Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer Chapter 720 Welcome back

Chapter 720 Welco back…

?[OP: ]

They experienced a long night, one of the longest they had ever been through in their lives, and after only hearing a few words from the master of Lakr, they were in their own unique dilemma.

So students were worried about the people, while so were worried about what would have happened had there had been soone related to them among the list of dead that was announced during that hearing.

So students had people they knew among the people that were announced to be decades, so they mourned for their deaths, rembered their ti with them, rembered the good mories and smiled, rembered the sad mories and cried… various emotions had filed the estate of the Heliox.

The night was long, and there were people there to share their pain. However, at the end, they all had to rest at least for a little while.

Nothing was going to co out of shading tears for the dead people anyway, they knew it, and so many of them went to bed after they had sorted out everything on their mind, let out all the emotions piling up in their hearts, and… the blue hour passed like that.

New bonds were created that night.

Individuals got closer.

Relationships changed.

And by the ti the new morning arrived, they had better expressions, better smiles, and a better overall vibe to them.

They were doing better now, and seeing this, Eon and Rein had warm smiles on their faces, Zoe who was tired even after sleeping like a baby needed so breakfast, while Alf and princess Bell were just entering the house after sleeping outside the entire night.

Thankfully there was a temperature control magic around the place they had accidentaly chosen to sit around, they didn't have a cold or a runny nose.

Quin and Alf had spent the night in their own rooms, thinking about one another, and their sorrows.

They wanted to help each other a little more, and in a better way… but they couldn't bring themselves to take the necessary step to cross the boundaries they had established in their relationship.

They were friends… and if they do more than to be there for each other when the other needed them, if they spend the night together with each other alone, if they do nothing and just sit around with each other for the whole night… they would want to get close, blue the boundaries, break the rules, and do what they shouldn't.

They were friends. And they wanted to stay together as friends.

For now, until they accomplish what they needed to, the two of them had to be friends. Just friends.

And nothing more…

Alf didn't have any thoughts like that. He didn't even know it ant much more to stay with soone throughout the night, talk about things that they don't talk about with anyone else, and just sleep on each other's shoulders.

He considered Isabella a friend, a close friend that also had a draconian familiar.

She was also a parent like him, so they often talked about things that only the two of them knew the best. Things about their children and how they were sotis difficult to handle.

Their days in the academy and their days during the alchemy competition were spent with small talks only, this was the first ti they had spent the end ti night like this.

And both of them liked how it went.

They were a shy still, of course, didn't know how they did what they did yesterday, but it happened. And it wasn't too bad.

Eon and Rein were smirking when they saw the two walking in together, clueless how they weren't just 'friends' anymore. And then Carla was smirking at them when the claid the stairs together.

She wanted to push princess down the stairs so that Alf can catch her in that universally loved dramatic style, but she stopped herself.

It would have been a problem had her dense little brother hadn't acted in ti and th princess of the empire they lived in actually fell of the stairs in thei mansion.

There were enough problems alredy, increasing them would cause more problems and then everything could get chaotic.

She left them, and everyone else went on with their daily routine…

Brackfast was prepared by Eon and Rein themselves so everyone in the mansion were present for the breakfast. Their love for this delicious food was enough to make them forget about the nagitive things for a mont.

There was so packing left so they then finished it until it was ti for their departure.

And since many of them were going to a noble household in the foreign land, they were nervous.

Princess Bell, d and Prince Claudius as well as so others who knew about the empire and the holy capital as well as the rulers of the northern shores knew Heliox houseghold and how it looked from the inside, however, for so like Quin, this was their first ti going to any noble house.

They were nervous.

-Oooooooooong!

"When we pass this gate, we will be inside of the Heliox estate's front garden everyone!"

But they were excited about this as well.

"Huuuuu…"

"Rein, please stay at the very back with Zoe."

"Got it."

They were before the giant [Gate] artifact of the Lakr house.

They had specially permitted them use of this personal property thanks to Eon's request and his help in everything that happened in last two days.

"Walk slowly, there is no need to rush. And please keep holding hands of your partner. It is an important procedure!"

It wasn't, actually.

They were just ssing around with the people that were 'friends' a little less than friends, or a little more than that with this excuse of holding hands while passing through this gate.

And it was very frustrating for the ones who absolutely did not like touching others.

He had put Deleon and Ezra together so it was even becoing even more chaotic. The two of them absolutely hated each other.

Even felt disgusted being near each other.

But seeing the suffering of the two that the others feared quite a bit brought a smile to their faces.

-Oooooooooong!

And then, after saying their goodbyes to the bust rulers of Lakr, as well as the cute little twins who had promised Eon they will visit their house to et his sister when their parents get the chance.

He knew these two, his Anna, Magik, and few other special children they will et were all going to be much more amazing people than them when they grow up.

So he wanted them to be together. And as they passed through the blue gate of triangular shape, vanished from the large castle they were in a mont ago, and reappeared in a cleare green garden with a few knights, The golden hamr, master Zahavi, as well as the cold, golden demoness Countess Nolan standing in front of them.

"Hmmm?"

But the two of them were the only ones greeting them from their family, sothing that confused Eon and Carla who were walking in the very front.

"Where's everyone else?"

Carla spoke up first, and by that ti, everyone else had passed through the gate as well, so even Zoe and Rein could also see the two of them standing before them.

"Mom…"

They didn't understand what was happening, but Eon knew just with the look on his mom's face, as well as the warm smile on his grandpa that this small welco was all because of him.

"You should have just told her…"

He walked upto his mother, looked her in the eye with a smile, bowed down to her respectfully first, and then, when he was done with his official greetings… she hugged him.

"What would be the fun in that?"

The students, their friends who had co here with them, were all fascinated by the attractive garden, especially the flowers all around them.

They were attractive.

The air here was a little more fresh as well.

This place was completely different from the capital city of the principality, they could tell after only a mont of being here.

"where's she?"

"In her room, playing with the little ones, as well as her big lizard."

"She didn't see the competition yesterday?"

"Not the part after Mia beca a master. She fell asleep midway, thankfully."

"It's good then…"

Rein and Zoe knew after hearing these whispers from the mother-son duo what was going on.

"Everyone, if you could please gathere here."

They knew he will have to go for a little while now.

There was soone he hadn't seen in weeks, hadn't talked, hadn't even listened to the voice of since he went to the academy…

He was back now, and she did not know that. Which ant this was going to be a surprise for that little one.

"I will be back shortly…"

"Nah. Take your ti. We have you all to ourselves for more than a day or two now."

He could only smile weakly at that statent… and he could tell from that calm smile on her face that it was a threat so… he knew she was being serious.

"Take care of them until then."

"Of course, baby."

She gave him a forehead kiss, and nodded at him.

"Grandpa-"

"It's fine it's fine. Go surprise the little one."

He was here to escort the others only since they all had decided to wait till his reunion with his little sister.

They all can have him after he was done eting up with her, after she was done with him and his punishnt.

It was evening as well, so instead of staying out in the cold, he should also bring the precious guests, his precious friends from the academy, into the house…
