"Good." Agnes nodded before shifting her attention to Emma and Lilith. "I know that both of you will do your best to protect my grandson, but make sure to protect yourselves as well. He may not look like it, but he treasures those close to him very much. He will be sad if anything happens to the two of you."

Emma smiled before nodding her head. "Understood, Grandma. I\'ll protect myself well for Ethan\'s sake."

"Mmm, I\'ll do my best as well," Lilith replied.

After saying their goodbyes, the three of them climbed into the carriage that was being coached by his Grandfather, Benjamin, who would be driving them to the Train Station.

"Take care, my boy," Benjamin said after arriving at their destination. "Visit us whenever you can."

"I will, Grandpa," Ethan nodded. "You and Grandma also take good care of yourselves."

Benjamin chuckled. "Don\'t underestimate country folks. We\'re as strong as an ox. Also, I\'m still looking forward to holding my great-grandkids. It would be livelier back home if there were some around. Emma, Lilith, both of you take care as well.

I\'ll leave Ethan in your very capable hands."

"You can count on us, Grandpa."

"Leave it to me, Grandpa."

A few minutes later, they finally reached the station. Ethan and Emma walked in, while Lilith had merged with Ethan\'s shadow because pets weren\'t allowed to wander around the train station and had to be locked up in their cages.

After entering their compartment, Ethan sighed as he looked at the familiar setting that he had seen many months ago.

"You know, I\'m really glad I bumped into Alice back then," Ethan said as he looked outside of the train window. "If not for that small incident, I would have lived my life differently, living like an ordinary teenage boy and ignorant of the mysteries of the world."

"Fate works in mysterious ways, Ethan," Emma commented. "Even if you didn\'t manage to enroll at Brynhildr Academy, there would still be a high possibility that you would be pulled into our world, whether you liked it or not. That is your Legacy as that person\'s grandchild."

"I know that I\'ll know more about my family background after I go to Midgard when I turn eighteen," Ethan said in a solemn tone. "But a part of me is afraid to learn the truth about who I really am. Also, I don\'t want to feel burdened when people start to have expectations of me."

Emma and Lilith didn\'t say anything and only looked at the young man, who had become the center of their world.

They also didn\'t want him to feel burdened, so they didn\'t say anything. Both of them would stand by his side regardless of the choices he would make after coming to learn who he was.

So, until then, they would let him live his life the way he wanted and keep him safe from those who wished to get in the way of his peaceful life.

Half an hour later, the train finally left the station. It didn\'t take long before it stopped at another station, where a familiar young lady with light-brown hair was waiting for its arrival.

The moment the train doors opened, Ethan welcomed Chloe with a hug before taking over her traveling bag to take to their compartment.

"How\'s your family?" Ethan asked as soon as Chloe sat beside him.

"They\'re doing well," Chloe replied. "My mother has been asking me a lot of questions about you and the things that happened in Luna\'s hometown."

"How about your father?" Ethan inquired.

"Well, he acts as if he is not interested," Chloe answered with a smirk. "But deep down, he was always paying attention whenever I mentioned things about you."

Ethan couldn\'t help but smile after hearing Chloe\'s answer.

In fact, he was a bit anxious because. Although Chloe\'s parents had decided to wait until he managed to obtain a Noble title, granting him the privilege of having more wives, it didn\'t change the fact that they were a conservative family.

Polygamy was alien to them since they were a monogamous family to begin with.

Even Chloe didn\'t like the prospect of Ethan having more than one wife at the start. If not for Luna being one of his lovers, she might have not opened up to this arrangement.

Back then, she and Luna had decided to work together to ensure that Ethan would marry just the two of them.

She had already made concessions to share Ethan with her best friend and live a happy life together after they graduated from the academy.

But Fate threw a wrench to that plan by sending Ethan to the past alongside Lily.

This was also the reason why Chloe felt very bitter. Lily managed to take a step ahead of them and become Ethan\'s first lover.

Although she had been able to accept it, a part of her still hadn\'t moved on, regretting the missed opportunity of telling Ethan her feelings before the incident happened.

What she didn\'t know was that Ethan felt the same.

Although he didn\'t regret the things that happened between him and Lily in the past, he still wished he had taken the initiative to tell Chloe and Luna his feelings before the three of them were forced to be separated by Fate.

He had decided to talk to the two of them after their mission ended, but unfortunately, it wasn\'t meant to be.

Because of this, he wanted to make it up to the two of them and did his best to gain the approval of Chloe\'s and Luna\'s parents when he asked for their daughters\' hands in marriage.

Although he had managed to succeed in getting the approval of Luna\'s parents, Chloe\'s case was still a work in progress.

The two of them chatted happily until the train finally arrived at their destination.

Ethan didn\'t know that his new year at Brynhildr Academy would give him unexpected surprises, as well as valuable lessons that he would remember for the rest of his life.
