Chapter 406 - Im home (1/2)
After saying sorry a few more times to the members of the Mercenary club, Rika led them inside the former capital of Berdonia, which was now in the form of a medieval fortress. She then let them stay at one of the empty houses and told them to wait while she calls their relatives.
A few minutes later a bunch of people arrived.
”Onii-sama!”
”Nii-nii!”
”Emily! Kyle!”
”My beautiful son!”
”My son!”
”...”
”Rachel!”
”Little sis!”
Different voices shouted at the same time, as Lilitth and Niki jumped onto their respective brothers. Sarah was crying as she saw Kyle no longer had eyes. Niel's parents surrounded him with their bright smiles. Michel holding the twins smiled happily as she greeted Alex. One of Sayaka's uncles came to greet her.
”Kyle, what happened to you?” Sarah held onto Kyle's hands as she wept. In response to this Kyle gently caressed Sarah's face as he showed her a smile.
”I'm sorry Sarah, it doesn't look like I'll be able to see your beautiful paintings again.” Hearing what Kyle said Sarah could no longer hold it in as she cried even louder and hugged Kyle as tightly as she could.
”It doesn't matter, all that matters is that you're safe. Both of you are.” Sarah signaled Emily to join in their hug. Emily shrugged her shoulders and happily joined in.
...
”Onii-sama! I've missed you Onii-sama!” Lilitth hugged Alex not wanting to let go. Michel holding the twins stood in front of Alex, and said: ”welcome home.”
”I'm home.” Alex, Lilitth, Michel and the twins went for a group hug happy to see each other again.
”Where's Carlo?” Michel asked, ”yeah where's tou-chan?” Lilitth looked around confused. When Alex heard their question he knelt down and started tearing up. ”Onii-sama why are you crying? It's alright now.”
”I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.” Michel seeing Alex like this could figure out what happened to Carlo. She was sad inside, no she was devasted, but she was now tasked with the job of comforting Alex as his mother, so she couldn't show her weakness now.
