Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 235

 

Parental Love



The train arrives in Suitka's capital.


"There's more nature than I thought."


The train station looks like a country station on Earth.


The road leading from the station is dirt and gravel.


A little off the beaten path is a forest.


There are few plains like in Ulfrika.


"We've been waiting for you!"


A man comes out from the forest.


A man with a thin but well-trained body that is clearly visible through his clothes.


His face is quite stern, but he has cute cat ears on his head.


"Sorry for the sudden visit. I would like to request a meeting with King Myunich."


Shisu proceeds with the conversation politely and smoothly.


"Ha! I have already been informed of this through communication! The meeting is scheduled for tomorrow, and today you are allowed to act freely."


"Okay. Father, I'll make the arrangements for accommodation."


"Yeah... how much freedom do you mean by freely?"


"Ha! As long as Shiro-sama can take responsibility, you are free to do whatever you want!"


In other words, he's saying that he doesn't care what happens.


"What about Giran?"


"Speaking of Suitka, there is this fruit that grows in the forest. I'll go look for a store."


I don't know if I can allow the next king to act so freely.


"Just in case... it can't be helped, so I'll accompany you."

"You bought too much!"


Fruits spill from Giran's hands


"I didn't buy it. I got it."


When Giran turned his gaze, there were young girls ahead of that gaze.


They screamed high-pitched voice and walked away.


"You're popular"


"Not as popular as you."



What are you talking about?


"When have I ever been popular?"


"Ha! You didn't even notice it!"


"Eh, what is?"


Did I miss something?


"You're Mother's first love."


"...Eh? No way!"


Does Sylvie like me?


Then why is she married to Quies?


"I'm sure she gave up on that kind of thing. There's an age difference, a difference in position, and Wince Edgeworth was already there."


"That is a joke you can't laugh at, you know?"


"It's a story that Father knows too."


What is that?


Are you trying to say I'm a simpleton or what?


"It's a well-known fact that you were Mrs. Gotton's first love."


"...No, no."


"It was said that Reineke came to the Edgeworth territory a long time ago to get married."


"...No, no, no, no."


You're kidding, right?


That makes me sound like an oaf who is oblivious to the favors of others!


"Most of the women in your life are in love with you first. It's a well-known story."


"...Alright! Let's end this conversation!"


"No, are you running away!"


"It's obvious! What am I supposed to do with a story like that?"


"Well, that's right..."


Yes!


It's already in the past


I can't have any more wives!


Even now I don't know how to love them equally!


I bite into a piece of fruit to deceive my thoughts.


"…I wish my life was this sweet~"


“No matter how you look at it, your life is a hard bread that has been soaked in fish sauce for a year and baked twice.”


The texture looks amazing! Don't break it!


"And you are the monster that chews it up."


"I also like fish sauce..."


"That's not what I'm talking about."


Life please, sweet and soft like dessert!


"Why did my life turn out like this..."


"But unfortunately your life will only be tough."


"I guess so. If I hadn't acted, the continent would have disappeared."


"You were the only one who could have stopped the tragedy."


"Haa... If I'm going to make my life sweet from here on out, I've got to get all my insecurities out of the way."


Annihilation of Prelati


Continental Revival


Development of civilization


Subjugation of bandits


There is so much to do.


And I have the time to do it.


"Well, it's a quiet time for you. You should take it easy."


"I will do so."


We're both silent for a while.


"Hypothetically."


"Hmm?"


"When my child is born, I will leave the education to you."


What are you talking about?


"Ever since I learned that I will be the next king, I have learned a lot, but I still lack strength."


"What does that have to do with parenting?"


"To be honest, I think Shisu is better suited to be king than I am."


"Is that so?"


"Yes. And you're the ones who raised Shisu to that point."


"………"


"If the time really comes."


"If you can properly treat them as a parent, I will accept it."


I'll take the position of an educator.


Growing up without the love of one's own parents leaves a deep scar on the mind.


You may have no choice but to accept it, but you can't allow it to happen.


I know I'm in no position to say this, but even if I had no choice, as Shisu's parent, I'm in no position to say it.


"Shisu grew up strong, but we are still guilty of deceiving him."


"He doesn't care, does he?"


"It's a matter of our hearts."


"You guys are a pain in the ass. Both you and Father."


"Parents have a lot of stuff that's a pain in the ass."


And there were times when they couldn't throw it away


"You're going to have a hard time now, you know?"


"I'd like to avoid it. What's going to happen?"


"Let's see. First of all..."


I'll teach him a few things at this point.
