It's so hard being a hero!

"drive."

The next moment, the two unicorns took off running across the grass.

The wind whistled past her ears, making Sofia's short silver hair a mess, but her smile grew wider and wider.

That feeling was strange.

He was riding on his former life's mount, being carried by his daughter as they galloped across the grassland.

What kind of magical plot is this?

"Hahaha, little girl, are you happy or not?" Leila shouted from behind, laughing loudly.

"Ok!"

Sophia grabbed the mane on Twilight's back and nodded happily.

She hadn't laughed like that in a very, very long time.

Since her rebirth, she has been pretending, pretending to be a child, pretending to be innocent, and pretending to know nothing.

She hid herself inside the shell of a six-year-old girl.

But at this moment, she didn't want to pretend anymore.

All she wanted to do was laugh, run, and frolic on this grass.

"It has wings, so it should be able to fly, right?" Sophia asked, knowing the answer already.

"Of course, it's a unicorn."

Leila spurred her horse, and Dawn suddenly accelerated, then flapped its wings and took flight.

Twilight followed closely behind, taking Sofia into the sky.

"Old friend, I know you recognize me. Please don't reveal my identity. I'm in a very awkward situation right now and I don't know how to reunite with Frey and her daughter."

Sofia nestled against Twilight's back and whispered to it.

Upon hearing this, Twilight was so excited that she immediately let out a high-pitched screech.

The dawn beside them also began to shriek.

"Lady Frey, look, Twilight seems to be very happy today."

Millie and Della, standing at the front door of the living room, exclaimed in surprise.

Frey just watched from afar without saying a word, her expression unreadable, neither happy nor angry.

"I'll be right back after a short while."

As soon as she finished speaking, Frey tore open space again and left, disappearing to an unknown location.

Sofia and Leila soared and circled in the air several times.

The entire capital city came into view, and the place really hadn't changed much from what it had been a decade or so ago.

"Brothers, I, Hu Hansan, am back."

Sophia said excitedly.

She knew that she would soon see her comrades from her past life.

The two wandered around for a while, until dusk, before finally returning to the Duke's mansion.

As soon as Lyra landed, she dismounted and prepared to lift Sophia off Twilight's back.

But before Lyra could make a move, Sophia's body glowed with a blue light, and she was lifted by a magical force, floating down lightly.

"Oh, no wonder my mom wanted to take you as her student. You've mastered the power of wind at such a young age."

Leila was a little surprised.

“Yes, I have mastered all four basic magic systems.” Sophia nodded.

Leila reached out and ruffled Sophia's hair.

"Really? That's amazing, even better than when I was a kid."

Sofia did not dodge.

It wasn't because she couldn't avoid it, but because she didn't want to.

It's just that the feeling of having your own daughter ruffle your hair is quite peculiar.

"Let's go back and get something to eat, I'm hungry."

Leila took Sofia's hand and walked back.

The two returned to the living room, chatting and laughing. Frey was already back; they had no idea where she had been.

"came back?"

Frey raised her eyelids slightly.

"Mom, this little girl is so interesting."

Leila plopped down on the sofa and pulled Sophia to sit down next to her.

"What's so interesting about this?" Frey put down her teacup.

"She wasn't afraid at all when she rode Twilight, and she even told me to run faster. She was screaming 'ah ah' as ​​she ran. She was crazy."

Leila gestured wildly, dancing with joy.

Sophia blushed.

"I didn't call out."

“She screamed, she screamed really loudly,” Leila exposed her without any mercy.

"No."

"Have."

Frey watched the two bicker, her lips twitching a few times, but it was definitely not a smile; rather, it was a more complex emotion.

Chapter 9 An Awkward Night Bathing with My Wife

Upon returning to the Duke's mansion, Sophia asked Frey to escort her home.

After all, it was already late, and his parents back in Kyle City must be worried.

“Teacher, it’s getting late, please take me home,” Sophia said to Frey.

However, Frey shook her head.

"You don't need to go back. You can stay at the Duke's mansion tonight."

Sophia was taken aback.

"what?"

“I just went to Kyle City and spoke with your parents,” Frey explained.

Sophia opened her mouth as if to say something, but swallowed the words back.

To be honest, she's also very conflicted right now.

The longer you stay here, the more flaws you'll uncover.

But she also wanted to spend some time with Frey and Lyrado.

"What? You don't want to?"

Frey noticed that she was in a daze and asked a question.

"No no."

Sophia quickly shook her head.

"Then it's settled."

After saying that, Frey turned around and called out towards the restaurant.

"Millie, prepare dinner."

"Yes, Lady Frey."

Millie responded and quickly walked towards the kitchen.

Dinner was ready soon.

The long dining table was laden with exquisite dishes.

"sit down."

Frey took her seat in the main seat.

Leila, on the other hand, sat casually on the left and started stuffing bread into her mouth.

"Mom, why is it so lavish today?"

Leila, with bread in her mouth, asked indistinctly.

"With guests here, the meal should naturally be more lavish," Frey said casually.

"guest?"

Leila glanced at Sophia and grinned.

"She's not just a guest, she'll be my sister from now on."

Upon hearing this, Sophia thought to herself, "I'm your dad."

But she certainly couldn't say it now, so she just silently lowered her head and ate.

But to be honest, she didn't feel very comfortable during the meal.

The family was reunited, but she couldn't reveal her true identity.

Sophia glanced at Frey furtively.

She noticed that Frey was much more relaxed than she had been when they first met six months ago.

Her lips curled up slightly, carrying a faint smile.
