Chapter 40 - I'm here now

-dad!!!!- Christina screamed as she lunged at me and hugged me tightly

-uuuu....daddy.....(Sniff)....I was...so devastated when you passed away..(sniff)...uuuu- sobbed Christina

Oh man this is bad...I only know this girl by name...but she remembers me as her dad....I have to give her the luxury, Deciding this, I hugged him back and stroked his head gently.

-Shhh, now... now, darling, I'm here- I said.

-Daddy....- she murmured as she continued to hug me

I turned to look at the others, Nanahoshi was smiling but had a complicated expression, Alek was uncomfortable, King Timothi looked at the scene moved and Orsted and Peragius did not flinch at all.

A middle-aged man entered the throne room

Her hair is blonde and her eyes are brown, her face reminds me of Ariel but a boy.

It must be Edward, right?

Noticing the man Christina stopped hugging me and stood next to the man

-Well... so it's true... I guess... welcome back Mr. Greyrath- said Edward making a noble salute

I returned the greeting And I decided to play along.

-Yes, thank you very much Edward, it's good to be back- I told him with a smile

Christina was a mess, she had a big smile on her face as she cried and wiped his snot....

-Daddy...you were gone for 5 years, you know that right?- said Christina while trying to calm down.

Oh man...now how do I explain it?....

-Yes... I've already noticed hehe- I said uncomfortably.

-Well, Princess Christina, would you allow us a moment while we finish this meeting please?- said the king.

It's true we were making the letters to the other kingdoms....

-Huh?!...but my daddy....- said Christina while looking at me desperately

-We'll talk when this is over, dear- I said with a smile.

-...Alright....- she said with a sad expression

Edward bowed to me again and left with Christina.

..

..

The rest of the meeting didn't last too long, the king offered us lodging but we declined the offer as we needed to spread the news quickly, but I asked Peragius for time to speak to Christina They agreed but told me it wouldn't take long, Nanahoshi decided to return to the Chaos Breaker to wait for me while I talked to Christina

It didn't take long to find her as she was literally in the other hallway but now Edward was no longer with her...how odd...

-Daddy, are you free now?- Christina asked me as she approached me And he caught me in a big hug...

Seriously...acting like this she looks like a little girl.

I could feel the sensation of his breasts pressed in my ch-.... noooo!!!! Don't think about it!!!!!.

Suppressing these horrible thoughts I looked into her eyes

She looked totally happy and his eyes were full of admiration, I guess my future version was a good father, right?

-Honey, how have you been?- was the first thing that occurred to me to say to her.

-Horrible...these years without you were the most terrible of my life...I could only bear it for my dear Edward and my children...but I still missed you so much Daddy...- she said as she buried her head on my chest and...she's inhaling?!....

-I-I see dear, but you don't have to worry, I'm here again now- I said while trying to push her away from me without being abrupt.

This surprised her instantly and she looked at me with wide eyes.

-r-really??!!- she asked excitedly

-Yes, really, but I still have a lot of things to do Chris- I said while caressing his cheeks

-I still have to introduce myself to your other brothers and inform the other kingdoms of my resurrection- I added seriously.

His expression changed to one of surprise and then sadness, he tried to say something but instead he just nodded.

-I understand daddy...it's just that...I didn't have you for so long and now that I get you back you'll be absent.- She said as tears formed in her eyes again.

I quickly hugged her and kissed her on the forehead which made her blush?.....what?..

-Calm down, dear, if we hurry we can inform all the kingdoms in less than two months and we will also have a meeting with all your brothers- I told her enthusiastically.

She just nodded but looked more relaxed.

-Does Mama White and Blue know about your resurrection?- asked Christina

-They were the first to find out- I replied.

-I see...and how did they take it?- she asked.

-Better than you, crybaby- I said while pinching her nose.

Christina frowned and struck the trademark Eris Greyrath pose, legs apart, arms crossed, head held high.

-I'm talking seriously daddy!!- Christina said angrily

-Yeah, yeah, sorry, they were shocked at first but they took it well.- I told her as I pulled her into another hug.

-hmmp!-, she turned her head with an angry expression but she did not refuse the hug

As we hugged there was a comfortable silence until Christina spoke.

-Daddy...how was it?...you know...dying...what did you see?...what did you feel?- she asked doubtfully.

Oh wow...I didn't think anyone would ask me about this...what do I do?...do I tell them the Christian or the atheist end?...

-It was just darkness Chris...., from one moment to the next....I closed my eyes and saw darkness for a few moments and then I woke up in the Chaos Breaker- I told Christina hoping she would believe it

-Darkness?...I see...it must have been scary daddy...- she said as she hugged me tighter

-I'm so glad you're here again...I'm already looking forward to us all getting together soon!- she said

-Yes, I hope so too- I told him.

-Oh... so that's what the meeting was for...- Christins murmured.

-What do you mean?- I asked.

-Almost a week ago, Mr. Orsted contacted me about a meeting to discuss an important issue...and he said that only my brothers and I should attend- she said.

-So that's what it was for, huh? To see you! - he said as he separated from my hug

-Yes, it was less than two weeks ago that I was resurrected and I wanted to meet my children- I told him.

Christina was about to answer when a ray of light appeared in front of us.

-Rudeus Greyrat, Lord Peragius asks you to hurry - said the ray of light that was actually Almanfi

Seriously, Peragius is desperate...

-Okay, I'm coming- I said.

Almanfi nodded and left in another ray of light

I looked at Christina and she had a sad expression but quickly changed it to a professional one.

-It's okay daddy, you're alive and that's all that matters, I can't wait for us all to be together- she said with an excited tone

-Yes haha, I hope so too, make sure you bring your children Christina- I said laughing

-eh...I'll try...- she replied

..

..

Shortly after Edward returned and I said goodbye to him, before leaving Christina caught me in another strong hug which I reciprocated and kissed her forehead.

Christina...blushed again...

-See you, dear- I said as I took out the teleportation staff and played the golden flute that Orsted gave me.

-Edward looked at me confused but Christina whispered something in his ear and he took on a shocked expression and nodded to himself.

Feeling the symptoms of teleportation magic I said goodbye to Christina from being teleported to the Chaos Breaker

..

..

Peragius let us teleport to Sharia and he returned with the Chaos Breaker

Me, Alek, Nananoshi and Orsted teleported outside Sharia

Uuuuuuf....in Asura winter doesn't feel as harsh as here.....I had completely forgotten....

Because Asura is in the south of the continent and has the Dragon Mountains as a natural barrier, the snow turns into water that falls to the ground forming rivers, lakes and making the land fertile.

On the other hand, in this part of the continent we receive all the cold directly.

In short, I'm freezing!!!

..

..

Alek and Orsted separated from us halfway and so Nanahoshi and I were left walking alone.

-uuuuug...why does winter have to be so cold- said Nanahoshi while rubbing her nose

His nose, cheeks and lips are pink from the cold.

-Do you want me to warm you up?- I asked her as I brought her closer to me.

-Yes, but in bed...- she told me with her cheeks flushed, but now I didn't know if it was because of embarrassment or the cold.

-Whatever you want, dear- I replied.

-Good!- she answered me while hugging my arm

It seems I have a lot of work left, huh?
