Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 178

Episode 178: A family meeting held suddenly.

The parents’ reactions after hearing Ronian’s words were different.

“If you are a senior knight, you will be able to stay healthy wherever you go. I agree.”

With my father smiling proudly.

“Why?! Why would you volunteer to do such a difficult job! Why?!”

My stepmother’s expression changed drastically.

Although there was some agreement, Logan had no choice but to persuade his stepmother as he had promised his younger brother.

“Ronian is also old enough to study the world, mother.”

“No! What kind of nonsense is this? Do you know how much this mother cried every time you went to war? Now that there is some peace, are you going to live without your worries again?!”

“Honey, you told me to cheer up…?”

“I’m like a kid with you?!”

“….”

The head of the family, who had been seriously injured during the civil war and had been transported away, sank down with a wounded expression, but Marian’s expression did not move at all.

“No way!”

“Mother…”

Is it because he is afraid of being persuaded that he is ignoring Ronian’s earnest expression?

Marian immediately stood up without even looking at her son.

“It’s okay! Mom is absolutely against it. There’s no need to say more!”

It’s clear that he doesn’t want to listen to what I’m saying.

Ronian couldn’t bear to say anything more and just looked at Logan.

‘older brother. I can’t convince my mother. please!’

Logan sighed softly at the clear appeal conveyed through his eyes and spoke to his stepmother, who turned around.

“Mother Ronian is also an adult soon. You can’t raise her as a child in your arms forever. I hope you think again when considering Ronian’s future.”

“Yes, you said it well. You will soon become an adult, but you have not yet become an adult! Are you going to send a child like that out into the world bare-chested?”

No, it’s not a bare body, but it’s something that needs to be taken care of…

Oh, this isn’t important.

“Mother. As you said, Ronian is still young, but he is a warrior who has already gone through wars many times. He is fully qualified to choose his own path.”

It was a standard line for persuasion, but it did not reach Marian’s ears as she was already worried about her son.

“Did you, by any chance, try to persuade me to go out into the world and suffer a bit?”

Logan’s sigh deepened at the bloody look in his eyes that reminded him of the confrontation between himself and his stepmother a long time ago.

“I was against it at first too.”

“But why…”

“Then I was persuaded by Ronian.”

“what?”

“I told him to go out into the world, gain a lot of experience, and try to surpass me. So I said yes.”

A brief conclusion that omits the process.

Since there was no way that alone could convince him, Logan added an explanation.

“Ronian is truly talented. Does your mother, Ronian, want him to simply remain as McLane’s second son? He has the talent to become the greatest knight in the kingdom. For the sake of his future, I think it is right to do as he wishes here.”

Logan calmly talked about the future.

My son’s safety and my son’s success.

Although Marian’s eyes slightly wavered, her mother’s heart could not help but lean towards the former again.

“Still, it’s dangerous…”

“If the life of Ronian, a senior knight, is in danger, this world will already be hell. Don’t you already know that it’s too much to worry about?”

“….”

Of course, Ronian will go to places that are a bit dangerous to train.

Logan left those words out for the sake of persuasion.

however.

“If Ronian goes wrong, it’s hell for me! What’s wrong with being a child in my arms! You’re not even an adult yet! You don’t have to do that martial arts training right now. Just a little more…”

It didn’t work for Marian. .

And Ronian, who had been silent as he looked at his mother’s expression, stepped forward.

“Mom, I know the reason you’re worried is because I’m not good enough.”

“No, why are you not good enough? Our reliable son….”

“If it were you who were going on a training trip, would your mother have been so against it?”

“…That’s not what you said. I am!”

“Mother, I will come back safely. I will grow even stronger than my brother and come back as a more reliable son. Please believe me.”

“Ronian…”

Ronian’s red eyes, which were clutching both of his mother’s hands, did not waver at all, unlike the first time, and his mother’s black eyes, which had been shaking, quickly regained stability.

At that moment, Logan realized that his mother had given in to her son’s appeal.

‘I can do it well.’

And as expected.

“…When did that little thing grow so big?”

With a small sigh, words flowed from Marian’s mouth, similar to the thoughts Logan had expressed just a few hours ago.

Marianne, who was caressing her son’s hair with a worried hand, wiped away tears repeatedly as she realized once again that her son had grown older than her.

After the family, including the person involved, waited for a long time without saying anything, Marian, who had gathered her emotions, opened her mouth again.

“Do you really have to do that?”

“Yes. I was convinced that was the path for me.”

“You’re not going to do anything dangerous, are you?”

“…Yes. Of course.”

Ronian, who was momentarily taken aback, received a glance from his older brother and hurriedly froze.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to lie to reassure your mother.

Marian eventually nodded her head.

“Okay. Have a safe trip. Don’t forget to contact me regularly.”

“Yes mother.”

“Oh my. When did my son become like this…”

The two mother and son hug.

With that, Ronian’s warrior training was confirmed.

* * *

“Is it really okay to go this plainly?”

Logan’s eyes looked around the empty surroundings.

As the family’s second son sets out on a journey of unknown length, the only people watching are him and his parents behind him.

Although it was something that bothered me, the expression on the face of the person who refused to participate in the grand event was relaxed.

“Is there a need to make it grand? I’m just going out for a while.”

My younger brother describes a journey that may take years as if it were a brief outing.

Even compared to when I brought up this agenda a few days ago, I felt mentally free.

“Okay. The moment you think you’ve achieved your goal or you feel like you’re having a hard time, come back right away.”

“I will definitely achieve my goal and come back.”

