Last time, Araceli was freed of her millennium imprisonment.
A few days have pass. Araceli is staying with Ally's family. Ally, Lila, Rina and Yumi came by with Rina's children to check on their mother. Shiro went by to see how Araceli is doing.
Hey Shiro, who is this girl? She looks like Ally? Leilani asked. Believe it or not, she's Celine's mother. Shiro replied. Wait my great grandmother's mother? Leilani replied. Yeah and no one would think about coming here. Shiro replied. More like being bold, dad. Yumi replied. I mean after all, they wouldn't dare touch this house. Yumi replied. Hello Shiro, it's been a long since I've seen you. You were a teenager when I last saw you. Araceli replied. Did you say teenager? Leilani asked. Yes, did you not disclose your true age? Araceli asked. Look at the time. Shiro replied. That was slick of you. Rina replied. Tell her your age or I'll tell it. She deserves to know. Knowing you, you've been hiding it from her and your children. Araceli replied. Your a pain. Shiro replied. Speak for yourself. Araceli replied. In human years I'm a 54 year old man. I'm the child of a forced immoral priestess who is a captive of a demon king. I am a little over three millennia old. This house was given to me as one of my many inheritances. I have no attachments to this property. So I gave it to you so those two and if you ever have future children can live here with no issues. That white card I gave you a long time ago is the inheritance money that is attached to this house. Shiro replied. Wait are you telling me you gave me a piece of your inheritance? Leilani asked. Remember, we told you. Dad gave you this house because he cares about your well-being. Yumi replied. Shiro is sweet. He has hard time conveying his emotions. Leilani replied. His main home in Avaritia. Rina replied. I never seen your house. Leilani replied. Of course I did. You would never leave. Shiro replied. That's rude. Leilani replied. Dad lives in a mansion with a maid. Rina replied. You have a maid? Im jealous now. Leilani asked. When you were pregnant I asked you would you like a maid. You said, "That would be nice but I rather take care of the girls by myself." Shiro replied. Leilani sighs. Shiro chuckled. He's kind soul. Araceli replied. Shiro, your old as hell. Your immortality keeps you looking young? Leilani asked. Shiro sighs. Not really, I just watch what I eat and keep myself in shape. If not my age will start to show. Shiro replied. Your age will show. Yumi replied. Yes, I don't want to look like your grandfather who is fat and old. He let himself go. Looking like that would freak you all out. Leilani would force me to loose weight. Shiro replied. Damn right. I would rather you be exhausted with a five o'clock shadow than seeing weight gain. Leilani replied. I brought breakfast over. Shiro replied. Leilani looked at Shiro. Dad how many restaurant coupon have you used this month? Yumi asked. I usually use them on myself not really other people. Ten left this month. Shiro replied. Dad, use those coupons on people before they expire. Yumi replied. You sound like your mother. Shiro replied. Ally came downstairs and looked at Shiro. You did this not just the kindness of your heart but for our mother sake. Ally replied. You could say that. Shiro replied. He smiled. Good morning, General Yukimoto. Lila replied. Good morning, Lila. You don't have to call me General outside of work. You can just me Shiro. I got to go in. Shiro replied. He left. Shiro has many regrets in life. He loved another human once before. He had another batch twin girls. The three were lying dead before him. Araceli replied. Poor dad. Rina thought. He got vengeance and killed those who took his family from him. His ex-wife's family cursed him. Araceli replied.
I remember Lady Sarah would the goddesses a story of a goddess who loved an immortal man. He helped her escape and they created a life together in the outside world. Bringing into this world twin goddess. The human population of where they live found out about their relationship and killed the goddess and their children. The towns patron goddess cursed him to live in a constant cycle of misfortune. Lila replied. He is supposed to fall in with another human/goddess woman and have twin girls. The wife or in your case girlfriend at the time was prophesied to have twin girls. The relationship is supposed to lead into a marriage. Leilani thought back. "We have kids together! Why won't you marry me!" Leilani yelled. With a calm voice, he looked at her. I have my reasons. You deserve a man who will make you happy. That man isn't me, Leilani. Shiro replied. Leilani cried. He kissed her forehead.
Soon after, he left and never returned.
