Arpious of the Planes

I had to keep all my belongings tightly close to me just so I wasn't robbed in dead daylight without me even knowing what was happening.

"Huh? Isn't that?"

All of a sudden, Quincy pointed out a carriage that began to stroll down the street, carried by very burly and muscular horses.

The carriage looked as if it was for nobles, and the woman sitting peacefully inside locked eyes with me.

"Mom?" I muttered, my entire being freezing in place as I stared into the singular glass pane.

But, as the carriage grazed past the road, the woman inside didn't even come out to say anything, as if she had already forgotten about me.

"Babe? What's wrong?" Quincy asked as she placed her hand on my shoulder.

"I-I might just be seeing things, but I swear I saw my mother in that carriage… l-let's follow it. We can save the shopping for later, right?"

"If that is what you wish," Quincy responded with a smile, and after giving me a kiss, we quickly began to follow the carriage, the person inside slumping down in her seat.

She looked a bit different than my mother, who had left, as she had a crown of horns and looked a bit more mature, but everything else pointed towards her being my mother.

I almost cried upon seeing her until a voice inside of my head locked my legs down and pulled my eyes downwards.

"Ugh… I should stop chasing after her… but I need to figure out if that is my actual mother. Yeah, I need to tell her about Auntie Fol," I convinced myself to follow her even longer, and eventually, she arrived at the main palace.

My heart sank as I saw my literal and actual mother. The spitting image of her leaves the carriage before walking into the palace uninterrupted by the guards.

So, I quickly followed her inside the palace and saw her eventually open the door to the throne room and casually greet the king.

"Yeah, the borders are still fucked. Anyway, what are you going to be doing about these information leaks? We can't do anything until they're patched up," My mother said, explaining the very same thing that the princess and I were having qualms about.

"I've already had my daughter contact your daughter about how to solve the problem,"

My mother's face crumpled with disappointment as she looked up at the king, who was sitting arrogantly on his snowy throne.

"You absolute idiot…" my mother muttered.

"You insolent-!"

All of a sudden, one of the knights who reluctantly escorted my mother into the throne room lifted his spear, only to be blown to bits of flesh and blood upon raising his voice towards her.

"Train your men better," She muttered before continuing her speech. "My daughter is too weak to handle such a problem. Your daughter may be smart and all, but what we need is a general at the front lines. I would love to do it myself, and I would love my wives to help out, but they know all the counters for us… plus, I don't want to risk them. So, the choice is to send more men or create a general worthy of leading them… unless you would like to do it… or are you scared?" My mother provoked the king, an instant death sentence for any normal person.

"Hoh… That doesn't sound like that much of a bad idea. My wife is more than competent enough to lead and control this kingdom… plus, I think she might be better at handling the noble affairs anyway… alright, you are dismissed," The king said, and under my mother's glare, she reluctantly left the throne room, her palm on her forehead.

And, just as she was about to exit the doors I was currently peeking through, I instinctually hid behind a small indent in the wall and calmed down my breathing.

But, just as I began to reign in the control of my breath, a single pale-white hand gripped the edge of the indent, and a pair of cold eyes landed on me.

"I knew my eyes weren't deceiving me," She muttered before reaching her hand towards me, causing me to shrink back with fear.

This wasn't the same kind and gentle mother I used to know… what if she ends up trying to kill me or capture me or torture me?

As I squeezed my eyes shut, awaiting my destiny… I realized nothing soon happened, and I slowly opened my eyes.

"Do you want help getting up or not?" My mother asked, and tears nearly welled up in my eyes as I took her hand and stood up right next to her.

She had an exhausted smile on her face as she stared deep into my eyes, seemingly reminiscing about good times.

"Will you forgive me if I ask for forgiveness?" She asked, and my instant response slipped from my mouth.

"N-No… I can't forgive you. Auntie Fol has been deathly sick ever since you left and Loki has been out doing his own thing… The kingdom might just fall from his trickery," I chuckled, and my mother's smile increased a bit more before she hugged me.

Her warmth was too much to handle, and I immediately began to cry into her neck as I was just a bit shorter than her.

"I'm sorry for being such a terrible mother," She said before kissing the top of my head.

…

As I looked up at the massive status, I began to tear up more as I knew now it really was her.

"Don't leave me ever again; otherwise, I'll lie to mom, and she'll punish you,"

My mother chuckled lightly before splitting apart, allowing me to see Quincy, who lightly smiled at the reunion between us.

"Hello, I'm sure you don't remember me, but I was a knight who went on an expedition with you before. But, I am currently acting as the Princess' guard,"

I frowned slightly before speaking the truth.

"She's my new girlfriend, so please be nice to her," I begged, and my mother's eyes sank before turning cold and looking at Quincy.

She shivered under her deathly cold eyes and could barely hold eye contact as she wanted to stay strong.

"A mere knight dares to court a princess?" She asked.

"M-Mother-"

"I apologize, but I still love her. I would be willing to even give up my life to stay beside her, so please don't interfere with our relationship,"

I turned to Quincy as if she was insane, but my mother suddenly smiled brightly before saying,

"Then welcome to the family,"
