Rebirth of the Ruined Noble

Chapter 98 Family (3)

?

In a world brimming with magic and boundless wonders, there exists a love that surpasses all understanding—a mother's love for her child. 

It is a love that knows no limits, transcending the boundaries of reason. Like a radiant beacon, it illuminates the path of a child, enveloping them with warmth and tenderness.

Within the mother's embrace, the child finds solace and protection, a sanctuary from the tempests of life. Each touch from her hands infuses the child's heart with a love that knows no bounds. A mother's love is unconditional, indifferent to the perceptions of the world. Her sole purpose is to enfold her child with the nurturing embrace of her affection.

A mother stands steadfast beside her child through every trial, serving as a guiding light in the darkest of nights. Her love imbues them with strength and self-belief. She becomes their unwavering supporter, a source of courage and unwavering faith. Through gentle words and warm smiles, she breathes life into their dreams, reminding them that they are not alone in facing the harshness of the world.

However, in Eren's previous life, he never had the chance to bask in that warmth. The embrace that turned cold before he could reach it, the yearning for a mother's love that remained unfulfilled. 

As Eren observed his mother's face, filled with concern and worry, rushing to his side and enfolding him in her bosom, his throat grew dry, and his heart constricted.

As her grip tightened around him, tears welled up in his eyes, streaming down his face. His voice was choked, his words unable to escape his lips. He remained motionless for a moment, his mind going blank before he burst into uncontrollable sobs.

It was an unfamiliar sensation for him; he couldn't even recall the last time someone embraced him with such tenderness. Overwhelmed with elation, his heart overflowed with happiness, almost too much for him to bear. With each tear that streamed down his face, all the pent-up stress and hardship he had endured found release. He buried his face in his mother's bosom, tears cascading ceaselessly.

Externally, Eren had never shown it, but deep down, he had always felt a sense of solitude—a pervasive loneliness that haunted him every day. 

The warmth he had yearned for so desperately now seemed to fill a void within him. In this moment, his mind became devoid of all other thoughts as he wept, his heart finding solace in the catharsis of tears.

No words were exchanged, but a mother understood her child without the need for them. She simply held him, offering solace and understanding, allowing him to cry. 

Hubert, Hughes, and their accompanied guest entered the room and witnessed Eren's tearful state in his mother's embrace. 

Hubert's heart ached at the sight, yet he silently stood by, watching as his son's tears soaked his wife's clothing.

He was reminded that his son was still young and seeing him sob made him think that he was too shaken by the things that had transpired at the royal museum.

However, Hubert was proud of his son. 

The movement he arrived in the royal palace till now, he had heard countless praises directed at Eren. His son has achivement which has been never heard of in the history.

He had confronted against a peak 7-star knight while still being at the stage of 3-star knight, whivh was also surprise for him since Eren was only a 2-star knight when he enetered the academy three months before.

It seemed like his son had increadible talent, even as his father he was amzed by it. Firstly it was not normal for someone to advance and the fact that he was capable of conforonting against someone of higher level and being able to hold his own against them was even more amazing.

'He has grown so much in the short time that I haven't seen him.'

Hubert thought feeling proud while he also thought that he had missed something important.

Joshua Sanders, AKA as Mr. KillJoy. A professor at the prestigious Freljord Academy, serving as the homeroom teacher for the freshmen. 

He was an infamous instructor in the freljord acadmey for being strict and such person become intrested in Eren after three months of overseeing him.

The first time Professor Joshua laid eyes on Eren was during his first class. The young boy was fast asleep in class during their very first academic session. His initial impression of Eren wasn't particularly positive, as he assumed him to be yet another arrogant noble who looked down upon the teachings of the academy. However, Professor Joshua maintained his professionalism, understanding that his role was to educate rather than judge his students. He chose to ignore Eren and focused on his duties.

Nevertheless, it didn't take long for Professor Joshua to notice something intriguing about Eren. Contrary to his initial assumptions, Eren was actually paying close attention during classes.  I think you should take a look at

Instead of behaving like a bratty noble, Eren appeared to be more disciplined. In the way he acted, the way he present himself, everything about him screemed an intelligence beyond his peers.

The professor also observed that Eren diligently engaged in his own training regimen, striving to improve himself.

It wasn't just the way he present himself in the class, Professor Joshua observed Eren outside of his classes and was amazed by the way acted. He acted in way which drew leastr amout of attention to himself.

Eren wasn't obessed with praise from the instructors like his peers nor was he intresented in others. Professor Joshua felt like he was watching a adult instead of child whenever he saw Eren.

Then, One day, as if by fate, the Sword Saint—one of the four supreme stars—arrived at the academy's infirmary with two injured children, one of whom was none other than Eren Pendragon while the other being the strongest kid among the freshmen. 

The sword saint revealed that both the kids had encountered an Exile that surpassed their capabilities, and he somehow ended up intervening to save them.

Nothing much was known, but it wasn't like anyone could ask one of the supreme star for answers so let what happened be and instead concentrated on the two kids who had broken the rules of the academy.

As a consequence of breaking the academy's rules, both of them were subject to academic punishment.

However, Professor Joshua's curiosity about Eren intensified. Under the guise of disciplinary measures, he began to closely monitor the young boy's progress. 

At first, there was nothing extraordinary, but over time, Professor Joshua began to witness a change within Eren. He became increasingly determined, displaying an unwavering resolve that captured the professor's attention. 

Though Professor Joshua didn't know the reason behind Eren's determination, he recognized a burning fire in the young boy's eyes—a fire that refused to be extinguished, even as Eren pushed himself beyond his limits.

Professor Joshua intentionally incresed the training regiment for the two, to test the limits of them both, to see if they would complain.

But far from complaining about the arduous training, Eren embraced it without hesitation. Even when faced with complaints from his peers, Eren silently followed Professor Joshua's instructions.

That was when Professor Joshua felt it, that Eren was not a common kid, he was diffrent, someone who was bound to do great things.

One morning, the professor caught a glimpse of Eren having a nightmare. The boy was drenched in sweat, murmuring his family's names in a state of fear and anxiety. It was a sight that shouldn't burden a 14-year-old child.

Initially, Professor Joshua suspected that Eren may have been facing troubles within his family, perhaps even suffering from abuse. However, when he visited Eren today, his preconceived notions were shattered. 

Eren was sobbing uncontrollably in his mother's embrace. Professor Joshua was taken aback, not because his assumptions were proven wrong, but because he witnessed Eren shedding tears.

"That kid can cry?" he wondered in astonishment.

Until that moment, the Eren he had known showed no emotions. He neither laughed nor cried, and he struggled to express himself properly. 

He appeared almost doll-like in his stoicism. Witnessing Eren's tears stirred a sense of unease within Professor Joshua. It wasn't about his family, his friends, or any discernible problem. Even after much thinking, a question lingered in the professor Joshua 's mind.

"What is it that troubles him so deeply?"
