Chapter Index

    Is it because the bowls are bigger than in the past? Even though several days had passed, Shinsung, who had hit rock bottom, showed no signs of recovery.

    For me, who had to clear the quest as quickly as possible, it was extremely embarrassing.

    That island is littered with dungeons that I thought were creepy even when I was outside the monitor! Even if everything goes well, how can we go to an island like this where it’s hard to be sure what will happen?

    ‘You know! Urgent! People’s lives are at stake!’

    ‘It’s not a story that can be passed over like that!’

    The day I found out that Queen 1 had ordered Prince 1 to seduce me. I was out of breath just from walking, so I had to stop the chaos going on around me.

    A perverted apostle who says that he will slander the first prince not only within the Kingdom of Soladdin but also across national boundaries.

    I’m a stupid fox who says that it’s okay to destroy one’s mind without it being visible on the outside.

    Fabina said she would make a statement directly at the church if she wanted.

    The Fairy Queen who says she can make someone go crazy and make her disappear.

    There wasn’t a single sound that wasn’t bloody, but it didn’t seem like a joke, so I was really scared.

    Are you saying that if I nodded without saying anything, you were going to do it?

    But this was medicine. Anyway, they can be controlled somehow.

    ‘Lucy. ‘Have you met the first prince today?’

    The day I left the fairy forest, thinking I wanted to lie down on the bed and sleep, it was Benedick who greeted me.

    There was a smile on his face like always, but his eyes were not smiling at all.

    ‘that. Why are you asking that? ‘Stupid father?’

    ‘Did he do something?’

    ‘under. Do you think the Prince of Insidiousness, who seems to have assimilated with fungus, can come near me?’

    ‘I’m glad that’s the case. if. Very if. If he wants to do something, tell me. This Papa will even turn God into an enemy for Lucy’s sake.’

    Benedick, who was telling me those words, gave me the feeling that he was desperately holding on to a string of reason that seemed ready to break.

    It was such an extreme feeling that I, who was worried about being Revolutionized!, was now worried about Revolutionizing!, but it was difficult for a real revolution to occur.

    I am not some kind of tragic heroine! Why do you have to shout ‘Don’t fight because of me!’ in the middle of the battlefield!

    No, what I’m shouting isn’t such noble words. Rather than that, ‘Puh-ha-ha! It’s like he’s horny and making a fuss about having a girl. Wouldn’t it be closer to ‘You’re so disgusting.’ Maybe it could be worse.

    anyway! I will never see other people die because of me!

    So, in order to prevent this, I need to recover my body quickly, but why on earth is this stamina not coming back?

    ‘Is there some way?’

    *

    Since the battle in the Fairy Forest, Benedick has not been able to sleep well.

    It wasn’t a day or two that he couldn’t sleep properly, but recently, he was sleeping more and more soundly.

    It was thanks to his daughter’s bright smile that the sorrow that had settled on his shoulders was gradually being erased.

    However, after dealing with the evil spirit of darkness in the fairy forest, he felt like the despair on his shoulders had returned to its original state.

    No, in some ways it is safe to say that it has gotten worse.

    The lament that should have ended with his missing wife has now led to the fear of losing his daughter.

    Even now, Benedick could see Lucy covered in blood before his eyes.

    that day. Benedick, who met Lucy in the fairy forest, did his best to suppress his feelings.

    He knew that no matter how much pain he felt engraved in his heart, it would not be as great as what Lucy experienced, so he acted exaggeratedly and hid his pain. If I didn’t, I felt like I would collapse before I could deal with the evil spirit, so there was nothing I could do.

    Until he brought back Lucy, who was sleeping soundly after the battle with the evil spirit of darkness, Benedick believed that everything was over and everything would be okay, but the reality was different.

    The anxiety that clung to his heart only grew bigger as time passed.

    It is not that I was affected by the power of an evil spirit. Later, when I met Erginus again, who had ascended to the rank of god, he confirmed it to me.

    This anxiety is just mine. It’s just a fear that comes from the fact that I lost the person I love the most and might lose someone I care about again.

    “Whooo.”

    It was because of this fear that Benedick overreacted to marriage talks that had never been formalized.

    How could I remain calm after hearing such a story when I was consumed with anxiety that I would lose my daughter and did not know what to do?

    I’m glad Porcell caught me at that time. If it weren’t for that guy, I would have attacked the first queen and made her suffer.

    “Ha.”

    How did Lucy become such a great person?

