Chapter 55 - Chapter 57

Name:A New Path Author:Vallori
On God's mountain on Paradise island stood a mighty and majestic castle. It was massive in size with thousands upon thousands of rooms inside. The Lord of this Castle was a kind and powerful old man. Though, he still looked to be in his mid 40s.

Inside one of the many finely decorated bedrooms in the castle, there was a bed as large as the wall it stood against. On the bed that could easily fit 15 people, a small boy was sleeping. A few hours before, this same boy had fainted from exhaustion and shock.

He was a powerful child and the son of the most powerful mage in the world. But despite all of this, he was still a child and had a limit for how much he could take. Earlier this day he had reached his limit and he fainted because of it.

"Where am i?" Gildarts opened his eyes and looked around. He had been sleeping for a long time now and his head was one big blur.

"What happened." He sat up in his bed and looked around. The room was huge and it had a mirror just over his bed so when he looked up he saw himself. The door to the room suddenly opened up. The door were a solid 10 meters away from the bed so he saw a beautiful woman walk in.

"Young master Gildarts. I am so happy that you're awake!" The woman said with genuine happiness and concern in her voice. Though, her facial expressions were very lacklustre. Gildarts couldn't get a read on her from her face because it showed no emotions at all.

"Who are you?" He questioned the woman in the weird outfit.

"My name is Narberal Gamma. I was tasked with watching over you." She said and bowed down in an almost 90-degree angle.

"Narberal? Gamma? What a strange name." Gildarts said and tilted his head while looking her up and down. He had to admit that she was absolutely stunning. She radiated beauty, but lacked emotions.

"Thank you, Young master Gildarts!" She seemed genuinely happy about his comment and that only made Gildarts feel even weirder about this situation.

"Where am i? And who brought me here?" He decided to move past it. He had vague memories but most of it was most a blur.

"You are on Paradise Island. And currently inside the castle of Lord Dragon. Master Sebas is the one that brought you here." Narberal answered while bowing. This woman was loyal to the tee and she wouldn't move a muscle if Gildarts forbade movement.

"Paradise island? Lord Dragon?" He rested his head in his hands for a second before he snapped back up and stared at the Narberal.

"DAD? HE IS HERE? DAD IS HERE?" Gildarts said and got up and rushed towards her. But a few meters into the sprint his body lost strength and it's a balance. So he fell forwards and the woman developed an expression of absolute panic.

"YOUNG MASTER!!" She rushed forward and caught his body before he hit the floor. She held him inside her embrace and pressed him against her chest and breathed out in relief.

"Do not do something so reckless! I would not be able to sleep if you were to be harmed in front of my eyes." She said hugged Gildarts closer to her chest. The boy that was being squashed between two huge breasts was very confused about what was going on.

"Why are you calling me young master? I am not a noble." Gildarts forced himself free. This caused look of despair to appear on Narberal's face, like she had just let the greatest treasure in the world to escape her arms.

"What are you saying, Young master. Your father is an emperor so that makes you an emperors son. So yes, you are a noble." She said while forcing him back into her embrace and continued snuggle with him.

"Let me go! I can't breath!" Gildarts felt her letting go immediately and stepping away and kneeling down so her head hit the floor.

"I am sorry. I overstepped. Please punish me!" She said with a clear and determined voice.

"I-It's fine. But, dad is an emperor? Is he here?" Gildarts said with hope in his voice.

"Yes! He is waiting for you in the garden." Narberal said and Gildarts heart started beating and he started getting dizzy and he was forced to sit down.

"H-He is waiting for me... I made it?? Am i dreaming?" Gildarts pinched himself to try and see if he was still sleeping on his boat in the middle of the ocean.

"Would you like to go and see him now, Young Master?" Narberal stood up and asked while straitening out her classic black and white maid outfit.

"See him? Meet him?" Gildarts started panicking. He had been waiting for this almost all his life but now that it was happening he started to panic. He started pacing back and forth in front of Narberal.

'Calm down. Calm down, Gildarts. You can do this!' He spoke to himself for a few seconds that felt more like hours to him.

"Okay! Let's go! Take me to see my dad!" He said with a commanding and determined tone. Narberal smiled kindly and bowed.

"Of course, young master. Please follow me." She turned around and started walking, with Gildarts following behind her.
