A Mistake
Episode 1 -S1
There lived a young boy with the age of 11, and that boy was an orphan. Whom lost his parents to a big fire in his home at the age of 8, it was a big natural disaster and who do you think that is?
Yes, it is none other than Bert Andyman, our main character.
Ever since Bert's parents died, he had to live independently..All alone, and he managed to get a job that pays quite well, it was to take care of the farm animals and with that, he lived comfortably with a small cottage.
One day, as Bert was walking his way to work, a loud gush of wind came straightly at him and carried away his hat.
Bert yelped and due to shock of the event, he made a foolish act without thinking and immediately chased it into the woods, chasing it relentlessly. Going through bushes, going around trees. And soon, before he realized, the path he knows has already strayed away the more he went deeper.
Bert Andyman
The wind must be playing with me! Damn it!..
Finally, his hat has hit a tree's branch, stopping its motion completely, but, the hat fell down on a small pond of mud.
Bert Andyman
You have to be kidding me.. The wind must be enjoying this right now..
Bert was fuming until he realized that he was lost in the woods. He looked around and around..
Bert was starting to feel nauseous the more he stayed longer in the woods, remembering that the air is quite toxic these days.
Bert started to panic as he ran through the woods, the toxic air making it hard for him to breathe clearly, then the air finally went dense as he passed bushes and bushes, trees and trees.
Bert gasped for air, but, he collapsed to the ground. His legs felt weak and he couldn't stand up.
Bert Andyman
Wh..at..Th..e hell..is wro..ng with this fo..rest..?!
Bert crawled and crawled, the ground atleast had more air and gave him enough to survive as he got dirty and dirty..Leaves on his hair as he finally hears a carriage.
Bert Andyman
A-A carriage?!
Bert crawled faster as the air's density dissapeared and he managed to stand up, running to the sound and there.. He found a path and an old man with a carriage, the old man was simply stunned and shocked from Bert's appearance, looking like a complete mess as they both look at each other.
Old Man
YOUNG LORD?! Oh my goodness, what has happened to you?!
The old man immediately jumped down from the carriage and headed over to Bert, mistaking him for someone else.
Bert Andyman
What do you mean Lo—
Old Man
Young lord, you shouldn't be 8 hours far from your estate!!
Old Man
You must be lost! I shall help you get home safely!
Bert was cut off again and again by the Old man until eventually, he was put in the carriage as soon as the leaves and dirt were taken off. It was good news that the carriage was empty.
Soon..Bert felt comfortable in the carriage, sitting in such a soft seat, made him tired. Bert's eyes felt heavy and as soon as he closed them..He felt sleepy, not bothering to look outside and eventually fell asleep, not realizing that he has already passed 'Prim Town' his Town.
After 8 and a half hours..
Old Man
Young lord..We have arrived.
The old man immediately wakes up Bert and escort him out and Bert was simply stunned by the scene unfolding before him.
The town.. Was full of such lively, cheerful people, vibrant colors everywhere and each house looked grand and wealthy everywhere they went.. It was the 'Castlevania Town' the top 1 wealthy town, known far and wide for its wealth and lively people, second to the imperial capital.
Bert Andyman
W-What is this..
Old Man
What are you talking about young lord? This is your town.
They soon arrived, at the most gigantic, ginormous, grand manor.
Bert stood back with awe, knowing he isn't supposed to be there.
Bert Andyman
Old man, I don't live here..
Bert said blatantly, the old man looked at him in shock.
Old Man
No, young lord please stop joking ar—
Bert Andyman
I'm not joking.
Bert Andyman
Why do you think I was 8 hours far from my so called Town? Why was I in a dangerous random forest?
Old Man
I..I..Well it's also your fault! You could've mentioned it in the first place..
The old man scratched his head, clearly stressed.
Old Man
Then why do you look so much like him? What is your name?..
Old Man
Aren't you Bert Veulsch?..
Bert Andyman
N-No! I'm just Bert Andyman who lives in the 'Prim Town'!
Old Man
W-what?!..T-then i apologize! But wait..We must get out of here first!...
The old man immediately held Bert's shoulders.
Old Man
THIS PLACE IS DANGERO—!
The old man was cut off by a low, ominous, stern voice of a boy.
？？？
I was..Checking to see what was causing such a loud commotion here..
The boy looked up..Revealing his red eyes.
Old Man
L-L-LORD VEULSCH!!
The old man immediately knelt to the floor.
Episode 2- S1
The old man was immediately brought to his knees upon seeing Bertt Veulsch.. The Heir of the Veulsch House which is known far and wide throughout the capital, led by the greatest, strong duke second to the imperial family and if you ever so cross them, it is said that you would be decapitated or tortured.
