Breakthrough with the Forbidden Master Chapter 353: Intermission (Elven Daughter)
In me, there is something that has remained unchanged since my earliest days.
In my tender years, when I was yet untainted and ignorant, my father, a writer, completed a work.
It was with my father’s book that I learned to read and write, and I came to know the tale by heart.
The story is so beloved by the children of my generation in the village where I live, to the point that not one of them is unfamiliar with it.
The sole grievance I harbor is that my father has not penned further chapters of this tale, despite my yearning to see it continue.
My love for this story runs so deep that it is the only complaint I have towards my beloved father.Besides……
Since my early childhood, Sister Espie and Brother Slayer have often visited our village, bringing me souvenirs, playing with me, helping with my studies, and even secretly taking me to the nearby town.
Though they are humans and different from us elves, they are like family to me and everyone in our settlement.
My Father has written many tales, yet among all these works, the one that holds a special place in my heart, the one I love most, has always been and remains this story.
Ever since I was young and declared my affection for it, both Sister and Brother would always seem so pleased, and they would shower me with affection.
I cherish those two dearly as well.
But as of late……
Of late, Sister, Brother, Father, and even Master have been whispering to each other in secret.
It astonishes me to see Sister and Brother, who never show their emotions before us or the others, display such raw anger.
And yet, they won’t tell me the reason or cause of this.
Is it because I am still a child?
Among the long-lived elves, I am but 15 years old.
However, we elves age similarly to humans until we reach the age of 20, after which the pace of aging slows considerably.
Sister and brother were already considered adults by the time they were 15, so while I may still be somewhat inexperienced, I believe I am at least halfway to adulthood.
At the very least……
At the very least, I believe my body has joined the ranks of adulthood.
And yet, being kept in the dark like this, I felt very lonely……
However, it was at such a time that…
“Eh?! F, father……. what do you mean?”
“Hmm? It’s as I say. Amicus, you’ve been asking since you were a child……
“Th, that’s true… but why so sudden? Why would you suddenly decide to continue the tale!?”
Such a shock! Have I ever experienced such a moment before?
To my surprise, Father had declared his intent to pen the continuation of my beloved tale.
Naturally, I was overjoyed.
Yet, I found myself steeped in bewilderment.
This tale was written by Father many years ago. And though I oft implored him to continue it, he would but offer vague responses, never committing to write more.
And now, all of a sudden, he was resolved to do so. Why?
“Haha, it’s not sudden at all…… I did always say so, did I not? When the time is right… and now, the time has finally come.”
Then my father smiled, as if reminiscing about the past.
It was rare to see him smile—usually lazy, prone to procrastination, and somewhat contrary in nature. Yet, in this moment, he smiled, and then…
“At last, the time has come to continue this tale.”
With that, Father raised aloft the copy of “” in his hand.
