The Absolute Twin Magician

Bathory (part 2)

" actually, my mom and dad died 7 years ago "

" We were 10 years old then..."

   The Bathory family fell silent at our response. Elie and Liana did the same thing. Naturally, this is the first time we have told them about this. Instantly they all looked at us pity, at once concerned.

" I'm sorry to ask you that.it must be hard to lose an old man, but you're still very young..." Miss Celica said concerned.

   Hearing Miss Celica's response, Kayn and I shook their heads.

" We're used to living independently, after all, there are people who take care of us right after mom and dad are killed." Kayn replied. We both tried to smile .

" Then as our apologies, you two stay in our house first" Vermount said, proposing.

   And of course we both rejected the proposal outright.

" I'm sorry, we can't do it" Kayn said "after all, our existence will only make things worse for your family"

" You're not putting us in any danger at all, take it easy" Ms. Celica said. " Anyways you can be in danger of hanging around these nights"

" There's a special reason why we can't keep up with your request, Mr. Vermount and Ms. Celica" Kayn replied politely.

" Don't worry about us. We won't be in any danger. Even if criminals come to us, they are in danger" I said.

" Zayn's right, don't underestimate the Endarkers." Kayn continued with a smile "so-so, we are a family of witches "

   Elie and also Liana smiled looking at us. Of course, only they understand what we mean. Only they saw the fight in person at that time. The Bathory family seems to have begun to be relieved and accepted our reasons, although a little ambiguous...

" Well, if that's the case, " replied Mr. Vermount "if you want, you can play at home "

" It is with pleasure"

   Kayn smiled, then looked at Elie as well as Liana.

" Please take care of Liana, Elie" he said

" Alright, leave it to me" Elie replied as she blinked one eye.

" Elie, explain Liana's condition to your parents, but don't let our identity leak out, if you still love your family" I whispered. Elie was a little surprised.

" The person who knows about our identity could have been targeted by the devil. We may still be able to protect you and Liana, but not your family." I replied. Instantly Elie became a little relieved "excuse me for dragging you into this matter Elie"

" It's okay, after all, it's my own wish" Elie smiled broadly.

   Our conversation was over, Kayn and I got up from the couch and faced Elie's mother and father. It was about time we left.

" Mister Vermount, Mrs Celica, thank you for the dinner. Your tea is so delicious "praise Kayn "we have to go home soon. Sorry I couldn't fulfill your request..."

" Well, there's no need to apologize like that. It was just a selfish request from me" replied Mr. Vermount.

" Elie, Liana, take care of yourself" I said. Elie and Liana replied with their smiles.

" Good night, Endarker brothers"

" Good night, Mr. Vermount Bathory"

   After saying those words, Kayn and I were escorted to the front gate of the house by a servant who was told by Mr. Vermount. It was so late, we really had to go home. Haah, what a tiring day. I never thought it would be this late. Yes, it was a pretty stressful situation. You see, this is the first time we have faced such a powerful demon. His strength was almost on par with that of a demon king. I'm still not strong enough to deal with it. Inevitably we had to drag our exhausted half-dead bodies home to get some rest.

   The atmosphere of the road in the town of Bluelagoon tonight was so quiet. It seems like it's already entering the middle of the night. All that accompanied us were street lights and some sounds of night beasts. It was a quiet night.

" Hey Kayn, you know it..." I said "about dad "

" One listen to me, I know right away, although it's not entirely true" Kayn replied. " Dad was a magic knight, but why were we never told about it?....why did Oliver and Stephanie keep it a secret from us?"

" Yes.I'm also curious about that" I replied lethargic "if it's true that father is a magic knight as well, then what's his title and number?"

" If the number is possible..zero? Magic knight number zero, that sounds cool, doesn't it?" Kayn asked smiling. I smiled thinly.

" Yes.that's if you're really a magic knight...." Reply again.

" Yes, yeah...."

   Liana's problem is over, our daily activities are running as usual. The Bathory family's relationship with the father has also been revealed. The only thing that's still on my brain is one more mystery.

   Who is the real identity of Ryunosuke Osamu, the headmaster? And what exactly is his relationship with our organization?.
