After we left school I went straight to the inn. Of course I was with Lily and we were walking side by side.

"Lily, I'll introduce Mary to mom today." I said to Lily as I walked beside her.

Lily looked at me for a moment, apparently she was a little surprised, but it looks like she knew I would do it sometime.

'It was the only time that mother came to the capital.'

Well that was certainly it. Mom hadn't come to the capital since I moved here, apparently she had a lot of work taking care of the village.

"Finally you will do that." Lily said as she patted my back, she seemed to be supporting me.

After some more walking we arrived at the door of the inn. When we entered the inn, we meet our father, apparently she was leaving the inn after talking to my mother. She was sitting at one of the tables with Marya.

"Mother." I called my mom as I walked towards her desk along with Lily.

When Mom saw me, she waved her hand and gestured for us to sit with them.

"Mom, I can't stay here now, I'll get my girlfriend so you can meet her," I said as I smiled pleasantly toward my mom.

She thought for a moment and told me to pick her up, so I quickly left the inn and started walking around town again.

'The demons' Seeing the city landscape I remembered the demons.

I didn't know where they were, if they were still hiding inside this city, or if they fled after Sonya's death.

After walking for a few minutes I arrived at the door of the inn where Mary was staying.

When I entered the inn the owner of the inn already recognized me and gave me a copy of the key. Apparently Mary had told him to hand me the key whenever I came here to see her

I went upstairs to the inn and opened the door to Mary's room, when I opened the door Mary was in front of a mirror combing her beautiful silver hair.

"Good night." I said as I approached Mary.

"Good night Endl." Mary stopped combing her hair and turned to greet me with a big smile.

I started talking a little with Mary, I told her that mom was already waiting for us at the inn and we could go now.

Mary just agreed. Since she was wearing a simple outfit, she asked me to leave the room to put on a better outfit.

After a while Mary left the room wearing a beautiful dress with black ruffles.

"You look beautiful." I said as I approached to kiss her.

Mary accepted the kiss without any resistance.

After I finished giving her the necessary affection we set off toward the inn to meet my mother.

After walking for a while we arrived at the inn.

As soon as we entered, all attention was turned to Mary, as she wore a wonderful dress.

I took Mary's hand and started walking toward my mother's desk.

Mary squeezed my seemingly nervous hand, but I just shook her hand back and smiled at her, to see if she calmed down.

"Good night, I'm Endl's mother." Mom said as she got up from the table and reached for Mary hand with a sincere smile on her face.

"Good evening, nice to meet you." Mary held my mother's hand and returned the smile.

After they introduced themselves, we sat at the table.

At the table was Mother, Mary, Lily, Marya and Me.

Marya was quite quiet, it seems she didn't want to get in on my Mother's date with Mary.

After that, my mother and Mary continued talking for a long time, they seemed to be getting along very well.

They kept talking about me all the time, I was already starting to feel annoyed.

'Well, it's not just me.' I thought about it and looked around, there I saw Lily and Marya seemingly bored since the conversation was just between my mother and Mary.

After a while, we all finished eating the food Deby had brought before, so it was time to say goodbye.

"It was great meeting you, I hope to see you again soon." My mother said as she hugged Mary.

"I hope to see you too soon." Mary said as she returned my mother's hug.

I didn't know how close they got to the point of hugging each other, but I'm glad.

After that I took Mary to her inn while talking to her about meeting my mother. Apparently she found my mother very nice and really enjoyed talking to her.

I left Mary at her inn and quickly returned to my inn, arriving there I saw my mother still sitting at the table.

"You found a beautiful wife." My mom said as she drank a glass of wine and smiled at me.

"She's not my wife yet." I said while denying my mother's statement with all my might.

"So you intend to propose to her." My mother was mocking me, but she was correct, I would like to propose to Mary.

"Of course, I will propose to her." I said confirming my mother's statement, as I had no reason to hide it.

My mother, Marya and Lily were quite surprised that I admitted so strongly, but I don't care about that much.

After a while, I went to the bathroom and showered, the next instant I climbed into the bedroom and lay on the bed.

My mother, Marya and Lily were still talking downstairs, but as it was not a subject that pleased me I just decided to sleep.
