BXBX NOVEL Chapter 442 - Reunion?
Lawrend made a guess inside his heart. He wasn\'t sure, but if it was his father, he would definitely start something like this.
As a man, Lawrend could sympathize with him. He would surely be addicted to maids after meeting his mother.
They entered the shop and were greeted by the provocatively dressed maids. They were setting up the shop to open and stared at the visitors in surprise.
"Master, should I?" Aleshia asked.
"No… I will take care of this." Lawrend stopped her.
He walked towards the maids in the shop and looked at each of them. They looked beautiful and sexy. Even he was aroused by them.
But he was worried that one of them might be his mother.
"I want to meet the owner of this shop," Lawrend said.
The maids inside the shop glanced at each other and shook their heads together.
"That\'s impossible. The manager ordered us to never allow anyone to meet him," one of the maids said.
She wore a maid uniform with a large x-shaped hole on her chest.
"What if… I\'m his son. Would you let me see him?" Lawrend asked solemnly.
The maids glanced at each other before the one in the lead motioned for Lawrend to follow her.
Lawrend motioned for his maids to stay and wait. That maid led him through a curtain and up a staircase. They then arrived in front of a room.
*Knock* *Knock*
"Master, your son is here," the maid said before she turned around and left.
Lawrend was suspicious of her actions, but he let it go. There was no way that she knew that he was his father\'s son from the start.
A minute later, the door slowly opened. A red-haired man stood behind the door.
He wore a loose robe and stared at Lawrend indifferently.
"Why are you here? Aren\'t you happy roaming the kingdom with your maids?" Rendal asked.
"What are you talking about? I heard everything!" Lawrend shouted angrily.
He didn\'t like the attitude his father was showing him. Here he was, suffering from the news, yet his father greeted him so passively. It was almost as if he didn\'t care about him at all.
"Everything?" Rendal slowly widened his eyes in shock.
"Rubrignis Clan, my mother, and your exile," Lawrend replied.
"Y-You… From whom did you hear that?" Rendal asked shakingly.
"The Clan Head revealed everything to me before I killed him," Lawrend answered.
"Good, Good… That bastard deserved to die!"
A smile blossomed on Rendal\'s face. The way he looked at Lawrend changed.
"D–... Do you understand me now?" Rendal asked with excitement in his eyes.
He was forced to endure everything till now. He was upset when he learned that his son was frivolously playing around with his maids when he was silently suffering. That was why he looked at him indifferently earlier.
"What about mother? Where is she?" Lawrend asked hopefully.
"Your mother…"
Rendal bit his lips and looked away.
Lawrend felt a premonition when he saw his face.
"Unfortunately, I tried to save her, but I was too weak… They killed her and threw her body down a well…" Rendal explained sadly, with tears slowly filling his eyes.
"Father…"
Lawrend entered the room and embraced his father. He could feel the pain and everything that his father felt.
He was supposed to be very mature as he was much older in his past life, but right now, he was like a baby. The two of them cried together.
"I\'m sorry, son… The exile prohibited me from teaching you magic. If they didn\'t destroy my magic, I would have become an Arch Mage by now," Rendal said bitterly.
"So that\'s why."
Lawrend embraced him tighter as more and more tears poured from his face.
"I didn\'t want you to walk the same path I did… Alas, like father, like son. You really are my son," Rendal said and clasped Lawrend\'s cheek.
"Father… I will avenge you! I will destroy the whole Rubrignis Clan!" Lawrend shouted angrily.
"There\'s no need. That Masla was the culprit behind everything. He wanted to take the Clan Head position from me, so he did everything he could to convince everyone against me," Rendal replied bitterly.
"You\'re too kind, Father," Lawrend replied.
He fully accepted Rendal as his father at this point. It might sound odd even though he was from another world, but his flesh was here because this man sacrificed everything he had for him.
"I don\'t want the clan to be destroyed because of me. I would be hated by the ancestors," Rendal muttered and sighed.
"Then… Do you want to be the Clan Head? The position is currently empty," Lawrend seriously said as he released his father from his embrace.
"That\'s impossible. He still has his heir."
"Vernon? I already killed him too," Lawrend calmly answered.
"Hm? Hahahahahaha! I\'m proud of you, son!" Rendal laughed loudly.
"Masla, your greed finally bit you in the ass! See you in the afterlife after I died honorably as the Clan Head!" Rendal shouted to the ceiling.
He imagined Masla staring at him from the afterlife, and it made him happy. His number one nemesis finally died. He could finally rest at ease.
"Did they make you sign a contract?" Lawrend asked.
"No. It was because Masla controlled the whole clan at that point. He would order the elders to kill me if I enter the capital city," Rendal replied.
"Then let\'s return to the clan! I will kill everyone that goes against your way!" Lawrend said solemnly.
This was the best he could do to repay his father.
"No. Rather, I want you to help me recover my magic. I will grow stronger and show them myself what I\'m capable of." Rendal shook his head.
As a talented mage, he was proud and wouldn\'t allow himself to cheat his way to the Clan Head position.
"Fine.. As long as you are happy."
