Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 259 Goodbyes



She was almost inseparable from her but, Rein can\'t maintain her materialized form for much longer and she had to cancel summon soon after we all finished getting freshened up.

She was sad because she didn\'t get to play with the little kitten so... she just went downstairs to play with the big kitten, Taika.

Mom has changed a lot from how she was with me.

With me, she was like an overprotective mother but, after Anna, she knew how a proper mother should be.

And now, she also knew I wasn\'t the same sheltered little baby she had taken care of for those long years.

I… was now a grown boy.

Someone who was far stronger, knowledgeable, and almost like a new person.

But, she knew I was still that same boy she had fed with her own hands, and I also knew this. All of them were my family.

We were standing before the underground warp gate now, and the two families were saying byes to each other.

Rein\'s mom and my mom have become as close as my aunts.

The ladies were definitely excited, and they had even planned a big tea party, inviting her mom to our house.

Rein\'s dad was having a casual conversation with my dad and uncles, and they looked quite happy and relieved, too.

The old ones had already finished their goodbyes and even grandpa Zhen had said his byes to his students.

I had a chance to say hello to them and among them, their leader was the most talented one.

She was good and from how grandpa Zhen praised her; I knew she was one of his favorite.

Anna was happy, and she was saying her bye bye to Taika.

The big kitty was too big and non-human to go through the warp gate so she will just travel back the same way she came here.

A great familiar of (Purple) rank. A tiger, a ruler that ruled the mountains and can also become small... like normal cats.

And because of this skill of hers, mom loved this kitten even more.

She can\'t get as small as Clover but, being a normal cat, was enough to pass through human domains and other habitats of other creatures.

And she can travel through mountains as if she is flying so, she would be back in the capital in a day without much problem.

And Tuuli was with her, flaying her way to the capital, so it was all ok.

They would be alright and will reach home by tomorrow and I was sending some of Celes\'s clones with them too, just in case we get something good to see.

They will just stick to their back, without hindering them so... they won\'t even notice it.

The time here was something I would never forget, but now, we have to go; we have to go back and everyone here also had work from tomorrow.

Yesterday and today were thankfully weekends so, they can at least take a leave but, Rein\'s dad was a musician and her mom was his manager.

They both had too much work on their hands.

All the work from the last two days was most probably pending.

Mom was more than capable of taking care of the paperwork in a while, so she would be fine.

Even my first uncle... had to go back to the academy. He is a teacher there, and someone I would see on a daily basis when I would be there.

But... he was professional when he was doing his work. I knew as soon as I enter the academy, I would be a normal student, just like every other one in his eyes.

So, he had work.

My first aunt should also have some gatherings she had to attend. She was a pillar of high society, after all.

Grandpa also had a whole knight training, many squads, and reports to check.

He would be busy for the rest of the day from tomorrow.

My second uncle was also one of the best lawyers in the empire, so he also had his own work.

The remaining ones, my dad, grandmother, and Alf\'s mom... took care of the family.

And they had to check what had happened in their absence in the house so, maybe they would be the busiest.

Carla and Alf had their own training and stuff to do from tomorrow.

They had got some pretty toys from me; so they had to see just how good they would be with them.

And I could tell from the restless look they had, they just wanted to start as soon as we reach home.

Everything was going alright, I was going home... now just one problem to clear up.

"Bye bye Eon. Hope to see you soon~." Rein said in a cheerful voice and waved at me as we all gathered before the gate.

She had the same smirk as last night, and this play was quite strong against me.

My family was standing before the gate now, and it was almost starting as the devices connecting it was already ready.

And the servants that prepared this were just chuckling silently at this smile of hers.

Even Anna and Zoe were giggling behind me.

Her grandpa just looked at my difficult expression with a warm smile while her grandma was acting confused.

"What\'s up, Eon? Shouldn\'t you say your goodbyes to your \'friend\' too?"

So, they just wanted to play for the last time? Is this it? Why not. Let\'s go.

Politely bowing my head at the grandma, I asked in a respect-filled manner, "Grandmother Arina. Can I take Rein with me to my house?

She showed me her house, so it is only natural for her to come with me, right?

I promise to take good care of her so you won\'t have anything to worry about."

My words were polite, my posture perfect, and the sudden change in the air after my words was also noticeable.

The lady mages who set the artifacts and the whole warp portal blushed just from these words that almost seemed enchanting to them... well, it was enchanting.

Not that I was using anything other than some tiny bit of my Mana, but it was enough to please the grandmother.

But... damn.

I chose somewhat wrong words.

"Huhuhu. That sounded like you were asking her hand for marriage, child.

And you should ask her, not me." She laughed at the end of that line, and I shook my head with a defeated smile.

Maintaining the same smile, I looked back at everyone and then at the mages and asked, "Can you please start the gate?"

p My smile and words were enough to flutter the young ladies\' hearts, and they excitedly nodded and got to work.

This confused Rein, and she had no idea why I would tell them to start without even asking whether she wanted to come with me or not.

Like hell I would ask when I already knew the answer after she played that prank twice.

"Let\'s goooo~! Anna will show big brother the whole~ house~!" The little angel shouted and at the same time, the familiar blue light vortex appeared at the gate.

"Let\'s go everyone~! And thank you for everything, uncle! Come. Eon."

Mom bowed briefly at Rein\'s grandparents, and everyone started walking inside the vortex with a joyous expression.

Anna and Zoe were together with grandpa and grandma and Carla and Alf had run inside the light as soon as it had finished the connection.

I also walked forward and smiled at my dear Rein, who still had no idea what I was doing and she didn\'t have to know too.

I just grabbed her hand, tightly this time, and just started walking toward the gate after bowing to her parents and grandparents.

They nodded while laughing at their daughter\'s clueless expression, which was the same until I started walking toward the portal.

And she was a handful that just perfectly fit in my hands.

"Oy! Oi!! I never said I am coming, you bastard! Stop dragging me at least!"

Nah... you are best like this.

"Have a nice day everyone~!" I shouted for the last time as we reached the gate and she looked back at her family and her grandma, who was bedridden just a few days ago.

With a defeated but happy smile, she waved at them and they also waved at this hopeless child of theirs.

"Take care of her Eon~! And have fun~!" her mom shouted, and I nodded while looking back at them for the last time with a reliable smile, and... she sighed with a smile.

She really was her mom.

A worried, helpless, powerless, but caring and warm mother.

I was thankful this friend of mine found them, and I was thankful for everything that brought us together.

I came to her house even before visiting my own, and now we both are going to visit my own house for the first time.

And I knew that place would be as outstanding as this one…
