“It has been a while since all of us ate together like this.”
Cale placed a piece of steak in his mouth and nodded at Deruth’s comment.
‘Mm.’
He then made eye contact with Duke Deruth as he peeked up.
The Duke was looking at him with a satisfied gaze.
Next to him was the still strict-looking Duchess Violan, who was thoroughly inspecting Cale.
‘Mmm.’
Lily, who was seated next to Duchess Violan, looked down almost to the point that her nose was touching the plate, when she made eye contact with Cale.
“Mmmmm.’
Cale’s cheeks felt hot. He could feel Basen’s fervent gaze from next to him.
‘Should I have brought the kids?’
The children averaging nine-years-old told Cale to have a nice meal as a family and went to the Black Castle with Eruhaben who came to get them.
‘Human! We are going to my mom!’
Raon was excited to head to the Black Castle in the Forest of Darkness to see former Dragon Lord Sheritt.
This was On’s suggestion.
‘I hope you can have a nice time together, nya.’
Cale couldn’t help but frequently think that On was more thoughtful than most adults. Of course, Cale hoped that On would be able to be less thoughtful and freer.
“Ahem. Cale.”
“Yes, father.”
Duke Deruth couldn’t hide his concern and asked.
“This time, umm, are you feeling okay?”
“Yes, father.”
Cale responded without any hesitation.
He could clearly say that without lying.
“I did not cough up any blood nor did I faint. I didn’t even fall over.”
Although he did get extremely dizzy for a little bit… ‘That’s nothing.’
“I slept well, I ate well, and to be honest with you, I did not face any difficulties during my time there.”
A voice that could come off as a bit cold responded back.
“It does seem that way.”
It was Duchess Violan. Cale looked at her perfectly kept hair before making eye contact with her.
“You’ve gained some weight.”
“I think so.”
The corners of Violan’s lips curled up a bit. Cale knew that this tiny change in her expression meant that she was very pleased.
Cale turned to look at Lily after sensing her gaze.
“You’re even taller now.”
Lily flinched at his comment before vigorously nodding her head.
Basen added on.
“Even I get surprised at it, hyung-nim. I would see her and then the next time she would be taller.”
Cale agreed with Basen. Lily seemed to be getting taller every time he saw her.
‘The blood of our family’s martial artist history could be strongest in Lily.’
