Chapter 1571 – Reina Altez
I was surprised.
Makia has a secretly shady side, so there was a time when he followed me around without even realizing it was stalking.
After that, occasionally, I would try to sense if there was anyone near me.
Although I didn’t do it seriously. I couldn’t believe there was that pretty Machia right nearby, and I didn’t know.
And Reina learned of Machia’s existence, which I didn’t even know about.
Reina has definitely become stronger.
“What is it? Have you come to kill Mr. Dre?”
Raina’s voice was like ice. She looked at her hand and saw that something like metal was forming loosely.
Machia still didn’t answer.
She is so white that her almost transparent face is as red as an apple, and she is trembling like an animal.
I quickly got between the two people.
“No, Raina. Machia comes to my house sometimes.”
“Huh? What do you mean? Machia is the priestess’s partner, and the priestess has entrusted herself to Hardesh, the greatest threat in the demon world. He is our enemy?”
“I’m an enemy, but there’s no need to always count me out, right?”
Raina’s eyes narrowed as she looked at me, and I broke into a cold sweat.
I don’t know why, but Raina’s mood seems to be getting worse.
“Now, more than me…”
“Huh?”
“… No. Then, Makia, why did you come?”
Machia did not respond to her sharp voice. At that point, Raina also noticed her strangeness.
“… Ah.”
Raina’s face turned red in an instant.
I guess I realized it.
“No. That…”
Reina was about to say something, but she stopped.
That moment when an awkward air flowed. Machia finally opened her mouth.
“Since when did you two become in such a relationship…?”
“…”
“Well, you call each other daughter and father, but… Like that… Like that…”
Machia’s breathing is heavy. Probably excited.
Reina stumbled. She seemed cold just by looking at her face, but I could tell that she was struggling with her suicidal thoughts due to her immense shame.
“Sleep. Machia. We’ll set aside some time later, so you can leave for today.”
“Oh. Well, that’s…”
“Sleep. Sleep.”
He pushed Machia hard on the back. I really like the feel of her soft skin in my palm.
Makia shouted just before leaving her front door.
“Uh, when can I come…?”
“I’ll call you.”
I took Machia out of her front door and closed the door.
After a while. Her presence disappeared.
It seemed like he was sullen. It’s a little bit, but I feel guilty.
But I felt eyes on my back.
Before I knew it, Raina was standing nearby, glaring at me.
“… I knew that he was a person who messed with this woman and that woman. I didn’t know that he had also fallen into his magic hands, Mr. Machia.”
“It’s wrong.”
“Misunderstanding. Then why do you seem so close to your enemy, Mr. Machia?”
Raina’s voice was still sharp and sharp.
It’s natural.
Machia is called the two priestesses.
The other priestess has the power to read the future, and is said to have fucked Kaitsu in her past life several times.
They were collaborating with Su-ryeon, but after the headquarters was destroyed, they went to Hardesh, the Demon Lord of Death.
As she said, Raina is clearly an enemy.
And Raina and I are from the same faction.
My actions will be seen as betrayal.
But. Raina didn’t seem to be blaming me for that reason.
In the eyes of Dre, who has an 800000000 level of insight, this is…
“Are you jealous?”
“What are you saying?!”
Raina screamed.
But I was already grinning.
When she saw my smile, she cleared her throat and pushed a strand of hair below her ear.
…
Ah. It’s cute.
Even though she looked like an adult, had the mental age of an adult, and was in older sister mode than me, I thought she was really cute.
I walked up to Raina and held her right hand tightly with both hands.
She was visibly embarrassed.
“What, what…”
“Don’t worry, Raina. Dad likes Raina better.”
“Well, that’s none of my business?!?!”
Raina screamed.
But at least he didn’t seem to dislike what I said.
“You haven’t answered my question yet, right? Why are you so close with Makia? Does she even come to your house to hang out?”
“There were a few times when Machia tried to kill me. She fought back, and we became close friends.”
There were some dirty things going on in the process, but it’s not like I would invite them to my house without hesitation, and Makia was secretly hiding there. There is no need to say that.
“Repel Mr. Machia’s attack…”
There was admiration in Raina’s eyes.
I feel proud as a father.
I straightened my shoulders.
“Makia is strong, right? When you talk to her, you learn things from her. She is a kind person. Before you know it, you end up meeting her often.”
“… Makia is kind.”
Reina sighed and confirmed.
Okay. Machia is nice.
Just quietly follow the same doctor’s advice. She herself has no malice or hostility towards us.
“She was so nice that no matter how competitive I tried to be, she didn’t react at all. Even Ms. Machia shows a variety of sides to Ms. Dre.”
“Reina.”
“…? Yes?”
“Should I call you Papa, not Mr. Dre?”
Raina ugh. She moaned, her cheeks flushed, and she cried out.
“Don’t say anything weird! That’s just me being young and stupid!”
“Well, I’m still your dad…”
“Why are you making an uncharacteristically pitiful face?”
