Reincarnated With The Undefeated System

Aiden glanced up at his father, he didn't even know what to say. Then Ethan repeated the question,

"Aiden, what are you doing here?".

"Umm...I just wanted to see the magical beast which I've already done". Aiden responded.

"What! You wanted to see the magical beast, that's why you left the house for this place? Do you know the kind of danger you put yourself in? What if that beast had succeeded in reaching this place and hurting some people, you would have fallen victim too". Ethan voiced out with an audible tone of voice and a bit of annoyed expression on his face.

"But nothing happened to me dad? I just wanted to see the beast, I'm sorry". Aiden uttered once again.

"You're sorry? Would you be able to say this if something had happened to you? How did you locate this place?".

"I followed people, I knew this was the place they were most likely heading to, to see the beast, so I followed them".

Ethan sighed a little, then inquired once again,

"Wasn't your mum there to stop you? Didn't she try to stop you at all?".

"She did, she kept calling my name, but I didn't respond". Aiden retorted.

Ethan sighed once again, then Aiden voiced out,

"I'm sorry dad, I just wanted to see what a magical beast looked like. I have been hearing you talk about them, you've told us lots of stories about how you battled them in the wildernesses, and I've been so curious to see at least even one,

I finally saw one today, and I saw you battling it. Got to tell you, you were so cool, dad".

The bit of annoyed expression had to vanish from Ethan's face the moment he heard Aiden's utterance. And what took over was a smile, he had to smile at that moment. Then he uttered,

"You think so? You think I was cool?".

"Yes dad, you were so cool".

The smile on Ethan's face widened. Seeing that he had made his dad smile, he had a request to ask of him.

"Dad?".

Ethan focused his gaze on Aiden and uttered, "What".

"I'm sure mum would be really angry that I ran out of the house just like that. And she'll be very annoyed once she sets eyes on me, and definitely, she'll want to scold me. Please, dad, help me so I wouldn't get scolded". Aiden made that last utterance with a puppy look on his face.

And at that moment, Ethan did nothing but laugh...he was trying to escape getting scolded 'cause he'd made him smile, Ethan had already discerned what he was doing.

******

The warriors found a way to take the beast's body out of the open space and dispose of it somewhere...it wasn't easy though, at all.

Due to the beast's attack, lots of activities that were supposed to take place wouldn't take place any more. The merchants wouldn't be able to sell today, the buyers wouldn't come, in fact, the market would be empty.

Students wouldn't be going to the academies where they get basic knowledge today, it's been canceled, they'll resume tomorrow...and some other things. Places were destroyed, people were killed, so the families of the people that were killed by the magical beast had to be consoled 'cause they lost loved ones unexpectedly.

The king played a huge role in this part, he consoled and compensated them. Though the magical beast had been killed, some people were still afraid 'cause another beast could attack. It's been long since a beast stepped foot into a community, but it suddenly happened, so what stops it from happening again?

But it wasn't all the communities in this kingdom that the beast stepped foot into, some cities were free of the beast's attack. But the king made a general announcement that no activities were to take place today.

Everyone should go home. All schools should be closed, all markets should be closed, and so on...they'll resume tomorrow. And that's what happened, everyone headed home due to the beast's attack.

It wouldn't be nice if those activities were still taking place though people have lost loved ones. It would seem like they weren't respecting the people that died and the people that lost loved ones.

Meanwhile, at the house of the Dankworth family, Ethan and Aiden had already arrived home. And Emma wanted to scold Aiden the moment she set eyes on him, but Ethan stopped her telling her the reason why he did it.

"He was so curious to see what a magical beast looked like, you know, the mindset of a young kid...most of them are always curious". He said.

And due to that, Emma didn't scold Aiden anymore 'cause she really planned on doing so. Ethan cooperated with Aiden, he listened to Aiden's request, he stopped his mum from scolding him.

He understood how the minds of young kids work. He's been hearing his dad telling them stories about how he's been battling magical beasts...definitely, he'll become curious and want to see them one day.

He asked Emma what she did after Aiden ran out of the house apart from calling his name, and this is what she said,

"After he had run out of the compound completely, I ran out of the compound as well, glanced left and right, but didn't see him. I didn't have the strength to start looking for him, so I just went into the house hoping for him to come back safely so I could scold him,

I was afraid and annoyed at the same time. I was afraid that something might happen to him and was annoyed 'cause he ran out of the house just like that without uttering a single thing. And for the fact that he chose to do it when a magical beast was right in the city".

Aiden was close to them while Emma was making that utterance, and he just glanced down without uttering a single thing. Then Ethan said to Aiden,

"You see what you caused your mum?".

Aiden didn't say anything, he just kept glancing down. After a little more talking, that topic ended. Hazel asked Aiden why he decided to run out just like that. Even if he wanted to see the magical beast, he could have at least said something instead of running out like that and causing them to worry.

..This was Aiden's response to her.

"I knew mum wouldn't have allowed me to see the magical beast, the community was in a dangerous situation at that moment, there was no way she would have allowed me to see the beast. And I've been so curious to see what a magical beast looked like".

And after that response, that topic ended for good...completely.

Ethan wanted to discuss with Aiden at this moment, like a father-to-son talk. At this point, he knew there was a lot for them to talk about. They had somehow ended the discussion about the magical beast, but it might come up somehow in the next few minutes.

Ethan glanced at Aiden, then uttered to him,

"Aiden, let's go talk outside".

The two servants were close to them, so Ethan focused his gaze on Lydia and voiced out,

"Lydia, bring out two chairs".

And at that moment, he and Aiden began sauntering out of the house. They reached outside, and in seconds, Lydia reached outside as well and dropped the two chairs. Then Ethan glanced at her and said,

"Thank you".

She bowed her head a little and strolled back into the house. Then he glanced at Aiden and stated,

"Sit".

Aiden sat on one of the chairs, then Ethan sat on the other chair sitting next to him. It's been said, a topic that they've ended might somehow be triggered again. There was silence for some seconds, then Ethan voiced out,

"You took the risk to run out of the house though you know your life could be endangered. Though there was a low possibility of that happening, it could still happen. You were curious to that extent?".

"Yes, dad. Curiousness can lead someone into doing various things. Don't tell me you don't really believe that it was curiousness that made me run out of the house wanting to see the beast?". Aiden uttered.

"I believe you, I do. It wouldn't be possible for me to be telling you guys about how I've been battling magical beasts in the forests, and you wouldn't get curious to see them one day. In addition to the fact that kids are really curious people". Ethan stated.

Aiden nodded his head. There was silence for a while, then Aiden voiced out once again,

"I am curious about something else".

Ethan glanced at him and inquired, "What is it?".

"How did those magical beasts come into existence?".
