The two walked up to the front of the mansion, where Angela and the others were waiting.

It turned out that Wilfried and the Lienna would be joining them on this trip since the two needed to discuss the happenings of the Algreppa mountain range with the king.

After all, they had found a secret tunnelway that could be exploited if a war ever broke out with Vispia again.

It would no doubt become an extremely important strategic location.

Furthermore, they also had to discuss the happenings regarding the rank 6 beast with the king.

If that beast were to ever descend down the mountain range, the only fate awaiting those who crossed its path would be certain death.

The king needed to be ready to mobilize at any moment to deal with that threat personally, being a rank 6 mage himself.

Wilfried had already sent one of his trusted knights to inform the king the morning after Zen and Arvell returned, but he needed to come either way.

There was probably going to be a summit held to discuss their next actions.

The reason Wilfried and Lienna joined the kids was due to already anticipating such a summit.

Sure enough, they had received a messenger from the king that morning summoning all of the nobles count-rank and above.

Which naturally included the Silvercolt family, being a ducal house after all.

"Are you all set Arvell?" Lienna turned around and asked.

"Yes, I have finished packing all of my things," Arvell responded with a nod.

"Well, I guess it's time to set off then!" Angela excitedly announced.

Seeing this, Zen sighed.

"Sis, I understand that you're excited to see James again, but can you at least try to hide it a little?"

Angela's face went as red as a tomato.

"W-who said anything about James? I-I'm just excited to see everyone again!"

'This James person's probably the reason she seems quite restless to go.' Arvell thought to himself.

Hearing her daughter's desperate attempts to conceal her true emotions, Lienna's mouth curled up into a teasing smile.

"Ho? So you don't want to see James again? He'd probably be quite sad if he heard that…"

"W-what? I-it's not like I don't want to see him again…"

"So you are excited to see him again~" Lienna teased.

Wilfried sighed when he saw his wife bully his daughter.

"Lienna give her a break, it's not like you were any dif- EYAAAA"

Wilfried cried out in pain as Lienna stealthily pinched his sides.

"Hmm? What were you saying? H-O-N-E-Y~"

Seeing his wife's smile not quite reach her eyes, Wilfried felt a shiver go down his spine.

"N-nothing…"

'Sorry Angela, I did what I could. The rest is up to you'

All he could do at this point was offer a silent prayer for his daughter.

While Arvell felt that Wilfried should man up and face her, after all, even he didn't want to get on Lienna's bad side.

There were some people you just don't mess with…

The group all got into two carriages and they took off.

Since Reyna was already here, her parents decided to meet with her in the capital.

Since they had already heard about a potential summit from Wilfried, the Winstrel family had already made preparations to journey to the capital as well.

Since they were all going to the same place, Reyna decided to tag along with Zen.

Throughout the entire two week period, she spent most of her time stuck to Zen as if worrying that he might disappear the moment she took her eyes off of him.

Angela, Wilfried and Lienna were the same in that regard.

When they weren't busy doing work, they spent a lot of quality time with Zen.

The incident had left a shadow in their hearts.

After all, they almost lost their precious family member.

Most of the time people abducted like this never made it back.

While they never lost hope that he would come back, they didn't get their hopes too high.

They had problems sleeping and spent almost every waking moment trying to find signs of their lost son/brother. f𝑟𝑒ewe𝚋𝚗૦𝐯e𝘭.c𝗼𝓂

While his return was able to lighten their mood significantly, the shadow in their hearts still remained.

'What if he got taken again? What would we do? What could we even do?'

Such thoughts kept plaguing them.

Only by being near him and reaffirming his safety with their own eyes, could they rest easy.

Zen was of a similar mentality.

Being with those who care about him was able to make him feel safe again, letting him overcome his traumatic memories.

"Kyuuu!"

August looked out the carriage window and cried out in amazement.

"Auggie seems to be quite interested in the outside view. It's the first time he rode in a carriage after all." Reyna smiled.

'Auggie?'

Arvell cringed a little when he heard that nickname.

'Calling a dragon 'Auggie' seems… Kind of wrong? I feel like giving him a cute-sounding nickname wouldn't be good in the long run.' Arvell thought to himself.

Hearing Arvell's thoughts, Lykos looked at Arvell with a deadpan expression.

'You are the absolute last person who should be criticizing someone else's naming sense.'

'Fine, fine.'

August had gotten used to hearing Arvell and Lykos's telepathic communication over the past two weeks, so he no longer had a headache if the two ever spoke to each other.

While August did find it a little annoying at times, he could bear with it far better than before.

As they were leaving Talion, Arvell took one last glance at the statues of the royal family situated in the center of the city

"Lily… I'll see you soon."
