Chapter 132 There is no way I would choose you over my little girl!
Chapter 132 There is no way I would choose you over my little girl!
Vaan walked out of his room with a lost look on his face. Then, a weird smile appeared on his face and,
“He… hehe… hehehe~”
He smiled like a creepy old man as he recalled what just happened.
To think he would kiss Elara twice in a single day and to think Elara would be the one who would ask for the second kiss.
Elara never ceases to surprise him.
She may come out as a shy girl who often fails to stand up for herself, however, she shows quite a strong side sometimes.
Just like how she did just a few moments ago.
“N-N-Now leave! I want to sleep more!”
The second kiss wasn’t as short as the first one. The first time, both individuals were inexperienced, for Elara, it was her first kiss, not that it would have mattered since her mind couldn’t even react to the kiss. As for Vaan, well, although it was not his first kiss, the previous experiences he had were all as Christopher and none of the women he kissed were actually as close to his heart as Elara was.
He had often heard others talk about how their first kiss was Exciting, Memorable, Breathless, Magical, Timeless, Tender, and all other things, he had heard how people often found their hearts beating continuously and how they couldn’t control their emotions even after the kiss had ended.
Christopher couldn’t relate to these feelings. For him, his first kiss was simple contact between lips as he fucked the girl in front of him. There were no feelings involved and he called all the people who described their first kissed as such dramatic.
Today, however, he finally understood.
He finally understood what the first kiss actually meant.
That timeless feeling where he couldn’t recall anything other than that tender feeling on his lips, Vaan couldn’t describe it but he could now understand it.
And the more he understood it, the more dazed he was.
Elara, on the hand, was too embarrassed the moment she realized what had happened. Especially considering that she was the one who asked for it.
Her body moved on its own, she quickly lay on the bed and covered herself with the blanket as she shouted, wanting Vaan to leave.
Hearing his words, Vaan came out of his reverie,
“W-What…? You want to sleep more? But didn’t you just wake up? You have already slept for 18 hours already.” Vaan replied, his mind still wasn’t clear enough to come up with a witty reply.
“I still want to sleep more! Please leave the room!” Elara shouted, still not showing her face. However, Vaan didn’t have to see her face, he could already imagine her face resembling a tomato. He had seen that face countless times these last few hours, after all.
A playful smile appeared on his face and, “But it is my room, shouldn’t you be the one to leave?” He questioned, wanting to see how Elara would react.
But then,
“…it would be my room in the future since it is usually the wife who takes care of these things. So leave.”
Elara replied and Vaan just blinked in surprise.
What else was he supposed to do?
J-Just what the hell was going on with his lovely fiancée?
How is she coming with comebacks which even he had no reply to?
“A-Alright, I’ll be taking my leave, my Future Wife.”
In the end, Vaan had no choice but to give in to his wife’s demand.
And this is how he came to the present situation, where he was roaming outside his room, not knowing where to go.
He wanted to visit the library but honestly, given how his mind couldn’t stop thinking about the precious experience he just had, he knew going there was a waste of time.
In the end, he just sighed deeply and decided to visit his mother.
There were quite a lot of things he wanted to discuss with his mother, he was also feeling sleepy so his mother’s room was a perfect choice.
Making up his mind, Vaan quickly walked towards Astra’s room and knocked on the door. 𝗇𝑂𝗏𝖾𝓁𝑵𝗲xt.𝑐𝑜𝑀
“Come in.”
Astra ordered.
“Mother.” Vaan greeted with a big smile on his face.
Looking at her son, a fresh smile appeared on Astra’s face, and,
“I have been waiting for you, come in, my dear son.” She spoke and suddenly, Vaan raised his eyebrow.
Astra didn’t refer to him as ‘my dear son’ very often.
‘Something’s wrong.’
Vaan could tell it the moment he walked into the room. The air around his mother definitely felt different than normal.
“Have a seat,” Astra spoke as she pointed at the bed.
Vaan carefully sat on the bed as he saw Astra coming towards him. Then, Astra’s hand moved, her speed wasn’t fast, it could even be called slow in Vaan’s eyes since he has been training with his father and his reaction speed had gotten much faster than before.
However, even then, when Vaan tried to move away and dodge her mother’s hand, he failed to do so and Astra instantly grabbed his right ear.
“Aakhh!! It hurts!” Vaan cried in pain.
“You rascal, you dare make my cute daughter-in-law consume alcohol?” Astra questioned as she twisted Vaan’s ear.
“H-How did you know?” Vaan questioned.
‘Was it Gabel?’ he thought inwardly.
“Don’t blame that man, this time, even he tried to hide it from me. If I didn’t have other sources, you would have fooled me.” And as if she could read his mind, Astra replied.
“I need to punish that butler as well. To think he would actually side with you when I am the one who hired him.”
Soon, however, Astra shook her head and,
“But that is not the issue right now,” She twisted Vaan’s ear to the point it turned red and, “How dare you make my daughter-in-law alcohol? Not only that, you even had the balls to take her in your room? Boy, do you have a death wish?”
“Acckkk!” Vaan cried in pain as he tried to tilt his head in the direction in which his mother was twisting his ear in order to lessen the pain. “Why do you keep forgetting that the reason that girl is your daughter-in-law is me, your son! You are supposed to be on my side!”
Vaan complained.
“Your side my foot! There is no way I would choose you over my little girl!”
“But I am your son!”
“Haah… if only that girl was my real daughter.” Astra sighed as she shook her head.
“Thank god she is not.” Vaan sighed in relief.
“Else I would have been forced to commit incest.”
“What did you say?” Astra raised her eyebrow.
“Nothing.”
“I really want to beat you up.” Astra commented as she finally left Vaan’s ear alone. Then, with a playful smile on her face, she looked into her son’s eyes and,
“So? How far did the two of you go? You didn’t go all the way, did you? I would actually beat you up if you did that before marriage.”
“Mother! What are you talking about? Of course, I didn’t. She was drunk, if I do it, it would be whe- no wait, why are you taking to much interest in your son’s private life? Please give me some privacy.”
“Privacy?” Astra raised her eyebrow as she then snapped her fingers. “You really want a beating, don’t you?”
“I-I am an adult.” Vaan didn’t back down.
After all, he had a trump card,
“I don’t think Elara would be comfortable if you act like that in front of her.”
“…” Astra turned silent.
Then, she just shook her head.
Well, of course she knew better than anyone how to respect her son’s privacy, she has eyes all over the Vesta Mansion, however, as she learned Vaan and Elara were together, after confirming their safety, she personally erased the memory of the mage who was keeping an eye on them while they ate and drunk together.
A couple should be given their personal time, Astra knew this better than anyone.
“Mother, you should know about him as well, correct?”
Suddenly, Vaan questioned.
Astra glanced at her son, her playful smile then disappeared and,
“Who are you talking about?” She asked, just to be sure.
“Elric Vesta.”
“Oh.”
Astra realized.
“Did she tell you?” Astra questioned, but then, another theory popped into her mind, and,
“Wait, was this the reason you made her drink?”
“I will not deny I had this in my mind.”
Astra narrowed her eyes,
“I will excuse you today, but I don’t want it to be repeated in the future, no matter what.
That girl is innocent, do not use it against her.”
“I swear whatever I do, I will not hurt her.” Vaan’s answer was clear.
Astra calmed down a little and then,
“What do you want to know?” She questioned.
Vaan then looked into her mother’s eyes, then with eyes that Astra had never seen before, he questioned,
“Can I kill him?”
