The old man stared at him with suspicion. His eyes roamed around Kyle's body seemingly trying to sense his strength but because of the artifact present in Kyle's ear, he wasn't able to sense anything.

The old man opened his mouth to speak but in the next second the woman standing behind him smacked his head.

"Dynn, what the hell are you doing? Why are you scaring an innocent kid? Look at him, he went pale when you shouted so loudly!"

Dynn was stunned as he stared at his wife with wide eyes.

"Claire..?"

Not just him, even Kyle was stunned for a second when the old woman stepped toward him with a very gentle smile.

Dynn's silent protest was ignored as she looked at Kyle with twinkling eyes.

"Kid, what's your name?"

Kyle blinked his eyes. From the corner of his eyes, he could see Dynn was glaring at him but when he looked at the gentle and warm smile of the old woman a very familiar face appeared in his mind. A face he would never forget in this life.

'Ah, she smiles just like mom.'

A smile appeared on Kyle's face as he introduced himself.

"My name is Kyle."

Claire stared at Kyle for a few seconds. She stepped forward and grabbed his hand.

Dynn cried out behind her that it was dangerous to just believe a stranger but she ignored him completely.

"Kyle? It's a beautiful name. Your hair is beautiful shining brightly like stars. My deceased son's hair was similar to yours."

Dynn shut his mouth when he heard his wife's words. He sighed and patted her shoulder but Claire slapped his hand away.

"So Kyle you are lost, right? Would you like to come with me? My house is nearby, I can see you are wearing dirty clothes. You can take a bath and I will cook you delicious food."

Claire looked at Kyle with expectations, she liked him at first glance. If not for his gems-like green eyes, with long silver hair he looked very similar to her son.

It took Kyle a few seconds to process everything but in the end, he nodded.

'Well, I need a safe place to stay until I can contact the Academy so it's fine I guess.'

Claire's smile brightened when she saw Kyle nod. She tugged his arm and started walking toward the village with a bright smile.

"Kyle, you can call me Grandma. I would like it if you did."

On the other hand, Dynn sighed. He looked lost as he followed behind his wife all the while keeping an eye on Kyle.

They walked in the forest and the only talking person was Claire as she told some old stories to Kyle who smiled in return. With her talking so much, Kyle found out his current location. He was inside Kingdom Tersia.

After ten minutes, they arrived in an open area surrounded by trees. Kyle looked around and eyed the rows of wooden houses. The place was clean and the road was devoid of any shops or stalls. A few old elves were walking around the place with peaceful expressions.

'I think it's the same village where Bia and the others got teleported.'

He mused inwardly and Claire took him in front of a house.

"Kyle, this wooden house is mine and you can stay here as long as you want."

A few old elves walking on the roads glanced at Kyle with confused expressions. Kyle's arrival was sudden and they weren't able to sense his rank but they stopped when Claire glared at them.

Dynn could do nothing but watch when his wife took Kyle inside the house with a bright smile.

He shook his head with a bitter smile and followed behind them quietly. Even though Kyle's appearance was suspicious as long as his wife was happy it was okay. Moreover, he would keep an eye on that kid.

Meanwhile, after Kyle entered the house the first thing he did was to take a long bath. Dynn gave him a white robe to wear and when he came out a large table of warm food was waiting for him.

Kyle looked at the food with a sigh, there was no meat. The only thing he could see was many types of vegetables.

'It's food anyway.'

He thanked the old grandma and ate a lot because he was hungry.

After he was done, he and the old couple settled down on chairs present in one of the rooms.

Dynn was still looking at him with a little suspicion but Kyle didn't mind it anymore. He was really grateful for their help.

Kyle looked at the old elves with a smile.

"Grandma I want to contact my family. Do you have a communication device here?"

Claire exclaimed softly and turned to look at her husband.

"Do we have another communication device?"

Dynn blinked his eyes when he heard the question.

"Dear, we only had two and you broke them last week when our grandson Regius didn't pick up your calls."

He massaged his temples, now they didn't have any communication devices. Another smack landed on his shoulder making him dumbfounded.

"So what? Can't you buy one more!"

"Alright, I will buy one tomorrow."

Dynn's shoulders slumped down with a resigned sigh. At the same time, a loud excited voice rang outside their house.

"Old madam surprise, I am back!"

Dynn gasped slightly and stood up. Even Claire was surprised when she heard the familiar voice.

She scoffed when Dynn ran away to meet the owner of the excited voice.

"So, he is finally back. I am going to beat him up! This little prick!"

Claire stood up and walked behind Dynn. Kyle watched the couple and silently followed behind them.

Outside the wooden house, a young boy wearing a brown hoodie and black pants was standing with a bright smile.

"Grandma."

He shouted and opened his arms for a hug when he saw Claire and Dynn figures emerging from the wooden house.
