Epilogue

We successfully crusaded the Enchanted Dragon and returned to the King's Capital.

The crusade of the Enchanted Dragon was not a task, so no kind of reward or honor could be earned in the crusade.

There's nothing wrong with me.

I didn't originally go after him for money or honor.

I wanted to cut off the dull regrets in my chest.

And...

If you think crusading him could have prevented victims like the villagers in their daughters' hometown.

But......

Enchanted Dragon words at this time.

- I raided that village to kill them. That was the role. They were the ones who should not have been born.

I can't leave that word creeping like coal in my head.

Who the hell are my daughters?

A few nights after returning to Wang Du.

I made up my mind to tell Elsa and Meryl the truth.

"Elsa. Meryl. Do you have a minute?"

Living room at home.

I called the two of them and let them sit face to face.

Anna stands a short distance from how it is.

"Father, what is it?"

"Maybe you want me to sleep with you?

"Both of you, listen to me"

I said.

"I want to talk about something I haven't talked about before"

…………

I guess I felt an atmosphere that wasn't just a matter of time.

The two honestly took their seats.

Waiting for me to open my mouth and start talking.

"As we both know, we don't have a mother. You never asked me why that was, face to face."

Perhaps you cared for your daughters.

And it's sweet, and I didn't even talk to you again.

As it were, I've come this far.

"So right now, I want to talk to you. Tell the truth."

I stared into their eyes.

Elsa and Merrill seemed bewildered by the sudden.

Perhaps this is what you two would have thought.

Why open up by now?

I've been lying low for seventeen years.

But the two of them never uttered those questions.

Elsa nodded that she would look like she was ready.

"Father, talk to me."

"I'll listen to you."

"... oh"

When I was ready again, I started talking slowly.

That my daughters' blood is not connected.

That I went on a mission and missed the Enchanted Dragon, which burned down all my daughters' hometown villages.

That he picked up three babies in a land where the house burned, only ashes and death. That I decided to raise them, the only survivors.

That those babies are now daughters.

I told him everything politely and washingly.

They had a flashy look on their faces.

I can't help it.

All of a sudden, I'm told this, and there's no way I can swallow it.

"I'm sorry I kept my mouth shut until now."

I bowed my head to both of them.

"My father was laying low on this thing... you think of us, don't you? Because if we break it down, we'll be upset."

"That's right. But that's not all."

I told you honestly.

"I was afraid to speak the truth myself. If it turns out that you're not real parents and kids, your hearts may go away. I thought that the relationship that I had been a family to date, knowing the truth, might make me no longer a family"

"So... why now?

"In spending time with everyone, I thought, Even if there was no blood connection, he said we should be able to become a family. I love the three of you. Elsa, Anna and Merrill are both irresistibly proud daughters to me. I can assure you from the bottom of my heart that I love you more than anyone else in the world. If I want to protect your happiness, I can hang myself. I'm sure I can't beat a family with blood connections, no, I can be more than that. That's why I chose to reveal myself."

I said, staring into my daughters eyes.

"I - I think of you more than my real family."

I hit the bottom of my heart for real.

At first it might have been meant to be redemption.

I couldn't protect the villagers from the enchanted dragons, so at least my daughters tried to make them grow up fine.

But I got emotional within a long time.

I started to learn how to love.

Now I think of them more than my real daughter. I sincerely want to make you happy even if I change my life.

"Father. Thank you for talking to me. It's been... it's been hard to hold that thought forever."

Elsa had a laborious look on her face.

Don't be angry, don't be sad.

I was full of mercy and love.

"Maybe my father and I have no blood connection. But I taught my father many things through my sword. It's definitely alive in me. I think I'm really happy to grow up as your father's daughter."

"Elsa......"

"I feel the same way about Elsa. If my dad wasn't my dad, I wouldn't have had this much fun every day."

"Meryl......"

"Father. We are indisputable, Father's daughter"

As Elsa said, both Meryl and Anna nodded with a smile.

I hear that and my eyeballs get hot.

Unexpectedly, I almost cried.

The enchanted dragon said at this time.

- It was a mistake that they were born, he said.

That's not true.

I can honestly say I'm glad my daughters were born.

I don't care who they are or what they are.
