Chapter 980: Visiting Elfriedden's House & Meeting His Family
-----
Right in front of the airship that carried us here, there was a group of elves waiting for us. Around twelve Spirit Knights were standing behind two Royal Elves. Each Knight exuded the Aura of a Rank 3 Spirit Orb Master. Not bad at all for their army minimum strength to be Rank 3 at the very least.
Elfriedden stopped arguing with Chris as he noticed their presences, quickly running to meet them. They were his family, it seems. One of the two was a tall, beautiful elven woman with long blue hair, the same color as Elfriedden, wearing a small crown of blue crystal, and wearing a beautiful blue and clear blue colored dress.
The second elf was much smaller, probably looking in appearance around the same age as my siblings, it was a young boy with short blue hair, with a few red strands, and a blue and red eye, the boy was nervous.
"Elfriedden, dear!"
"Mother!"
"Welcome back home, brother!"
Elfriedden ran to greet his family, hugging his mother as she hugged him back and kissed his forehead, while his little brother climbed over his body and hugged him too.
"Hoh, so he got a mom and little brother here?" Chris said. "Didn't he say his family was rough and all? I guess he still got some people he cares about~"
"I do remember he said something about his mother being the only one he loved…" Eric said.
"He also said it was his father and other siblings the problem, mostly." Erdrich said. "Pay attention when a friend talks, Chris. You got it all backwards."
"A-Ah, okay, okay, my bad…" Chris apologized.
"Those must be his mom and his little brother then." Erika smiled. "Elfriedden's mom is so pretty! And his little brother is also really cute! He got red and blue hair, so unique!"
"They're members of the royal family of the continent, so please behave while speaking with them. Elfriedden might allow you to speak to him casually, but it might be a grave crime if the knights see you talking casually to royalty." Cattalina warned us.
"Very well." I nodded, stepping forwards first.
"So that's what happened, huh? I did hear the news. You've brought the Summoner's Party! I heard they defeated the White Dragon, and you participate din that?! Are you okay, my son?!" Elfriedden's mother was constantly checking his face for any wounds.
"I'm fine, mother…! S-Stop, please, you're embarrassing me!" Elfriedden screamed, he was all red.
"Oh, is he your friend, big bro?" His little brother pointed at me.
"Greetings, it is an honor to meet a member of the royalty." I bowed my head in slight respect. "I assume you must be her majesty's Elfriedden's dear mother?"
"Oh my, such good manners for a commoner! Yes, yes, I am indeed my son's mother." The woman said. "Who might you be? Are you part of his team?"
"Yes, your majesty. I am Blake Hunter Goathorn, the Summoner." I said.
"T-The Summoner is this young man?!" Elfriedden gasped. "I thought it was already a grown up person? E-Elfriedden! What kind of joke is this?!"
"M-Mother, wait, don't panic, I can explain! He is indeed the Summoner!" Elfriedden was trying his best to convince his mother.
"I suppose this could make things easier to understand?" I summoned my grimoire and pulled one hard. "Bestellen, come."
FLASH!
The Platinum colored card glowed brightly, exploding into particles of white light, and quickly summoning a gigantic thirty-meter-tall, white-scaled dragon.
"W-What?!" Elfriedden's mother mouth widened in utter horror.
"Eeek! A-A Dragon?!" Even his little brother was shocked.
"Y-Your majesty, watch out!" The knights quickly put themselves surrounding the royalty members, pointing their swords at me as they charged them with spirit and magic energy. "You bastard! Are you with Fafnir?! How dare you summon one of his spawns here?!"
"Spawn? Hah! As if I could ever be the spawn of that little child! Gahahah! You elves make me laugh!" The White Dragon laughed. "I am Bestellen, the one and only White Dragon!
Upon my defeat by the hands of Blake, I have decided to accompany him through my divine soul, I am now part of his many summons. And I can confirm that he is indeed the Summoner! What more proof do you want, you lowly mortals?"
"…"
"…"
"…"
Everyone remained in silence as Bestellen spoke his way as he desired.
"O-Okay…" Elfriedden's mother sighed. "S-So, okay, I get it… Ugh, this is a bit too much to process."
"Can't you unsummon that thing, Blake?!" Elfriedden barked angrily.
"Hmm. Bestellen, come back." I said.
"Wait, already? At least let me torment some mortals before-"
POOF!
He became a card and was stored inside my grimoire.
"Blake, did you had to make such a scene?" Cattalina facepalmed. "Please calm down, it's alright now."
"I-It's the Dream Witch, Cattalina!"
"She came as well?!"
"A-Amazing…"
The knights slowly lowered their weapons.
"It is fine, everyone, no need to panic." Elfriedden's mother said. "I recognize your talents as a Summoner, Blake. And also, nice to meet you, Cattalina."
"Ah, Lady Everfrost, yes, nice to met you too!" Cattalina smiled. "It has been many moons since our last meeting."
"It sure has been. It seems you've brought with yourself the party that will "save our continent" as my son has been saying constantly…" The woman laughed. "Well, I can tell that boy is strong, and you are too. But what about the rest? It results me hard to believe, even after what I saw, that you defeated the White Dragon…"
"We can explain more, if you want." I said. "But how about we sit down somewhere first?"
"Oh my, what are my manners? But of course. Follow me. The King and most of the royal family's not living in Emerald Fountain right now but are located in the Rosenheim Dukedom to the west." Said the woman. "There's a meeting with them scheduled for tomorrow, let me guide you to my manor, please, come with me. There's a big enough carriage for everyone there."
Carriage was a weird way to call a magic car, because that was exactly what it was.
