~~~(POV: Alia Zern)~~~
~~~(Location: Outside of Mansion, The Kingdom of Zenith)~~~
~~~(Ti: 11:26 AM)~~~
The kids run around the gardens with smiles on their faces, and a couple of my friends drink so tea with . I've made friends with so noblewoman... It was hard at first, but after I got settled in and started to learn how all this works, it got a little easier talking to others.
"You know, Lady Zern. There are people talking around town about how you've helped the holess and the misplaced children all around The Kingdom of Zenith. But I still don't see why you'd do so much when you already have a lot on your plate."
My first noble friend is Viscount Marble, and the other joining us today is the Wife of Duke Opinfeld, Marie Opinfeld. Marble says things like this frequently.
I've set up non-profit organizations to help as much as I can. Even with my responsibilities regarding the developnt of the land acquired in the war, I still need to help those that can't help themselves.
Kids that have been abandoned or lost their parents due to diseases, war, mistreatnt by local nobles... The third is rare, but it happens here in Zenith. Those kids need a chance at life, and that's what I'm doing.
"They can talk about all they want, but that doesn't an I'll be listening. I've got enough going on, and listening to gossip isn't the first on my priority list."
The two accompanying let out sighs with so chuckles here and there. As noblewon, they have as much responsibility as their husbands. The sighs are of agreent and no misunderstanding.
"I think the way you handle everything is great, Lady Zern... But you do have a lot protecting you besides the King... Many nobles are still mad about how fast you rose to power, but considering who your son is, it's not like they can say sothing about it."
One thing I like about spending ti with Marble and Marie is they tell how it is. Even if I wouldn't agree with it or not. But in this instance, I do agree with them.
My son is my greatest protector, and even when he's not here. People fear his wrath if they try anything with ill will. I love my son, and I'd do anything for him... There are tis that I miss him so much...
Those are the hardest days and the days that last the longest. I wonder every day where he is out there in the big bad world of Gaia... I haven't heard from him or about him in a long ti...
"Would you rather have soone else doing the things I'm doing? Even without my status as a noble, I'd still be able to change so lives... Now I'm just able to change more than before..."
My friends stay silent at my response, and Marie's question does echo in my mind. I'm protected by many people due to who my son is, and he's not the only one that actively protects . The Church of Light, King Jackson, and Queen Tessa also watch out for .
The chances I get to et up with my friends like this are rare, and since today is a day off. There was no better ti to ask them to co by. Spending the day lazing about was a good idea, but it's better when you have company.
"I'll tell you one thing. No matter where you are, you'd help anyone you could. Cause that's who you are."
The sudden male voice startles Marble and Marie since it cos from behind us. My heart and mind freeze... I know that voice... That voice belongs to the most important person in the world to .
As we all spin to look, I see my son standing there with a smile on his face and his arms folded across his chest. His hair has gotten longer... He needs a haircut... It isn't too long...
Marble and Marie are quiet and frozen in place. Like their seeing sothing that they shouldn't be seeing. But I don't follow their lead. I jump up from my chair, and I launch my arms around my son.
"ALMIGHTY FATHER ABOVE!! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL YOU WERE HEADING HERE!?"
This is the loudest I've been in a long ti, and my yells of happiness draw the attention of the kids running around the garden. As well as, so guards co rushing from around the corners with their weapons drawn. Only to lower them seeing who I'm hugging.

~~~(Ti: 11:31 AM)~~~
Alia is looking up at with stars in her eyes as my surprise visit, and she's also waiting for an explanation as to why I didn't warn her I was on my way here. The two won that are here with her are looking at with a mixture of admiration, fear, and excitent.
"I didn't want to ruin the surprise. And I'm also here on a quest. Since I'm in the area, I knew that I had to drop by."
She jumps up and down in her casual clothes and wraps in another hug. Her friend's clothes are nobler and less comfortable. The best way to describe Alia's clothes is a mix between casual wear and pajamas.
"This is the best surprise that I've had since the first day I t you!! You couldn't have co at a better ti, either! I have today off, and we can spend quality ti together!! I want to hear how my son has been doing on his travels!!"
My mother from Gaia is soone that I've grown to see as another mother. But I know that if my mom from Earth heard calling Alia mom, she'd lose it. So it's best to just never have my mothers find out about each other.
"And these must be your two friends. Would you mind introducing them to ? They seem a little lost for words..."
My mother smiles as she turns, and she's the shocked expressions on their faces. She grabs their hands and lifts them off their chairs.
"This one is Viscount Marble, and here is my other good friend, Duchess Marie. They're here enjoying their day off with while the kids play."
I hold out my hand in an attempt to shake their hands, but both beco as rigid as statues. My mom has to guide their hands to et mine for their handshakes. My attention turns back to Alia, and she has a slightly confused look.
"Where's Sally? I was looking forward to talking with the sweet girl again. You didn't break up with that beautiful and kind woman, did you!?"
I slowly shake my head with a smile and take a small breath.
"We're both having to handle quests separately. Once I'm done with mine, I'll be eting up with her again. We talk all the ti using the system."
As I finish speaking, she imdiately opens her system, and that's when I see she's turned into a Player herself. Which ans she's undergone the trials to beco one. After a couple of seconds, I get a friend request, and it's Alia. It even shows her as my mother in the system.
"Now, I'll be able to talk with you any ti I want. Do you know how much it hurt when you stopped responding to any letters I sent? I felt like I didn't matter anymore!"
Checking my mail at every place I stop at wasn't at the forefront of my mind, but now that she can talk to any ti she wants, I don't think she'll have anything to complain about now.
