My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death-Chapter 731 A Mother’s Love

-----

Frank had come to quickly congratulate Arthurious for his flawless victory, as Arthurious couldn't help but feel happy about it, he had never been praised this much by Frank before after all.

"Good job Arthurious!" He said, congratulating the boy and petting him in the head. Arthurious happily smiled, as Miriam, Gwendolyn, and Axitl also came to congratulate him.

"Congratulations, Arthurious!" Said Gwendolyn. "I never doubted you."

"Yeah, amazing work!" Said Axitl. "You and Blackie rock!"

"Well done! Blackie was amazing, and you kept your composure even when your brother insulted you… Well done!" Said Miriam, petting the boy.

"Hahaha… W-Well… Hahaha…" Arthurious laughed shyly, happy to be praised…

"Arthurious!"

However, Arthurious heard the voice of someone very close to him. He turned his head towards the origin of the voice, as he found nobody else than his beautiful mother entering the arena from the outside while guards were trying to catch her because she was entering illegally. However, her monster pets, which were all large plants and flowers were entangling themselves around the guards and not letting them step forward to catch her.

"Aagh! Stop her!"

"She got inside without permission!"

"Catch her!"

"Mother?!" Asked Arthurious, running towards his mother as he quickly made the guards stop their persecution.

"She's my mother! Stop this! I'll pay for her entrance if necessary…" He said domineeringly, as Frank and Blackie at his side made up for the intimidating factor, the guards quickly calmed down as Arthurious mother monsters stopped entangling and stopping them from moving.

"O-Oh…!"

"Lord Arthurious mother?!"

"I-I see… We apologize!" 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ

Unlike when they disrespected his brother who they brought away by force, with Arthurious it was different, they respected him as authority… he quickly realized that it all depended on his own actions and the impression he made to people, alongside his strength and that of his monster, Blackie.

Arthurious mother embraced her son in a tight hug, as Arthurious felt her chest push all over his face, making him suffocate a bit. He tried escaping her embrace but it was to no avail, as she was being overly affectionate, more than she had ever been before, actually!

"A-Arthurious… I am sorry for having been such a terrible mother this entire time… I was always afraid you would get involved in fights, and the entire competition for the throne always frightened me… But you went against all of that, and you showed me that… that you're really someone way more incredible… I… I am the only one to blame here for never having trusted my son." She cried, as she began to literally cry, covering Arthurious' head with her tears.

"M-Mother…" Muttered Arthurious, feeling slightly touched by his mother's tender words, he couldn't help but hug her back.

<br/>"You did incredible… I saw you there… It was so great… I had never seen you like this before, it inspired me to come… I know that… you may probably hate me… But I had to come to congratulate you…" Sighed his mother.

"I don't hate you, mother… Y-You're the only person in my family that I love… You've always been there for me, while everyone else despised me and bullied me, you were nice to me, you loved me… Don't say such things... I know you were afraid but… I've grown!" Said Arthurious, his adorable face suddenly showed a lot of confidence and motivation, surprising his mother even more.

"My son… You've really grown…" She sighed, kissing his forehead, and hugging him again. "Thank you for being so nice to me… I will try to be… more open… I'm sorry…"

"Mother… Don't worry." Said Arthurious. "Let's go out for now, the next fight is about to start and we are getting in the way…"

"O-Oh! Right, let's go then…" Said Alicianna.

As Arthurious and his mother spent time together, Frank looked into the arena with a face filled with contempt, he seemed to be expecting the next fight to be quite interesting as well… it was a fight involving Miriam after all!

"And the next battle is between a newcomer, a little girl and her little dragon, Miriam and Ryujin! Against a young boy… Erm, we don't know much about him but he said he used to be a former slave or something! Shiso!"

"Good luck, Miriam!" Said Gwendolyn.

"Do your best out there with Ryujin, you tow had grown plenty strong!" Said Axitl.

"Do your best!" Said Arthurious.

"A-Arthurious, is she your friend? She's very cute… Good luck, dear!" Said Arthurious' mother.

"I know you'll do well, but make sure to be careful, do not reveal all your Skills either." Said Frank. "Until the time you really need to use them."

"A-Alright! I am going then!"

Miriam walked towards the arena, as she quickly saw a young boy standing to the opposite direction. He looked malnourished, very thin, and almost of her same age… He had monochromatic eyes, one was blue and the other red, and he had white hair, spiky and nasty, filled with dust. He was wearing robes and was barefoot, and had a slave collar around his neck with a broken chain…

His appearance was very striking amongst the people, many questioned if the child was even allowed or something. And how could they let a homeless kid participate… But he wasn't just a homeless-looking kid, if he was able to get in the finals, he was definitely strong as a trainer.

"Nice to meet you, Shiso, I am Miriam!" Said Miriam. "Let's have a good and fair battle!"

Shiso looked at Miriam as he blushed a bit… But then he nodded.

"Hm. Yes, let's have a fair battle." He said with a slight smile on his half-burned face, which scared many people. "You're only using one monster? Hmm… Well, I'll use one as well to make it fair then."

"Eh? You don't have to!" Said Miriam.

"But I want to make it fair." Said Shiso with an eerie smile, Miriam suddenly felt as chill down her spine for some unexplainable reason…

"O-Okay then… if you say so…" She said.

As the battle finally began, the little Ryujin was summoned from Miriam's blue jewel, and then, Shiso summoned his own monster…

And it was…!
