Dai Ca father

Grel: "I'm hallucinating again... Haaahhh..." I come back to meditating.

Meanwhile, the girl has already done with their onsen and wearing their cloth inside the woman's changing room. The room is pretty small and has a rack.

Kiwi stopped trembling but she still froze and spaced out. Fasmel helps her wear their cloth. After a moment, the girl already gets out of the onsen house.

Fasmel: "It feels great. It feels like I can swing my sword anytime."

Arhi: "I believe I can fly..."

Kiwi walks out while her hand is holding Fasmel's hand. Kiwi still spacing out. Fasmel seeing it has an idea, she looks around and sees something. It was some fruit. It was an apple tree. The position of the apple trees with the onsen house is a little bit far after the bridge. She loosens her hand and left Kiwi standing there for a moment and ran toward the apple tree.

Arhi: "Where are you going?"

Fasmel: "I'm not going far. Just watch Kiwi for me."

Then Arhi walked toward Kiwi and held her hand. Kiwi still spacing out. Fasmel reaches out and takes some of the apple and plucks it. Then she runs back toward Kiwi and crosses over the small bridge. Fasmel over the apple to the Kiwi, right in front of her nose. Kiwi's nose reacts to it and quickly her eyes are back to her sense and look at the apples in front of her. Her hand reacted and quickly grabbed the apples and ate them.

Fasmel: "Yep... It works again."

Arhi: "Seems she is enabled right now."

Fasmel smiled at Kiwi and petted her. Then she realized I was not in here yet. But my shield is still inside the onsen house, she can see it from outside.

Fasmel: "Why is Karl taking so long?"

Arhi: "Hmmmm..."

Arhi looked behind and saw the shield was still there.

Arhi: "Maybe he will come out after a moment."

Fasmel: "Hmmm..."

Then someone walked toward the girl's direction. It was not a dwarf, it was a human. But he's old and has a white mustache and it's long, his hair is also white and long. He walks with a long stick in his left hand. She wears some kind of Chinese dress with gray color from the top to the bottom. His eyes are closed, probably due to his age. He walked toward the girls and noticed they were standing beside the road. And he is short

The old man: "Hmmm? A young queen?"

The woman notices the elder man walking toward us.

Fasmel: "Ah... Yes?" She wondered who he was.

Arhi: "Ah... Mr. Dai Chin?"

Fasmel: "Eh? You know him?"

Arhi: "Yea... He is Dai Ca's father." *Reminder:Dai Ca is the maid wearing glasses from bulwark kingdom.

Fasmel: "Ahh... Hello Mr. Dai Ca, nice to meet you." She smiled at him and bowed for a second.

*Author note:I will call him Chin, the bank name, so it doesn't conflict with the same 'Dai' nickname. Just don't call the name twice.

Chin: "Yes... It was an honor to see you here."

Arhi: "How can Mr. Chin be here?"

Chin: "What do you mean? I was living here in Arhi."

Arhi: "In the dwarf village?"

Chin: "No, but if you walk by the dwarf village road, and then turn to the right side right after the corner..."

Chin: "Right behind the cliff, it was our small city. I thought you already knew that Arhi."

Arhi: "Aaah... I'm sorry Mr. Chin, this is my first time going here."

Chin: "Aaah... I see... Bet you just entered the onsen behind you right?"

Fasmel cut Arhi's speech.

Fasmel: "Yes! I will come back here later!"

Kiwi apple is gone now, she already ate it. Now she looks around like a normal Kiwi.

Chin: "Then glad to hear it."

Arhi: "Is there something Mr. Chin wanted to do in here?"

Chin: "I was just going to use the onsen as well. Just that."

He walks in toward the onsen house, slowly. Then he sees there's a shield stumbling against the wall.

Chin: "Is there any person in here?"

Arhi: "Aah... Yea, Mr. Chin, it was Karl's shield and he is still inside."

Mr. Chin paused his walk for a moment, then turned back.

Chin: "Did you say... Young prince Karl?"

Arhi: "Ummm... Yes?"

Then he quickly ran inside. He forgets that he is already old and uses a stick.

Arhi: "Mr. Chin! Be careful!"

He still did not stop his run.

Then suddenly when I was doing my meditation. Someone opened the door and it stumbled on me. My meditation aura immediately stopped too. I was surprised by it since the sound the doors made was quite loud. It was some old man with heavy breathing. I see him and quickly stand up and walk toward him.

Chin: "Mr. Karl. It was me, Mr. Dai Chi-"

Before he finishes his word while walking inside toward me. He kneeled and I quickly helped him to stand up with his long stick. He's trying to breathe.

Grel: "Mr. Dai Chin? Please be careful first Mr."

Chin: "I'm sorry Mr. Karl, I was so happy to see you here."

I know Mr. Dai Chin, she was my maid's father, Dai Ca. I never thought he was getting older.

Grel: "Please just call me by my name Mr. Chin."

He finally stands up.

Chin: "Ah... Sorry young prince. I was too happy."

Looking at his expression. It seems he is really happy because his daughter can work in our mansion... So, this is how the family feels outside the Kingdom.

Chin: "So when will the young prince marry my daughter Dai Ca?"

... I was confused for a moment and the silent atmosphere was so loud.

