Lucky 349
Calix immediately controlled his emotions and smiled. He greeted Berto with a "nice to meet you" nod.
Berto returned the gesture, then looked at his mother.
"Mom, this man is...?"
"Oh, he's a reporter. You know, like in the old days. But he's a nice guy, so I let him in."
"But Mom, you should be careful, okay? You can't just let people into your house like that."
"Oh come on, I'm the one we're talking about here. I can protect myself." The woman winked.
"So? What's with your eyes? Have you been crying? Did that reporter make you cry?"
Berto looked at Calix. His voice was as clear as it could be, and Calix kept his somber expression without making a sound.
"You stupid, Mr. Reporter didn't make me cry... I... I just made a mistake and thought he was your sister. His eyes were like your sister's."
In their family, only Clara had green eyes, so it was hard to ignore the comparison.
"Okay," Berto sighed. He thought his mother was being bullied.
"Don't worry, sir, I'll leave now. Ma'am, thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak with you. Now, would you please excuse me?"
Calix gathered his things and stood up. He looked at them and said goodbye. He knew the situation was bad for him. Berto would identify him and his mission could be compromised...
Furthermore, Calix realized that the man he fought in the Ancient Library was actually his uncle!
What a coincidence!? They almost killed each other!
So Calix decided to escape before things could get worse.
"Really? I'll prepare some cookies and tea."
"I'm fine, ma'am. Then have a nice day."
Calix steeled his heart and walked through the door. Even though Berto was staring at him, he greeted him for the last time and left.
"I thought he was going to ask for more information, I guess he felt bad that he disturbed your visit."
Mrs. Palina Alb said as she stared at Calix's silhouette. Her heart was still restless when she thought that Calix resembled her daughter.
"Berto, do you think this boy is your nephew?"
She said, but she was not sure.
"You mean Calix? Clara's son who's in Dellia? If he really is in Junian right now, then I will beat Andreas for keeping it a secret."
Berto replied, his eyes deep in thought.
"... Never mind, I'm probably just missing my daughter."
She shook her head and smiled bitterly. Maybe she was still affected by the death of her daughter and her husband. Losing two members of her family was heartbreaking.
"Mom..."
"I'm fine."
She assured him. Berto hugged his mother and comforted her. Mrs. Alb was already old and lived her life in ths lonely house. Berto wanted her to live with him, but Mrs. Alb never wanted to let go of the house, because this place meant a lot to her.
"Where is your son? Does he not want to visit me? You are on vacation, right?"
"Don't worry, he said he would come."
Berto sighed. His marriage was in shambles and he was divorced. Even his son's last name was not Alb, because Berto's ex-wife was a stubborn woman.
"Then I will prepare nice dishes!"
She clapped her hands happily and went into the kitchen.
Berto, who was left alone in the living room, looked in the direction Calix was going.
"If I remember correctly, that man stole something. I swear, Andreas is an asshole in educating his son! He let his son become a criminal! What a father!"
Confirmed. Berto resents Andreas, probably because he blames Andreas for Clara's death.
.......

...
"Did I escape?"
Calix wondered, turning around to see if anyone was following him. He sighed in relief when he realized that no one was following him.
He was back to being an emo guy with bangs over his face, not a clean-cut reporter.
"I thought he was going to attack me. His look is pretty scary. Damn, I never know if my uncle is really strong!"
He was not confident that he could defeat someone like Berto. Unlike Esmeralda, who specialized in darkness. Berto had unique abilities that could defend against his luck.
'Maybe it's because my uncle and I are from the lineage of High Elves, that's why we have strong powers.'
To be fair, Esmeralda Margaret was a Dark High Elf too.
"Shit's going to get worst if we fight."
He was not the protagonist, Calix knew that long ago. But in a way, everyone was the protagonist of their own stories.
"Huh? Lucky, is that you? Man, I never expected to see you here!"
While Calix was busy with his own thoughts, someone greeted him.
"Hey, Quandale Dingle here!"
"Huh? Quandale? Why are you here?"
It was a shock for him to see one of his friends in this place. Maybe he lived here.
"I'm here to visit my grandmother."
The two dabbed and talked.
"What about you, man, why are you here?"
"I was exploring the capital when my feet brought me here. This place is nice. It's quiet, unlike the city."
"Indeed. Anyway, let's play again when the vacation is over."
"Have a nice vacation, bro."
"You too, bro!"
The two separated.
"I can't believe I'm going to see Quandale here.
"What are you doing here?"
"Oh shit!"
When he was far away from the village, Calix almost had a heart attack when a guy appeared behind him. He immediately turned around and pulled out his necklace.
"Interesting weapon you have."
Calix's weapon turned into an SMG MP7 and he pointed it at Berto, who appeared out of nowhere.
"Unfortunately, that thing won't work on me."
"What do you want?"
Calix became serious. Even if the person in front of him was his uncle, Calix was not afraid to pull the trigger. He was not close to him anyway. His life over a strange uncle, of course.
"I should ask you, what do you want from us?"
Berto was not joking. He stood there, threatening! Even his posture was commanding.
"..."
Gritting his teeth, Calix's body was wrapped in a Battle suit. In case Berto attacked him and sent him to the strange office rooms.
