It was the summer season at this time. The days were longer than the nights. At around this time, a blonde-haired man was on his horse while tightly holding two children. A raven-haired 4-year-old boy and a little girl who was just about a month old. If someone looked closely, they would notice that there were some marks on the face of the man, it looked like his tears had dried after a long time. He was completely silent as he traveled eastwards through the forests and reached a village. It was a small village with a population between 200-300. The people who lived here were mostly tribal people. They had a hard time gathering money to even buy clothes from the cities. These villagers used the leather of a beast to create clothing for themselves.

His expression twitched for a few seconds as he sensed that Ryusuke wasn’t at the Training Ground. He knew that Ryusuke was most probably at the house. He starts walking towards the house with large strides. From the expression on his face, it could be seen that he wasn’t pleased that Ryusuke was ditching the training at the first chance he got. He enters the cabin. He looks towards Ryusuke and Ayumi. Ryusuke was running away from Ayumi, and Ayumi was cheerfully laughing as she chased after him. He unconsciously swallowed the words he wanted to say. He stared at his children, who were happily laughing. Ryusuke naturally noticed that Tajima had returned and momentarily stopped to greet him, “Father, you have returned. I am sorry, I remembered that Ayumi didn’t eat breakfa
