I Adopted A Villainous Dad - Chapter 2

Adopted Dad

In a general sense, adoption was the act of choosing a child to adopt and be that child’s guardian.

But!

Do you know that the definition of adoption is the act of legalizing relationships and identities, such as biological parents and children. There was no law that only parents can adopt children.

So it’s not impossible for me to adopt him!

A choice once in a lifetime.

“What the hell is going on!”

“Watch your language!”

“Huh, what the hell is this…?”

Unlike me, who was deeply satisfied, the situation was a mess. In particular, the elders protested.

I was attending an emergency convocation meeting now attended by 12 elders and the pope because of the nuclear bomb-grade incident that occurred in Daeshin.

But I was dragged when I slept.

“Hehe. “

I smiled to ease the tension, but the faces of the elders and the Pope did not even falter wiyh my cuteness.

Tch, is this not enough?

“Sorry, Yeha…..”

Dominique, the troubled elder, frowned at me.

“Choosing the guardian of a Saint Woman is a very sacred ritual.”

I know.

Historically, it was the current system that came out fairly because the church and the Senate fought each other to protect the saint.

‘But the random box is too much, you know.’

It’s a random box. But there is a probability that it will be fabricated!

After a long silence, Pope Raphael opened his mouth.

“Yeha’s family has a sacred and great duty to protect her from the world, allowing her to show and learn about the world from young adults in the future.”

The Pope and the Elder are saying one thing after all.

‘I can’t respect your choice.’

Well, I’ve already expected this backlash.

As if to say something, the pope and the 12 eldera looked at me.

I laughed hard as if I knew nothing.

“The decision to ignore the procedure is unacceptable!”

“As expected, Yeha is still not mature enough to participate in the ceremony.”

“The results are as precious as the procedures.”

“We cannot proceed the ceremony without the consent of Yeha.

“There’s a lot of anxiety about getting the procedure ready from scratch.”

With an innocent look on their faces, the elders lowered their voices to discuss the matter. I smiled and let them talk.

While I’m so peaceful!

I know why they were protesting.

‘You’re going to send me to a family where I would likely to develop all kinds of diseases within three months of adoption.’

To be honest, the house of their choice was the best place to be.

But who am I!

I am a reader who had read the story of Priscilla eating sweet potatoes under the name of “Ludia.”3

‘Never!’

I didn’t want to walk the path of promised destruction.

Never! No matter what!

“What happened today is very unusual.”

“You can’t find a precedent.”

“How do you want me to handle this?”

Unlike the confused elders, the pope looked relatively calm. I was rather more concerned about the look of Melkiade.

He intentionally smiled at Pope Raphael with his eyes, but his stiff face showed no sign of emotions.

Are you angry?

“To send our precious saint woman Yeha to the Emperor Melkiade!”8

The elders’ concerns were unyielding.

“Why on earth was Emperor Melkiade on the list?”

Melkiade Lexchai Lowsil Lehel.12

The emperor, who ruled the northern empire Lehel, has achieved unprecedented achievements in a vigorous conquest war and reunification of the northern continent at a young age.

He had a bad relationship with the Shinsung Empire, and he was the most notorious emperor. That’s why I’m especially happy.3

Another elder, who was searching through the documents, questioned why Emperor Melkiade was included in the final candidate.

“We didn’t choose the candidate. It was a request from Lehel. It’s customary to get two candidates to ensure impartiality….”

“Why did you choose such kind human….?”

There was a widespread crisis that I could never admit. I am worried about how to persuade the elders.

Because no matter what, I am a powerless child right now.

“You can’t send our precious Yeha to such person!”

Pope Raphael raised his hand as the discussion of the elders intensified. It was a signal to be quiet.

His blue eyes glanced at the elders and finally stopped at me.

“Yeha”

I smiled and nodded lightly at the pope’s call.

“Don’t you have anything to say to us?”

Thirteen pairs of eyes turned at me in unison. I smiled more brightly.

“I have!”

As I raised my hand and smiled broadly, a smile quickly spread over the elders and the Pope’s face.

A warm and kind look came to me as if he were looking at his granddaughter who’s acting cute.

