A Father's Wish 1

Clang. Clang. Clang.

Baam.

Heinz was push back by her daughter's powerful sword arts. With her enhancements and the activation of her armor type quenque. Complemented with a long sword rivaling the spear.

Her father wasn't able to go and kill Shem with the spear. Because of Erina's quick unexpected action.

The lucky guy at the back was quite happy and a bit taken aback. He did not anticipate that Erina's father was aiming at his head.

"...What is happening here?"

Shem said.

Baam.

The heavy armors smash the grounds. As they were blown away by each other's exchange of melee weapons.

Clang.

Erina swung her sword towards her father. And aimed to injure his legs.

Clang.

The spear of Heinz deflected the sword away. And move to punch Erina down the ground. He was currently annoyed by the quite new attitude of his daughter. The rebellious daughter.

Smile.

Heinz smiled to Erina. The latter did not notice it as Heinz had his head covered with the armor's helmet.

Clang. Baam.

Erina escape by the side avoiding the hurling punch and let it flow towards the ground.

Baam.

"Alert, 10% rc fuel remaining. Five minutes armor operation until armor shutdown."

Heinz gritted his teeth from the sudden computer warning on his gauntlet, but the smile clearly did not vanish from his face. He pulled his buried right arm and held his spear upwards the sky.

"Slither whip activate."

Heinz weapon turned into a metal whip with ends covered with sharp edge of the spear.

Erina widen her eyes.

"Tch.Sharp edge released."

The sword of Erina glowed red in its sharp edges it was like heated to the maximum degree as white smoke wafted from the sharp edge. It seemed to be capable of slicing half any hard matter.

Whip.

Heinz attack first. But, Erina quickly evaded the whip by jumping and acrobatically moving around.

Shem widen his eyes. He saw one of his abilities from Heinz. The whip.

"This is plagiarism, that's one of my weapons."

Of course no one heard Shem.

Whip. Clang. Cut.

The heated edge sword cut the whip in two. Heinz was astonished as her daughter was able to do it with eased. She had also manipulated her armor quite fluently. Which Heinz was surprised upon seeing.

Her daughter has now surpass him in combat.

Give up.

Kneel down.

"Power source empty armor shutdown."

The armor of Heinz shutdown. The liquid material flowed out from his body like rusted metals. It seems this armor is quite different from the depiction in the anime.

Smile.

Sword pointed.

"Now will you listen to me father! Perhaps giving me your precious time to explain what I brought to our family."

Erina shouted. She released all her accumulated frustration over the years.

Questioning face.

"Hahaha. Very good. Amazing indeed. You've change Erina. Hahaha. At last."

Heinz laugh. Continued.

"I'm sorry Erina, I was a bit overboard."

"...?"

Erina had a questioning face.

"Shut down your armor. We will talk at the manor. And bring in your overseas boyfriend with you."

"No! Y-You misunderstood father, his just an investor I brought from Japan."

"Oh. Investor Eh. But according to Meredith his your boyfriend. Its ok I want to know this person you brought in and examine if his from that organization or not."

"No his not my boyfriend father. He's just a business partner."

Erina look towards Meredith with a cold expression. killing intent was released by the stare of Erina.

"Hehehe. Sorry young miss I thought you were in a relationship so I reported to the master."

Meredith clap her hands and wink towards Erina.

Shem stand in daze. A spectator. But, all is well.

"Huh?"

Adelmo Manor. Of the Adelmo compound.

"What's this supposed to be miss Erina."

"Forgive me Mr. Shem its just a precaution. Please endure for awhile."

Erina said while smiling.

'Huh! Endure she say and she smiled.'

Shem said in his mind.

The two of them is walking in a wide backyard accompanied by the Hidden knife members as escort. Shem was lock by an rc metal chain to prevent a sudden action of escape or berserk. Of course Shem wouldn't do that. Plus his not a ghoul.

Sigh.

"Those chains are made from rc cell alloy. It will prevent any ghouls from releasing their kagune. The chains will also weakened the muscles of these creatures. And as far as I can see you weren't affected by these chain so it is guaranteed that you are not a ghoul."

Erina explained in an office worker vibe.

After a while, they have reached a manor with an incredible architectural design. Some parts of the manor was covered with earth and grass. Like it was covered with grass blanket. A garden of flowers can be seen on an area. Sunflowers and some red fiery roses.

"Those are my flowers I talk to you about, they came from Apostle's Heavenly Garden. They're beautiful right?"

Erina smiling said while she look at the flowers. And pointed so that Shem could see.

"Right they're beautiful, more than words can describe this scenery."

In Shem's dimension. Most of the flowers were extinct and some of them were genetically made base on the DNA of the other surviving flowers. Due to overpopulation and expansion of concrete cities most of the arable lands were converted to food farms giving less priority to flowers.

But, by the start of space colonization some activist and scientist started to protest about flower cultivation and restart the global climate restoration and biosphere repairs.

Because the lands was overpowered with concrete and food farms. Big Floating cities of plants were made on the seas. Forest and parks are made on those artificial island. Typhoon and other water disaster hazard was negligible because of the material strength use as the foundation of those large floating platforms.

"Those people who live in the pass sure is lucky they have experience this beautiful environment and I guess I am one of those people now."

Shem reminisce his home while overlooking the flower garden.

The two continued to walk and then entered the building.

Heinz Office.

Four people are seen sitting comfortably on a dark colored sofa. A liquor was present in the table accompanied by a some coffee and tea. Which Shem and Erina enjoyed.

"Father. Is Mother still alive and she is here in Europe."

"Yes."

Boom.

Widen eyes.

"What? You knew all along and you haven't told me about her! "

Erina was shocked upon hearing his father's sudden straightforward answer.

"I'm sorry, I was a bit harsh to you and wasn't a good father all your life its because I was drawn on searching for your mother. That I neglected you. I realize this when you turned 17 but I was too late. Our families enemies are starting to make move against us. I was busy gathering wealth as fuel for our defense."
