“…Dad?”

Circe muttered blankly as she looked at Carlos who had suddenly appeared.

As soon as Hild, who had been pouring out her magical power, heard those words, she quickly withdrew it.

Oh no, it’s your father-in-law again?

As the blazing light died down.

The giant rocks(?) scattered among the broken ice piles were clearly visible.

Fucked up!

Hild grabbed hold of her distant mind.

First, let’s check if he’s alive.

Hild hurriedly sheathed her sword and ran towards Kalos.

Fortunately, he was still breathing.

Despite his protruding bones and graying teeth, Carlos was breathing normally.

“Are you okay?”

Grab Carlos’ hand and slowly raise him up.

He came up, hanging like a dried squid, as Hild led him.

It feels like looking at wet laundry.

Cold sweat ran down Hild’s back.

“Wake up!”

It’s clearly hidden, but the eyes are unfocused.

I hesitated for a moment, wondering if this was okay, but I couldn’t help it.

Hild squeezed her eyes shut and slapped Master Craftsman #2 on the cheek.

Knock- knock-

Should I say I hit this or I touched it?

It deals damage at a level that is difficult to describe.

“Will you break it with that?”

“… Circe?”

Then, Circe, who had been watching from behind, approached with brisk strides.

Circe sniffles.

She opened her palms and blew into them, saying, “Haa- haa-.”

and!

Booosh-! Zaaaak-!

“… Gasp!”

He hit his father’s back with a full swing without any unnecessary details.

“Kkaaaak!”

Carlos woke up screaming.

“Key, Circe, what if you hit me that hard!”

“What’s wrong with my dad”

Oh, no, that’s not the problem.

This dad is a genius!

Leaving Hild alone, who was at a loss and didn’t know what to do,

Circe takes a step forward with a calm expression on her face.

“Hello! Count Azurna, what brings you here? You are a noble wizard, so you must be very busy, very busy. ”

The daughter’s words to her father are full of affection(?).

Looking at the daughter of this house, who had been shouting ‘I hate you, Dad!’ not long ago, I thought to myself that she had been a nobleman before.

But why do tears come from me?

When I think of the future in which all of my daughters’ complaints will come to me as a son-in-law, my heart aches.

“Ugh, ugh. Oh my. My back”

“Are you okay?!”

Carlos groaned, holding his waist.

Hild ran over and put her arm around Master No. 2’s shoulder to support him.

“Please lean on me. Master… ”

“Oh my… Ice Hand”

Kwaching-!

“Keuuuuk!”

It’s so cold!

Carlos smiled and placed his hand on Hild’s stomach, spurting out his magic power.

We’ve all probably played the prank of holding a frozen block of ice to our friends’ bare skin when we were kids.

This was about 20 times as painful as that joke.

I really feel like my whole body is freezing.

Circe’s eyebrows shot up as Hild fell to the ground with a scream.

“This crazy old man! What did he do to Hild!”

Whoosh whoosh-!

A ball of ice and a ball of fire rose from Circe’s hand at the same time.

“Circe! What are you doing!? What are you doing to my beloved father!”

“It’s not my dad I love, it’s Hild!”

How can you say something so casual that it would break your father’s heart if he heard it?

It wasn’t a coincidence that the ice-attribute Circe gained fire magic through her warrior awakening.

“Carlos! What the hell are you doing?!”

“… Kairan! Are you okay, kid?”

“I, I’m okay”

Kairan, who had lost consciousness halfway from Hild’s attack, also approached.

Carlos made a complicated face, unable to laugh or cry, when he saw his friend safe.

“I’m in this shit because of you bastard”

“Mi, I’m sorry. The duel got a little too intense… ”

“That’s a duel?”

“That’s right”

Kairan explained the simple story to Carlos.

As he listened to the explanation, Carlos’ face distorted and straightened repeatedly.

“… That, that man is your son-in-law, Selene’s husband?”

“Yes”

Uh… um… really?

Carlos scratched the back of his head as if embarrassed and glanced back.

‘Are you okay?’

Although it was clearly weak, one of his magic spells, ‘Ice Hand’, hit directly.

Even though it is low-level magic, the user is a man called the Blue Demon.

Hild had her stomach white and was pressing the area with her steamy hand.

‘… It’s the power of manipulation, right?’

The man known as Kairan’s son-in-law was skillfully using the power of the Grim Reaper.

A strange light appeared in Carlos’ eyes for a moment.

“I’m surprised by the way. I never thought Selene would date a man with the intention of marriage”

“… Ahem, well, our daughter needs to get married too”

“I didn’t know you would allow it”

An old friend who knew Kairan’s bold personality smiled happily and nudged him in the ribs with his elbow.

“Moreover, isn’t Circe also about to get married?”

“Oh, my daughter? My daughter… I wonder if she’ll get married… ”

The light disappeared from the blue demon’s eyes.

Knowing Circe’s blunt personality, Kairan coughed in vain, saying that he had asked a pointless question. He didn’t add anything, but Circe’s personality was exactly like that of her younger enemy, Kalos.