So that's why dad left. He wanted to break that cycle. Yumi replied. Yes he did. Though in return he had to live with his decisions. Araceli replied. Dad is regretting his decision everyday. He rather our mom live to see another day. Yumi thought. So that's why he is so adamant on being protective of me and my children. Leilani replied. Chris walks out his office. He had good intentions after all. I always thought he was a know it all asshole who thought he was better than me and others. Chris replied. I told you before my father may come off as an asshole but he cares about our mom, Ally and the two of us. All he desires is for all of us to live. That's why he was adamant on getting Alice and I out of the Goddess Territory? Lila asked. Yes, the Goddess are in kahoots with that Holy organization. Knowing Sarah, she probably wants vengeance towards my descendants. In her eyes, my progressive views angered her. Araceli replied. Wait what did you do to her? She had it in for me and Lila. Ally replied. Dad left his wallet. Rina replied. He probably just realized he left. Yumi replied. Shiro rushed back to Leilani's house. He knocked on the door. Ally opened it. Hey could you give me my wallet? Shiro asked. Tempus appeared sitting down eating cake. Hello Shiro, it's nice to see you. Tempus replied. You tampered with my time and made me leave my wallet here. Shiro replied. Whatever do you mean? Also don't you have off today? Tempus asked. Shiro sighs. What do you want from me? Shiro replied. Whatever do you mean? Tempus asked. I'll eat your cake. Shiro replied. Tempus turned her head and glared at Shiro. Those two glared at each other. Dad, Lady Tempus could murder you. Rina replied. I know. I just don't care. She wants information out of me. Shiro replied. Information? Leilani asked. Yes, he was originally what you call my watch dog. Tempus replied. Dad is this true? Yumi asked. No comment. If it's about the whereabouts of Lady Araceli's Imperial Treasure. I can't tell you. That's classified information, I'll be detained and sent to Tartarus. I'll be forbidden to make or have any contact with my daughters, my grandchildren, great grandchildren and many generations.Shiro replied. Why Tartarus? Rina asked. My magical power is the reason why. Shiro replied. You looked stress. I know you didn't eat breakfast. Eat and drink this coffee. Leilani replied. Shiro looked at Leilani with a black stare. I can't refuse can I? Shiro asked. Absolutely. Leilani replied. Shiro's stomach growled and he at the food and coffee. Shiro grabbed it and drank it. He then started eating the breakfast bowl. You haven't been eating properly. Leilani replied. Stop calling me out. Shiro replied. I hear grandpa! Noelle and Mika yelled. Is that Noelle and Mika? Shiro asked. Yup. Leilani replied. Shiro swallowed some of his coffee and chugged down his breakfast bowl. Why did he eat his food so fast. Araceli asked. Our kids have a tendency of ambushing him. I think it stems from us giving him PTSD from jumping on him as children. Rina replied. Yes, you would sneak up on him and he became vigilant. Leilani replied. You terrorized your poor father. Ally replied. At least someone has some form empathy for me. Shiro replied. Noelle and Mika ran. Don't run the kitchen. Leilani replied. Listen to your grandmother. Shiro replied. They walked over to Shiro. Grandpa you came for a visit? Mika asked. You say that. Shiro replied. Shiro, you are grandfather? Araceli asked. Yeah I have four grandchildren. Two boys and two girl. These two are Rina's children. Shiro replied. I'm Rina his oldest and these are my children, Mika and Noelle. Rina replied. Hello. Mika and Noelle replied. They are so adorable but they have blonde hair not white? Araceli asked. They have blonde hair like my mother and have my complexion and eye color. Rina replied. My kids are out with their dad. Yumi replied. What do your kids look like? My kids have black hair and heterochromia. The right is teal like their father. The left is my eye color. They same complexion as well. Yumi replied. Aunt Ally, you came home? Noelle asked. Two Aunt Ally's. Mika replied. This our cousin, Lila. She's family. Rina replied. I came by so we could introduce you someone. Ally replied. This is Araceli Caelus. She's grandma Celine's mother. Rina replied. You look so young like Grandma Celine. How can that be? Noelle replied. We have good genes. Araceli replied. I never thought I would meet you. Then again grandma did say, "If you ever meet a woman name Araceli show great respect to her. She is wise and powerful." Leilani replied. That maybe true but looking at the current era. I see peace has finally come. Araceli replied. For some not all. Shiro replied. They are adorable. How old are they? Araceli replied. What do say? Shiro asked. Thank you. Mika and Noelle replied. How old are you? Leilani asked. Four! Mika and Noelle replied. Good. Rina replied. Mika and Noelle, dont ask him for his muffins. Rina replied. She sighed. Why are you sighing? Araceli asked. They always do this. Rina replied. Believe or not he never met his parents until he was an adult. He was raised in seclusion majority of his life. Araceli replied. Shiro is what she's saying true? Leilani asked. Yes, my mother is a human goddess who is the lone survivor of the fallen nation of Ithaca. My father bought revived her with his blood. Make my mother immortal against her will. I grew up seclusion. Your grandfather despises the fact I have humanoid features and no demonic features. But I do possess his sword and ice magic. Shiro replied. Dad, didn't the seclusion make you feel lonely? Yumi asked. No. It protected me from your grandfather's family ritual. I will say, he has a soft spot for some children. Shiro replied. Knowing him, he's going to make a surprise visit to see Lady Araceli. Tempus replied. Shiro sighs. Hey kids go your mommy ok. Shiro replied. Mika and Noelle walked over to Rina. Why grandpa? Noelle asked. Shiro expression and demeanor changed. Shiro's in a chilling voice. Attack my grandchildren and I'll bisect you. Grandpa is angry. Mika replied. Is that how you speak to your father? Keir asked. Meet your grandfather, Keir the demon king of Ira. Mika. Noelle. This is your great grandfather, Mika and Noelle. Shiro replied. So you fell in love with another human/goddess hybrid.These three actually lived. Keir replied. Why are you truly here? It's not to have an audience with Lady Araceli. Shiro replied. I heard that Araceli was freed from her imprisonment. That's a problem. Keir replied. Shiro chuckled. So "they" called you to kill me? All in the name of their God correct? Shiro asked. Sarcastic like your mother. Keir asked. Noelle walks over to Keir. Why are you being mean to grandpa? He is always nice. Noelle asked. Now Grandpa's mad. Mika replied. Noelle and Mika frowned. Get over here you two. Rina replied. They crossed their arms and pouted. Rina sighed. Keir chuckled.
