Chapter 3 - Triplet Brothers

8:10 AM

Light walks behind the butler towards his father's office.

*Knock knock

"Come in," a man's voice asks him to come inside the office.

Light opens the door and moves into the office.

There he sees his two brothers standing in front of their father's desk.

Their father is sitting on the chair behind the table.

All of them are staring at him with emotionless eyes.

He observes his two brothers as he moves to stand beside them.

Corey looks the same as Light except for his bluish black hair like his mother and a damn lot cuter because of something called 'more mana means more body purification' which made his face as clean as possible making him look like a new doll bought from the market.

Chase is...well, your damn hot neighbourhood playboy cause 'more aura means more body recombination' which made his face more manly than what an eight-year-old's face should be.

"Corey, Chase and Light. Instructors of Aura Arts and Magic Arts will be coming today. They will be teaching you for the next four years. You may be geniuses but it doesn't mean you don't need to work hard. In the future, you will meet people who will be more talented than you, so don't ever get arrogant. Be more absorbent. Respect the instructors. Don't be lazy and work hard," says Stephan as he observes the garden through the window. He pauses a bit before asking

"Do you have any questions?"

"No father," answers all three in unison and leave the room.

He chuckles at their answer as he watches them leave.

...

*knock knock

"Come in"

The head butler of the Eros family, Albert comes in, "what are you going to do about young master Light, master?" He asks with a serious face.

"He is weak ,so he will need protection. His observation skill is one thing but he is below average in everything else. Honestly, I don't know what to do with that kid. His hard work isn't bearing any fruits either. Let's wait till he grows up to 12. He might surprise us...probably," says Stephan as he sighs.

'It's a pity,' mutters Stephan as he thinks about Light.

'If only he had talent in anything reasonable, things would have been so less stressful.' He thinks as he massages his forehead.

"Then I should continue observing them," adds Albert as he is leaving.

"Master Chase and Corey's talents should be enough to compensate for the lack of master Light's talent. I don't think there would be many problems in the future. If worse comes to worst, we can use Master Light to get any political advantage," adds Albert as he leaves the room

An icy smile forms on Stephan's face as he hears Albert's words.

...

OUTSIDE THE OFFICE

"Let's prepare a warm welcome for the instructors," says Corey excitedly

"No, I'll review about Aura Arts. There is still a lot I don't understand," says Chase in a worried tone.

"Didn't father ask us to be nice to instructors, we have to be more welcoming so they feel better at home," says Corey as he argues back.

"But if we looked like country bumpkins then our first impression wouldn't be good," says Chase with a helpless expression.

"Idiots," joins Light.

".."

".."

"How much can you prepare in so little time and wouldn't father had already taken care of such things and studying now won't make any difference plus father asked us to learn more rather than show off so we should be sincere and let the instructors help us improve."

".."

".."

"What?" Light asks as he looks at his brothers who fell silent.

"Nothing"

"Nothing"

"I have something to do," Chase starts leaving hurriedly

"Me too", Corey follows behind.

A few seconds later.

"Awkward", says Light while looking at the two who are leaving.

A few hours later...

A fancy Caravan driven by four horses is parked outside the Eros mansion.

Two people are talking with Stephen in his office.

The triplets walk into the office.

"Thank you for coming this far for us", Stephan is thanking them with a smile on his face.

"It's fine, it is the responsibility of us instructors to guide the young talented buds to grow into a big tree that provides shade to everyone", says one of the instructors.

The triplets enter the office

"Corey Eros greets the Instructors"

"Chase Eros greets the Instructors"

"Light Eros greets the Instructors"

The instructors look at the children.

One of them, who is wearing a blue robe gets closer to Corey.

"I am Samantha, people call me the Blue Mage. You are Corey, right? I'll be your instructor for the next four years", says Samantha with her eyes glistening. She even grabbed Corey's shoulder and almost hugged him but Corey who is intimidated by her stops her from doing so.

'Interesting,' Light thinks as he observes Samantha.

Samantha is beautiful. She has a good proportional body and looks roughly around 21 years in age. She has a white face with black hair that is tied into a ponytail down to her waist.

She also has that dangerous vibe of *don't get close to me without my permission* so *difficult to approach* type of person.

The other one who is wearing a red robe observes Chase, then,

"I am Theoder, alias The Bullfighter. Chase, you are mine from now on", said Theoder while looking at Chase like he found his new toy.

'I should stay away from him,' Light thinks as he watches Theoder.

Theoder is Muscular.... a very very muscular kinda guy...but gives off a cool and approachable vibe. His face is okayish with a dark complexion.

They are all getting friendly among themselves so Light approaches them,

"Um...what about me?", He says already expecting to be ignored but still asked anyway

"Huh?" Theoder.

"Huh?" Samantha.

"Huh?" Light looks dumbfounded at their reaction.
