-Bang bang.

    What is that?

    It definitely started today. I think I said that I would start learning how to use my abilities from today.

    But why does it look like that?

    A huge, large being caught my eye.

    “What is that…?”

    I couldn’t even properly recognize what it was.

    -Knock knock.

    Ran.

    I wanted to run inside. No matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t seem like anything good had happened.

    That was the moment.

    -“Khaaak!!”

    What sounded like his father’s voice was heard inside.

    “Father!!!”

    That huge thing is trying to kill my father.

    It was a scream that would not make sense if it weren’t for that.

    I had to run to my father right away. Run to my father… .

    Run? Run and what? What can I do? If you ask me if I’m strong, I’m not. So what can I do if I go?

    ‘There’s nothing I can do… .’

    Can someone like me help me find my father? But… .

    Still, I’m anxious. Still, I think I have to go.

    If we leave it like this, nothing-

    “Master!!!”

    “Selection… ?”

    “Let’s go right now. We have to get away from here.”

    “Run away! Then father!”

    “Hurry up!”

    Even as I ran away, it was clearly engraved in my eyes.

    How strong is that being, how much can it destroy everything. I watched its appearance from afar, but the appearance that I saw felt like seeing a giant monster. That huge appearance felt like it would trample, crush, kill, and eat everything.

    -Shiver… .

    My body was shaking.

    Just watching it cry and break things made my body tremble as if I had turned into an aspen tree.

    “Fuck, fucking shit… !”

    It was just a giant tiger. It was just a giant tiger. It was just a giant and powerful tiger. That kind of tiger.

    What can I do with a tiger that is just like that?

    I was a tiger, too. I was a white tiger, I was the same as that. But why.

    That thing is so monstrous and I’m not it?

    “Please, give me down!”

    I wanted to save my father. Even if there was no way to do it, I wanted to save my father.

    But such a method has been pressuring me as if it doesn’t even exist.

    “That can’t be. It’s the ma’am’s order.”

    “Ugh… .”

    All I could do was watch as it walked away and tore half of the mansion apart.

    “Why don’t the knights come to help my father!?”

    “There was already one command. Do not help the lord.”

    “What?! Did your father say that himself?!”

    “Yes. No matter what happened, there was an order not to help the head of the household.”

    My head was throbbing and hurting. If my father had already given that order, didn’t that mean he had already prepared himself for the possibility of death when he did that?

    How could I possibly accept something like that? I was so dumbfounded that my father would say something like that.

    “Why did father make such a decision…!”

    I was sent back to my room, unable to understand.

    It was the next day that I saw my father.

    “… Can I see you today?”

    “Yes… . I heard that you’ve stabilized a bit… .”

    “Thank you, Nanny.”

    At my nanny’s words, I ran straight to where my father was.

    “Father… .”

    When I went there, I smelled something.

    The smell was unfamiliar to me, and it was so terrible that I couldn’t do anything.

    A terrible, pungent smell wafted through the air. I knew that the pungent smell was the smell of blood. I realized that the smell of blood filled and vibrated the inside. It was as if death was threatening me behind my father.

    “Ah, it’s Han.”

    My father took off his monocle and looked at me.

    Honestly, I was upset.

    You shouldn’t be working right now, and your father should be lying down and resting. Why on earth are you working like that right now?

    “Give it to me.”

    -Whew.

    “Ah-”

    “Jesun! You brought work to your father?!”

    “Ah- No… . I… .”

    “Father is also father. If there is no father, the family will not run?!”

    “… … Ahem.”

    For some reason, I saw a slightly happy expression on my father’s face. What is it? Why is he smiling?

    This isn’t something to laugh about right now!!

    “Why are you laughing!”

    “Ah-… . No… That’s… . Ahem. It’s nothing.”

    -Tingle.

    Not only does he not speak properly, he also works while sick… .

    “Lee… .”

    He stabs the wound that is suddenly smelling blood.

    “Keuk!”

    “Look at this! What’s going on while you’re in so much pain! Jeseon!”

