I am sure you all are probably wondering, why is this guy talking to us directly even though he is not an Isekai character. You are right. I am not someone who was Isekai'ed here and I have an entire backstory to cover for it. As to why I know you guys are here? Well, I'll have you know that my sixth sense are way off the charts. I can hear your thoughts, read them and even talk directly to you. Be warned as you head further ahead into the story.
Alright, I've had my fun. To be honest, I have no idea whether is there anyone peeking in on my life's story. Ever since I was young, I always felt like I was being watched wherever I go so I ended up talking to myself most of the time. Call it my way of comforting myself in this cold hard world that I was born in. There are people watching me right? Or am I just mad? I hope there are, otherwise I really am talking to myself.
Right, where are my manners. Name's Zen Hawthorn, son of Jack Hawthorn and Jane Gladiolus. If you had followed me through my backstory, you would had known that I am officially married now. My wife, Rose Starr, who was also my little sister, fell in love with me and I decided to marry her. Wait, I know what you're thinking, it is not incest, I swear! We are not blood-related whatsoever and I just happened to rescue her from a horrible caretaker that was treating her badly.
"Oh, you're bringing me into the story so early? What happened to hiding my identity as you did with the previous one?" asked Rose as she poked her head into the room.
"There is no way I can do that now. Everything is going to be live moving forward. Every step, breathe, adventure and such is going to be in real time," I explained to her.
"Uh huh, I'll just let you talk to yourself as you always do while I finish up some chores," said Rose as she walked away.
Right, where was I? Ah yes, I also happened to have a..
"Daddy!" shouted Daisy as she ran up to me.
"Right on cue. This here is my lovely daughter that is the result of my love with Rose. A precious little being that I will and must protect until my last dying breath," I said as I placed her on my lap.
"You mean the result of you being horny all the time!" shouted Rose from another room.
"Hey! Daisy is right here!" I shouted back.
"Daddy, what is horny? Are you growing horns?" asked Daisy.
"Uh.. no. Daddy will not be growing horns anytime soon, sweetie. Don't you worry," I smiled awkwardly at her.
What else is there? Ah yes, my good brother, John Gladiolus, who could potentially be my real cousin for all I know. He had gotten married to his beautiful elven wife, Daffodil Vermouth and had a child of their own. Despite female elves being known for having difficulty in conceiving, John did a pretty good job in having one within ten years after their marriage. And their hybrid daughter is certainly out of this world in terms of cuteness.
"Are you saying you regret in marrying me?! I told you to choose Lily but you chose me instead!" shouted Rose from another room.
"I didn't say that! I have no regrets in choosing you and I standby it!" I shouted back.
Ahem, apologies for that. My wife had grown worse over the years after we had married. Now we are like some old couple that bicker every chance we get. How I wish I can turn back time to when we first started dating. Ah, those memories were sweet and lovely. Now she is just like some old crony that is constantly looking for an opportunity to snap at me every chance she gets.
"The hell you say about me?! Just you wait mister, you better hope I don't poison your meal later!" shouted Rose.
Yikes, I am in trouble. Speaking of which, I really wonder where did Lily Moonshine went. She had only visited us once and she did not inform us where she went after that. Rose and I were so worried that we might not be able to see her again in our lifetime when she said her farewell about 15 years ago. Thankfully, she came over to visit both Rose and I around 5 years ago. She had certainly gotten more beautiful over the years but to my surprise, she is still single despite so many years had passed. Is she not beautiful in the elven world? What are those male elves looking at nowadays? Sigh.
"Are you done? You do realise that you have to take Daisy to school, right?" asked Rose as she came over.
"Oh, is it time already? I was bored waiting for time to pass and just started rambling to myself," I said.
"Well, now is time for you to go. Go on, get. Before Daisy is late for school," Rose dragged me up and started pushing me.
"Alright alright, look forward to more of my story," I waved at an imaginary audience.
"Bai bai," waved Daisy as she followed after me.
