Theresa Rand extended her hand toward Alex and said with a smile, "I hope you like this new home."
Alex was about to say something when a bunch of reporters suddenly appeared on both sides and started taking pictures of him. In a few seconds, the crowd around him also rushed over.
"Welcome, our miracle child!"
"Alex Rand!"
"My flower shop is having a sale, you must come often!"
"The gift of ice and snow!"
A large number of people poured out of the square, surrounding it tightly. The miracle child that had been reported in the newspapers for a month was about to become a member of the Rand family, and many people from the upper city came to watch the excitement. Fortunately, the Silver Mane Iron Guards came out quickly to maintain order, leaving Alex a path forward, which was the direction of Theresa Rand.
There is no other way to go.
Are there any options?
Alex had no choice but to walk towards Theresa and said respectfully, "Greetings to you, great guardian who is as warm as the sun."
"No need to be so formal." Theresa always had a warm smile on her face and said, "Just call me mother."
Ok.
Aunt Vanessa was not lying. She had indeed gone to the home of the Great Guardian, the richest family in Beloberg. Alex, under the gentle smile of the other party, said to his breadwinner, "Mother."
Theresa hugged him warmly and whispered in his ear, "Child, it won't be cold here anymore."
It was indeed warm...Teresa's body temperature seemed to take away the chill that Alex brought from the snowfield, but when he opened his eyes, he found that Cocolia was looking at him with strange eyes.
Hey, are you jealous?
"Thank you." Alex took the initiative to hug his future mother, buried his head in her chest, and said, "It's my honor to be your family."
…………
Alex became a member of the most noble family in Beloberg. Just as he expected, he lived in the largest castle, ate the best, wore the best, and received the best treatment.
Of course, the biggest castle is actually the office building. To put it bluntly, you eat and sleep in the company, and never have a break. After meeting Theresa, the great guardian only spent half an hour eating and chatting with his family, and then returned to his post.
"Alex. I want you to be nice to your mother and not make her angry."
Cocolia acted like an older sister and lectured Alex, who was a few years younger than her, with a stern face: "Don't let Rand down."
"Okay, onee-sama!"
Facing Alex's sudden "energetic" response, Cocolia was stunned. She felt that her tone was a little too serious, so she softened it and said, "I hope you can grow up to be a helper to your mother as soon as possible, instead of being like a mascot. Have a rest after dinner. The housekeeper will take you back to your room."
"Where are you going, sister?"
"Attend class."
Cocolia turned and left the restaurant, and Alex said with emotion:
Everyone is so busy, I can't cause any trouble.
So let’s go back to our room and sleep.
Chapter 5 Section IX
If the citizens of Belloberg were asked to evaluate the Great Guardians of all generations, even though each Rand had a different personality, they all had one thing in common - diligence. On the first day of arriving at Klipperburg, Alex discovered this: his new mother and sister were too busy.
As the supreme leader of Beloberg, Theresa has to deal with a lot of things every day, from the allocation of precious resources to the quarrels below, she can almost be said to do everything herself. Beloberg only has one city on the surface, but there is actually a huge space underground. The place known as the lower area is the energy core and mineral center of the entire Beloberg.
So Theresa had a lot of things to deal with, especially when it came to the conflicts between the upper and lower classes, and she had to do everything herself. She was so busy that she didn't even have time to eat.
Kokolia was also very busy. In addition to the standard courses in the military academy, she also had to work. At dinner, Alex, who had overslept, was a few minutes late and saw that Kokolia had already finished her meal and left. After asking, he found out that she had to go to the garrison for patrol.
Alex ate his dinner slowly, feeling the hard work of his family members.
"Master Alex." Peña, the housekeeper who was in charge of taking care of Alex's daily life, said, "Lady Theresa has only arranged one course for you considering that you have just recovered. Tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, a teacher will come to give you the course "History of Belloberg". Please get up before then..."
"Sister Peña." Alex said seriously while holding a fork, "I think eight o'clock is a bit too early. At that time, I should still be traveling in the sea of stars, thinking about philosophy and ideals."
Peña was stunned for a moment, then realized that she was just dreaming and sleeping in. She coughed lightly and said, "Miss Cocolia gets up at six o'clock every day to wash and prepare for the daily class."
Alex said seriously, "That's because she's not as smart as me. The early bird catches the worm and can reach the same height as me."
He already knew what the paper he had done was about, the test paper for the successor. Without looking at the history paper, Cocolia might not get as high a score as himself in other subjects.
Don't underestimate those who have lived several lives and have been reincarnated several times.
"If I work harder and get up earlier, what do you think will happen?"
Peña thought for a moment and replied, "You will become smarter and warm more people for Beloberg."
