BXBX NOVEL Chapter 17 A Talk With Mom(2)
However, before he could sit on the bed, he heard another knock on the door. But the knock was the signature of a particular person.
Vincent smiled and said; "I\'m coming, mom."
The moment the words left his mouth, he hastily sprayed a cologne inside his room as the odor of the black goo that came out of his body was still lingering in the air. After spraying the cologne, he rushed towards the door and opened it.
When he opened the door, he could see Amelina staring at him with a big smile on her face. She was wearing a brown robe and a white scarf that was wrapped around her head. Her appearance didn\'t change a bit as she looked like she didn\'t age during the years.
"Don\'t just stare at me! Come and hug mommy ~" Amelina giggled and pulled Vincent into her embrace. At the same time, she entered his room and locked his door from behind.
Vincent was still resting his head on his mum\'s chest, he could feel her huge pair of marshmallows and nipples poking him, as she wasn\'t wearing any bra. However, Vincent didn\'t have any perverted thoughts towards his mom.
Amelina and Vincent stayed in the awkward position without saying a single word for about a minute. Amelina decided to break the silence and she cleared her throat and mumbled;
"Happy birthday, Vincent, I know that you might not want to celebrate your birthday this year because of what happened last week. You also have a lot to tell mommy, since when have you acquired a mana core? Because I was in your room last night and you didn\'t have it yesterday. But if you don\'t want to tell mommy, it\'s fine, mommy will understand. And about what occurred last week, I want you to get over it, okay. Now that you have a mana core, I\'ll send you to the mage academy along with Savina since I was given two slots there." Amelina muttered while she slowly patted Vincent\'s head and sat down on his bed while Vincent was still in her embrace.
Vincent tilted his head up a bit, as he heard his mother\'s words and he replied; "Mom~, you know, I\'m still heartbroken for what happened last week, how could she!?" Vincent whimpered and clenched his hands on his mother\'s robe.
Amelina\'s face twitched up when she heard her son lamenting and veins began to protrude on her forehead.
"Vincent dear, I would have killed her on the spot if it wasn\'t that you pleaded to spare her life. I have always treated her like my own daughter, unlike a slave. Even though she wasn\'t willing to marry you, she could have said it all these years! Why must it be on the ceremony day where thousands of people gathered? I\'m a bad mother for wanting to engage my son with a mere slave! I have told her to pack her belongings and never show her face again, you don\'t have to worry about getting conflicted by her presence. Besides, I may even kill her out of anger if I keep seeing her face and break the promise I made to you" Amelina clenched her teeth as she was only restricting herself from butchering Hilda because Vincent insisted on sparing her life.
Vincent became surprised by his mother\'s decision to kick out Hilda. Even after what she did to him, he still felt conflicted about his feelings for her, thus, it would be a surprise to him to hear about his mother\'s decision. However, he couldn\'t question his mom\'s authority and he was sure that Hilda could live off on her own as she was already a mage, a certified one that graduated from the mage academy of their kingdom. He sighed inwardly and hoped that he could see her in the future to find out the reason behind her actions.
"Mom, can you get me two maids?" Vincent suddenly asked.
Amelina\'s expression suddenly turned pale as Vincent asked one of the things that she didn\'t want him to ask. She swallowed hard and replied; "W-why do you need maids? Are the butlers not doing their job properly? Tell me, Vincent, so that I can punish them!" Amelina asked in a serious tone and prayed inwardly that Vincent should drop the idea of getting two maids.
"No mom, the butlers are doing their job properly. However, I feel weird around them. I can\'t stand the idea of old grumpy men bowing their heads to me here and there and calling me young master" Vincent replied and decided to skip the part where the butlers mocked him of his talent, as Vincent was only good at reading books in the library and sketching out maps and charts for people in return for money. To say the least, Vincent had a small business and was quite rich for a person who had no talent for swordsmanship or mana core for magic, which made Zadicus and some people to be enraged, as they couldn\'t imagine in their lifetime that a weakling could make such a huge amount of money at a young age.
Amelina sighed deeply and decided to tell her son the truth as she saw that he wasn\'t going to back down.
"Vincent, you see, I met your father 25 years ago. At that time, I was abandoned by my husband with three kids. The truth was that he never died but he fled after owning a ruthless merchant, a huge amount of money, leaving me stranded with three kids. Zadicus was 5 years old, Arthur was three, and Savina was just two months old at the time. The merchant kicked me and my children out of our house and sold it to cover his loss for my husband\'s debt. As a young woman, I was conflicted and in despair, as I slept in the streets with little kids and an infant in my arms during the winter. It was a bad experience that I couldn\'t take it anymore and decided to commit suicide. However, as I was about to slit my neck, inside the stable that I resided with my children, a young man suddenly caught my hand and stopped me from killing myself. He was the most handsome man I have ever seen and thus, our journey began there. He married me with all my kids and took care of us, he was the most caring man in the world. We love each other with no bounds and would do anything for each other. However, I couldn\'t conceive after our marriage, which always makes me feel bad. After 7 years, I finally got pregnant with you and It was the happiest day of my life. I ran home to tell him the good news, however, I only met a letter at home informing me that he had gone to war with the neighboring kingdom that was trying to take over Graven.
He was a general, so he had to go. I waited for several months with a bulge in my stomach but he never sent any message. On a certain day, he was suddenly brought home with all his limbs missing, he was in a near-death condition. However, he insisted on seeing me before taking his last breath. He told me to get you engaged as soon as you were born, I didn\'t know the reason why he said that but I made a promise to him. He also gave me a second option to do if I fail to get you married before the age of 17 or else you might die pathetically as he died, but I can\'t tell you now, Vincent. Now, that Hilda betrayed you, I can\'t tell you the second option because your broken mind might not be able to process everything and it would be a very shameful thing. Because he insists on you taking over all his legacy and what he left behind. I-I think I have to go now~" Amelina mumbled as tears rolled down her eyes. She separated herself from Vincent and kissed him on his forehead, before leaving his room in haste with tears in her eyes.
Vincent who saw his mother leave in tears felt bad for her and became more curious about his father. His mother had never shown him any pictures of him and always avoided talking about it anytime he asked, which further confused him.
He shook his head and lay down on his bed, seemingly pondering over a thought.
.....
Meanwhile, while Amelina walked out of Vincent\'s room, her heart was racing and beating rapidly.
"Lancelot, now that our son has failed to get married before 17, I\'m about to do the second option you gave me. This is the most shameful thing, Lancelot, must he also claim me. I\'m his mother for God\'s sake! how will he look at my face when he learns about the fetishes of your family, he doesn\'t even have an erection when feeling my breasts. My poor son~" Amelina clenched her fists and cried as she entered her room.
At the same time, Someone was silently watching Amelina walking out of her son\'s room with tears in her eyes.
