Chapter 173: After Alviheim

( Days after returning. ) 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝐞𝐥.𝗻𝗲𝐭

[ Location: NeoCare Hospital ]

" Oh, you came! " Donovan is so surprised in his room, acting medicated as his Mom and Dad finally came to where he was medicated.

" Donnie! " Irina shouts as she meets him, she hugged Donovan so tight, it squeezes him.

" MOM! " Donovan shouts as the hug is too much, for his mother is physically strong to begin with.

" Well, your mother really missed you, isn't she? " Duncan says as he also comes in while drinking some milk.

" 'Manaltine' (Mana Ovaltine) is good, such delicacy of the perfect Mana-pasteurization milk." Duncann slurps it, he drinks that chocolate Magic Milk, and he really enjoys it after getting home.

As he comes in, sitting on the nearby chair as he lets his son gets hugged by his wife for a moment, he knew this would happen for Irina already missed Donovan since the first time they enter Alviheim.

"( I remembered she constantly crying over Donovan and Adria on our first arrival. )" Duncan remembers the moment, he knows this as he often checks her condition in order to observe her very condition.

" Donnie, sorry my sonny-boy, sorry that mommy wasn't able to visit you for a long time, mommy is- " Irina says to Donovan while crying, hugging him even tighter as Donovan's face gets immersed in her chest.

"( Can't breathe... )"

" Mommy has been busy rescuing your Grandpa Hector and then had to deal with other things after we returned from Alviheim too! "

" Mommy really missed you, during those times, Mommy missed you and Adria! " Irina cries while hugging Donovan so tight, she hugs Donovan in front of other patients there.

"( Thank goodness Carlos and Carol already checked out days before they came, or else they, especially Carol, would run their mouth regarding this in the academy. )"

"( But above all that, I'm really fortunate that Mr. Arthur Cali-brat didn't stay longer in this place and just leave doing his things, whatever it is, hell I don't wanna know. )" Donovan says to himself as he enjoyed his time with his parents.

He talked about everything that happened, from the Elf Invasion over the Prodigal Academy and his medication here, he told them everything despite not telling his 'Draven' story parts.

" Wait, 'Draven' was the one who saved you all!? " Irina asks as she hears it.

" Yeah, Mom he was so cool and great, he defeated all of the Elves...hahaha... " Donovan tells her.

"( Well, 'Draven' defeated them with the 'Black Shadows', actually, but... )"

" By the way Mom, you knew that 'Draven' guy? " Donovan asks Irina.

After he asks her, Irina went silent after hearing it, she bows her head down, and her hands are shaken while still hugging Donovan.

" 'Dra...ven...' " Irina says while her fingers strongly gripped Donovan while unleashing her Dragon Aura in the open.

"( Oh no. )" both Duncan and Donovan say as it happens.

Duncan looks at Donovan, he didn't say anything but his face simply means "Why are you asking your mom about 'Draven'? ", Donovan replies with an expression that means "Oh, you knew him too? ", despite we all know Donovan is lying about it to hide it all from his father.

As Donovan replies to his father, his mother Irina then finally says something after being silent for a while.

" Oh yes, sonny-boy... "

" I knew who he is, that little-masked bastard who just burned your father out of nowhere. " Irina tells Donovan while her hands grip his back.

In her rage, she tries to contain it but still some of the unleashed leaks of it can be felt by the others, not only her rage but her muscles also seems going into combat mode, as Donovan could feel her mother's body getting harder while giving him a pat.

" Mommy would never forgive him, Donovan. " Irina says while hugging Donovan even tighter, her hands are getting stronger, and it presses Donovan too hard.

" Mommy swears to you if I see that mask again, mommy will use the dragon power to teach him a lesson, killing him if mommy has to," she says in the public.

"( Oh my god. )" Duncan says while letting out his tongue.

"( Really now, dear... )"

"( He saved me, you know... )" Duncan thinks in his mind, but Irina who has already made up her mind, says it without hesitation while unknowingly hurting Donovan as he hugs her so tight, it squeezes him.

< CRIT HIT >

< HP -55.000 >

"( Dammit, Mom! )" Donovan says as he felt this.

"( You must be hated 'Draven' so much, didn't you? )" Donovan says to himself.

"( Look at you, you're actually killing 'Draven' right now, with your arms. )" Donovan as 'Draven' himself says as he felt the crushing hug from his mother.

" Umm, Mom? " Donovan asks for he couldn't hold it anymore, he could feel his muscles couldn't hold it anymore.

As Donovan says that, Irina quickly stops and apologizes which she releases Donovan as the boy really coughs hard after being pressed so hard with her hug, it felt like being squished.

( After some time. )

[ Inside the car. ]

" Where is sister right now? " Donovan asks his parents, wondering if Adria is alright and who is taking care of her when the three of them are unavailable.

" Adria is with our Houses' maids, guarded by them before we both left to rescue your grandfather, Donnie. " Irina answers him.

" But still, after we come home, Mom and Dad still going to have more things to do regarding our situation after the Elven Attack. " Irina says.

" The Elysium Haven Council has spoken that our House is still alright to maintain its power, but despite our won to defend our position, there are still those who still trying to take down our House as they wait for their chances. " Irina explains.

" Like the Vermillion House. " Duncan adds.

" We heard from them that they are one of the people who is taking the opportunity during your grandfather's abduction. "

" But ironically, the Council also told us that despite those other Houses wanting to overthrow the Richter House, suddenly, most of their leaders vanished without a trace... " Duncan says.

" Vanished without a trace? " Donovan asks Duncan.

"( Guees my Black Shadows had done their work pretty great, this means I have lesser targets that could overthrow the Richter House now. )" Donovan says for he remembers the tasks he gave to his Black Shadows before raiding the Vermillion House and even go to Alviheim*.

As Donovan thinks about it, Duncan still continues to talk about whatever he found while helping Irina talk things with the Elysium Haven Council.

" Well, that's all that we could get for now. "

" Next, I'm probably going to find out regarding some of our enemy houses' disappearance, but before that,... " Duncan says as he phones their car's driver to take them to a restaurant.

" Why don't we three have some things to eat? " Duncan offers for this is going to be his treat for he is really hungry right now and he says that after dealing with so many problems, the best way to ease it is to eat delicious foods.

" I would like to, thanks Dad! " Donovan says as their car now goes to their destined restaurant.

While the car is going off, from afar, the Black Merchant sees them as he sits on the roof, watching them as he eats his meal.

"( Hmmm... if I had this kind of moment quite longer back then. )" he says to himself.
