When Esther and Avent came out of the cemetery, it was already evening.

"I'm going to pick up Kratos and Logan."

"I wonder how the two little ones are adapting to the new school?"

Esther opened the door for Avanta first, and after watching Avant get into the passenger seat, he got into the driver's seat and said to Jason and Arras.

Jason didn't have much contact with the two kids and didn't speak.

Instead, Arras laughed.

"Don't worry, the two little guys are very strong and won't be bullied."

Arras assured.

"No, no."

"Anas, you misunderstood."

"I'm worried they're going to get into trouble."

"This transfer used the relationship of Aite Demon's predecessors to finally transfer in, if you are withdrawn, it is really necessary to stay at home until the next school year before you can choose a school again, and it is difficult to enter a good school."

When Esther faces the two little ones, he will always unconsciously substitute for the role of the old father.

Avante, who was on the side, keenly noticed this.

"Kratos and Logan?"

Avant asked, thinking again, am I going to be a grandfather?

I just became a father, and now I'm going to be a grandfather...... Isn't it too fast?

"It's not."

Esther shook his head with a smile.

The nervous mood that Avant had had been a moment ago disappeared, but he was inexplicably a little disappointed.

"They are?"

Avant continued.

"They are the orphans of our comrades-in-arms."

"Their fathers were all bachelors, and after the sacrifice, it was only me and Aitdemont's seniors to take care of them, and some others, in order to hide people's eyes, we had to form the so-called 'Brotherhood'."

Esther explained.

"Orphans?"

"'Temple' again?"

Avante's brow furrowed behind the mask.

"Hmm."

Esther nodded, and after the smile on his face narrowed slightly, he started the car.

Looking at the sadness on his son's side face, Avant sighed slightly in his heart.

Obviously, after losing him and his wife, although Esther has grown up strong, there are still some hollow and unspeakable scars in his heart.

So much so that after Esther saw Kratos and Logan, who had experienced something similar to herself, she couldn't help but feel pity and substitute herself for it.

Thinking of this, Avante's eyes narrowed slightly.

He hated the 'temple' even more in his heart.

Originally, he had a happy family, a virtuous wife, and smart children.

And now?

His wife died.

His children are also adults, and he missed the most important period of his child's growth.

Although he was as sensible and intelligent as a child, the more he did so, the more he hated the Temple.

They were the ones who deprived him of the opportunity to teach his son.

Look at his son's strength, although he is stronger than ordinary people, but he does not have a little bit of his swordsmanship inheritance, there is no doubt that his disappearance was too sudden, suddenly to the point that there is no inheritance left at all.

The guilt rises again.

Mixed with hatred for the Temple.

He was now eager to find the lair of the 'Temple' and slash it with a sword.

But more importantly, Esther in front of him.

His son's strength is too poor, once he encounters danger......

Thinking of this, Avant spoke to himself.

"From tomorrow, you and I will learn swordsmanship."

"Huh?"

"Dad, can I still learn swordsmanship now?"

"Won't it be too late?"

Esther, who was driving, asked in surprise.

"Others will, you won't."

"Because, you are my son."

Avant said lightly.

"Hmm."

Esther nodded naturally, as if it should be so.

And Jason, who was sitting in the back row, watched this scene, and the energy of the continuous complaint in his heart couldn't help but want to gush out, but in the end he held back, and in order to divert his attention, he had to speak: "What is the name of Kratos and Logan's new school?" ”

"Xavier School for Gifted Teens."

Esther replied.

……

Kratos packed his bag at the end of the day, ready to go to Logan.

For Kratos, the school in front of him is no different from the school before him.

Except for the slightly more difficult course taught.

Talented?

Kratos frowned at the school's sign.

A course of this difficulty is not a genius.

However, maybe he and Logan were the ones who prep prep.

When you get older, it will be better to enter the formal or advanced class.

With that in mind, Kratos walked towards the next classroom.

Because they were transfer students, they couldn't put Kratos and Logan in two classes with the same number of people, so the two entered Class 1 and Class 2 respectively.

Kratos is 1 class.

Logan is in class 2.

The two classrooms are separated by only one wall.

The class has ended, and the doors of the two classrooms have long been opened, Kratos can see everything in the classroom without pushing the door, just standing at the door, but he can't find Logan, only a few students who haven't left whispering together.

The topic of conversation was Logan.

"The newcomer is miserable."

"How dare you provoke 'Da Wu' them."

"It's 'Da Wu' who bullies people, I'm going to tell the teacher."

"Hmm."

