Chapter 99: Adventure Together

"Then come with me to explore the many places beyond the boundaries of this continent. Apart from protected places, you are rarely there near me to protect me directly. If you are too worried, then be there by your daughter's side." Sylvia smiled weakly.

Since Sylvia was just born until her father ascended the throne to become the Emperor who ruled the Devil Continent, she rarely got enough attention. Her father always went somewhere and came home covered in wounds and smelled of blood.

Even though Dylan always cleaned up all the remains of the battle and everything he did to gain the power of the Emperor class fast enough. He didn't know that his daughter had sharp senses. It was easy for her to notice it after repeated repetitions.

Before Dylan became the Emperor of the Devil Continent, Sylvia was always under protection in a particular area within a limited scope. Such as a house with a garden with multiple layers of guards. She was also forbidden to go outside.

By the time he ascended the throne, things were not very good for Sylvia. Apart from certain castles or places, Sylvia was only allowed to leave with the guard Dylan deemed adequate. Hundreds of years passed, and she began to feel suffocated by her father's strict restraint.

She was getting bored with that same place she visited, or maybe she had visited too many places on Devil Continent. Sylvia could only roam the small world under her father's watchful eye without much room to move, and it was considered freedom from him.

Dylan just needed to be there and replace heavy guard and anything to accompany his daughter, but he didn't do it. Currently, Sylvia just asked him to go on an adventure together and spend their time together, away from an Emperor's busyness.

"..."

Dylan couldn't answer right away and thought it over what he was trying to achieve and what he had done to his daughter. Maybe if that was true, and what he had been doing all this time was always applied, then his daughter would really be gone forever from his life.

Sylvia smiled, somewhat pleased that her father was reconsidering it.

"Try to answer me. What are you trying to find, father? You tell me about my mother, your grudge, the horror of mankind, and your goals... After hundreds of years of struggling and becoming a Devil Emperor, you have really neglected your daughter for that long..." Sylvia flew behind her father, then continued her persuasive words.

"If what you are looking for right now is the culprit, then try to find out to investigate personally and adventure. You can delegate all the duties of an Emperor of the continent to your four subordinates, right?"

It really sounded like a devil's whisper, right in Dylan's ear when he heard the persuasion of his daughter. Well, she was indeed a devil.

"I can't do it. The Emperor has responsibilities and rules that apply to him." Dylan didn't get swayed easily.

Although it was true, He hadn't really searched thoroughly, much less was there personally to investigate every single place. All he did was send spies and informers to various places in the Human Continent.

"Hm? Since when have you followed the rules? Didn't you tell me just now that you are the Devil Emperor and you make the rules? You are devoting yourself to what is really not just your responsibility. You can change the rules and create new ones, father. Who can raise a protest because your strength is absolute here?" Sylvia grinned as she threw back what her father had said a while ago.

"..." Dylan pondered again because he was attacked by his own words, but he did consider his daughter's wishes and words.

Why did he become Emperor? Didn't he achieve that, to possess tremendous power to kill the culprit who killed his wife?

Since when did he have to dedicate himself and work for everyone under him? Wouldn't it be better to get them all to work and focus on his original goals? Or relax with all that he was going to do?

He just wanted to create a safe environment and then made his daughter happy, but wasn't this outcome the exact opposite? His daughter was lonely and suffering because of him. Why didn't he protect her directly while searching for the truth in the world? He could judge everything with his own hands.

"All right, I'll go with you. Wait here for a moment while I take care of all the troublesome business." Dylan folded his arms after making a decision.

"Yay! I love you, father! You will not regret it because I am a lucky star. The first time I fled outside this continent, I became friends with a Goddess. What will await us later, mmm?" Sylvia hugged her father from behind and rubbed her cheek against his cheek.

Dylan just smiled at it. His daughter was lucky. After a moment passed, he opened his mouth with the expression that returned to his usual self again, a bit cold and indifferent.

"Now, get off of me. I have some matters to prepare before we go. Wait here for a moment."

Sylvia immediately freed her father, then he became a black mist and disappeared from there. She didn't think her incitement would really make her father change his mind quickly. Anyway, she swiftly got ready with everything she wanted to bring, the preparation for her adventure.

Some time passed so quickly, Dylan had sent all the tasks to his subordinates. He no longer wanted to take care of everything by himself because he had many subordinates to assign and not assign him.

He returned to Sylvia's room and saw a black-haired girl sitting on the bench near the dressing table. His daughter was looking in the mirror while humming.

"Hum~ Hum~ Father, you're back. How do I look?" Sylvia immediately stood up, then turned around once and flicked her skirt. She was already wearing a black and white adventurer's outfit like a princess knight from a book she had read.

"Well, you look very different with different hair and eye colors. Apart from the costume you wear, the rest is the same. Are you going to go like that?" Dylan frowned.

"Of course, we need a new identity. It's not like a lousy agent in the Human Continent who is mostly a humanity traitor or devil in human form. White hair and red eyes have become a devil icon. Look at my long black hair and beautiful black eyes that are like a charming night. You also need to resemble me, father."

Sylvia returned to the dresser while checking her face. She could only change her hair color and eye color with magic, but the rest was still the same.

Dylan was silent, but the color of his hair and eyes also turned dark black. He also changed his robe into a dark black combat outfit very quickly. His face also seemed to change slightly with the help of Dark Magic.

Sylvia looked back to tell her father to disguise himself because he was silent for too long. However, she was surprised by the man dressed all in black standing there. "What!? Who are you! Where is my father!"

"I am your father, don't you recognize my energy aura?" Dylan grinned because his daughter didn't recognize him easily.

"Oh, right. You sure are fast, father... Phew..." Sylvia let out a sigh of relief when she saw her father's familiar reddish-black aura.

"But there, you shouldn't use your strength too much, father. Especially on a large scale and large magic. We will be caught by the Emperors of the Human Continent."

"Yeah, I know. Where are we going as a starting place? Almost all the Human Continent regions have been investigated, especially in the Western Region, which has been thoroughly investigated." Dylan asked lightly.

"What about the Avrora Forest? The forest on regional borders stretches vastly in the Western, Southern, and Holy Central Regions. We start from the southwest, then explore as adventurers and will go in a counter-clockwise direction." Sylvia put her finger on her chin as she thought.

"Well, you didn't choose that forest just because you met the goddess who you called your friend, right?" Dylan looked at his daughter right in the eye, and Sylvia could only touch her fingers together. It couldn't be more than real.

"Can we?" She looked at her father with a pleading face.

"Very well. Let's go. We will register as adventurers in one of the Southern Region cities then move in a counter-clockwise direction. Are you happy?" Dylan relented a little, anything for his daughter.

"Happy! Come on, let's go! All preparations are ready. We'll slip into the night!" Sylvia immediately jumped up cheerfully.

Then, the two of them immediately flew away towards the forest, where Sylvia met her Goddess friend. Maybe Sylvia was indeed a lucky star, but no one knew what awaited them.

Dylan increased his and his daughter's flight speed with the help of his acceleration magic. No one expected that they would meet the same Goddess but in a different form and identity. Not Dylan and not Sylvia, not even the Goddess herself.
