I Am Raising a Daughter in This Life 53

Senior and junior (1)

once sometime

There was a time when she came back full of scars. That too while being held in Master’s hand.

“Oh, are you okay now?”

“It’s okay! It’s not enough to be beaten by those guys!”

“Who gets hurt? Just don’t make a fuss about being slightly injured!”

“Since you foolishly threw it, it’s no different than what happened! As expected, it seems that the S-level screening was still early. Think again.”

Master and her argued more fiercely than usual, and I did not dare to intervene.

I’m sure sparks will fly out of me and I’ll be in trouble.

As always, it was my job to calmly prepare for the furniture from being damaged in the back.

Still, this incident was entirely her fault, so she had no choice but to bow down in the end. She herself would know best that Master was also worried about her.

Even so, she did not go quietly.

“it’s okay! I’ll catch the stronger one later and make it so you can’t even shout! Prepare for old age quickly!”

“I-I… … Ugh, who the hell do you look like, Won.”

Seeing Master snorting with his arms crossed, it was clear who he resembled.

In the end, I knew Master wouldn’t go after her, so it was up to me to follow her. Even with the first aid kit.

Without having to go far, she locked herself in her room and fortunately allowed me to visit.

He accepted my excuse to give me treatment.

Her treatment skills were very poor, probably because she had almost never been hurt.

I just applied a cheap potion and wrapped a clumsy bandage, so I had to remove them all and do it again.

“Aww, take it easy.”

“If I don’t tighten it up, it will be ugly, but will it be okay?”

“If you get a scar, you won’t let go.”

“Ooh, that’s scary.”

As I smiled and tied it tighter, she grimaced and endured the pain.

It was not a deep wound, but it was dirty as if it had been cut with a sharp blade, and it was even worse because no proper treatment was taken after that.

It didn’t look like it would be scarred, but I continued the treatment as carefully as possible.

Seeing as if he was not accustomed to bitterness, he kept frowning.

“How did you do this? I heard it’s not a very difficult quest.”

“It really wasn’t difficult. Seriously, if we stuck together, we could have decided in 10 seconds. But, uh… … !”

“however?”

“But don’t those bastards be downright mean?!”

I got a sense of what was going on.

Although she was already an A-class mercenary by raising her rank unprecedentedly quickly, it was achieved through overwhelming swordsmanship.

Fighting strong monsters was what she wanted, and on the contrary, when it was not easy to see a match with strength, she became very weak.

As much as his weaknesses are clear, he must have met a monster that stabbed those parts properly and became so scarred.

“Is the opponent a monster?”

“Of course it is. My teeth still tremble because of them.”

“Isn’t it strange to be mean to those guys? If you look at it coldly, they are fighting for their lives.”

“That, that… … .”

At my words, she mumbled and chose the words, but in the end, she couldn’t say the right words until I finished the treatment.

I smiled and closed the lid of the first aid kit, then opened my mouth again.

“Well, you could say that the compatibility wasn’t good, but… … Were you alone this time?”

“Of course.”

“That’s why I’m going to throw a party. Wouldn’t this have happened if there had been someone who complemented what you couldn’t respond to?”

“Oh, don’t talk. There are only those who are all weak. If you want to be able to see a little bit of skills, why don’t you have other impure intentions. I hate dealing with bad guys.”

With the fame of being the daughter of the mercenary king, the skills that matched her, and her outstanding appearance, there was no way others would leave her alone.

I expected that to be the case, but after hearing such a story from him, I felt uncomfortable.

“Then can I help you?”

I mustered up the courage to say it.

I can’t say that I don’t have any impure intentions, but I think they’re better than those she said.

As I waited for an answer with a little nervous heart, a smirk escaped from her.

“No matter how long I’ve known seniors, shouldn’t the grades match? Senior, can you follow me if you just got a B grade? My dad will never allow it.”

He was aware of it, but he couldn’t help but feel his face flush when he was pointed out.

Looking at my face like that, she smiled bashfully and added a word.

“Even if it’s an A grade, I’ll consider it after I get it. At that time, I will be beyond the S rank, but heck.”

“I definitely remembered those words.”

“reel? Why are you straight and like that? Are you seriously aiming for my side?”

“I’ll catch up to you soon and make it so you don’t even make noise.”

“Ah, why would you do that again!”

She jumped up after being teased, but it was undeniable that the conversation boosted my spirits.

Thanks to that, I was able to get an A in the end, and in the meantime, I was often able to help her.

After that, we actually received a request together and solved it.

Like she said, she really became an S-class mercenary, but I was still not enough to stand next to her. It was all I could do to follow her, but she said that I was helping her a lot.

I swore I’d catch up with her someday… … The day the oath was fulfilled never came.

this guy’s life.

Even though I was prepared and careful, it didn’t work out as I thought.

Why was I absent due to work, why was Douglas with me, why it was not easy to receive a report, why we ended the move the moment we missed the report, and why the destination was our house?

At this level, I wondered if my life itself was a problem. Oh, that was a problem from the beginning, really.

Anyway, it happened once, so it was more important to fix it from now on.

I bowed my head lightly at Scarlett, who was sitting comfortably in our house waiting for an answer.

“Yes, how are you?”

“Ah, why are you being so firm? Are they between seniors and juniors? All you have to do is treat it like a father treats a senior.”

