Chapter 138 Back to Home.
In the Castle, Moonshadow City.
At night, after Maximus and his family returned to Moonlight Empire, a banquet was held.
"Maximus, you're finally back," Francis, the father of Erica, said.
"How are you, father-in-law? You seem quite comfortable."
"Hahaha, it's really comfortable," Francis laughed as his belly jiggled.
The previous thin man suddenly became a giant.
"It looks like the food of the Moonlight Empire didn't disappoint you."
"Indeed, I don't have anything to do besides eating and drinking," Francis said.
Because of Maximus's support, his restaurant became famous, and set up multiple chains across the empire.
Now, Francis had become a food guru, just like the shape of his body.
"Where is the boy Liam? I don't seem to see him," Francis asked.
"He is busy with something," Maximus accessed the array and saw Liam doing his business.
"Hey, kids really grow up. I still remember Liam being very clingy to his grandpa like yesterday," Francis reminisced, remembering his grandson.
"There is Max and Sam to accompany you," Maximus pointed to the "Grandpa, you're so fat!" Sam remarked.
two sons.
"That's right, Max, Sam came here. This grandpa misses you!"
"Grandpa!" Max exclaimed.
"Grandpa, you're so fat!" Sam remarked.
"What fat?! I've just become overly healthy," Francis said, rubbing their heads.
"Granpa, you should diet a little. Look at your belly; it's bigger than me," Max advised.
"Alright, I'll surely diet," Francis agreed while gobbling a sweet pastry in his mouth.
"You're still eating, Grandpa, you liar," Sam pointed out.
"No, no, I will diet later. This is the celebration of your returning home, so I should celebrate," Francis reasoned.
"By the way, how is school? I heard from your father that you go to school," Francis shifted the topic.
"School is great!" Max exclaimed.
"School is boring," Sam sighed.
"It's for your future; you should study well," Francis said to Sam.
"Oh," Sam replied.
"I heard that there is someone you like, Max?"
"N-no," Max quickly denied it.
"Really?"
"Yes, really."
"Hehe, how about I teach you a bit of my style?"
"What style?" Sam asked, looking at his grandfather.
"Don't worry; just listen to me."
"After this lesson, you will be able to get whomever you want."
"Huh?" Sam still didn't understand.
However, Max was quiet, listening intently to his grandfather.
"First..."
...
"Lily, you've grown up to be a beautiful lady," Grace, the mother of Hazel, said.
"You've also become more beautiful, Grandma," Lily shyly replied.
"The last time I saw you, you were only a little kid."
"But now, only after a year, you've grown this big."
"It's because the Arcane Continent is nourishing," Lily reasoned.
"By the way, where are Nathan and Luke?" Grace asked.
"They seem to be playing outside the castle," Lily explained.
"Grandma, did you forget me?" Layla jumped in, looking cute.
"Of course not; how could I forget my beautiful granddaughter?" Grace said.
"And you too, Lydia, you've grown quite beautiful, just like your mother," Grace praised.
"Hmm, thank you, Grandma," Lydia replied.
Although they were not blood-related, their relationship was strong.
Their mother, Luna, and Livia didn't have any parents, so Grace decided to be the grandma of these two cute little things.
"By the way, how is your life on the Arcane Continent? Did anyone bully you?"
"No, Grandma, we're very good," Lyla said.
"With Dad, no one dares to bully us," Lily added.
"Yes, it's very good," Lydia nodded.
"That's good..."
...
"Come, my lovely grandson!" Rachel, the mother of Rose, called Neo.
"Baby, your grandma is calling you," Rose urged Neo, who was sleeping in her embrace.
"Is it time to eat?" Neo murmured with his eyes closed.
Sleeping in his mother's embrace is really comfortable.
Fortunately, Neo was only like a three years old kid, so he was not heavy.
"No, it's your grandmother."
"Grandmother?" Neo repeated.
He seemed to vaguely remember that he indeed had a grandmother.
Because he was just a few months old when they left, but he did remember her quickly.
"I'm here, baby Neo," Rachel didn't wait and grabbed Neo.
"Are you my grandma?" Neo asked, rubbing his sleepy eyes.
"So cute!" Rachel didn't say anything and kissed Neo all over.
"Mother, I also want to hug Neo." Vane the sister of Rose said.
"No, baby Neo is mine!"
"Neo, this auntie wants a hug," Vane said pitifully.
"No, Neo is mine!"
"Neo, your grandma is a bully!"
"No, Neo is mine!"
Neo had already given up moving, letting them do whatever they wanted.
...
