Transmigrated into a Noble's beaten son

Chapter 126

By the time they were already heading back into the estate, dusk had slowly crept upon them. Soon the faint orange hues enveloped Beryldot.

Instead of heading back immediately to their home, Lily and Owly eagerly suggested going into the middle of town to sightsee, while Estra and Sestra excused themselves.

"Take care in your travels tomorrow!" Said Lily to the both of them knowing they were to depart for Arigare, hence they would have to wake up early.

Some moments later, they then arrived at the humbly lit town square. As they entered the middle of the town, bit by bit the number of lively people began to increase which was far more than what Naell ever expected.

"The night market you suggested was a big hit." Said Sebastian to which Naell nodded with a smile.

As Naell looked around the town, he could only admire the improvements made to the market; accompanying the number of people were stalls with local products and foods, being sold with the same vigor as in the morning.

Music was also being played in some corners far from each other, hence the melody of every song could be appreciated regardless of the location.

However, even amid the crowds, what caught Naell's eyes was the sight of the two scholars whom he thought were already exploring other dungeons.

As his gaze was caught by them, their eyes turned wide with gladness for mere seconds before changing back to normal.

Immediately, Naell felt the need to escape. He didn't know the reason but somehow, the two were looking more frantic than usual.

"Good day elder, young miss Lily, Nae— young master Naell and Owly." Said both while bowing.

"Oh, good day to both of you." The one who spoke first was Sebastian while the two siblings (Naell and Lily) returned a noble and reluctant bow, with a corresponding HOOT from Owly.

Sebastian then added, "Welcome back to Beryldot."

Owly then telepathically asked,

- What brings you back, HOOT?

"Hehe, we somehow miss the food here, and... We actually wanted to speak to both of you. What a pleasant coincidence to stumble upon each other tonight!" Replied Drhys with his usual energetic scholarly tone.

Yet Naell knew his eyes were serious, far from Drhys' facade of mere curiosity. Owly caught it too yet since Sebastian and Lily knew very little about them, they didn't get any hints of that.

- About what, HOOT?

Owly asked first, knowing Naell was too busy rejecting the idea of anything but trouble. That was why when Sajae replied goofily, "You guys said you would treat us so we came back!"

Naell was immediately brought back to reality and happily welcomed both into Beryldot.

"But not now as you guys are in the middle of some family time, but if neither of you are busy by then, please tour us." Said both before saying their farewells and going on their way.

And that was how Naell happily spent his afternoon.

Soon dinner arrived at the house of Beryldot. By then, all of them were already in the dining room enjoying each other's company. Oftentimes Fharom and Lilia were quite busy, now even more so from whence the war had broken out.

Nonetheless, they always tried to make time to have dinner together as a family, especially now while Naell was still at home.

They all ate food such as the so-called chicken inasal: a grilled chicken marinated with ginger, lemongrass, and calamansi juice.
