Chapter 8: The Hardworking Ron

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Big Brother, what’s wrong? What are you looking at?” Norlin asked when he saw Norton’s surprised expression.

“Nothing. Let’s go.” Norton took his gaze away and looked at Norlin as he spoke. Noreen did not doubt him. When they reached the door, Norlin said, “Let everyone come back tomorrow to pay their respects to the ancestors.”

Norlin paused and said, “Call all of them back?”

Norton said, “That’s right. Call all of them back. Our family has just been blessed with a Destiny’s Child. This is a big occasion, and we must offer sacrifices to our ancestors.”

“Alright.” Upon hearing their conversation, Romo revealed a satisfied smile. It seemed that he could earn a wave of Faith Points tomorrow.

…..

In Ron’s room, a little blue light had suddenly appeared in the dark room. It was very faint, yet it had illuminated Ron’s determined face.

This little light had come from his palm. It was a broken magic rune that looked a bit like a water droplet in shape. Yes, it was a water-based magic rune. It was the first rune that Ron had condensed himself.

It was just that when he was injured, it was completely shattered. Now, after two years of relentless hard work, he had finally restored a little. But, in the two years, he had not been able to even fully restore the first rune. This was at least ten times slower than when he was condensing runes when he was still little.

If it had been anyone else, they would have given up, but Ron did not. He firmly believed that as long as he put in the effort, he would reap the gains. Currently, this broken rune was the result of his two years of hard work.

The rune was just a little bit away from being fully restored. Once he had restored the last bit, he would become a level-1 Mage again.

‘Come on, Ron!’ said Ron, cheering himself on.

Then, an even smaller dot of blue light appeared in his other hand. This dot of light was the last bit missing from the broken rune. Once the two of them fused together, the restoration would be successful.

Two blue lights, one big and one small, came closer to each other, but the closer they got, the more unstable the rune became.

Boom!

The broken rune shattered with a bang, releasing a shockwave of level-1 magical power. Ron took the impact at close range and was sent flying. Fortunately, it was only a shockwave of level-1 magical power, and it was not very forceful. Ron was not injured, but he was still in a sorry state.

At this moment, a young girl was walking over from outside the house. She was the maid of the Nicholas family, Tina, who had been specially assigned to take care of Ron. She had been called away to help out with the delivery of the baby and had been busy the whole night. After the safe birth of the little master and after everything had been tidied up, she rushed back immediately. However, she had just returned when she heard an explosion in the room of Young Master Ron and his screams.

Tina’s heart skipped a beat. She rushed immediately into the room and saw that it was in a mess. She did not care about anything else but dashed toward Ron, who was on the floor, and helped him up. “Young Master Ron, are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

Tina checked on Ron and was relieved to find that he was only a little disheveled and not injured. However, she still said reproachfully, “Young Master, are you restoring your magic runes again? This is very dangerous.”

Ron said, “It’s just a shockwave from a level-1 magic rune. It’s very weak.”

“It’s only level-1 now. What about level-2 or even level-3 in the future?” Tina reprimanded, her eyes full of worry.

Hearing this, Ron said a little dejectedly, “I’d really like to have level-2 and level-3 now.”

Upon hearing this, Tina knew that she had brought up Ron’s sad past, so she comforted him. “Young Master Ron, don’t be anxious. There will definitely be a way to restore the runes, but you must be careful.”

“Yeah, I’ll be careful next time,” said Ron dismissively.

Tina knew that Ron would definitely continue to do whatever he wanted. This was not the first time Ron had been sent flying by a shockwave of magical power, and he had been injured several times. However, in order to recover his strength as soon as possible, Young Master Ron still insisted on restoring the magic runes. Even if it was dangerous, he did not care. Each time, Tina would be on tenterhooks, but she could not convince Young Master Ron to stop such dangerous behavior.

Sigh, the person who injured Young Master was really too despicable. It was enough to defeat Young Master. Why did he have to shatter his magic runes?

“Tina, what are you thinking?”

“Ah? No, no.” Tina regained her senses and helped Ron onto the bed. Then, she began to tidy up the mess in the room. As she did so, she said, “Young Master, Young Madam Avril has just given birth to a little master.”

“Oh? Really? That’s great, our Nicholas family clan has another lion!” said Ron happily. He was naturally happy that there was a new addition to the family. Ever since he was injured, he had hoped, more than anyone else, that the family clan would become larger and stronger.

Tina replied, “That’s what the head of the family clan said as well. And, when Little Master was born, a strange thing had happened.”

‘Strange thing? What was it?’ Ron pressed.

Tina explained, “When the little young master was born, a green beam of smoke fell from the sky. I heard from the head of the family clan that it was a blessing from the heavens, something like that. I didn’t understand what it meant, but they were all very happy. It definitely had to be a good thing. However, a black light appeared subsequently, wanting to take away the green beam of smoke. The head of the family said that there was a bad person trying to kill Little Master. However, thereafter, an arrow of light shot out from the ancestral hall and shattered the black light. After that, Little Master became fine. Everyone said that it was a blessing from the ancestors. After the bad person was beaten and fled, Little Master was then saved. I don’t know if that’s true.”

Blessing from the heavens? Black light? Light arrow?” What was all this?

After Tina had finished telling the story excitedly, Ron still did not know what had happened, but it was good that his nephew was fine.

However, is there really such a thing as a blessing from the ancestors? If there is really such a thing, why has he not been blessed??

Ron thought, a little resentful.

His thoughts had immediately attracted Romo’s attention. He looked at the lonely Ron and knew instantly what he was thinking.

“Rascal, am I not saving up money to buy a Magic Pill for you?”

…..

The night passed uneventfully. The next morning, the entire Nicholas family was busy. As all the family members had been summoned overnight for the ancestral worship ritual, they were a little more busy because it had been a last-minute decision.

Under normal circumstances, ancestral worship by the entire clan would only be held on Thanksgiving and Christmas, and also when there were major events in the family, such as succession by a new patriarch, and so on.
