The Mech Lord

"What's wrong?" Aaron asked looking at Leo who had yet to get out of the vehicle.

"Do I really have no other choice?" Leo asked looking at him with a troubled face.

Aaron sighed again, "Bro! This is our family! Just come with me, I am sure you will remember everything fast and it won't be uncomfortable anymore."

He grabbed Leo remaining arm before dragging him along as the two went toward the main door of the huge mansion after exiting the garage which had dozens of vehicle parked in it.

'These people really are rich,' Leo muttered inwardly as he observed the place around. There were a number of servants who kept keep greeting him as 'Master Aiden' as the two made their way through the place.

The two finally reached the door and as soon as they took a step in, Leo who was still observing the place heard hurried steps approaching them.

And the next instant, he saw a beautiful woman who seemed to be around in her 20s walking down the stairs and with tears flowing down her eyes. When she got closer to Leo, she embraced him with all her might without saying a single word to him.

Leo was immediately dumbfounded and raised his hands up high in the air and turned towards Aaron with an expression that said 'What the hell!'. He was really uncomfortable after suddenly being hugged by an unknown lady.

Aaron glared at him with a menacing look on his face before turning towards the lady as his expression turned gentle, "Mom, calm down. He is fine now."

'Mom? Not Sister?' Leo looked at the lady once again. She shared a stark resemblance to Aiden with Silver white hairs and blue eyes. But didn't she looked a bit too young? Hell, he even mistook her for his sister.

"Where did you go, Aiden? Did we made some mistake to upset you? Did you know how worried everyone was?" She said with a sobbing voice while touch his cheeks gently with her palm.

Leo really didn't know how to react, why the hell was he suddenly feeling guilty looking at the crying lady when he didn't even do anything?

"Hmmn?" The lady suddenly felt something was off with Leo's body and the next instant she realized that he was missing an arm.

"W-What happened to you?" She ran her hands all over Leo's body making him even more uncomfortable, but knowing that she had assumed him to be his son, Leo didn't pull back. He could see the genuine concern on her face after all.

Aaron knew it was coming, it wasn't like they could just hide the fact. In the end, he sighed and finally let it out, "He was attacked."

Her eyes dilated and she suddenly turned to look towards Aaron.

"Who?" She asked as a chill suddenly flashed past in her eyes making Leo feel that someone had laid him down on a block of ice. He then slowly started to realize that no one in this family was normal.

"I didn't get any information on him. He hid himself well." Aaron shook his head with a grim look on his face.

The lady calmed herself down seeing that there was no lead on the case and hence turned her attention back towards Leo with a gentle look on her face before pulling him inside, "Come in first, I have made all your favorite dishes today."

Aaron wanted to stop and let her know about Leo's mental situation but she had already pulled him inside by now. He knew he had to inform her upfront about it, because if Leo just said that she wasn't his mom to her face, he could imagine her heart breaking into pieces.

As he rushed after them, a loud voice suddenly stopped everyone dead in their tracks, "You dare to come in here without even a slightest bit of guilt on your face!!!"

Leo raised his head to see one of his idols standing near the railing on the first floor. His eyes immediately were filled with reverence looking at the man but the same couldn't be said for him. He was literally shaking in anger.

It was then that Leo realized that the man wasn't looking at him as his fan but as his son.

"Whoosh!"

Edgar jumped off the first floor and his body slowly descended to the ground landing right in front of Leo.

He was really tall and had that aura around which made people hard to breathe. It seemed he had just rushed here from his work and was still in his Military attire with a big overcoat hanging on his back which seemed to read 'Marshal'. He even had a scabbard tied to his waist and it definitely menacing to Leo for some reason.

"Do you not have anything to say, Aiden?" He asked with a frown when he saw Leo staring at him with a weird look in his eye and it only pissed him more. To him it seemed that his son had failed to realize his mistake, "Do you not feel shame returning with that face? Why did you come back when you don't even seem to have an ounce of regret?"

Leo turned his head to look at Aaron with a face, 'Bro? I can leave?'

Aaron groaned inwardly, it was obvious that his father was just trying to scold him and make him realize his mistake, 'Did he really lose his ability to lose his ability to think as a Glorian?'

Obviously Leo knew about it as a human. But this was Gloria and he didn't knew if Glorian's behave in this way too and was just confirming it.

It was also Leo's first time getting scolded like this as his father never scolded him, it was actually the opposite in his case and he was the one always scolding his father for messing around instead of doing some actual work.

"Apologize to him." His mother quietly whispered from the side.

"I heard that, Viona." Edgar glared at the pair of mother and son before speaking out, "He will not be staying in this house until he realizes his mistake. This time he lost his arm, do you want him to continue like this until he loses his life? He needs to understand what is wrong and what is right!"

He seemed to have meant not inside the house but Leo took it otherwise and once again looked at Aaron but the guy didn't reply.

"Do you really need to be so hard on him?" Viona frowned and pulled Leo behind her while glaring at her husband. "Isn't this why he left? You punish him the moment he returns instead of asking why he left like that."

Sparks suddenly began to fly around between the couple when Leo suddenly raised his hand and spoke in, "Excuse me, but if you don't want me, I am more than happy to leave."

"…"

The place suddenly turned quiet for a second.

'Sh*t!' Aaron cursed inside and immediately rushed in to support his fainting mother and stop his raging father who was about to unsheathe his sword.

….

A few minutes later…

The family sat on their dinning table with Leo being the center of the attention. There concerned gazes were really a bit too much for Leo to handle, he wasn't crazy or mentally ill. But they weren't believing him at all.

Both Edgar and Viona had gone silent and worry covered their faces. It really was hurting to see their child not even recognizing them as their parents and addressing them as Sir and Madam.

Leo wasn't liking this too and sighed looking at their sad faces.

Was faking it and pretending to be their son the right thing for him to do?

He didn't know. But he somehow couldn't bring himself to do that.

"Aiden, do you really don't recognize me?" Viona asked as she looked at Leo with glistening eyes.

How could Leo say yes when she made a face like that? In the end, he was left with his mouth opening and closing but nothing actually came out of it.

"He must be tired, honey. Let him go and have some rest." Edgar looking at Leo's helpless face stepped in to help. He didn't know much about mental health but he realized that forcing him to accept things was not a solution and might even do worse than any better.

A servant came and led Leo towards his room and the family reunion ended on a sad note.

As soon as Leo was gone, both Edgar and Viona's face changed and they looked at Aaron, "Go in detail about all the event that had transpired."

Aaron nodded having already taken out the details regarding the incident.

…

"The guy lives pretty simply for a rich person," Leo muttered as he looked around the room.

He could say that the guy wasn't interested much in spending money for sure. There were some gym equipment around in the room and aside from that, there were posters of Mech around as well. It seemed the two shared some interest at least.

Aside from that there were the basic stuff which everyone had. A projection screen inside the wall and then there was a sound system, it seemed Aiden liked music another hobby which matched with Leo.

He then saw a rack filled with training gears. There was even a long shiny spear which was kept hooked on the wall and Leo could tell that it was one of the most expensive item around.

Don't underestimate his eyes, he had been appraising items for a long time now.

After looking around for a while, Leo settled down.

He then unpacked his stuff and sat on the comfy bed before taking out a cube which had apparently been left behind by his father. Kyle had said to him that his father had been taken by a Viking man and before he left, he had place the cube on the bed.

Luckily, Kyle had managed to get his hands on it and then pass it onto Leo.
