Chapter 160: Wedding (3)


    ''What if the matter is taken to the court? Should I call father? What about my reputation? What about my father''s reputation? He would kill me.''


    Her father is an influential figure even considering the whole kingdom but even that isn''t enough to defy thew. The world changed after the apocalypse but thews didn''t. In fact, the loopholes of the previousw systems were remodelled in such a way that thatw only strengthened. It would be an overstatement and beyond optimistic to call it "perfect" but at the very least, everyone has the same human rights even though status can differ.


    A Collective Official, a post higher than the Marquis of a province, would be treated the same as amoner with no status. Of course, that doesn''t mean that oues would be entirely fair. To get a fair judgement, you would need fair money. To file a case in Town Courts costs no money but at the same time, they are busy and cases don''tst more than six sessions. Lawyers are also an important factor.


    However, Rewen''s family is not poor. He himself might not know much about his family but Svety does. She realized that she had fallen into a deep abyss that she can''t easily get out of.


    ''No. I can still get back on the track. I have mended my rtionship with Rewen. If he tells everyone to not spread the matter, then it can be resolved. I don''t think he would file a case against me.'' When she thought about her rtionship with Rewen, she felt a little better.


    "Oh! There he is!" Gill pointed to two young mening out of the vi main entrance.


    Gill and Junar were the first to approach Rewen.


    "Hey, who is the other guy?" Salica asked when she noticed a ck-haired young man around her age standing beside Rewen.


    "He is the childhood friend of his character." Denny answered while walking.


    Meanwhile Rewen was in a pinch as to what he should do with these people. He had several things in mind but before that, he was attracted to the magical girl outfit Zelic was wearing and burst out into fits ofughter. It was too goofy and cartoonish.


    Zelic didn''t know why heughed but she noticed that just before he startedughing, he nced at her. "What is so funny?"


    "Hahaha huff" Rewen continuedughing for a while. The others present gave him a meaningful look as if aware why he wasughing. "Where haha.. did you get this costume? Did you get this from Doormart?"


    Zelic''s face turned slightly red. "It''s a ss outfit! Just treat it like I''m cosying!"


    "What ss is this?" Rewen asked with a smile.


    "[Magical Girl]."


    "There''s even a stupid ss like this?" Rewen looked at the others for confirmation.


    Salica chuckled. "Trust me, Rewen. You don''t want to go into the rabbit hole."


    "Now I''m interested"


    "Before that, what are you doing? Why are you in a formal dress?" Junar asked everyone''s most important question.


    Rewen responded in a serious tone. "Oh, I''m attending an important event. Why don''t you leave? I''lle back soon enough." If possible, he didn''t want them to know that he is getting married. No matter how thick-skinned he was, he would still find it difficult to bear with the tease in the academy.


    The others looked at each other in understanding. By the side, Sam was slyly smiling. He can''t begin to imagine the torture he would have to suffer if he betrayed his friend but that doesn''t mean that he had no options for trapping him. He looked at others with a smile signifying that there was more to the matter than the guy is letting on.


    "What kind of important event?" Gill casually asked.


    "It''s marriage." Rewen didn''t lie.


    Salica''s eyes brightened, then jokingly said. "Whose marriage? Yours?"


    Denny ced her hand on her chin remembering that Rewen had a fiance but just as she was about to raise a question, Rewen spoke out.


    "The granddaughter of Baron is getting married. I''m in charge of looking after the guests and seeing if they get good reception." Rewen t-out lied with a straight face.


    Everyone seemed to think that the exnation was believable and nodded among themselves.


    "Ah, well, good luck with that." Junar said, before starting talking among themselves.


    Rewen beamed at the sight. ''Good. From the looks from it, they would leave soon wait, that''s a g. I shouldn''t have thought of that. Fingers crossed.''


    "Haha! Is that my boy, Rewen?" A rough male voice came from a distance.


    ''Holy shit!'' Rewen realized that he had vited the rules of "fingers crossing" by crossing fingers a secondte.


    It was a middle-aged tall man with a moustache. Beside him was a beautiful middle-aged woman carrying a girl of about the age of two in her arms. The family just got out of the carriage


    Rewen couldn''t instantly figure out who the person was but after he did some digging through his memories. "..."


    It was his Uncle, Josh Lenvin.


    The middle-aged man walked over to Rewen and patted his back. "Haha! Caught you by surprise, didn''t I?"


    Rewen suppressed the shock in his heart, then asked. "I how are you doing, Uncle?"


    Josh Lenvin smiled, then ruffled his hair. "Forgive your Uncle for not being able to visit you. My boy has grown up so old, didn''t he?" He turned to his wife.


    Rewen looked at the closest person to his family after his mother and couldn''t bring out to say a single word.


    His wife, Veronica Jay Lenvin, came near to him with a smile carrying her two-year-old girl. "Do you remember the day where you said that my milk tastes better than your mother''s?"


    Instantly, Rewen woke up from his daze.


    "..."


    ''Did I really say something like that? No, that can''t be.'' Subconsciously, a small smile appeared on his face. He was awkward at conversations with his rtives so he couldn''t find a conversation topic.


    "Is this my cousin?" His eyes shifted to the cute two-year-old girl lying in his Aunt''s bosom. She had her eyes fixated on his hairs. What attracted him was that like him, she also had crimson hair. Slowly, she stretched her arms towards him. "Red! Like me! Mom! He had red!"


    She eximed in surprise and started jumping around in her mother''s bosom.


    "Call him Big Brother." Veronica helplessly pushed her towards Rewen who took her in his arms without any words.


    "Big! Big Brother! Yay! Red hair!" The two-year-old giggled and rubbed his hairs. It didn''t take long enough for her to mess up his hair. Rewen didn''t know how to deal with a kid so he could only smile wryly.


    Seeing this, Josh looked at his wife. "The red colors of both of their hairs look so simr. It''s really strange because our family never had anyone whose hair is red in color. Rewen''s case was understandable. We could somehow assume that it is a result of bloodline mutation but what about her? Two bloodline mutations at the same generation?"


    Veronica rolled her eyes. "There you go. Raising unnecessary topics of discussion. You can talk about these thingster."
