章節 86: Reminiscing
After cleaning himself, Earl arrived in front of his bedroom. He placed one hand over his heart to feel his heartbeat. It was much calmer now compared to when he let loose at the party.
He turned the doorknob slowly and entered the room. A few candles were lit which emitted a relaxing fragrance. Shadows could be seen dancing from the flickering flames of the candle.
Ari sat by the bed in a loose white robe. In the dark, her purple eyes were like the brightest stars in the night sky. Her hair was slightly wet from her shower. They fell down her shoulders and a few strands were stuck near her cleavage which was clearly visible from the looseness of her robe.
"Mom."
"Come here," She called by waving her hand.
Earl came to her side and sat close to her. Her milky scent entered his nose.
"You smell good."
"You say that every day," Ari chuckled. "Come, lie down."
Earl laid his head on her lap.
Swish.
Her robe apart and her fruits dangled over his face. Ari gently placed her nipple inside Earl's mouth.
"Relax." She whispered gently while running her hands through his hair. It was a soft and gentle touch of a guardian.
Earl relaxed his shoulders and allowed the steady stream of milk to flow. Delicious, smooth, and sweet.
As expected, his mother was someone who understood him best. She knew this was what relaxed him the most.
There was unbelievable comfort in laying on the lap of a beauty and being nursed by her. He felt like a drifting cloud. Mindless and carefree like a baby.
The taste of her milk would always bring him back to his younger years. Nothing much has changed since then but nostalgia was ever-present. The most deceiving feeling of all after love.
Hugging her waist, his mind was soon drifted elsewhere.
Ari hummed a lullaby while petting her child. While running her hand through his hair, she could feel Earl hugging her waist tighter before finally loosening his hold.
His lips gently parted away from her leaking nipple and a quiet snore soon came.
Ari levitated Earl's body up with magic and soundlessly tucked him into bed. Laying down beside the boy, she gave him a kiss on the forehead before falling asleep together.
Earl had a nostalgic dream that night. A dream about his previous life.
In his dream space, everything was white with the exception of a floating screen which showed a memory of his previous life. It was like watching a movie in his mind. The setting was a hotel room and there were two actors. The hotel room was luxurious and modern.
The entire window side of the room was made of glass. A bustling city full of skyscrapers could be seen beyond the window. Because of how high the room was, the city looked astonishingly small.
On the king-sized bed, two bodies were intertwined. The first person was a young man with an impressive build and a handsome face. The second person was a pure and innocent-looking lady. She gave off the 'girl next door' vibe. Nonetheless, she was very beautiful.
Feelings of nostalgia and sentimentality filled Earl's heart as he saw his previous self in this memory fragment. The girl in the picture was his second girlfriend.
She sobbed quietly in his arm after a passionate session of lovemaking. "Is this... really fine? For me. For her? It's not fair for her is it?" A heavy dose of guilt was apparent in her voice. She knew full well that Earl was already in a relationship.
Earl held her head and reassured her. "I'll make it work. Trust me. When have I ever gone back on my words with you?" He laughed lightly.
"That's true." Her eyes sparkled. "Fate is truly kind to reunite us like this. I love you."
Earl smiled. "From childhood to adulthood, we've always been close. That's why... I won't let you go. No matter what, I'll make this relationship work."
The scene in his memory faded before changing into another one.
This time, he was wearing a suit in public. Wearing a confident smile on his face, he grandly marched into the building which was so tall, one had to crane one's neck to see the peak of it.
It was a business deal that would pave the path for his future. In order to support his two girlfriends, he could not fail.
Prior to this, he had to prepare extensively. Business models, numbers that would appeal to this huge corporation. Countless connections he used from the various networking events he attended.
The pressure did not get to him. He succeeded and walked out of the building with a proud smile on his face.
In his dream space, the present Earl cheered his previous self on. He was proud of what he was able to achieve.
That's right...
Earl suddenly realized before bursting into laughter within his dream space.
He hasn't changed at all.
The reason why he went so far as to protect Aria and Lily at the prince's party... Wasn't it the same reason as to why he worked so hard to support his first 2 girlfriends in his previous life?
The only thing that has changed is the method which he had to use. In his previous life, it was social status and wealth. In this life, it was power.
"...Master..."
"Master?"
"Master..."
"Huh?" Earl leaked out a voice after waking up. The sight of his two beautiful maids entered his vision.
"Good morning Master. Was Master having a nice dream?" Aria asked while gently helping him get up.
"A dream..?" He said groggily
"See? Master is still not awake completely. What was Master dreaming about?"
"I don't remember?"
"Master is totally out of it today!" Lily giggled.
Earl laughed with her. "I really don't remember!"
創作者的想法 
TentacleEthics
TentacleEthics Earl's previous life experiences are critical in how he became the way he is right now. What do you guys think of these flashbacks? More?
Rest did magic to my wrist. The popping from the dislocated tendon is almost completely gone. There's still a little pain but it feels good to have a functional hand again.
