"Of course I am your father, but I am also the head of the Frankel family and the Duke of the Empire. I cannot only consider you."
"So you are going to sell me, right?" Ariana, who already understood what her father was going to do, became very unkind.
Although she knew that she was born in such a family and it was a luxury to experience the tenderness between blood relatives, she just longed for these things that were extremely common for ordinary people.
So when she saw that her father was willing to go to war to protect her own safety, she was happy, but now she was also disappointed because her father made her endure it because of the balance of interests.
"What do you mean sold? Who did I sell you to?" The Duke, who noticed his daughter's change in mood, rubbed his brows, his expression changed greatly at this moment, and he looked a little helpless.
"A child of unknown origin suddenly wants to recognize me as his mother, because he has shown great strength at this time, so you want me to endure the crisis that I may encounter at any time, right?"
Although Muria and Ariana have lived peacefully together in the past ten days, the girl still cannot trust Muria and must remain extremely wary of Muria.
"Haven't you two been together for so long? He hasn't done anything to you during this period, so naturally he won't do anything in the future.
And on the other hand, with him by your side, you will be safer. I can withdraw the knights guarding you and do more things."
"Yes, with Mu by my side, the outside world will think that our Frankel family has another powerful person close to the gods. Even if he does nothing, you can use this to expand the family's interests."
"Yes, this is all for the sake of the family, so I hope you can bear with it for a while."
The man who had to choose between the two identities of the family head and the father chose the family head after rational weighing. Because compared to the benefits that the family was about to gain, the sacrifices his daughter had to make were nothing at all.
"Then you haven't thought about me? I'm just a sixteen-year-old girl, and now a seven- or eight-year-old son suddenly appears. How will the outside world view me? How will the Frankel family be viewed?"
"I know that things like this will inevitably lead to some rumors from the outside world, but these are harmless. Over time, these will disappear."
"But the benefits you gained will not disappear."
"I know you will blame me for this, but I believe you can understand that I am the head of the Frankel family and I am responsible for the entire family of nearly ten thousand people.
As long as the interests of the family are not involved, I can do anything for you, but in this matter, I can only wrong you, I'm sorry!"
…
"You are still angry with your father. There is no need. This is a choice that every qualified person in power will make. You have grown up and have been sacrificed by him a lot of times. You are not used to it yet.
?”
In a manor filled with fragrant grass and the fragrance of birds and flowers, Muria admired the refreshing scenery in front of her, turned around, and said to the girl sitting on the roof.
"You are right, my father is a qualified person in power, I should not have expectations for him."
The girl sitting on the roof of a low wooden house, with her hands wrapped around her slender thighs and her chin resting on her knees, said in a somewhat depressed tone.
"Also, there is no need for you to worry about what I will do to you. I will only protect you from any harm from the outside world, so you can rest assured."
"Ha!" Hearing what Muria said, the blond girl sneered twice, "Do you think I have forgotten the scene when we just met? That monster on your shoulder injured me and almost made me die.
Do you think I will forget about it?"
"Ahem," Muria made a fist with one hand, put it under her mouth, and coughed dryly, "It was considered an accident at the time. This kind of thing will not happen again, so don't worry."
"A second time?"
"there is none left."
"What on earth is going on? Don't think I'm blind. I saw it. This monster obeyed your words. If you hadn't thought about it, this monster wouldn't have hurt me at all."
"I want to try to see if my mother's consciousness will awaken when you are near death."
"What was the result of the attempt?"
"Obviously, it failed." Muria spread her hands helplessly, this result made her very disappointed.
"In this case, does it prove that I am not the reincarnation of your mother?"
"I said, I can see that my mother is sleeping in your body."
"Whatever you say, with your strength, no matter what you want to do to me, my family will probably not interfere." Ariana responded gloomily.
She still doesn't know the identity of Muria at all, so she is naturally half-believing in what Muria says. But under such circumstances, her family pushed her away from this child and asked her to recognize him as their son.
"No matter what you do? Your family will not interfere?" After hearing this, Muria's eyes narrowed and her expression became subtle.
"What do you want to do?" Seeing Muria's face, the girl suddenly became wary.
"Are you interested in traveling with me?" Muria smiled and extended an invitation to the reincarnation of her mother.
"What?" A big doubt appeared in the blond girl's little head.
"The world is so big, don't you want to see it?"
"You want to take me away? Where?"
"Go wherever you want to go." Muria opened her arms, "The sky is high and the sea is vast, let us roam."
"Not interested." The girl immediately refused without hesitation. She was confused, so she ran out with a child of unknown origin and excessive strength.
"If you object, that's okay. I'll just let you know. If you agree, that's fine. If you don't agree... haha."
"You want to force me again, I am your mother." The girl raised her eyebrows and said to Muria with great dissatisfaction, "Did you talk to me like this before I was reincarnated?"
"Of course not, I don't have the courage yet."
"Then you still treat me like this."
"Who makes you have no memory now?"
"It's my fault!"
"Okay, is there anything else you want to do here? I've done it for you. After you fulfill all your wishes, you can follow me on your way."
"On the road? What to do?"
"Find your mate, my father, and my wife, your daughter-in-law."
"Something went wrong with them? Have they all been reincarnated?"
"Yes, they have all been reincarnated! So we must find them as soon as possible to prevent accidents."
