Chapter 810 Return to a Normal Life

Chapter 810 Return to a Normal Life

Seeing their reactions, Kisuke instantly felt a bit of guilt. They still missed their precious daughter, their only child, very much and despite their accepting stance, they became extremely excited when they heard that Aika came back with him.

Honoka grabbed Haruto's clothes and gestured for him to sit back down, but even her perfect smile couldn't hide how she's feeling and asked, "W-where is she? Why is she not with you? Is she alright?" But as she progressively questioned Kisuke, more and more negative thoughts entered the couple's mind and increased their anxiety.

"Please rest assured that she's safe. I didn't bring her with me for a reason, but you'll see her soon."

The couple instantly guessed that it has something to do with the other thing that Kisuke mentioned aside from apologizing personally and calmed themselves down to properly listen to him, "Go on, please." Haruto asked Kisuke to continue.

Directly getting to the point, Kisuke answered, "I want Aika to return to her normal life. Without any of this supernatural stuff, either temporarily or permanently."

"I'm sorry, but I don't understand." Honoka creased her brows. If Kisuke wanted to return Aika to a normal life, she knew he probably had a way to do so. What she's confused about were the last terms, 'temporarily or permanently.

"To explain, I sealed all of her memories that are related to the supernatural world. Along with those, were the entirety of her abilities, reducing her to a normal high school girl once more."

"Are you going to do the same to us?", Haruto asked while feeling a bit apprehensive.

Contrary to their expectations, Kisuke shook his head, "No. It's because I want you to watch over her with your newfound knowledge."

At that point, Honoka finally understood what Kisuke really meant to do and said, "I see. So Aika would be able to break those seals of yours if she truly wants to, hence either temporarily or permanently. Am I correct?"

Kisuke nodded at her, "You're absolutely right. As time progresses, those seals would grow stronger and stronger until to the point where Aika won't be able to recognize them anymore, nor have the power to break them."

"But there's a correlation." Haruto immediately fired back.

"Let's just say that I'm a bit special. Aside from lifespan and natural ability to use Magic and understand all the languages on Earth, Devils aren't very different from Humans in their ways and society."

Meanwhile, as Haruto distracted Kisuke for a bit, Honoka was able to rearrange her thoughts. This has always been the case for the couple. While Haruto is the brawn, Honoka does all the thinking for complicated and complex matters without breaking her husband's trust.

Kisuke, of course, instantly noticed this and just entertained Haruto with his whimsical questions.

'This is a great situation for us...' Honoka thought, '...It should be and we should just go with this without any further questions asked... But I don't like how he's just discounting my daughter's feelings...'

"But..." Honoka spoke up with great hesitation and the two men stopped their talk. She didn't want to say it because Kisuke might pull back from this and they wouldn't have a chance to escape this inexplicable world that contained terrifying beings, as just obtaining knowledge about them was already a curse to normal people like them.

However, she understood her daughter the most and despite talking to her through a hologram, she also somewhat understood what she's going through, "But... Aika would surely hate you if she were to remember all of this. She might despise you for this stunt you're going to pull on her and might even push her away from you. Are you fine with that?"

Nevertheless, Honoka still viewed Kisuke as a 'child' and underestimated him, "I'm fine with that.", Kisuke replied with a light smile on his face.

This answer, however, gave Honoka a wrong impression and she was instantly pissed. But before she could say anything, Haruto suddenly raised his arm and stopped her, "Haruto... Aren't you going to say anything!? This man doesn't really care about our daughter!"

Though instead of replying to her anger, Haruto calmly faced Kisuke, "You still have places you need to go. Don't worry about us."

Kisuke stood up and said, "Thank you for having me. In about an hour, I'll teleport Aika to her bedroom, so be sure that it's free." He then directly left the house without saying anything further and teleported after gaining some distance.
