Chapter 223 Do the two of you sleep in the same room?

*Knock* *Knock*

A knock was heard and Vaan and Elara froze.

"You brat, wake up and get ready.

Your mother is coming."

Orion's voice was heard.

Elara's freaked out. Her body was jolted awake, all her laziness disappeared in an instant and she tried to move away from Vaan. Vaan panicked as well, he moved away from Elara as well, and with a grim look on his face, he quickly stood as up and once he made sure everything was alright, rubbed his face to 'wipe out' the drowsy look on his face and rushed towards the door.

As he opened it, he saw Orion standing in front of him with a playful smile on his face, Vaan frowned, he looked around, and noticing no one else besides Orion, a deadpan look appeared on his face as he stared at his father.

Orion's smile widened,

"Why are you looking at me like that? You seem somewhat panicked."

"Where is Mother?" Without wanting to play any games, Vaan questioned.

"Hmm? Did you not hear what I said?The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the N(o)vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.nᴇt

I said she is coming, she is not here yet. She would still need a few hours to get here."

Orion revealed and Vaan's mouth twitched in annoyance.

Orion, of course, was enjoying the interesting expressions appearing on his son's face, and,

"Why are you acting like you were caught doing something wrong?

Vaan, you aren't doing something your Mother didn't allow you, right?"

"…"

Vaan didn't say anything.

He could tell that Orion was teasing him and was having too much fun in the process. He wasn't planning on giving his Father any more content.

"Thank you for informing, Father. The two of us still need some time to get ready, so I will be excusing myself."

"Oho, I am surprised to see you act so courteously."

"I am your child, of course, I would inherit something from you."

Vaan replied with a polite smile on his face.

Not liking that smile at all, Orion scrunched his nose as he then shook his head and,

"Alright, stop acting like that.

I will be taking my leave now,

Your mother will be here soon, so get ready."

"I understand." Vaan nodded. Orion finally turned around and left.

"…"

Without saying anything, Vaan closed the door as he returned to his bed.

Elara was looking at him with a grim look on her face, Vaan could see how the bed was made with the bedsheet perfectly folded, pillows placed right where they should be, and no signs of the two bottles of wines they emptied yesterday.

Heck, even the slight smell of wine that was lingering in the room had somehow disappeared.

Not just that, Elara's messy hair was all perfectly tied up, the clothes she was wearing were different from what she wore before, heck, Vaan even felt that this woman had already taken a bath.

'How in the hell…'

Vaan of course, had no clue how something like that was possible.

Was there a Magic Spell he didn't know about?

But even with Magic… how did everything happen within 5 minutes!?

This made no sense at all.

"W-What happened? Where is Teacher?" Seeing that he wasn't saying anything and was only staring at her with a surprised look on his face, Elara decided to ask.

"She is not here yet, it would take her a few hours to get here," Vaan answered, and,

"What…?"

Elara stared at him with a look that was an exact copy of the look he had when Orion revealed this to him.

The two of them had started to pick each other's actions and were now resembling each other.

"Father was only here to inform us," Vaan replied.

"…"

Elara turned silent, choosing to not say anything.

After a while, she stood up and,

"Let's freshen up, we shouldn't be late."

Vaan nodded.

The two then walked into different bathrooms, getting ready to start their day.

A few hours passed by, it was time for Astra Elysia Vesta to come into the Agresia Academy.

To Welcome her, the Headmaster, the Vice Headmaster, the main members of the Vesta Family, and a few other people stood at the Academy Gates with smiles on their faces.

Soon, the Doors of the Academy opened up and from there, an exceptionally beautiful woman wearing a purple gown, accompanied by five people, 3 men wearing Black Suits and 2 women wearing Black Gowns, came in.

Vaan couldn't help but raise his eyebrow in appreciation, his mother was looking beautiful, especially with how elegantly she was carrying herself, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.

Other people stared at her with surprised looks on their faces as well, all taken aback by her beauty. Astra smiled as he eyes fell on the people in front of her.

She elegantly walked forward and slightly nodded as she appeared in front of Octavius.

"It has been a while, Headmaster."

She spoke, her voice soft and soothing to hear.

"It has indeed."

Octavius laughed out loud. Then, with a playful smile on his face, he glanced at his daughter-in-law and,

"Head of the Vesta Family, Astra Elysia Vesta, I welcome you to the Agresia Academy, I hope you have a good time here."

"Thank you for allowing me to be here," Astra replied politely.

Then, she started greeting others.

The Formalities continued for an hour and once all of it ended, the only people left were Octavius, Orion, and the Mages from the Obsidian Order following Astra.

"So Lady Astra, what do you think about our Academy?" Octavius, who had been showing Astra around during the formalities questioned with a playful smile on his face.

"Father-in-law, please drop the act, it is uncomfortable."

Astra replied. The Headmaster laughed out loud, then, he glanced at Astra and, "Now can you tell me why you decided to come here so urgently?"

"I would have but I have a reason to believe that this might get big, so I will be hiding it for now. I hope you understand."

Astra replied.

Octavius momentarily turned silent, then, he just asked one question,

"Is it something that might negatively affect his future?"

Octavius knew that whatever the reason Astra was here for, it was something related to Vaan. Naturally, he was worried about his grandchild, especially when he knew that the kid had a bright future ahead of him.

Astra shook her head, "It will not."

Her answer was precise, not giving away any details.

In the end, Octavius just sighed. "Alright, come meet me once you are about to leave, I would like to have a chat with my daughter-in-law."

"Of course." Astra nodded with a smile.

"Carry on with your things."

Saying those words, the Headmaster walked away.

Astra glanced at Orion, the man smiled. The two hugged and Orion then took Astra to the new Vesta House.

A grim look appeared on Astra's face when her eyes fell on the 'Vesta House.'

"Don't worry, he is working on it.

I am positive he would succeed.

It might even be faster than we initially expected."

"He better."

Astra's reply was short, then, with a cold look on her face, she walked into the House.

The moment she walked in, she could sense the tense aura inside the Hall. Her eyes fell on the Vesta Family members, all of them with the exception of the students who came this year avoided her eyes.

Then finally, Astra's eyes fell on the two Protectors of the Vesta Family.

"The two of you are required to report to the Vesta Family once this semester ends." She ordered.

"As you command, Lady Astra."

The Protectors, of course, had no choice but to obey.

Astra's eyes then fell on Vaelen.

"The same goes for you."

"As you command, Family Head."

The response was the same as well.

Astra then pointed out a few more people, these were the people who were supposed to report her the recent happenings in the Academy.

Of course, they would all be seeing the consequences of failing to do their work properly, and this time, the Academy wouldn't be there to protect them.

The atmosphere in the room was heavy, when she was done with everything, the Family Head finally turned towards her own child.

The main reason she was here,

"Take me to your room."

She ordered.

Vaan and Elara panicked.

Astra frowned, she glanced at other members of the family who were avoiding her eyes again, especially the ones who were supposed to report to her.

Astra couldn't help but blink in surprise, but suddenly,

"Come to my room instead."

Orion stepped in.

Astra frowned, however, seeing Orion nodding at her, she decided to respect her husband and followed her into her room. Vaan and Elara followed the two as well. Only after they all left did the rest of the Family members sigh in relief. As if they were glad to come out of a great battlefield alive.

"You hid that from me."

On the other hand, Astra, who was told that Elara and Vaan lived alone narrowed her eyes as she glanced at Orion.

"They are not children anymore, Astra.

They should be allowed to decide for themselves."

Orion spoke up.

Astra turned towards Vaan and,

"Do the two of you sleep in the same room?"

She questioned directly.
