Transmigrated into a Noble’s beaten son

Once they were all stuffed, instead of heading back to their home, they all decided to venture some more around town.

They immediately saw familiar faces like Talus whom they just chatted with a while ago. However, they decided not to disturb the merchant as he was busy.

From the chats they had, Talus's associates would need to go soon to the continent of Summer.

There, they would also have to stop from village to village to replenish their stocks. Naell could only smile wryly remembering how Talus actually wanted to join them for leisure.

Yet since he was the head of the mercantile association in Beryldot, a group formed by merchants from small villages who couldn't operate a guild house, it would be irresponsible of him to be away for too long.

As they were near the clinic of the lovey-dovey couple, Lily asked if they could visit her auntie and uncle, yet Sebastian frankly told them that the couple was not home.

"They went to Arigare to visit their son." Added Sebastian.

'Ah, I almost forgot.'

Naell knew as he met with Drew days ago. From then, he was able to learn that the protagonist would be leaving soon for their destination which was in the Easterside Empire.

That was why since the lovey-dovey couple was absent, they all decided to visit the Yeti at the entrance of the Forestland.

It seems Lily was often in that place with Sebastian to practice her magic. And ever since the Yeti's arrival, they became friends.

"Lily!" The one who called was Sestra. Alongside her was her brother Estra, the baroness Lilia, and the two lieutenants Dikolam and Iwanko.

"Big sis!" Shouted Lily who ran to greet them and immediately after, embraced her mom.

Naell also greeted them before following up with, "Good afternoon mom, were you with dad?"

The elegant baroness then nodded as she replied, "Yes, I was on my way back."

Fharom was in the eastern region of Beryldot, known as the farmlands. Since it was summer, some fruits were already being harvested by the villagers, hence why he and Lilia were busy.

Although in some regions, nobles don't actually go and associate themselves with the farmers and serfs, Fharom (who was once a commoner himself) had a strong grasp of his roots. Thus he would often help govern the harvests.

"Sorry you two, we are both quite busy today."

"It's fine, brother, Owly, and sensei are with me!"

"HOOT!!'

All of them smiled at the two children's response and after some time, Lilia excused herself as she needed to return to where Fharom was.

Naell and Sebastian in the first place actually wanted to help, but since Fharom made them take a break due to them overworking in the past week, both of them agreed.

WIth the sun brightly shining on their backs, the warmth reminded them to take it easy, as their agenda that day was to play with Lily and Owly.

"Take care then everyone—and Lily, Owly, don't forget to drink lots of water after eating sweets."

"We won't forget!"

"HOOT!"

As she went inside the carriage, Dikoalam and Iwanko then excused themselves as they were Lilia's escorts in her travels.

[ Ugh, let's catch up soon, young master! ] Said both, to which Naell replied, "Sure, take care."

While they left Naell did hear the two spouting nonsense about how they wanted to "see it as well". Yet since he had no inkling of what that was about, he refrained from thinking about it all together.

As for Sestra and Estra, the siblings decided to accompany them to the forestland.

"Haha, thank you for inviting us, teacher." Said Estra and Sestra to Sebastian.

"It's fine, HOHO!"

As the siblings and he had known each other for a long time (Sebastian even took care of them at some point when they were still young), they were quite close to each other.

Due to this, the atmosphere wasn't quite as awkward as Naell remembered when they all first met.

It had already been a year since their monster subjugation quest. That was also when Naell's infamy was still at large. Yet ever since that day, his skill became known by everyone in Beryldot as his ice magic was deemed akin to his mother, Alicia.

"Young miss Rinca often talked about you Naell."

"Haha... Is that so." Replied Naell. Even though he was an awkward potato, he knew when he was being teased.

Especially when the one egging him had a wide grin on her face. Not to mention, even his little sister had her ears perked with the conversation.

"I know they will do well in their training, all of them are strong afterall." Added Naell to change the conversation.

And yet it all came back to him as Sestra replied, "Yeah, I was even with them in one of their dungeon training, they were really capable."

With a wider smile she then added, "But they say you are probably stronger than them now... It makes me really curious."

Naell could only deny it with a smile. If there was one thing he knew could happen from those types of conversations, it was an energy-draining sparring of some sort.

After some time, they managed to finally arrive at the forestland much to Naell's glee. Sestra's was afterall teasing him too much, and Lily was also very supportive of her by egging him on.

Eventually, the two Yeti arrived and greeted them as well.

"All of you, good day," Husby said while Wifey put her hands on Lily's hair.

"Good day, HOOT!"

"So these are the two..."

Naell could hear Sestra's whisper, it seems it was her first time meeting the Yetis.

"Good day to you both, we are just here to sightsee." Said, Sebastian.

To which both Yeti nodded while Wifey replied, "I see, Lily sparring, I thought."

When Naell heard that, Lily then explained how the Wifey and sometimes Husby sparred with her so she could gain experience in fighting monsters.

"Thank you for teaching my sister."

[ That fine sire dra— Naell. ]

Both Yeti still struggled to change their habit of calling him dragon, but they knew they had to as Naell didn't like it.

With the introductions all in order, Owly then went and brought out all his snacks, signaling it was time for their second lunch.

Naell was satisfied and thought that was the end of it, however as he was about to call it a day, he heard Lily speak, "May you please spar with my brother I wanna see it myself!"

"..."

"Yes! I'd like to see how young master Naell would fight." Said Estra with Sestra nodding furiously.

While the two yetis were also agreeing while saying, [ Different Naell feels, stronker mana make us curious. ]

'Why am I not surprised?'

Truth be told he was, yet he couldn't admit how effective their plot had been.

'I mean she did tell me how excited she was when she heard the story about my duel with them.'

And to be exact, he did catch the duo, Dikolam, and Iwanko spouting some nonsense a while ago.

'That is why sensei is also here to watch.'

When he looked at Sebastian, his usual "HOHO" seemed to be tense, as if he was guilty of being curious as well.

'So these two were in cahoots with...'

Likewise, when he looked at Estra and Sestra suspiciously, neither could look him in the eyes as they collectively said, [ What a coincidence that we're here, HA...HAHA ]

And finally, his eyes landed on his sister, who was looking at him full of anticipation. He could only sigh and smile as he said, "I can't really say no to my sister."

With his words, all were rejoicing, even his supposed sparring partners, all but one- the mastermind behind the scheme.

As Owly was grinning with his mind, Naell finally laid his gaze onto him, and with the coldest looking eyes he said, "Traitor, I know it was you!"

If Owly's tehee wasn't as cute as it ought to be, Naell would have sparred him instead.
