Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start Chapter 462 Thank You For Being My Father

-----

After learning and feeling relieved Eleanora had grown so attached with Erika that she didn't felt jealous of her advances with anymore, we reached back ho. The first thing we saw was my father cooking large steaks of Wild Giant Boar and skewers of the sa at in smaller chunks. Alongside that, there was also chicken at and even fish, sothing new that has begun to beco part of our daily life als.

Apparently upon the purification of the forest, the swamps quickly changed and ended becoming a pristine lake which later connected to many new rivers that showed up. This made it so fish started popping out everywhere, and fishing now beca a daily activity. There was a variety of fish in the lake and rivers, all of them edible.

Because there was such a plenty of fishes and they multiplied incredibly quickly due to the richness of mana and spiritual essence infused in the whole forest, freshwater fish suddenly beca a staple food for our village. And not only fish, but small crustaceans also started showing up, such as freshwater crabs, shrimps, and lobsters, all of them delicious.

"Hey, look who's back! Did Eleanora evolved?" My father asked.

"Yeah. I am all evolved now!" Eleanora showed up before father.

"Hm? You kind of look the sa to …" He said while raising an eyebrow.

"Eh?! I-I did change!" Eleanora pouted. "Geez…"

"Hahaha, relax, relax! Anyways- Oh?"

My father suddenly was about to talk about sothing, but quickly stopped, looking at and Erika… we were still holding hands without noticing. We quickly let go of each other's hands, as Erika blushed a bit.

"Oh? What's this? Since you were little kids that you haven't done that anymore…" My father began rubbing his chin while smiling. "Sothing's up here, isn't it?"

"W-Well…" Erika felt too nervous to speak.

I hugged her shoulder as I told father to not pursue the topic.

"Let it be dad. She doesn't want to adress it."

"Oh, okay, sorry. My bad."

Thankfully father was understandable about these things.

As we walked inside ho, however, he stopped a bit, asking Erika to go inside to talk with . He also asked the sa to Eleanora. As the two walked inside ho, father and I had a small chat.

"Alright… So what I am assuming happened, isn't it?"

"…What are you assuming?"

"That you two are in… a relationship?"

"Not so… But we both kissed."

"That's more or less!"

My father suddenly got happy out of the blue, as he began rubbing my head like he was proud of .

"I knew my boy would get to it eventually! You're as handso as your father after all! Erika was always in love with you, your mother and I always knew you would end up together eventually."

"This is… rather embarrassing to talk about."

"It's fine, I am your old man, co on!"

"Sigh… Yeah, maybe we'll get to a relationship, but that'll take its ti."

"I know you like things to go slowly. You're overly cautious about everything. To be honest I didn't really thought you would ever let her get to you like that, but I guess I was wrong. My son has really grown up."

"You think so?"

"Of course… You've grown up so much that sotis I miss when you were smaller and grumpier."

My father began to laugh rrily.

I guess I'll miss this old man…

"Thank you dad."

"Eh? Why?"

"For… being my father."

"Huh?"

"You have been a figure I've looked up to since I was a kid."

Even though I once thought of him as a lowly human, I started to admire his strength, his personality, and his tenacity. Slowly, I changed my perspective and stopped looking at people in such a way, realizing everyone had their unique talents.

I suppose I looked up to him because despite the adversities we have faced as a poor family, he always fought to protect us, to bring us food, and to always make sure we were happy. No matter what. He even went as far as battling the demons and the undead armies, despite risking his life.

"You're an amazing man, thank you for raising ."

"Blake…"

My father smiled back at and then hugged tightly.

"I am also happy my first son was you. You're the best, kid."

I suddenly felt as if his tears were flowing over my shoulders.

"You're so talented. Sotis I felt overwheld by everything you did… Over ti, I took everything for granted, but I suppose you're still my kid, that baby I had to change the diapers from and all… Let tell you that your father's proud of you."

My father quickly cleansed his tears as he smiled back at .

"Thank you… I guess I needed to hear that."

It made feel happy, a happiness I never thought I would feel before. The happiness of being praised, to make the ones important to you proud…

"Alright, let's go inside now-"

"Papa, I'm hungy!"

"Is fish done?"

Suddenly, two little five-year-old children ca running out of the backyard. They were my two little siblings, the twins Anna and Allan. These last years I've dedicated myself to help my family at raising them, from changing their diapers, to washing their clothes, to make them special food babies could eat, to bring them nutritious ingredients for their baby diets, and so on.

They have beco an important part of my heart, my two little siblings. Anna was very energetic, like Erika. She took a lot from her, as she had been playing with the twins since they were one year old. Anna is very adventurous, often dragging along the calr Allan with her into her shenanigans.

anwhile, Allan is a calm boy, not as much as I was, but he was very observant of his surroundings, perhaps slightly afraid of the world, but it is understandable at his age. Nonetheless, Anna always dragged him along, so she was always there for him. I can trust her in protecting my little brother.