"No, no, no, my brilliance will hit those geniuses and make them lose their fighting spirit." Alex shook his fork and said, "In order to allow more people to grow up safely, I think I should stop working hard."
Nothing wrong, no, there is a big problem. Peña always felt that this young master had a big problem. He said, "Mr. Chuck is a famous history professor. It was at the request of Lady Theresa that he squeezed out time from 8 to 9 o'clock to teach you. Please don't let Lady Theresa down."
"I don't think I should feel comfortable enjoying the privilege of having a famous history professor as my private tutor." Alex retorted: "Mr. Chuck's knowledge should be spread to more children. It is a waste of precious educational resources to spare time to teach me."
Nothing wrong, this time there really is nothing wrong. Peña didn't know how to refute the other party, and only heard Alex say: "Give me the history book. If my test score is lower than Cocolia's in a month, I will go to class honestly. Please tell my mother, she is busy with things, and she doesn't need to worry about my studies."
"I will report this to Lady Theresa."
"So, where's the shower?"
"Do you need a bath now?"
"Yes, I'll take a shower and go to bed."
"But it's only seven o'clock." Peña looked at the time. It was too early. If you go to bed so early, you won't wake up until eight o'clock in the evening?
"I just recovered."
Perfect excuse. Peña could only arrange a bath and send Alex back to his room, where he fell asleep peacefully on the soft feather bed.
"Trust me...accept me...there is no future."
"The creatures from the cold storm will devour everything in Beloberg, except me..."
"It can bring a brand new beginning..."
Not long after he fell asleep, Alex felt a voice in his head. He yawned, turned over, buried his head in the soft pillow, and murmured, "It's so annoying. What does it have to do with me? I want to sleep."
The annoying murmurs disappeared, and Alex fell into a comfortable dream.
He was not lying. Every time he fell asleep, he would travel among the stars and talk about philosophy and ideals with others.
Very pleasant.
"You came."
On the edge of half-sleep and half-wakefulness, Alex felt that someone in the dark universe greeted him. He turned around and found that it was a familiar hazy blue shadow, who greeted him: "Oh, it's the original one. Long time no see. What do you want to talk about today?"
Every day in his dreams, he would see different beings in the vast universe, and the first one was the "blue fat man"-like phantom in front of him. He could feel that everyone he saw in his dreams was like him, with big black handsome eyes... Oh no, they were believers of the great Void Star God IX.
When he first met the blue fat man in his dream, he didn't communicate much, just said that if there is a chance, he would chat with more people he knows, and gradually he chatted with several people. Some people would talk about ideals, some would talk about the nature of the universe, and the topics were very profound, but Alex would also brag and talk to everyone happily.
"Call me Zero. Have you heard of Agency IX?"
"Have not heard."
"Then we can talk."
"Okay."
The next day, what pulled Alex out of his dream was not the sun blocked by the curtains, nor the devoted butler Peña, but the sound of "Hahaha" outside the window.
He opened his eyes somewhat dissatisfied, sat up, and looked at the shadow of IX on his hand. Not long after, the handwriting was dissolved by the sunlight. He seemed to have joined a very remarkable organization in his dream - the IXth Agency. A secret organization that spread throughout the universe, but no one had ever found any trace of it.
People's understanding of the IX Organization is that there is a dark web that spreads across the universe, and occasionally some mysterious objects emerge from it.
Very mysterious and cool.
"what!"
There was a sound outside the window again, and this time the cold wind made the window creak. Alex opened the window helplessly, leaned on the windowsill and shouted in distress: "Who is making such a fuss so early in the morning? Can't I sleep well? Uh, good morning, big sister."
Alex knew that women were like cats that needed to be stroked, so he was quite sweet to his new mother and sister. He didn't need to cause trouble for his quick words. So when he saw Cocolia sparring with a Silver Mane Iron Guard instructor in the open space outside the window, he immediately greeted them enthusiastically.
Cocolia, who had tied her hair up, glanced at her new brother, put away the ice spear in her hand, and said, "You just got up?"
When Cocolia came home yesterday for her daily report with Theresa, Alex was already rolling around in bed.
"Ha, yeah yeah."
"As the only man in the Rand family, you must have good martial arts skills." Cocolia looked at Alex's somewhat casual attitude and said, "It's just right that you're awake. Come here, I'll teach you a few moves."
"No more."
When Cocolia saw Alex retract his head, she suddenly had an idea and said, "If you can hit me once, I can ask Mother to cancel all your morning exercises in the future."
Alex climbed out of the window in her pajamas and said, "You said so, onee-sama."
"Ah, that's what I said."
Although she knew that Alex's power was not comparable to that of an ordinary child, and that he had become a destiny walker who could control elemental power, Cocolia was also confident that she had also embarked on her destiny and became a brave and skilled warrior.
