My Daughters Have Regressed - My Daughters Have Regressed chapter 166
166 – Ouch!
166 – Oh wow!
I lightly stamped my feet, and this time the Imperial Palace of Marduk appeared.
The Sultan’s imperial palace was briefly in turmoil due to our sudden appearance, but it was not that important.
I gave Sultan Saladin about two of the “Flower of Mago” That I had picked. The Sultan who accepted it was extremely grateful and bowed his head repeatedly.
“Thank you. Thank you. Judas, you are my benefactor.”
“Hmm…”
Being criticized was nothing to me, but being thanked was something I wasn’t used to, so it felt uncomfortable and awkward.
I didn’t know what kind of expression to make.
“We designate today as the country’s national holiday! Let the wind chime sound!”
It was the same in Oasis Village, and a banquet was held here as well.
It was great to be treated as a valued guest wherever I went.
“Arnanara, the scorching Demiurge… “This is my first time hearing this name.”
When the Sultan heard what we had been through, he sympathized deeply with us. The Sultan also didn’t seem to know about the name Arnanna, but that wasn’t really that important.
“Is this the egg?”
“Yes.”
I presented Arnanna’s egg to the Sultan.
The Sultan took it, exclaimed, “It’s quite heavy,” And then passed the egg back to us.
He seemed to be curious about what would be born inside here, but he didn’t ask any more questions, perhaps because he sensed that I was bothered by this and that.
He truly was a man who rose to the pinnacle of power in a country.
With that feeling, after the banquet, I wandered around the imperial palace late at night. I wasn’t just wandering around for no reason, it was because I had someone to meet.
“So, did you find any answers?”
I asked Tywin, who was looking out the window on the balcony.
Tywin seemed startled, then looked at me and opened his narrowed eyes.
“… “I don’t know.”
“I see. “Do you want to meet your mother?”
“How did you know? “Did you steal my thoughts too?”
Tywin asked me as if he really didn’t know.
Did you steal my thoughts?
I could have done that, but I didn’t have to.
“Most kids think they are good at lying. But adults can actually recognize everything. There are many cases where they just pretend not to know.”
“…”
“And it’s natural for kids to want to see their mom. But no matter what, it’s still like that. “Why did you come all the way to this desert?”
“Goddess Efar told me. She said that if she wanted to meet her mother she had to go to this desert pyramid so she could get that chance.”
I see.
Epar was involved in this matter.
Indeed, he was a being who had lived for a long time and was revered as a god.
Because most of what Epar said was always right.
Following Effar’s words, Tywin headed to the pyramid and was able to seize the opportunity to find her mother. It was because I was headed there too.
It’s too fateful to be a coincidence.
Maybe this was one of the results that was predetermined in the universe?
“Do you want to meet her mother?”
From noble mtl dot net
“… Her mother told me not to show her in front of her anymore.”
Did El Cladeco even say that?
If you think about it carefully, she was a woman who could easily say such things.
That’s why Tywin is so depressed.
“That’s what your mother Cladeco claims, Tywin, what do you want to do?”
“I am…”
Tywin cried, unable to continue her words.
It looked very sad.
No matter how much she pretends to be an adult, she is still just a child.
And it was the same for me too.
“Actually. I’ve never told anyone, but I miss my mom too.”
“… Yes?”
“I miss my mom and her dad too. When things got like this, I even missed her younger sister, whom I hated. It’s natural to want to see her family. It is by no means a weakness.”
“…”
“But I didn’t know how to get back to her mother. So she just forgot to think. But she got the clue after today’s incident. “I plan to climb over the wall tomorrow.”
“Climbing the wall… “You’ve become such a great person, but you’re still like a thief.”
… What a man.
I’m only twenty-five now.
But Tywin was right.
Climbing over the wall like a thief.
Is there any other expression that fits me better than that? I have been running away from self-study by crossing walls since I was a student, climbing over walls in a strange world, and finally climbing over the wall of fate known as Nocturne.
Demiurge of Waltham.
I stroked Tywin’s head as I thought about calling myself that.
“Tywin, maybe you can meet your mother somewhere there.”
“Don’t touch it carelessly… !”
* * *
“Naru, pack your bags quickly. “You have to be diligent because you have to go a long way.”
“Hmm…”
Naru got out of bed, rubbing her sleepy eyes.
It seemed like he was still half asleep.
“… “Are you going home now?”
In response to Naru’s question, Brigitte nodded, wiping Naru’s face with a wet towel.
“I have to go home now.”
“The desert trip was fun!”
Indeed, it is so.
Naru, the desert trip was fun.
What about Hina and Cecily?
“Princess Hina, how about staying here for just one year?”
“I have to leave already… !”
The people of Marduk were very saddened by Hina’s departure.
The same seemed to be true for Hina, who seemed to regret missing out on the opportunity to become a princess and outshine Naruna Cecily.
“Hmm…”
“If you want to stay here, you can stay here.”
I patted Hina’s head.
If you stay here, you will be treated like a princess in the future.
However, Hina shook her head as if she had made up her mind.
“I want to go with dad…”
It’s very special.
Hina was generally more thoughtful than Naru or Cecily.
