I don't know what it's like to lose both my wife and son at the same time. All I have to say is that once again, I have nothing left.

After the grief subsided, I continued my daily life: school, the Magic Association, and standing proudly on the podium, even though in reality, I was the murderer of Sarah and Griffith.

I am a scumbag, and the years between thirty-four and thirty-four won't change anything. A scumbag is still a scumbag.

……

I couldn't go home during those days. The slap mark on my face had long been healed by Teacher Luo Qixi's healing magic, but I still felt a burning pain on my face from time to time.

I covered the side of my face that had been hit, and used my other hand to grab Teacher Luo Qixi's hand.

I'm too scared to go home anymore. I don't know how to face Sarah and Griffith.

"Rudy, I'm sorry."

Ms. Luo Qixi leaned against my back, and I heard her sobbing.

"It's not your fault, Professor Loki. It's me who has let Sarah down and Griffith down too."

“But that was a mistake Rudy and I made together. I'm sorry to Rudy for not being able to help him… At least I should have spoken to Sarah myself…”

"Stop talking, Ms. Luo Qixi."

I couldn't stop crying.

"dad."

Lala pushed open the door and entered the room.

Looking at the girl in front of me who looked exactly like Luo Qixi, I felt like something was blocking my throat, and I couldn't speak.

This was the first time she called me "Dad".

"Lala, didn't you go to school?"

Luo Qixi said in a somewhat reproachful tone.

Lala gently shook her head. "I'm not in the mood."

These are words spoken by an eight-year-old child.

Luo Qixi slowly got out of bed, picked up Lala, and walked to me.

"Lala, who did you call 'Dad' just now?"

The stuff stuck in my throat slowly dissolved, and I reached out to stroke Lala in Loki's arms.

"dad."

Lala slowly stretched out her tender little hand and pointed one finger at me.

"I want a dad. Why does everyone else have one but I don't?"

"Okay, I'll be your dad, no, I'll be your dad."

Perhaps this is salvation, but I don't deserve it.

……

In this world, I lived for another thirty years. In my previous life, for thirty-four years, I lived as a scumbag who only stayed in my room playing online games and watching adult films. My family members left me one by one, and in the end, I could only die a miserable death on the roadside.

What now?

Even if a scumbag lives for thirty more years, he is still a scumbag. What does it matter if he has a wife and children? He is immersed in the happiness he never had in his previous life, which led to the death of his wife and son. Even if he had some enjoyment, he has only chosen another path to become a scumbag who has nothing.

That's how I am, just barely surviving.

……

"So, you've been having an affair with Luo Qixi for a long time, is that right?"

Sarah looked at me with teary eyes. In the past, she might have already started to bombard me with preconceived notions, and I wouldn't have been able to say anything even if I was right.

Immediately following this, there will likely be a barrage of criticism.

I'm all set to face Sarah's overwhelming offensive.

However, things are different now.

She didn't yell at me like she usually does, nor did she adopt the aggressive stance she usually does.

Now she's more like begging me, begging me not to tell those facts.

But I have to tell her.

I stared into her eyes, and the panicked look in them made me want to run away as well.

But I can't do that anymore.

Finally, I mustered up my courage and said what I needed to say to her:

"Sarah, listen to me. It's true that Professor Loki and I have that kind of relationship. Lala is also Professor Loki's child. Can you accept them?"

She paused for a long while. I thought she would do something drastic, but she didn't. She just stammered, saying each word slowly and deliberately:

"You...you don't even have children..."

"I'm sorry, it's like this."

"Why don't you just go and live with Loki? Why do you care what I do with Griffith..."

Sarah kept wiping away her tears with her sleeve. The thirty-two-year-old woman still had a charming appearance, and even her words brought back the feeling of when I was dating her.

"Because...because I...I love you..."

"Snapped!"

Before I could react, a slap landed on my face with a crisp sound.

"If that's the case... if that's the case... how many times have you said that to Luo Qixi?!"

"I……"

"Get out."

"Sarah, I..."

"Get out!"

Sarah roared.

Sarah, panting heavily, pointed towards the door.