“Hing.”
“Hing?!”
Ah. It’s fun.
Adult Reina thought she was cold. She is very cute, too.
It’s fun to tease.
No. The more you react seriously, the more fun it is.
“Let go of your hand.”
“Tch.”
I let go of Raina’s hand.
Then, Reina touched the hand she was holding and stepped back slightly.
What is it?
Is she already at the age where she feels her father’s touch is dirty?
Feeling her sadness, Reina picked up her dropped paper bag.
The bag contained food ingredients.
“Now that you think about it, it’s almost time for lunch.”
“… I’ll make it for you.”
“?”
When I stuck out my ear, Raina tsk. Clicking her tongue, she said.
“I will cook the food for you.”
“Oh? Really?”
It’s my daughter’s cooking!!
Lena also cooks it sometimes, and regardless of the taste, my daughter’s cooking is always a delicacy.
However, sometimes there are some regrets.
Lena doesn’t let me into the kitchen.
Man. There is no need for Dad to come into the kitchen, he can leave everything to himself.
Her desire to make her father comfortable was very admirable, but it was still disappointing.
So.
“Shall we make it together with Dad? Raina.”
“Aside from suddenly using the word ‘dad.’ I’m going to make a mille-feuille. Do you know how to do it?”
Hehe.
Since I mainly cook spicy food, you think I can’t cook anything else?
“I only trust Dad!”
“So. That father, Taryeong…”
Raina’s voice trailed off at the end, and she quickly nodded.
I definitely understand.
Raina. I am happy to be called my father.
Cooking time with my daughter was fun.
Since I haven’t made many desserts, I made some mistakes, but I made the mille-feuille properly anyway.
Raina’s contribution was great. She was very good at cooking.
The feminine power of Noonreina mode is strong.
I put the millefeuille and a piece of bread in my mouth and ate it. She gave her daughter two thumbs up.
“My daughter. You can get married…!”
“It’s a fuss.”
His tone is cold, but he is embarrassed.
But Raina looked with a straight face and said.
“Anyway, you praise other women’s cooking in the same way, right?”
“No?”
In the first place, there is almost no woman who cooks with me.
It’s about Meichi or Meira, and even Meichi usually eats out when we meet.
“I make it with Meichi, Lena, and Mayra, but I tend to receive praise rather than give it.”
“Lena… I forgot about it because of Makia. Lena and I… Greet each other with her mouth and mouth just like you did with me, right?”
“It’s a greeting, so it’s natural, right?”
Raina had a strange look on her face.
“That shady girl… She came into being because she gave off a bright and mysterious atmosphere…”
“Uh-huh. I can’t use it if you curse at my sister!”
“I’m the older sister?”
“Then you can’t use it if you curse at her brother!!”
“Ha… Do whatever you want.”
Me. I think I’ve learned how to handle adult Raina.
He appears to have a sincere and cold personality, but if he goes out shamelessly, she has no choice but to listen.
“The father is very happy to eat with his daughter.”
“Are you going to say that to Lena too?”
Our first daughter. Are you jealous of your second child, Lena?
Like a wise father, I changed the topic.
“So, how are you and Makia-san? From what you said earlier, you don’t hate me either, right?”
“You are blatantly changing the subject.”
Although she clicked her tongue, she answered my questions faithfully.
“I see him as a rival, but I feel like Mr. Makia isn’t very conscious of it?”
“It’s not that Mr. Machia looks down on you.”
I am sure of that.
Machia does not harbor negative feelings towards anyone.
“I know. I feel like that person is a good person who is separate from the world.”
I sensed a kind of inferiority towards Machia from Reina’s voice.
I looked carefully and spoke carefully.
“It seems to me that my daughter’s talent is just as good as Mr. Makia’s. That’s why. She even noticed Mr. Makia’s secret that I didn’t notice. She was very surprised by him too, right?”
This is not an empty word; it is definitely a great thing.
I think the reason Machia was surprised was because she saw our actions more than if we were caught hiding, but let’s leave that behind.
“… Because I’m trying too.”
Oh. I feel embarrassed.
“I don’t think I’m inferior to Makia and Poise in terms of sense. However, Makia has a special constitution of strength, and Poise has the brains and tenacity to come up with a plan to beat even an unbeatable enemy.”
I guess I was more conscious of these two people than I thought.
It’s surprising because young Raina never had anything like that.
Even if her senses are the same, I think Raina is the best based on her physical talent.
“I chose this inconvenient skill to keep up with the two of them. Really. If I hadn’t chosen that skill at the time, I wouldn’t have had to do something like pervert.”
Perhaps because she was embarrassed for speaking her mind, she said something cruel at the end.
And then she said, was she being too hard on herself? It’s so cute how she looks at me.
I want to help this daughter.
I poured my entire portion of mille-feuille into my mouth and down her throat.
“Then Raina. Will she start slowly to win over the two of you?”
