Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons! - Volume 16 - Chapter 6

Chapter 6

Sweet Home (Part 3)

“Aah . ” I sunk into the elven lake water and let out a soothing sigh .

Mommy Vyvyan, who was behind me, gently hugged me and caressed my body as she did in the past with a smile . I stretched my hands out to feel the flowing water brush against them . It was an interesting feeling to me . I had never experienced the feeling of elven running water . Due to my berserk mana condition in the past, I was unable to feel anything in the water . Thankfully, the condition no longer plagued me; therefore, I could feel the gentle flowing water, and I could feel the warmth and soft touch behind me .

Mom rubbed my hair and then kissed my head . In a quiet voice, she remarked, “We have not had a bath together in a long time, Son . ”

“Yeah, it’s been a long time, but this is the first time I’ve felt flowing elven water in addition to warmth and comfort . ”

I smiled . I then looked at the water running down my hand . I had adapted to life in this world, yet it felt novel to me .

Mommy Vyvyan touched my head: “Sorry, Son . Your condition in the past… was my fault . ”

“No, of course it isn’t your fault . Mom, you gave me a life . How can it be your fault?”

“That’s why it’s Elizabeth’s fault . Had she not ditched you after giving birth to you, you wouldn’t have suffered so much . Thus, it’s Elizabeth’s fault!”

“It’s not…”

“Son, are you going to speak up for her even now? Have you forgotten what you once went through? Have you forgotten the pain you suffered when you were a child? Remember, Elizabeth gave birth to you, only to abandon you and run away . Everything you suffered thereafter was her fault! It was all her fault!”

Mommy Vyvyan and Mommy Elizabeth still couldn’t put their past behind them . I had adjusted and recovered, yet they still wouldn’t forget the past . Mommy Elizabeth would feel guilty, but Mommy Vyvyan would reprimand Elizabeth for the latter’s past deeds . She hated Elizabeth for abandoning me even till today . To be fair, though, if Mommy Elizabeth didn’t leave me behind, Mommy Vyvyan wouldn’t have had the chance to give birth to me . Without what transpired, I would be humanity’s Prince .

Mommy Vyvyan was evidently cross . I turned my head around to look into her eyes . I helplessly smiled: “Mom, I haven’t finished . I was trying to say I didn’t suffer as much as you think . You took care of me in the past, so it wasn’t that bad . To the contrary, I feel happy about it because you were by my side . ”

Mommy Vyvyan clearly didn’t expect to hear what I said . Beaming, she gently caressed my head: “Son, you’ve always been such a sweet talker from the past until now . While elves don’t consider it a virtue, Mommy admits Mommy likes your sweet talk . ”

I must clarify I never deliberately thought of smooth lines . Maybe it was Troy’s gift for me . It was only natural he had a unique quality if he could win everyone’s affection . He, supposedly, was a cute kid . Consequently, if he was also adept with words, it was only natural for everyone to like him, agreed?

Mom kissed my forehead . I could clean myself just by dipping in water owing to my scales . As opposed to calling it a bath, you might as well say that Mom and I were reliving the feeling of being intimate with each other again .

Mommy Vyvyan stood up . She grabbed a towel from the side and wiped down her perfect body . I climbed up to shore and then shook my body out . Water didn’t leave marks on my body . They were the same as water droplets on a window pane . Mommy Vyvyan picked up her sleepwear from the side…

Honestly, I always felt sleepwear in the elven lands was sensual sleepwear .   It was thin and barely covered much . There was only one button that went across the chest . It was similar to a cicada’s wings when the wearer outstretched their arms . The wearer’s legs are also exposed .

Mommy Vyvyan flicked her blonde hair then opened the door . The maid outside bowed before she served up fruit and fruit juice . Mom grabbed a fruit skewer and a cup of fruit juice . She draped a shawl over to stay warm . I, too, took a bite of a piece of fruit . Then, I had a drink of fruit juice and made my way into the corridor . I heard hasty footsteps approaching us .

“We have finished preparing; we have finished the preparations! Your Highn-, Ah, argh!!”

Before I could stop her, Mom generated a fierce gale with a wave of her hand, sending the elder reeling . As anger flitted across her face, she imposingly blustered, “How rude! Nobody is allowed in here at night . What are you here for?!”

“Your Highness… we have completed the task you asked of us… The cage you asked for… is ready!”

“Shut up!” Vyvyan waved her hand again . Something invisible clinched the elder and pressed him up against the wall . The guards quickly held him down . Mom pivoted around and pulled my arm with one hand . She ordered, “Take him away . If there’s business, tell me tomorrow morning . You are not allowed into the imperial palace at night . Now, take him away!”

“Yes, Your Highness!” The guards hastily took the elder away .

Man, he probably broke something after suffering those blows at his age . That must’ve been why he was taken away without a word . I was curious about what he wanted to report . Did he help Mommy Vyvyan do something, I wondered .  I queried, “Mom, is something the matter?”

“No . ”

“If there’s something urgent, you don’t need to worry about me and just attend to your work, instead . Don’t neglect work for my sake . ”

Mom wrapped her arms around me and stroked my head: “I said: there’s nothing . Mommy doesn’t have any urgent business . The most urgent task at hand is to look after my son, so don’t worry, Son . Mommy won’t go . Mommy won’t go anywhere . ”

“Really…? Okay, then . ”

Come to think of it, there shouldn’t haven been any problems in the elven lands… It was peaceful there, after all .

My exhaustion soon put my lights out .

At midnight…

“You’ve prepared the equipment, right? I told you not to let my son know about it . Fortunately, he’s asleep . Since you’ve prepared everything, let’s get going . We’re going to capture all of the white deer in one night!” commanded Vyvyan .
