Chapter 25 - Date with the girls

The three sisters were in a great mood today.

Why?

It seemed that everyone's day off happened to fall on today.

Elsa was off-duty, Anna also got her first day off in a long time, and Meryl had decided to take a day off from school.

And I took a break from works too.

Instructor of the Knight Order, an adventurer, and part-time lecturer at the Magic Academy.

It was really a hectic day, so I needed a break for a while.

Since all of my family members had the day off, we all decided to go out today. The four of us had to forget about work and spent the day together without any disturbance.

"Yaaayy! Today's a date with Papa?!"

Meryl, in her pajamas, hugged me.

"Oioi. You're up really early today."

"Cause I'll have a date with Papa today. I don't want to waste the time to fall asleep. I want to stay with Papa for as long as possible, even if it's just for a minute or a second longer?."

"Really, what a good girl you are, if you wake up earlier every day. Then you wouldn't be late."

Anna said in amazement.

"I'm a moody person. I won't move when I'm not in a good mood. I don't feel like doing anything when Papa's not here."

"Meryl. I don't know how you were able to live on that before Papa came to Royal Capital."

"I used to go back to the village once a week to replenish Papanium energy. Amount of Papanium that worth supply one week activity here."

"What do you mean that..... replenish Papanium energy?" asked Elsa dubiously.

"Nn~. Be spoiled by papa and beg him to do things for me. Anyway, when I lovey-dovey with Papa, I replenish Papanium energy?, Right~ Papa."

"That was so..."

I looked far away as I thought of those days.

In those days, Meryl came home once a week and begged me all kinds of things.

She wanted me to pat her head, gave her a hug, kissed her cheek, took a bath with her, held her hand until she fell asleep, changed all her clothes when she woke up.... Etcetera.

Wait? It is not much different than now, is it?

"Meryl. You can't trouble papa like that forever. Do you want to be a bad child who can't stand on your own?"

"Kaay~?."

Meryl responded without any sign to be offended.

"The natural character that has made up of me and Papa, is for us to support each other. We're going to lovey-dovey with each other for the rest of our lives."

"She's turning on again...."

Anna put her hand on her forehead.

"It's nice to hear you say it, but.... As long as I and Meryl are father and daughter, I'm almost certainly going to die first. Either it's an illness or a duty. So Meryl needs to be able to stand on your own."

"Don't worry! Even if Papa dies before me, I'll bring Papa back to life!"

"B, bring me back?"

"Yes! Even if you died, I'll bring your soul back and put it in your restored body, and you will return to normal. Then you'll be able to live forever without worrying about life span. Fufu. I and Papa will be together for hundreds of years."

"Ee...."

Meryl was saying something outrageous in a light tone.

That was to say, she would make immortality a reality.

Since the dawn of history, all humans had been scrambling east and west in search of immortality, but no one has yet achieved it.

"She's a true genius... perhaps, it's not impossible for her. Because she'll show a ridiculous talent when it comes to stuffs that involving Papa. The reason why she invented magical tools because she wants to do something useful for people and get praise from Papa."

"So that means..."

"Papa, sorry. You may have to take care of Meryl forever."

"I have no time to rest eh?"

"Meryl. I'll support your research. I share your desire for Papa.... Chichiue to stay alive."

"Eh?"

"N. No, it doesn't mean that――I don't want to leave you, Chichiue! Because such spoiled stuff is not necessary for the Knight Commander. It's just ... ummm ... there's no point in beating Chichiue who has been old and blunt."

"Haha. Make sure you can beat me before I get old, okay."

I couldn't help but chuckle.

Elsa was still steadily getting stronger every day. One day, not too far away, she would surely become a far stronger swordsman than I am.

Well.........

I wanted to stick it out for a little while longer in order to maintain my dignity as a father.

"By the way. If Meryl completes the research of immortality, will you apply it to us?"

"Of course I'll. We're a family. I, Papa, Elsa, and Anna, we're going to spend a lifetime full of love, aren't we??"

"That's wonderful to hear. If I can live in eternity without losing my young body, I'll be able to achieve higher heights as a swordswoman."

"We can hold all the authority of this country. It will be a good country if we eliminate the old people who are degenerating now."

Each of the girls was imagining the things they would do after they became immortal.

"Well. I suppose it's good to think about the future. It's a holiday that we have longed. Let's just enjoy the holiday for now."

I said, and the girls nodded happily.