"Who are these two beautiful granddaughters?" Joana, Irene's mother, asked when she saw Serene and Cyra walking hand in hand.
"Are you our grandma?" Cyra asked.
"Cyra?" Joana asked, unsure because she had only seen baby Cyra and was not sure.
"Yes, I'm Cyra, and this is my sister, Serene," Cyra introduced.
Serene's mother, Angeline, didn't have a family, so she was with Cyra.
"Grandma?" Serene cutely said.
"Oh! It's my two cute granddaughters." Joana quickly gave the two a hug.
"Where is your mother?"
"They are with Daddy!" Serene said.
"Oh, then you can stay here with your grandma."
"You're so big now; last year, you were only a baby," Joana said, pinching the cheeks of the two.
"Beautiful babies grow fast," Cyra reasoned.
"Yes, yes. I want to grow up quickly and be as beautiful as Mommy!" Serene nodded.
"Don't grow too fast; I still like the cute baby look you have now."
"Then we'll stay with Grandma for a while," Cyra said.
"Grandma is also cute," Serene complimented.
"This grandma's granddaughters are indeed sweet cuties..."
"Grandma, tell us stories!" Cyra ask.
"Yes, Grandma has a lot of stories..."
...
Outside the castle:
"Brother, why are we following Brother Liam?" Luke asked impatiently.
"Shhh, let's see what Brother Liam is trying to do," Nathan, who was usually silent, said.
"Oh, but why are we hiding?"
"Of course, it's cooler this way," Nathan casually fooled Luke.
"Really? It seems that it's indeed cooler this way." Luke also believed him, trying his best to hide.
...
In a famous restaurant in Moonshadow City:
Amara received a message from Liam that he had come to Moonshadow City and wanted to meet her.
"Where is that guy..." Amara sighed as she waited.
"You're here," a voice from behind said.
"Who?"
"It's me, Liam... long time no see," Liam smiled.
Amara was stunned, looking at the tall man, who smiled at him.
"Surprise?" Liam smiled.
"You've grown so much!" Amara said in shock.
"So have you," Liam replied.
Liam thought that Amara would still look little, but looking at her now, they seemed to have been apart for five years.
"Uh- I also don't know how I grew so big," Amara admitted.
Amara still didn't have her memories but with the blessing of her talent and sufficient mana.
Amara looked comparable to Liam's blessing in the Origin Domain.
Now they both appeared to be 13-15 years old, ready for marriage.
"Hmm, it doesn't matter..." Liam looked into Amara's eyes.
Although they still communicated through the intercontinental token, Liam missed Amara.
Liam didn't know what he saw in the little kid Amara in the past.
But looking at the beautiful Amara now, he couldn't blame his past self.
"W-what are you looking at?" Amara blushed as Liam stared at her.
"I just want to engrave your look into my memory."
"W-what are you saying?"
"I'm saying you're beautiful."
"Y-you! You've become more shameless!" Amara said in embarrassment.
"What shameless? I'm just telling the truth."
If Maximus saw this, he would give a thumbs up and say, "As expected of my son, you have a bit of my style!"
But outside, two eavesdroppers overheard Liam and Amara's conversation.
"Brother, look, what are they saying?"
"It seems that I understand it, but I don't understand it at the same time?" Luke asked Nathan.
"Hmm, it's because you're still a kid."
"Anyway, what are we doing here? I'm getting hungry," Luke complained.
"It's just that it's boring in the castle. How about we eat here?" Nathan suggested.
"Sure," Luke completely forgot about his dissatisfaction.
As for Nathan, he quietly did his duty.
Later, he would report to his sister Lily what he found...
...
In the castle, Maximus and his wives were quietly drinking, admiring the city's view.
"How beautiful," Hazel said, admiring the view.
"I can't believe it's only been a year since we left here," Erica sighed.
Looking at the beautiful lights, like night stars on the ground, they couldn't help but be mesmerized.
"It's really good to be home," Angeline commented, taking a sip of her drink.
"It seems that just yesterday were still living a life of hell..." Luna sighed as she reminisced.
"It's over now, sister. Now we have our husband with us." Livia said, holding her sister's hands.
"Marrying you, husband is the best thing in my life," Irene said, hugging Maximus.
"Hmm, marrying all of you is also the best thing that happened to me."
"How can that be the same?" Isabella rolled her eyes.
"Then every second, every minute, every hour, every time that I'm with you is the best time of my life."
"Hmph, I'll only give you 99 points so you will not forget to love us," Isabella said.
"How can I?"
"I will live for eternity, with you forever in my arms..."
