Leon Greyrat: The Second Son - Mushoku Tensei OC

Chapter 69 - We Have Been Reunited: Finale

— Leon Greyrat —

"Are you sure about splitting everything evenly?" my father asked.

"Yes, we're sure. Now stop asking," Lina said, shaking her head.

"But... Rudy and Leon only joined us for the final week, right?" my father continued, frowning slightly. "I'd feel bad if our family took so much... especially when you guys helped us get Zenith and Lilia..."

"Haa... seriously, what a troublesome man," Lina sighed, shaking her head, "First, we needed Leon and Rudy's strength for the final push. Who knows who would have died without their assistance. Secondly, we wanted to get Zenny anyway. There was no promise of a reward when we did so."

I looked over at Lina with a smile.

She really was quite generous... they all were, letting us take an equal share when we... when I owed them so much.

Turning away my warm look, Lina continued, "Just accept it, Paul. You'll need the money for your new life anyway."

"Fine..." my father conceded.

Feeling my heart soar at their interaction, I leaned forward and rested my chin on Mama's shoulder, who was sitting in front of me.

Everything had gone so well... I was so happy.

The heightened emotions I had been feeling since Mama awakened were still present, and in fact, they had grown stronger with each passing day, leaving me in a constant state of bliss.

Really... I was a very lucky guy, in every single way.

After a few weeks of staying in Rapan after the successful rescue, we were now starting the journey back home, heading south towards the teleportation ruin Rudy, Sara, and I had used to get here.

I wanted to get back as soon as possible.

I had some cute sisters and a lover to see, after all.

Anyway, we had spent the period of rest selling off whatever items from our labyrinth clearing that we could, as well as getting supplies for the trip, including two tamed armadillo-looking monsters for transport, the same ones we used for our travels between Rapan and the labyrinth.

One was pulling a cart, which contained everything we didn't sell and what we would be taking back home, as well as Lilia, who was currently sleeping.

The other one was what Mama and I were currently riding, with some more supplies strapped to its side.

While slow, they were sturdy things, though I didn't know what to do with them once we get to Sharia.

These things weren't meant for such cold weather, after all.

Maybe some people would want an exotic pet from the Begaritt Continent?

Either way, while I had left the gathering of supplies to Geese and Rudy, I myself had bought some presents to bring home to my sisters, just as promised.

For both of them, and our household as a whole, I had bought some interesting glassware and glasses that looked pretty and unique, with some of them even being tinted with colour.

For Aisha herself, I had gotten her a little cactus, knowing how much she loved plants.

I just hope it wouldn't die in such cold weather... it should be fine, right?

And for Norn, I had gotten her a curved sword, since her current one was getting a bit small for her.

I also got both of my sisters a thin silver necklace each, an idea I had ever since I saw the shabby state of their current necklaces.
