Chapter 225 – 225.Micah’s Liberation (1)
***
Atsubal kept insisting that there was no need to come, but he couldn’t overcome my argument that he had to say hello at least once in succession.
From the beginning.
[Stubbornness went through.]
As he spoke with determination in the end, Atsbal had no choice but to nod his head in the end, including the penetration skill.
And we moved to Tunktree to say hello to Atzbal’s parents.
“This is… My birthplace! This is the residence where my father and mother are stationed!”
Perhaps because Atsuval is a noble, he guided us to a mansion in Tunktree where nobles might live.
“First of all, let me warn you! My father and mother care too much about their children! That’s why they call me by inappropriate titles that don’t suit me at all, but never! Never! Don’t worry about that! Do you understand!”
“Okay, let’s go in now.”
“Ugh… To someone who doesn’t even know my hardships… !”
Atsbal entered the mansion first.
“I have returned! Mother! Father!”
“Welcome, master.”
As soon as we entered the mansion, the first thing to welcome us was a butler.
“Alfred! It’s been a while.”
“Yes, master. It is an honor to meet you again. Alfred is always listening to your activities.”
“Okay. Where are my mother and father!”
“He is currently in the office. Madame is chatting with the matriarch in the office as well. However…”
“This voice is amazing~!”
“Is our lovely son back~!”
The sounds of thumping and jumping, along with the joyful voices of men and women, were heard from afar.
“I heard the master’s voice, so I guess he will come this way.”
“Oh, Atsu?”
“Ugh… !”
Atsval flinched and reacted to Pamela’s question about the unfamiliar name.
And after a while.
“”Atsu~!””
Just by looking at them, there are one or two people who look like a gaming steampunk aristocrat.
A woman in a dress with long wavy hair on one side and a middle-aged man in a distinctive purple suit on the other were coming down the long stairs in the center of the living room.
“Oh! My proud son! You’re finally here!”
“I was waiting~ Our lovely Art~.”
“Ugh! Father! Mother! We have guests now! It’s polite to keep your guard up!”
Hehe, we’re still very shy about our arts.”
“Okay, if our Arts wants it, we should listen~ And since we have customers, right?”
“Ugh!”
The two said they respected Atsubal’s opinion his, but they never changed the title he hated the most.
“Hello, everyone. I’m Jessica Genedic, Atzval’s mother.”
“My name is Abel Zenedick, the head of the Zenedick family and the father of Atsbal. She is an honor to meet with all of you from the famous Portis Group.”
Where did the affection towards Atsubal go?
When greeting us, she looked like a polite lady and noblewoman.
I also greeted the two people.
“We are just happy to meet you. We always receive help from Atsuval, so we came here because we wanted to meet you at least once.”
“Ah! That’s right!”
“Oh my! Be polite!”
Not only I but also the other members took turns greeting us, and Abel and Jessica Genedict welcomed us.
“Thank you for coming!”
“Please rest comfortably! Of course, you are welcome to come back any time next time!”
“If it’s okay, can I find out how our art is doing at the academy?”
“Mother!”
Hehe! Our Art is so shy that he doesn’t talk about himself very much.”
Atsubal is Wow! Although she turned to us and signaled us never to nod.
“I understand.”
It’s polite to accept something like this.
“Lee Si-han! You… !”
“Alfred! Hurry up and prepare snacks and tea!”
“I understand, ma’am.”
“Please follow me.”
We followed Atsbal’s parents into the living room of her mansion.
While being served snacks and tea, we chatted with Atsbal’s parents.
The topics were mainly stories about Atsubal’s life at her academy or when she was active in the Portis group.
“Recently, Atsubal won the tournament held by the Yuhuije club.”
“Oh my! As expected, my son! He’s loved that card game since he was young! He even won! He’s so bad, Atsu~!”
“Yu-Hee-Je is not just a card game! It is a battle of the strong with advanced strategies and cool moves!”
Hehe! What about when you fight monsters?”
“Ohhohohoho! Of course you’re doing well! With Atsuval’s skills, you won’t be afraid no matter how many enemies there are.”
“Yes, yes. Thanks to Atsuval’s skills, I didn’t have to get distracted by various monsters.”
“Oh! As expected, my son! Ah~tsu! I’m so proud of you.”
“What are you doing with something like this, father? This is nothing to me!”
Even though he was embarrassed to be called ‘Atsu ~’, he responded positively to his parents’ praise.
“Oh my! It’s been a long time coming, so I have to show it to you! Honey.”
“Yes, I will bring it~. Please wait a moment.”
Jessica Genedict stood up and left the room.
