The Extra's Survival

Chapter 224: l Am Back[2]

Lucas, after getting a warm hug and a collective interest of kisses stored for him, tried to wriggle his body to get out as he was almost feeling breathless.

"Mom, I am gonna choke at this rate," Lucas muttered trying to squeeze out his words.

"Ohhh Sorry," Eleanor spoke and loosened the grip.

Before Lucas could mutter anything, Eleanor held Lucas's wrist and pulled him inside while shutting the door with a loud bang.

"Mommmmmmm!" Lucas screamed as he was dragged like a paper doll.

'What the hell! Isn't she just a 3-Star Mage? What kind of strength is this?'Lucas panicked inwardly and felt as if he was pulled by a monster.

In a flash, they passed through the hallway and appeared in the big central guest room which had a big dining table in the corner.

Eleanor stopped abruptly causing Lucas's face to hit her back.

"What happened?" Lucas complained and looked around to see his father Leonard Bright taking a piece of cake into his mouth but he had frozen like a statue before taking a bite.

Lucas didn't know why the atmosphere felt awkward and he felt heat rising inside the room even though it was the end of the winter season.

"Honey!!!"

Leonard heard a sweet and delicate tone and gave a smile seeing Lucas but he was unable to control his emotions and burst into tears while his gaze changed from Lucas to the piece of cake.

"Lucas!!" He cried out and ran towards him with open arms with the hope of avoiding the crisis that had been on him before he could hug Lucas.

BANG!

His figure was blown away and hit the wall but fortunately, nothing seemed to be broken.

Lucas blinked a couple of times, unable to comprehend what was going on, and looked at his mother who put up such an innocent smile as if she was an angel sent to this world.

"You see, your father has high sugar. The doctor has asked him to lower his carbs but your stupid father is sneaking behind me and eating food filled with sugar."Eleanor explained quite gracefully as if she was teaching a small child.

'High sugar!Carbs, what...how?'

An awakened warrior doesn't catch a cold nor does he have a disease like diabetes which affects normal people.

Even though he doubted, he nodded his head like an obedient child, after all, a mother's word is always right.

'Maybe his father is a masochist.'

'Whatever may be, my family is not normal.'Lucas muttered inwardly.

Eleanor pulled Lucas and she sat on the sofa beside Lucas while papa Lucas stood up straight after being beaten like a dog and sat on the sofa with an awkward expression.

With an awkward cough, he raised his hand and stroked Lucas's hair.

Lucas felt the rough and hard palms that callus embedded on it passing over his head giving a sense of peace.

" How are you doing, Lucas?"

"I know that you have surely gone through a hard time reaching here," Leonard spoke with a serious expression but Lucas could see the warmth in his eyes.

Lucas nodded his head with moist eyes" It was hard still I persisted somehow."

"For a few days, I missed you a lot..a lot. I didn't have any friends, I didn't know anyone."

"There were people who shined dazzlingly while I was just a poor commoner seen as filth, I used to hide and train at night to not get caught in the eyes of bullies. The first few months were hard.." Lucas spoke as tears flowed down his cheeks as he let out all the pent-up expressions that had been bottled up inside.

His journey has never been smooth, just because one looks indifferent doesn't mean that he or she didn't feel anything, rather they have all bottled it inside instead of taking it out.

Eleanor wrapped her hands around Lucas's neck and rubbed her cheek with Lucas.

"My baby, you have gone through a lot."

"Tough times don't last long and good times will be on the way if you don't give up," Eleanor said with a graceful tone.

After letting out everything, the atmosphere was silent for a moment.

Lucas wiped his tears and took a deep breath but remembered the deeds he had done just now, he was feeling embarrassed.

He smiled while looking at his mother Eleanor and seeing her face from close, he was stunned for a moment.

Her skin was flawless and delicate and she didn't seem to age even though she is 37.

Lucas always thought that she looked flawless on the phone due to filters but seeing her close even the filters of the phone don't do justice.

She looked more like his sister rather than his mother. Lucas took a glance at his father who is 39 years old.

Even though he looked to be in his thirties, if he stood beside her mother he looked like an elder rather than her husband.

'Father, you must have it hard. You must have gone through a bloody battle to woo mother.'Lucas muttered with sympathy while raising his thumbs.

Eleanor let go of Lucas and started to talk about all kinds of things.

"By the way, can you tell me about the maid who used to be a slave.."

Lucas, who was chatting with his father, suddenly felt a chill down his spine and turned around to see his mother with a twisted smile.

His angel mother looked more like a demoness who had his life.

"Mom, she is my maid."

Eleanor picked Lucas's ears and muttered"Do you think I'm a fool? In the video call, I saw the scars over her neck which can only be created due to the slave collar so tell me from where did you get her?"

Lucas's back was drenched in sweat seeing his mother's frightening senses. Layla might have not used the potion he had given her and Lucas didn't notice it due to Layla hiding her neck with clothes.

Moreover, Lucas mostly brought her to change the future rather than make her work as a maid so he had less interaction with her who lived in a separate apartment made for servants, and even after that, his mother noticed it somehow.

"Princess Julian gave her to me," Lucas said while pinning everything on her.

"I see!" Eleanor loosened the grip and sighed in relief.

"For a moment I thought you cheated on her," Eleanor muttered.

"Whattttt!"Lucas screamed as his face started to heat up.

" Mom, I have told you a thousand times that there is nothing in between us."Lucas tried to clear the situation.

"Really? That means you don't like her. Should I look for a fiancee for you?" Eleanor asked with a coquettish voice.

Lucas was unable to utter any words and just stood up and ran upstairs to his room while shouting back"I am tired. I am going to rest."

Eleanor and Leonard burst into laughter after seeing Lucas's embarrassed expression which looked quite cute.

Leonard, who was laughing heartily, suddenly stopped and his expression turned severe.

Eleanor frowned seeing his dead serious look as if something bad had happened and she reached out for his hand.

Holding Leonard's hand she asked with a worried tone"Honey, what happened?"

Leonard raised his head and looked at the ceiling with an inexplicable expression as countless thoughts ran through his mind.

"Previously, Alexander reported that Lucas had a golden bloodline, not a bronze bloodline," Leonard spoke and paused for a bit.

Eleanor waited for his next words with an anxious expression.

"When I patted Lucas, I felt the resonance."

"Lucas had unlocked the bloodline ability," Leonard said, which astonished Eleanor.
