Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure Chapter 658 Visiting in-laws (2)

Once we were right up in front of the gate, there was a commotion that ca from within.

Though we couldn't see what was happening, we could hear the sounds that ca out.

It was the sounds of people rushing to get out of the way.

Once they cald down, the captain of the guard looked at us and waved for us to co over.

The wyverns were just too big to fit through the gates, so the only way to get into the city was to fly over them. But there was a crowd that was gathered behind the gate, so they had to be evacuated first before we did this.

Once the captain of the guards gave the signal, I had Joan take the lead in flying over the gates.

The flapping of the wyvern wings generated a large amount of wind that seed to blow so of the guards down since they weren't prepared for the sudden gust of wind.

But the wyverns quickly flew over the wall and landed in the area behind the gate.

With a large 'thud' sound, they found themselves surrounded by people that had gathered to observe the wyverns. There were quite a few people that had gathered since wyverns were a rare thing in the first place.

The only ti that one would normally see wyverns was if they were being attacked by them.

There were rarely any chances to see wyverns like this.

I just ignored them all as I climbed off Joan with Veronica.

When we ca down, we saw a group walking over.

When Veronica saw them, she happily ran over with a smile on her face before jumping at one of the people that were there. The one that caught her shook her head with a bitter smile before saying, "You're in front of others, you should act like a proper lady."

Veronica just stuck her tongue out at her mother, but she didn't mind it as she kept hugging her.

It seed that the two of them were very happy to see each other again.

The duke just shook his head with a smile as he watched them for a bit, but he turned to look at eventually.

With the sa smile on his face, he said, "It's good to see you again."

There was no extra courtesy in his voice, he just spoke to as if I was a part of his family.

I had to admit that I was a bit surprised to hear him speak to like this since I thought that there would be more resistance from Veronica's family. After all, I was just a count while she was the daughter of a duke.

The difference in status should have been clear.

But it didn't seem like they were discriminating against at all.

Since they didn't discriminate against , I had no reason to not greet them properly.

With a smile on my face, I said, "Your lordship, it's good to see you again."

The duke shook his head with the sa smile before saying, "What are you saying, you should be calling father in law."

Once again, I was surprised at how easily he accepted , but it wasn't as if I disliked this.

So with a nod, I said, "Yes, father in law."

The duke gave a satisfied nod before turning to look at the wyverns.

As he looked at the wyverns, the smile that was on his face slowly turned bitter as he said, "You really gave us a surprise with these things."

I couldn't help revealing an awkward look when I heard this, but I didn't say anything to explain. After all, I wouldn't just throw my future wife under the bus because of this matter.

But to my surprise, the duke suddenly said, "It's because she forgot to send a letter that this happened, right?"

I looked at him with a surprised look, not knowing whether I should confirm this or not, but the duke just continued by saying, "I'm sorry about her. We tried to raise her well, but you should know how much of a free spirit she is, so there was nothing that we could do. I hope that you'll help us take care of her in the future."

This ti, I was the one that revealed a bitter smile.

That was because this just confird that the look that I saw from them earlier wasn't what I thought it was.

I thought it was a look that ant that they blad for this, but now…

It seed that the reason that they had looked at like that was because they were sorry for Veronica.

It seed that they had already guessed who was the one that had forgotten to inform them about this.

All I could think when I realized this was…

"As expected of her parents. They already knew everything about her."

But that wasn't strange since they had raised her since she was young, so they knew exactly what kind of personality Veronica had. They were the ones that knew her better than I did since I had spent far less ti with her.

Still, it wasn't as if I could just remain silent.

With a sigh, I said, "Even if she's like this, she does have her good sides. She's always showing different things that I never would have thought of before."

The duke revealed a faint smile before saying, "Please keep taking care of her in the future."

I said with a nod, "Of course, she will be my wife, so I will naturally take care of her."

The duke's smile beca wider when he heard this, but instead of saying sothing, he just patted on the shoulder to show his satisfaction.

After this, the wyverns were left there for the people to admire while the rest of us headed to the duke's manor.

As we left, Joan looked at with a look asking for help, but there was nothing that I could do for her.

So all I could do was give her a look that said.

"Just stick it out for now."