It seems we failed.

I walked blankly toward the door, my steps growing heavier and heavier, as if someone was watching me.

My gaze drifted to the side, and out of the corner of my eye, I caught sight of a little boy in the courtyard. He had short blond hair, a face and nose as cute as Sarah's, and a beauty mark under his eye just like mine.

I turned my head and met my son's gaze for the first time in a long time.

Like Sarah, his eyes were red and swollen, filled with tears.

He heard everything Sarah and I talked about.

Do I still have the right to call myself his father?

"dad……"

He sobbed, as if saying, "Don't go, don't go."

But I can no longer stay in this house.

I turned around and left the house in a few quick steps.

"father!"

"father!"

Griffith chased after me, but I didn't look back at him.

……

borders of the Kingdom of Lanoa

……

"Dragon God" Orsteed walked along the transfer magic circle leading to the Kingdom of Asura, passing through a tall and dense forest, and finally saw the shadow of the dragon ruins ahead.

Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks. He could sense that a being with extraordinary magical power was approaching. It was not the total amount of magical power that an ordinary person possessed. It could be a Demon King or a Demon Emperor, but it was still far inferior to the Demon God Laplace.

"Dragon God" Orsteed is an existence beyond comprehension; he can sense the movements of any living being within a radius of several hundred meters.

The three-white-eyed man scanned the woods in front of him, and a white head peeked out.

He was a child of thirteen or fourteen years old, with white hair and a beauty mark at the corner of his eye. In the darkness, his eyes emitted a cold blue light, like solid ice that had never melted for thousands of years. Even just a glance from him would feel chilling.

The little boy licked the purple monster blood that remained at the corner of his mouth and silently walked toward Orsteed, each step aimless, like a walking corpse.

"I'm so hungry."

The little boy made a guttural sound in his throat like a wild beast, but it was still barely audible as human language.

Alsted was taken aback. If it were an ordinary person, even an extremely vicious person, or even someone who had lost their mind, they would all be afraid of Alsted because of the curse.

But the little boy in front of me was different. There was no fear in his eyes at all; he looked more like a wild beast that had spotted its prey.

The boy strode forward, and in his hands, he conjured a rock cannonball and a fireball, all without any trace of chanting.

"boom!"

The rock cannonballs and fireballs struck Orsteed, but due to the presence of Dragon Saint Battle Qi, they were accompanied by a burst of fire, leaving only a wisp of smoke.

"It's actually without chanting."

Alsteed was slightly surprised, but his expression remained calm.

The boy was not giving up. He used fire magic, earth magic, and wind magic to create a strangely shaped sword in his hand. The sword had no physical form, with earth magic as the hilt, fire magic as the blade, and wind magic as sword energy that swirled around it.

The boy, sword in both hands, walked toward Orstid, each step he took causing frost to form beneath his feet.

"That's really interesting magic."

"Ohstide exclaimed."

The boy swung his sword at Orsteed, using a move from the intermediate level of the Sword God style. The blade made contact with the Dragon Saint's battle aura, and wind magic, fire magic, and water magic all appeared in the strike, but they all turned into wisps of green smoke and drifted into the sky.

The attack ended, and the boy took a few steps back, standing there panting. His offensive had not caused any damage to Alsteed.

Just as Alstead was about to step toward the boy, he discovered that his feet were frozen in ice.

"Ice Domain!"

As a few light syllables escaped from the boy's mouth, a chilling frost quickly spread throughout Alsted's body.

"boom!"

But in just a moment, the ice that had been frozen on Alsted shattered and fell to the ground.

His last move was neutralized, and the boy sat on the ground, exhausted. He stared helplessly at Alsteid as Alsteid drew closer and closer, but he no longer had the strength to resist.

"So you can talk, kid. What's your name?"

The little boy swallowed hard and managed to squeeze out his name; he hadn't spoken to anyone in a long time.

“Griffiths…”

"Gurgle..."

The boy's stomach rumbled, and as if understanding something, Alstead took out water and dry food from his pocket and handed them to the boy.

The boy took the food and began to wolf it down.

"From now on, you will follow me."
