Japan,
Country Side,
Galahad POV,
Galahad was right now nervous. Yes nervous, most of the time he was too lazy for such feelings but he was going to meet the one person whose every whim he would obey, it wouldn't be an understatement to say he would always do whatever was best for his family. It was obvious that with his fairly above average intelligence and efficiency prone nature he could have gotten a normal job too, lived a normal life.
But he had given that up for his family, he chose a life of killing instead. While it was true he didn't do many jobs, he did choose to kill but no it didn't mean he could say he had no other choices, many other choices were available to him. But this was the only one that would allow him to actually care for his mother most of the time.
"What are you thinking about, 'Master'?" Guy asked smirking, she was now a maid for all intents and purposes. They were currently walking down a road, fields with crops could be seen all around, electricity lines BUT they had yet to see any technology so the maids were simply trying to locate strong people unfortunately, there were none.
Galahad yawned and glanced at her, "My family." he said slightly smiling, it had been more than 2700 years now! How did he not come back earlier?! He blamed the Tensura world villains, no he wasn't a hero nor did he take care of Rimuru but he simply fulfilled his own desires, he just needed someone to blame.
"Angel or Demon?" Luminous asked curiously, if it was angel she would have to take extra care not to attack out of pure instinct. Galahad simply stayed silent, he was taking a trip down memory lane. The maids seeing him simply stayed silent, they being demons couldn't understand such attachments but that simply meant they were matters beyond their comprehension, their master was amazing.
Galahad looked around curiously, this was a beautiful country to be honest but still, the fact that she had actually moved to Japan meant that she had gone off to the deep end, like seriously who moves to Japan just because they love anime and manga?! He admitted he liked them too but it wasn't at this level!
A few minutes of walking later a traditional japanese house came into view, though calling it a house would be an understatement, it was like the Emiya house or something. He looked at it amused and scratched the back of his head, "Damn mom." he said a bit awkwardly, for her it should have been a few years since he died.
He did feel the presence of a human city some distance off but she actually just went full on 'I got money bitches' mode and bought a plot of land here after which she constructed this...'house'. Oh yeah, he needed to have a good talk with her, HOPEFULLY his talks about not spending several grand on quartz had gotten through to her and she didn't blow a lot of money on that.
He did however forget how out of place they looked right now, 7 maids following a young man dressed in a baggie hoodie and jeans and then there were the glowing eyes, and the odd colored hair AND the otherworldly appearances of all of them. He was actually confused as to why the people in passing cars sometimes took pictures, he looked completely human right now.
But that didn't matter! They had now arrived at the gates. Taking a deep breath Galahad raised his hand and knocked on the gate, he wanted in now! "Wait a moment!" a voice sounded from inside, a male voice, and that language was japanese! Did she get married to someone?! But why would the master of the house answer the door?
His question was answered when the door was opened by a guard who stared at him curiously, "May I know your business here, sir?" he asked politely in slightly broken english, Galahad looked like a foreigner after all. Galahad slightly chuckled and waved his hand, "Uhh yeah, I'm...Galahad." he said, no he wasn't into mind raping and mind controlling people! That horrified him!
"And?" the guard asked him confused, he still didn't know what he wanted here. "Wait, the lady's son?" the guard questioned totally confused, he was supposed to be dead! This meant it was someone looking for her wealth, "He died years ago, please don't joke about these matters." the guard told him politely, the Japanese were mostly a peaceful and polite people so he didn't tell Galahad to just, "Fuck off."
Galahad clicked his tongue, he could have just avoided seeing her by saving himself but his race prevented that. He could only be present in one timeline, in one place at any given moment. As a higher dimensional being there were no 'alternate' versions of him. "I have an....appointment?" he said a bit unsure, it was becoming more and more enticing just to pick him up and yeet him.
"What are you here for?" the guard asked again, completely not buying it, he wasn't about to let just anyone in. Carrera facepalmed and walked forward, she grabbed the guard by the color and lowered him down to her own height, "We're here to meet his mom, now fuck off before I make you fuck off." she said annoyed, the thing with her Master was that he chose to not kill anything that annoyed him.
The guard looked at her shocked and once she loosened her grip he immediately tried to pull out his side arm, he did just get threatened right now so it was a logical reaction but Carrera grabbed him and headbutted him knocking him out. She gave Galahad a thumbs up, "See? Much easier." she said with a cheek smile.
Galahad just sighed and patted her head before moving on, hey he didn't do it, Carrera did. So safe! Carrera looked at the other smugly before following behind him, see brute strength does solve most of your problems!
Galahad looked at the house and whistled, he had to admit that even though this place had Chuuni weeb dripping off of it, this house was a thing of beauty! Though he did prefer apartments more, you don't have to take care of much stuff and can clean up the place quickly too! But he digressed, he yawned and looked around curiously searching for his mother.
His gaze fell on an old lady sitting on the floor nearby, well he says old but her hair had just started turning white, she should be 63 or something. Compared to him, his mother was young, "Woah....that's a clusterfuck." he commented slowly moving towards her. "Hi.." he said slightly awkwardly, he didn't know how to greet her okay?!
"Uh huh. Wait a bit, just let me get rid of this stupid idiot first." she said looking at a phone? Wait what?! Her son is standing right here, a son she hadn't seen for years no scratch that, potentially someone who broke in and she doesn't even pay attention?! "Alright." Galahad nodded and sat down depressed, he was so glad to see her he felt like crying and she just brushed him off.
He sighed depressed, he missed her that much and he got brushed off! "There, there." Luminous patted his head slightly smiling, this was a new side of him to be honest. "Listen wom-" Guy was about to say something but she shut up immediately once she noticed Galahad actually glaring at her, she was to be honest shocked, this much respect for someone? From Galahad?
A few minutes of shouting coming from the phone later the woman finally let go of her phone doing a V sign, take that you stupid alien god! "Now then." she turned to the depressed young man sitting near her feet, "Who are you?" she asked curiously, how did he get the guard to let him in?
Galahad looked up smiling and scratched his cheek, "Galahad." He said quite happy, he finally met her again. The woman looked at him for a few moments before pulling out an actual gun from somewhere, what you don't understand, you point a gun at.
Galahad chuckled, at least she didn't forget her roots, pointing a gun at things you don't understand was the American way of doing things! "Kid, be honest with me. I'm not afraid to actually shoot." she said seriously, this was a bit excessive but his smile and mannerisms reminded her of someone.
"I know mom." Galahad said yawning, she did actually have training with that so he didn't doubt her words. "Kid, I'm warning you." she said even more serious, her son died and this little shit was claiming to be him! Galahad sighed, he knew this wasn't the best way to go about this but he'd rather be honest with his mother.
The maids were actually wondering what kind of toy she was holding, this style of building actually reminded them of the places described in the novels Galahad had in his library. Galahad cleared his throat and looked at her, he would probably feel suicidal after doing this but it was the best way to prove his identity, "*ehem* It is I, the one who conquered all under the Heavens, everything submits to my supreme will, and now I have returned once more! To leave my mark on this world!" he said before immediately falling over clutching his chest, goddamn that was a new realm of cringe but it should be a line only his own family knew, it was from his father after all.
