A few days later, under the guidance of an elder of the Elf Clan, Arcaian's incarnation arrived at the Elf Clan's prison that was hidden in the depths of the ancient glacier. He found his great-grandfather and his father, who were in deep sleep, and unlocked their seals, releasing them.
His great-grandfather, Krakhot Pasteur, was a Legendary champion and had about half of the blood of the High Elves. Time did not leave any trace on the scholar who had taken a different path. When he woke up from his slumber, the first thing he said was, "Can I go back to the lab and finish a few experiments that I'm thinking about before we talk about anything else?"
Well, he looked like a mad scientist. Looking at his attitude, it was no wonder that only one elder pleaded for him when the orc judge wanted to imprison him.
In contrast, Arcaian's father, Tewila Pasteur, was much more humane. After he woke up, he carefully thought about what had happened and then looked at his son.
Arcaian's strength was much weaker than his grandfather's. He was only at the high level and had not even entered the legendary realm. Therefore, he could not feel Arcaian's strength. He was just surprised that his son was so young.
Could it be that … only a short time had passed?
"I can't believe that you actually saved us after only a few years!" Krakhot said. "I don't know how you did it, but you are amazing. I am proud of you!"
Arcaian burst into tears and hugged his father. The great god was now nothing more than a young boy who had been separated from his father for many years.
After the tragic reunion, Arcaian told his father in detail what had happened in the past few years.
When he heard that his ideas did not yield much results, but the research data in other aspects, Krakhot looked a little depressed. He said with regret, "Maybe there is something wrong with my ideas … I need to spend some time to read through the research data in the past few years and do a few comparison experiments … I always feel that my ideas should be correct …"
Arcaian did not know what to say about his great-grandfather, who was a research maniac. When he was born, he had not met his great-grandfather, and even his grandfather had passed away. In his impression, his great-grandfather and grandfather were both research maniacs. They spent most of their time in the lab and paid no attention to the outside world. Even when he interacted with his family, he was rather stiff — probably because he used all his wisdom on scientific research.
As for Krakhote, Tewila wasn't that interested in research. To him, the research on the Eternal Ashes was nothing more than a family tradition. Compared to research, he cared more about his son's experiences over the years.
"You've been too brief about it." After returning to the Ancient Forest, during lunch, he said, "You must have worked hard all these years. Tell me about it in detail."
"Actually, it's really not hard for me …"
Tewila patted his son's head and smiled. "You've grown up. Every child who grows up is like this. Even if the sky falls down, they'll have to rely on their own shoulders to carry it. However, although you're much stronger than me now, in my heart, you're still that weak child who always makes me worry … "
"Really, it's not hard on me!" Arcaian's face turned red. "Dad! I'm already a god. Don't always treat me like a child! "
"Okay, okay. You're not a child anymore. You're very powerful, very amazing," Tewila said with a smile, but obviously he didn't take his words seriously.
But then he said seriously, "Later, let's pay a visit to His Majesty, the Void Mask. Grandfather, he … Alas, I don't expect him to know how to be kind or say thanks. Let's go and thank him and apologize on his behalf. “
Arcaian agreed. A few hours later, he and his son arrived at the sanctuary of the God Kingdom. They came to Sui Xiong, who was still lying on the conference table, pretending to be a plate of jellyfish.
Tewila thanked Sui Xiong sincerely and apologized for his grandfather, who went straight to the lab as soon as he was released from prison. Of course, Sui Xiong didn't take this to heart. He smiled and said that in fact, he didn't contribute much. It was basically Arcaian who helped Krakhote and Tewila get out of prison.
As for the fact that Sui Xiong was worried and asked Beifeng to help him, and that he even secretly followed Krakhote and prepared to support them, Sui Xiong naturally didn't mention it.
"In fact, compared to your help in rescuing us, I'm more grateful for your care for Arcaian over the years." Tewila, who had been a little nervous, became much calmer after finding out that His Majesty the Void Mask was a very easy-going person — er, a very easy-going jellyfish — and he smiled and said, "As a father, knowing that my son has grown beyond imagination and even become a god … please forgive me for not being good with words, because words are really not enough to express my gratitude to you!"
