Chapter 3: The Mother And The Son
Shortly after, i walked up 3 steps, opened the double doors with both hands and entered.
Almost all the windows were closed, clearly the amount of light emanating from the chandeliere was not enough.
The interior was spacious; the first floor was the dining area with a counter.
One cabinet were placed behind the counter, with a few dozen wine bottles and beers on it.
The door next to the counter probably led into the kitchen, where a good smell was leaking.
At the corner of the dining area was a stairway leading to the 2nd floor. If my guess was correct, the 2nd floor was probably for the guestrooms.
Most of the clients were adventurers, and the atmosphere didn't feel hostile at all.
Everyone was looking at the middle aged man chasing after a kid ; they were amused by this scene.
" Damn kid! Hold still ! "
" No way, why would i want to be beaten by that ?! "
As the middle aged man was swinging his club, and the kid evading , i ignored them i walked to the counter.
Then suddenly, the seemingly woman with blue hair and green eyes who was at the other side of the counter serving the customers, shouted towards the boy.
" MIRZA! STOP BOTHERING MR. FALAN! "
The boy and the middle aged man stopped running at once
" but... mom.... "
" No buts! Come here immediatly and go serve this dishes to those tables at the corner! "
Then immediatly the little boy went to the counter with a sorrowful expression on his face.
" Mr. Falan, please excuse my son's disrespect earlier ... "
The man blushed while lowering his eyesights, and then said with a sweet voice

" Oh don't worry Ma'am , i also took this matter too far . "
" Thank you sir. Jeez that boy ....." as she kept mumbling while wiping the wine glass in her hands.
While i was sitting at the bar she approached me from the side and said.
" Yes? what can i do for you miss ? "
I then replied
" Excuse me, i'm searching for Miss Elsa the owner of the tavern's guild "
After a moment of silence, she asked me again
" .... and who might you be ? "
Convinced that it was her, i took off the ring in my right hand and showed it to her.
Her eyes lit up instantly and glanced twice at the ring, she then said with a trembling voice
" You ..... that ring.... Come with me! "
She grabbed my hand and forcefully took me with her to the cabinet behind the counter.
We were sitting each one facing the other, without uttering a single word for a long time, then she spoke.
" So... you've met him .... you've met my husband? "
" Yeah..."
"I see... is he doing fine? "
" .... "
So i decided to tell her the truth.
When i was summoned into the black space , when i met LandFall, and what he asked me to do here....
While i was telling her the story, she began to cry when i was talking about LandFall. She then wore a serious expression in her face and continued to listen.
" So you are here to protect the little Mirza .... well at least he was thinking of us all this time. When i heard that he was sealed by the 9 heroes, i fled my hometown and came in this small unnoticed village, where the eyes of the church aren't set.

That time, i was still in labour, carrying Mirza. When i arrived here i met an old friend , he took care of me here and gave me a place to stay. He is the current guild master Hayson. "
The guildmaster? i wonder what connection does she have with him .
Then i asked her
" The ring that LandFall gave me, what is it? "
" That is an interspatial ring, it was a gift from LandFall's father and only the primal gods can create them "
I was very surprised, why would he give me such a priceless treasure?
Questions popped in my head non-stop, but then she continued speaking
" ... that ring's power is something that shouldn't exists in the hand of a mortal, because the storage isn't only limited to
inanimate items like the other storage rings , it can also store magic! He must have had the idea that you may use it someday "
" !!! But miss Elsa, i don't know how to use this, to begin with i don't even know magic.... "
" Oh, that's quite easy, it doesn't need magic to activate. You only need to concentrate and say , your spirit will be pulled to the inside of the ring. If you want to get back to your body outside , you only have to concentrate about going back "
(Author's note: What é_è? )
" .... "
" Do you have any other questions? "
" What should i do now? "
After asking this question, an akward silence fell.
After all i can't kidnapp a young child from his mother ...
" Well originally LandFall wanted you to protect him, however i don't really want to separate from my son so soon...."
" Miss i don't plan on taking him from you, but i don't really know what to do, and i don't even have a place where to stay "
Her gloomy eyes then lit up immediatly
" Haa ? Then why don't you live with us ! "
" EH??? "
Author's note: Sorry had a busy week :3