    “ㅇ-Yes!”

    “Clean this up right now and give it to other people.”

    “Ah- No, that’s… .”

    “There’s a servant who does the work for you! ”

    “… Okay… .”

    So Je-seon started to go somewhere else while holding the book.

    “That, Hana.”

    “Huh?”

    “Can’t you do even a little exercise? At least do some training-”

    “Speak sense!!!!”

    “Ah- Okay… .”

    This family really had a knack for making heads turn.

    “Your Majesty. It’s time.”

    “Time? Ah.”

    “Is it time to learn the ability already? Me too-”

    “No way.”

    “… . Ahem.”

    “Nanny, I’ll go alone. You have to watch over Dad so he can’t move, right?”

    “Yes? Yes… . Okay.”

    “I’m really going!”

    Quickly close the door and leave.

    Let’s run quickly. Father, Nanny will take care of stopping you.

    “… You really look like Jinah.”

    “Do you think so too?”

    “Yes. Where did that bold personality come from? It’s not the clumsy lord.”

    “Ahem.”

    I don’t think that kid will hear that kind of talk anymore.

    -Tadadak

    The place we arrived at after running quickly was a small smokehouse that was still in ruins.

    In fact, it was a bit of a stretch to say that the space was small.

    Because here you can practice and watch too.

    That space quietly collapsed, and all that remained was a sparring area that could be seen as a training ground.

    “But why did you ask us to do it here… .”

    “That’s right, I feel most comfortable here.”

    “! Grandpa!”

    -Wow.

    “Yes, Yonsuk. How have you been?”

    -Tsdam.

    “Hehehe… .”

    I felt better when I smelled something that I hadn’t smelled in a long time. It’s been a long time since I smelled something like this.

    Actually, I thought my brother might know this smell, but now I don’t know. I don’t know what’s important about it.

    Whether my brother knew the smell or not, I thought that if I saw it later, I would know that it was my brother anyway.

    “Okay, okay. Hana. Now, take a seat.”

    “Huh? Do you want to hold me a little longer?”

    “Oh, no, you can’t do this. Do what you have decided to do and then do it.”

    A thick hand stroked my back and sat me down.

    I was led to a seat by my grandfather’s hand. As always, I couldn’t refuse my grandfather’s hand.

    Even if I’m forced to sit down, I don’t get angry. I guess it’s something I can’t help. I sit down without feeling bad.

    “Um… .”

    “You look displeased. Haha.”

    “Of course! You made me sit down! I wonder how you did it!”

    “… . Ahem. That aside, baby. Now you too will learn how to use your powers, and before that…! I will tell you what you have been wondering about. ”

    “Oh, are you telling me that now?”

    “Hmm. Of course. Before we get into the powers, since you are the head of the household, let’s talk about the basics, like where this power came from and how it is structured.”

    “Hehe… .”

    Those were the things that were somewhat interesting.

    This is an interesting story. It answers the questions I’ve been wondering about.

    “Do you know who created the world?”

    “You are the god who created this country.”

    “Yes. You know very well that God created this world, right?”

    “Yes!”

    My grandfather smiled at me and patted me on the head.

    I always feel good at times like this… .

    -Ring, ring… .

    “Yes, that god created this world, and all the stars. In the process, he created life.”

    “Life?”

    “Yes. Humans were included in life. But, was it the fault of those humans, or of something else? After 100 years, evil appeared in life.”

    “Evil?”

    “That’s right, that’s what we call ‘liquid’, that’s the main character.”

    “… … .”

    Up to this point, I had known all this. Putting aside how God created the world, the very fact that I was talking about this was actually a ridiculous story to me.

    “To such a god, evil was an unpleasant entity. The world was created for him to care for and protect. But evil appeared. So, the god established this country and… .”

    -Ss …

    Grandfather’s appearance gradually changes.

    It looked like a white tiger. Hair and claws grew from its ears and hands.

    “They sent down this kind of messenger.”

    It was the first time in my life that I witnessed a scene where I could not accept the existence of God.
