“Would Her Majesty and Her Highness not be angry with you here?”
“They’re asleep . ”
When I appeared at the chair outside the sojourn palace, I found Mommy Sylvanas already sitting at the table with her legs crossed . On the table was a huge flagon of wine . Only Mommy Sylvanas would use such a big flagon . Even Mommy Elizabeth would end up drunken if she drank that much . Perhaps Mommy Sylvanas didn’t transform her scales to cover her legs in order to get some of the cool air .
I sat down at the table . I panted as I undid the b.u.t.ton on my sleepwear . I undid them with the intention of allowing the cool air to blow on my chest . I needed to expel the heat from my two moms and the hot spring . I genuinely didn’t imagine Mommy Elizabeth would be able to accept a threesome . For the first time ever, I learnt what the legendary four-sided b.o.o.b face wash . It felt, oh, boy . I’d probably die if I went another round right away…
Mommy Sylvanas sniffed something then laughed: “The smell of intercourse . ”
“Pffft!!” Out came he wine I just put in my mouth .
Mommy Sylvanas laughed as she pat me on my back . She gently wiped the red wine at the corner of my mouth with her finger: “I thought everybody knew about it, but it seems that my a.s.sumption was wrong . Based on my knowledge of elves, elves won’t feel shy about it . I bet Vyvyan loves to take the initiative . Being as proud as she is, I’m sure she’s just as proactive in love . ”
“Mm… how do I say it…? Mommy Vyvyan is very proactive, yes; however, Mommy Elizabeth is surprisingly proactive, as well . ”
Mommy Sylvanas scanned me . Tone serious, she replied, “I don’t know about humans, but they’re living creatures at the end of the day . For that reason, I can understand her to a degree . The key is that Elizabeth is a woman who tends to feel lonely . You’re so similar to Inard; therefore, it’s possible that she’s fallen for you . If I’m feeling lonely now and want you, too, Son, would you be willing?”
“Don’t kid me now, Mommy Sylvanas . You can sense that I’m drained at the moment, can’t you? I feel as weak as when I was gang raped . It’s seriously terrifying . I can’t believe I feel so tired with just the two of them . ”
“Hehe, I was just joking . I used to stargaze on my own in the desert, but I’m now stargazing together with you . I now have you, Nier, Lucia, Irina and more . I’ve also found my family . While my dragon race is now weak, we still have a future . It was all thanks to meeting you . In the past, all I had was sand and scorched land . Now, I have everything I once wished for . Come to think of it, I’ve always wanted to say thank you . ”
I was surprised to hear those words . I said to myself, “This is out of character for her, isn’t it? It’s strange for her to be so solemn and quiet . I take that back, she’s being very, very strange . ”
Head tilted, I stated, “What are you talking about? Mommy Sylvanas, it feels so strange to hear you say that sort of stuff . ”
“That’s just rude!!! I understand manners, don’t I? Plus, I’m very grateful, and I like you very much . I don’t consider you a copy of Inard . You may bear a striking resemblance to each other, but there are differences . I have everything I currently have thanks to all of the running around you do . That’s why I’m sincerely grateful . ”
I smiled . I held my gla.s.s out to Mommy Sylvanas . She raised the huge flagon with one hand, and we clinked our cups . I opined, “I don’t mind, since you’re my mom . You may not be my biological mother, but you did give me my second life . Subsequently, I consider you my mother . I did what I did as a son does for his mother . There’s no need for you to thank me . A son should do everything for his mother . ”
“Does that include the bedroom activities?”
“Please forget that . That belongs in the realm of errors . Please do not put that within the ‘correct’ realm . ”
“Haha, Son, to be honest with you, I have something I want to ask you . You’ve always been running around for elves, humans and us dragons . As a result, you almost jeopardised your life each and every time . Now, you’re busy with this and that for the merchants’ matter . In the end, what do you get out of it? If you think about it carefully, you don’t seem to be working for yourself . ”
“No . The truth is everything that I’m doing is primarily to keep myself safe . I always pursue a variety of matters, and then find myself exposed to all sorts of peril . ”
“No, do you still not understand? Son, if you don’t want to deal with those matters, you can choose not to . You could’ve chosen to not go to the North and opted to stay by Vyvyan and Elizabeth as a child forever, yet you always take the initiative to get involved with things, which results you in running around for your life . In reality, there wouldn’t have been any repercussions even if you didn’t get involved . ”
“I would argue otherwise . They were related to me in the first place . They did happen around me if not my family, after all . That being the case, how can I just sit on the sideline and watch?”
“Wouldn’t that be more interesting? Elizabeth and Vyvyan are evidently competent enough to not require your intervention . You’re just an ordinary human; I meant half elf . When you still wrestled with your berserk mana condition, you didn’t know swordplay, and you weren’t that smart, yet you still insisted on getting involved . What exactly did you gain from those exploits? I’ve always wanted to know what you gained from those exploits . ”
I gazed up at the sky instead of answering Mommy Sylvanas . I silently considered the question posed: “From the start, the very, very start, what did I exterminate the Earth Dragons for? What did I collect Castor coins in Hilles City for? Why did I then conquer the North? Why am I here? I don’t think I need to think about it . The reason that I’ve done everything I’ve done up until now is merely because…”
I eventually answered, “Because I really like Mommy Vyvyan, Mommy Elizabeth and, of course, you, Mommy Sylvanas . There’s also Nier and Lucia . It’s because I really, really like all of you! It’s precisely because I have you all that I feel so blessed!”
Mommy Sylvanas had a dumbfounded moment . She turned her head away with a quiet laugh . In a soft voice, she responded, “I didn’t know that having a child felt so blissful…”
I gazed at the argent orb and twinkling freckles . I suddenly had an epiphany . It seemed as though I, once again, saw the golden medallion I saw when I first opened my eyes .
Yeah, what my role was over… However, I had my family and moms . I could say from the bottom of my heart that I was blessed . These moms that I received out of the blue have blessed me with so much bliss… Just let me living as their child in peace here . Let me be their son until I leave…
