Home Sweet Home [Part-1]

Chapter Twenty-Four: Home Sweet Home [Part-1]

Art walks towards the door and knocks

Knock knock

"Coming…"

The door opens

Eli opened the door and saw Art standing in front of her.

Brimming with happiness seeing her brother, she hugged him tightly.

"Welcome back, brother."

"Eli, who is there on the door," Elena asked Eli (as Eli was the one who ran to open the door)

Elena came to the front door and saw Art, she ran and hugged him.

"Welcome back, honey."

'I am back home, Mom.'

"Come inside."

'By the way, Mom, where is dad?'

"He is out buying groceries for home. But at least you could have said that you are coming today."

'Hehe, sorry… But I wanted to make it a surprise.'

"Sigh, fine, then you will be taking a bath, right?"

'Yes.'

"Don't ignore, Eli," Eli said.

He looks at her

'Ahh, sorry Eli, but I got some sweets from the capital just for my Eli.'

{Rex City is also called capital.}

Art takes out the sweet and gives it to Eli.

"Wow!! Thank you, brother."

She received those with sparkling eyes.

"…. But we will eat it together."

'As you wish, Eli.' Said while showing a thumbs up to Eli.

Art then went back to his own room, and after taking a refreshing bath, he went down and had his lunch.

While Art was having his lunch, his dad comes back home.

"Oh Art, you are back home, eh?"

'Yes, I am back again without breaking the promise.'

"Haha, you did well. To be honest, I want to know what all happened and what all you did." Levine said.

"Eli also wants to know your story, brother." Eli also said

'I would love to share it with you guys.'

Levine, Eli, and Elena took a seat at the table, and Art, already sitting there having his lunch.

'Let see…. When I first reached Rex City, I met with Ms. Enya. She helped me a lot in many ways. After settling in an Inn, the next day, I went to the Guildhall. I registered myself as an Adventurer, and the same day, I did my first ever mission. The mission was issued by the mayor of the Hillford town, and it was about some goblins troubling them.'

"Hillford town, eh? So, it has become a proper town now." Levine mentioned.

{When Levine was an Adventurer, Hillford was not a town yet.}

'...…. Yes, and then I continued doing missions until I reached B-1 GR. It took me one whole month to reach.'

"You reached B-1 in GR in just one month?" Elena asked.

{Elena was one of the staff members in the Guildhall. Hence, she knows the average time an Adventurer takes to reach B-1 in GR.}

"As expected of my child, Ahahaha," Levine said.

Eli was just listening to their talk and enjoying it.

'.... After one month, I decided to take the test (test to check the eligibility for higher rank missions). I fought against Ms. Enya, though I lost against her.'

"No, Art, it's still impressive that she acknowledged you," Levine said, and Elena nodded.

"Is Ms. Enya stronger than you, brother?" Eli asked Art.

'Yes, Eli. She is way stronger than me and super cool. But she is kind too. You will actually like her once you meet her, Eli.'

'.... After that fight, I became A-3 in GR and is allowed to do a higher mission. But for one week, I didn't do any missions because Ms. Enya was teaching me swords skill for that whole week. One week passed, and I went to the Guildhall, and fortunately, I was recruited by a party. James, the party leader, was the one who recruited me. The rest of the members are; Daniel, Layla, and Chloe, and each of them are impressive.'

"And you were the youngest among them, right?" Elena asked.

'Hehe….'

'.... We left for the InterCity and went into the Primis dungeon. The first day we didn't do much and returned back. The second day, we went to Floor-3, but we didn't find any werewolves, which we expected. We proceeded to Floor-4 and explored in there a bit. After doing that, we decided to return back, but we were attacked by those werewolves. Well, we defeated them with ease.'

"Brother, you are strong," Eli said (>u<)

'I know, right, Eli.'

'...…The next day, we entered Floor-5, and that was the day where I was sucked into the dimensional dungeon. Still, fortunately, I was back in one piece, and nothing much happened. But after that, I wasn't allowed to do any mission for two weeks. A new year and I joined the military camp. I was lucky enough, and I became Kane's disciple. Six months passed, and I am back. But I am really sorry for worrying you back then when I- '

Elena holds Art hand (which is on the table) and said,

"It was unexpected, and all these things happen. We allowed you to become an Adventurer considering all these things. Just take care of yourself and do what you enjoy doing." She smiled as she said that.

"Yes, son, as Elena said, just take care of yourself," Levine said.

Eli walks towards Art

"Eli will always support you, brother," Eli said.

Art pulls her cheeks and said, 'Thank you, Eli.'

"Let's celebrate today," Levine shouted.

Art and Eli are in sync,

"Yay"

Elena sighs

"Dear, you just need an excuse to celebrate."

Everyone laughs.
