"wha..."
Everyone present in the room was shocked.
"A-All the f-five affinities?!" Rozzo couldn't hold back and said aloud.
Sabastian nodded his head with a solemn expression.
"this...is this even possible..." Rozzo was shocked to his core and was in a daze.
Everyone present in the room, even Anna were not able to speak a word.
" D-Darling ! Nothing will happen to my Schwartz right?!" Sofia expressed her worry and panic.
" I...Don't know about that, Sofia..." Sabastian was no different and didn't have any words.
Siesta was also shocked as from her day to birth she never heard nor read about someone able to hold all the 5 affinites.
Sabastian gazed towards Schwartz and everyone followed his gaze and looked at Schwartz.
Schwartz was acting like he was in a daze but inwardly...
(heh...I will be able to use this as a way to train freely and become stronger to move forward with my plan.) Schwartz was quite a schemer indeed...
"father..." Schwartz slowly opened his mouth and speaked and looked into Sabastian's eyes.
"hm?" Sabastian looked at his son's eyes and allowed him to speak.
"No before that..." Schwartz cuted his next line so Sabastian thinks that their is something that Schwartz was about to speak about but stoped.
"Does anyone else know about this?" Schwartz asked as he narrowed his eyes.
"No, no one else knows about this except for those present in this room at this moment." Sabastian answered Schwartz's question without any hesitation.
" I see... I mean if their was someone else who heard or somehow came to know about this, it may lead to a coup or war with especially Elfrieden kingdom..." Schwartz said his thoughts to Sabastian.
" heh...As expected of my son." Sabastian grinned and praised Schwartz.
"heh...You flatter me." Schwartz smirked back as he answered his father's praise.
((As father as son...)) everyone thought and were bewildered that they were not worried about anything and were cracking jokes.
"any way father... What I wanted to speak to you about my thoughts." Schwartz stopped and looked at Sabastian with a serious gaze.
"what is it?" Sabastian also stopped and turned serious.
The atmosphere of the room took a sudden 180° turn.
Everyone looked at Schwartz with a serious gaze.
" I need your permission." Schwartz started speaking.
"my permission? For what?" Sabastian was confused and asked.
" I...Want to train alone and leave the Castle for a while." Schwartz spoke with a serious look and tone.
Everyone widened their eyes except for Sabastian and Rozzo.
"Schwartz! What are you talking about!" Sofia was the first one to speak against it followed by Siesta.
"Schwartz...Why do you want to do that?" Siesta asked nervously.
" it's for the better mom and Siesta...I need to learn to control my powers and become stronger and by training and traveling around the Empire I am sure I will learn how the people are feeling to better rule in the future and I am quite powerful." Schwartz reasoned his question.
" I understand that you are a D-Rank mage at the age of 7 which is quite extraordinary but even if your mana capacity is higher than average how did you survive that blast Schwartz?" Sabastian narrowed his eyes as he asked the question.
"I...Don't know father...It happened on a split moment and in panic I don't know how but I conjured a barrier." Schwartz answered awarkedly.
"what?!" Sabastian was not able to hide his shock and raised his voice a little.
"amm? Father? Did what I do was something I shouldn't?" Schwartz acted oblivious.
"No it's not like that but well... whatever.." Sabastian didn't finish his words as he glanced at Schwartz then at Rozzo who was as shocked as him.
*cough*
"Schwartz...I grant you my permission..." Sabastian broke the silence in the room and gratned Schwartz his permission.
Schwartz smiled and said...
" Thank you father."
"Darling!" Sofia was about to speak but...
"But..." Sabastian continued.
"But?" Schwartz repeated.
" I will assign you and guard and you have to keep reporting to me about your conditions every day 1-2 times and You have to present at the castle for atleast a week once a month... and By the way how long are you going to be training for?" Sabastian said the conditions and asked Schwartz about how much time is he going to be training for.
" I don't know father... It may take a month or two or a year or two years." Schwartz said without much emotions.
" S-Schwartz..." Siesta speaked stuttering.
"what is it, Siesta?" Schwartz asked gently.
"W-What about me?" She asked with puppy eyes.
"hahaha...Don't worry I am going to travel the whole Empire so I will come to the Solirifia Domain once a while and stay there and give you some company." Schwartz smiled and patted Siesta.
"you promise?" Siesta said with a voice full of innocence.
" Yup. Promise" Schwartz smiled as he said that and looked into her eyes which caused Siesta to get embarrassed and she meekly nodded.
"Schwartz..." Sofia smiled in a way which caused chills to run down to Schwartz , Sabastian and Rozzo's spines.
*gulp*
they all gulped in unison which made Jasmine smile in amusement.
Rozzo and Jasmine were familiar with Sofia's anger and didn't do anything to cause her to get angry.
"Y-Yes mother..." Schwartz Stuttered for the first time in a while.
"you will visit and stay in the castle for a week once a month or two right?" She said still smiling.
"Y-Yes I certainly will." Schwartz said as he started nodding his head repeatedly which was quite funny knowing his personality.
"You better because I will spank your butt if you don't ." She said and used such embarrassing words that even Schwartz's face was flushed due to it.
"Yes Mam!" He literally saluted his own mother.
" now give mama a biiiiig hug~" She said smiling.
"a-alright" Schwartz nodded meekly because he was embarrassed and hugged Sofia tightly and everyone present their except Siesta smiled.
" I want a hug aswell !" She demanded with puffed cheeks.
Everyone was surprised to see the shy Siesta saying such bold words and Rozzo was about to stop her when Schwartz opened his other hand and said...
"come on if you want a hug." and smiled that smile which was uncommon for a little child.
Siesta smiled happily and hugged Schwartz and Sofia and giggled.
Sofia was also happy seeing Schwartz being so considerate towards others.
