Chapter 644: Returning Home
—–
Over the years, her parents received her cards, and after she told them that she began to work in the capital, they began to receive money from her… a lot of it.
Vheslia was always very grateful to her parents for all the things they did for her, and she couldn't bear it if she didn't repay for what they did for her, therefore, she ended always paying them for everything they did for her.
She had seen them suffer for her, and she had gone through a lot of hardships herself for her talent lessness. She often thought when she was younger that it would had been better if she died off, as it would had made her parent's lives less unfortunate.
But she decided that instead of dying, that it would be better to one day repay them for everything they have done for her since she was young, not only as her parents but as the two people that have been at her side since the beginning and that had always loved her unconditionally.
Because of this, she didn't wanted to not repay them, deep down she felt the necessity to give them back everything they gave to her, even though her parent's wish was just for her to be happy, and not to push herself to such lengths just to repay them…
Even though she had to go through such big lengths only to reach this point, she always felt like it was not enough, and continued going through restless nights trying to improve her recipes of potions, while also cultivating her mana core and reaching higher ranks over time, becoming strong despite having such a thing as her Mana Stomach…
Meanwhile, all this time, her parents always told her to come back to their house, as they wanted to meet her again, but she had to ignore their request and ended continuing to send them money instead, so she could made sure they always had everything they needed.
But they didn't wanted money… they just wanted to see their daughter.
Nonetheless, Vheslia always thought that after all of this were to be over and she had an insane amount of money, that she would be able to go back and live leisurely with them for the rest of her life… due to this, she continued ignoring their request while sending money as if it were a consolation, all while she continued to work her Alchemy and magic spells.
She improved herself to completely new lengths, surpassing many of her rivals in the process, all while she slowly continued to gain money and save it for her eventual retirement, hopefully at a young age… as she always dreamed of.
But time continued to pass and pass on… without realizing it, she was already over forty years, and she continued working hard to gain more money, she had grown obsessed with making money to secure her life and that of her parents, as decades have passed since she saw them for the last time…
She sometimes thought about them, but her work took most of her time, and when she once tried to finally cure her Mana Stomach through an experiment using dark magic and alchemy, it ended worsening, as her Mana Stomach became a Black Hole and… it required even more food and energy.
This was… quite the bad thing, as it began to drain all the money she had saved, and made Vheslia even more obsessed with earning money, now her parents were not even within her thoughts anymore as she was going through this hardship.
And amidst everything, an old friend from the magic academy called for her classes, seeing this as an opportunity to both take a break, met an old friend she loved dearly, and also earn some money, she decided to go met Gwendolyn once more.
And that's where she met Frank, the mysterious human boy that had suddenly appeared inside of Gwendolyn's house. Vheslia was surprised at first, but decided to go along with it, alongside Annabelle, Hilvera, and Asterion, she taught all the kids important tips about magic, and more, although they seemed naturally gifted with magic from the beginning for some odd reason.
With Frank, many things happened, one after the other, and there wasn't a time where she wasn't surprised by his feats, powers, and other abilities he developed.
Eventually, so many things happened in her life regarding this young man that she couldn't help btu grow more and more surprised about him and his feats, impressed, even, as if he wasn't someone normal at all… How couldn't someone like her, that had never seen someone so incredibly not end up falling for him, even if it was just platonic?
She never thought herself as someone that would ever have a chance with him… but at the end, Gwendolyn didn't forgot her friend, and… well, many things after that, she was already at an incredible level of power thanks to Frank help and her hard work, and also… pregnant with his child.
All while married with him!
Ah! It was a bit of a time skip, but it was really quite a long life she had there! And it all happened in the span of a bit over two years!
However, through all this time, Vheslia had barely got to know about her parents, and was really having a tremendous urge of going to met them at long last and help them out as much as she possibly could.
She wanted to tell them a lot about her life and what had happened and relieve them that things were doing okay for her. Vheslia knew they would have a hard time digesting all the news, but she was willing to work very hard to make it a reality so her parents could accept Frank and love him back the same way she also loved him for everything he had done for her.
"Mother… Father… I am back home." She said with a smile, as she showed up in front of the door, and knocked.
Knock, knock.