Grel: "Yes?"

The time skipped forward where we went down. We decided not to climb up the mountain this day. We go to Mr. Stefan went home first and called out Dai Ca. She already cleans Mr. Stefan's house. and it looks so clean. Mr. Stefan was happy about it and waved to us as if saying thanks while we were walking toward Mr. Chin's village. Mr. Chin was carried on top of Dai Ca's shoulder and seems Dai Ca did not feel heavy since Mr. Chin was short. Dai Ca wondered why the young prince did not climb up and how he meets his father, her thought.

We finally arrived at Mr. Chin's house. The house was designed like an old Chinese house design. There's a square yard in the middle of the house, and we walk beside it. The house is made of wood and in the yard, there are some trees and a small pool. Inside the pool, there's a golden fish. It swims around and it is also big.

Then we entered some rooms. It is the same as Mr. Stefan's living room. There's no chair so we sit on the floor right beside the table in the middle of the room.

Dai turned down his father and he sat down at the opposite of the table while we all sat down facing him, including Dai. But this time, Dai is sitting beside me since it's her father's house.

Mr. Chin's wife prepared some hot tea for us too. His wife was also old and her hair was tied and short. But its color is black, not like Mr. Chin's. It seems she is dying her hair. She still looks beautiful even though she already looks old.

Then Mr. Chin explains a lot about what happened to his daughter beside me. Somehow, Dai's face turned red after hearing it. While the other girl was stunned after hearing it. Except for Kiwi, she still doesn't understand it.

Dai: "Ummm... Fa-Father... I-I said it before I was just working for the Kingdom." Her voice cracked. She still tried to talk.

Chin: "Dai-chan... You should be happy that the young prince accepted you."

I'm trying to observe what is going on here. I look at his wife, she just smiling. I look at Mr. Chin, she looking at his daughter and just smiling too. And Dai's face is red and there's smoke on top of her head. I think there's some kind of misunderstanding. Probably Mr.Chin still does not know that she works as a maid in my mansion. I should explain it.

Grel: "Ummm... Mr. Chin, your daughter is right, she was working in my mansion Kingdom. And we did not have any plan for it."

I look at Mr. Chin's expression. Their smiles changed slowly after he heard about it. His wife was also shocked to hear it. Dai also flinched for a second after hearing it.

Grel: "Fo-For now at least. I was planning to marry her when I was done with my exploration Ahahaha..." Why do I say that...

Dai's eyes sparkled after hearing it. But the girls flinched their bodies after hearing the word 'married' from me, except Kiwi.

Chin: "O-oooh... I see... I'm sorry, I think I'm a little bit too rushing young Prince without knowing the situation." His expression is back to normal again. His wife was also relieved after hearing it.

Grel: "N-No no that's not a problem."

Then I explained a lot of the reasons I go there with his daughter and the others too.

Chin: "I see... And I heard that this little girl is from another world?"

Grel: "Y-yes..."

Chin: "I can't see clearly though, but as you mention this little girl has a tail, I realized and see it now."

Chin: "I thought it was just her legging. So, you want to help her, right?"

Grel: "Ah... Yes..."

Chin: "I heard there's a people who have deep knowledge about other worlds."

I was shocked to hear it.

Grel: "Is it true? May I know who?"

Chin: "He lives nearby here. From here, just follow the road to the right and sooner you will see a big house in front."

Chin: "It was walled and the gate shape is a circle. Just enter and you will see a guardian inside."

Chin: "It was a woman, her name is Liao Lin."

Grel: "Liao Lin, thank you very much I will remember it."

Chin: "But... She doesn't like talking to random people. She ordered her guardian to ask their guest to leave when she was busy."

Chin: "I can't help young prince with it."

Dai: "I-I can help the young prince with it."

Chin: "Hoo... See, my daughter is always useful Ahahaha... So don't worry if the young prince wants to take her anytime."

Dai: "Fa-Father! Please stop!" She was embarrassed.

Grel: "Ummm... Thank you very much."

Then we decided to leave and thanked Mr. Dai Chin and his wife. We walked out in the direction Mr. Chin mention before.

Dai: "Di-Did we go to Mrs. Liao Lin's place right now?"

She was still embarrassed. I never thought she could be embarrassed like this.

Grel: "Ah... About that. I think we should get some restrooms for now. I already used all my power."

This is my last aura power. Since I did not have enough time to meditate on the onsen before.

Fasmel: "Oi Karl..."

Fasmel's voice calls me from behind. Her voice is in a low tone.

Fasmel: "Can you explain what happened before?"

Aa... I'm in trouble.

Arhi: "You were already asking both of us. And it still not enough for you huh?"

Her voice is also in a low tone. Kiwi was just confused about what they were talking about.

Grel: "Let's just find one restroom first okay..."

Grel: "Probably two restrooms..."

Dai recommended to me where the nearest restroom was. She remembered where she was still there when she was younger. The restroom looks bigger. And I agree we should rent this restroom for a day. We entered the room and it was quite big. All of the buildings in this small city is styled with old Chinese building. And there are two big beds side by side. It definitely fits all of us. While Kiwi already runs toward one of the beds and jumps on top of it and she just stretches her body like a cat. Her tail also straightens up when she stretches.