The reason I’m usually quiet is probably because I have a lot to think about.
Is this exactly what it feels like to see the eldest sons firmly maintaining their positions without saying a word?
Of course, Hina is not her eldest son and Naru is her eldest daughter!
Warak-.
At that time, Hina hugged one of my legs her her her her.
“… Dad, Hina… You can’t leave it… ! Hina, you don’t have to be a princess… !”
Did she think he would leave her behind?
“Let’s leave Naru behind. If possible, leave Naru’s mother behind.”
Someone interrupted the conversation and spoke softly.
Let’s leave Naru and Naru’s mother behind.
It was Salome.
“Where is Naru?”
While I was talking, I looked to see what Naru was doing.
Last night, Naru painted a pretty picture of her on a pottery made from clay and placed it on a shelf.
“Reward for the pottery I broke last time… !”
“Wow, such wonderful pottery… ! This pottery master bottleman, I have never seen such wonderful pottery… !”
“Oh, Miss Naru. You really have amazing skills. With such a beautiful streamlined shape, it would be nice to make it a national treasure!”
Naru was receiving praise from her elders for making her her pottery her her her.
It may seem like too much flattery for a young child, but the pottery Naru made was well-made when I saw it.
Is Narumam Brigitte’s laissez-faire education what makes Naru artistic?
Anyway.
With that feeling, she finished organizing everything.
Now it’s time to go home.
“Are we going back on a boat for another week? Cecily, it’s nice to go on a noble-friendly luxury cruise, but I want to stop going on ships now… !”
Cecily seemed to be having trouble getting on a boat again.
Garot also nodded her head to this story.
“I’m from the grasslands, so the sea doesn’t calm down a bit.”
The trip back is quite tiring.
Is now your chance to change your schedule?
“There’s a place I’d like to stop by on my way back, what would it be like? You don’t have to take the boat.”
I asked everyone if they wanted to reschedule. We asked for your understanding in advance. Then Brigitte, Salome, and Garrot looked at me.
Their expressions seemed full of doubt, “What are you going to do again?”
“Well, Cecily, it’s a good thing if you don’t have to take the boat…” ” !”
“I like that Naru’s journey continues!”
“… Yes, yes.”
Do children like it?
Looking at Tywin, who was unusually quiet, I noticed that he was watching the adults. He must have realized that his future schedule would be adjusted based on the opinions of adults.
“Does it take long?”
Salome asked.
I shook my head.
“No.”
“Is it somewhere far away?”
This time it was Garot’s question.
I nodded.
“It’s incredibly far.”
“Isn’t it a place you must go to?”
Brigitte asked the last question.
I thought about that question for a moment.
Of course, the worries did not last long.
“Okay. If possible, I would like everyone to go together.”
At my answer, the three women looked at each other’s faces.
And finally, they simultaneously answered, “Okay.”
Of course I knew this answer would come back, but it felt good to hear it in person.
I lightly stamped my feet again.
Then everything in front of my eyes changed in an instant.
“W-Where is this…” “?” ? That Sifnoi was enjoying his last banquet, surrounded by golden brown sugar…! I’m curious as to where this place that suddenly appeared is… !”
Sifnoi was making noise.
I just walked over and pressed the elevator button.
Ding-.
I heard a familiar noise and pressed the button on the 17th floor, and the machine started running.
Everyone looked around as if they wanted to find out where this unfamiliar place was.
It must have been awkward.
This place was very unfamiliar and awkward to me as well.
However, as time passed honestly, one second at a time, I felt like all my old senses were awakening.
Finally, I was able to reach a high place on the 17th floor.
Quite a high landscape.
It was a place where many things could be seen at a glance.
Brigitte said while looking at that.
“Whenever I saw you, there were times when I felt anxious, as if you would just disappear somewhere. This was the ‘somewhere’.”
Is that so?
It was a very important story, but my heart was pounding so hard that I felt better.
Before I knew it, there was a door in front of me, and it had an unfamiliar lock that I couldn’t find anywhere else on the continent of Pangea.
“There is no hole for the key!”
Naru was surprised.
As Naru said, this was not a door that could be opened with a key.
“What was the number?”
I forgot.
Damn.
Since more than two years have passed, I can’t help but forget about it.
However, when I put my hand on the license plate, I pressed the numbers naturally, as if my body, not my head, was moving on its own.
Chinese Zodiac Sign, Chinese Zodiac Sign -. Beep.
Grumbling.
I heard the sound of a lock being opened and a noise coming from beyond.
Crash.
As I pulled the doorknob and opened the door, a familiar sight came into view.
A living room that is neither wide nor narrow. Old sofa. Old TV. Dazzling fluorescent lights. A tree sparkling with hanging light bulbs.
… And three people standing in confusion as if they were embarrassed.
“…”
What will I say when we meet again?
I often thought about it and practiced it when I was bored, but when this situation came up, nothing came out.
By the time everyone was immersed in this strange yet strange silence-.
Naru was the first to open his mouth.
“Oh wow… !”
Then a 21-year-old girl with black hair who looked similar to Naru spoke.
“Oh wow…”
