Chapter 92: Chapter 25 : Happy Birthday, Urien!

Days moved on and the day of my coming-of-age ceremony arrived. This is the first time I celebrated my birthday party after arriving in this world.

All the people I had invited are already in the ballroom. I just need to walk past this door to meet with everyone. Unlike my 5th-year-old birthday when the two bastards tricked me to shoulder all of their debts, this time… this time will be with the people who care for me.

With a smile on my face, I walked past the door with a large stride.

3rd POV

As Urien walked past the door, all the people inside the ballroom turned their heads toward him. The Adventurers' Guild Gregorios territory branch guild master, the second princess of the Starfall Empire, the self-proclaimed hater of Gregorios from the demon kingdom, the head of one of the biggest companies in the Empire, the daughter of the Duke, most of the people in the room right now are not someone a simple Count could invite to their party.

But all of the people smiled brightly when they saw Urien coming into the room. Well, aside from the self-proclaimed Gregorios hater that is.

"Happy birthday, dear brother," Delfina arrived in front of him and gave him a big hug.

"Happy birthday," Jolan smiled at the sight of her nephew who saved her from slavery.

"Seeing you grow up like this, this Keith doesn't even know how to describe his feeling," the head butler of the house is wiping away his tears.

"Thank you for inviting me to this party, Lord Gregorios," the guild master, Isabel Vina, thanked the Lord who invited her.

And just like that, people came and thanked Urien one after another.

"Urien! We came!" The daughter of the Duke, Yubel Zestina, arrived near Urien together with her friend, Aretha Aisling.

"Thank you for inviting us nanodesu," the timid girl thanked Urien.

"It's okay—," just as he was about to reply to the two girls, a loud shouting could be heard near them.

"I need to do what?!" the Demon King disguised as a normal general of the Demon Kingdom shouted.

"HAHAHAHA!!!" The people around them were laughing including the man's daughter, Cecilia Rose.

"As I was saying, you look 24/7 sleepy. I recommend suicide to make sure you get enough sleep," the one who is talking with him is the head nurse of the Gregorios territory, Florence Nightingale.

Yubel's face paled after seeing the man who was arguing with the nurse she had seen in one of the gacha games.

"That is the Demon King! What the hell is he doing here?!" she screams internally.

"Hey… Urien. Who is that man arguing with the pink-haired lady?" she asked her friend.

"Oh… that old man? He is Cecilia's father," her friend replied with a shrug.

Urien was picked up from the ground before the three of them noticed and the head of the poor Urien was pushed into the chest of the woman taller than them.

"Is… is that?" Yubel thought after seeing the woman.

"Hawawawa… it can't be!" Aretha silently thought.

"It is the Lancer version of Arturia Pendragon!" Both of them screamed inward.

"Happy birthday, Urien!" she congratulates her summoner/Master/son without letting him breathe.

*muffle* *muffle* *muffle*

"You are suffocating him," the four of them heard an emotionless voice not far from them.

"Oh, you are right," only then did Aria notice and drop Urien to the ground and pick up the girl and hold her like a kitten.

And just like that, Yubel got another fright after seeing the girl.

"Why is that cheat character doing here?!" she had a sudden urge to pull out all of her hair.

"Urien? My dear friend…," she started.

"Yes, Yubel?" Urien replied.

"Who is she?" she got straight to the point.

"Oh, you mean Heulwen? She is my little sister!" the boy answered without knowing why Yubel asked.

"I… haven't heard about her before," she added.

"Of course, you won't. I would be surprised if you already knew about her. I adopted her last month, on my way back home from your party," he grins while pats his sister's head.

"Who in their right mind would adopt the literally cheat character as a little sister?! She is so OP that even the Goddess of Light needs to come down directly and aid the heroes to stop her rampage in Part 6 of the game! Even then, the girl didn't die!" She had a sudden urge to return back to her territory and kill herself. Even though she does not admit it, she once requested her father to lend her some men to search for the girl.

"I wasn't able to find her after searching for a few months but he was able to find… no, he found her in such a short amount of time. As expected of Urien, who is protected by the protagonist's aura," she nodded her head.

At the time, the door was opened loudly with a bang.

"My lord! Your trusted subordinate, Macha, has returned just in time for your birthday!" said the girl with blue hair as she walked stride into the room.