Bertt Veulsch
Explain the situation here.
Old Man
Y-Young lord, please forgive us for trespassing! I thought this young man quite resembled you here and simply thought it was you, so I made my choice to bring him back here, I didn't know he wasn't you!..
The old man begged for forgiveness as Bert who stood back, not knowing what to do and without the information of the Veulsch House.
Old Man
A-and this young man has the same name as yours as well!..
Bertt looked over to Bert. Bert flinched and accidentally made eye contact with him.
Bertt Veulsch
You really are getting old.. We look nothing alike..
Old Man
I'm so sorry young master! I was worried and thought it was you so I br—
Bertt Veulsch
Just so I could owe you something?
Bertt Veulsch
I have already investigated everything about you, Merchant Sim.. You often participate in gambling and have a debt of 15 Million gold taels.
Bert Andyman
E-Excuse me.. This was all my fault, please forg—
Bertt Veulsch
Right..You are still here, this old man is a wanted criminal by the imperial family. So please don't bother to cover up for him.
With a snap of Bertt's fingers, 3 men that were hiding in the shadows came out immediately once they heard the flick.
Bertt Veulsch
Apprehend the wanted criminal.
Bertt pointed at the old man as he was panicked and tried to run away but he soon got tackled to the ground.
After a minimum events of the capture..
Bertt looked over to Bert
Bertt Veulsch
Why don't you spend the night here? You should be able to make it back tomorrow, it's quite late already.
Bertt suggested as Bert had no other choice but to agree.
Bertt Veulsch
Very well..Sanya.
A maid immediately appeared beside him, bowing her head down.
Sanya Scotch
Yes, young master?
Bertt Veulsch
Give him our greatest hospitality.
Sanya Scotch
That kind of?...
Bertt Veulsch
No..Not that..
Bertt glanced over at his maid with a sharp gaze.
Bert Andyman
I uhmm..Thank you for having me.
Before Bert knew it, he was already inside the manor, sitting in one of the living room.
Bertt Veulsch
There is no need to be so formal.
Bert Andyman
But you s-sound like an important figure!..Please excuse my rudeness earlier before..
Bertt Veulsch
It is nothing..
Bertt checked out Bert, looking up and down at him.
Bertt Veulsch
What is your name?..
Bert Andyman
Bert Andyman..
Bertt Veulsch
I see.. It is nice to meet you Bert..(Andyman huh?..What a common name..)
Bertt Veulsch
I assume that you're a commoner?
Bert Andyman
Yes, young lord.
Bertt Veulsch
You can just call me Bertt..
Bertt stepped closer to Bert, causing Bert to slip and fall on the couch.
Bertt Veulsch
What are you overreacting for?
Bertt leaned down to Bert's face.
Bertt Veulsch
There is no similarity between as, clearly.
Bertt Veulsch
However, I can quite see why. I usually wesr blindfolds outside to cover my eyes since they consider my red eyes of bad luck.
Bert Andyman
I-Is that so?.. But..
Bert Andyman
I quite find your red eyes captivating..
Bert looked away with his eyes, glancing over to the left in embarassment as Bertt was standing still infront of him.
Bertt Veulsch
Is that so?..
Bertt leaned down on Bert's face again but this time, he held Bert's hand, putting his fingers between his.
Bert was taken aback by Bertt's actions and quite flinched, Bertt's eyes never leaving him.
Bertt Veulsch
Your reaction was quite cute..And you're warm as well..
Bert Andyman
U-Uh.. Is that so?..
It was an awkward atmosphere as Bertt managed to pin Bert under him.
Bertt Veulsch
Hey.. I already got your background checked..
Bert Andyman
(A-already?!..)
Bertt Veulsch
You're an orphan.. Such a sad life you have..
Bertt places his free hand on Bert's cheeks.
Bert was sweating, feeling nervous as he look left and right.
Bertt leaned closer, their lips almost touching. Bert closed his eyes forcingly as Bertt paused for a moment.
Bertt moved over to his ear.
Bertt Veulsch
Why don't I take you in?..
Bertt Veulsch
Yes.. Forget what I said earlier.. You should just stay here with me..
Bertt Veulsch
After all, you are 8 hours away from your 'Prim Town' aren't you? I'll provide you with my utmost care here instead of that cheap town you live in.
Bert's eyes was widened, he couldn't believe what he was hearing right now.
Bertt Veulsch
Well then?..
Bertt's grip on Bert's hands tightened. Waiting for an immediate answer.
