Chapter 223: l Am Back

Sitting on the seat while grabbing a bite Lucas thought about the things that happened yesterday.

He had used that powder to slow down his opponent's senses and cut his ability to channel mana and even pinned all the blame on Villain Society.

The Princess maid played her part well and he was surprised to know that she used to be an assassin and kill the person brought to the room while acting as a bewitching witch was her specialty.

It would be intriguing to see the chaos that would be happening when Will would see the one armed Kellar pleading with a pitiful expression and teary eyes, telling about the glorious deeds of Villain Society.

This may even confuse Will about whether the Villain Society was targeting him or if he had been under the wrap of the Villain Society who may have tried to kill him in the future.

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

Lucas's expression stiffened and the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.

"Shit!" Lucas rubbed his forehead.

Before going to the hotel Lucas had even put a trash can under the window below and planned to throw that Kellar out of the room who will fall into it but he forgot about it while enjoying the frightening look on Kellar.

That was literally gold. A guy who used to threaten others with a cold indifferent expression crying and sobbing like a retard was quite fun to watch but it was on the premise that the guy was a villain.

Lucas tried to keep his mind preoccupied while wondering about other things, not wanting to feel the uneasiness of meeting his parents for the first time.

His situation was like that of a boy who had chatted with a girl online and proposed to the girl who accepted him and to further solidify their relationship they are going to meet for the first time.

Moreover, Lucas was worried that his parents would somehow feel the anomaly and difference between Lucas and me.

And that thought was eating me away even though we have talked and had video chats over the months.

Still, he knew that no matter, his parents love him and Lucas wanted to take them to the capital and show them how to board the world while enjoying his life with them.

Though they might have probably visited the capital but this time their status would be different because this time they would enter as noble not as a commoner and he will do his best to make it happen.

Lucas took another train and finally reached Leonx city from where he had to look for a cart or a carriage.

Since he had money, he decided to borrow a wagon to reach his home as soon as possible.

Lucas, who sat in the carriage pulled by two horses, stared at a city that slowly started to appear before his eyesight.

Lucas clenched his fist as he couldn't help but feel the slow rhythmical palpitations that started to increase.

It was the same feeling that he feels whenever he thinks about his parents from his previous life who had been buried deep inside his heart

He climbed down from the carriage and took his things and looked at the city

Lucas stood before the gates with big hoarding on them.

[City Of Aegis]

Lucas didn't even take a step in but countless emotions and blurry memories flashed before his eyes.

It was vastly different from the capital which was surrounded by high walls from all sides.

The roads hadn't been well maintained and Lucas couldn't find a taxi or car in it.

"Maybe it's too far and backward so there aren't many modern vehicles."

Lucas would occasionally find a few motorbikes but they were all old models, unlike the recent ones which had a nitro boost.

He felt as if he had come to the year seeing the structure of the house which was mostly made of wood tiles.

Lucas didn't feel odd rather it felt quite pleasant.

Lucas looked for a person and asked for directions to his locality.

After walking for around half an hour, Lucas finally entered the locality which he seemed familiar with.

Lucas's body wriggled a little as he suddenly felt stares falling on him from all around as if he was a big shot.

'What the hell!'Lucas muttered inwardly as he looked around to see many people staring at him.

Some stood before their houses while some were peeking while hiding themselves.

'Should I greet them?'Lucas mumbled but shook away the thought as he didn't remember their faces.

Though they felt familiar, he didn't have a memory of them so greeting them was asking for trouble.

Lucas stood before the three stored houses which seemed to be quite huge compared to the neighboring houses.

Lucas stared at the huge wooden door for a moment and took a deep breath and hesitantly reached for the doorbell of the house.

DING!DING!

.....

Inside The House

A woman sat in the drawing room while looking at the entrance.

Her red hair fell reaching the waist like a waterfall. She was a beautiful fair skinned woman. Her red Phoenix-like eyes were stuck on the door waiting for someone's arrival.

"Huhh!"

"Dear! You should take a rest."

"You have been sitting there like a doll since morning. You haven't even taken the food."

"Nor allowed me to take a bite."He spoke the last sentence faintly but it was enough for her to hear.

She turned her head and gazed at the man with chilling eyes, making the man step back a little.

" What kind of father you are? Your son is coming from such a long distance and all you think is about food."

"Come here and eat my fist." The woman spoke, raising her fist and frightening the man.

DING!DING!

The sound of the doorbell echoed in the hallway and the woman's eyes widened without wasting a single breath she fled towards the entrance, leaving behind the man.

"Lucas, my son, thanks for saving me."

"I will remember your gratitude in this life." The man spoke with teary eyes.

.....

As soon as Lucas pressed the doorbell, on the other side of the door, the sound of the rushing footsteps rushing for the door instantly reached my ears.

My ears perked up and my heartbeat hastened and before he could calm himself, the door opened.

CLANK!

Opening the door, Lucas just saw a flash of a brilliantly smiling woman with red fiery hair and crimson Phoenix-like eyes greeting him and jumping on him with a whisper.

"Welcome home Lucas."

Lucas was hugged tightly and the rain of kisses started to fall on him as if the kisses had been stored in a bank for years waiting to be collected.

Squealing in delight, his mother Eleanor Brightt poured all her love on him.

"Ohhh my baby just look how much you have grown."

Lucas, who fell into her mother's embrace, tried to struggle but he was held by her mother as if he was going to disappear the moment she left him.

Although it was the first time he was hugging the lady who was a stranger to him a year ago, he didn't feel any kind of repulsion rather he earned this embrace more than anything in his life.

Memories of his previous life flashed before his eyes. His mother would always wait for him like this when he went to school or outside the place and would shower him with love when he returns.

A mother's love is boundless and unfathomable and now as he finally got the chance to meet his new mother who welcomed him with open arms, small drops of tears started to trickle down from his cheeks.

Feeling her embrace, Lucas' body became weak and his mind became relaxed as if he had found the most comfortable place.

"I am back Mom."