Urien smiles when he sees the girl walking into the room. Macha is one of the few people he could put his trust in. And without doubt, she is good at the art of war.

He hugged the girl before she could kneel before him. "Welcome back, Macha. Thank you for your hard work," he whispered into her ear while hugging her gently.

This time, it is Aretha who was shocked after seeing the girl who came inside the room. "Isn't that the person from the deck Elle-chan used?" she thought. "There are many people I could recognize in this room, nanodesu," she looked around.

"M-m-my lord! We are in the public!" Macha shyly separated from Urien.

"It's okay. That was the reward for your trouble, Macha," Urien smiles at her.

"This is it! Urien's flirting without knowing skill!" Yubel screams internally. "The capture target from Silent Silver route doesn't like to talk. But when he does, he unconsciously flirts with the girl he is talking to," Yubel informs nobody.

"I am sorry, my lord. Akame and the rest are on the mission I gave them 5 months ago," Macha apologized.

"It's alright, Macha. I trust you, keep up the good work. But now, relax and enjoy the party," Urien said goodbye to Macha.

"Well, let's go and enjoy ourselves, shall we?" he asked the two girls to which the two of them nodded absentmindedly.

And just like that, the party continues until the evening.

"Hey, monkey!" Urien turned around as he heard someone calling him.

"What is it, brat?" he answered.

"This is the letter my elder sister wanted me to give to you," Ulah took out the letter from her bag and gave it to Urien who was sweating heavily.

"Oh… okay," he nodded and took the letter even when he didn't want to take it.

"I will be going back now because I have something to do back in the capital. See you there next month," she nodded and turned back.

Urien quickly opened the letter after seeing the second princess left.

"Happy birthday, Urien! Wait for me, I will be coming for you someday," was written inside the letter.

Cold sweat is forming on his forehead. "Did she notice that I scammed her?"

And so, more and more guests left after the party finished. Only the people living inside the mansion are left.

It was a tiring day for all of them. Especially for Urien as he needed to smile all the duration of the party.

Nobody had any energy left to talk anymore and returned back to their sleeping quarters.

Urien walked inside his room followed by Luna.

"Luna, I will be going on the <Multiverse Travel> again," he said after lying on the bed.

"Please take care, Master," she bowed.

"Of course!" he grinned.

{System, I am ready for the <Multiverse Travel>} He said to his system after giving a thumbs up to Luna.

Year xxx, Date xx, Previous Era

Location: Somewhere around Australia

It was hell. A strange lady suddenly appeared in the sky and started burning down everything on her way.

She has fiery red hair with her eyes burning bright with fire.

In order to fight against this powerful opponent known as the 7th Herrscher, Dr. MEI proposed to insert the useful Emperor Class Honkai genes and DNA into the human body in order to give them a better chance against the Honkai. And those who underwent the test will be called MANTIS, (M)assively (A)ugmented (N)eo-(T)ech (I)ntegrated (S)oldiers.

To battle the 7th Herrscher, many people volunteered to undergo the test. But only two people survived. The first one is Kevin Kaslana, and his gene donor was the Emperor Class Honkai Codenamed Parvati with the power of freezing the water molecule.

The second one to undergo is Urien Gregorios. His gene donor was the Emperor Class Honkai Codenamed Vayu with the power of manipulating the wind.

The two of them were immediately dispatched to battle against the enemy rampaging in Australia.

The two of them fought hard against the Herrscher with the help of the backup sent by the HQ. The battle lasted for nearly a day but they had won. Humanity had won against the 7th Herrscher. The only thing they needed to do is to kill the woman.

"I am sorry, Himeko," a white-haired boy was straddling the lying body of the woman with a sword in his hand.

The woman said nothing and touched his cheek while smiling.

"Don't be. Between humanity and me, you chose humanity. And I am proud of you," she said weakly.

"I am sorry. I am sorry. I am sorry. I am sorry. I am sorry," the words keep on repeating like a broken cassette and tears are falling down from his eyes like a broken dam.

"Now, do what you need to do," there is not a hint of anger in her eyes as she had already accepted her death.

"Himeko… I love you," he said while aiming his sword to the heart of the woman.

"And… I only wanted to create a peaceful world for the two of us," Himeko said weakly as the sword stabbed her heart.

The relationship started as childhood friends had ended just like that when Urien killed his beloved with his own hands.
