MIRACULOUSLY ESCAPING SLACKERLIFE

LVII

[THIS IS JUST REPOST NOT AN UPDATE]

Bassen was scheduled to take his entrance exam today. Cale requested a leave of absence to care for his younger brother. He was granted permission by the headmaster for today.

"Tomato, you are skipping classes again," the ever-annoying Ernesh asked him like a sloth.

"My brother is on his way," he announced..

A Mana-powered retro car appeared as soon as he said that. Cale examined it and noticed the Henituse Emblem on it.

"Ah," he remembered explaining to his father about a mana-powered motorised vehicle. Violan must have improved the design, as it appeared heavy duty but elegant at the same time. The black laquer colour, combined with the Henituse gold, made it a hotshot car.

"Hyung!" A cute Bassen jumped out of the car and dashed towards him. Every time they see each other, his eleven-year-old brother runs to him.

He patted his head and inquired, "How are you feeling?"

"Hm! Dad said to show off the car!" his good Bassen exclaimed.

"It's good."

"Right?!"

Cale held his hand and said, "Let's look around first."

Not knowing that everyone surrounding him are all gawking at him.

The stoic and peerless Cale Henituse, whose face seemed like carved out of ice, is smiling, brightly, gently, warmly and whatever adjective there is, to his brother!

HOORAY FOR LITTLE BROTHER!

Cale waited for Bassen to finish the exam. Of course, his brother will be spending the day with him. If he can, he'll have him sleep with him tonight in the dorms.

Without further adieu, Bassen looked awfully cute in between his crocheted little dolls.

"Oh, Bassen is here."

"Hello, Your Highness!" Bassen greets Alver and the rest of the group. Some of their friends also came by since they didn't get to see Cale today.

"Hah! Now that I've seen Cale, I'll surely pass the end of term exams!" Valentino cries out. He missed out one subject and a lot of the students said that they needed a sight of Baby Cale before they took the exam.

Bassen looked at his brother and opened up some space for him to sleep. Too bad, he has to go back to the county tomorrow.

"Dang, that retro car is so cool. I didn't think it was possible."

"A lot of mage's worked hard for it to work and of course, skilled artisans."

"The count is really a business-minded person." Antonio wondered, "No wonder even His Majesty couldn't afford to get on his bad sides now."

Everyone agreed on that note and let the siblings sleep comfortably.

Cale, in the last semester of his third year, decided to return to the County with his people. He bid Ernesh farewell with a sack of sweets and a few words with Rosalyn and Valentino before departing for their respective kingdoms.

Naturally, when he returned home, he resumed the official duties that the eleven-year-old Basen had taken on while he was away for the Academy. His younger brother will be attending the Academy now that he is old enough, and he will graduate next year. FINALLY!

"Pumpkin..." Deruth exclaimed lifelessly. He is buried under paperwork now that the scheming scams they both pulled off are in full swing. Scamming saps a person's energy to the bone.
