The Author's POV

Chapter 467

Clank—!

Closing the door behind me and entering the apartment, I was greeted by my mother's cheerful voice.

"Welcome back you two."

"We're back."

Lowering my body, Nola hopped down on the ground. In her mouth was a small lollipop.

"Mama!"

Like the traitor that she was, she immediately run in our mother's direction.

"Oh, my sweet Nola."

Grabbing her from the armpits, my mother picked Nola up from the ground and cuddled with her.

Rubbing her cheek against Nola's, I could hear Nola's heartful giggle come from the distance.

"Are you jealous, Ren?"

My mother teasingly asked.

"Jealous?"

I shook my head and scoffed.

"I'm not jealous."

The edges of my mom's lips curled upwards.

"Aww, that's cute."

Putting Nola down, she proceeded to extend her hands in my direction.

"Come here, mama will also give you attention."

"...I'm good."

Taking off my shoes, and ignoring my mother, I proceeded to head for the living room.

Although I had my back turned on my mother, I could practically hear the sound of her heart shattering as I left.

This was a necessary evil, however.

The number of hugs and kisses that she had given me the past few days were enough to make me want to once again leave the human domain.

"Huh?"

Upon stepping into the living room, I was surprised to find a familiar figure sitting down.

Tilting my head, I spoke.

"What are you doing here?"

Tap. Tap. Tapping onto the screen of the tablet in her hand, Natasha casually glanced in my direction.

"Oh, you're back."

"...You didn't answer my question."

Sitting down on the opposite end of the sofa, I looked at Natasha with a skeptical look on my face.

Once again she ignored me.

"Aigooo, the technology has advanced so much in the fifteen years that I was asleep."

A look of frustration appeared on Natasha's face as she repeatedly tapped on the tablet in her hands.

'Looks like she is too busy trying to figure things out then to answer my question.'

After observing her for the last minute, I could more or less guess what was happening.

Ever since coming back from Issanor, Amanda had given her mother the room next to ours.

Since my mother was now no longer as busy with guild matters and Natasha had nothing else to do, they had both grown closer together. Hence why she was here.

"Freshly baked cookies coming up."

Entering the room holding onto a tray of freshly baked cookies was my mother.

The moment she entered the room, a sweet buttery scent permeated the room.

Catching a whiff of the scent, Natasha turned to look at my mother and pointed at the tablet.

"Samantha, help me out over here. How do you turn on the holographic function?"

"Oh, dear."

Putting the tray down on the table, my mother proceeded to sit down next to her.

Following her from behind was Nola who sat down on her lap. Leaning closer to Natasha, she began to explain.

"If you want to turn on the holographic function you need to press this button over here."

"This one?"

"Ye—"

Smack—!

A low-smacking sound resounded across the room.

Pointing her finger at Nola's hand which was reaching for the cookie, my mother scolded.

"No, Nola, you already had a lollipop, no more sweets for you."

"B..but.."

Taking her hand back, tears started to gather by the side of Nola's eyes.
