Chapter 420: The big boy who was left behind
"Ah?! You mean...my father?"
After hearing this, Feiqi Melos couldn't help but exclaimed in shock. He had thought about the situation where he couldn't bring his old sister back. With his father's character, he would probably come to the imperial capital to arrest people in person.
But he never expected that the other party would come so quickly!
How long has it been since the day when Fitch came to the Imperial Capital and persuaded Ariel to go home at the cocktail party? Grand Duke Melos had already come directly to the Imperial Capital to arrest someone.

It was as if he had no hope that his eldest son would be able to bring his daughter back. From the beginning, he planned to take action and bring her back by himself.
For Fitch, this felt inexplicably a bit of a shock.
Although he really didn't have the ability to bring his sister home. But after all, this was an order given by his father himself, but why did he turn around and do it himself?
Are you so distrustful of the abilities of your own biological son?
"Um."
Bai Bai nodded and looked at him with a slightly sideways look. But she didn't care about his inner thoughts, but she was wondering why this kid was so full of inner drama.
"You don't have to think too much. Your father's visit to the imperial capital is not just to capture Ariel and bring her home."
"Huh? What do you mean...?"
Feiqi had an inexplicable and ominous premonition in his heart.
"I don't know the specifics, but Archduke Melos obviously has some secret deal with Harold..."

After some magic treatment, Ariel looked calmer and more beautiful. She finally stopped moving and explained to him what happened in the imperial city.
…
"So...is that so? Father...actually rebelled and killed His Majesty Brandon?!"
After listening to the pale explanation, Fitch Melos couldn't help but feel a bit of difficulty in his voice. Obviously, this cruel and true fact was somewhat difficult for him to accept.
As the eldest son of the Melos family, his respect for his father, Grand Duke Melos, had been cultivated since childhood.
Now, he suddenly heard that his father was actually a traitor?! He even killed the current emperor with his own hands. If someone else told him this, he would probably find it difficult to believe it.
But out of a pale trust and preliminary understanding of his brother-in-law, he understood that his cheap "brother-in-law" was not someone who could joke around.
Especially for such an important matter, the other party has no reason to fool him.
"I know it's hard for you to accept, but this is indeed your father's choice. Of course, although he helped Harold ascend to the throne, the relationship between the two was not that friendly."
"At best, they can be considered partners who fear each other."

He clasped his pale hands and looked at the girl who was still in a coma, and replied calmly.
"Then why did he hurt my sister so seriously? Is it possible that because she chose to side with Emperor Brandon, he was going to kill her?"
Thinking of this, Feiqi felt a little cold for no reason. Could it be that his father was really such a person? For his own position and choice.
You are actually willing to kill your most beloved biological daughter?!
"You have misunderstood this. Although the injuries on your sister's body were caused by your father, they were not directly caused by him."
Seeing that he misunderstood, Bai Wan kindly explained again.
"What do you mean..."
But this explanation made Fitch seem more and more confused.
"It means that Ariel's injury was not directly caused by your father. Strictly speaking, it can only be regarded as an indirect injury."
Fortunately, Pian was patient enough and took the trouble to explain it.

"Your father is not as cold-blooded as you think. He has not reached the point of killing his own daughter. He just wants to take Ariel home by force."
"Just by taking her home, did my sister... get hurt so seriously?"
Fei Qi couldn't help but twitching when he heard this. For a moment, he didn't know whether to blame his father for being too strong or for being too cruel.
"No way, you don't know the character of your sister and your father."
Bai Bai shrugged, somewhat helpless at the stubbornness and strong character of the father and daughter.
"Grand Duke Melos wants to take Ariel home. Strictly speaking, he also wants to take her away from the limelight. But he doesn't speak nicely, and he wanted to use force to coerce her at the beginning."
"So your sister refused to obey, and in order to resist his forceful coercion, she forcefully used magic beyond her own limits, and then injured herself like this."
"..."
After listening to his explanation, Feiqi was inexplicably silent for a moment. He probably didn't expect it. It turned out that his sister was more ruthless than his father and could hurt him like this.
"What happened next? Did my sister really successfully resist my father?"

When he asked this question, the child actually already had the answer in his mind. After all, although Ariel was seriously injured, didn't she come back?
"You can also say that. Her will and determination finally won your father's affection and attention, so in the end she was not forcibly taken back by Grand Duke Melos."
When he said this, Bai Bai also sighed slightly, wondering if he was sighing for Ariel's determination.
"But it's also possible that your father saw her in such a desperate manner and was afraid that she would really be there, so he was soft-hearted and let her not go home."
"Well, no matter what, at least the matter of my sister not going home is finally over."
Having said this, Feiqi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Even though the girl had to pay a heavy injury and price to prove her will, at least the result was as expected.
She really did it and implemented her own choices and will!
"Eh?! Wait."
However, Fitch suddenly seemed to remember something and asked again with a change of expression.
"Speaking of which...didn't my father mention me when he was fighting against you? Did he tell me when to come home?"

"Forehead……"
Faced with his questioning, Bai Wan was also stunned. After thinking seriously for a moment, his eyes suddenly became more sympathetic when he looked at the miserable child.
"It doesn't seem to be true. Grand Duke Melos has not mentioned you in the whole process. He has been fighting with Ariel."
"Really...is that so..."
After receiving the answer, Feiqi's expression stiffened as expected, and he cried out in tears.
"If I want to find my old sister to go home, I have to mobilize the power of the whole family. It's not enough to order me to persuade her. I have to go all the way to bring her back."
"How come you didn't even mention it to me? Could it be that I picked it up..."
"..."
Looking at his painful expression, Bai Bai was silent for a moment, then patted his shoulder and said.
"Condolences."

Then the baby cried louder.
…
Not long after, after hearing that Ariel had been rescued, Cecil hurried back and asked with concern.
"How's Ellie doing?"
She was still looking after the girl's pale body beside the bed, but she didn't answer immediately when she heard this. Instead, she turned her head and looked at the two girls behind her who were brought back by her.
There was a hint of thoughtfulness in his eyes.
The two girls brought back by Cecil are the two princesses of the Sidel royal family. One of them is naturally Ariel's good friend, the Thirteenth Princess - Nia Sidel.
The other person was a bit surprising, the Sixth Princess - Leifne Sidel. Obviously, it was her appearance that made the pale eyes fluctuate.
After glancing at the two princesses, he nodded and responded.
"Fortunately, it's not a big problem. The injury is basically stable now. She will just rest for a few days after she wakes up."

"Huh - that's good."
After hearing this, Cecil breathed a sigh of relief. After all, it was more important that his precious apprentice was fine. But thinking of the girl's desperate gamble, he still said with a bit of complaint.
"But it's true, this girl, why is she still fighting so hard when she's obviously her biological father? The father and daughter still have to fight to the point of life and death, so why bother?"
"Fortunately, Ellie succeeded by luck this time. If her magic had failed, she would have been drained of all her magic power and spirit and died on the spot."
