164. Dad loves me again
"What are you talking about, Ainia?" the boy felt his voice a little hoarse, his throat was dry, his hands were shaking, and he tried to clench his hands to relieve the tension, but found that it was useless.
Ainia reached out to hold his slightly trembling hand, the weak and boneless little hand looked extremely petite and fragile in the young man's hand, which was larger than him, and the cold and warm touch in his hand made the young man feel at ease a little. At least Ainia doesn't seem to be trying to hurt anyone, maybe she's just tired of acting and wants to be herself?
No, to suddenly say this at a time when this kind of identity is not known to be exposed, it can't be for this reason no matter how you look at it!
"What do you want to do, Ania?" the slightly sweaty palm made him embarrassed to clench Aine's small hand, but when he tried to break away, Ainia clenched it with his backhand.
Rather than tired of being her father and deciding to tear her face and abandon her useless self, the boy was now more worried about Ainia doing something more terrible. For example, knocking Luo Yiyi unconscious and then arresting the demons, or even arresting some teachers from the academy, etc., if Ainia did such a thing, the boy could even foresee the whole world igniting a war because of this.
This is not a joke, the identity of the eldest lady of the Luo family is not mentioned for the time being, just those teachers, the knowledge they have is known by the demons, and the human side will definitely not allow it to appear, in order to avoid the coercion and lure of the demons to get the knowledge in their heads, the empire is afraid that it will immediately declare war on the demons.
The boy didn't doubt that Ania had such strength, maybe he thought that Ania didn't recover her strength before, she was just a well-behaved little girl, but at the moment when Ania showed the momentum of the demon king just now, he understood that Ania had regained her strength, and now she was the demon king Eloria, not his daughter Ania who was well-behaved and obedient.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything. Ainia smiled and took the young man's arm, motioning for him to sit down again after standing up excitedly, "I just wanted to talk to you about our relationship." ”
In fact, Ainia really doesn't do what the teenager thinks, she doesn't need to do anything until there is evidence that she is really suspected, even if she is really suspected, for a demon king like her, the preparation that needs to be made to capture her alive is also very time-consuming and labor-intensive, Ainia has a lot of time, and she doesn't need to worry about messing around so early.
And even if she captures those teachers, I'm afraid it will be difficult to leave the empire, judging from the speed of the previous magic guide forces, she can't escape the tracking range of the magic guide forces with those teachers, and she will be caught up, even if she can escape in the end, she must abandon everyone else, so it is better to leave secretly early.
"Our relationship ......" the boy repeated Ainia with a dry laugh, he knew what Ainia wanted to say, but he didn't want to talk to Ainia about it.
If Ainia wasn't prepared to do the dangerous things he'd just thought about, then he would need to think about his relationship with Ainia now, especially after Ainia had torn through the paper between the two.
"I don't understand what you're talking about. "Don't look away from looking at Ainia after so long together, he already understands that Ainia is a good boy, even if she breaks the relationship between the two, she will definitely not hurt herself. But he still didn't want to talk to Ainia about it, although he didn't want to admit it, but he was indeed used to having Ainia by his side, and he was used to having such a well-behaved and obedient daughter.
Ania ignored the young man's words, and said to herself: "I have seen everything you have done during this time, perhaps because of social phobia, I am very sensitive to people's attitudes towards me, although you always look reluctant, but in fact you have always been very good to me, and have not shown resistance to action because of reluctance. I appreciate you, really, you are a good person. ”
"Why do you suddenly use honorifics?" the boy tried to change the subject with some embarrassment, but to no avail, and Ainia did not answer his question.
Ainia's words sounded like a compliment, but the boy didn't want to hear this kind of compliment at all, he knew it to himself, although he had indeed always taken care of Ainia like an elder, but at first he was just pretending to be more like, so that Ainia wouldn't be angry because he didn't behave like her father, in fact, the idea of betraying her in his heart had always existed, but he had been hesitating there, so he didn't have time to implement it.
The idea of really wanting to be nice to Ainia only came about when I heard Luo Yiyi talk about her life story not long ago. To say that he has been doing his best to take care of Ainia himself, he is embarrassed to admit it.
Ainia thinks that he is good to her, I am afraid that it is also because she has a bad relationship with her real father and has not felt the love of her family, so if she is a little good to her, she will also think that the boy is really good to her, even better than her father is to her?
"My father was a good ruler, but he wasn't a good father. Ainia changed her voice and suddenly talked about her family affairs, "Since I was a child, I have probably spent less than a month with my father, and I have basically been living with my mother all the time. Although I couldn't see my father often, my mother's love for me made me not care much about it until that day...... On that day, demons from other tribes broke into the palace and killed her mother, who was not proficient in magic. ”
Although he had heard this from Luo Yiyi a long time ago, but when he heard Ainia herself tell it again, the young man couldn't help but feel sorry for her somewhat.
"My mother was not proficient in magic, but she did have some research on magic techniques, and at the last moment she gave me all the protective magic tools to use, and she herself died under the assassin's butcher's knife. Ania didn't have any expression when she spoke, but the boy could feel that she was sad, and couldn't help but squeeze her hand to comfort her, Ania smiled at him and continued, "After my mother died, my father was still busy with government affairs every day, and he didn't spend more time with me. I had no friends or family, and I was very, very lonely during that time, and I often even had the idea of committing suicide to go to another world to be with my mother.
"If it weren't for my mother's death, if I had been supported by studying magic techniques for her, I'm afraid I would have committed suicide. I once resented my father very much, but then I gradually understood that he was busy avenging his mother during that time, but this could not change the fact that our time together was too short and too short, even if he wanted to make up for it later, but I was already used to being alone, used to not being near anyone. I think that's when my social phobia appeared. ”
When Ainia was determined to find out these things, the young man could only listen silently.
"When I first forced you to be my father, I also thought that maybe I could use this change in title to make it easier for me to adapt to life with you, in fact, in the initial period, I set up magic on my body every day to prevent you from making too intimate actions, as long as you made more than a certain limit of contact at that time, the magic would be triggered, and the least powerful of them could make you lie in bed for half a month. The boy secretly wiped his sweat, he never knew that he was so close to danger, "Of course, all your subsequent actions prove that I thought too much, you are an honest and kind person, even if it is just a verbal false title, you are very competent to play the role of a father, and take care of me with all your heart......"
The boy wanted to say "he didn't do his best at all", Ainia had never enjoyed fatherly love, and maybe he didn't know what a true father who did his best to take care of his children was like, but the boy was still alive with his parents, and compared to his own father when he took care of him when he was young, he felt that he was at least 108,000 miles away from the four of "doing his best". But after all, the young man just thought about it in his heart, and it still took courage to say it.
Of course, Ainia will not know the mental activity of the teenager: "You are a good person, and a good person should be rewarded." If I happen to the East Window, I'm afraid you'll be implicated too, so I think ......"
"So you want to take everything on yourself alone?" the boy finally understood what Ainia wanted to say, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
Of course, he really hoped that the Demon King's infiltration of the Brave Academy to steal the teacher had nothing to do with him, but that had to be before everything happened, and it was too late to say anything now, he was related to this matter after all, and it was useless for Ainia to deny it. There is only one way to really get the teenager out of this matter, and that is for Ania to say that she used magic to control the teenager, but that would be equivalent to saying that Ania has one more crime, and once Ania is caught, the treatment she will suffer will be even worse.
Ainia smiled, still not answering the boy's question, but asked, "Can I call you Daddy one last time?"
