Me: “I twot wrong. Ther was some ding I dwid inda phast year. Tee twime I spent wit mather, pather, and bwothers, I was very happy and it’s tee most pwecious year. (I thought wrong. There was something I did in the past year. The time I spent with mother, father, and brothers, I was very happy and it’s been the most precious year.)”
Mother:
Even if 10 years passed I don’t even think Robel would say those words. The great mind said to have written poetry at the age of 3, Kimciv, had watched the nanny cook and called it time consuming. Our Lippe is 2 years old! She’s well enough about to do that?
Mother and father:
*Makes eye contact
As expected our daughter is a genius….!
Mother: “You’re right after Lippe was born, for the last year everyone has been very happy. Right?”
Yes, what I needed to protect was this. My family’s happiness. Father died when I was 15. I still have time. Just because it’s a little urgent… I don’t want to ruin our happiness right now. I want to make more memories together from now on. I will look far ahead and wait for the moment. I shouldn’t try to grow up so quickly and should just enjoy the present.
Me: “Mather, pather, bwothers, you must gro old wit me. (Mother, father, brothers, you must grow old with me.”
Father: “Mhm of course.”
Why is she saying stuff that elderly people would hear. I’m still young and strong, but am I old in Lippe’s eyes? *realises No-! These days, if I eat less all my muscles seem to go away. They say that a baby’s eye can see the sun’s energy… Can they see this too?
“It seems I must increase the amount of training.”
Brother Lucius: “It seems that the white dragon knights will be going through some hell’s training.”
Brother Robel: “Why..?”
Brother Lucius: “Why do you think? Father said he’s going to increase the amount of training. Of course he isn’t going to train by himself.
Brother Robel: “Why do you suddenly want to duel?”
Recently.. actually ever since Lippe was born we’ve been getting closer. Brother doesn’t talk much and has a cold personality, but I’ve started to think differently of him. Other people might not believe it but, he really changed. We used to not talk to the point of never having an argument. But there were times where I found him fawning over Lippe. Also… Brother recently started patting my head sometimes, especially when I learn a new skill. Ever since I started training harder to be able to hold Lippe, training has become fun. Even after I mastered the head slash, I was still dedicated to training. I became more prideful of my swordsmanship. So, to be able to duel my brother who is known for his swordsmanship, makes me appear worthy enough to be his opponent.
Brother Lucius: “It’s called ‘retribution’”
Brother Robel: “Retribution…?”
Brother Lucius: “You start.”
Brother Lucius:
Up until a year ago he was still slacking off so his balance was off. He progresses fast..”
Brother Robel: “HYAAA!”
Brother Lucius:
Stilll… *dodges
Brother Robel: “Uwaa?! Ah!..!
I’ll get hit.. I-I’m scared. But father said that it is shameful when a knight closes their eyes during a duel.
Brother Lucius: *switches positions and hits him on the head
Brother Robel: “Oww. That hurts!!”
Brother Lucius: “I said it’s ‘retribution’ right?”
Borther Robel: “What exactly is that!!”
Owww… even though it’s only a hit on the head, it’s still painful. Why did he suddenly flick me…? Maybe…Did he do this because I flicked Lippe’s forehead. Even though he’s my older brother he’s so childish!!
“Brother. You know, what’s impermanence?”
Broter Lucius: “What??”
Brother Robel: “Lippe said impermanence yesterday…”
Brother Lucius: “You should start reading books.”
Brother Robel: “Ehhhh\~? No it’s boring though\~!
Brother Lucius: “If this continues, you might be the (dumb brother) to Lippe.
Brother Robel’s imagination:
Lippe: “I dwont wamt a dum bwother.” ( I don’t want a dumb brother.)
Brother Lucius: “I’ll leave then (dumb brother).”
Brother Robel: “W-who are you calling dumb brother!?
