But rather than receiving a reprimand from his mother, as Vandread had anticipated would happen next, he received the complete opposite response.“What happened, Vandread? Why are you blaming yourself, son?” his mother asked instead.Vandread found it unbearably difficult to look directly into the eyes of his mother, but he was forced to do so. Indeed, it was because of his actions that his father had passed away. He was the reason he would never see his father again.He should have stopped the ogre earlier, before it could have killed his father, if he'd known he was capable of such strength. But that wasn't what had happened at all; instead, he had just stood there and watched as the ogre slowly devoured his father to death.Vandread detested himself for being responsible for what had taken place. If only there was a way for him to turn back time, he would go back to that moment and do whatever it took to save his father. He would do this no matter what. But it was too late for him
“Kill me?” When Vandread found out about it from his mother, he was as shocked as if he had been hit by lightning. He had never given any thought to the possibility that someone could harbor a grudge against him that was so great that they would have to resort to murdering him.He couldn't stop asking himself what it was that he'd done wrong for them to have such a strong desire to take his life. Vandread gazed once more into the eyes of his mother, the deepest shade of brown in her eyes confirming that she was not telling any lies. Since that time, she had never once lied to either him or his father, which was one of the reasons why it was so challenging for Vandread to put what his mother told him out of his mind.The way that Vandread looked at his mother gave the impression that he was waiting for her to respond to his question. In spite of this, his mother was unable to even look him in the eyes, which was a source of immense frustration for him. Before Vandread's mother decid
The name of Dizencia's capital appeared in Vandread's ears for the very first time at this moment. His parents were not the type to share information with him about the world beyond their front door. Despite this, Vandread was continually intrigued by the prospect of gaining new knowledge.The first thing that took place was that Vandread and his mother made their way to the boat that would take them to the port where the ship was. Once they were there, the next thing that took place was that they boarded the ship. It took some time for them to get to the boat, and during that time, Vandread was completely mesmerized by the extraordinary sights that he was taking in through his eyes.His mother asked him abruptly as she found him suddenly getting his eyes to wander around the boat, "You seemed to be fascinated by the things that your eyes were seeing, son," as she found him suddenly getting his eyes to wander around the boat.Because it was impossible to stop it from happening, Vandre
The sun and the stars. One of the old stories that was passed down from generation to generation, beginning with the forefathers of the forefathers, was about the unending love that the sun had for his children. It was said that the sun had fallen in love with the moon in the past, and their relationship flourished as a result. They were blessed with a large number of children, whom they referred to as stars. Each of their children shone brightly like their father, but they are warm just like their mother. Because the sun and the moon had such a deep love for their offspring, they were willing to let their offspring use the entirety of the night sky as a playground. But just when it seemed like things were going to work out for the best for them, a terrible thing occurred, which would later turn out to be the cause of everything changing. One night, as the stars continued to have fun, their father, the sun, was the only one who could stay with them because their mother, the moon, w
Since the ship had completed loading the passengers' bags and other carry-ons into the ship, the cannons have already been fired three times. Both Vandread and his mother had already boarded the ship, and they were getting ready to set sail for the city of Dizencia, which would be their destination in a little under an hour and a half. They opted to sit along 6the sides of the ship rather than in the middle because they did not want to become entangled in the excessive crowd. In addition to this, they would have the opportunity to look out the ship's windows and see what was going on outside. The landscape that stretched out across the rivers of Dizencia appeared to be an indigo blue in color. Everyone who had a good chance of seeing it would be strongly encouraged to go swimming. But because it was so dark outside, they wouldn't be able to see it very well even if they tried. Unfortunately for Vandread, he was traveling with his mother at the time, and his attention was fully fo
There was nothing else that came to mind for Vandread other than the ship they were currently traveling on, of course. It would be the one and only thing that they could possibly light on fire so easily. The thing that puzzled him the most, however, was trying to figure out the rationale behind their plan. Vandread couldn't help but wonder who these people were and why they felt the need to commit such a heinous act as setting fire to the ship while it was still full of innocent people aboard it. Unfortunately for Vandread, he was no longer able to hear the rest of what the two gentlemen had been talking about because the room where they were having their conversation was already starting to become crowded. And as the two men were already making their way out of the tavern room, Vandread immediately wanted to follow them. However, he was immediately prevented from doing so by the presence of the same lady who had been working behind the counter earlier. “Here’s your flask. "And I
After getting separated from those two elderly people, Vandread's mother’s skepticism lingered like a shadow, as she couldn't resist the urge to delve into the sudden transformation of her son’s behavior. And so, with a mix of curiosity and concern, she ventured forth to inquire about the enigma that had become her son. “Son," his mother's voice carried through the air, laced with concern, "has there been a weight upon your thoughts, a nagging presence that has taken over your mind?” Vandread's mother inquired, her voice laced with curiosity. In that very instant, Vandread found himself deep in contemplation, his teeth relentlessly grinding against the morsel of bread that lingered within his mouth. His mother remained there, her eyes fixed on her son, searching for answers that Vandread wasn't ready to give. The room was filled with the sound of waves classing against the ship when Vandread eventually replied, "Why did you ask?". His mother's head shook gently, a smile playing at
Vandread's train of thought was momentarily distracted when a crow landed unexpectedly on the window and startled her. Just as the monster's life was coming to an end, it made a noise. A noise that seemed to be coming from crows but sounded suspiciously like a signal. He was about to use the baston to bash in the head of the cryptic bird when it suddenly took flight and ran away, allowing Vandread to spare its life.In their village, crows are considered a symbol of bad luck. Once a crow wanders into someone's home out of nowhere in their community, it is regarded as a portent of ill fortune. The likelihood of seeing a crow in Biringan was extremely low, which made Vandread worry about her predicament even more."Vandread…""Boran?"The moment Vandread looked up and saw Boran enter the hut for the second time, the flow of introspective musings that he had been having was abruptly halted. He was bleeding from the head, which had been injured. It's possible that the impact of what the