I was about to give my grinning younger brother a tight hug without saying a word and send him off, but my senses, which were useless, detected a small sob coming from behind.

‘Mother…’

I had a firm belief in my younger brother, but even so, I thought it would be better to give a little advice to my younger brother, who was entering the world alone for the first time.

“Okay. I think I’ve said it a few times already, but let’s check it again. What’s the most important thing when you’re wandering around as a mercenary or free knight?”

“It means don’t trust people carelessly.”

“Okay. Why?”

“This is because if you show skill or wealth, there will inevitably be people who approach you wearing a mask in order to take advantage of it.”

Logan nodded with a satisfied expression.

“Yes. A blade swinging from the front can be blocked with skill, but a knife stabbing from behind can cause fatal wounds without you realizing it. Be careful of people.”

“Yes brother.”

“Oh and…”

“…?”

“Be especially careful with women. With your skills and looks, there will definitely be a woman who attracts you wherever you go, but then…”

“Brother.”

“huh?”

“You’ve already said it several times.”

“Oh, that’s right. But listen again. Back then…”

Ronian chuckled, perhaps finding his older brother’s expression funny, but Logan was serious.

‘It’s all advice that becomes flesh and blood, man.’

I trust my younger brother’s skills, but experience is important to avoid being easily caught in various dirty tricks.

I had to generously share my decades-long experience in my past life.

For my younger brother.

But for some reason, as time passed, my younger brother’s expression became increasingly hard.

“Brother tongue. Stop now…”

“Huh? No, we’re talking about something very important right now. Just listen one more time. So, if you go to the vanguard and get surrounded…” ”

Brother! It’s already the third time. Talk…”

“Huh?”

As I was looking at my younger brother, who had a tired expression on his face, it seemed like the position of the sun had changed slightly.

There it is.

“…I guess we’ll leave tomorrow like this.”

“I’m okay with not letting it go like this.”

“Uh huh honey. Still.”

“No. That’s just what I said.”

The sound of his parents’ voices coming from a little distance made Logan embarrassed.

“That’s right. Have a nice trip. Don’t forget to contact us regularly and check our location. If you’re late, he’ll come pick you up right away, so make sure to!”

“Yes. I’ll keep that in mind!”

At first glance, the brightening expression on his face seemed like that of a liberated prisoner, but that was probably due to his mood.

“Have a nice trip!”

“Keep in touch!”

Seeing his younger brother bow his head and turn around in response to his parents’ greetings, Logan was able to realize that his future had truly changed.

“You’re crying again. Hehe, I’m right next to you. If Ronian turns around, you’ll see it right away. How can you leave because you’re so worried? People. Really…”

Padric stroked the back of his wife who was sobbing in his arms. He chuckled.

“Sniff. It’s noisy. Sigh. That’s why it’s better for me if you don’t leave.”

“They are grown children. Let them live the way they want. We only think about ourselves. Now they are old enough to worry about us.”

“Still, what should I do if I’m worried?”

“Why didn’t you really worry about me during the war when you were so worried?”

“What do you mean, again?”

Marian looked at Padric with a puzzled expression.

“Why was it only Ronian last time…”

“That’s what you said. Of course we were all worried. You and Logan too.”

“Ah… Haha. That’s true too, isn’t it?”

“What is it? Are you jealous of your son?”

“That’s not jealousy…”

He sighed.

“Don’t worry. I won’t worry anymore.”

Marian, who had stopped crying, made a firm determination as if she had decided on something.

“Hmm? Why does that happen again?”

“Instead of worrying, I will prepare. Ronian can come back at any time and rest comfortably.”

“…Anything like that.”

Finally, Padric, who was completely relieved, responded with a bright smile.

“You should leave the manor affairs to Logan.”

“I can take care of it, so what do you think? Like you said, let’s prepare well so the kids can rest when they need it.”

“I’m the one doing the preparations? You’re supposed to work. I heard that Logan hasn’t been able to sleep these days.”

“No, I didn’t leave everything to you, but I’m the one with the knights…” As the couple’s grumbling voices quietly rang out at McLane Castle, where the

sun was setting.

‘You have to make sure you prepare to protect everything.’

Logan, who smiled at the sight from afar, strengthened

his

resolve

again .

How many hours have I been listening to?

I know everyone is worried about me, but I can’t shake the feeling that I’m still being treated like a child.

‘So I’ll definitely come back stronger.’

As I was gathering my composure once again, on the west side, where McLane Plain ends, a

blue-haired man standing against the background of the setting sun caught my eye.

Ronnie grinned as he looked at the man’s boots, which were covered in dust as if he had been waiting for a long time. Anne looked at him and shouted loudly,

“Victor! How long have you been waiting? I thought it was a stone statue!”

Victor, who had been waiting for the figure to get closer, chuckled.

“So how long have you been saying goodbye? I thought I had misunderstood the date.”

The casual language that had become natural now felt friendly.

Tap.

We bumped our fists, held each other’s hands, bumped our shoulders, and naturally a light hug followed.

“Have a nice trip.”

It was a short statement , but Ronian was also able to laugh sincerely because he knew that deep sincerity was in the air.

“By the time I come back, I will be able to deal with you with one hand. I’m nervous.”

Viktor chuckles at Ronian’s playful bravado.

“Just make sure you come back safely. Then, even if you haven’t grown up, I’ll take care of you somehow.”

“What are you doing?”

Laughing eyes cross and soon the field is ringing. It was followed by a burst of laughter.

With that, Ronian left the territory’s only friend to see him off and walked out on an uncertain path.
