ARCHDEUS

SPRING(1)

Day after day went on, month after month continued, and it did not feel like season after season had changed.

It is spring, now, the season in the Hexatheist Belief is considered a new beginning and the first season endowed by the God Elirael (God of the Sun) after the God Cearael (God of Darkness) gave the Season of the Elimination of Sin (Winter) to the whole living things.

It doesn't feel like Alex is 16. Everything has changed ....

Alex is now seen to have a height of 182 cm or increased 6cm from the previous year which has a height of 176 cm. In addition, his body also looks much more robust. The shape of the muscles in his chest, abdomen, and arms is clearly visible in ideal proportions.

However, one thing that has not changed from Alex is ....

"Where is Young Master Alex?"

A waitress carrying a tray filled with food asked a younger waitress.

"I didn't see him coming out of the room. Maybe he's still asleep" replied the younger waiter.

The female servant carrying the tray could only let out a resigned breath. He should know that. As one of the senior servants in the mansion, there was no way he would not know the habits of the eldest young master.

After thanking the younger servant, the older servant walked back. This time he went straight to Alex's room.

But did not have time to knock on the door of the room, a silver-haired male servant with a height of 162 cm came.

"What's wrong?"

The man's servant asked the maid.

"Anu, Madam Clara gave this to Young Master."

Although this maid was obviously older than this man's maid but she felt very nervous. Clearly, this female servant was only a regular servant while the male servant was the personal servant of Young Master Alex. So hierarchically the position is lower than the male servant.

"Give me. I'll give it to him."

"Good!"

The female servant gave the tray full of food to the male servant politely. After that he left awkwardly.

The male servant didn't care. He then knocked on the door of the young master's room. But there is no answer.

This man's maid actually has Alex's spare room key. She usually uses it to wake up or see Alex if there are any important conditions.

The man's maid decided to go into the room with the key but it turned out that the room was not locked. Finally the servant decided to go straight in.

In the room he saw a spacious bed with a canopy dominated by gold and white.

On the bed fell asleep a tall, wheat-skinned man. The sun had long risen, but this man was still asleep. More precisely this man named Alex went back to sleep after breakfast.

The man's servant decided to put the food on the table that the young master usually used to eat.

The servant approached the master's bed. He hesitated to wake the master. As he always woke her up, as often as he got counseling sessions 1 credits.

Suddenly Alex opened his eyes. His blood-red eyes reflected the sunlight making him shine even more.

He blinked a few times before finally focusing on the male servant who was standing still in front of him.

"Justin? What's up?"

Alex yawns before finally lifting his upper body.

"Sir, Mrs Clara gave you a cake."

The waiter named Justin answered stiffly. Although they have been together for a long time but the nature of his feet still remains.

"Is that so? Is that from the new recipe?"

"So you think so, my lord."

"Hm ...."

"Hmm .. This is sweet."

Alex loves sweet food. In less than five minutes, all the food was gone. He then drank the tea that was also available at the table.

"Not bad, it's delicious" Alex said.

"Yes Sir. Madam is really good at cooking."

Alex just nodded. As winter progressed, whether it was slaves, commoners, or nobles, all outside activities of the house came to a halt. Everyone stays at home during the winter.

Utilize food that has been stored for a long time to live and warm the body from the furnace or magic items. During that time, extroverts inevitably become introverts and introverts are clearly getting zeroeps.

In hindsight winter was Alex's favorite season because during those three months he only slept, ate, and boker like a pig.

Hah .. well indeed I should have descended into this world to become a pig only.

Alex nodded inwardly as he thought of his future plans for a return to Univorsum.

"Master, don't you want to get out? It is the first day of spring. Miss Merry and Young Master Alven are playing outside" Justin said.

Merry and Alven are adopted by Alex in the summer. That means they have been adopted for about 8 months. Alven is the new name Alpha has.

Unlike Merry, the adoption of the Alven was easier. Maybe because Harol still has feelings of guilt for Alex and the two children. While Clara will obviously always agree whatever Alex requests.

Alpha has a new name, Alven Clovis Alexandreia. This means that he is currently a member of the Alexandreia Family and becomes the oldest child if he follows the age. Surely the news of the adoption of Alven which was shortly after the adoption of Merry again became a byword for the county community. Many think that Alven is another illegitimate child of Alex. Moreover, with the rumors that Alex and Regis have always played with the women in the brothels reinforces that assumption. So many believe that Alven or Merry is the son of a prostitute Alex has used.

But all the voices were certainly silenced because the House of Fertiphile had issued a statement that the two children were from commoners and had no blood relation to the Fertiphile Family. It's not all true. Merry's slave-derived status and Alven (Alpha) status derived from the lab specimen were not made public. This is because of their poor background so that in the end they were declared by the House of Fertiphile as an orphan adopted by Alex.

Many people do not believe this news. Because, this is too rare considering the nobles have high self-esteem. They couldn't possibly divide their noble status so easily especially Alex who was seen as a trashy noble by the society. Fortunately whatever it is, the statement from the House of Fertiphile is official and no one dares to violate it.

After Alex and Justin finished talking, Alex finally agreed to come out.

At least his sleep time was enough so it was no problem for him to breathe new air on the first day of this spring.

"Huh .. cold."

Although it has changed seasons but there are still piles of snow and the air is still not fully warmed. Alex uses a coat to warm himself up.

"Dad! Daddy!"

From afar, two figures were running towards Alex at full speed. One was a girl named Merry and the other was a boy named Alven. Both are wearing winter clothes.

Merry darted like a torpedo into Alex's arms.

"Dad! Daddy's! It's snowing!"

Both of Merry's hands clasped a snow-white hunk then placed it on Alex's cheeks.

Merry laughed happily when her father was surprised by the coldness that came suddenly.

Alex just smiled with his girlish nature. He then gently stroked her son's head.

Meanwhile, Alex feels the legs of his pants are pinched by a small claw. He caught a glimpse of a boy beside him who looked down embarrassed while clasping Alex's trouser legs.

With their height adrift, Alex lowered his head and grabbed the boy before holding him.

Now these two little boys are in Alex's arms. It is fortunate that Alex is now a little diligent in training so that his physical strength is getting stronger. So the weight of these two children was not a problem for him.

"Are you guys having fun?"

The faces of these two children look reddened due to the cold temperature but the smiles from their faces actually show a warm feeling. When Merry was a slave, he hated and feared winter. That's because every day the sun that always accompanied him was never seen and coupled with the cold temperatures in the stables made him often catch the flu.

It was no different with Alven, nor did he like winter. When Alven was still an Alpha (A-25), whenever he touched and felt the cold of the snow, he would be reminded of the cold corpses of his friends who had been victims of experiments. Both Merry and Alven both hate winter and snow but now they don't want both of those things to go.

Who would have thought the warmth of this family that was not bound by blood became an attractive spectacle for the residents of the mansion, especially the maids. They looked over from behind the window and could not help but be amazed by the harmony of the family. Especially when looking at their young master who was a trash who smiled at the two children. Subconsciously the female servants began to have different judgments towards this trashy young master. They used to feel disgusted because this young master was weak and looked like trash who often went in and out of the brothel along with his fellow trash (Regis). But now, unmarried servants are starting to think about finding a future husband who looks like Alex. Even married waitresses had the thought of cheating on a man like Alex. But whatever it was, they looked fascinated by the figure they had previously despised.
