Cale relished the opportunity to slack off in the presence of his sibling and the kids. He took out the notebook in which he had written the events of The Birth of a Hero. It is six years later than planned, but he hoped that acting now would pay off.

"So we are going swimming?" Deruth asked, his brow furrowed, "Why in the Ubarr waters? Oh goodness lord, are you trying to do some extreme swimming activity with the whirlpools?!"

Deruth adores himself as much as he adores his son. When Cale asked him to go swimming, he gladly agreed because it would be a nice change for the family. He had several locations in mind, but why did his good pumpkin pick the most dangerous waters in the kingdom? He has no idea what kind of trouble this could put them in, but his great son is smiling slyly at him..

"There are places with good swimming here," Violan said, looking at the calmer part of the water. Going into detail is risky, but the location was also enjoyable..

"We will be swimming there, Hyung? I am excited!" Basen exclaimed happily."

Deruth simply pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration, trying to keep it contained for the sake of his sanity. Cale continues to do the strangest things as he grows older! He even has that nasty peculiar taste that no one can explain!

Cale leans in and smiles at him. ahhh. I have turned into a simp for this son of mine. You are such a disgrace, Deruth; your forefathers are laughing at you.

He can't refuse him if he's like this.

"Rather than a tourist attraction... I would prefer this territory as a Naval Base," Deruth said, his hand on his mouth as if he was thinking. "Because of its strategic location, it is difficult to invade, and it is advantageous to keep the forces in this crescent-like formation."

"They have been developing the Ubarr territory as a tourist attraction, but because of the whirlpools, no tourists - except for adventurers - would like to swim here," Violan says.

Cale turned to face his father and mother. He simply recalls something from the novel and his parents drop it for him. This is the most promising location for a naval base. This location will be ideal for him once he obtains that ancient power.

"Why not suggest it to the Viscounty?" Cale inquired, "rather than wasting funds on a short-term attraction, a naval base sounds good; we can also invest in it and use it to protect the Northeast. Also, Amirel and Gilbert are studying military administration in the hopes of getting into the brigades as personnel... why not have them lead the naval base... Madam Ubarr would listen to it."

"Oh, that would be beneficial for the County too. I also want to own a golden ship." Deruth smiled widely at that.

"Building ships would have to wait for a while... passing this one as a naval base would be our priority."

Violan simply observed the father and son conducting business in the carriage.

"Did you two know what a vacation or outing is?" she inquired.

"Yes, it is flipping places around," the father-son responded.

"Everything is about flipping places for you two... Why did I even ask?" Violan sighed exasperatedly. When did the term "vacation" become synonymous with "turning places?" She is already wondering why she married this busy jerk of a husband who fathered a terrifyingly adorable redhead pumpkin. She could not figure out what these two were thinking, but it was definitely worth a shot and a threat to her life.

She can see herself cleaning up these two scumbags' mess.

Lily in her arms just laughed, while Basen listened intently to his father and brother. It appears that she will be witnessing her Basen learn how to flip places.
