Chapter 219 Huh!?
"Why are laughing?" Fey stuck out her tongue and pouted.
Fein was stunned. It's been a long time since his sister acted cute. 'When is the last time?'
"Since we already started eating. Let's begin our minor celebration!" He walked to the kitchen and brought the dishes to the table.
Melissa quickly helped her son to carry the plates. This time, she saw several unfamiliar dishes.
Fein cooked a lot of foods that he thinks are delicious in his past life. Braised pork, bibimbap, ramen, etc... Yes, it is composed of different cuisine because every one of them offers a unique taste. After all, he's the type of person that has few biases.
Just like that, the three of them ate with relish and a smile on their face
"Don't the two of you want to accompany me to the church of the Sun Goddess this Sunday?" Melissa said while chewing.
Fey and his brother shook their heads at the same time.
Melissa sighed with this, "You know, you have to go to church so that Goddess would bless us."
'Nope, gods are just higher beings that have powerful strengths. What worship, what blessing. They might not even give a fuck about us,' Fein thought secretly.
Of course, he believes in God. Even more, after he got transmigrated. But what does it have to do with him? He's a busy person, and he doesn't have time for that. For him, he didn't need to go to heaven or hell as long as he didn't die. And if he becomes a powerful being in the future, why not just create his own dimension that solely belongs to him?
"I'm busy... By the way, I've applied for early graduation." Fey said and stared at her mother nervously.
In the past few weeks, she thought about it. Fey doesn't want to study anymore and live like a normal person after the incident she encountered. She realized that in this world; she needed strength to protect herself and her brother. Plus, if she becomes strong enough in the future, and climbs on the ranks in the Ranger's Eye. Money won't become a problem at that time, right? Gregory even told her that the current income of his brother had already exceeded that of gold-collar jobs!
"What did you say!?" The fork in Melissa's hand fell on the floor. She looked at her daughter in shock and disbelief.
Fein tilted his head to the drama that was about to happen. 'So she finally decided?' he doesn't have any opinion about this. In fact, he's happy with her sister's decision. What would she learn in the school from the medieval period, anyway? He could call the skills and knowledge in this world outdated. And degu users had a high status than anyone could imagine. Even if degu users want to work in a prominent position in any kind of profession, people would prioritize them.

Fey gave her brother a grateful look, then turned her head at her mother, who calmed down a little after Fein persuaded her. Fey inhaled deeply as she prepared the excuses she had thought of in the past few weeks.
"I already learned all available knowledge the School had to offer. Now, even the Library in school can't provide me much stimulation."
"..."
Melissa and Fein looked stunned. They didn't expect to hear such an arrogant comment from Fey.
"Hahaha! as expected of my sister!" Fein laughed boisterously. Of course, he can't replicate the same thing without the system. "Don't worry, I'll teach you."
Fein was quite confident with his knowledge after sweeping the Library in the whole 'San Fernando' country and other neighboring countries.
"You?" Melissa woke up from her state and looked at her son suspiciously. "What would you teach to her? Medicine? That's a different field from her." she sighed. Then she paused for a little before continuing, "Are you sure about that? It's not a problem for me as long as you know what you're doing. You're already at an age where you can marry."
"Cough," Fein didn't expect her mother to include marriage in the conversation. Yes, in the San Fernando country sixteen and above can already marry. Different from Earth, they're already of legal age after they step at the age of sixteen.
Fey covered her face with shame. "Mom, you're too advanced. I just want to graduate early, but not to marry."
"You too! Don't give me that..." Melissa glared at Fein, "How many years had passed but you didn't even introduce any girls to me."
Fein became speechless, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Before he could even gather his thoughts. Melissa continued her fierce attacks.
"Are you sure there's no problem with you?" Melissa glanced at Fein up and down. "If then, don't worry, I can accept it." She said worriedly.
"Mom, my thing is functioning properly! Also, I don't bend that way! I'm a full straight alpha male!" Fein took a deep breath. His dignity as a man was tarnished. This is unacceptable! So he scrunched his expression into a pained one and said unwillingly. "I didn't plan to say this. But now..."
"Say what?" Melissa heaves a sigh of relief after she confirmed that her son could still give her a grandson and granddaughters. Fey, on the other hand, just kept eating while watching with interest. As if she wasn't part of the conversation earlier.
Seeing his sister, Fein couldn't help but praised her skill in extricating herself from the conversation.
"Well, since you're that worried. I would confess." Fein closed his eyes. "I have a girlfriend."
"..."
Fey spit the food in her mouth.
"Say what?" Melissa blinked and asked with suspicion.
"I have a girlfriend!" Fein took a deep breath and shouted.
"Huh!? Then why did you just tell that to us now!?" Melissa went beside her son and held his hand excitedly.
Fey cleaned up the mess on the floor, but she would stare at her brother with suspicion from time to time.
"Because my girlfriend is a rich lady. And we didn't reach that stage yet." Fein said warily.