“Hmm? What do you want to show me?”
Hehe, Atsu~ Of course it’s our treasure, right?”
“Treasure? There is nothing in particular that can be called a treasure in our family… Are you trying to show me your father’s collection of musical instruments?”
“That would be nice!” But no!”
“So… Your mother’s jewelry collection?”
“There’s even the princess of Raden here, so what’s the point of bragging about something like that? Of course, if it’s our family’s treasure.”
“I brought it~.”
“Ah, you’re here at the right time.”
Jessica Genedict brought a book.
But if you look closely, it looks like an album rather than a book.
“Wait! That’s that!”
And the moment he saw the album, Atsubal was clearly embarrassed.
“Look at this~ Our treasure. It’s Ah~tsu’s growth record~.”
“What on earth did you bring!”
“Well, it’s our family’s greatest treasure!”
“Oh, no! You can’t show that to others… !”
“Alfred!”
“I understand, master.”
The butler immediately moved behind Atsbal and detained him.
“Let go of this hand, Alfred!”
“I’m sorry, master. But it’s been a while since I’ve seen the master and wife so happy. This is touching Alfred!”
“What will happen to my shame?”
“Hey, really look over there, is it okay if I look at it?”
“Of course! Come on, everyone, look at it. First of all, when our Art~ was born!”
“Oh my, it’s baby Atsubal.”
“Your ears are cute.”
“Khaak! Don’t look! Why are you looking at that!”
“Next time~ When our Art walks for the first time!”
“Your eyes are very bright this time.”
Hehe! This is our Art’s first time playing with Yuhee!”
“From this point on, you began to like Yoo Hee-je.”
“Wow! It’s a small Atsuval!”
“This is when our Art~ wore an eyepatch just to make it up~.”
“You didn’t wear it because you hurt your eye, right?”
Haha, no, our Arts~ has a unique sense from other people. This is just fashion.”
“No! That! At the time, it was just to suppress my magic power from running away… ! It’s just no longer needed now!”
From what he said, I guess he really liked the eye patch.
“Aaaaah! Let go, Alfred!”
While Alfred was restraining Atsubal, we heard many stories from Atsubal’s parents about their memories with Atsubal, accompanied by an album.
“Uuuuu!”
Atsbal, who was released from Alfred only after hearing the whole story, was gnashing his teeth with his face blushing.
“Captain! Atsubal is threatening!”
“That’s not a threat, Myka, because you’re biting your teeth out of shame.”
“I see!”
“Ohhohohoho! Atsubaldo, who is always smiling, is said to be the cute son of the family.”
“Shut your mouth!”
“Yeonhwa, don’t tease Atsubal too much. Aren’t his parents watching too?”
“Even the shy Atsu is really cute!”
“Am-am! Whose son is this!”
“… You’re actually liking it, aren’t you?”
“Hmm, it’s a different feeling from King Luong Wei.”
We left the mansion only after eating lunch at Atsubal’s house.
“Please come again next time~.”
“We still have a lot to say about our arts!”
“I will never bring you here again!”
It was a very enjoyable visit to the Genedic family.
◈
“Geumrangguooooo!”
Whoa whoa whoa!
It’s been a week since I started working at Tunktree.
Myka worked as part of the Portis group and threw her fists at monsters.
Maika’s fist, which possesses intense power, boasted the power to blow away a golem-shaped monster in one blow.
“Okay, this is the last day for today.”
“Thank you all for your hard work today.”
All that’s left is to finish hunting monsters, make money at the guild, and then go to Cats Store and hand over the body.
On the way back, Maika, who was gently wagging her tail, pricked up her ears and shouted.
“Ah! It’s my day off!”
“Huh? What are you talking about, Myka?”
“Captain! Come on a long day off!”
“A long day off?”
Sihan didn’t understand Maika’s words for a moment.
But Adelia, who immediately understood the meaning, spoke.
“Myka, are you talking about vacation?”
“Yes! Vacation! Lots of days off!”
“Now that I think about it, it’s already that time of year. School vacation is in three days.”
“Ah, I didn’t know because I was mostly just doing requests. That’s why I recently told Sugar Cream about where to go to have fun…”
“Heh, even though it’s vacation anyway, it’s not much different from usual, right?”
“Different!”
“What’s different?”
“There are no classes at all! So! I have time!”
Flash! Myka stretched out her hands and shouted, her eyes shining brightly.
“I have more time to play with the captain!”
“”… !””
“You are so consistent.”
“Haha, I think that’s Maika’s strength.”
Except for Maika, the female members of the Portis group made her eyes shine.
