Chapter 99 - Mother & Son

Arato: Both of stop worrying about me, I am worried about Vali.

Vali: Why are you worried about me??

Arato: You are already 18 but you don't have a girlfriend. I should be worried like any other normal mother.

Vali: But we are not a normal family and you are not a normal mother.

Arato: Sparda your brother is being mean to me. But Vali you should have a girlfriend.

Sparda: Vali it is bad to bully mother.

Vali: Not you too, mom I am not being mean I never thought of those things to be important.

Sparda: Vali mother is only worried about you.

Arato: Yes I worried about you son.

Vali: You don't have to worry, I am trying to find someone.

Arato: That's it Vali make your mother proud. Come, boys, I made curry rice for us.

After that, the maids called all of the present members of the house and they started to eat Arato's food.

Vali: You are a good cook mother but brother is better than you.

Tia/Scathach: I would like to agree with Vali.

Arato looked at Sparda with teary eyes.

Sparda: No mom they are telling lies yours in better.

Tia: Then we should hold a duel.

Sparda: Nobody asked for your opinion. Mom, there is no need for that.

Arato: No I cannot give in now, a mother's pride has been challenged. Let's get started with your cooking.

Sparda: Ok, I accept your challenge but not now, I am tired today.

Arato: Ok I will wait.

While they were eating the rest of the girls also came back, they entered the house and didn't find anyone and they heard voices from the kitchen so all of them headed there. All of them entered the kitchen and found a new woman laughing and eating with them.

Amy: Sparda I thought you were going to heaven to fight evil dragons not to get another girl.

Sona: You can't be left alone.

Akeno: Fufufu… This is turning me on.

Sparda: She is my mother so stop your thoughts from wandering.

The newcomers were shocked to hear this. Amy and Sona were completely embarrassed that they thought Sparda got a new lover.

Amy: I am really sorry mother, please forgive me.

Arato jumped up and hugged Amy because she called her mother. After that, all of them started chatting happily. A few hours passed in an instant but all of them were brought out of the trance when Vali announced that he will be leaving.

Arato: Can't you stay??

Vali: There isn't anything more I would like to do but I have to leave. My group is waiting for me.

Arato hugs Vali while tears threatened to come out from both of their eyes. Only after a couple of minutes, they separated from each other.

Arato: Son be safe out there.

Vali: Yes mother I will be.

After that Sparda snapped his fingers and opened a Garganta, Vali entered the Garganta and left. Arato turned towards Sparda's fiancées.

Arato: So which ones of you are already sleeping with my son??

All of them didn't answer they got embarrassed and lowered their heads.

Arato: Oh my…!! I am so proud of you son, you work really fast.

Sparda didn't mind her comments and was sipping his whiskey peacefully. Arato started to talk with Sparda's fiancées about all the stuff. She was really happy because her son had found happiness and there were his fiancées who would support him no matter what.

Sparda: All of you girls go upstairs, I need to talk with mother.

All the girls left mother and son to chat.

Sparda: Did you love father??

Arato: Son can you pour me some gin??

Sparda gets up and brings a glass of gin for his mother. Sparda handed her the glass and she started sipping from her glass.

Arato: To tell you the truth I never loved him, it was an arranged marriage. After the marriage, your father killed my family but I never liked them from the start so it didn't matter.

Sparda: I see.

Arato: Is that all you wanted to talk about??

Sparda: You got a new life mom, I would like it if you live this life without any reservations.

Arato: What do you mean by that son???

Sparda: I want to say that if you fall in love with someone I don't want you to stop just because of us.

Arato: Oof… I will see to that when the time comes.

Sparda: That won't do… I need you to promise me.

Arato: Uhhhh…!! Ok, son, I promise you.

Sparda: That is assuring.

Arato: So son since now I am a reincarnated angel under Lord Michael. I will be working for him right??

Sparda: You can work for him if you want, I won't stop you but he will not order you to work for him.

Arato: I want to work or I will get bored with myself.

Sparda: I have no problem if you want to work under him. Take this pendant and always keep it with you.

Arato: This is beautiful. So what functions does this pendant have??

Sparda: How did you know that the pendant had other functions?

Arato: I have talked with your fiancées and found how caring you are.

Sparda: It will boost your magical and physical power by 20% and it can form an unbreakable shield around you for 3 times. It also notifies me when you are in danger and your exact location.

Arato: I will cherish it son.

After that, they had some small chats and then he showed Arato her room. Sparda left her in her room and entered his room and that all the girls were already asleep. They left space for Sparda in the middle. Sparda took a bath before going to bath, he took the place they kept for him in the middle. Sparda drifted off to sleep while he had a peaceful smile over his face.
