Chapter 11: I Don't Understand Father's Romance
Translator: Masakibluei
Even if we stealthily move to another room, there is a chance that reckless Agriel will ambush us. For the time being, in order to avoid our existence being exposed, Mother and I decided to go back to the spirit realm as soon as possible. Especially because tomorrow is a very important day, Agriel seems to be busy to prepare a lot of things for the divorce such as writing some legal documents and gathering proof to justify her request for separation.
While I am thinking that divorce is a difficult process in this world just like my previous world, Lawrence affectionally strokes my head.
Rovel: “Tomorrow is the climax. Will you watch over me?”
Origin: “Of course, I will, my dear.”
As he said that, Father buries his face on Mother’s bosom while holding her slender waist and he is reluctant to let Mother go. It seems that the confrontation with Agriel is getting on his nerves and makes him tired. Mother who notices his difficulties spoils him with a smile. The sight of Mother is gently patting Father’s head makes her look like a goddess.
Meanwhile, I am watching the two of them from the side. However, rather than being touched by the scene, I am looking at Father with disdain. At the time being, I am more focused on the reality of our current situation.
'Oi, oi, aren’t we suppose to go back?’, I thought so as I feel exasperated.
Ellen: “Esteem Father, you really like to sulk a lot. “
Then I stare at him with reproachful eyes while saying ‘All men love breasts.' in a low voice. However, Rovel who cannot pass to hear his daughter's comment raises his head immediately from Origin’s chest.
Rovel: “E, Ellen! Why did you say that!?”
Ellen: “I learn about it every day! Father, you love big breasts!”
Rovel: “Certainly, I do love big breasts! But only you mom’s!”
Ellen: “To admit it right away with a frank manner, Father, you are cool in this area.”
Rovel: “E? Really? I’m cool? Say it once more, Ellen!!”
Ellen: “Father, you are cool in the perverted area!”
Rovel: “You mean that?! Somehow I’m not happy about it!”
The three men who are watching over my interaction with father by the side are astonished by it.
Sauvell: “………Is that my Older Brother?”
Albert agrees with Sauvell while also feeling a little bit complicated.
Albert: “However, that is probably Lord Rovel’s true nature.”
Sauvell: “Yeah. He seems happy.”
After Father catches me, he rubs my cheeks with his head while holding me who is laughing in his arm. Father’s appearance is like an 18 years old young man and he also does not have any beard. Or rather, he is unable to grow one because of his constitution. Although the person himself denies it, ‘It grows! It really grows!’, he always said that. However, no matter how many times he insisted it, the fact is there is no scraping sound of beard grazing my cheek whenever he rubs his cheeks against mine. To be honest, his inability to grow beard makes me feel grateful from the bottom of my heart.
Children skin is so delicate. Beards can be a lethal weapon when it scrapes children’s delicate skin. But Father really romanticizes scrapping his beards against his child even if his child hates it.
……Personally, I don’t get the romantic part about it.
After I played around with Father and Lawrence, I return to the spirit realm with Mother. When Lawrence gets to know about my return, he is extremely sad.
Ellen: “Grandpa, I will visit again!”
Lawrence: “Grandpa will earnestly wait for you!!”
The looks of Grandpa Lawrence who is fawning over me is very adorable, so I rush to him and give him a kiss on his cheek before I left. Then we wave our hands and depart to our home.
Lawrence: “………Lord Rovel.”
Out of a sudden, Lawrence who always has a serious expression on his face turns his face toward Rovel. He changes so quickly from a refined old man into a foolish grandpa. Just a moment ago, he looks like a foolish grandpa who was insanely adoring his granddaughter. The sight was totally out of mind.
Lawrence: “She is magnificent. There are no other words that I could say other than magnificent. I have never seen such a splendid and lovely child up until now……!!”
Lawrence is trembling all over his body while clenching his fist and crying at the same time. In consequence, Rovel raises his nose proudly while saying ‘I told you so’.
Rovel: “My daughter is the best in the world.”
Lawrence: “It’s exactly as you said, Lord Rovel.”
Certainly, Rovel’s daughter has a pair of beautiful eyes which no one ever sees before. With lustrous and beautiful hair which also adds to her goddess features, it is guaranteed that she will be an exceptional beauty in the future which will only raise praises and admiration. When she smiles with her lovely face, your heart will melt for her.
Rovel: “Although she is my daughter, she is a full-fledged spirit. She is 8 years old, but her growth rate is slow. Even in the spirit realm, she is a very rare type of spirit. I absolutely do not want to expose her existence. “
Lawrence: “What……even if it’s like that, she is still a wonderful child! As expected of Lord Rovel’s child! To think that she is the same age as Lady Agriel’s child. I thought she was only 5 years old.”
Sauvell: “That child is the same age as mine?”
Rovel: “Aa, if I’m not mistaken, you have an illegitimate child right. In this case, there is no use to keep Agriel’s daughter as well.”
The problem about heir will be brought up during the divorce mediation. There is a possibility of Agriel's child will have to remain in the family to become the heir of the house after the divorce with Agriel is finalized. However, Sauvell has an illegitimate child with another woman. In the meantime, Rovel is a little bit surprised that Sauvell’s illegitimate child is the same age as Amiel.
