Chapter 53 - Lucy Greyrat Grimoire

Hello, my name is Lucy, I am the firstborn of Rudeus Greyrat. 

I have 3 other sisters and two brothers 

Unlike my father, I have 3 mothers, white mother my biological mother, blue mother who is of the Migurd race and finally my deceased red mother 

My whole life has been quite calm, the truth is, I spent my childhood and adolescence at my parents' house until I married my husband Clive. 

I met my husband when I was a little girl, he was what you could call my childhood friend.

When I was little I didn't go through many difficulties...well almost none actually, I spent my days like a normal girl but my immature mind instilled in me a stupid idea...

Now that I analyze it, at that time I thought I was very mature but all I see is that I was still an immature brat.

All this happened when on my 10th birthday, until that moment I had not realized it but from that day an idea began to form in my head.

(sigh) my father doesn't expect anything from me, that's what I thought

the reason?

For my 10th birthday my father gave me beautiful emerald earrings and a blue earring.

I know he did it with good intentions, he wanted to give me something nice, you know? But what did I think? That my father only did it out of commitment.

A totally stupid idea I know, but...why did this idea form in my little mind at that time? 

let me explain to you

Before, on my younger brothers' 5th birthdays I always noticed that they were given specific things or they always made comments about a specific topic.

With my sister Lara, they gave her tunics or some other wand and they always told her "you are the chosen one, you must take your training seriously." I never really understood what it was about the chosen one, but I knew that it was something very important, although from what I see my little sister she never take it seriously

With my little brother Ars it was the same, they always gave him swords or made him do jobs in the company where dad works and in the mercenary company.

Red's mother always told him things like "Ars! You are the heir of House Greyrat so you should act as such", although looking at it I am glad that despite being the firstborn, they did not force me to do the things they did to her. pass to my poor little brother Ars

With my little sister Lili, they always gave her all kinds of mafia artifacts and she already had a clear goal, in fact she developed the MK3, my father's most powerful battle armor.

Although well on the other hand my little sister Christina was a simple girl, she was given the same things as me, she likes dresses, necklaces and a simple life and she considered herself like a princess... Well...she ended up becoming a princess technically.

Honestly, these kinds of things just left me super confused.

It didn't help that Dad was almost always not home.

and when I asked him what to do he just answered me

"do what you want with your life"

What is that supposed to mean?

How can i know?

Dad never gave me an answer to this and that only increased my doubts.

As I grew older my doubts became more and more serious which made me resent my father.

He was almost like a being from another dimension for a girl like me.

The great Rudeus Greyrat, 7th world power, god of education, right hand of the Dragon God, was something simply unattainable for me, because of this I tried very hard to be recognized by my father.

I trained very hard in both sword and magic.

Because of this I became a saint in the Water God Style at the age of 14, In addition, it was advancing in the style of Sword God Style and North God Style

I also inherited a great talent for magic from my father When I turned 15 I reached saint rank in all styles of magic and unlike My father, I was able to do healing spells without enchantment.

I tried very hard at everything, I became student council president at Ranoa University when I was only 11 years old, I got the best grades and tried to be the best big sister for my younger brothers

But...despite all my efforts in these areas my father did not praise me...I just wanted that...to be praised by my father and for him to give me a purpose in my life...was it too much to ask?...

When I turned 13 that feeling became too strong to ignore and I reached my breaking point.

At a sword training session with my younger siblings Lara, Ars and Siegh I was overwhelmed and ended up crying in front of them.

-Come on sister, it's obvious that dad is proud of you - Ars tries to cheer up in those moments

-No, it's not true! Dad doesn't expect anything from me- I answered with that overwhelming feeling

I felt like I was at the bottom of a ravine from which I couldn't get out.

But it was at that time that my husband Clive helped me carry the load.

From that moment on I became very close to him and after a few years I inevitably fell in love with him.

To my surprise, Dad gave us his blessing without any problems.

I still had this overwhelming feeling in me.

I married Clive when I was 17

He and I got married in the local Sharia church

There were no setbacks and we became husband and wife.

Maybe because in those years dad was always very absent because he was forming allies to defeat his sworn enemy Hitogami, who as I emphasize again, was almost never at home.

Perhaps because of this my dad never suspected my mood towards him.

But on my wedding day he stood in front of me and said these words that I will never forget.

"My daughter, I am very proud of you, I was almost never there for you but I could see how much you tried, this filled me with pride like you have no idea, do what you want with your life my daughter as long as you are happy"

Those words...those simple words left me in shock and I burst into tears right there.

That was the day I reconciled with my father, that day I told him everything that afflicted me and how hard I tried for being recognized by my father

This left him clearly in shock and he always wanted us not to be tied to any kind of prejudices or predestined things.

My father always wanted the best for us and would support us in whatever we did as long as we were happy with it.

There I realized my own stupidity, I was so blinded by some recognition from my father that I forgot to live for myself

From that day on my relationship with my father became better.

Even after moving with my husband Clive to Millis which is practically on the other side of the world my relationship with my dad never wavered.

That was until his death...

It's been 5 years since then and now a new rumor has reached Millis

That the armored dragon king has revived my father?!...

-How is this possible?!- I said louder than usual as I read the morning paper

We are in the middle of the first month of the year K487 and according to this newspaper the news was given almost a month ago!!!

Why did you get here so late?

Although, well... news of this type must be thoroughly corroborated before being published or it would just be a mere widely spread rumor.

I am currently in my living room reading the newspaper, this has become a habit of mine in recent years...

Until this news arrived...

I must corroborate it personally

In addition to that my father-in-law Pope Clifth He had also heard about this

We met at my house and it was decided that I, my husband and my mother-in-law Elinalise would go to the Sharia to confirm this fact.

Also I heard that Lara is currently in the big forest right?

I must warn her about this too.

But...it's the rainy season...I don't know how long it will take for the news to reach him...

Without wasting any more time we headed to the nearest teleportation circle to go to Sharia.

I must confirm this well...has dad really been resurrected?...
