[Episode 151]
“Dad, aunts and uncles have all gone back?”
“Most returned to their families. The only ones left here are Krono Etam and Hyel Etam.”
I nodded my head at Dad’s words. Experimental subjects… No, that was enough to open a new business.
“Is it because of the business?”
“yes.”
“But I don’t know what good it is to dye a person’s hair. It’s amazing, but…”
“It’s not just people. Cloth can be dyed more easily and quickly, and with a little more processing, you can even change the color of food!”
It seems useless now, but it will probably soon become a very fashionable business.
Isn’t that the case, especially in this era, self-PR is important, and it’s important to stand out?
Not only that, but people were all very interested in beauty.
I could tell by looking at her pursuit of slightly more beautiful clothes and looking for much prettier cosmetics or lipsticks.
But can you change the color of your hair? There was no reason this wouldn’t be groundbreaking.
Usually, in order to dye your hair, you had to buy expensive magic chemicals or take out or hide your hair color with strong drugs that are not good for your body.
However, when using strong drugs, side effects such as hives on the head and a lot of dead skin cells were severe.
But this dye was different.
In the original world, [Ip. Yang. Gak] was learned while driving straight from the beginning, but there was a special stone in this world.
By grinding the stone, mixing it with mud, and applying heat, various colors could be created according to the ratio and temperature.
Then, spread it on your hair and after about an hour, the dye with some degree of durability is completed.
Now, if Callan develops something that can only separate colors and becomes edible, it could be used as food coloring.
‘Well, it’s natural even now, but…’
Apart from the price, I’ve heard that the amount is small and it’s not easy to find.
It will be easier to dye the fabric, and you might be able to pursue a little more variety of colors than now.
In addition, now, in order to dye the color of the raw material for cloth, a bleaching process to make the color of the cloth white is unconditionally necessary, but this is much simpler if you dye it white once.
It is also possible to create a pattern by dyeing another color on top of the dye, and various color combinations are possible.
“If you are, then so be it.”
Dad, who was staring at what I was thinking, said with a smile.
“Strictly speaking, haven’t you seen more of the world and a wider world than me?”
“Dad…”
“So my field of view and yours must be different. But Erin.”
Dad seemed to hesitate for a moment, then cautiously called me.
“You have a great idea and I am well aware that all of this is not your fault. However, public opinion is not good, so running a business under your name is…”
My dad took turns talking as much as he could and carefully chose the words to make me understand.
But after talking to my dad for a few days, including today, and talking to Lucillion and Enosh, and Lillian and Richard, it was fine.
Laurent still cared for me and Terem is fine.
Worrying and worrying, the letter sent to the three people at the academy also came safely back.
That was enough.
Because I never wanted everyone in the world to love me.
“are you okay.”
I said holding my father’s hand tightly.
“The business will start with someone unknown.”
“…Eirin, if that happens.”
“It’s not that I won’t reveal it for the rest of my life. Everyone is afraid because I am a dragon.”
I shrugged lightly.
In fact, I would have been very scared if someone around me was a dragon.
Because the dragon in my head is very angry, has terrifying abilities, and has a very arbitrary personality, and is said to be a strong being comparable to a god.
Even now, the truth is…
“I can kill as many people I hate as I want, and I can rid the world of people I don’t like.”
The moment I opened my eyes, I realized that I had that much power.
Every breath I exhaled was full of strength, and the sense that anything would come true if I just thought about it became clearer.
I’ve never tried it properly, but maybe it’s not just a dream for me to go back to my big body and wipe out a country.
“But if that happens…”
Something seemed to break.
You won’t be able to live a normal life forever.
“Because I’m sure I won’t be able to live like I used to.”
“….”
Dad looked at me with his mouth shut quietly instead of answering me like yes.
“I respect you.”
“Yeah, but no one will respect me except my dad.”
“…I guess so.”
Dad looked at me with my determined eyes, and then he meekly returned an affirmative answer.
“So I will make a place for myself. Fortunately, I have a lot of great ideas.”
Dad’s lips softened.
“Once I have made this business extremely successful and prosperous, I will let people know that I am the one who started this business.”
“…okay?”
“Yes, then everyone will think I’m great and they’ll see me as someone they need.”
I said with a smile.
Even so, someday I will be an unusual being.
By the time the people around you end their lives one by one…
“I do a lot of charity work, I work hard to help people with the money I earn, and, of course, me and my dad should live with goodwill.”
Dad, who listened to me, leaned over slightly and lightly bumped my forehead against his own.
He lightly rubbed his forehead against his father.
“Don’t forget.”
“What?”
“No matter how old you become, no matter what you do wrong, even if you are the only one left in the world…”
Dad’s golden eyes existed in front of his eyes. It felt like I was somehow sucked into that gold.
As if looking into my very old worries, my father pursed his lips as he looked straight at me as if he was groping for a very distant future.
“You are my daughter, Eirin.”
“…!”
My eyes widened at the feeling that it sounded different even though it seemed like I had always heard it.
“You always say May you always be happy, be happier than anyone else, grow up healthier than anyone else.”
Dad smiled and rolled his eyes.
“I am always hoping. Even if it means taking away someone’s happiness.”
These may be words to me now, or maybe words left to me who may be alone in the very distant future.
“Yes, I will.”
I also laughed at him.
“You are the correct answer.”
Dad slowly lifted his forehead and straightened his bent back.
“yes? What?”
“There are some things that cannot be solved just by giving them fear.”
“…yes.”
“It’s a very good attitude for a head of household.”
Dad patted me on the head.
“Good job.”
and my dad complimented me
For some reason, I smiled wide at the feeling of my heart beating. Dad laughed.
“I’ll do my best!”
“Yeah, it wouldn’t be bad to start another business if possible.”
“A business?”
“Yes, I mean it wouldn’t be a bad idea to appeal to your needs a little more by promoting two different types of business together rather than one business.”
“Aha… I’ll think about it!”
“Okay then I have something to go out soon so let’s go.”
“Your father!”
I jumped up and hugged my dad tightly.
“I love you dad.”
“…Your aegyo has increased.”
“no, I do not want?”
“I wouldn’t like it. I’m thinking about how to tie your brothers to the academy a bit longer.”
Daddy said mischievously.
“If I remember anything more about that girl from my childhood, I’ll tell you.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Dad turned and strode down the hallway.
‘I said that, but…’
I sighed briefly and tilted my head.
“I think I know where he handed me over to my fake dad.”
I murmured softly.
‘I’ll have to go tonight.’
I also wanted to know. Why did that person hand me over to the bitch that day?
I looked like a strong man, but why did he know I was alive?
How did
my mother have me… ?
Is there no other reason to have a dragon with a normal human body?
As I thought about it, I let out a deep sigh.
‘If you’re a creator, there are many things you don’t know.’
A really famous office might be what you use at times like this.
“Let’s go.”
After all, the night will be back soon.
