While a meeting was being held at the Adventurers' Guild, Reda was in the room of the inn they were renting, with his beloved daughter Luna and Mina.
Initially, Reda had been called to the meeting, but he had declined, saying he wanted to talk to his daughters.
At that time, he had informed the guild that he would leave the clinic to their management.
"Daddy, what's the talk about?"
"What's wrong, Dad? Is something bothering you?"
Perhaps because of his serious expression, both daughters looked at him with concern.
"Sorry, sorry, it's not that. To be honest, there's something I need to tell you two."
"Come on, if it's a proposal, you should do it when we're alone to set the mood, right?"
"It's not that, Luna always jumps to conclusions. This time, I'm being serious. Got it?"
"I'm always serious, you know."
"Alright, alright. Let me continue. The organization that held you captive is gone."
"Huh?"
"Huh? Wait, Dad? What do you mean? And how do you know about this!?"
Reda's sudden words left Mina stunned, and Luna quickly pressed for answers.
After telling them to calm down, he continued.
"To be honest, I've been using connections to investigate for a while. We're living peacefully now, but I was always worried about what would happen if the organization came back for you. So, I had someone look into it."
"You mean the organization is gone?"
"Yes."
"How?"
"It seems to have been destroyed by a hero."
"Huh? The hero, that hero?"
"Yes, that hero."
--- Hero. A courageous one. A brave one.
The strongest weapon, chosen by the holy sword.
For years, the position was vacant, but about three years ago, a young girl was chosen as the hero.
Since then, the hero has been fighting continuously.
"Wait, wait! I don't understand why the hero needed to destroy that organization. Sure, it was an assassination organization, so there was no reason to protect it, and it feels good to see it gone, but why did the hero get involved?"
"I don't really understand either."
"But?"
"According to the hero, it was for the enforcement of justice."
"Right, I don't get it."
"Me neither. But the one thing I can say is that there's nothing left to threaten Luna and Mina. We can be together forever now."
The moment Reda told his daughters this, Luna jumped into his arms.
Then Mina, pouting,
"That's not fair! I want to be hugged too!"
She plopped onto Reda's back.
"We'll always be together with Dad and Onee-chan, right?"
"Yes, always together."
"Yay!"
Mina, with her pure joy, rubbed her cheek against him.
Holding her with one arm, he tightened his grip, determined never to let go.
"…Daddy, when you say you want to be together forever, it makes my lower abdomen tingle."
"Stop it."
"Hehe, hehehe, he… Oh, it's so good, ah, ah, it's so good."
At first, Luna was teasing, but soon she started crying.
Perhaps she had been more worried about the organization than even Reda.
But now, she was free.
The organization that had tormented Luna no longer existed.
"I always thought the organization would come after us."
"Uh-huh."
"I was afraid I would cause trouble for you, Dad, and that Mina would be in danger. I was always so worried!"
"It's okay, I understand."
Luna is a kind girl.
She had always wished for the safety of her family.
Now, her wish had come true.
It's no wonder she couldn't control her emotions and cried.
"Even though everyone in this town is so nice, I was always afraid I would cause them trouble."
"It's okay, Luna and Mina and I will always be together."
"We'll always be together, Onee-chan."
"No matter what happens, we are a family. Nothing can separate us. Right?"
"Yes! Thank you, Dad."
"I love you, Dad!"
The girl who had been trembling under a smile was, on this day, set free.
Thus, the three of them deepened their family bond even further.
