TBATE Back to save you

Chapter 4: Dawns Ballad

Arthur Leywin POV:

It has been about a week since my meeting with a director. My life was going by in a comforting manner, spending time with my family, training and making plans for the war... and looking after Alea from a distance, that's right, I totally didn't stalk her

' Yeah, and I don't like Caeras boobs' Regis commented in my head, his sarcastic voice making me even more conscious of my new "hobby"

' Papa... I know how much you like her but... stalking is no good, okay?' Sylvie said in a scolding, yet a caring voice

My daughter is growing up so fast... 

I know that I should feel happy about it, but that makes me feel sad. Is this how mom and dad would always feel about me?

' So papa, mind finally telling us about your plans for the war?'

I looked at Sylvie who was in her human form wearing her signature black dress 

" No, I will tell you when the time comes" I gave her a wink 

' Muuu, papa is a meanie' she turned her head to the other side and pouted. Honestly, the sight of my cute daughter's pouting was just too cute, at this rate I might even get a diabetes 

.......

I was walking toward uncle Vincent's office so I could talk with him about helping Lilia become a mage and him helping me get some items 

Mom, Ellie, aunt Tabitha, Lilia, and Sylvie have gone for shopping while dad is back at the auction house, so I should have some time for the private discussion with uncle Vincent

Regis is currently asleep, rather than asleep, he is hibernating while keeping my core in check because ,as he put it, it's very exhausting 

Hallways of the Helstea mention were finely decorated with luxuriously decorated walls and expensive paintings could be seen every couple of steps. The floor was covered with a red carpet that had golden lines spread through the sides of it. If it wasn't for my short life in Alcarya, not to mention the Dragon palace of Ephoteus and flying castle, I would, once again, believe that this is one of the finest buildings in this world

I reached the door of uncle Vincent's office. They were relatively large wooden doors. The wood that they used for them was relatively darker so it gave a warm feeling to the rest of the hall

* KNOCK KNOCK*

I knocked on the door and waited for the response

" Come in!" I heard uncle shout from the other side

I opened the door and looked toward uncle Vincent who had piles of paper on his table

' I kinda pity the four eyes now' is it really necessary to point out who said this?

Finally finishing with one of the papers he looked at me, and when he noticed that it is me who came to visit him, he gave me a confused look 

" Arthur, is something wrong?" he asked, obviously concerned

" Actually, I just came here to discuss something with you?" I said in my authoritative mode that I used back when I was a king and in my time as a lance

" Ah, I see..." he said and gestured me to sit in the chair on the opposite side of his desk

I sat in a chair and rested my head on my right hand while putting my right leg above my left one. Seeing my posture and demeanor that was clearly different from my usual one made uncle Vincent look confused and nervous
