Magic's Return: I Can See The Spirits

"Do you really want to know about it?"

Astra questioned with a strange look on her face. Vaan, who noticed that expression was now even surer,

His mother, even though she was the head of the family, she was in a difficult position.

How and Why?

Vaan started wondering, however, in the end,

It didn't matter.

Since he was here, he would solve everything and make sure people show his mother the respect she deserved!

With a determined expression on his face, Vaan nodded.

"Please tell me everything."

"That butler is not the servant of our family, he was sent here by the Stormweaver Family."

"Who is this Stormweaver family? Why does it have the power to choose a servant who would serve the son of the Head of the Vesta Family?"

Vaan questioned as he narrowed his eyes. To think another family would have so much influence over his family.

Something was not right.

"You really don't remember anything, huh? To think you even forgot about her." Astra commented as she looked into Vaan's eyes.

"Who are you talking about?"

"The daughter of the Stormweaver family, Seraph-"

*Knock* *Knock*

Suddenly, Astra and Vaan heard a knock.

"Lady Astra, Lady Seraphina is here. What should we do?"

The servant who knocked on the door questioned from outside.

Astra's eyes quickly fell on Vaan's face to see if there was any change in his expression, however, seeing his confused expression, she was now sure.

Vaan had really lost all his memories.

Vaan on the other hand, was thinking about a completely different thing,

'A servant who knocked on the door and spoke without waiting for permission…'

Vaan didn't like this at all.

"Heh, what a coincidence, that girl is here. She must have heard the news."

Suddenly, Astra chuckled.

"Who are you talking about, mother?"

Vaan was quite good at reading expressions, and from how his mother was reacting, he was sure about it,

This girl whose arrival was just announced, Vaan's mother didn't like her at all.

"Seraphina Stormweaver, that's the person the butler you beat up serves," Astra informed.

Vaan narrowed his eyes. Then, he sat up.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's meet this girl." He needed to see it himself to confirm his theory. He wanted to see who was the bitch who dared to put his mother in a difficult position.

"You seem quite eager to meet her." Astra narrowed her eyes.

"Heh, I am just curious." Vaan laughed.

He was sure there was something fishy going on here. That girl most probably has something on his mother, that is the reason why his mother was reacting like that.

Vaan needed to jump in.

It didn't matter what it was.

He needed to protect his mother.

"Alright, do you want me to come with you?" Astra questioned.

Vaan realized that his mother didn't wish to see this girl, she most probably didn't wish to feel intimidated in front of her son, however, Vaan just smiled and extended his hand,

"Why not?"

Astra frowned when she heard his answer, however, seeing Vaan's hand, she smiled and then held it lightly.

The mother and son left the room and soon, they were taken to the guest room.

Inside the guest room, there sat a white-haired girl with gorgeous features, she was elegantly sitting on a sofa, sipping on a tea that was served to her with her eyes closed, she had a thin waist, her gown highlighted her curves, making many men drool over her beauty.

The door of the room opened, the girl opened her eyes as she turned towards the door, and smiled,

"It has been a while, Young Mas-"

Soon, however, her eyes fell on Astra, who was walking behind Vaan.

Her expression changed, she quickly stood up and then bowed her head,

"Greetings, Lady Astra.

Please excuse me for my previous conduct, I didn't know you were coming here as well."

Seeing this reaction, Vaan frowned.

This script… it was different from what he had in his mind…

Doesn't this woman have some kind of dirt over his mother?

Was she acting so… subservient?

Is it because he was here?

"Do not mind me, I just came here since I heard you were here and wanted to see how you were doing," Astra spoke in an authoritative tone.

"I am doing fine, Lady Vaan. I am grateful to the Vesta Family for treating me so kindly."

"That's good." Astra smiled.

Then, she turned towards Vaan and,

"Vaan, you two should chat with each other, I have some matters to attend to."

"Alri-"

Vaan wanted to reply but,

"As you say, Lady Astra." Seraphina cut his words off.

Vaan narrowed his eyes.

His eyes fell on Astra, Astra nodded at him with a smile, he nodded back, then, Astra turned around and left the room.

The moment she left, Seraphina's body relaxed, she fell on the sofa with a tired look on her face and took a deep breath.

"Haaahh…"

Vaan continued to observe her.

"So? Why was she here?" Suddenly, Seraphina questioned.

Her tone was completely different from the respectful tone she had a few seconds ago.

"Well, I can understand, she must be worried about her son. What a good mother Lady Astra is." Seraphina smirked.

Then, she glanced at Vaan and questioned,

"Anyways, did you manage to get it?"

Vaan, of course, had absolutely no clue what this girl was talking about.

However, he did realize one thing.

The one this woman had the power over, it wasn't his mother, on the contrary, she seemed rather scared of his mother and tries to create a fake image in order to please her.

The one she shows her real face, the one she holds the actual power over,

It was him.

The reason why she could hire her servant as his butler,

It wasn't because the Vesta Family or his mother was weak,

It was because he allowed her to.

He was the problem.

Vaan's narrowed his eyes, he wanted to kick this bitch out of his house because of her attitude, however, he decided to wait, he was impulsive with the butler before, but now, he needed to understand the situation first.

"I did not," Vaan replied. Waiting to see her reaction.

Seraphina sighed with a disappointed look on her face,

"You didn't, huh.

Well, I can understand, even though you are from the Vesta Family and are the son of the current head of the Family, you still do not possess much authority here."

Vaan raised his eyebrow when he heard those words.

"It seems like your mother does not trust you, but again, I can understand where she is coming from. You are only 20 years old after all. Even she herself was 25 when she took most of the family matters into her hands, she must be waiting for you to mature into a fine young man before she put more trust in you."

Seraphina nodded with an understanding look on her face.

"Anyways, I heard you beat Aldric up. Did he do anything to annoy you?"

"He was disrespectful," Vaan replied.

A slightly surprised look appeared on Seraphina's face, soon, however, her expression returned to normal and she smiled,

"Right, that is correct. He dared to be disrespectful in front of the Young Master of the Vesta Family, he ought to be punished.

You did well." Seraphine praised.

Vaan simply nodded.

There were many things in his mind, however, he decided to stay silent, today, he was just going to observe.

Seraphina continued to talk about more matters, however, she soon realized that Vaan was a little out of it today, thinking that it was probably because of the matter with Aldric, she decided not to waste her time and stood up.

Vaan didn't stop her either, the two of them said their goodbyes, and Seraphina finally left.

And once she did, Astra walked into the room and questioned with a curious look on her face,

"Do you recall who she is now?"

"Sera."