“…”
“Now there’s one left, right?”
After completing the quest once, Raina became stronger by leaps and bounds.
If she succeeds in her quest to fill the ’emptiness in her heart’ that she has not been able to resolve, she will gain a strength that surpasses both of them.
But Raina didn’t answer, and she thought about something, and then she showed contempt.
“Do you want to do dirty things with me that much? Pervert.”
“Because Raina is pretty.”
“… She’s putting her words into words. You’re doing a great job. It’s enough for now. From my experience, I don’t think I’ll be able to grow even now.”
You don’t make eye contact.
Maybe. It’s a lie.
The reason I lie is that I am anxious.
I thought I knew what she was anxious about.
“Okay. Then first…”
“?”
“Shall we play a game?”
Even as an adult, Raina was very good at games.
Young Ray and I have a very different impression of her, but after all, she is Rayna, game. Animated film. Movie. I really liked subculture in general.
As she played the game, Raina asked her what she liked and what she was interested in.
Even though she grumbled that it was annoying, she answered clearly.
“I like subculture the most, but maybe it’s my mother’s influence. I also like art in general.”
“Oh? Really? As a lecturer in the Department of Art, maybe I can be of help?”
“That. Didn’t you say you quit?”
I was going to do that. The students put in a lot of effort.
What can I do as a person who stands still even after seeing all that effort?
“If you like art, did you learn anything in particular?”
“I learned most of the instruments: piano, violin, and a little ballet…”
“Ballet? Do you want to see it?”
“… Really?”
Raina glanced at me.
I’m a little looking forward to it.
Wow. Do you have any memories from ballet?
You must see it. Well then.
“Huh. “I miss you.”
“… Later.”
Raina is shy. It’s cute.
She went downtown to enjoy the game and have dessert time.
I stopped by a store I often go to and a store I am close with, and I introduced her as my daughter to the owners who tilted their heads when they saw me and Raina.
“Wait…! What kind of daughter am I!”
“You’re my daughter, right?”
The people on the floating island seemed to think that I was joking when they saw Reina, who was about my age. I said with a straight face that it was my daughter. Raina whined and pulled me.
“You idiot!”
It’s refreshing.
Without hating it.
Like that. I wander around all day. Eat. I played.
Just like a normal father and daughter would do.
Night has come.
Raina tried not to show it, but she seemed restless.
Before you know it, it’s 10 o’clock at night.
Raina can’t stay on the floating island forever. Being the head of a clan and a ranker is not an easy task.
The time limit approaches gradually.
“I can’t help it.”
Raina sighed and sat down next to me.
“To be honest, I didn’t want to do it with you when I was still sober, so I put it off, but I didn’t change into idiot mode.”
I really hate it, but Raina comes next to me and says I will allow her body.
I made her sit next to me.
Her face is dyed a soft red.
I said I didn’t like it, but A child who wouldn’t even come next to me if I really didn’t like it.
I hugged the annoying and wonderful Reina and stroked her head.
“Reina.”
“W-what is it? She suddenly pretended to be sweet…”
“I have no intention of turning away from you once this quest is over.”
Raina froze in shock.
Immediately a look of astonishment appeared in her eyes.
“Uh, uh…”
“I’m not calling you my daughter because of the quest. I will continue to treat you like Lena as my real daughter.”
I continued stroking Raina’s head, and after a minute.
She opened her mouth.
That voice was so frail that you couldn’t even imagine its bluntness until now.
“Lies…”
“Why would Dad lie?”
“I only chose to say things that were annoying, so there’s no way I’m being nice.”
“I always liked you. And you’re gorgeous as an adult.”
“You’re a snob…”
“And Raina. You look like me.”
The point is that I miss my dad.
Humans are creatures that feel a sense of kinship.
I felt a deep kinship, sympathy, and affection for Raina.
“So. I really like it.”
Reyna took in her breath and buried her head in my neck.
And she just raised her eyes and looked at me and spoke in a weak voice.
“… Really?”
“Really.”
“But… Your girlfriend will notice. Even if I tell you she’s my daughter, she won’t believe me…”
“It’s okay, Meichi. I’ll explain. Or… You don’t want me to pretend to be your dad?”
“… Don’t say that.”
Raina cooed. I grabbed the chest of my top.
“I’m not pretending to be a dad, I’m a dad.”
“Yes, that’s right. I’m sorry.”
Raina is so cute.
He was anxious that the relationship between father and daughter would disappear, so he put off completing the quest as much as possible.
“I love you. My second or first daughter.”
“What is that…”
Reina rubbed her head against my neck as if she was complaining. As she was patting her on the shoulder, feeling the fragrant scent, Reina blurted out.
“I like Lena better. Do you like me better?”
“I like them both.”
She was expecting to be criticized for giving the worst answer, but Raina’s answer was unexpected.
“Then… I will make it better.”
Raina. I guided her hand to her own breast and whispered into her ear.
“Papa.”
