Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start-Chapter 973: The Next Day
-----
I greeted my family for lunch, as it was already quite late. And after a few explanations of how I went, things calmed down and we enjoyed the meals together. My family was still very happy and shocked that we won't against such a strong being. But I think they had already gotten rather used to the level of accomplishments we were doing.
"S-So, now that the mountains are freed from the dragon, it seems we'll be able to finally benefit from the mithril there." My father said. "I heard the chief was going to make a huge celebration over your victory. Maybe even the Duke was going to come with his family too."
"That would be interesting, though I don't particularly care about being celebrated or something… If possible I would just skip all of that." I said, drinking some tea after lunch.
"You can't just say that though, big bro!" Anna complained.
"Y-Yeah! It's super cool what you did, be proud!" Said Allan.
"I guess…" I shrugged. "I just feel it is unnecessary to celebrate when the world is still in chaos out there. But fine, it's not like I was going to run away or something."
"I hope so." Elizabeth said. "I want you to be well presentable for that day. I think it'll be tomorrow. It will be a big meeting and a big celebration. Bestellen was a ridiculously strong being, a fallen god it could be said. What we did is a feat at the level of Hero Dylan… If not even higher?"
"What are the feats of that guy?" I asked.
"From what I've heard, he had slain a few Demon Overlords in the frontline." Said Elizabeth. "But they couldn't be as strong as Bestellen, right?"
"Definitely not, but if he slain them by himself, then he's indeed very strong." I nodded. "Well, I don't care if we are compared or not."
"You sure don't care about many things, grandson, but you need to understand that they are very impactful and amazing for the people around you." My grandmother stated. "For the sake of these people, please accept their celebrations and congratulations."
"…I will, and I understand what you're saying, grandma." I nodded. "Don't worry." She nodded grumpily after my words.
"A-Anyways! I was thinking on just relaxing and chilling for today, Blake." Erika said. "So don't worry about doing much. You've done a lot already- we've done a lot actually."
"Yeah, I can't believe you're going away in a week from now." My mother sighed. "Are you sure you're delving into the elven continent so soon?"
"It's fine. Once we get that done, we'll have a long vacation and take the rest of the year." I smiled. "Now that I've acquired a lot of power from slaying Bestellen, the next step is to help my friend Elfriedden and liberate his home country- no, continent. Fafnir is a similar dragon to Bestellen, if not stronger because he's younger. But we'll defeat him, I promise you."
"Hahh… It was up to me; I would just tell you to just do normal school activities. But it's obvious you don't want to, dear." My mother sighed inwardly. "You're amazing and strong, and I'm so proud of being your mother… But I sometimes worry, I know you're strong, but I still worry.
I think it is something, a feeling, that a mother can never take away, no matter how amazing and strong their children might be."
"I'm sorry for worrying you so much…" I sighed. "I'm doing this for everyone, for this world I love so much, for you and the rest of the family… I want my children to live in a world of peace and tranquility. I'll achieve that with the powers I've been born and developed, these gifts must not be wasted sitting idly."
"The true words from a hero." Laughed grandmother. "Let the boy be, it's not like we can ever stop him. We'll worry, and we might even cry, but he'll do as he said. He slain Bestellen, what other fantastical feat we could ever ask him to do now? He has done them all!"
"Hahaha! It wouldn't be an understatement to say I am already the father of a Legend!" My father laughed. "You make your dad proud too, son!"
"Thank you father." I nodded. "Without your guidance at the beginning of my life, I might have never been able to walk through the proper path, I'm really grateful for your teachings."
"Ah, don't say stuff like that!" He laughed, growing redder in embarrassment. "You're making your old man all embarrassed, haha!"
"Be proud, haha. Anyways, do we have dessert? I'm still a bit hungry." I said.
"Sure! We got some fruit. Erika, Elizabeth, want to help me make some fruit salad?" Asked my mother.
"Sure mother-in-law!" Erika said.
"Of course." Elizabet smiled. freewebnøvel.com
"I got some ice cream here too, let's share it." I said, opening my inventory.
"Oooh, is that the cold cream thingy? I want some of that too!" My grandma asked.
"Granny, don't you think you're eating too many sweets nowadays?" My father sighed.
"Shut it you! I am old and I don't really have much time left, so let me enjoy the little time I got left! I'll eat all I want, heh!" My grandmother smiled proudly and cockily.
"You heard her." I shrugged.
"Ice cream! Ice cream!" Anna and Allan were almost singing in unison.
Everyone liked this ice cream I started making recently. I suppose using the recipe to mass produce it wouldn't be so bad in the future.
As the day went by, we enjoyed a nice dessert of ice cream and delicious, fresh fruit salad, with whipped cream on top.
It was a rather big dessert, but we were all hungry anyways, and with family, laughter, and good food, the sun went down from the horizon faster than I thought.
When the night was slowly arriving, I was resting over the grass field right in front of my house, looking at my grimoire.
"Hmm, so there was a quest to defeat Bestellen, huh?" I was surprised. "The rewards better be generous…"
