( Afterwards. )

" Still no results? " Maru's father, a muscular, tall man with long brown hair and a distinguishable 'ahoge', a heterochromic person with yellow right eye and blue left eye as well, who happens to had a seemingly brown winged-shaped moustache.

[ Father's Name: Ragna Orion 'Mamoru; Kent ]

[ Status: Wealthy Commoner, Red Blood, *Classified* ]

[ Gift Powers: Unknown (He says he had one but never revealed it) ]

[ Gift Talent: Unknown ]

[ Gifter God: Unknown ]

[ God Tier: Unknown ]

…

" No…, dad… " Maru shook his head while crying.

" It takes time… " the father, Ragna, pats his son's head.

" I already expect you won't take your mother so much, even though she's a Blue Blood, she's weaker compared to me… " Ragna tells Maru that, patting his little son's shoulder while unknowingly showing his big and muscular 'inhumane' muscles.

" It seems I won the bet, my genetics are too strong, even against a Noble, Blue Blood like your mother. " Ragna smirks.

" How…, Dad? " Maru asks Ragna while seeing his father's muscular body.

" How do you become so strong without a Gift Power? " Maru asks, which made the Father go silent.

" Mother…, Mother-Sama, used to tell me that you defeated her with mere fists in public, punching straight as you passed through her Blizzard. Defeating her. 

That's why, as Mother-Sama's tournament to find a partner ends, Mother-Sama and late Grandmother-Sama had to accept you marrying Mother-Sama, for that is already promised. " Maru tells Ragna about what he heard.

" How did you do it? Mother-Sama always tells me she still wonders about that part…? " Maru asks while Ragna sighs.

" Your mother isn't the only one privileged… " Ragna tells Maru simply.

" Perhaps this will make you a bit happier…, your dad here is more powerful and privileged than your mother ever was. " Ragna tells his son.

" But still, since you already know how your mom and dad met…, I think I should tell you that I didn't join your mother's worthy-husband-searching tournament to get her, no! 

I did it because one of the prizes is around 5.000.000 Trinnies (𝕋̱). " Ragna tells his son the amount of money he gets. The currency mentioned, Trinnie, is a currency of the country they live in, Trinia, a continental-sized country placed in the center of the earth, a place made by the gods for the greatest of Mortals. The currency power for a Trinnie is equal to 100 USD.

" I sincerely go there, fighting your mother after seeing constant ads bragging about her power, guess she's not as powerful as she boasted herself to be. 

Seriously, the men who tried courting your mother must be such a pussy for even not knowing that to defeat your mother is to strike before she even uses her Blizzard, easy! Like they literally had no brains! " Ragna said it loud, he looked behind, noticing a presence behind him.

" Dad? "

" It was nothing. " Ragna said while knowing exactly the person he mentioned was leaning against the wall behind him.

"( Tch! This man, he only cares about my strength! )" Lady Fubuki tells herself, listening to what her husband said as a brief flashback of her defeat and forced marriage haunted her.

"( How does it end like this? )" she regrets, for she could only blame herself for even thinking that no man could court her in the first place, that she was unbeatable until Mr. Kent came.

Mr. Ragna Kent chuckled as he heard his wife's low-volume scoff from his position.

" Don't worry, even if you failed to attain your mother's talent, you will still have the chance to attain mine. 

For my strength is not like any other human or even the Gifted Mortals; it is pure, just like those before me. " Ragna shows his muscles, showing many nerves in front of Maru, who gulps, seeing it in fascination.

" Wow… "

" Tch! " Lady Fubuki scoffs as she knows her husband is showing off his muscles again.

" Again with those muscles, just how strong is it actually? " she scoffs while her face gets red.

" No, hold it, my thoughts, don't go to the bed part, no… " she says it while her palm covers her face in shame.

" I forgot that man's strength is not only in the hands but his whole body, a body so inhumane without any enhancements or enchantments. 

But sadly, despite his inhumane body and genetics…, the son is still frail… 

How do you deal with that? " Lady Fubuki rants, but with a slow volume, after murmuring her low voice rant, her husband begins to say something again.

" You're still frail, and building muscle takes time. " Mr Kent says, while his finger touched his wing-shaped moustache.

" If the 'gene' from me didn't appear to you sooner, perhaps I should make you do 'that', instead. " Ragna says it, which made both Maru and his eavesdropping mother confused.

" What is it? " they ask in unison as Mr. Kent plays with his moustache.

" (Sigh), Martial Arts…, that's the only way. " Mr. Kent says, while Lady Fubuki, who was leaning on the wall behind, suddenly decides to reveal parts of her head as she slowly shows herself.

" Ah… " Maru sees his mother, but Lady Fubuki shows her index finger in front of her lips, signaling the boy to be silent while glaring at her husband.

" Martial… Arts? " Maru asks as Mr. Kent looked at him, now with a cold stare.

" There's no other way…, even if you're powerless in both body and power, you need to at least cover it with something, something that would let a 'powerless' person like you stand your ground against the other 'Gifted' kids. 

Martial Arts, that's the only thing dad knows could help you become stronger, perhaps until either your mother's Gift 'Talents' and my inhumane 'Gene' appear first. " Mr. Kent says it while rotating his head slightly to see his wife staring at him from behind.

( Mr. Kent slightly curled his lip upward. )

" But dad… " Maru suddenly calls Mr. Kent.

" Where should I go to do this 'Martial Arts'? " Maru asks as Mr. Kent ignores Lady Fubuki, returning his sight to his son.

" About that… " Mr. Kent says as he takes his phone (Motorola MicroTAC GSM) from his pocket, showing it as he then looks and presses some buttons for a while to call someone.

( Mr. Kent calls and chats with the person. )

After many words uttered in the call, Mr. Kent ends it as Lady Fubuki also can't stand to approach him.

" You are nuts…, you know that? " Lady Fubuki tells Mr. Kent, while Maru, in the middle of his parents' grandstand, sees it all, confused.

" Mother-sama, Dad, Father-Sama? "

" Your ways failed, wife… " Mr. Kent tells Lady Fubuki.

" Should've gone my way from the start, then everything wouldn't be so stressful. " Mr. Kent yawns, solving the problem in his way, which made Lady Fubuki grunt and leave the man with his son. 

Little Maru sees it all, his palms joined, shaking as he wonders what will happen to him next.

"( What will happen to me, why do I have to experience all of this? 

Mother-sama, Father-sama…, I just want to grow like the other kids… )"