She didn't think she would be hit by a little boy who hadn't even grown yet.
"Instructor, please give Alex some protective gear."
Behind Klipper Castle is a small garden, and this open space is where the successive guardians passed down their martial arts. For several years in a row, Cocolia had gotten up early to practice with the instructors from the Silver Mane Guards regardless of wind or rain. Looking at Alex walking towards her, Cocolia was full of confidence.
Of course, she didn't want to kill her brother. She already knew that he was smarter than her, but from the first day she met him, he seemed a little sloppy and too lazy. Today, her mother said that Alex would be her brother from now on, and she would naturally follow her instructions and treat him like her own brother. Therefore, she hoped that Alex could grow up as soon as possible and grow to the point where he could share the pressure for Teresa's mother.
Since you have this talent, you should take it seriously, instead of going to bed at 7 and getting up at 7, wasting your precious time in bed.
Cocolia decided to give her brother a warning today and teach him a lesson!
Cocolia, who was wearing a military school uniform, took a cloth-wrapped spear from the weapon rack beside her. Since it was a sparring match, there was no need to use the power of destiny and elements. Alex only wore a helmet - compared to his head, the helmet was a little too big, and it was also a little funny. He said, "Let's start, sister."
"You launch the attack."
Seeing that Alex didn't pick up any weapons, Cocolia guessed that he had never learned how to use weapons, so he chose to fight with his bare hands, which he was more proficient in?
"Then I'm here."
Crouching down, what is he doing? Picking up a stone? Is he preparing to...
call out--
thump—
Cocolia suddenly felt a burning sensation on her thighs. She looked down and saw that her pants had been cut open, exposing her fair thighs directly to the air. She looked back in a daze, and saw a small groove on the solid wall of Klippel Castle.
"Sorry, sorry. I'll throw it more gently next time."
Alex picked up a handful of rocks from the ground, looked at Cocolia in the distance, and said with a smile: "Just hit it once."
Cocolia shouted in despair: "Despicable!"
We agreed to do morning exercise, but you're going to play stone throwing with me?! Cocolia didn't wait for Alex to make a move, and rushed forward with the wooden spear in hand.
"The children are really energetic." Upstairs, Theresa leaned against the window, sipping tea and glancing at the battle in the small garden, she smiled and said, "It's great to be young."
Chapter 6 It is natural for a younger brother to beat his sister
"Oh? Is this the new little Rand?"
Gerard Landau, the current Silver Mane Iron Guard officer, who was reporting to Theresa in her office, and wearing silver armor, walked to the window and said, "He is so agile that Miss Cocolia can't touch him at all."
"After all, he is a child who has experienced 'death'." Theresa looked down and took a sip of black tea before continuing, "From Mr. Landau's perspective, how talented is he in martial arts?"
In the center of the venue, Cocolia was constantly chasing Alex. After closing the distance, she used the distance advantage of her spear to stop Alex from throwing stones. But no matter how she attacked, Cocolia's wooden spear could not touch Alex. Instead, Alex dodged the attacks with ease.
Very fast, and quick to react. Gerard Landau touched his beard with a leather glove and said, "Miss Cocolia is a leader among her peers. My instructors also praised her highly. She made the right choice by using the length of her weapon to block Alex's actions. However..."
He looked at the thin figure in the field and said, "Alex must have received basic combat training since he was a child. Every step he takes is extremely steady, and every dodge he makes is efficient. He seems to be suppressed by Cocolia, but in fact he can fight back at any time. Congratulations, Lady Theresa. The Silver Mane Guard will have an excellent general in the future."
There was no verbal shouting or trash talk. Cocolia silently launched attacks again and again, but she was actually in a bad mood at the moment. Alex in front of her had not been hit yet. She had forgotten that her original idea was to let Alex attack. She only had one thought now, which was to knock Alex to the ground and tell him:
It is natural for a sister to beat her brother!
There is something. Alex took a step to the left, letting the wooden spear and his arm pass close to each other. When Kokolia changed her attack from stabbing to sweeping, he squatted down in advance to avoid the attack, and took the wooden spear to control the opponent's weapon.
Her basic skills were very solid, and they were not just empty talk. She must have really fought in battle and killed the enemy. Feeling the huge force coming from the wooden spear, he chose to push forward and let go, causing Cocolia to take a few steps back with an unstable center of gravity.
If I had not been blessed by the Star God, I would probably have collapsed by now based solely on the experiences of my previous lives.
But, although he is younger, Alex is very sure that his physical fitness is better than Cocolia's, and he will not be at a disadvantage in terms of speed or simple wrestling.
Already won.
