"Anyway, Miss Wu Yue, this time jump phenomenon may still occur. I will try my best to pay attention to everything that happens here when you are awake, so please rest assured."

"Well, I'll leave it to you, Mr. Maxim..."

After finishing my conversation with Mr. Maxim, I turned my attention back to my dream.

"Then, I caught it in a jar..."

Carrives talked incessantly about the interesting things that happened to her while playing in the fields, and Lalanoya listened attentively.

Although I can't see my own expression, I think I admire Carrives a lot...

"Wow... I really envy you, Carrives. I want to be like you... but unfortunately... I have never even left the house..."

Lalanoya's eyes lit up at first, then dimmed again...

"Why? Lala, you are not a slave, why don't you go out for a walk?"

"...Um...Dad told me not to go out. He said it's too dangerous outside...There will be bad guys who want to catch me..."

"Um... that's right..."

A beautiful little girl like Lalanoya, with an elf-like appearance, is in a city called Campino where the slave trade is rampant. It is most likely that she is in danger...

"Then why doesn't your father take you away from here and live somewhere safer? Like the Kingdom of Dorok, where it's relatively...safe?"

However, weren't Carriv and "I" captured in Dorok?

"Dad... didn't tell me why, and I didn't dare to ask..."

"Hmm? Could it be that your father's position in the Chamber of Commerce is... not low?" Carrives guessed.

"I don't know... Dad is often not here. He goes out for important things. That's what Uncle Doss, who takes care of me, said."

"I see... My dad is the same, he drinks and gambles all day long... He often doesn't come home. Fortunately, even though he drinks and gambles, at least he's nice to me and mom..." Carrie took the opportunity to complain about her father.

"Where's Wu Yue?" Lalanoya asked me without knowing anything...

"......Um...Lala, Wu Yue's situation is a little..." Carrives explained quickly.

Unexpectedly, "I" actually said:

"...Wu Yue doesn't have a father. From the beginning, only my mother was by my side..."

Unexpectedly, a month later, “I” had regained the ability to communicate normally… at least much better than at the beginning…

"I'm sorry, Wu Yue, I shouldn't have mentioned these things..." Perhaps seeing that I looked a little unhappy, Lalanoya realized that her words were a little inappropriate, and she quickly apologized.

"fine......"

The atmosphere was somewhat solidified.

"Actually, I haven't seen my mother either..." After a moment of silence, Lalanoya spoke.

"Dad said that Mom went to a very far place and would never come back."

Lalanoya spoke in a rather bland tone about the first thing she knew since she was born.

It seems that Lalanoya's mother is no longer alive...

Her father did not hide anything, and it seemed that he did not care whether his daughter's young heart would be hurt...

In the eyes of outsiders, Lalanoya's father might not be considered competent.

As expected, Carriv immediately condemned:

"What a jerk this guy is. Why does he always instill these negative ideas into his daughter..."

Indeed, I feel that some of the remarks made by Lalanoya's father are indeed...

"Carev... don't say that about Dad... He's having a hard time too. That night, I saw him sitting outside the house alone, crying secretly..."

"...So crying is hereditary in your family..."

Carrives' words instantly shattered the solemn atmosphere...

"Ah... Carrie is so bad at talking... I don't want to play with you anymore!" Lalanoya pretended to be angry, jumped off the flower bed, and was about to go back.

"Oh, it's almost time, it's time to get ready for work... Lala, I'm sorry, I was wrong just now, don't take it to heart, come back another day."

"Got it... Goodbye, Carriv, goodbye, Wu Yue!"

Lalanoya said goodbye to each of us one by one, and just as she turned around, she bumped into a man.

"Huh? It's you?" Carriv recognized the man who brought us here at a glance.

“Be aware of your status, little girl. If you use that tone towards others, you’ll get a beating…” the man said in a calm tone.

"Lala, stay away from him. This guy is not a good person. He is not even professional as a human trafficker." Carrives always speaks her mind.

Lalanoya seemed not to hear what Carrie said and ran straight into the man's arms.

"Dad! You're back!"

dad?

This man is actually Lalanoya's father?

The man's face, which had been stained with blood, changed for the first time and became gentle. He reached out and touched Lalanoya's head.

"Well, Dad is back...Have you listened to Uncle Doss during this time?"

"Hmm!" Lalanoya responded and rubbed against her father again.

"That's good... It seems that I have made two friends during this period... Would you like to introduce them to each other?"

"Dad, this is Karif, and the one next to her is Wu Yue, they are both my good friends." Lalanoya happily introduced the two of us to her father.

Even though we have known each other in a not so pleasant way before...

"Thank you for spending time with Lala..." This sentence didn't sound like acting, perhaps it was a sincere thank you.

However, the man changed the subject:

"But...it's better to see each other less often in the future. A relationship of unequal status...will only lead to misfortune in the end...Lala, go home."

Lalanoya obviously didn't understand what her father meant. After saying goodbye to us again, she jumped and followed the man away...

"Tsk... I should have guessed it was this guy earlier... He still speaks so annoyingly..."

After the man left, Carriv complained.

......

Lalanoa's father is... a human?

Then her mother is not...
