Rolling on the bad, I thought about the world I was in.
Just like a middle-aged fantast world, this world had kingdoms, empires, neutral domains, and most famous <Forbidden Domains>.
‘I am a normal citizen of the most powerful country on this continent.’
[The Great Roxana Empire]
The center of the human domain and one of the most powerful empires of the western continent.
‘And a place that houses 2 of the 9 <Forbidden Domains>.’
The empire was able to grow so strong was also because of the geographic advantage it has. A natural terrain advantage if you see it from the perspective of the enemy.
The empire is situated in the center of a closed space surrounded by a huge magic forest and a mountain range with a great labyrinth.
‘Well, it’s not like I will be going into those horrible places.’
The eastern continent also has other famous places.
Holy kingdom of rahum and Principality of lakmer are places that are also famous and has their own forces. But, most importantly, they also have good relations with this empire.’
Holy Empire is famous for its forces that control <Divine Power>. Not only do they have multiple strong religious people they are also one of the most famous suppliers of [potions] on the western continent.
The Principality is a neutral nation with famous trade centers, tourist spots, and sea centers.
Being a fantasy world, this world has many different races.
(Elves), (Orcs), (Dwarves), (Beast people), and many more.
‘I’m at a border town of the empire.
It is between a small kingdom of the east and the main city connecting to the imperial capital.’ ｎｏｖ𝚕．𝚌ｏｍ
I only have a limited amount of information.
‘Well, what can a baby do? A little baby who isn’t even two years old… but this world is filled with many miraculous things.
Things that one could only read in books and see in games. And my mom and dad tell me a new story every day.
Whatever it is, it’s very enlightening.
Knowing about those past [Saints] and [Heroes] who were unbelievably powerful, my heart beats wildly.’
Those who had great powers and chose the path to save humanity from the demonic forces were the ones who left behind myths.
The great wars fought between good and evil and the presence of the absolute beings in those stories are amazing. the swords used with <Aura> which represent one’s true self and (High magic) used with <Mana>.
An unknown world and the mysteries behind many things.
Gaining knowledge is a great hobby honed by many great individuals.
‘And one of those great individuals is the Emperor of this great empire.’
The previous emperor wasn’t outstanding in anything particular but he was the best judge anyone had ever seen.
His judgment skills which not only saw law but also the core of the crime made outstanding judgments. He knew that his young son will make a better emperor than his older one.
There was a constant power struggle between them but he always supported the current emperor despite the superiority of his older son.
At the end of this bloody fight, the current emperor won by doing nothing at all.
He just waited and waited until his arrogant older brother dug his own grave.
‘The emperor, who has a sharp mind and foresight became a war hero who was able to flourish the empire even further,’ I thought as I rolled around in the bed.
‘Admiring the past is a great thing but I like the present and my current self the most.’
The night was getting dark and my eyes were slowly getting heavy. In the middle of the night, with a quiet atmosphere, the sound of the night was heart calming.

“Eon! Don’t go there!”
A Worried voice rang in the quiet hall. The man was walking behind a crawling baby.
“Eon…Eon?”
He was tired of calling his son but, he stopped in the middle of it. He saw his son by the bookshelf.
He thought he knew what his son was trying to do.
‘No way!? really?’
Thinking that he was right he quickly ran towards the stairs.
Entering a room he shouted in a desperate voice.
“Honey! Come downstairs, quickly! Eon is trying to walk for the first time!”
His wife, who was reading something sitting on the table suddenly stood up.
Not believing her ears she started running without thinking.
Both of them entered the room their son was in. He was trying to stand up with the support of the shelf.
Standing up with much difficulty he tried to take his first steps, but he fall on his first try.
The mother watching this scene felt her heart ache a bit but, she recovered quickly. With a determined look, she looked at her son and shouted with a cheering tone.
“Eon! It’s ok! Let’s try again…”
But before she could finish her words, Axion started to try again.
He stood up and took his first step. This time he didn’t fall as he continued to walk forward.
One step. Two steps. He walked his third step and was about to fall. But, his mother caught him midway.
“Wow, Eon~! That was awesome. My baby is the best!”
Dad said with a tearful smile on his face. he looked proud and happy, as well as amazed for some reason.
“Eon did a very great job. My baby didn’t give up… or cry. I’m so proud of you~.”
She said with a proud smile but, there were some teardrops visible if one sees closely.
I, on the other hand, was a little amused.
‘ I didn’t think it was possible but I tried to walk for the first time. And, after trying for the first time, I’m certain that I can walk for at least 9 to 12 steps without falling. I just didn’t do it now because I wanted to just test it out, but it looks like everything will be ok as long as I don’t over-exert myself.’
This type of growth was not natural as I was still only one year old. My only skill is more effective than I thought. I didn’t fully expect it but, my mom and dad were happier than I thought them to be.
‘I am actually very lucky to have them as my parents. What would have I done if there were some other people?
Well… thinking it isn’t even worth it. They are all I would ever need.’
I also looked at them with loving eyes. Hugging my mom who had just lifted me up, I closed my eyes.
‘I wish everything stays this way… forever.’
This was a genuine thought from the bottom of my heart. Not everyone gets this much love and, I am very fortunate to have that.
“He is really special to not even cry or get discouraged even after falling. He also likes books and even looks at them as if really reading.
Honey? Do you think our Eon is so genius that he can actually already read?”
My dad asked as he took me from my mom.
“I would be happy if that were true. But, do you even think this little one with gold-like hair and those big eyes even knows what we are talking about?”
She asked with a smile. It looked like she was thinking about something else but it wasn’t that important to her than this conversation.
“Ok, I should go to work. See you later. Bye, Bye Eon~!”
She gave both of us a kiss and left for upstairs. I glanced at dad who was a bit surprised as he was caught off guard.
Holding me in his hands, we both entered the kitchen.
“Eon~. Let’s make something special today.”
Taking out a knife from the drawer he took out a large piece of meat. Preparing some other ingredients, he stood beside them and looked at me.
“Now Eon, would you like to see some magic~?”
He asked with a confident smile on his face. But on his sudden question, my eyes lit up.
“Yeeeeee”
I was saying yes and I thought that understood what I was saying.
Looking at my sparkling eyes, a wide smile appeared on his face.
Smiling, he opened his palm, and in a second a small bright fire appeared on it.
“Wuuuuuu~.”
I said with shining eyes. This was my first time seeing (Fire Magic) as he never used any unnecessary spells while at home. The reason for it being…
“Honey~, can you make me something to drink…?”
I stopped thinking mid-sentence as I heard the footsteps from the other side.
At that moment, I knew that something was going to happen.
Mom, entering the room, blankly stared at dad who was still holding the fireball in his hand.
Dad, too, looked at her with a blank and pale face.
The smile on my mother’s face deepened and she asked with a calm voice.
“Honey~. What do you think you are doing~?”
A cold shiver ran down my dad’s spine as he directly bent 90 degrees and loudly said.
“I…I am sorry! I was careless…”
Mom had strictly forbidden dad to not use dangerous magic when I am around.
Whenever that happens mom just… calmly talks to him… calmly.
‘Well, I pity you dad but, thank you to show that spell. It was cool~.’
I waved at him with pitying eyes as they left me in the library, with some different books and went to their own work.
