4 one year

It has been a year since I came to this world and today is a very important day for me, since I will do two incredible things, first I will start to say my first words, I could start to do it a long time ago, since I asked the system to help me understand the language of the two grandparents who take care of us, little by little I learned their language.

It is also worth mentioning that I already have some hair on my head, although it is still very thin, but something is something, I really didn't like being bald, it was very cold and I always had to wear a hat to keep me warm.

Just like in the picture Rob had shown me when we talked, my hair was a dark tone, while my eyes were silver, grandma always says that when I grow up I will be a conqueror of women and I think she is not wrong.

On Shin's side he has a western style countenance with purple hair and reddish brown eyes, unlike his tough Japanese facial structure from his previous world, I found this point strange, but I didn't mind so much, as I was still much more handsome than him.

Also, today I will take my first steps, since I started to crawl at 3 or 4 months old, that was one of the happiest moments of my life, since I was very bored being in my crib all the time, and from that moment on, I started to move around the house.

Not only that, also today some people will visit us, among them, there was the king of a Diseum Country or Tio Dis for the relatives, he is a middle aged man who has golden colored hair, wears a moustache, and has emerald green eyes.

Not only him, but also Michel, who is a general of the knightly order, although he is about to retire, since in a few more years, when the protagonist had turned 15, he was already retired according to the original novel.

So, seeing that today was going to be a year since grandfather rescued us, it was decided that this day would be our birthday, so today would be celebrated.

When we were all in the dining room, I started to fidget, letting Grandma Melinda know to let go of me:

"What's wrong little Ryo?" when she set me down, everyone stared at me, so I took advantage of the moment to show off.

So I quickly held on tightly to the side of the couch, and little by little I started to stand up, the process was slow, since it was the first time I stood up and sometimes I lost my balance, but in spite of that, I didn't give up and with a lot of willpower I finally stood up.

Everyone looked at me in amazement, since it is rare for a 1 year old child to start taking his first steps, after that, I tried to take my first step, took a breath and lifted my leg with great difficulty to be able to advance a little, while I was still holding on to the chair.

After a few minutes, I was finally able to reach Grandpa Merlin, who was holding Shin in his arms, who was also looking at me.

Finally, to finish my grand performance, I raised both hands while wobbling, as I spoke:

"Gr...Graan...Grand.... Grandpa!"

When everyone heard me, they were very happy, since they were my first words, quickly, grandpa took me in his arms as he hugged me and laughed:

"You heard, he told me grandpa hahahahahahaha!"

I could notice a trace of envy in Grandma Melinda, so to prevent her from getting angry, I again stretched my arms in her direction and with a "great effort "I called out to her:

"Gr...Gran... Grandma."

She again took me in her arms as she nodded.

"Very good little one, you seem to have a conscience" she said as a smile could be seen on her face.

At the moment when everyone was trying to get me to call them, I happened to look at Shin while smiling smugly at him, only I know that he is also a reincarnate, but in his case, he just thinks that I am a normal kid, so he must feel very humiliated to know that a little boy was able to talk and walk before him.

When Shin saw my smug look, he couldn't help but look away, since he was so embarrassed, he quickly tried to stand up, but I quickly used my incarnation power to place something slippery on the floor.

So the moment he tried to get up and walk, he slipped and ended up almost crying, but sadly he did not.

The next moment, I heard the system voice again:

[Congratulations host for completing your mission and walking before the protagonist, you get a talent for music].

[Congratulations host for completing your mission and talking before the protagonist, you get Cid Kagenō's exercise method (Shadow Garden)].

Everyone worried about little Shin as he fell, because they didn't want him to get hurt either, while encouraging him not to give up and not to rush either.

When the day was over, everyone decided to go back to their homes, while I kept walking, I did it slowly and sometimes holding on to nearby places, but I never crawled again, we humans have evolved and I refuse to crawl on the ground again, my honor as a man does not allow me to do so.

When I got to my room, I saw Shin lying there looking at me, I must say I don't hate this kid, since we have grown up for a year together, it wouldn't be a problem if they thought we were brothers or at least they always treated us like that.

But that doesn't take away from the fact that he might stay single in the future. Back on topic, seeing that he was watching me, I decided to ignore him for the time being, as I was very sleepy at the moment.

The next morning I woke up early, since I had to get an idea of how to start training, since having Cid's exercises, I didn't need to worry, since these exercises will help me to break the limits of the human body.

But first of all, I will have to get used to walking, since I still wobble in the process, I don't worry too much about how long it will take me to do it, since I already got the prizes of the missions.

Although there are few quests that appear, it's understandable, since the story hasn't started yet, besides, I wouldn't want to have so many things if I'm still not used to my powers, so I'm calm for the moment.

Quickly, I left my room and went to the kitchen, where Grandpa Merlin was preparing breakfast.

So the days passed, while I was getting used to talk and walk, I must say that 2 months later, Shin also said his first words and took his first steps, everyone was happy for this fact.

Also, Shin is still being potty trained, since he keeps wetting the bed, I must admit that I never got tired of doing this to him, since it is very funny when he gets challenged or something, but I feel that he should be grateful to me, if it wasn't for my great effort, when he grows up he wouldn't have any funny stories to tell his children.

Or at least I would have a very powerful card when arguing with him, threatening him that he was still wetting the bed at a great age. If Shin knew what I was thinking, he would surely be very angry and faint from such frustration.

Regarding the Authority between the two of us, as I was the first to walk and talk, it was unanimously decided that I would be the older brother and Shin the younger, I must say that made me very happy about that, I couldn't be a younger brother and less so when I am stronger than him.