    Until recently, she was a girl who only knew how to throw tantrums and complain, but now she has grown into a person who endures her pain and smiles to reassure others.

    This will definitely be the right growth. If you were to ask who is a better person between the old Lucy and the current Lucy, everyone would answer the current Lucy. Because right now, I’m the only one thinking that way.

    but. When I think of Lucy covered in blood and cold, I end up thinking that the Lucy of the past is better.

    Rather than losing the person you love again, you find yourself wanting to hold them in your arms for the rest of your life.

    Even though I know I shouldn’t do that.

    “Babo Papa~”

    Benedick, startled by Lucy’s voice followed by a clicking sound, stands up and the hard back of the chair breaks.

    Benedick, who has lost a place to lean on, falls to the floor, and in the aftermath, the documents on the shaken desk fly, and Aln’s associates, who have been working with Benedick for some time, look at the fluttering papers with stained eyes.

    “What is it? Pervert Papa, what were you doing that was so surprising? Is this weird? Can’t I look at cute Lucy?”

    “Ah. ah. no! That’s not it! Lucy! You will find out when you come in! Papa was working hard!”

    “Really? Let’s go in?”

    Lucy, who entered the room with her red hair flowing, arrived in front of Benedick, easily ignoring the gazes of others focused on her.

    Lucy raises the corners of her mouth at the sight of Benedick smiling awkwardly while lying down.

    “So what is it? Is it a girl?”

    “How could that be?! There is only one love for me!”

    “Hmm. okay? So you’re saying I don’t love you? I’m disappointed.”

    “That. It’s not like that.”

    “Choose. Mama. Is it me?”

    “There is no way you can choose! They are both infinitely precious people to me!”

    Benedick, who had been having a hard time dealing with his daughter, wondering where the sigh from earlier had gone, got up with relief when Lucy said that it would be okay this time.

    “So, what business did you come here for?”

    “What is it? Stupid Papa. I am.”

    “It’s okay to come by even if you don’t have any business, but not this time. Right?”

    “…Chi. It’s not fun.”

    “Haha. I’m so sorry about this.”

    “What. it’s okay. Because I don’t want to waste time in a dull place like this.”

    “Thank you for your consideration. So what happened?”

    “The desire to monopolize was so strong that it was difficult to watch Papa, who was in trouble. So, especially. To give you a chance to escort me.”

    There’s no way it’s an escort.

    “Why? no? Then there is nothing we can do. Stupid Papa is too busy working to care about his cute daughter.”

    “What are you talking about! Of course I have to go! How can we remain silent when our Lucy wants an escort!”

    In the past, I would have hesitated a bit. Benedick’s presence was essential in order to handle the work piling up in the Arn family.

    But now the story is a little different. Benedick was able to relax once again as he reconciled with his collateral in Arn and was able to bring his children there.

    After returning from the fairy forest, I saw that the work was done quite neatly.

    They were the ones that Karia personally selected.

    So, if you leave the work to them for a while and leave, nothing will happen.

    Maybe the results will be even better than when I did the work myself.

    “Then, I will go out for a while and please take care of me from now on!”

    “Yes. Please come back. The head of the family.”

    “Please relax and enjoy.”

    “No! Lord! If you go…! You already left!?”

    Benedick, who was excited to be with Lucy, disappeared at a speed that ordinary eyes could not keep up with.

    In the room where only the working staff remained, the head deacon cleaned up Benedick’s messy documents and smiled at the person who had raised his voice just now.

    “ character. everyone. It’s time to have fun at work.”

    It was the moment when the forced march that had continued while Benedick was away was resumed.

    *

    Benedick finished preparing for his date with a smile on his face, and put more effort into decorating himself than when he participated in the Patran family’s party.

    I think the last time I cared about myself this much was when my wife was alive.

    Benedick came outside, humming a new song, and blinked at the sight of Lucy wearing revealing armor.

    “Keep. Stupid Papa. Are you very excited? Were you that happy that your cute daughter was playing with you?”

    “Lu. It’s Lucy. Where are you going to wear that armor?”

    “Of course I’m going to fight. If it wasn’t for a place like that, there’s no way you’d hang up a fool like a troll, right?”

    “Okay…yeah. I guess so.”

    Lucy, who had been laughing for a while on top of Benedick, who collapsed in complete disappointment, sneakily crawled under Benedick and pressed the bridge of his nose.

    “If you work hard this time, I think you can put up with Papa’s big, needlessly big idiot.”

    “…I understand! Order something! Hey Papa! I will risk my life and swing my sword for Lucy!”
