Then we finished breakfast in such an awkward atmosphere and others who stayed over went home . There were just me and Cecily in the room . It went back to usual life .
So the chaos at my home was back to silence . It disappeared like illusions . When grandpa and grandma were back, I and Cecily sat on the sofa in the living room .
It was because grandpa and grandma had something to say .
What would it be?
Maybe was it still too soon?
Cecily and I sat in front of them . I panicked when I thought about these two people who might be angry .
However, it was strange to see how difficult it was .
Grandpa and grandma showed us a mixed face and couldn’t speak to us .
Was…Was it bad?
While I was thinking, they began .
“Actually…there is something I need to tell you, Shin . “
“Something need to tell? Is it about a former disciple?”
“Well . It’s kind of like that . ”
Did something happen before?
Anyway, though I heard things about beating devils before, I hadn’t thought that I could be treated as a hero . I hadn’t heard about that .
Did they want to say that?
I was right . Though I could presume it…
“Isn’t it inconceivable to you? We were actually a couple . But… Why we have no children?”
“That…”
Actually I thought about it .
However, there were couples in the world who wanted children but couldn’t have them . I knew that .
So Grandpa and Grandma were this kind of couples . I guessed it would be like this .
But it was not right by listening to their tone, was it?
“Yesterday that little girl…Ekatarina said she had a lover, right?”
“Uh huh”
“The lover was… . . ”
This topic turned to…Could it be that?
“Our son…his name was Surein . ”
Really…it was like this…
However, it was what it was .
“You can understand what Ekaterina said last night, right? Surein is dead . He is no longer in this world . ”
“I see… . . ”
As parents, how painful it was to see their son leave this world before them?
Because I had not been a father in my life so I was not sure .
However, it could be imagined that it was quite painful .
“…it would be very painful…grandpa and grandma . ”
“Shin…”
“You fool! Don’t, don’t say that!”
Did they remind of something? There were tears in their eyes .
Of course they wouldn’t tell me that .
Because they reminded of painful things .
“Grandpa, grandma . If it is painful, you don’t have to say it . ”
“…It is alright . We are family . Everything between families must be known to every member . ”
“Though we were told by Ekatarina that we shouldn’t be silent, was it good to hide the facts from Shin as a family member?”
I was…a family member…
I was happy with their determination, but I was a bit sad to think that it was a painful story . However, I decided to listen to their story .
“I see . I will listen . Let me listen to it . ”
“Grandpa, Grandma . I want to listen too . Let me listen it . ”
“Well . It was like this . Surein was born several years ago before we fought devils . ”
“He was a naughty boy…Much like you, in different ways, we must keep our eyes on you all the time . ”
When they thought of their past, their eyes became soft .
Was it the memory in happy time…?
“At the time, I was a devil-hunter . I worked with Melinda before I gave birth . ”
“When I gave birth to my child, It became Marlene alone to hunt devils… . he often got a mess back . ”
“Hey? Was that so?”
“Haha… . he hadn’t been good at delicate magic since then . ”
“It was clear that it took money to raise Surein, but he was always violent . ”
“Don’t need to talk about it right now . Now we are talking about Surein . ”
“Oh, you are right . ”
Although I really cared about grandpa’s past, we were talking about Surein right now .
“Well, because it cost money to raise Surein . I also developed magic props alone to make a living . ”
“Making props to help civilians…She earned much more money than me…”
“Because she had always lived with me . Though she could use magic, but it was hard to deny that she wanted to be a magic props artisan . ”
“Hey . It was a little unexpected . ”
And for me, I was treated as a magician .
“Then devils riots happened one day . ”
“We fought against the devils and then we were flattered as heroes by people everywhere we went . We were tired of it that we decided to leave that capital when Surein was an adult . ”
“Diseum came along on that journey . ”
That meant the group was completed after Surein joined in .
“On the journey, we picked up Ekatarina . She was already a psychic back then . They were at the same age and seemed like they were into each other . So it didn’t take them a lot of time to be lovers . ”
They might be fifteen or sixteen years old . Just like me and Cecily .
Cecily might had thought about the same thing and held my hand tightly .
She wasn’t acting cutesy . She was shaking .
Because we could tell there was a terrible thing after it . It was a feeling .
“We saved Aaron who was on business on the journey so he came along with us…The journey was smooth until the fourth year . ”
They had been lovers for four years .
Did they get married?
This question was solved after I heard what grandma said .
“When Surein turned twenty, they were supposed to get married . ”
Twenty? Indeed, I heard people choose to marry at that age . So did they wait for that time?
“And… Before his birthday, we got an unexpected report . ”
“An unexpected report?”
“Um…The dragon turned into a magic monster . ”
“Dragon?”
“Sonna!? How could it happen!?”
Hey? The dragon was Dragon?
That monster in imagination was unreal, right?
“That dragon was real?”
