Fairy: What do you call borrowing power?Is this unknown?

"Kana, what's the matter?"

"That... Actually, the real reason I came to this guild... is to find my father..."

Kana lowered her head, folded her hands, and spoke in a low voice.

Kildath didn't notice anything amiss.

He nodded blankly: "Oh, this is the first time I've heard of such a thing."

Looking at Karna: "In other words, your father is now in Fairy Tail, right?"

Kana turned her head and looked at the rock beside her.

Clenched hands tightly clenched.

Taking a deep breath, she plucked up her courage and whispered: "Father's name..."

"It's called Gildas!!"

She finally uttered the words that had been hidden for more than ten years.

moment.

Naz and the others who were hiding in the bushes at the back widened their eyes.

Mouths were wide open to their limit.

Kildath didn't react at first.

Nodding casually.

But the more he thought about it, the more something went wrong, and the pupils in those widened eyes gradually shrank.

"Eh???"

"Eh??"

"Eh?!!!"

Gildas, who finally came to his senses, opened his mouth wide and let out an exclamation of extremely high decibels.

"For some reason... so I have not been able to say it..."

Kanna lowered her head even more.

"Wait...wait a minute...you are..." Kildas suddenly roared.

Kanna's words were interrupted.

"Who were you born?!"

A frightened face invaded the cheeks that had been lazy at that moment.

Gildas stretched out his palm, and figures kept flashing in his mind.

"Sarah, Naomi, Claire, Fina, Mary, Eliza?"

"No, no... the hair color is different."

Depressed, Gildas fell to his knees on the ground, staring at his hands with widened eyes.

Fingers stood up one by one.

"Emma, ​​Lila, Jane, Shirley, Kate, Yoko, Françoise..."

He kept saying one name after another.

Let Kana's original nervous mood dissipate in an instant.

Instead, a feeling of speechlessness welled up in my heart.

Unable to bear it, Kana yelled at Kildath: "I said uncle, how many girlfriends have you had?!!"

"I... I see, it's Sherupia, right? You are exactly the same, such as gender...` 々..."

Kildas responded with a guilty conscience.

"Ah——I'm so mad!!"

Kanna stomped her feet angrily.

"I didn't expect my father to be such a philandering man!!"

She turned her head abruptly, took steps towards the rear, and was about to leave.

"Anyway, that's it. That's all I want to say. I don't have to be a family member with you. Don't get me wrong."

"We just..."

Kanna hadn't finished speaking yet.

He was embraced by a firm embrace.

The sudden, never-before-experienced warmth made Kana startled.

"You are Cornelia's child, you can't be wrong..."

Kildath said softly.

In Kana's memory, this was almost the first time that Kildas had uttered such tenderness.

But there was a voice full of seriousness, which made her a little weak to struggle any more.

"Why haven't you told me all this time?" Kildath asked.

"Because I couldn't say it... and then it dragged on until today..." Kana responded in a low voice.

Kildas hugged Karna's arm even tighter.

"Cornelia was the only girl I ever loved, and the only girl I ever married."

"However, after that, Cornelia got fed up with me who only knew about work, and left 18 years ago. Later, I heard rumors that she passed away, but I didn't expect that she left behind a child..."

The body that was hugging Kana tightly even began to tremble a little.

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were my daughter..." he said softly.

But Kanna shook her head slightly.

Then he let go of Kildas's arm that was holding him.

A smile rose on his face: "It's okay, I didn't let you find out on purpose."

"The reason why I said it was just to untie the knot in my heart."

"It's not that you need to take responsibility, let's get along as we did before."

Having said this, a blush flashed across Kana's cheeks.

"But... just let me say it once."

He stared at Kildas who seemed to be troubled by self-blame.

Kana said slowly: "It's great to see you... Dad..."

"..." Gildas bit his lip tightly.

In my mind, images called memories kept flashing.

When I saw her for the first time, I didn't care about the joy that flashed in the eyes of the little girl holding the puppy...

After that, when we met again, it was Kana who had grown up a bit.

At that time, she looked at the hesitation and admiration in her eyes, but she didn't pay attention...

In this way, missed again and again.

has continued to the present.

Really... I am really an asshole.

For a long time, the eyes of the person connected with his blood,

I never found out...

Tears blurred Gildas' eyes.

"Kana!!" He rushed forward and hugged Kana.

The palm stroked the long brown hair.

Kildath's tears rolled down his cheeks.

"I won't leave you alone anymore, never again..."

"In the future... whether it's drinking or going to work... I will be by your side, so..."

"Please give me this chance..."

The tears and slightly trembling body made Kildas's words choked up.

"Please give me... the qualification to love you..."

woohoo...

The surroundings seem to be quiet, only the wind is left.

And the chirping of Xia Chan.

Mixed in the breeze that blows by,

It seems to be sending the best wishes to the father and daughter.

----------

"Really...don't you have anything to say?"

On a hill.

Ersha looked at Luo Xingchen who was lying beside her on the ground.

He looked at Laxus and Makarov who stood on both sides and turned their heads to each other.

His face was speechless.

"Who knows, to be honest, I don't know what your grandpa and grandson are talking about, why do you want me to come?"

Luo Xingchen sat up and spoke helplessly.
