Recap:

"Nothing. It's just from the way you speak and act... you seem like you were from Korea... in my past life, I was stuck in Korea for a long time. I learnt to make these stuff. Is there something wrong, Hyung?" he asked as he took strides to me. "There is no need to fear me. I will protect you from the disasters. Use me as your shield."

Then I got annoyed and took off leaving the place. I grabbed Choi Han who claimed the jar as his with Ron already preparing the carriage, we left without another word.

"Ah. Did I shake him too much?" I asked myself at the sight of him running off. Well, I have been craving for some Asian food, as everything here is kind of greasy, it's gross. Therefore, I recreated kimchi, miso, bean paste, soy sause, fish sause and many other things. Looking back at the letter I shoved in my pocket, it was an order from father.

Even under the flowery words, the clear command was to go with Cale. "Time to prepare." I mumbled and went told Gloria and Blake to prepare for a long trip.

The next time I arrived at the manor, it's by carriage, which Gloria arranged in advance. Misty is following us from outside, while Akatsuki and Jean are with me inside the carriage, with Blake and Gloria driving the carriage.

"I expected you to arrive later in the day." Ron greeted me, as Akatsuki trotted on my heels and Jean was around my neck.

"I saw no need to. I will be staying until we depart, my old room is cleaned am I right?" I asked.

"Of course. Young master."

"Then I will head there first. Blake help Gloria with the chores, then come find me." I instructed and strolled to my old room, which hasn't changed a single bit. It was still full of magic junk and books. I opened the windows and allowed Misty to join me inside. Everyone curled on my bed to take a short nap, as they left the house very early.

I went to the bathroom to change into more fitting clothes, which Gloria apparently bought in advance. I still wore my brown coat over, as that coat is a magic artifact which I made. But it's effect is small, it only helps regulate temperature and it doesn't rip. I bought it to test the rune out, and it was successful. And I never really bothered to get a new one.

I sat on the table with tea, which was served shortly later as Blake returned to me. Now he is resting with the rest, in his original form. Not long later, there was a knock on the door, before Gloria came walking in. "You are awake Young Master. I thought you might have taken a nap with the others." she glance at the pile on the bed.

"Well, I'm not tired." I told her and got up laying my coat on my familiars, before following her to the dinning room. I was the first there and sipping on warm tea, as everyone else slowly flowed into the room. There were warm greetings from the countess and the children, even Cale's greeting was a lot saner than the deadpan one the count received.

"Lance. You need new clothes." Countess Violan pointed. "and for the love of gods, please throw that coat, I see you wearing all the time away."

"... I rather hold on to it. But I will get another coat, if there is a need to." I told her.

"What is so special about it?" the Count asked.

"It's my first successful magic artifact. Engraving on objects are easier than engraving on a cloth or parchment. I can't just throw it out, no matter how insignificant the artifact might be." causing the man to choke on his food, but everyone else were overly surprised by my words. As I have mentioned it before. "Depending. I might hand it down to someone, I can make another for everyone, but it isn't exactly an all size fit kind of jacket."