"We need to hurry, or the newcomer will be beaten."

The children's conversation told Kratos everything.

"Where was Logan taken by them?"

Kratos walked over and asked directly.

"The grove behind the school."

The children around were startled by the tall Kratos, and one of them said timidly.

"Thank you."

Kratos thanked him, then turned and ran outside.

The moment he turned around, Kratos turned gloomy.

Careless!

I forgot that every school has a special feature!

Don't be fine!

With such a heartfelt shout, Kratos ran faster and faster.

Even, when going downstairs, it was like parkour, jumping down the stairs.

It's hard to imagine a five-year-old being able to do all of this without seeing it with his own eyes.

No!

It's hard to do all of this, even as an adult.

Kratos, on the other hand, is accustomed to nature.

Because......

He is a true warrior!

Soon, Kratos rushed to the grove behind the school.

He saw Logan, surrounded by four or five children, sobbing as he pulled out a knife.

"Don't come here!"

Logan cried, but the knife in his hand stabbed the nearest child.

The tip of the knife is pointed straight at the throat, and it is ruthless and crisp.

The child who was the abuser himself had never thought that such a thing would happen, and he was immediately stunned.

Kratos's face changed dramatically.

His worst fears had happened.

He wasn't worried about Logan being bullied at all.

I'm just worried that the person who bullied Logan won't die too badly.

In a way, Rogan is the scariest one.

While sobbing and making the best bully, he didn't hesitate to pull out a knife and stab the opponent's vital point.

I really don't know how the other party's father educated the other party.

Kratos, who was thinking to himself, threw out his school bag.

Syllable!

The bag smashed into Logan's arm, and the knife was crooked, missing the target.

But it made the child fall to the ground in fright.

"Wow!"

The child cried and peed his pants, and then, when he got up, ran towards the school building, and the children around him ran away when Logan pulled out the knife.

"I'm going to tell the teacher!"

The kid who peed his pants yelled at Logan as he passed Kratos.

Kratos raised an eyebrow and stretched out his feet quietly.

Thump!

The bear child who turned his head backwards didn't see this kick at all, and was tripped and fell to the ground.

Kratos looked down at the tear-eyed bear child, and suddenly a fierce expression appeared on his face.

"Dare to talk nonsense, kill you."

Kratos said word for word.

The bear child, who had forgotten to cry because he had fallen to the ground, cried out again with a wow, and then got up and continued to run.

This time, though, nothing more was said.

Clearly, the bear child was scared.

"They did it first, and I ......"

Looking at Kratos walking towards him, Logan timidly did not dare to look up.

"Can't trouble Uncle Esther and Uncle Ettemon."

"You know what?"

Kratos said.

"yes, got it."

"I'll be patient."

Logan nodded.

"Why endure?"

"You're not wrong!"

"I'm just telling you that you can't use a knife next time in this situation, you still have hands and feet, beat them hard, if you can't beat them, tell me, I'll help you!"

Kratos' voice suddenly rose to a higher level.

When you're right...... Warriors, never back down.

Logan was stunned for a moment, and then, with a smile on his tearful face, showed a smile.

"Okay."

He nodded.

Then, the two of them picked up their school bags and patted the dust on them.

They didn't want to be seen by Uncle Esther and Uncle Ettemon.

And at this moment, the two looked into the depths of the grove in no particular order.

There, a little girl of 7 or 8 years old was quietly watching.

The little girl had shoulder-length blonde hair, and her eyes were very beautiful gray-green, and there was a sense of timidity in her eyes at the moment.

"Students in the regular class?"

Kratos thought, but didn't have any more thoughts of asking, and greeted Logan.

"Gone, Logan."

"Oh, got it, Kratos."

Logan nodded, and before turning to leave, he smiled at the female student who was supposed to be in the official class and waved his hand as a farewell.

This was taught to him by his father, and he should be polite.

The little girl who quietly looked at this place was stunned for a moment, and then immediately responded and waved her hand.

She watched Kratos and Logan disappear before disappearing into the woods.

Both Kratos and Logan just saw it as an unexpected encounter.

But the little girl wasn't.

She thinks she's made friends.

We'll definitely see you again!

The girl thought so.

Then, Logan, who was walking side by side with Kratos towards the school gate, suddenly raised his hand and touched his pants pocket, and he noticed that his knife was missing.

"It must have been careless and fell there."

"Kratos wait for me, I'll be back in a moment."

Logan said.

"I'll go back with you."

Kratos sighed like an adult, and returned to the grove with Logan.

And then...... They saw the girl again.
