"Oh my ..." Leona was shocked while also felt joy; she closed her mouth to hide her grin. 

Diana, who was in the glass reflection, also froze when the person in front of her was not Desmond. Instead of Desmond, she was dumbstruck to see a woman who was so beautiful to the point she almost thought this is a fairy tale.

* crash *

The sound of a shattering object sounded behind the Leona. Leona reflexively looked at the source of the voice and found her husband opened his mouth wide, pointing trembling ahead of him. 

"I..m ... p..ob sibble ..." Bastian, who widened his eyes in surprise, muttered and trembling.

* slurp *

Desmond remain calm when he saw this situation; he calmy tasted his wine before returning his gaze to both of his parents. It's a complete mess, thought Desmond as he shook his head.

Inevitably Desmond had to introduce this elf to his parents for the right reasons. Apart from this elf, he also had to introduce Annie and Laura, who had just joined as maids of this house. Because of his order, the senior maids successfully find and recruit the current laura and Annie.

Of course, the reason it wasn't that he wanted to get 'special' service from the young maids, but he had his own plans for the maids in the future.

Desmond, who had been sit beside his father, had already moved to the chair in front of his mother; this happened because his mother suddenly grabbed the mirror he wanted to use.

"Young master, do you want to pour more wine?" Next to Desmond stood a lovely maid. Her long ears and cream-colored hair tied in a braid were now bent over, pouring wine into Desmond's glass.

Besides, this elf bent over her breasts to be right beside Desmond's cheeks. She also smiled sweetly, as if giving a feeling of innocence. 

Leona then turned around and looked behind the mirror, only to find a pale-skinned elf with an alluring face was smiling cheerfully serving her son.

I feel like my position as a mother has been stolen, Leona thought. Her face twitched while she raised an eyebrow before finally opening her mouth. "Boy, what is this?" Leona's tone was icy; she looked at her son with a piercing gaze.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the mirror. When Diana activated the mirror, Clementine, who was beside her, was already looking nervous.

The fact that she even asked her daughter to represent her apology made her self-esteem even lower.

When she saw her daughter freeze, she knew that she had to face it herself. "Let the mother do the talking." Clementine was holding her daughter's shoulder, but her daughter seemed dumbfounded and frozen in place.

She frowned and was forced to channel a little of her strength to shift her daughter. And at that moment, she also froze and widened her eyes.

"Um... Mrs. Leona?" but unlike her daughter, she immediately came back to her senses and spoke.

Desmond, who felt the extreme cold pressure on him, was having a hard time trying to make an excellent excuse to his mother.

But then he realized that his pressure was gone, and his mother was now staring at the mirror she was holding.

"Hello?" Leona, who originally wanted to interrogate her son, was distracted with a seductive female voice from the mirror reflection,

When she heard the woman call out her name, she was confused and tilted her head while answering.

"It's really you, Mrs. Leona." In mirror reflected, Clementine took a deep breath before continuing, "Your beauty is just as rumored," Clementine spoke in a subtle expression.

"Ah ... that's too exaggerated." Leona didn't know what to do; she just smiled awkwardly as she tried to remember the important people in the kingdom.

"Let me introduce myself; my name is Clementine, my job is a housewife." Clementine introduced herself without revealing the identity of her husband. She looked neither arrogant nor showing off as if this was an introduction between ordinary people.

"Clementine...Cle .." Leona muttered as she racked her brain to find the memory of the woman in front of her. But no matter how many times she remembered her name, Leona still couldn't find a suitable memory.

"As you know, my name is Leona, Master Witch that serves this kingdom, and there my husband, Bastian, a loyal soldier." Leona smiled while pointing at her husband, who also slightly lowered his head while smiling politely. 

"Nice to meet you," Clementine replied politely too.

At first, the atmosphere between them was awkward because they had just met and had no topic to discuss, but when Leona asked the girl who was in the mirror earlier, they slowly continued to talk as if they were old friends who had not seen for a long time.

Desmond tried to calm his mind; he already knew that a woman was a strange creature. They are quick to make friends but also quick to make enemies.

Even though he was trying hard, still Desmond couldn't calm down because the elf beside him kept staring at him even as he was drinking!

"Umm…" Desmond wanted to have this elf go back to her duty, but he just remembered he didn't even know this new maid's name!

Bastian, who is on the other side, notices his son's strange behavior; even though this new maid can be charming, he is a person who is loyal to his partner.

He was only surprised that a demi-human was living and working with his family now. He didn't even feel romantic or sexual desire for other feelings when he saw this new maid.

Meanwhile, Leona and Clementine seemed lost in their conversation; even Leona finally moved places and left the dining room.

Leona's departure, leaving a pair of son and father awkwardly look at each other. They just kept on sipping their drink while looking outside view from the glass window. 

"Today's weather is very bright," Desmond stated.

"Indeed," Bastian answered.

* slurp *

Honestly, after a long period of not seeing him, his conversation with his father will became a little awkward. He wanted to ask about the swordsmen's skills but felt it would be bad asking about this because this was the first day they arrived.

Bastian, who also noticed the amount of his son's energy,  wanted to praise him but could not do that. He also felt that this was not the right time after seeing a demi-human.

The two of them also understood that Leona would return immediately after her conversation with Clementine. After all, she wanted and discussion with her family, but the fact is, now she is leaving them, which made them speechless.

....

After an hour, Leona finally ended the discussion session with Clementine, which ended in them laughing cheerfully and happily.

Currently, Leona is heading to the dining room and find that her son or her husband is mutually silent without speaking a word.

This left her speechless; she even wanted to scold her husband, who was lousy at finding the topic, then she glanced at her son.

"Boy, that girl also will accompany you to the academy." Her conversation with Clementine was not just chit-chat. She learned from Clementine that her son said he was already preparing for the academy and hired few guards.

Besides that, Leona also validates Desmond's hand that had been bitten by his own pet and found true. In fact, she heard Clementines also helped him in healing his hands.

With this, she believed half of what her son had said. And she also forcibly corrected and apologized to Clementine for the problems and actions her son had done so far.

When Desmond heard this, he had expected this. From the start, Clementine's request was only to invite her daughter to come with him, but because of 'that' problem made their agreement null.

"Yes, mother." Initially, he wanted to refuse his mother's request. Still, given that his mother's attitude was very stubborn and Desmond wanted to ask his mother to help teach some spells, it forced him to accept Diana to join his academy journey.

Still, it's not a big deal. After all, he only needed to sit in the back and let the guild's mercenaries handle all the obstacles ahead.

"Good," Leona was satisfied with her obedient son. Even though her son is a genius, but at least he still respects his mother. "Now, let's focus on the maid who is beside you."

The atmosphere in this room became tense again; when Leona looked at the maid elf, the maid looked back at her and tilted her head. "Lady,do you also want me to pour the wine?"

Currently, the maid elf was pouring Desmond wine into his glass repeatedly; when Leona looked at her, she stopped her actions and held the wine bottle while approaching Leona.

Leona's face hardened; she nodded as she raised her glass. After that, she took a sip of her drink and opened her mouth. "Is there any new maid besides this demi-human?" Leona also said the words 'demi-human aloud to observe the maid elf's face. 

But she did not expect that the maid elf could still smile innocently while pouring wine into a Leona glass. 

Meanwhile, the other maids serving Bastian feel that this situation will be bad if she doesn't call Annie and Laura. She then made a hand gesture and told the maid who happened to be passing by the front of the room to call them.
