It is spring, and all things are restless. Even the flowers ask bees and butterflies to spread their pollen. The cute little fox thinks that even he cannot escape the infection of spring.

"After all, I haven't practiced enough. Even if I become a big monster with three tails, I can't escape the law of all things being anxious."

"It's a pity, a shame, a shame, that a great monster that can drive thunder cannot go against the rules of nature. This is something that makes Linghu very sad."

The sad sighs and lamentations echoed in the living room, making people's hearts tremble slightly. However, such melancholy words came from the mouth of a smiling child. He looked at the person opposite quietly and stretched out his hand to push out a sandalwood box.

Without opening the box, Simon knew what was inside.

"I can't tell you openly ≠ I can't tell you secretly"

Along the way, Alice walked stealthily, lowering her voice and mixing in some obviously private words, as well as instigation and persuasion, she told the purpose of the evil fox demon's visit.

Glancing at Frederica, who was sitting on a stool not far away and wiping the knight's sword, Simon coughed twice, straightened his back, and said seriously:

"I can't possibly agree to your request. This is not only for my two daughters, but also for you. As a long-lived species, you are too young. You don't understand how much wear and tear life and death will cause without having truly experienced it."

"Don't imagine that you can overcome wear and tear. This is the fate that all long-lived species cannot escape. Even short-lived species like us have wear and tear, but it's just not too noticeable in our short lives."

As a priest who had joined the Western Church for only a dozen years and had risen steadily, and was even about to take over as a bishop, Simon had developed a good eloquence in the process of counseling people. Coupled with the adventurer's often unconventional thinking, he advised from the perspective of "for your own good":

"You should find a partner who is of the same longevity type as you. Only such a partner can support you throughout your life. You don't have to experience the separation of life and death, and you don't have to worry about it and feel all the sorrow and tears."

"You have a point, but I don't want to listen."

The current servant Yingsai's eyebrows were filled with outstanding willfulness and arrogance. He wore a smile that also meant "for your own good" and politely shook his head to reject Simon's persuasion, and persuaded him earnestly:

"Don't just think about the harm this will cause me. You should think about the benefits it will bring to you. Whether it's humans or monsters, they all have the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm."

"This is an irrefutable fact. This instinct has allowed me to escape countless traps."

"So, Mr. Simon, since you understand the purpose of my coming here, you should know that this matter is in your interest. This matter can save the love between you and your wife that is on the verge of breaking."

The attendant god Yingsai said sincerely:

"You are my friends, you know? When I heard that your relationship was tense, I was worried about it and couldn't sleep. I wished I could be by your side immediately to help you solve your problems."

"Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to travel thousands of miles in a day, so I can't appear by your side immediately to solve your problems. However, God always likes to show leniency, allowing me to arrive in time at the last moment."

He leaned forward and opened the sandalwood box. He heard some hurried footsteps coming from the corridor near the door. The flaming red witch hat and the red paper covered with gold characters in the box appeared in the living room at the same time.

"Hey~ did you miss me?"

Alice made a grand appearance with two little girls.

Alice, who had disappeared without a trace since entering the city gate, brought the last two members of the Gunhild family to this war without gunpowder in time. The attendant Yingsai asked politely:

"Please acknowledge my sincerity, father-in-law and mother-in-law~"

The light words of request were like a rumbling thunder, tearing a hole in this house that seemed to be covered with dark clouds, and unscrupulously pouring out its own lightning, shuttling between the dark clouds in a domineering manner.

"Why are you staring at me with such angry eyes? It's as if you are staring at a Fatui who does all kinds of evil. But I am not like that. No matter what, I will never conduct human experiments casually like Fatui, right?"

A silent answer is the best answer, and a heavy gaze is the best solution. The attendant Yingzhai slowly walked to Simon's back, put his hands behind his back, and asked calmly:

"Is there anything about me that you are not satisfied with? Clothes? No, no, no, my clothes are absolutely perfect. In order to make it more in line with this set of clothes that the clothing store calls aristocratic temperament, I also specially concealed the fox ears and tail. It looks good, right?"

With her long hair tied up with a simple hair tie and hanging on her shoulders, the maid Sakurasai walked slowly to Frederica, bowed slightly, put her right hand on her shoulder, and greeted politely:

"Good morning, may the wind of freedom open up a path for you, may your ideals be as clear as crystal dew, and may you never get lost on the road of chivalry."

"I originally wanted to learn Lawrence's greetings, but unfortunately that guy is too mean. Now I can only teach those flowers and plants in the flower bed. But I think my greetings should be polite, right? I pay attention to this aspect. After all, the Gunhild family is also considered aristocracy."

"You have the same traits as the Lawrence family: stubborn, inflexible, and willing to cling to old rules until death."

Gently provoking Frederica in front of him, the maid Sakurasai patted the corner of his clothes with disgust and complained: "I obviously took good care of it, but the new clothes I bought still got stained with dust. Wow! The age of this dust looks quite old~"

"Haha, remember to clean frequently."

After giving a considerate instruction, the samurai Sakurasai took another step, and this time he came in front of the person who should have been the protagonist of this incident.

"Good morning, Qin. It's been a long time since we last met. Do you still remember me?"

Looking at the girl who was still in a daze, the samurai Sakurasai stretched out his index finger to wake her up, and stared into her gray-purple pupils.

Qin blinked in a daze: "Yingsai...brother?"

"Yes, it's me. Have you been sleeping poorly recently? I can see that you are worried about your family relationship. You think it's your fault. You think if you are willing to work harder and not be so willful and want to have fun, your father and mother will not be like this."

Qin was suddenly startled.

The eyes in front of me, which are so close and seem to have cut open a piece of the sky and painted with pupil color, seem to be flipping through the book named "Qin" with great interest.

"You are worried and sad. You want to use your efforts to ease the relationship between your parents. But how could you, poor you, know that the harder you try, the more your father will be unable to bear it."

"The adventurer who once yearned for freedom was tied up by the knight. He voluntarily stayed in this country known for freedom and wind. He worked hard for the knight and he no longer seemed to yearn for adventure."

"But is this really the case? A person who can suppress his own desires and nature for love is undoubtedly the one who values ​​love the most. The love between lovers and the love between father and daughter are all things he protects."

"Qin, you are also the one that the former adventurer loves. You are the anchor that made him stay here voluntarily. How could he bear to see you suppress your own nature? When the two loves conflict, he will have to make a choice. Your efforts will only lead to the opposite result."

Qin's pupils shrank, and she subconsciously called out: "Father, no..."

"What a sad name!"

The attendant Yingzhai shouted, "I still remember that Qin called you that way. Mr. Simon, how long has it been since you heard your eldest daughter call you dad? Ms. Frederica, how long has it been since you heard your daughter call you mom?"

"Oh, by the way, I remember that Frederica would pick up Jean when she ran towards her. Now let me ask you another question. How long has it been since you hugged your daughter? Do you remember the feeling of her in your arms?"
