Chapter 56: The Commendatore's Son Brings His Fiancée to Meet His Parents

"Oh, it's been a while. Vector-sama, Makina-sama."

"It's been a while, Alice-chan. You don't have to be so nervous."

On that day, my mother greeted Alice, who was nervous when she visited our house, with a smile. My father laughed and said to Alice, who looked somewhat calm at my mother's smile.

"Haha, you've become a beautiful woman. I was surprised when I heard that you became Arth's fiancée, but I welcome you as my daughter-in-law."

"Thank you, Mr. Vector."

"Father-in-law is fine. After all you two soon will get married"

Alice nodded while being a little surprised at my father's tension with that laugh.

"Thank you, father-in-law. Also, it's late, but I, Alice Misty, have been engaged to Arth Lost. Thank you for your continued support."

"Yes. Nice to meet you. Please sit down for now."

"yes"

Then Alice sat next to me. Mother and father are sitting facing each other.

"Even so, you often accepted Arth's proposal. Wasn't it a little pushy?"

"No, I was really happy because he was so kind."

"Oh my god. Fufu, What a mutual love."

I managed to suppress my unintentionally grinning at the happy words. Then my mother smiled and said.

"Then, from now on, please come from time to time. I will teach you what you need to do as a daughter-in-law of Viscount Lost."

"Yes. I'll do my best!"

"You don't have to be so nervous. Unlike this person, Arth is sensitive to the subtleties of those he loves."

"Is it really that bad for me?"

When I heard that I was a little shocked, my mother nodded to my father and said.

"Yes. You love your job too much. Well, I'm the one who accepts you."

"I see. Thank you, Makina."

"No, no. It's important to be a little bullish like this sometimes."

"Mother, please don't inject extra words into my Alice."

I said something unnecessary, so when I said that, my mother smiled and said.

"Oh dear. You were scolded. Well, but if Arth really can't be helped, it's your turn, Alice-chan. I'm sure you know, but there are many times when Arth pushes himself behind the scenes, so sometimes he plays the role of a stopper. It is my wife's role to become his pillar and support him throughly so you can become his stopper"

"Is it a stopper, I see."

"Also, if you really want to stop Arth, then this phrase is effective. Try saying, 'Which is more important, me or work?

As expected, mother. She certainly might throw everything away if Alice told her so. There is nothing more important than Alice. While thinking that, I instinctively asked my father.

"Have you ever been told by that father?"

"Twice in the past. Because of work, I got poor physical condition and she healed me through care"

Father with distant eyes. But does this monster also have a concept of poor physical condition? If so, do I have one too? If so, you may be able to experience a sympathetic event. It seems that my physical condition will be stable just by having Alice by my side. There is no better medicine than Alice.

"That's right. As you know, the Viscount Lost family is a family that has served as the Knights Commander for generations. Arth inherited Vector's specs, so in terms of ability, you are in the Knights Commander class. That's why Alice will be the Knights Commander's wife. Just give you one piece of advice."

"Any advice?"

"Yeah, that's right. If it's Arth, it'll be fine, but the men of Viscount Lost love to fight because they're too strong for generations. Sometimes they even throw women away. So don't forget to properly connect your wife to the family."

"...Yes I will try my best!"

Alice is somehow reliable, but I can't leave Alice alone and work hard in battle, so it's probably fine. I'll fight if necessary, and I can't help but become stronger for that, but in the first place, I'm just dealing with the existence that threatens me and Alice's flirting, so even if I make a mistake, I won't become a battle maniac.

"Also, please call me mother-in-law. I want Alice to call me that."

"Yes. Mother-in-law."

"Yes. Please take care of Arth from now on"

"Yes. Leave Arth's affairs to me."

When Alice happily says so, I almost want to hug her, but I manage to hold back. she's really cute But I seemed to be less of a burden on Alice than I'd thought. Her father has been in the air since a while ago so that he doesn't face the spear, so it should be fine at this rate. And seeing Alice happily talking to my mother makes her really happy. After all, her smile suits Alice best. That's why I want to protect this smile. I will do anything for that.

Even if the world is her enemy, I can still fight. I have to change it to a better world for the children I plan to make eventually. Yeah, I vowed to love Alice while doing my best.
