Magical Love: Learn To Love In Another World

Chapter 100: Home Sweet Home Part Two

We rode the carriage to the main entrance which it did feel good to get off my feet after such a long trip. When we entered the mansion, Ruth and Cedric were already standing there waiting for us. "It is good to see that all of you came back safe and sound."

I could feel that the two of them were truly relieved that we were safe and sound. "It has been a long journey, sorry to worry you Mom, Dad." I said while giving them a smile. Although I was extremely tired, I still gave them my best smile. 

"We are back, Mom, Dad" Able said.

But it seemed Ruth could tell I was really tired. We were all really tired. "Since you all have had a long trip why don't you girls go on ahead and get cleaned up. Sam, Able come here for a moment."

When I heard the word bath my eyes lit up. It had been so long since I had a nice hot bath. Although some of the floors we were on allowed us to wash up in a river or pond, the water was also ice cold which was not very pleasing. And it was not just the cold water that made us rush either, the threat of monsters attacking us was also something we had to watch out for. So even if it was warm, we would only get maybe a few more minutes which was not long enough! A bath must be something one can relax in and enjoy for as long as the water was warm!

After Rei, Marsil, and Alissa went to go clean up, Sam was taken by Grandpa Lutz to his new place of residence and Able was left to speak with his parents. "So what happened?" 

"The entire first floor was a trap room and the ceiling came down and blocked off our exit. We had no other choice but to make our way down to the first boss. It was rough, but we made it all the way to the thirtieth floor where the mid boss was. I am just happy to be home. But this was definitely a learning experience and I also gained something that might have taken a lot longer than a mere seven months." Able explained. When he remembered the first time Rei said the words 'I love you', he couldn't help but soften his gaze and smile. 

"So I am guessing your relationship with Rei has really improved?" Ruth asked her eyes glowing. she had caught the subtle change in her son's expression.

"Mmm We have finally confessed our love for each other. I can now rightfully say Rei is my fiancee, not out of duty but out of love. She has finally said she loves me." Able replied.

"Good! She will be turning fourteen soon and she will come of age a year later. So we will have your engagement ceremony, on the same day as her birthday, so we can announce to the world this is your fiancee, the next madam of the Ronstine family! I know Rei would not want something so elaborate for her birthday, but, if it is an engagement party she won't be able to deny me the right to make it a big ordeal." Ruth knew Rei wouldn't want her birthday to be a huge event but if they added in the announcement of her and Able's engagement in a formal announcement.

I couldn't help but let out a relaxing sigh as the hot water of the bath made all my fatigue melt away. To my right was Marsil and to my left was Alissa. "Rei is this the friend you were talking about?"

"Mhm That reminds me. Alissa, I have a gift for you when we get out of the bath. I hope you will like it." I said as I slid under the water allowing my whole head to be submerged. I was truly relaxed right now.

"Wait! Rei! What is it!? Why did you go underwater!? Tell me!"

I could hear Alissa calling my name asking me what it was that I was going to give her but the water felt very nice to the point that I felt tired. I guess it would be a good idea to get out of the bath now Raising my head above the water I shook my head and wiped my eyes as I stood up. "You will find out in a bit after we get changed."

I could see the anticipation in Alissa's eyes which I found this side of her was quite cute. Although her image as a female lead had been completely wrecked after she became one of my love interests. She was still a cute girl after all. I did hope in the future she will find someone who can truly love her for who she was. But no matter what, it would not change the fact that Alissa will always be my precious friend.

After getting changed, Alissa waited patiently as I pulled out an object from my bag that I had taken with me on my trip to the dungeon and handed it over to Alissa. When her eyes fell on it, she gasped in surprise. "This is an abacus!? "

"Mhm. It has the ability to give a special buff based on a random calculation. I figured since you are a merchant's daughter you would be able to use it. It dropped from the mid boss of the dungeon. I hope maybe it can be of some use." I replied. I was a bit worried that maybe she wouldn't like it but I guess my worries were unwarranted because a bright smile formed on her lips as she hugged the abacus in her arms.

"Thank you, Rei! I love it!"
