Reincarnated Into An Imperial Prince

Chapter 12- A promise

"Do you know the consequences?" his voice somber as he stared at the child who looked straight into his eyes.

"Love is a two way thing. If not, then it would hurt many people"

"How sure are you that I don't love her?"

"Then do you?"

William looked at his son and did not know what to say. He closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair.

He thought about it. He would not be irritated anytime he saw General Ye if he did not have some feelings.

He would also not hate Helen as much as he did if she had not threatened him about her.

"Ha..." he breath out.

"You don't?" his cute head was tilted to the side.

"What do you think?"

"You do love her but there are some misunderstanding"

"You are but a child, what do you know"

Flynn's eyes became gloomy.

He walked to the desk and measured his height.

'Why had he not grown after he turned three?' he thought.

"At least am smarter than most adults."

"Right" Williams said with a smile as he picked up the child.

His brows raised and eye twitched when he carried him.

"So heavy"

"Am not Heavy. Watch" he adjusted his body and the weight on Williams considerably reduced.

"Talent?"

"What do you think?" he asked grinning from ear to ear.

William only narrowed his eyes and let out a laugh.

He kneaded the boy's cheek and seeing the scrunched up face brought joy to him.

Flynn also nodded his head with a smile in his eyes.

They had just probed each other and had gotten the gist of everything.

"Father if your shy, why don't you get drunk and try"

"Who taught you that?"

"What are books for?"

"You like answering with questions.

Don't read such books again"

"Sure" They nodded their heads at each other and smiled followed by a hearty laughter.

"Would you prefer a teacher or me?" William asked.

"You, after all it can build bonding between father and child" Flynn said

"Everyday from tomorrow, I will start training you after Court session " Williams nodded his head to show his satisfaction as he pinched his son's cheek which he couldn't get enough of.

........

Once Flynn left, Williams face changed.

It turned cold. It seems to have nothing to do with Flynn .

"I need to clear that misunderstanding but how to do it?"

"As for that woman who does not know what is good for, she is now in my territory. If she does not fulfill her end of the bargain, she is gonna get it hot" William sneered at the thought of how she was threatening him when he was injured.

He has to investigate what had happened and how the Youling Academy had been able to sneak into the battlefield, he also would not like to be used as a spear gun so he has to investigate their motive.

He already has direction on where to start.

Each kingdom apart from the Takun  Kingdom and The Wright Kingdom has the support of an Academy.

The Takun Kingdom was once an Academy but became a Kingdom after the Ruins Era.

He called in someone who was on black through out and said something which the person left to do.

After settling some matters and taking care of some documents, he remembered his promise to his son and decided to make plans.

He had finished going through everything and he was certain that his son was a genius.

He had also called for the Eunuch who stays beside the Empress to tell him everything which he did and he understood that his son loved books of all kinds, including but not only books ranging from history, geography, bibliography etc.

His son and not yet come in contact with meditation techniques and battle techniques but he was already strong.

He was happy at this thought. Looking out, he noticed it was already late and the party will start soon, so he stood up to go and prepare.

.....

After leaving the Kings study went to the Queen's palace which was bustling with activity for the preparations of the party though it has already been done but for double checking and to avoid someone using it to create problems, everything needs to be right.

Seeing him coming, Amelia who was sitting down beckoned at him with a smile that didn't seem to leave her face.

"Son, what do you think of your father?"

"Does mother need my opinion?"

"Mmm" she gave an encouraging smile while sending some maids out.

"His good, bold and a very smart strategist"

"But ,Mom should get ready for sharing"

"Mom already knows but he should at least discuss it with me first." she said sighing.

Holding her hands, Flynn patted it to reassure her.

"I may be young but I will surely grow to protect you. If any day you can't endure, I will always follow you.

If he gives the love equally and knows how and what type of women he inserts to the Harem. It won't be much of a problem as far as he doesn't go beyond or drops his responsibility."

"You..." Amelia had some tears in her eyes but it still contained a smile.

She hugged the little bun in her arms and felt grateful to be given such a child.

"Alright, let's do as you say" she replied while pinching his cheeks.

"Mom!" Flynn held his over drawn cheeks and felt that he would become chubby in the face soon enough with how they drew his cheek.

It seemed like Amelia did not hear him as she pinched his cheek again while laughing.

This time around she pinched both sides and shaked his face which elicited a pout from Flynn.

"Your Mama's boy" Amelia said while laughing while Flynn's face was all scrunched up .

Others might wonder why he still behaved like a baby when he was over forty and his position before Transmigration was of a high place so his mentality should not be of this.

He is only this wag in front of his parents especially his mom though.
