My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

Chapter 676 - Learning Alchemy From Father-in-Law



-----

After watching the battles for a while, Frank and company quickly decided to move back home after they went inside a restaurant and ordered a lot of delicious endemic food of this world. The sheer variety of food preparations using the monsters of this world was incredible, especially because there were just way too many monsters of all sorts of types spread all around the world.

The delicious preparations implemented all sorts of monster's meat, and even vegetables from plant-type monsters, sauces, and so on were all made through the combination of such preparations, this world was perhaps the most culinary advanced than even Earth itself.

When everyone walked outside the restaurant, Frank had spent a nice amount of coins, but he was a rich aristocrat that had a successful shop, so he could afford it for his family.

"Phew, that was so good…" sighed Orb. "I guess you've done it right. You have pleased me!"

"Orb you really act just like you look like, like a spoiled princess." Said Frank. "But you're my princess."

"W-What are you talking out of the sudden?" asked Orb while blushing, she averted her gaze timidly from Frank, when he drank a lot of alcohol, he always got pretty bold.

"Let's go back first, Frank, you're already a bit drunk now…" sighed Gwendolyn. "Ahh, Alexander fell asleep… We'll have to quickly put him in the cradle."

"Zzzzz…"

Alexander was adorably sleeping over Gwendolyn's arms, he had eaten a lot as well.

"This is the first time I have eaten with so many people before… Thank you for inviting me, sir Frank!" said Arthurious.

"Ah, don't worry about it, Arthurious. I am happy you enjoyed it too." Said Frank, as he petted the boy's blonde head.

"I also got all stuffed… Hehe, but a lot of food was left so I packed it up for my siblings…" said Miriam. "They'll love it, even more because it still warm inside of the bag!"

"Make sure to grab some more food when we reach the monster shop…" said Frank. "Also, I would like to go met you in your orphanage next week, is that okay?"

"Eh?"

Miriam felt surprised, out of nowhere, Frank suddenly wanted to go to her orphanage! But why? What was the big reason behind such a thing? She couldn't really tell, Frank's intentions were always somewhat of a mystery.

He often did things she didn't understand until she finally understood them when they brought a lot of help in some sort of way, this was Frank's way of doing things, he always wanted to keep them secretly so they would be a surprise.

"It is a surprise." Said Frank. "So?"

"S-Sure… I can bring you there." Said Miriam.

"Nice, then we'll see you tomorrow and you'll bring me there." Said Frank.

"Okay!"

Miriam didn't knew why he wanted this, but perhaps there could be a small chance he wanted to give her siblings jobs, or maybe even donate the orphanage money! Although the two nuns would keep all the money… So she would have to convince him of doing otherwise.

For now, however, they reached the shop and Frank quickly brought her a lot of food for the kids, she quickly pakced it inside her bag and made her way back to the orphanage after that.

"Thanks for everything today!" she said.

"Take care!" said Frank.

"Yeah, take care, dear!" said Gwendolyn.

Arthurious also walked with her and the two moved to their respective homes after the arduous day, while being protected by a powerful shadow dragon which they had yet to know was always looking over them and protecting them.

Frank looked over the two children as they moved back to their homes successfully, now that they had two powerful monsters with them, it was very hard for them to actually get attacked even in the most dangerous of streets in Riverside City, so they were quite safe.

Frank and company quickly moved back home, as they reached Earth and wee invited by Vheslia to go met her parents again. Through the month, Frank had been visiting them every day and trying to get along with them.

Her father and her mother were having a hard time trying to accept the entire giant family he had, but they were putting more effort, especially when they began to realize the talents that everyone had, and how amazing they truly were.

Although they still didn't believed that Axitl was an actual goddess and the group decided to just tell her to stop telling them that, but they did discover that Orb had a "weird dungeon magic" because they didn't believed she was actually just a moving dungeon.

"So you're back."

Vheslia's father looked a Frank's eyes defiantly.

"Hello sir Erebus, how have you been?" said Frank with a gentlemanly smile.

No matter how hard Erebus tried to be serious with Frank, his gentle nature and honest personality slowly made him fonder of the human man.

"…Good. Come here, I will teach you some more alchemy. You might be good but there is a lot of family secrets you have yet to see!" he said, as if trying to avert his gaze from the gentlemanly husband of his daughter.

"Sure! I am looking forward to it." said Frank, as he gave Vheslia thumbs up, he was really trying his hardest to be friendly with his father-in-law, and it seemed to be final working.

Vheslia's mother sighed as she smiled. Perhaps changing a bit wasn't so bad… perhaps accepting others wasn't so bad. She even began to question her own society's ideals, and how they saw other races…

Seeing and interacting with people from other races made her realize, and also her husband, that perhaps they were not bad, and that they were simply put… different. They had their own natures, personalities, and more… but wasn't that all demons too? Any person would always have varied personalities and natures, it didn't mattered the race.

Frank and Vheslia felt happy that Vheslia's parents finally began to understand it a bit more.
