Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 752 Then, shall we?



"I will not repeat myself!"

"No one is telling you to do so either! Just go out of here, Nolan!"

"No! She said she wanted it and I will do it! You can not stop me!"

"Three more minutes and both of you are going out with me. We have to leave. Everyone is waiting."

"Then tell your father to let me do what I want to do!"

"Eon! Please help me stop her! Taika wasn\'t serious when she said that!"

The morning of the grand auction and my parents are fighting in the kitchen. Haaa… Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

"The hell is matter with you?!"

"What is the matter with You? Why are you doing this when we should be out and going to Hiraani! It\'s a big day for you!"

"I know that! That\'s why you should step aside and Let Me Cook!"

"No! Please don\'t do this…"

He was practically begging her at this point now. I couldn\'t see this happening anymore.

"Alright you two. Let\'s go." I got behind them and started pushing the two out of the kitsch. They were acting like kids when their kids were waiting outside… I wasn\'t going to just watch them waste time like this today. Especially not today.

"Eon! Why are you pushing Me?! Push out your dad! I\'m not in the wrong here."

"No! Eon! This is better! Just drag both of us out! That\'s much better than someone getting sick!

"Yes yes."

It was happening because Taika said she would like to try something mom makes herself now that she had evolved and had a human-like sense of taste As A Joke.

She had already tasted mom\'s cooking and was poisoned so she wasn\'t dumb enough to try something like that stuff again. It was obviously a joke… but mom took it seriously.

"Fuck you, you damn bastard! You ungrateful child and you piece of trash husband! I will see you both when this is over!"

"Yes, please."

Both of us would take her punishment over her cooking any day. Living was much better than being bedridden for days or being in pain for hours.

\'Food and mom just don\'t go well together. She is good at business, with money, with people, and with politics but food? Nope.\'

The world and this family was better off without anything related to her cooking. It was Taika\'s fault for even sparking the fire to cook in this mother of mine as well.

I will tell her to mind her words involving mom\'s cooking when we get the chance later today. "Hmm? Ohh! Big brother, mama, and daddy are here~!"

The carriages were gathered outside, and everyone was waiting for us right now.

"Where were you three~?" Anna came running to us and asked with puffed cheeks. She was angry that everyone had to wait twenty whole minutes for us… but only I know what kind of argument these two parents of mine were having… and how they were flirting in between that argument.

"You know how Taika just told her she wanted to taste something she makes? Guess what, dear. This mother of yours took it seriously and went to make something.

She had burned three pots by the time I reached there, but your big brother fortunately dragged her out before more things burned."

"It was an accident, alright! Accidents happen!"

Dad had become more daring or something ever since he came back from that dungeon. He now didn\'t even hesitate to speak against mom, something she found extremely attractive.

But telling Anna she caused trouble for others was not something she was going to take lightly.

"Poor pots… haaa… both of you are at fault, mama. Apologies to each other."

"What did I-"

"Just do it!"

Anna didn\'t like how these two were arguing instead of just coming to terms and getting out of there.

Mom could have been more understanding and could have stopped that childish behaviour while dad could have dragged her out like I did. A good time could have been saved.

"I\'m not apologising! Why would I apologise-"

"Mama!"

It was already late and it will take time to reach the auction house by carriages. It wouldn\'t look good if the hosts themselves are late to their own event, so we had to depart now.

Anna was serious, everyone watching us could tell just with this stern tone. She wasn\'t going to stand there listening to them arguing once again.

"Alright, alright… jeez you ungrateful children."

Mom looked at dad with an upset expression and extended her hand.

"Sorry for acting like a child. Happy?"

Mom genuinely didn\'t think she had made any mistakes and had no intention to apologise to anyone, and that would remain the same even if Anna shouted at her.

"It\'s fine, dear. It\'s not like she did something bad or anything, she just wanted to make something for Taika. She just wanted to see her taste her food as Taika wanted.

Let\'s forget this and go, okay?"

Mom was a prideful person, dad knew that well. If she had not done anything wrong, she would never apologise even if she had to face dire consequences or, see our Anna being angry at her.

"Dad\'s right, Anna. Let\'s leave it at that and go. Everyone is waiting, right?" Anna was dressed nicely once again as she did a few days ago. She looked prettier as well with that newly prepared dress that we had worked quite a bit on.

She knew today was a big day and everyone had worked hard for this, including our friends so she didn\'t want to make any bigger fuss about things.

It was fine as it was and she also knew her mom well so, she just sighed and nodded at her.

"Alright… mama. You were lucky this time but please don\'t do it next time. Don\'t you ok now we have to reach the palace quickly so I can show everyone around the place?"

"Of course I know, baby~. I will try not to waste everyone\'s time the next time."

Mom picked her up with a new smile on her face and kissed her her cheeks gently.

\'Haaa…\'

She knew Anna had been excited about today as well. She had been having fun ever since her grand tea party and had bonded with our friends, especially with their families and summons.

She liked playing with them as well so, when we were going to Hiraani, she couldn\'t possibly not be their Tourette guide.

\'Only a few of them had been to the biggest auction house of the Roxana empire. Quin, Lizzy, Ball, Nox, even princess Luna and Hide had never been to the place so this was going to their first time there. And, Anna knew it very well.

"Alright! Alright! Let\'s just go already~!"

She was happy and excited, and she didn\'t want a normal incident like this one to get the best of her, so she forgave them and hugged mom back.

"Hehehe. Then, shall we?"

Mom was happy as well.

She didn\'t get to make something for her dear Taika, who had been watching us with a smile all from the back all this time. She had not worked at all for this year\'s event and had a great number of helping hands helping her with every single thing, so she was happily enjoying herself since earlier.

She planned to enjoy herself till the end of these three days, since after that, she was not going to get even a few hours for herself with the Grand conference and everything else coming up.

The world was shaken by the invasion of those cultists and it is not going to stabilise anytime soon even after the conference.

She was a countess, as well as one of the few people that had to maintain the flow of the economy of not just this empire but the entire world. Which was no simple task.

\'This little vacation was gave her enough time to rest, but after this grand auction, she is going to get busy with many things.\'

She might not even be home, well I might not as well, so there was a chance Anna would be alone with the others.

It was inevitable with the situations we were in, she understood that as well. That\'s why this one event was so important for them…

"Alright everyone! Get in your carriages! We are departing now!"

Our friend had worked hard for this event… they had worked more than what they were getting paid actually. But that did not matter to them.

They had a fun time working with me and since Rein wasn\'t here last few days, I also had a good time teaching them the a few things that would help them later on.

After Anna\'s tea party, even without Rein here, I wasn\'t alone.

And since the Black Hand people were threatening Hiraani, it was even more fun preparing for their attack.

\'They must have prepared quite a lot.\'

We knew how our surveillance devices were stolen, and how there were suspicions people roaming around Hiraani since a few days ago.

They were experts so they were certainly going to come from the front door and we wouldn\'t even know, it was obvious.

\'<Zack> was also with them so, the security system that I had worked so hard to create was going to face the first real challenge.\'

Breaking in or even creating a simple crack in that system was an unearthly task. I had used Runes as the base so even if someone black into a few layers, they would have to understand the magic as well as elder mages did to just brack in and open the doors that lead to the chamber leading to the place where everything is stored during the auction time.

\'We still don\'t know what <Black angel> truly is after but, he was the one to assemble this team. We know that much.\'

Which means he himself is coming for us… \'I will be waiting for him when he does.\'

They were the best of the best in the world. I\'m expecting to learn at least a thing or two from them.

\'Which will be fun. I know that much.\'
