Chapter 1131 The Mind Forgets, But The Heart Will Always Remember [Part 3]

After the meeting ended, Aurora and Lux retired to the young lady's temporary room in Barbatos Academy.

Of course, Eiko went with them because she had a lot of stories to tell to her Papa.

Lux attentively listened to all of them, and he couldn't help but smile due to how animated Eiko looked when she started telling him about how she fought against the Abyssal Lords and how she protected the Ford Federation from their attacks.

She even shared with him the story of how the King of the Island Nation of Torstein begged for her help in repelling the Abyssal Army that had reached their borders.

"Pa!"You'll find the origin of this content at n0velb!n•

"You're amazing, Eiko!"

"Pa!"

"Good girl. You did well."

The Baby Slime giggled after receiving her Papa's praise. She truly missed Lux, and she didn't want to part with him for the time being.

As long as nothing drastic happen in the territories under her control, Eiko planned to stay with Lux, until she was satisfied.

Of course, Lux was more than happy to spend some time with the Baby Slime, who was acting like a spoiled child who wanted his attention.

Even Aurora found this side of Eiko very cute, and she simply listened at the side as the Father and Daughter pair chatted happily.

"Pa..." Eiko looked at her Papa with a sad expression on her face.

Lux sighed and lightly patted her head. "I know, Eiko. Don't worry. I'll find a way to make your Mama recover her memories."

"Un." Eiko nodded before closing her eyes to enjoy her Papa's petting.

She couldn't understand why she was reacting like this whenever a topic involved the Half-Elf, whom she had just met. However, the more she thought about him, the more painful it felt seeing him with Aurora, especially with Eiko in the mix, making them look like a family.

"I-I told him that I need some time to think about it," Cai answered. "I mean, I just met him. Everything feels rushed, and yet, why do I feel that being with him is just right? I don't understand why I am feeling this way, but these are my honest feelings. How about you, Iris? Did your Father mention anything similar to mine?"

"..."

"Sir Alexander did?"

lightsnοvεl Iris reluctantly nodded her head.

This happened after Lux, Eiko, and Aurora left her residence together.

Maximilian called for Cai, while Alexander talked to Iris in private.

Just like the Patriarch of the Rowan Tribe, Alexander brought up the Half-Elf in their conversation.

He asked Iris if she was willing to become Lux's fiance, which surprised her.

"Don't you feel like my father and your grandpa seemed to know Lux?" Iris asked. "The way they look at him is different from how they look at the people who have tried to ask for my hand in marriage."

"Now that you mention it, my Grandpa doesn't look at him with hostility." Cai frowned. "Maybe he can tell that Lux is a good person?"

"Well, since Eiko is close to him, that means that he isn't a bad person," Iris nodded. "Also, I am honestly surprised that she kept on calling him Pa. If other young men were to try to hold her like that, she would not hesitate to throw Blast Bombs at them."

Cai giggled because she had personally witnessed such scenes in the past. Many young men wanted to get close to Iris, and some of them thought that if they managed to become good friends with the Baby Slime, whom she treated as her daughter, they would only be a step away from making Iris fall for them.

But the only thing they got from this attempt was a Blast Bomb in the face, making them flee for their lives.

"Iris, why don't we both agree to become his fiancee?" Cai asked. "That way, the two of us can always be together. What do you think?"

Iris thought for a while after hearing Cai's proposal. Although she didn't want to admit it, she felt a very strong connection to the Half-Elf.

It was as if he was the last piece of the puzzle that would complete her, making her understand what it was like to truly fall in love with someone, which she had never felt in the past.
