Chapter 136

"Mama!"

The kid saw his mother and kissed her cheek. Miriam giggled, she returned the favor and kissed her little pogchamp… ehem.

"Mama! Don't kiss me more~"

The three-year-old child struggled back because his mother kissed his cheeks and forehead, non-stop.

"Sorry sorry, my little Lemar is so cute."

Miriam giggled and pinched him.

"Ouch, don't pinch Lemar's cheeks. Mama bad!! Huuuu"

Lemar pouted but Miriam only wanted to tease him more. Mikael witnessed their bonding. He was certain that this child's father is Kyle. He gulped, he imagined how these two completely opposite people fell in love with each other. Miriam was on the righteous side while Kyle was on the grayish boundary. Mikael never thought that they would have a child.

"Hm? Mama, who's that?"

Lemar pointed his finger to Mikael. He was curious why a stranger was in their house. Miriam saw his clueless attitude. She tickled his nose and the child frowned.

"That's your Uncle Mikael."

"Mama liar! Uncle Christian said that uncle Mikael is sleeping and there's a chance that he'll never wake up!! Mama liar, Lemar never believe liar, just like Papa!"

Lemar shouted, he hated people who deceive him. Miriam tried to pacify him but the child began to cry. Lemar remembered how his father said that he would play with him but he never returned. It was one and half a year, their last meeting. As a son of the two High Rankers, Lemar's mind was already mature compared to the kids in his age. He inherited the genes of his parents, and there was a chance that he would awaken a Skill without going through the Awakening or using Skill Book.

A three years old kid with a high level of memory was hard to control. However, his mother, Miriam, would always love him. She never got tired, she just looked at her son and everything would be alright. Even the tragedy that happened, she would forgive it as long as she's with Lemar. She tickled his stomach.

"Abububu, who's our cutest kid? Abububu."

"Hahaha. Mama, stop hahaha, Lemar can't stop laughing hahaha."

Mikael couldn't believe that he was inside a room where a mother and child cuddled. However, he didn't saw it as unpleasant. He remembered how his mother cradle Klein when he was young, he saw the exact image of his mother from Miriam. Mikael couldn't stop his emotions. He smiled but tears fell on his eyes. He didn't know why but he felt safe when he remembered that moment, he loved his mother, and loved his father too. He wiped his eyes because it was embarrassing for a man to cry.

'Yeah, I think I need to visit my parents again. I will tell them about Niña and Furrneka'

(Note: I'm actually crying when I wrote this… A scene of a mother hugging her son makes my heart flutter. It's a beautiful piece of art. Don't know why, but I find it lovely. Perhaps this is the essence of being a human? Creating the next generation, love him, and protect him from any demons of the Earth. Forgive my inner thoughts it's because I'm just emotional. )

"Mama, the man is crying!"

Lemar saw Mikael crying. Miriam looked at Mikael and smiled. She knew the reason why this man was here. He was lost. Miriam carried her son and went to him.

"Lemar, greet your uncle. He needs your help because he is sad."

Lemar hesitated but he nodded his head.

"Un!! Sir, please don't cry. My papa said that you can only cry when you're in front of your family. Mister, you're a stranger so you must not cry inside this room! Lemar is the only one who can cry here!"

The child said innocently. Mikael sniffed and stopped shedding tears.

"Haha, yes kid. Thanks, you helped this Mister."

Mikael tapped the child's head. Lemar's innocent eyes stared at him. Mikael laughed because he saw the world in his eyes. Maybe the children really did hold the meaning of life.

"Mikael, I know that I can't answer your questions. Particularly why we disbanded.… But you can search this, it's one of the reasons why we decided to separate. The disaster of Colombia. Some parts of the story are hidden but you can find them if you work hard. Just ask someone who you think is trustworthy."

Miriam grimaced remembering that time. However, she immediately smiled when Lemar glanced at her.

"Yes, thank you, Miriam. I guess you love him, huh. Miriam, what do you think, can I trust Kyle? Can I still treat him as my brother, a friend that I can ask if I need help?"

"That's…"

Miriam didn't know how to answer. She witnessed how crazy Kyle but still, she couldn't despise him. Lemar immediately scoffed.

"Hah!! Of course! My father is the best!! He's the hero who saved the world many times!!"

He extended his hands showing that he was proud of his father. Mikael touched his small hand. He was smiling because this kid was really cute.

"Damn right, yeah you're father is the best Hero in the world. I saw his accomplishments on the internet. I believe the battle of the Beastmen and Elves is the most popular accomplishment of him. Oh, you know about the Hydra of Qatar? Me and your father crushed that monster."

Mikael said.

"Un! I know it! It's the best action that I ever saw. Lemar knows that my uncles and aunties are the best!!"

Lemar nodded and grinned. He was happy that someone agreed with him. He heard rumors that his father was a mass murderer but he don't believe them. For him, Kyle was the best father. They only meet three times but he trusted his father. After all, Lemar could see the love in his eyes.

"Mikael I think you need to leave. Your girlfriend is punching Seven because she's frustrated. I guess you need to talk to them. I'm sorry, I know that we only have a short meeting. "

Miriam bowed, Mikael braved himself to talk to her but Miriam only left him with another mystery. She could only give him clues. It was the mistakes that they made when they were young.

Mikael agreed. He was already satisfied that he met Miriam. At least he knew that his friend was still herself, she matured but Miriam is Miriam. Now, his priority was to talk to his brother. Perhaps they would have to fight so that they could talk man to man.

Just like him, Klein always carried the burden and never ask anyone for help. As for what happened in the past, even if Mikael knew it, nothing would change. Their team was now destroyed and completely separated.

He closed the door and let the mother and child have their bonding time. It was unfortunate that he never get information about the first Princess that Niña killed but he believed that this meeting was not wasted. He found the answer. No. He realized that he already had the answer.

Since his family was gone, how about he create another? He walked to the corridor thinking deeply.

' Should I ask Furrneka if she wants a baby? I guess I need to ask the Patriarch about what I need to do to increase the fertility... '

Loneliness, a disease that could kill. One person suicide every 40 seconds, the factors may vary but we knew that loneliness and depression are part of it. However, our protagonist found the cure.
