Chapter 5: 5
"No" said rudeus calming down zenith.
Yoriichi however just shook his head while Lilia checked him to see if he had any kind of injury.
"Is there a monster? No, there's nothing around here" Paul said checking the hole.
"Hey" came out of zenkth's mouth as he picked up the book that was on the floor and a big smile formed on his face.
"Rudy, did you read this book out loud?" Zenith asked her son who was still stunned by the great destruction.
"Sorry" said rudeus softly but enough to be heard, while he thought he could be burned by a child doing that kind of magic.
Zenith from one moment to another began to celebrate shouting that he knew that his son was a true genius.
"We'll find a magic book right now" Zenith said as she took Paul's hands, behind them were lilia and yoriichi looking at the family with expressionless faces.
After that rudeus's parents started arguing about some kind of promise which yoriichi didn't care about so he just stood there doing nothing.

"You're cute" yoriichi's voice resounded in the place leaving everyone stunned.

The inhabitants of the greyrat house were gathered at the entrance door of the house, waiting for the magical tutor for the little rudeus, when he arrived he knocked on the door and was received by the family.
They did not expect that when they opened the door they would find a girl apparently about 14 or 15 years old with light blue hair like her eyes, the girl is white-skinned and very short, the girl lacked a lot of chest but a good waist if his mage uniform has anything to do with it.
Both Paul and Zenith were surprised, it wasn't the first time they had seen a person with that kind of hair, they knew she was a demon, but they recognized her as one of the peaceful demons so they calmed down.
"Hello, it's a pleasure, my name is roxy midguria" the girl spoke to them, moving her head up to see the faces of the adults.
"Hello, the pleasure is ours, thanks for accepting the job" Zenith replied with a smile.
"Can you tell me who my student will be?" Roxy asked looking at all the members of her in front of her.
"You're cute" Yoriichi, who was in the back with Lilia, approached in front of the others, facing Roxy.
"Hey?" It was the reaction of the whole family while roxy's ears turned red
"Uhhhhhhhhh!" They all screamed when they first heard the voice of the red-haired boy.
"Yoriichi, what did you just say" this time it was lilia who came to the front where yoriichi was.
The boy hadn't fallen for what his adoptive mother said so she tilted her head to the side tenderly.
"Did you just speak!" Rudeus yelled coming down from Zenith's arms.
"I'm so sorry, yoriichi doesn't usually talk much" Zenith apologized to the blushing girl.
"N-no problem, the little one is also very cute" Roxy answered calming down as much as she could.
Lilia pov.
Yoriichi had spoken, for the first time in months we heard him say a word, we thought that the little boy had a disability to speak but apparently he just didn't want to speak.
At first she didn't paralyze me but focusing on the situation we were in I approached the yoriichi.
povroxy.
A week ago I had received a job letter in which I had to instruct a person in magic, I did not have the information of who my student would be, I only had the name and address of where I had the job.
The path to the greyrat house was quiet, the monsters in this area were few and the few that appeared were not much of a problem for a saint level water mage.
Upon arrival I could see a 2-story house of a reasonable size, not too small to be lower class and not too huge to be from the nobility. I would say that they were somewhere in between in terms of classes.
Standing in front of the door of the house, I took a deep breath and knocked on the door, it was opened by the family, a muscular brown-haired man next to him, a beautiful blonde woman carrying a brown-haired child of about 3/4 years of age and behind of these a red-haired woman who was apparently his servant.
I introduced myself as usual, being the greeting reciprocated, I thought that the one who would have to teach would be the woman who was carrying the child, but I wasn't sure because of what I asked anyway.
But when saying my question, a boy who was about 5/6 years old approached the front, he was a cute boy with black hair and red tips, dark red eyes, strangely shaped earring and a llama-shaped mark on his forehead.
"You're pretty" the boy's voice resounded in my head, most of the men who had told me pretty could count it with one hand, not because it wasn't, but more than most men are just perverts who only look for the easy sex.
I blushed I didn't know why but I couldn't help it, he was a child for God's sake, but he was very cute. His alleged mother approached him, apparently the child was not one of my words so much that they were surprised to hear him speak.

"Our little rudeus is your student" Zenith told Roxy who looked at her like she was an idiot.
Sigh
"I guess they are the typical idiot parents who think that
They think her children are geniuses for being a little intelligent" Roxy whispered without knowing that the parents of said children heard her.
"You know we're here" Zenith said with a kind but brittle smile.
"I-I'm so sorry" Roxy said bowing apologetically.
"It doesn't matter" Paul said scratching his head.
"First of all, you shouldn't push Rudi, he is very intelligent and knows his talent but he is still a child" Zenith told him with a kind smile on his face.
Roxy at that moment thought that this child's learning would be slow, but she also noticed the other child who was speaking slowly with the other woman.
"Won't the other kid learn together with little rudeus?" Roxy asked seeing that they hadn't mentioned the little redhead.
"Ah, yoriichi didn't say anything about him wanting to learn" Zenith said calmly.
Well, apparently the boy doesn't like magic or he doesn't have talent for it, anyway they'll only pay me to help one person, I don't care.
"On paper you're a tutor, but think of this more as a resource for rudy, even if you're just here to answer his questions, that's enough. Oh, and we'll be fencing in the afternoon, so try not to burn him out." too much" this time it was paul who spoke, wanting his son to have some sort of focus on fencing.
After the conversations, the group followed by yoriichi and lilia went to the patio of the house to start the initial practice.
"Remember treat him like any other child okay? And please don't have too high expectations, said zenith clarifying some points.
"Yes, miss, I'll keep that in mind" Roxy replied with a neutral face.
In other words he told him to treat him like a child who knows nothing and that you are only here to educate him in magic and he knows nothing.
The girl knew that it would be frustrating but a job is that a job.

If you're reading this crap, you know that in the
original canon, if Rudeus weren't a reincarnate, his relationship with Roxy would be creepy due to the age difference, and as for his relationship with Sylphiette, Rudeus considered starting this life with a fresh beginning, which is why he lets it slide, plus he has the body of a child.
