Chapter 1083 Your Father Is Here

After giving the gifts, Morgan left the forest with the fairies.

Isabel carefully held the golden apple with both hands, looked at and smelled it for a while, and then looked back at Aiwass expectantly. After he nodded, he felt relieved and took a light bite.

"What does it smell like?"

Aiwass asked curiously.

"...very sweet."

Isabel said, then handed the golden apple to Aiwass like a treasure.

Looking at Isabel with bright eyes, Aiwass also curiously lowered his head and took a bite of the golden apple.

The taste of the golden apple is more like a peach than an apple. It's not crispy, but soft... like tough flesh and blood. There is no core in it, but it has an unforgettable sweetness that lingers in your mouth.

Feeling a surging vitality pouring into the body... The feeling is similar to the feeling when using the Sacrifice Fire Technique to replenish vitality after using the lighting technique too many times in a row, resulting in a serious loss of vitality. Even his soul has been infiltrated... If he is the kind of transcendent whose soul was seriously damaged during the promotion ceremony, it is even possible to heal his soul with a mouthful of golden apples.

——There’s nothing wrong with the stuff, and it’s indeed good stuff.

Aiwass closed his eyes and felt it for a while, then opened his eyes and looked at the expectant Isabel, and suddenly smiled.

"No problem, it's delicious... just eat it."

He was somewhat worried that if he took a few more bites, its "medicinal effect" would still be as good as expected. So I still watched Isabel slowly eat the golden apple one bite at a time. Anyway, he had tasted it and his curiosity had been satisfied.

Compared to that...

Aiwass was a little curious as to what the gift from the Fairy Queen was...

It's not a treasure, but it's not food or drink either - which is good. Aiwass is also a little worried that if the goblins share some of the things at the banquet, what will happen if they eat the goblin food? What's wrong.

That is a somewhat skinny cat.

In terms of variety, it is close to the orange-white British Shorthair. It looks like it should be less than a year old. But the pupils are not the usual golden color of British shorthair, but clear turquoise.

It seemed well-behaved, but it was trembling all the time as if it was afraid of something. After receiving the gift, Aiwass kept putting it on because he was worried that the cat would shed its hair or scratch Isabel's wedding dress with its claws. Put it on your lap. It is precisely because of this that Aiwass can clearly feel that it has been trembling.

There is no reason why the Fairy Queen would suddenly send a cat.

Unless there's something special about this cat.

Thinking of this, Aiwass suddenly had an idea.

He hugged the cat, looked at him suspiciously for a long time, and asked tentatively: "Your Highness?"

The cat trembled violently when he heard this.

It suddenly raised its head in disbelief and looked at Aiwass in astonishment.

Looking at its rather human expression, Aiwass's suspicions came to light.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he chuckled affirmatively: "Long time no see...Father."

"……Um?"

Isabel, who was sitting in front of the unicorn and eating a golden apple, turned around with some confusion.

"I didn't call you."

Aiwass patted Isabel on the head angrily.

And Isabel shrank her neck, swallowed the last bite of the golden apple, and leaned over with a smile: "Then do you want me to call you like this...Dad?"

"You can call it that."

Aiwass said, pointing to the peaceful and peaceful cat in his arms.

"...Eh?"

Isabel was stunned for a moment and looked down at the cat huddled in Aiwass's arms.

Her movements froze for a long time, as if a whole universe was created in her mind.

"Your father is coming."

Aiwass pulled the cat out of his arms, lifted it up like Simba the Lion King, and showed it to Isabel.

——No eggs.

When lifting the cat, Aiwass took a look at it to confirm.

If it weren't for the strange influence of Aiwass' aura, the cat wouldn't even be able to get on the unicorn's back.

And Isabel was a little dumbfounded.

She also quickly figured it out: "So... the Fairy Queen's gift is to send... my father back?"

When Isabel actually said it, she realized how unfamiliar the word was to her. Just recalling the mouth shape of this word seems so awkward and stiff.

She had already known from Aiwass that Prince Albert, a famous clown and poet, was caught in the country of goblins during a once-in-a-hundred-year goblin banquet. It is said that he is also eager to come back, but as long as he has eaten the food of the goblin, he will not see him off until the goblin has had enough fun.

"...Is it because you were punished for escaping from the Fairy Country that you turned into...a cat?"

Isabelle murmured.

But it has to be said that she was not mentally prepared to actually meet Prince Albert. So when I learned that Prince Albert had been captured in the Fairy Kingdom, although I felt a little regretful, I was actually relieved.

He left himself behind for ten years and never returned home once... He never even contacted his father once. Rather than wanting and hating, there is actually more unfamiliarity and alienation.

Because Albert and Isabel used to have a good relationship - before Albert ran away from home, he was Isabel's sun. Isabel's mother died very early, and it was Albert who brought her laughter. And Prince Albert was indeed a guy who was good at making people happy, so he later disguised himself as a clown.

If the relationship between them was not good, there would be no need to hesitate at all. But it was precisely because Isabel had longed for him to come back for many years that she seemed at a loss now.

She no longer needed to miss the sunlight she bathed in in her childhood.

She already had the sun that could shine on her all the time.

Now that her father came back in the form of a cat, Isabel's resistance was not so serious.

"... According to my guess, it may not be."

Hearing this, Aiwas shook his head.

Although the Fairy Queen has the strength of a celestial being, she is not a celestial being. Therefore, she will not be dragged down by the Tail Ring Ceremony, so she has no request for Aiwas.

