Chapter 102: Long Time no See, My Parents

“Gahahaha, it’s been a while, Zest! How have you been?”

“It’s been a long time, father.”

“Father-in-law, it’s been a long time.”

(Dad’s dad! Long time no see!)

One week after the uproar caused by the junky sister wedding incident, we came to my foster father’s mansion, on the Frontier Count’s domain.

We soon have to go to the imperial capital to meet with that stupid prince, and I also wanted to congratulate my foster mother for giving birth.

“Oh, young lady Beatrice……..Bea, it seems that everything is going well with you too. Take good care of that child in your belly, all right?”

“Thank you, father-in-law.”

Despite beating my shoulder with unrestrained force, my foster father was very kind towards Bea.

Discrimination! Ain’t this discrimination?

I healed my shoulder with magic, but he continued to strike it.

“First of all, come inside! We can talk after that. Gahahahaha”

I kept on receiving his attack as we entered the mansion.

Even the stone paving at my feet started to crack, but the servants were not surprised anymore.

(Dad is quite st.u.r.dy! He’s tougher than stone! Awesome!)

I caressed the honest Toto as we entered the house and walked to the reception room.

Here, a long-missed smile waited for me.

It’s been such a long time…….Reflexively, I smiled as well.

“It’s been a while, Zest. How are you? You did not get sick during this time, did you?”

She embraced me tightly.

Ah……My mother’s gentle scent……..It feels like I’ve come home.

However, my foster father started to show killing intent. Please stop!

As always, he’s deeply in love with mother Celica.

“It’s been a while, mother. Did you lose a little weight? How’s your physical condition?”

“Fufu, I’m all right. But because I don’t get enough sleep, I also have no appet.i.te……”

She said and laughed, but she looked rather unwell.

I used my healing magic on her as I helped her sit on the sofa.

“Thank you, Zest. I feel much better.”

“Mother-in-law, it’s been a long time. Afterwards, please show me the baby.”

(Dad’s mom! Long time no see. You smell good!)

“Oh my, Bea, your belly will start to show soon……I’m looking forward to it.”

With the women’s excitement, our nice tea party started.

I distanced myself from them in a casual manner as I wanted to absorb the situation.

“Zest, you will stay here for the night, right? Take your time and relax.”

“Thank you, father. I will do just that.”

Are you angry that mother hugged me a while back?

The power with which he beat my shoulder now was five times stronger than before.

“Besides, I have something to talk with you about……So please listen to me.”

My foster father informed me, his expression serious.

……………As I thought, this was not just a simple sleepover party.