“I am comfortable with this. And to say that Scarlett and I are still seniors and juniors is a bit absurd.”

“Isn’t that right?! At this point, I think it would be a good idea to strengthen the relationship between seniors and juniors!”

would you like to come out like that?

It was suffocating to see him clumsily trying to hide his true feelings. We don’t even do that kind of thing.

Douglas, who had been watching quietly with his arms crossed, intervened.

“What are you trying to do? Seeing that you have come all the way here, it must not be unusual.”

“I’m talking to Irvin-senpai right now, so I don’t want you to interfere, Dad.”

“Look at what I’m talking about. Start by explaining why you are here.”

“Young people are trying to talk to each other, so they tell you to indulge yourself.”

At Scarlett’s bold words, Douglas eventually grabbed his back.

Rize shouldn’t learn from watching things like that.

She was worried, but Rize was already sitting on her lap as if she had said goodbye to Scarlett once. It was fortunate that they seemed to be on good terms, but I thought I would be hurt if I really became like Scarlett.

That’s why I wanted to avoid it more.

To be honest, I didn’t want to be involved at all if I could, but I knew better than anyone else that I couldn’t when Scarlett had already come home.

In the end, it seemed that a solution would come out only when I heard what was going on.

“Then let’s listen.”

“Is it real?! right now… … !”

“Before that, I eat rice first. I have no intention of starving my daughter.”

“Um, okay. Rice is important.”

Seeing Scarlett quickly agreeing, she went straight to the kitchen without further comment.

As I looked at the empty kitchen, Irina, who had followed me, lightly bowed her head.

“sorry. Since I met Mr. Scarlett right away, I couldn’t prepare anything.”

“It’s okay to slow down a little. By the way, were you waiting here?”

“Yes, he waited on the roof and then came down.”

“Anyway, with the ability to act… … .”

I clicked my tongue briefly and started preparing the meal.

I reduced the menu I was originally going to do, increased the amount since one more person was added, and with Irina’s help, I moved as quickly as possible to complete the dinner.

It was made in a hurry, but I was confident that Rize had to eat it.

Maybe that’s why it was able to make even the tongue of one diner admire.

“wow! Is this a sword made by you? Absolutely delicious! You were a cook, not a mercenary?”

“Right, right? My dad is good at cooking! That’s great!”

Scarlett’s words of praise made a fuss, and Rize shrugged and chattered as if she had been praised.

Scarlett also looked at Rize and me alternately, then nodded as if she understood, then dipped a piece of chicken and held it out to Rize.

“Now, would you like to try this?”

“thank you! Oh~.”

I don’t know why I’m frying sesame salt like that with someone else’s daughter.

But for a while, Scarlett, like her reckless personality, immediately brushed off her true feelings without saying a word.

“Lizee, can you talk your dad into helping you?”

“Um, why? Are you having a hard time?”

“No, who is hard? No, not too much… … little?”

“My dad, I like to help people. Hee hee, if I ask for help, he will be very helpful.”

Having said that, I really couldn’t refuse.

Scarlett also twitched her lips as if her conscience was pricked when Rize showed her kindness more pure than she thought.

Then, with an apologetic expression, he let out a slightly subdued voice.

“Then what will my sister do? Rize said she would do a favor for you, so unnie should also do a favor for Rize.”

“Well, then there you are!”

Rize answered right away, as if there was something she really wanted, and her eyes twinkled.

“Can you show me how your sister wields a sword?”

“I? Didn’t you tell my dad that you were learning?”

“Master said that there is bound to be a difference in how men and women use knives. So I tried to learn because my sister said she was the strongest female swordsman in the world.”

At that, Scarlett naturally looked at Douglas, and Douglas was quietly concentrating on his meal as if it were someone else’s business.

Eventually, Scarlett turned her gaze back to Rize and smiled softly.

“Ok, thanks. Then I promise I’ll show you as soon as I’m done.”

“Hee hee, yes! promise!”

In the end, the two of them made a promise by walking up to their fingers.

After this job, I really tried to avoid it, but I have no choice but to get entangled once more.

No, I’d rather just run away.

As soon as I finished eating with such a sinister plan, Scarlett pulled my sleeve as I tried to clean up.

“What are you doing? It is a fast sword.”

“No, I have to clean up first… … .”

“It’s less of a hassle to go before Dad comes back! Don’t you hate being harassed by your father, too?”

There was nothing to refute.

In the end, I had to quickly get out of the house while Douglas went to the bathroom without even saying goodbye to Rize properly.

That’s how I ended up walking down the street side by side with Scarlett.

I thought it might be strange, so I slowed down my steps a little, but Scarlett, who noticed it surprisingly quickly, pulled her body close to her side.

“Don’t even think about running away. I heard what you were talking about with Rize, but it’s not like that.”

“I didn’t think of that, so get off a bit. If you gossip about it, you don’t like each other.”

At first, he didn’t seem to understand what I meant, but soon his cheeks turned red and he distanced himself a little.

I just gave the reason as I thought, but I was glad it worked well.

The place we arrived at was a bar.

There are several small rooms attached to each other, so it was a good place to have a quiet conversation.

As soon as I finished ordering, I got to the point.

“What help do you want from me?”

“Previously.”

Unlucky, Scarlett stared into my eyes, and I slightly averted my gaze.

As if she didn’t like it, she frowned and raised a gruff voice.

“Why are you building such a wall against me?”
