My Magical System

Chapter 72

The confidence of strong

Yeman check the time on his Window Interface,

10:10 pm was shown in it.

He just finished babysitting his sister. And let her fell asleep on his lap, just like before.

Yeman smiled as he thought that he became a doting brother for some reason, but he did not dislike it.

He was the only child of his parents so it was a new experience for him to become a big bro. It felt warm inside and was a relaxing change of pace.

Very different to his old self on earth, which he only stayed inside his room for a whole day, and just at night that he went outside to buy groceries.

Eina was a kind and sweet sister, he thought that Eman was lucky to have a sister like her. But sadly, he left her so early. Anyways, he was here as his replacement.

Currently, she was sleeping beside Aunt Claire while hugging the stuffed toy he gifted her.

.....

Yeman, on the other hand, was standing on the roadside, he already got a piece of information from someone that something bad would happen tonight.

Well, he already guessed it. After all, it was on purpose that he sent the letter to the Gentlewind family, in order to provoke the person behind the assassins last night.

The road he was currently standing— was the road where the carriage had stopped last night when he was attacked by those assassins.

Really, he already guessed that the Gentlewind family would send other killers tonight. After all, it was planned by him to anger them. One of them must be the reason why Hannah felt anger at Eman.

Since he was the substitute of that guy, it’s just normal to clear his name.

...

It was written in his diary that, on that specific day, he went to visit Hannah’s family manor. Even though they were not in a relationship yet, but they have mutual feelings towards each other.

Hannah told him that her parents wanted to meet the guy she was infatuated with. To formally engage the two of them. Hence, Eman without a second thought agreed. Although he’s a little bit doubtful.

When he came to Hannah’s family manor, he also noticed another guest. It was from the branch family of Gentlewind family. Hannah explained to him that their families were in a sort of alliance.

Eman did not bother about it since it was not of his concern, to begin with. And he already thankful enough that Hannah’s family agreed to engage their daughter to him.

For someone like him who doesn’t have magic, he was able to engage a beautiful girl from the great noble family. And it was from rank VIII family. Truly, it was a dream come true for Eman.

He knew that his parents and Hannah’s parents were old friends. In fact, the four of them were in the same group when they were young. When the two mothers became pregnant at the same time, they already agreed that if ever their children having different gender, they would marry them in the future.

That’s why Hannah’s family always visited Eman’s house at that time. And the two children became closer as they grew up.

Their feelings became deeper and deeper. But in an unfortunate turn of events, one day, his parents never returned again from a mission. Eman and his sister lost their parents at that time.

Hannah and her parents never visited again and he never saw Hannah again after that. On the other hand, Eman and his sister were sought from their house.

But in a twist of fate, before the start of training in the academy, they saw each other once again and fell in love once more.

Sadly, something happened when Eman visited at Hannah’s family manor. The reason why that girl Hannah was so furious at him after that.

But unfortunately, Eman did not specify clearly if who was the person that framed him. It was written in there that after that incident, the branch family from Gentlewind family wanted him dead.

And before he lost consciousness inside Hannah’s family manor, he saw people from Gentlewind family charging on the girl which was Hannah’s cousin.

After that, his vision went black. Then he woke up beside that girl, both of them were fully naked. The girl was unconscious, but before Eman could think of what was happened, a maid yelled. After that, it was a big scandal in his life. But for some reason, the family decided to stay quiet. They did not even file a complaint to the parliament. Or killed him on the spot.

It was weird, but after that, the Gentlewind family started sending killers to kill him.

At first, he asked for protection from the Guardian Guild. But he has little money, and he figured out that he would die eventually, and his life had started to lose its meaning after Hannah started avoiding him.

But because of his sister, he decided to struggle for his life.

In order to escape from the people sent by Gentlewind family, he joined the subjugation team. He had no other choice. No money, no magic. The thing he could do in order to survive was limited. Which was to try his luck in the subjugation mission.

If they were lucky, he could get enough money to pay for another protection from the guardian guild. But really, his demise was for certain. He just doesn’t know if when would the enemy succeeded to kill him.

Unfortunately, he died at the battlefield while fighting the rat beasts.

...

About half an hour had passed, Yeman perceived five presence ahead of him. Beyond him, where the place most dark and no visible lights that could illuminate the place. Even the moonlight was covered by dark clouds. He assumed that it might be raining tonight.

The five silhouettes walking steadily step by step. Coming closer at him every passing second. Like a scene in a suspense genre movie. He could felt their slight puzzlement upon noticing him. They must be shocked that there was a person standing alone on the roadside in this suspicious place.

They stopped at 15 meters away from him. Then...

One of them flicked his fingers, which followed by a ray that like a little sun on top of his index finger. Because of this, the area was illuminated by lights.

Yeman noticed that person checking a piece of paper in his hand. Maybe he was looking at a sketch of his face.

“It’s him...” muttered by that person after checking the piece of paper in his hand. Without more talk, they continued walking towards him.

When all of them reached a certain distance at him, he noticed that each of them had the face of a killer. With a wide mocking smile on their faces.

And both exude an incredible aura. If based by rank, they were higher than his Silver-Grade Cultivator rank. They looked at him like looking on a pest. Disregarding if he was able to fight back or not. Yeman noted, that it was the confidence of the strong.

However, he thought that everything would be repeated... the same strategy would work out as long as the enemy would not figure it.