I guess it’s a secondary battery. Hmm.

“What… Do your best”

“… What?”

“… Anything”

Kairan tapped Carlos on the shoulder.

For a moment, Carlos felt regretful that he had saved her in vain.

Kairan approached Hild, who was lying on the floor, and held out his hand.

“Sir Hild. Are you feeling okay?

“Ah, Master! Yes, I’m fine”

Oh, you’re fine. I almost died.

Of course, I should be happy when my son-in-law is strong, but seeing that I feel a strange sense of jealousy makes me realize that I still have a long way to go.

Kairan took a deep breath to control her emotions and smiled.

“That was a great match. You’ve achieved great things at such a young age”

“You are too kind”

Hild bowed deeply, taking Kairan’s hand in hers.

Kairan was curious about Hild’s strength, but could not bring herself to think that it was the strength of a warrior.

“Looking at the swordsmanship, it resembles Stacia”

“You are my teacher”

“I see”

If you are the disciple of the one called the King of Knights, you should be able to achieve this level of accomplishment.

There is no senior who would dislike a polite and hard-working junior.

Kairan smiled happily and patted his back a few times.

“Please take good care of Selene”

“I will always try my best to be a man worthy of Selene”

“Hehe, you speak so beautifully”

After a cool duel, Kairan burst into loud laughter, feeling much more relieved.

“That, the elixir… I’ll use it well”

“Yes, feel free to use it”

Carlos made a calm face as he watched Kairan slowly moving away.

How can you be so desperate in front of a son-in-law!

The Blue Devil promised himself that he would not do that.

As I was thinking about that, I suddenly became worried.

Who did she take after to become so eccentric and prickly? Wasn’t that the daughter who was sent on several blind dates when she was young, but was rejected by all of them?

Circe has also become very mature…

My second daughter, who would have been married and had children by now, felt heartbroken when I thought of her going on an adventure with her friend because she was a wizard and had more to learn.

My heart ached even more when I thought about my friend’s daughter who was about to get married.

If there’s someone who definitely wants to take him, should I just send him away?

But if I’m going to do it, I’d rather have a man who’s polite, has some skills, and has a good-looking grandson.

Let’s think about that.

My gaze keeps turning to that man.

Ah! That bastard! It’s fine, but it’s a shame!

But I can’t do something that goes against morality, like having my eye on my friend’s son-in-law…

Just as he was thinking that, Circe ran up to him and put her arms around him.

“Honey, are you okay?”

“Hilde, are you hurt anywhere?”

His friend’s daughter also grabbed his other arm to follow suit.

The man nods with an awkward smile.

A lightning bolt struck Carlos’ head.

Didn’t your daughter just say, “Honey?”

“Circe, wait!”

“… Ah, what is this? Dad, you’re annoying”

I looked at my beloved with pink eyes full of love and affection,

All that blows to my father is a dry, cold wind.

Despite such a heartbreaking attitude, my father continued speaking as if he was used to it.

“Did you just call this guy honey? No, come to think of it, didn’t you just say he’s the man you love?

“Yeah, that’s right. I’m going to marry Hild”

Circe answered her father’s question as if it were a given.

Carlos’ heart pounded as he saw those eyes filled with conviction and confidence.

“Hey, you”

“Ah, yes. I’ll say hello. My name is Hild”

Hild, who had been called by Carlos, jumped up and bowed.

As someone from the land of courtesy in the East, I cannot forget to say hello.

Carlos smiled happily without realizing it at the cheerful and polite attitude that was unusual for young people these days.

Oops! This is not the time.

Carlos slapped me across the face and said what he had to say.

“Are you really planning to marry my daughter?”

“Ah!”

The time has finally come.

Even though I passed the first test without a hitch, there’s no guarantee that I’ll get a free pass the second time.

In particular, Hild lacks magical ability, so in order to win over Kalos’ heart, she must actively appeal to him with a clear vision and a heart of devotion to her daughter…!

“Yes, Master. I truly love Circe. What are your plans for the future? ”

“Ah, that’s okay. Are you really going to marry Circe?”

“… Yes, that’s right”

“Really? Really, really? There’s no turning back in the middle? You can’t just have a bad personality, whine, show off your pride, and then get off in the middle, right? ”

“… Yes, I won’t do that”

“Promise”

“A”

Carlos quickly snatched her hand away, hooked her pinky finger, and squeezed it hard.

What kind of wizard is this? It looks like that guy’s fingerprint is on his little finger.

“Hahahaha, I’ll be counting on you from now on, son-in-law!”

“Oh, please take care of me”

The second master really didn’t ask or inquire about anything.

Just don’t let your daughter get married!

He just kept repeating the words.

Hild understood a little why Circe was so prickly towards her father.

In the end, the shame was the daughter’s.

The blushing Circe was still cute and lovable.

In this way, Hild’s grand wedding plan was successfully concluded.

“How nice to meet you, Lord Azurna!”

“… Wow… Prince! Are you okay?!”

Now it was time to begin Graham’s grand plan to succeed to the throne.
