"My babbyyyyyy!"
Julien was suffocated once again as a blonde-haired beauty pulled him in her embrace, hugging him tightly as if afraid that he'll run away and disappear.

I see…
Julien was not the least bit surprised by this quest. He finally connected all dots and understood what the lotus lady meant by making him a sigma chad.
This was the way she would do it, by getting him to complete quests.
The first quest was a simple one, but the penalty was too heavy—literally costing an arm and a leg.
Julien did not know what he should do to accept his mother as his mother, but he had faith that the lotus lady would pitch in if he did not understand anything and help him.
So, being worry-free, Julien decided to go with the flow.
Currently, his first priority was to breathe!
He was suffocating in between a heavenly pair of softness and had trouble breathing.
"Oomffhh! Oomffhh!" Julien tapped on Eleanor's back in submission.
This lady was too damn strong!
Feeling her son's struggle, Eleanor realized she was hugging him a bit too hard. He was just a baby, how could she hold him so tightly?
Eleanor scolded herself and set Julien free.
"Huufff… Huufff…" Julien gasped and breathed profusely.
Eleanor rubbed his back and asked, "Are you alright, my dear?"
"Yes…" Julien replied and got up, inhaling deeply, and evening his breath.
"Master…"
Two familiar voices reached him from the side. When he turned, he saw Jackie and Amelia standing there.
The boy with brownish-orange hair and bright orange eyes wore a clean adventurer's robe that hugged his slim frame. His hips seemed noticeably wider than his waist—or perhaps his waist was just unusually narrow? Julien couldn't quite tell, but oh well, to each their own.
As for the nun, she was in her usual attire with a red blindfold, but her robes this time weren't baggy and were tailored properly to her body, subtly accentuating her curves. She had a coif on her head, but her complete hair wasn't covered anymore like before. Her silky bright blonde hair was vividly visible and flowing.
"Jackie, Amelia…" Julien called out to them warmly.
The two walked close to him and gave him a hug, relieved to see that he was fine.
"I'm thankful to the lord who listened to our prayers and kept you safe, Master." Amelia said while praying.
"We were so worried when you did not come out of the awakening right after us." Jackie said and shook his head.
These guys… they really do care a lot…
"I'm sorry for making you worry," Julien said with a smile.
Just then, an arm slipped around his shoulders, pulling him into a gentle embrace.
"You've found yourself some wonderful companions, my dear," Eleanor remarked, glancing at the two with a soft smile.
Julien nodded. He got out of his mother's embrace and got in between his teammates and her.
"Let me properly introduce you two to each other," he said. "Jackie, Amelia, this is my mother. And mom, these two are my teammates, Jackie and Amelia."
[Ding!]
[Main Quest #1 — Acceptance has been completed!]
[Ding!]
[Your Path — Eternal•Lust — has been awakened!]
[Complete the quests to progress in your Path!]
Julien was dumbfounded with the system notifications.
Just like that?
Really?
He awakened and finished the quest just from a simple introduction?
Oh well… it was G- difficulty. Would've been more weird had I not been able to clear it…
Julien thought the quest was cleared from mere words, but the reality was far from that.
Right beside him, the blonde Duchess was covering her blushing face with her hands and trying everything within her power to not cry out loud.
J-J-Julien… my Julien finally accepted me!
Fireworks exploded in Eleanor's hearts and she couldn't express how happy she was right now!
"Julien!!" Eleanor hugged her son and rubbed her smooth face onto his. "Oh baby, oh dear, oh Julien… mommy can't express how happy she is!"
*Chu* *Chu* *Chu*
Julien's face was instantly smothered with motherly kisses all over.
"Oh dear god… I've been waiting to hear these words for so long!"
Eleanor cried out in happiness and once again kissed Julien's face. This time, it wasn't aggressive pecks, but a long smooch on his cheek.
If this wasn't real life and anime, Julien's face could visibly be seen getting hot and erupting steam from his head.
His eyes were spinning as his thoughts turned blank.
This was the most action his virgin self had ever gotten from someone of the opposite sex, much less a seductive, mature, and drop-dead gorgeous mommy! Not to mention, that mommy was his own mother!
Julien couldn't handle it for long and passed out as his dopamine shot through the roof!
Watching his body go limp, Eleanor's eyes widened and she cried out in shock, "Juliennnn!"
"Julien! Julien, wake up! What happened to you!?" Eleanor was severely concerned and shook her son's fainted body.
"Master's mother, what happened to Master?" Amelia got close to Eleanor and asked.
"He's unconscious!" Eleanor cried and looked quite helpless.
"I am proficient in healing. Please let me check…" Amelia said and got close to Julien.
She placed her hand on his forehead and said, "Oh, nothing to worry about. He just fainted and will wake up in a few minutes."
"My, my, El, you should've restrained yourself from showering so much affection. He's not used to it." El appeared out of nowhere and said while patting Eleanor's shoulder.
"Sniff… yes… I should have held back…" Eleanor said as a drop of tear leaked from the corner of her eyes.
El took out a handkerchief and handed it to Eleanor, chuckling in amusement. She then patted her shoulder and said, "Let's go home. There's a lot we need to talk about."
Eleanor agreed with that. There were too many eyes around them, and it was better if they went back to the Duchy.
Along with Jackie and Amelia, El and Eleanor exited the Tower through an oval portal and went back to the Kingdom of Silverose.
