Chapter 267: Chapter 267 Supper.



After a brilliant light gathered around the three girls who endured the pain that wreaked havoc in their minds. The light that shone like a miracle itself brought change upon the three girls who lost their limbs.

From their lost limbs, a transparent figure of a hand began to take form before it solidified and turned into a normal hand.

The three girls' complexions were gradually getting better as the pain and fear that engulfed their minds disappeared.

Soma also sighed in relief, and his feet suddenly lost their strength as he flopped down to the ground.

The sizzling bolts that crawled around his skin disappeared, and he returned to his normal state, which was weakened and full of wounds.

After recklessly activating his Oni Wrath in his critical state, once his mind calmed down, it began to slip away. His sigh started to flicker, and gradually, it turned heavier before he lost consciousness.

"Soma!".

Lucy, who saw him unconscious, fell into a panic state, whereas Violet hurriedly caught him in her hands before he slammed to the floor.

"Miss Lucy, please cast healing magic upon Him too. It seemed his internal organs were rupturned".

"Okay!".

With the news from Violet, Lucy starts her use of Perfect Heal to heal the wound in Soma' sSoma's body instantly. The pale face he had gradually turned rosy, and his breathing turned normal.

Hina, Xiao Lian, and Serafina slowly got up from their lying position and saw Soma lying unconscious on Violet Hands. Their faces started to turn white.

"Soma".

Simultaneously, the three of them gathered around him, almost overwhelming Violet, who held him in their hands. Lucy started fidgeting, trying to stop them for some reason.

"What was the commotion about? What, why did our house have this hole?!".

The sound of Beatrice's awakening brought every person in the room's attention to her. She stiffened like a statue, looking at the hole that sent a gust of wind through the room.

"Um, Mom you might not believe this, but".

"Sera, what happened please explain it to me".

Serafina began to talk about what was happening in the mansion. She told her mother everything, including the demon's appearance, unconscious state, and Soma, who fought the demon but failed to kill it.

"I see, how was Soma's condition?".

"He is fine, Madame. He only needs a bit of rest".

Violet interjected while showing Soma, who sounded asleep in her hands.

"Bring him to his room and change his clothes".

"Understood".

After that, the servants who are sleeping within time slowly regain their consciousness one by one. They begin to get briefed by Beatrice about what happened, and all of them feel great fear but also awe toward Soma, who tries to chase away the demon who threatened them.

"Everyone, I implore you to help with this. Now go back to your station, and for a while, please fix this wall."

"Understood madam".

***

Slowly, within the comfort of darkness and the vague feeling of waking up, Soma, with his heavy eyelids fluttering open, saw a familiar ceiling.

Beside him, he could hear a melodic humming that soothed his heart. He turned to the side and found Madame Beatrice busy knitting a red thread into a long cloth that she folded on her lap.

Soma tensed the muscles around his body and found nothing strange. But because of that, Beatrice noticed him and stopped her hands.

"Soma, you awake?".

"Yes".

Beatrice put aside the tool she held and approached the bedside to help him to sit. Soma gave his thanks as Beatrice began to pour water into a glass cup and presented it to him.

"You must be thirsty, drink this first!".

"Thank you very much!".

Soma slid aside his feet, letting it touch the floor, and then he received the cup with both hands before he gulped the content in one go. Still feeling unsatisfied, he asked to give him another cup, and after he emptied the silver kettle, he finally could sigh in relief.

Because of the water, his body feels invigorated, and he is ready to do his activity. He is wearing loose sleepwear that he is unaware of, probably the clothes from Serafina's father.

"How long have I been asleep?".

"It was a full day. I am glad you awoke soon because if you don't, I plan to call an ambulance to take you to the hospital."

"Ahaha, thank you".

Soma truly felt relief in his heart, for he was waking right now. He cast his gaze around, and this was indeed his room.

"Um, Madame..".

"No, no, no…".

Beatrice playfully tilted her index finger to the side while saying 'No' in rhyme. She soon spread her mouth while gazing at Soma tenderly.

Soma, on the other hand, feels a great sense of deja vu. Her smile resembled Serafina so much when she decided to tease Soma.

"I heard you are dating my daughter, am I wrong?".

Her meaningful grin made Soma loosen his guard and made him feel helpless.

"Um, yes. I am".

"I see, so from now on, don't call me madame, call me Mother!".

The sudden suggestion from Beatrice caught Soma off guard, and he blanked for a moment. But upon looking at her playful but also serious attitude, it seemed his path had been sealed from any direction.

Soma gulped his saliva. He didn't realize why, but his body started to fidget when he tried to call her mother. He tried to activate his Skill to hold off the embarrassed emoticon that started to sprout in his chest, but he decided against it.

"Mo-mother!".

"Fufu, Finally, I have a son. Yes, Soma".

Beatrice's facial muscles started to loosen. She never thought that she could hear that from her daughter's boyfriend. The truth is she adores a boy child, but with her illness that gnawed at her for years, she couldn't make it happen.

However, suddenly, her body stiffened upon directing her gaze at him. A single tear travelled down Soma's left cheek.

"What's the matter sweetheart?".

"Eh?".

Soma himself seemed not to realize it. The tears that started to spill began to stream down both of his cheeks. He didn't know why, but after he called the figure before him, who looked at him tenderly, Mother.

"Soma".

"I'm sorry, I was just reminded of my long deceased parents".

When Beatrice saw Soma like that, she couldn't help but stand from her seat. She then embraced him tenderly while also caressing his trembling back.

From the story of what her daughter shared yesterday and the blood that smeared his clothes, she couldn't imagine. The child, who still hadn't lived a quarter of his life, had to shoulder a heavy burden on himself and the other, whom he held dear.

Also, the matter about his parents, who are long gone, leaving him alone in this cruel world, brings forth her grief.

Slowly, she tightened the embrace, which soon made Soma couldn't hide his sob and cry in her embrace.

"Let it out Son! You are my son from now on and forever".

"...".

Soma cried louder as Beatrice kept calming him down like a mother soothing her kid.

Beyond the door in the room where, the door was slightly cracked open, leaving a big enough gap for eyes to look inside and hear what had transpired inside.

Hina, Xiao Lian, and Serafina, who intend to visit Soma's room, halted in place and, with red eyes, slowly clenched their fist and slightly stepped away from the door.

For the first time ever since they had known Soma, the three of them saw him crying. Soma, who always stood brave in every enemy he faced, stood firm in the principles he held. Also, Soma, who would do everything to keep everyone close to him safe, was showing his weak side.

From the cry, they could feel how much grief he held within years of loneliness without his parents and his struggle to survive on the planet.

The three of them started to cry. They couldn't imagine how heavy the burden he was carrying on his shoulder was. The three of them silently cried in the corner of the room for a while.

Hina, who awoke from her grief, slapped hard her cheeks that jolted both Xiao Lian and Serafina. They saw red marks on her swollen cheeks.

"I guess, we should prepare something for supper today".

Xiao Lian and Serafina, stand dumbfounded seeing the bright smile on Hina's face, despite her looks. However, thanks to that, the two of them also rose from their feet and followed her back to the kitchen.

That day, when Soma came out from his room, everyone in the place celebrated his awaking and held a supper with many dishes that were made by Hina and the chefs in the house.

Everyone was having fun, savoring the dish while joking as one big family. Hina, Xiao Lian and Serafina. The three of them were always staying near Soma, not wanting to be separated, and talking to him, trying to learn more about him.

Looking at his calm and caring smile, they swore in their hearts never to let Soma carry that heavy burden alone.
