Chapter 123
Chapter 123: Resurrection
Weekly chapters (2/2)
Full of questions. Yeah, it happened to me too when I was read and translated this chapter back then.
Oh yeah, for future notice, there is no raws for chapter 124 in syosetu.
I and Mirp not sure, but maybe the author-sama want to release it for the LN(?). Well, if anyone know about it, let’s inform the info later.
Thus, the next Glutton Berserker release would jump to chapter 125.
Enjoy~

Chapter 123 – The Resurrected
Mason noticed Roxy. He got off from his white horse and approached her slowly.
Perhaps normally, if someone who was thought to be dead appeared in front of us, we should've accepted them with joy. But Roxy was just standing there wordlessly, staring at the approaching Mason.
Mason also seemed to feel troubled seeing his daughter. His face was full of anxiety, still doubting whether he had truly returned home.
[Roxy, I'm back.]
Mason gently spoke to Roxy. His voice seemed to melt away the frozen atmosphere.
After Mason died, Roxy succeed his position as the head of Heart family. Other Holy Knights didn't think much of her since she's on the moner's side. So they pushed a lot of work to her, under the pretense that she's just a newer. Even I, when I was still working as her servant, could see that it was certainly taxing work. She really had it difficult.
Even then, she was sent to Gallia due to Rafal's plot. The previously silent Tenryu suddenly went active once more. There was no way I could fcomet the day she set out for Gallia.
I saw it by accident. Roxy was visiting Mason's grave the day before her departure.
There were probably a lot of things she wanted to say, but it was all left untold. Perhaps she visited the grave to speak up her mind.
Even I would do similar thing. My parents were already dead when I was still very young. There were a lot of things I couldn't say to them. I do have things I want to say to them, if only we could meet again.
And Roxy would be able to do that now. Perhaps, her silence was due to the long repressed feelings surfacing back and overflowed.
And what came out in place of words, was tears.
Mason said as he pulled her into a hug.
[You've done your best, Roxy]
[Un.]
Only then I remembered that I still couldn't make any sense of any of these.
Aaron had already asked the reunited families to e to the palace to report themselves. Mason also obediently started moving toward the palace.
Roxy stood there, as if unwilling to separate yet.
[Esteemed Father…]
[Don't look at me like that. We've not met for a long time, and you've even bee a Holy Knight, yet you still act childish.]
[No, that's, that's not it! I…I]
[I'll be back soon, so just wait for me at home]
Before Mason-sama headed to the palace, he spoke to us.
[Aaron-sama, thank you for your guidance. Could it be…you've returned to bee a Holy Knight? This sure brings back memories. And this one is?]
[Fate Barbatos. He is my adoptive son. Shall we save the stories for later?]
[Of course. Well, shall we?]
Meeting Roxy's father, although I found myself tensed up, I still managed to bow my head. In response to that, Mason-sama simply smiled. Good one…hopefully he thought of me like that as he made his way to the palace.
The rest of us were still trying to swallow the situation. People that were killed by the Tenryu actually returned alive.
It was almost like a miracle. Many people died during the attack. Their remains were collected and returned to their families to be buried.
Similarly, Mason-sama's remain was supposedly buried in his grave.
Aaron told Roxy to follow and check, but she turned down the offer.
[It's scary….so I won't. Pardon me for backing off on such an important matter.]
[No, it is alright to feel apprehensive. We should be the one to apologize. Sorry, Roxy].
Later on, after receiving Miria's report, the soldiers and holy knights from the palace arrived. So we left it to them to handle the matter.
Aisha-sama had already returned to Heart mansion. It'll be better to immediately inform her of Mason-sama's return.
