Chapter 249

Lucky 249

Her father might be not the best dad in the eyes of others but it was different for her. Despite being strict and tough, she deemed her father the best father in the world. Just because of the simple fact that Bronal is her father.

Scarlett was crying that the nurses that were walking in the aisle looked at her with curiosity.

'Did someone die? Why is she crying like that?'

They thought.

Yet, Scarlett did not care about their opinion. She tightly hugged Bronal and cried in his chest.

Bronal smiled and pacify her. He recalled the time when Scarlett was still young. Whenever she cried, she would always look for him. At that time, their family was complete and happy.

He missed that time.

Nobody knows that his wife was actually a descendant of the Vampires.

Then, the Blood Moon which people believe was nothing but a myth showed its true power. No one thought that an event like that could kill millions of people all around the world.

"I love you, dad!!"

"Me too, father loves you."

Her father disobeyed the government and opened a portal to the Port Of Aoneon, Scarlett knew that it was all for her. Bronal was ready to make a crime just for her.

A father is ready to die for his son. But a father is ready to kill for his daughter.

He did not regret it. Fuck the Obice, and fuck the Fragment of Excalibur. Killing the Demon-God Bakunawa was the best decision that he made.

He closed his eyes, knowing that he did the right thing.

Their relationship was strained these past few years, but both of them understood that they love each other. Scarlett threw her elegance, she was crying like a baby girl in front of her father.

"Dad, don't go! I don't want you to leave!!"

"Baby, I'm sorry. I'm not a good father to you. I hide a secret from you. I pushed you to the limit to become stronger because I was afraid that I will lose you too."

He muttered and his voice was cracking. A tear rolled down his face.

It was over. At last.

Scarlett survived the Blood Moon. There was no lying and keeping a secret, not anymore.

It looked like General Bronal was caught by the emotions and he started sobbing too. The parent and child were heartbreaking to watch.

Even the nurses and doctors who did not know the situation began sniffing and holding their tears.

......

...

...

In the end, General Bronal convinced Scarlett to accept the situation.

Not even his position as a General could protect Bronal from what he did. The police approached Bronal and handcuffed him. Scarlett was crying the whole time, but she did not stop them.

She believed in her father. She believed that everything would be alright. She promised that once everything was alright, she would be honest to him.

Thankfully, Athena was there for her. Athena gave her chest to lean on and Scarlett has begun sobbing and released her frustration.

Calix was watching the whole thing, he wanted to lessen her sadness but Calix understand that only Athena knows Scarlett's disposition.

'In terms of understanding Scarlett, Athena is much better than me.'

The maid was looking for and taking care of Scarlett her whole life. Athena knew everything about her.

Athena glanced at Calix and he nodded.

Athena took Scarlett and rest in the closest hotel. Right now, Scarlett needed to calm her emotions.

"So I'm alone again..."

Calix was left alone in the room. He sighed and lay down.

"So much happened in just one day."

Indeed, from the Blood Moon to the General's imprisonment. He closed his eyes and his mind recalled most of them.

He did not know where to start.

"But it's a good thing that the Blood Moon was announced before it actually happened, at least we have the time to prepare. Unlike 14 years ago..."

The scene where Calix and his mother were staying inside the evacuation area was stuck in his mind. It was one of the memories that he could not erase in his mind.

"And it's one of the times where I still remember my mother's warmth."

Clara, Calix's mother, died in an accident.

It was said that it was a robbery and his mother was caught in the incident. She died of a gunshot.

"... This sucks."

He was mad. He did not know why.

Perhaps, being alone in the room was making him melancholic.

......

December 2, 3728

[Note: This is the first time that I stated the year. I was actually unsure if I will keep this, maybe I will edit this later. What do you guys think? Is it cool if I keep the specified year?]

It was the day after the Blood Moon. Their lives began to move again.

Soldiers started helping the citizens by eliminating the remaining monsters. So far, the damage that Dellia received was not that big. It was better compared to the last Blood Moon.

Half of the Port of Aoneon was destroyed, but at least the tower was still standing and it was working well.

The Border was attacked by millions of monsters but thanks to the prepared soldiers, the retaliation was easier.

As for the Capitolium, it appeared to be calm, like nothing happened. However, the higher-ups were actually going crazy because of the missing Fragment of Excalibur. It was a treasure that could not be bought.

The Senate decided to keep the situation secret so that the citizens would be at ease. Everybody knows that it might cause panic if they found that Obice stopped working.

In the hospital, where Calix was resting alone, two people decided to enter the room.

They were General Romoel, and his benefactor, the President of Dellia.

President Donald Biden... He is a fat man who has Alzheimer's. Ehem. He is a DemiGod, a support-type DemiGod.

"Calix, we like to talk to you about something."

Andreas stared at his son who looked haggard and tired. He was guilty that he greeted him for work instead of being concerned.
