《Transmigration of the Wannabe Villain》10. Dinner and Private Talk
Advertisement
In the front of Ehren household, can be seen five or six carriages moving towards the big front gate of the mansion. They moving while being guarded in every angle by a knight in armour and using a defensive formation, so the carriage in the middle will be the one with the most protection.
When they arrived in front of the mansion gate, half of the people separated themselves to lead the carriage to the back of the mansion while half the other walking out of their respective carriage.
In the middle of the caravan, especially from the fanciest carriage than the other, walking out two people. One of them is Yoro's mother, a fine lady with blonde hair which falls to her backs and a blue eyes that contrast with the night sky in above.
And the other person is a man, with jet black hair that not to straight neither curly which make them look silky enough to hold. Both of his eyes are sharp, with the same black colour as his hair, it looks like eyes of a sleeping lion who wait to be waked up. But right now, stick on his face is a friendly smile. A smile that anyone expects when they just go to their save place which called home.
He leads people behind him with firm steps and sturdy posture. While his whole body emanated elegance that should be possessed by all noble. When he walks forward, his eyes never leave one spot. He continues to stare at the boy in the front mansion across him, waiting to greet him for his return. Until he stopped his steps when he is close enough to talk with the boy
Stare deeply at Yoro's stark blue eyes, he then said "I am home, Yoro" his smile widening when he sees his healthy son.
Yoro stares back at his jet black eyes without budging slightly before smile back mysteriously and replying "welcome home... Father...."
And so the first meeting of a transmigrator and marquis of Ehren occurred.
================
In the hall of the Ehren mansion, dinner is being held. A long table placed in the centre with white tablecloth covered it. Around that long table, there is placed many round table with the same white tablecloths as a cover. On top of the table, available all kind of foods you can think of, and people in the hall can be seen eating happily.

In the long table on the centre, sit three people with formal clothes, eating with a manner as a noble. The person who sitting side by side is Arnold Ehner, the current marquis of Ehren and his wife, Diana Ehren. On the opposite side of them, is a boy who is their son, Yoro.
Diana: "Is this all your cooking, Bella?" Yoro's mother said while cutting the steak with her knife before eating it with a fork in her other hand.
Bella: "yes, Lady Ehren" She said while standing behind Arnold, and not eating like others in this room.
Arnold: "haha, as expected, your cooking is always the best one, even chef in the east can't win over you in this area," He said without turning back to face her.
Bella: "ara, you are flattering me Lord Ehren, it is not that much actually" she replies with a giggle while one of her hand covered her smile.
Diana; "by the way Yoro, how is your day while we're gone?" Diana said, boldly trying to change the topic in the conversation.
Being asked by her, Yoro starts to searching his memories, reminiscing his time in the mansion while they're gone for 1 month long. And to describe it, he just needs one word to summarize his whole feeling.
Yoro: "it's boring," he said shortly before adding "without my sword teacher, the only thing I can do to spend my time is only reading books" yep, the books that are written by the earthling he annoyed at.
Arnold: " is that so? He informed me he will be back soon though. so don't worry" Arnold states to him while wiping his mouth before standing "I need to go now, thank you for the dinner" but when he just want to leave, Yoro stopped him.
Yoro: "wait for a second, father. I bought something for you" then he pulls out something bellow the table before giving it to his father.
His father, seeing the bundle on his hand, said: "what is this?" And open it immediately" a new quill? Thanks, Yoro. My old one broke not long ago" he smiled before taking his leave.
Diana seeing that can't stay still and ask him "is it just for your father? what about your mother here?" She said with narrowed eyes to him to make him wave his hands frantically.

