13 Reunion And The Mysterious Tattoo (1/2)
When Magna approached his father, he saw the twins with a light blush on their faces while his father was sporting a huge grin.
Annoyed, Magna leapt at his father as he yelled, ”Hey, old fart. What are you doing to my sisters!?!”
With those words, everyone froze in place for a couple seconds before Magna's father burst into hearty laughter. He pried Magna from his chest as he said, ”I did nothing, you brat. I was just asking how you all met.”
Magna slowly relaxed. He glance at his father and asked, ”Then, can they live with us?”
This time, Magna's father face slowly became serious as he said, ”I can allow it, considering everything they've been through. However, we are only a small family in a small village. If we take in two more mouths to feed, we won't be able to support our own family.”
A resolute light glimmered in Magna's eyes as he said, ”I'll take responsibility and work to support our family.”
Joshua, Magna's father, burst into laughter again as he patted his son's shoulder and said, ”That's my son!”

Due to Magna's mental age, he didn't find anything wrong with saying he was gonna help out his family. The girls, however, blushed as all they heard him say was 'I'll take responsibility…'
Suddenly, Joshua stopped laughing as a bitter look appeared on his face. Kneeling down to Magna's height, Joshua softly grabbed Magna's shoulders as he said, ”Magna there's one thing you need to know before we visit your mother.”
Magna felt something was wrong with how his father was talking. Fighting the sinking feeling in his gut, Magna shakily asked, ”What is it dad?”
Joshua took a deep breath before he painfully said, ”Your mother… is crippled.”
A deep chill spread through out Magna's stomach as he blankly muttered, ”…What?”
Seeing his son's reaction pained him as Joshua continued, ”She went into labor while escaping a pack of beowolves. I managed to stop the grimm from killing her but the d.a.m.ned beasts took her eyes and severed several nerves in her left arm.”
Magna's only reply was silence as he stared at the floor in a daze. Worry covered the twins and Joshua's face as his father lightly tapped Magna's shoulder as he softly asked, ”Magna… you alright?”
Suddenly, a dense flurry of malicious aura burst from Magna's body as he started hyperventilating. The world started to spin as he clutched his head and roared in pain. It was his fault. He blamed himself. If only his mother didn't try and protect him, maybe she'd still be able to see and use her left arm.
The more he thought about this, the more dense and malicious his aura became. His adopted siblings and father could only watch in shock as his aura literally began to form the outline of a huge demon fox with nine tails.
As the seconds pa.s.sed, the outline became more and more lifelike. Suddenly, it 'stared' at Magna's father and roared. The farmers around them all clutched their ears in an attempt to stop themselves from becoming deaf while Argo and Luna fainted. Joshua, however, remained strong in front of this figure as he quickly wrapped his son in a warm embrace.
With sweat trailing down his forehead, Joshua hugged his son tightly as he yelled, ”MAGNA! CALM DOWN! YOUR MOTHER IS STILL ALIVE AND WELL! THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS!”
