<h4>Chapter 385 Meeting the Lanndy’s Family Again</h4>


    After meeting Alice, our group went to the headquarters of the Imperial Guards to get Katherine, Daisy, and the others.


    The entrance to the Institute had been blocked by the Imperial guards, so Evelyn, Katherine, and Rose could not return to their bedrooms tonight. At the same time, Dina was not keen on returning to the pce right now.


    So, after deliberating briefly, and under Daisy and Dina’s suggestion, the group decided to spend the night in my new mansion.


    I was a bit reluctant. After all, with so many women keeping an eye on me, it would be difficult to enjoy my nights of debauchery. But in the end, decided to ept.


    I just needed to modify my ns for tonight a little bit.


    A few hourster, and when Dina, Evelyn, and the others were assigned to their rooms, I told the girls I was going to spend the night outside because I needed to deal with something.


    Although some of them were a bit dissatisfied, they showed understanding and agreed.


    Like that, I left the mansion as soon as night fell. Next, I snapped my fingers, casting the usual disguising spell and changing my appearance to the one of my alter identity.


    The red-haired and red-eyed rk.


    When everything was ready, I moved across space, appearing in front of the door of a house.


    It was Ms. Lluvia’s house, the ce where ’rk’ rented a room.


    I had not been here in a while, so it’s a good idea to check the situation here.


    *Knock Knock!*


    After I knocked on the door twice, I heard someone rushing towards the door excitedly.


    "Son! You are finally here!" Miss Lluvia opened the door and lunged towards me excitedly, but instantly, she realized that something was wrong.


    "Good evening, mom..." I said with a teasing smile.


    Lluvia blushed in shame and pushed me away. "Y-Young Master rk... S-Sorry about this..."


    "I told you to not call me young master anymore, didn’t I? Can Ie in?"


    "Y-Yes, of course."


    Still blushing, Lluvia guided me inside. I was not sure if she was blushing because she confused me for her son, or because she remembered our naughty games when she hugged me.


    During the way, she exined to me that her son, Ramon, wasing home tonight, so she prepared a special dinner to receive him. Due to that, she thought it was him when I knocked on the door.


    I did not mind it and instead teased her, telling her that she could hug me again if she wanted, but Lluvia scolded me yfully saying that her husband was nearby and it was dangerous.


    Soon, we reached the living room. And as soon as I stepped in the living room, the atmosphere there froze.


    rice, Lluvia’s daughter-inw, grinned briefly before remembering that her sister-inw and father-inw were could suspect something, so she quickly returned to her usual cold expression.


    Nana, Lluvia’s daughter, looked at me with a gaze of disgust and anger after remembering what I did with her mother and sister-inw.


    And Peter, Lluvia’s husband, looked at me in displeasure.


    "... What is he doing here?" Peter asked with a frown.


    Lluvia furrowed her brows. "Young Master rk rented a room here, remember? So this is the ce where he lives. Moreover, you should be more polite to him. Who do you think is the one that lent us the money to pay for your addiction!?"


    "You..." Peter’s face turned dark as though he wanted to erupt in fury. In the end, though, he snorted and looked away, deciding it was better to ignore my presence.


    "Sorry about it, young master rk." Lluvia apologized sincerely. "Why don’t you sit first? I will get you a bit of water for now. We will start dinner when my child arrives."


    "Thanks," I said and sat down at the table. I could see many delicious-looking dishes on the table. It was obvious Lluvia had worked hard to prepare them to wee her son.


    "Young Master rk, it had been a while since thest time you were here. Did something happen?" rice sat down in front of me and asked curiously.


    I smiled amusedly. I was tempted to ask her if she missed me, but seeing the look of angering from Nana, and Peter’s dissatisfied expression, I decided to answer normally.


    "... I have been very busy recently due to work. In fact, I need to give you some news this time."


    "News?" Lluvia, who returned from the kitchen, asked surprised. "Did something happened?"


    "Everything is alright. It’s just that I’ll be even busier after today, so I don’t think I cane here as often as before."


    Lluvia and rice were surprised. Mainly rice. She hurriedly put on a concerned expression and asked concernedly.


    "T-Then, will you stop living here?"


    "More or less, but I will stille when I can," I said.


    "Is it so? I see..." rice was a bit disappointed.


    "Don’t worry. I will stille once or twice each week." I smiled when I saw her listless expression. "Besides, you still owe me money, so you can’t get rid of me even if you want," I said jokingly.


    rice and Lluvia blushed deeply. In their minds, they remembered the ways she used to pay the ’interests’ of the debt.


    At the same time, Nana turned even angrier. The young girl seemed like she wanted to eat me alive.


    Fortunately, she managed to endure her anger. Perhaps because she wanted to maintain the facade of a beautiful family.


    Perhaps to her, I was the one that destroyed this family.


    But although I don’t deny my responsibility, the main culprits of this were still Peter and his son.


    Their gambling addiction was what truly caused all of this.


    We continued talking about different topics for a while, waiting for Lluvia’s son’s arrival. Soon, though, one hour passed and he had not arrived.


    Lluvia started to frown.


    "... How weird, Ramon should have arrived already..."


    "Don’t worry, Perhaps he was dyed by something."


    "... You are right." Lluvia forced a smile out to hide her worry and continued chatting with us.


    But another hour passed.


    And another.


    With each hour that passed, Lluvia, Peter, Nana, and ire looked more and more worried. Ramon was almost four hourste.


    Finally, Peter was unable to continue waiting. He stood up and put on a coat, getting ready to go out and see if he could learn anything about his son.


    But at that moment, someone knocked on the door.


    "... Mom... I’uam hwere..."


    And a slurring voice came from the other side of the door.