"No no, I bought you one too, but because its a bit big, I can't bring it here, so I leave it in front of your room," he said while smiling nervously.
Hearing that, her attitude turns 180 degrees and smile to him "Oh, is that so. Thank you Yoro" but Yoro has lost his appetite for food, after being stared that hard by her.
So with heavy heart, he excused himself and left hurriedly.
=================
Walking in the corridor, Yoro is searching for his father. From Arnold habit, he already knows where Arnold will go after a long journey. So after walking to one of the room, he strips himself naked and uses the available towel in his hips.
Entering in, he instantly feels the warm temperature of the room while he is looking around. in front of him is a pool-like tub that can fit in up to 20 people in there. But this time, there is just one person sitting comfortably in the tub while feeling the hot water he hasn't feel for one month.
Arnold: "Enter in, a hot bath is a good choice to end the exhausting day" he said while exhaling comfortable moan.
Seeing him look so relaxed, Yoro too places his towel to the ground beside him before entered. Instantly he knows why his father looks like that. "You right... This is... Just great..."
They both stay like that until Yoro decides to break the ice.
Yoro: "Father, are you and Chad friends in the academy?" Yoro turns his face and stares at his father to start an empty talk.
Arnold: "hmm? ahh... Chad must be told you about it. That is right, we're in the same gang at that time" looking up to the ceiling, his mouth turn upwards while remembering the old times.
Arnold: "In the gang, I am the richest one, while Chadrac is the most stubborn and powerful... There is one more person which is our brain in the group. But now, he has been one of the kingdom administrators" closing his eyes, he drowns himself in happy nostalgic emotion before Yoro asks again.
Yoro: "how even you three being together?" Interested by how the trio being made Yoro continues the conversation.
Arnold: "hmm... I guess Chad doesn't give you the detail huh...well, promise me you won't tell my wife about this okay?" Seeing Yoro nodded, he then continues "It is actually not something big, but it's quite a coincidence. We're... Uh, kinda loves the same girl at the time" and he ended this conversation right there without adding further details.
Yoro, seeing that, know his father don't want to talk about it. And so he changed the topic. "Talking about the academy, how many years left before I can enter in father?" Right now, the season in here is summer, which is why it is so hot outside. And the school year will begin in late winter later. But, while he knows that much, he doesn't know the minimum requirement in age part.
Arnold: "about that...well, I can just say congratulation. You can enter when the next enrollment is happening. At that time, your age will sufficient for the minimum age requirement in the junior section" he ended the topic as he put both of his hand behind his head.
Yoro: "it's... one season later huh..." He said with grumbling tone.
Arnold: "it will be passed in an instant, just don't think about it too much" he advised.
...
...
They both stay still like that for a while, that is until Yoro decided to talk again to him. But this time, he will use 'that' on his own father as an experiment.
Yoro: "by the way father, I want to ask you something..." He stares at his father's eyes. His voice a bit trailed off in the end.
Arnold: "hmm..? What is it now...?" Arnold also turns his head to stare at his son when he heard the serious tone his son used.
Yoro: "You know... I am actually-" then he activated it.

8 117Re: (Union//Incarnation)
Two years ago, a meteor fell and decimated the southeastern lands of Gaia, turning them into wastelands constantly shrouded in white fog. None of those who saw the blazing calamity with their own eyes lived to tell the tale, and those who attempted to venture in never came back. Since then, towers, caverns, and ruins have appeared and disappeared without a pattern. Those who were brave enough to venture in were rewarded with a partner capable of defying the natural laws as humanity knows it. People started to call them ‘Incarnation’, and before long, more and more Incarnation were gathered and sold as commodity, especially after a billionaire has sponsored a fighting tournament offering cash prizes to those possessing the strongest Incarnation, spurring the greedy and desperate to hunt for the fabled creatures at the cost of their lives. Claire Saphira wanted none of that. She simply wished for a life where she could live without worry of her own survival. As she ran from the debt collectors for the umpteenth time, she was swallowed by an errant tower, where she saw a frail, pale-skinned girl with ashen hair hung by chains. It was a chance, a chance to participate in the tournament and live without worrying about survival. Yet, something nagged in the back of her mind. Why did she look so familiar? Planned release schedule: One chapter every day for Mon-Fri, and a break on Sat-Sun. The release will slow down at some point, but most likely won't go under 3 chapters a week.
