My Father is a Hero, My Mother is a Spirit, the Daughter (Me) is a Reincarnator.-Chapter 52: Fluffy
Chapter 52: Fluffy
Father and Sauvell seem to agree about something. While I am wondering about what they are talking about, Sauvell calls for Lawrence and gives him some orders. Lawrence accepts the order and retreats from the room. After watching Lawrence’s retreating figure, Father wears a gloomy expression on his face.
Rovel: “………So you call him in the end?”
Sauvell: “We had discussed this before, right. You still don’t trust him? “
I don’t know who are they talking about so I raise my face with a question mark flashing on my head. 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m
Rovel: “Well, the problem is his character. “
Ellen: “What do you mean?”
I completely don’t understand what Father and Sauvell’s have been talking about. Thus, I press Father to explain it properly. Father lets out a sigh after being pressed.
Rovel: “Ellen, there were some disputes arise over the medicine, right? On top of that, a rumor starts to spread within our territory, that a princess of the Vankriff family will donate the medicine. “
When I hear that, my face turns pale.
Perhaps……
Rovel: “As soon as Ellen discovers the medicine, there will be a flood of people who wants the medicine. Among them, there will be some people with bad intentions. In addition, there is also a pile of requests from some merchants who want to sell those medicine.”
Ellen: “Ehm… then the person with the questionable character that was mentioned before is………”
Rovel: “We are talking about Ellen’s guard.”
Right after Father said that Lawrence opens the door and comes in with another person. I tilt my head to take a look at a young man who is standing behind Lawrence. He is someone that I never met before. Lawrence who is standing by the young man urges him to introduce himself.
“Nice to meet you, Lady Ellen. My name is Kai.”
Ellen: “Nice to meet you. I’m Ellen.”
After exchanging courtesy, Kai straightly stares at me. When I become overwhelmed by his stares, Sauvells suddenly laughs bitterly.
Sauvell: “Kai has turned 14 years old now. His father is Albert.”
At that revelation, my eyes grow bigger and I stare more intensely at Kai. Kai doesn’t resemble Albert at all. It seems that he looks like his mother. He has short black hair and sharp eyes. Although he is 14 years old, the fact that he is able to be independent at this age, makes him look trustworthy. He has a sturdy body and his height is very tall for his age. His body build might come from his father's gene.
Kai: “Lady Ellen, I have heard about you from Father. At that time, you saved my father. I’m truly grateful. “
While I am flustered, Kai bows at me.
Kai: “I will sincerely devote myself to protect the Young Lady!”
Kai kneels and puts his right hand on top of his chest while he makes a pledge as a vassal. While on his knee, his gaze is constantly staying at me.
Ellen: “Ehm…… Is this has been decided?”
I look at Father for affirmation, and he just lets out a sigh.
Rovel: “I’m not dissatisfied with Kai, but others might not accept this…”
When Father says that, everyone begins to wonder who is the one who will not satisfied.
Rovel: “Ellen is also a spirit. There is no way the spirits will stay silent.”
After Father says some more clues, I finally have an idea who that spirit is.
Ellen: “Ah, perhaps…”
Rovel: “That’s right. Perhaps he is. Since he wasn’t called here, he might get noisy later. Hey, you have been listening to us, right!”
As Father yells at towards something in the air, a big tiger suddenly appears and descends.
“!?”
Isabella who has been silently listening by the side is screaming when she sees a beast suddenly appear out of nowhere.
Sauvell: “Ol, Older brother!?”
Rovel: “It’s alright. Vaan, introduce yourself.”
Vaan: “I’m the child of the great wind spirit, Vaan. “
Vaan’s majestic appearance has left everyone dumbfounded. Moreover, they also see me jump and hang my hand on his neck.
Ellen: “So fluffy!”
When I bury myself into Vaan’s fluffy coats and rub my cheek into him, everyone is shocked except for my Father. Vaan is a tiger cub, but his size is three times the size of a white tiger on earth. Yes, despite his big size body, he is still a child. Rather than a tiger, he looks more like a lion, since he has long hair growing around his neck.
Vaan: “Fufufu, how do you feel, Princess. I just take a bath.”
Ellen: “You smell so good!”
A faint smell of florals can smell when I sniff into his furs.
Kai: “Young lady Ellen, please return back to me!”
Kai suddenly calls my name.
Ellen: ‘It’s alright. Vaan is a good boy, right?”
Vaan who has been listening to the whole conversation from the realm of the spirit raises his nose towards Kai and smiles.
Vaan: “Is this boy going to protect Princess? That’s absurd!”
Sparks erupt between Kai and Vaan. Rovel who has been watching on the sideline laughs on their interaction.
Rovel: “That being said, the spirits also send a guard for Ellen. Vaan can control the air at will. His ears are also very good and alert to any kind of rumors. He is very useful.”
Sauvell: “But older brother……, Such a big beastly animal in the city will immediately incite an uproar, don’t you think? “
Rovel: “What are you talking about? Ellen is my daughter, you know. On top of that, she is a spirit. With just that, she will definitely attract attention wherever she goes!”
Rovel boasts and sticks out his chest proudly while the rest of the people in the room are dissenting him.
Vaan: “Lord Rovel, there will be no issue! I know how to disguise myself as human.”
As soon as he said that, he immediately transforms into a human. I am watching his transformation in amazement. His appearance as a young man closely resembles his father Vint. If they are together, they will look like siblings. He looks like a 17 years old young man. He has green eyes and dazzling white hair like his tiger counterpart. His side hair leaps bouncy and short. Some part of his hair near the neckline grows long until the shoulder. This hairstyle is called Wolf cut in my previous life on Earth.
Even though he is a tiger, his hairstyle is Wolf cut?!
I nearly blurt that out.
Vann: “……I don’t look good?”
Vaan becomes dejected at my unexpected reaction. Thus, I bewilderedly try to appease him.
Ellen: “That’s not true. You look amazing!
Vaan blushes when he is praised.
Vaan: “That’s right!! I do look amazing!!”
Vaan grins at Kai like he has won something over him. Despite Kai’s disapproval, he stills hums joyfully.
“……OI, what’s with this situation……”
Father looks at Vaan and Kai with serious expression on his face.
Rovel: “It’s like they are fighting over Ellen’s bodyguard position.”
Sauvell returns to his usual compose self and affirms him, “They had said that before.”
Suddenly Father turns extremely mad.
Rovel: “OI, YOU BRATS! Don’t get too close with Ellen!!”
Ellen: “Father, what are you talking about?”
I become flabbergasted at Father’s sudden rage. He has been making such ridiculous statements one after another. To begin with, Father was the one who called Vaan.
Rovel: “I won’t let my daughter to be a bride!”
After saying another nonsensical remark, Father hides me into his arms.
I roll my eyes at him and say, “What are you talking about. Father, you are annoying.”