And with her innocence and simplicity, I'm afraid she wouldn't even consider such a far-reaching interest issue——

If Aiwass guessed correctly, the situation might be like this:

Prince Albert didn't know that the time flow rate in the fairy kingdom was different, so when he was "invited" by the fairies to attend the banquet, he would definitely not resist too much. And when he ate the food, he learned about this and realized that he would be late.

But he wanted to leave anyway-and this would anger the fairies. This is equivalent to the children having fun, but someone is clamoring to go home. This will undoubtedly spoil the fun for everyone and reduce the total joy of the banquet itself.

If it were in the past, the fairies would choose to punish such people. Although the possibility of being killed by fairies is small, it is definitely not zero-this possibility comes from here.

But Prince Albert knew that this was his last chance, so he wanted to come back at the risk of his life. So maybe because of persistence, or because of the kindness of the fairies, or because of coincidence...he was fortunate enough to meet the Fairy Queen.

Fortunately, the Fairy Queen did know Aiwass and had a good impression of him... So when she learned that Aiwass was about to get married, she sent fairies to deliver gifts.

Aiwass's face was useful in the Fairy Kingdom - and that was why Prince Albert had the opportunity to come back.

"And if I'm not mistaken... my father must have told the Fairy Queen about his entire past."

Aiwass took the cat back into his arms and did not hand it to Isabel: "But he must not know... his story will anger the fairies again."

Hearing this, the cat's face showed a very humane look of annoyance. It shrank into a ball, and its ears had disappeared.

"Because fairies have the same personality as children, and they also have many friends who are children. Therefore, 'parents abandoning their children' is a very serious crime in the eyes of fairies. For children, they may be able to tolerate the betrayal of friends and loneliness, but they cannot tolerate the deception and abandonment of their parents. What kind of horror and despair will that bring?

"And the parents are obviously fine, but they never come back to visit... There is not even a letter or a letter from home. This is an unforgivable felony in the laws of the fairy country. You can come back alive, which must be the result of the queen suppressing the dissatisfaction of the fairies.

"There is no doubt that this is indeed a harsh punishment. The flawless permanent malicious transformation... This must be the result of the fairy queen's own spell. Just like the curse that turned the prince into a frog... If there is no way to break the curse, it will be difficult to turn back into a human again."

Evans made a judgment.

"...It's my fault."

The kitten suddenly opened its mouth and uttered a childish voice like seven or eight years old: "Her Majesty's punishment is right."

Isabel's eyes widened immediately.

She realized that was about the same time her father left her... her own age.

"Her Majesty declared that I must know the horrors you experienced, the loneliness and fear of survival. So she turned me into a sickly kitten... Only after the time I was away from you could I become a human again.

"... And Her Majesty forbade me to return home. She said that since I like to wander outside, I should wander outside as a cat. Let me know what true wandering is - what the strong call wandering is just a leisurely journey; and the rich child's running away is just a temporary rebellion that can return to a wealthy life at any time. ”

The kitten curled up carefully and whispered: "This is the retribution for the actions I have committed in the past - I couldn't control my own desires at first, so I became a cat who couldn't control my desires even more; I once abandoned Isa... leaving her alone to endure the loneliness and fear of dying at any time, and now she has become a cat that may die at any time; I once chose to run away from home as a superhuman and wander around various cities... Now I will become a real wanderer.

"... and a real stray cat. She wants to let me know what desire, fear, and wandering are..."

At this point, the kitten raised its head and looked at Isabel.

Its pupils are the same green as Isabel's.

"But even so, I am very glad that I can come back here again."

The kitten said softly: "Happy wedding, Isabel. Happy birthday to you ... I hope I don't have a good time. I will leave myself soon ...

"Sorry, Isabel. Now I say nothing ... If I can try it through trials and become humans again, I can truly understand you. By then, I will come back again. Bring my most sincere apology. "

Hearing, Isabel covered his mouth.

Her pupils flashed with tears, but silently said nothing.

"Unexpectedly, the Queen is quite philosophical."

It was Aihuaus and said softly: "Better eyes with your eyes and teeth ... In this way, you can understand Isabel's pain; it can also let Isabel resolve the knot, and let you use this way of self -judgment. Come to relieve the pain in the heart.

"Compared to the childishness, she is unexpectedly wisdom and fair."

But to say, Avos grabbed Albert.

"— But it’ s not necessary to wander. It ’s not easy to find you at that time. Maybe it’ s under the wheel of the car. What should I do if then? "What should I do if I leave Isabel?"

Avos said blandly: "Since I have been here, how can I sit at others and suffer unfortunately? Since you plan to regret it, why don't you follow the thoughts of Isabel as the party?

"Apologize, in the final analysis, it should be a way to make the parties feel satisfied? Instead of moving yourself ... self -punishment."

"... What you said is, Avos."

Albert lowered his head.

"Let's ... father."

Isabel said softly, his voice was hoarse.

She did not use a more intimate "dad", but used the "father" that she rarely said before.

But at this moment, her eyes were bright.

Although some complicated and sadness, they also missed and moved. There are no half hate and anger ... because she is a girl who is so kind that she will make Avos distressed.

"Wait for the end of the wedding ... if you go back, stay in the hall of silver and tin."

Having said that, Isabel's mouth raised slightly.

Tears reflect the brilliance of the colorful rainbow on the unicorn, but she has a beautiful smile on her face.

"—— And I will leave Awaron and go out for adventure.

"You left me back then, now I ... left you. This is fair, isn't it ...

"……dad."