“Yes, what would you like to say to Yeha?”

“In fact, I don’t know what you were doing.”

There was an air of impatience as I tilted my head to the fullest.

“Yeha will tell about an unbelievable story.”

“Please speak at ease, I will listen.”

Other elders followed the pope’s words.

“Why did you choose him?”

I’ve been waiting for this moment, while everyone’s focused on my words.

At last there was an opportunity to persuade these people.

‘How to persuade the Pope and the elders with thick bones.’

Such great powers could not have been in me who’s now six years old.

What was important in this ceremony anyway was “justification.”

“I heard a voice.”

The elders swallowed their breath.

“As soon as he entered the hall, my vision brightened and I heard a voice spoke in my head and told me ‘It’s him’.6

Actually, that didn’t happen, but I had a similar phenomenon.

About three years ago.

It was a case called “Duktong Accident.”

“Well, it’s…..”

“Is that a prophecy?”

“Oh, my God.

At the same time, the glaring elders began to pray.

“May the glory come down and the truth shine upon us. “

I prayed with them.

Merciful God, forgive me for lying because I wanted to be with my favorite.11

In fact, there he’s the only one in the world who wanted to keep my neck intact from the start.

“He’s the only dad I want. “

I don’t approve of anyone else!

No one could argue with the words thrown them.

* * * * *

It wasn’t just the Vidane Bios Holy Empire who was confused by this situation.

Melkiade, the young emperor of Lehel, who was suddenly named a father, was equally confused.

[What?! Your Majesty has become the Father of the Saintess?]

Over the wizard, a handsome figure frowned. He asked seriously.

[Will the Holy Father of the Vios be on the road to destruction now?]

“Shut up.”

Melkiade frowned at Akilo’s biting remark.

But even Melkiade couldn’t believe it.

How the hell did this happen? He didn’t come here because he wanted to be the father of a saint.4

[No, Your Majesty. Are you serious, not kidding? Are you sure? You’re not trying to make fun of me?]

“I said shut up. “

[Wow, is that a real harbinger of the world’s destruction?]

Unable to control his mouth, Akilo was slowly crossing the line, but there was a physical distance between the two, so Melkiade’s glare is not a threat.

[Your Majesty, please be honest. You didn’t threaten her, did you?]

“Anyway, clear the room, which was supposed to be in three months, in a week.

[What? You’ll be back soon?]

“Yes.”

[With saintess Yeha?]

“Yes.”

It was all the same that this situation was unbelievable.

But could he disobey?

He heard it’s been 3,000 years, and the Vios is really the end.

Akilo muttered and asked with an uneasy look.

[Your Majesty, what are you going to do?]

“What?”

[You’re not going to turn down the offer, are you?]

He did not respond.

It was a natural confirmation for Akilo, who knows His Majesty better than anyone else.

Melkiade wrinkled his eyebrows.

“Pft”

Then laughter could be heard from the other side.

As Melkiade frowned, Kalian, a guardian and the emperor’s aide, couldn’t hold back his laughter and was smiling.

“That’s what it is, Mr. Akilo. “

[·······?]

“Your Majesty is tied to the Holy Saintess”

[?!?!?!?!?]

Akilo, who opened his eyes wide with a wistful look, came running and made a fuss over the screen with a firm expression that he wanted to confirm immediately.

“That’s what happened yesterday….”

“Shut up, Kalian.”

“Yes.”

Kalian shut his mouth while he was trying to read Melkiade’s countenance. Across the screen, Akilo screamed.

[No, you don’t have to stop talking!] So what the hell happened yesterday!]

However, Akilo’s disturbance didn’t go that far either.

It was because a knock was heard in Melchide’s room.

“Your Majesty, Yeha is here.”

Kalian cut the line right away. The break time passed and the door opened. But all he could see through the door was a maid with her head down.

“…..”

At the time when I was about to ask, I saw a child who pinched her head behind her maid.

The child who found Melkiade smiled brightly.

“Daddy!”

Where did the shyness go? The child, who was in a pink dress, ran and hugged Melkiade.3

“Grandpa said I could go see you!”

The man stiffened, and only a frugal silence hovered in the room.
