Chapter 35: Escort Quest

Hearing this both Maria and Ezekiel nodded their heads and proceeded to eat,

After eating they were about to clean the table when they heard Eren say,

"Both of you should rest it hasn't been a week since I rescued you on the alley way" he said smiling as he patted their head,

"and besides you don't have to do this I don't want to be accused of child laboring hehe" he continued,

Both Maria and Ezekiel looked at Eren and were about to say something but prefer to be quiet,

(Father's still the same as always, and also he hasn't adopted me yet but I automatically cleaned the table, silly me it's been a while huh) they said to themselves,

(so cute) Eren said to himself as he felt good that the future him raised this kids well,

"why don't you guys rest for now you look like a vampire because of your paleness" he said jokingly,

"ugh!" the two children felt being stabbed in the heart just by hearing Eren's brutally honest words,

Eren laughed inside his mind looking at the children's faces,

(A.N: Hi guys I'll change the thought instead of close and open parentheses I'll just use this ➡️ (') since it's pretty confusing between a character's thoughts and which is the author's words)

'Father really is brutal with his words huh' Rosalia thought,

"welp, since all of you have rested I better finish some quests so that we can finally have our very own house" he said as he finished his last set of physical workouts,

Maria and Ezekiel heard this and were about to say something but were instantly interrupted by Eren,

"uh,uh,uh nope you stay here or else I'll hit your head with this spoon" he said as he was cleaning the table,

'as much as I would like to bring Claude and Rosalia with me despite being transmigrators, regressor, reincarnator, possessor, or anything I could think of it's still better for them to be safe rather than being with me for the time being' Eren said to himself as he automatically shut the door before the children could say any more,

Eren then walked downstairs...

"oh good morning sleepyhead" said the familiar voice,

"oh! good morning Cynthia" Eren replied,

Cynthia smiled as she turned to look at hydra who was busy eating and gave her a mocking smirk,

'That bitch!' hydra said inside her head without noticing the wooden cup starting to crack,

"H-hydra your cups about to explode" says Elina her dark elf friend,

"Oh! sorry about that hehe thank you for telling me" hydra replied finally calming herself down,

'women are really scary' Eren thought since he could automatically read minds he can literally read anyone's inner thoughts,

As Eren approached Cynthia,

"I'm here to do some ques-" before he was about to say any he was interrupted by Cynthia,

"you're here for a high paying quest right?" she said enthusiasticly,

"Y-yes I am" he replied,

'jeez woman calm down I'm not going anywhere and also if you like me just confess not that I can even turn down any women, since I don't have any experience in dating and plus according to this child's memory polygamy is allowed even if you're not a noble but... it depends on your party though not that I want a harem right now since I don't want to be like the idiot main characters in the comics that I read' he thought to himself,

"Here, this is the quest" Cynthia said with a smile,

"Thank you, hm? escort quest?" Eren asked,

"yes it's pretty much the highest paying job since your task is to protect a person and also a product" replied Cynthia,

"I hope it's not an arranged marriage or anything disgusting" he said,

"oh don't worry it's not" Cynthia replied,

"oh! okay thanks" he said as he slightly looked into Cynthia's eyes and left,

"wait let us join you!" said hydra as she ran towards Eren,

(A.N Sorry Guys I almost no existantly posted hehe I'm really sorry I just lost a bit of motivation and Im pretty busy with work so... enjoy again I'm really sorry)
