you learn the family ki abilities, now those are tried and tested powers.”

“Dear you should get to the point.”-Norma
‘Dad, I know this is all important information but did you have to beat me over the head with it.If I was a normal child most of this would be over my
head already, sigh, must keep it internal’
“Dad that is awesome but is going to the academy our royal duty?”-Marcus
“No son that is only a part, over the next 2 years you will be fulfilling the first and a very important part of our responsibility, it is our family's’ honor
and soon your..”-Sherrod
“You will be the guardian knight and retainer of the Duke’s eldest daughter, the heir apparent Azalia of House Lenbarden”-Rasia
“Dear that was my job”-Sherrod
“You speak too much now let me do my job”-Rasia
“Yes mam”-Sherrod, as he droops his head in defeat while Norma nods her head in approval.
“You will be meeting the princess over the next three years until she is old enough to attend. Normally you would be joining with her but since you will be needed for visiting the nearby tribes and training with them you will attend the higher academy at 17. After you enter you will work hard for the years until the daughter herself attends the higher, but at the same time look out for her.”-Rasia
“As you can tell if you are smart one she is two years younger at 9”-Norma
“You will be introduced to her not as the third son of our family but as Marcus Wylevenzet. With this name you will also gain a full identity, Norma
take over.”-Rasia
“Marcus Zylevenzet will be the heir of the baronet family of that name which will be a distant branch family of ours.This should decrease notice from
most nobility and commoners, the only ones who would know your exact details will be the duke's family along with the royal family.”-Norma

“This should decrease the intrigue that will occur when you become her retainer and gives you a valid excuse of knowing the family arts as being the sole heir of a family branch you would be inducted in the head clans arts to some degree per tradition even as a branch family. Also if you slip up then we have the excuse that you fostered with us for years, if your sisters try something funny then you knowing them is not going to be strange.”-Norma
‘Yeah fun, they are so going to cause me problems. I mean look some of them are smiling deviously, keep calm and composed now. Letting them get to you is the point, no need to give them satisfactions. Also note to self, survival plans, alot of survival plans’
“For now you will start the next phase of your training, when you have learned enough you will be visiting the tribes on the border of our land as part of a goodwill visit. Both before and afterwards you will interact with the princess to get to know each other better for later.”-Rasia
“Good Fortune my son, I know you are up to the task.”-Sherrod
But im not leaving yet,My brain....my poor brain.
Stop giving me thumbs up Cade, Brad that is not how you carry a bowl...
Do I need to give you two talks about proper etiquette, I will get a headache while doing it but I will if needed
AN:A few edits but rather important for the overarching story since I felt that I needed more time for things to progress

Scholar of the Fog
Leaving a trail of blood as he climbed up a hill, his limbs felt like lead. He was gasping too, his lungs burning with every step he took. It felt like a bundle of broken glass was scraping away the inner walls of his flesh. He was dying, obvious to both him and his pursuers. And it would not be long till he dropped dead as he bled away. If not, the people chasing him would surely finished what they had came for. It was as if the Gods themselves had already predestined his fate. He took one step forward and stood at the peak of the hill. He let his legs rest as he could barely go on. Heaving deep breaths, he could hear sneering voices and shouts behind him. They were close, and the grim realization stoked the embers of his most primal fear. He did not want to die. He had dreams, like any other youth. There was glory to be had in this world. He wanted to learn more of life, and lived through its motions. He wanted to live. He swept his gaze, and across him was a spanning forest of old. With a glint in his eyes, and jaws clenched, he decided to gamble with all he had. He was dying, and by now, it did not matter where his grave was. He ran down the hill, and stopped where the plains and the forest met.
