Chapter 325: Chapter 324 – Grey?

After I finished having fun with Freya, we took a bath together, and only then did she go to get our son. As soon as she entered the room carrying him and he saw me, he burst into joyful laughter.

I walked over and picked him up.

The moment I held him, he hugged me while laughing. Freya looked at us and smiled. “It seems like he likes you more than me,” she said with a discouraged sigh. I held our son by the waist and lifted him up.

While playing with him, I said, “He likes both of us equally, right?”

Our son heard my question and replied, “Yes!”

I looked at Freya and said, “See? He loves us both equally.”

“It’s just that he always seems to have more fun when he’s with you.”

“Probably because I took him to the dungeon. He really liked it and must be excited for me to take him there again, right?”

“Yes! Hehehe!” he replied.

“No way. You can take him to the dungeon when he’s older.”

Hearing Freya, our son clearly became sad. He pouted and was about to cry. Freya noticed but didn’t change her mind. “Crying won’t help. I’m doing this for your safety.”

“I’m the strongest person in this city right now, Freya. Do you think I would let anything happen to our son?” I placed him in Freya’s arms, and she hugged him.

While holding him, she replied, “You could even be the strongest god in the world. I still don’t want him going to dangerous places at such a young age.”

Well, she’s a mother worried about her child. I can understand that.

“Alright, alright~~” I said with a long sigh. “Now let’s think of a name for our son.”

I can’t stand the idea of my son not having a name anymore.

“So suddenly?”

“We’ve talked about this before. Didn’t you come up with any ideas? I already said I’m terrible with names.”

“I didn’t think of anything either…” Freya then looked at our son’s face and said, “His hair is silver like mine. Why don’t we call him Grey?”

Hearing that, I was speechless.

“Why didn’t you say you’re just as bad with names as I am? I could’ve asked other people for suggestions.”

“Is it really that bad of a name?” Freya looked confused.

“Of course it is. It’s the name of a color.”

“But it’s a beautiful color, and the name sounds nice when you say it. Grey… Grey… Grey…”

Our son looked at her indifferently. He didn’t seem to like or dislike the name.

Honestly, I don’t think “Grey” is a horrible name, but still…

“Why don’t we ask other people for name ideas? I can ask members of my Familia… and you can ask your ’friends.’”

“That’s not a bad idea. But we have to decide on a name tomorrow. I’ll come visit you in the morning.”

“You’re leaving already?”

“Yes, I have a lot to do today.” I walked up to our son and kissed his cheek. “Daddy will come visit you tomorrow, okay?”

“Okay!”

“So smart!” I exclaimed in surprise. “And you, take good care of him,” I said to Freya.

Freya clicked her tongue and said, “Of course I’ll take good care of him.”

“Good.” I stepped closer in an instant and kissed her on the lips.

Freya was surprised, but before I could say anything else, I disappeared.

POV: Mikoto

I was in my room, anxiously waiting for Luan to call me so we could go to the dungeon. I had already cleaned my sword in preparation, even though he said we would buy a new one for me.

Lying on the bed, I kept swinging my feet, trying to control my anxiety.

’It’s been a long time since I’ve gone out with him. It’s also been a long time since I’ve been to the dungeon. There’s no way I can control my excitement.’

And so, long minutes passed.

Then an hour. Then two…

It was already past lunchtime, and I was very hungry since I hadn’t eaten anything.

’Where is he?’ I thought, getting up from the bed and leaving my room. As soon as I stepped out, I ran into Luan in the hallway.

“Lunch is ready. You can come downstairs and eat something before we go,” Luan said with a smile.

“You were preparing lunch?”

“Yes, I started over an hour ago.”

I had been inside my room waiting for him like an idiot, thinking he would come to call me.

But in the end, he had been preparing lunch for everyone.

“Alright, thank you. I’ll eat and then take a shower so we can go.”

“Enjoy your meal.” Luan walked past me and headed to his room.

I went downstairs and saw Hestia, Lili, and Haruhime all sitting at the table eating. Luan was probably on his way to call me for lunch when we ran into each other.

I smiled and sat down.

While I was eating, Luan came downstairs wearing clean clothes and a very pleasant fragrance.

After sitting down, he said, “I’m already prepared to go. I’m not very hungry, so I’ll just eat a little.”

“Okay,” I replied and began eating as quickly as possible.

“To go? Where are you two going?” Lili asked.

“Mikoto didn’t tell you? We’re going on a date,” Luan said, smiling at me.

That made my heart race, and I felt extremely embarrassed.

After that, Lili started asking several questions about our date.

Luan answered all of them while I filled my stomach as quickly as I could. Once I finished eating, I ran upstairs and took a quick shower.

’I hope I smell nice,’ I thought as I went back downstairs.

When I reached the lower floor, Luan was waiting for me like a knight, his hand extended.

The others were looking at me with sparkling eyes.

Hestia even seemed a little jealous.

’This is so nice… but so embarrassing.’
