BXBX NOVEL Chapter 268 My Room
Anna didn\'t have permission to go to the terrace and the reason... the whole place was mine.
"So? How\'s it?" Mom asked with a bright smile on her face as we looked around this big~ room.
"Mom... I\'m speechless..."
This was amazing, genuinely amazing. Super~ amazing.
The whole terrace, from this room with a big~ library, a small, workshop, a room filled with some amazing weapons, a big~ bathroom, with a big~ bathtub, an alchemy lab, and the outside of this room being an open place for training, and a small garden.
This place was already big~ but they used spatial magic to make it even bigger.
Even the library here is perfect. Not as big as the one downstairs, but the books here... they were just the thing I wanted.
This was the history of the whole world, the latest one and not far older, till sorted out papers of recent events.
The magic and theoretic books of current times, the trends, novels, and academics.
All those things were here, in one place, on these bookshelves.
The equipment in this place was even better than the ones downstairs.
Even the complicated things that were only in dad\'s lab were here.
The outside training area was big enough for me to train how I liked.
The weapons for training were great too, and they were just the training weapons.
We had the armory here too, but it was on the underground floor, and she assured me there were some really~ good things.
There was also an office room before all this as soon as we enter here, and when seeing that normal place, you wouldn\'t think there could be something this amazing behind just one of the doors of the office.
A room full of diverse materials for enchanting, alchemy, magic, and magic engineering was also here.
And after all that... there was a kitchen, too. A small but amazing one.
There were almost tears in my eyes as I looked at this room, my own room.
I just hugged her as I looked at all of this place.
I thought it would be a special place if they restricted Anna from coming here so I didn\'t check but, now that I was seeing all this with her like this... I can\'t help but admire this place.
Every one of us had our special rooms for work or for some other stuff like dad\'s and uncle\'s labs, aunty\'s tea room, Carla\'s special underground training room, and Alf had half of his home filled with his books and papers, from what she said.
And this, this whole place, was my special place.
And she made all this just for me.
My awesome mom...
"Yes, yes. I knew you would love this~. It would be best if you explore this room by yourself and... I heard you requested sir Victor to bring someone to meet you~?
Hehehe... have you already found some amazing talent?"
She was just the cheerful mom that I remembered. And she was also as smart as ever.
"You already know, don\'t you, mom? Well, yes~. He is good and he can do amazing if taught properly~."
Her eyes shined with surprise and we both chuckled at the same time.
She was a sharp person, and she was a merchant at heart. As well as a wonderful mom so, she knew what I would be thinking as her child, in most cases at least.
And she could guess from the way I said that last thing, I had my own plans.
Nodding with a delightful smile on her place, she took a step back and looked at me, from head to toe.
She had a warm and helpless look on her face, and I can\'t help my bitter smile at this.
"It… was a long time, right?
From the child to the brave boy I saw the last time... to this young, grown-up boy.
I didn\'t get much time to play with my dear son and now, he will become an adventurer like his dad...
And I will be helpless again..."
Warmly looking at me for a while, she sighed with a bitter smile and looked back into my eyes with a warmer smile.
"But now... I know you will come back from whatever place you go... with your dear \'friend\', right?"
She smirked, and I shook my head with a genuinely radiant smile.
She wanted to tease me but, not this time, mom. And the clear, confident, and glad expression on my face was all she needed.
"Haaa... ok. I should go now. That child will be here soon and my poor work is waiting for me.
Have a nice day Eon~."
She was as cheerful as ever and she turned back to leave after I nodded with a smile but, then she turned back, walked towards me, and… gave me a forehead kiss.
The motherly warmth in her sad, happy, and lovely eyes was one of a kind, and I could only smile back at my dear mom.
"Have a nice day, too, mom~."
She nodded and walked out of the room in a radiant mood.
She was happy to finally be able to show me this place, and I was happy to have this wonderful place all to myself, too.
\'Just amazing...\'
Even the rooms in the tower couldn\'t be compared to the actual emotional values of this place.
This was my own room, unlike the tower, which was ours as a whole.
I didn\'t have a special room like this one there and that made this place even more amazing.
And this was my place. I can modify it however I wanted.
And I already knew I would just love to do that.
Thankfully, seeing and knowing everything about this room didn\'t take much time with my third eye and (: Scan), and I now knew all the things about this place.
And as I guessed, there was a secret room. But we can see that one some other day.
I had one hour before we go out and... there was a knock on the door of the entrance to this room.
And naturally, there was an excited smile on my face.
\'A pure knight... let me glance inside that mind of yours~.\'
***
"Master Axion, I brought Chryses as you asked for." The vice-captain announced after the knock and I had finished decorating the teapot, cups, and snacks on the table.
"Come in~," I answered with a cheerful voice and picked up a teacup and a small plate with a slice of my special chocolate cake.
The door opened and the image of the boy with dark hair and dull golden eyes, filled with hesitation and uncertainty, entered my eyes.
Their eyes met mine and the smile on my face assured the uncertain vice-captain.
He was caring and he at least knew I was a reliable, good, and strong person from the things he heard from his captain.
So he was alright with me talking to one of his trainees like this.
With the same smile, I nodded at him and walked toward him and after he greeted me with a bow, I handed him the plate and the teacup.
He didn\'t understand what I was doing at first but then, when he understood, a shocked expression covered his face.
His black eyes widened, and he couldn\'t contain this genuine surprise.
"M-master Axion... h-how could I?"
And this cracking voice coming from his side was truly something surprising…
He was a [Rank-5] and had a special Aura characteristic of solid type.
He was also someone with some untold secrets so I was really interested in him but, his real cracking voice told me he was a genuinely \'good\' person.
So I just smiled and handed the refreshments to him, as I requested the boy to come in and sit down on the couch by the table with the teacup and snacks.
The vice-captain was surprised by the forceful behavior but, he didn\'t have to worry about anything with me.
"I made them so I know they are good~ and I hope you do like this~!"
After hearing that I was the one to make these, he couldn\'t say no to this delicious-looking cake and tea with a sweet aroma.
"Thank you... master Axion."
He bowed once again and took a step back. And then he moved to the left side of the hallway with many waiting sofas and chairs.
Though he tried to hide this, I knew he was excited as soon as he heard I was the one to make this.
Well, I knew he will definitely enjoy this, so I had nothing to worry about.
I closed the door behind me and... turned to the boy, who just looked down with uncertain, fear-filled eyes.
But in those eyes... aside from fear and uncertainty, there was also excitement and reverence.
