Bab 296: The Demon King

They arrived at the mansion Aleksis had visited when she was a child. There wasn't much change there and everything was almost as she remembered. The building was large and sturdy, with a large yard and garden at the back which was filled with beautiful bonsai plants.

She happily wandered into the living room, library, and out into the backyard. Alaric just looked at her in amusement. He placed Little Prince Siegfried in a basket lined with soft towels and let him sleep there.

He then went to Aleksis, who was standing on the marble stairs leading to the backyard, looking at the garden which housed various beautiful bonsai plants, his works of art.

"Hmm..."

His voice moved Aleksis. The girl immediately turned around with amazed eyes.

"This garden is better than what I remember. Do you still do it yourself?" she asked.

Alaric nodded.

"You are such a complicated person..." commented Aleksis.

"Complicated?" Alaric frowned.
