Back within the Lionheart Dukedom, life continued in it’s normal pace, soldiers continue to patrol the streets while the roads were filled with citizens living their normal lives, within the crowd a cloaked figure continued to walk among them
‘Looks like everything’s still the same’
Looking at the street filled with all types of people walking here and there an inexplicable sense of happiness filled my mind
‘it’s good to be back home’
I couldn’t help but feel happy coming back, as such I continued to walk at a leisure pace while looking at any changes that may have taken place during my absence
As I continued to walk my sceneries continued to change, from the commoners area to the lavish area of the nobles, untill I finally arrived at a huge mansion’s guarded by several soldiers
Seeing a cloaked figure walking up to them the soldiers became vigilant, their auras rose as they prepared for any unexpected situations, as I got closer one of the soldiers spoke
“Halt!, please state your identity and your intentions at coming to the Lionheart mansion!”
Looking at the soldiers and the people nearby looking at my situation, I couldn’t help but chuckle, saying nothing I tossed a token to the guard, the guard caught the token, passing mana into it he looked at the token
The moment he did he’s expression went from surprise to then fear, fear when he looked at me, seeing that I removed the hood converging my face, as my face came to view there were gaps of astonishment
And as soon as the soldier saw my face he didn’t need anything else, with a deep bow he shouted
“Welcome home young master!!”
Hearing his shout all the other soldiers started to salute me too, then they quickly opened the door to let me in under the eyes of the astonished viewers, as soon as I entered the gates gossips started to spread
“Wait! was that the rumored 2nd child!”
“Yeah!, I had head that he was exiled from the family for not having any talnet!”
“No way, I had heard that he had died!”
“I had heard that the 2nd child had gone missing!!, who aould have thought that the young master would have been alive!!”
While my return had send out a wave of frenzy I leisurely walked towards my mothers room, whenever a maid saw me they continued to gasp
I gave each of them a smile and a wave, earning blushes from several of the younger aged maids, my handsome face and aura both was not just for show, as I was walking I saw a women running towards me, she looked the same as I remember
Blonde hair that fell to her shoulder, with green eyes and a beautiful face, even after all these years she looked like she was still in her late 20s
Even though within the origin realm your lifespan does not increase, you could still look young, if someone wanted increase their lifespan only breaking through to Imperial realms was the only way
The women who was running towards me, my mother quickly reached me and gave me a hug, unlike before when she hugged me, right now she was in my arms, with a happy smile I too wrapped my hands around her, with three of my fingers dangerously placed near her ass, though she seemed not to notice it
“I am back mother”
My words caused her to smile as she held me in a tighter hug, my words and my presence seemingly filling her with happiness and content, we kept on hugging like this for a minute before we broke up
Leaving my embrace my mother placed one of her hands on my face, touching it
“Looks like my son grew up to a handsome young man”
“Of course how could I not when I have such a beautiful mother?”
“Looks like you became quite the talker too”
My words of compliment brought a smile upon her face, though it was quickly placed with an angered expression, quickly one of my ears was being pulled
“Humph, you finally returned home, do you now how worried I was, if it wasn’t for the fact that you kept your contacts with me, I would have long since marched out with an army to bring you back”
“Ow…ow..mother I am sorry, please stop pinching me in front of these people”
‘c’mon?, what’s with all these women’s pinching my ears?’
“Do you think this is the end?, come with me it seems that I have to teach you some manners”
With that my mother pulled me towards her room and kept barging me with questions about how I was if I was hurt? or if I was hungry? and many more
I had to spend at least an hour talking with her to pacify her, it was only after she was satisfied did she give me some space
Currently we were in her study room both of us seated on a sofa, currently I was laying in my mother’s lap while she was giving me a lap pillow, I lay on my back facing forward
My mother looked at me as she stroked my head with tenderness and love, her lap was truly soft and tender, looking at her beautiful face was truly a treat
“I am happy that your back son”
“Me to, I am happy to be back home”
As I said so I closed my eye’s as deep sleep took control of me