Sui Xiong couldn't help but scratch his head and said, "Actually, it's really nothing. You're thinking too much. These years, Arcaian has helped me a lot, and the help I've given him … is nothing more than helping him build a lab, finding a few experimental assistants, explaining some ideas and experiences to him, and helping him promote his research results … These are of great benefit to my church and territory, and I'm just doing what I should do. "
Tewila smiled happily and said, "With a boss like you, it's no wonder that he can become a kind god. To be honest, before I was imprisoned, what I was most worried about was whether he would go astray with resentment … I'm not afraid of death, but I was very afraid that my death would have a negative impact on him. Fortunately, that didn't happen, and he was lucky enough to meet you. That's great! "
Sui Xiong also smiled happily. Although Tewila was a scholar, he didn't have the bookworm aura of ordinary scholars. He was easy-going and knew how to take care of other people's feelings. Chatting with him was a very pleasant thing. The two of them chatted like this for a while, and finally, Sui Xiong couldn't help but ask him if he was interested in being an administrator in the Republic of Northwest.
"Me?" Tewila was a little surprised. "I'm an elf, and a pure scholar. Is being an administrator really suitable for political work?"
"I think you are suitable," Sui Xiong said. "Administrative officials have different kinds of work. You are good at getting along with people, and you are also very strong. You are also Arcaian's father. If you are the one who is in charge, you will definitely be able to do a good job. "
Tewila hesitated and turned to look at his son.
"Dad, no matter what you decide, I will support you!" Arcaian immediately said.
Since this was the case, Tewila let go of his worries and accepted Sui Xiong's invitation.
To be honest, although he was a scholar, he actually didn't have much enthusiasm for scientific research. To him, scientific research was nothing more than inheriting the family business. Compared to being a scientist, he actually preferred to be a tavern owner … In fact, he had been a tavern owner before, and the reason why he had met Arcaian's mother was in his own tavern.
It was a pity that Arcaian's mother fell ill and died not long after giving birth to him. Otherwise, the family could have reunited, and that would have been perfect.
Sui Xiong had also curiously asked where the women of the Pasteur family had gone, and only then did he learn that the family was really unlucky, as if they had been cursed by the Goddess of Family. Krakhot Pasteur's wife didn't approve of him giving up his identity as a Druid to become an alchemist, so she divorced him. Now, no one knew where she was. Tewila's parents and one of his younger brothers had all died in a serious experiment accident. Even he himself had been seriously injured, and it was only by luck that he had survived. As for Arcaian … Ever since he had sought refuge with Sui Xiong at the age of seventeen, he had spent almost all his time in the lab and rarely left. So until now, not to mention marriage, he didn't even have a girlfriend!
Of course, as an Eternal God, he did not have any special requirements for marriage. If he needed to continue the family bloodline, he could directly create a child of his own, directly skipping the process of dating, marriage, pregnancy, and childbirth. He could even let the child grow up quickly, and even save the time of educating the child.
But when he said that, Tewila, who was always smiling, suddenly became angry. He scolded the great God of Healing, spittle splashing all over his face.
According to Tewila, even if he became a god and reached the pinnacle of his career, he still needed to have a family!
"His Majesty never had a family …" Arcaian mumbled.
"Well, I have to tell you something." Sui Xiong sneered and raised a tentacle to emphasize his existence. "In fact, I was married."
Arcaian's eyes widened like pigeon eggs as he stared at Sui Xiong in disbelief.
"How … how could it be?! Why would a woman marry a jellyfish? " He opened his mouth wide and thought for a while with a dull look in his eyes. Then he shouted, "Could it be that Steele has a strong taste? Apart from her, no one else would be so perverted as to marry a jellyfish! "
Sui Xiong's face suddenly darkened. "Who told you that I married a woman in the shape of a jellyfish? Why would I marry a pervert? Also, why would you associate Steele with me? Do I look like a pervert who would even sleep with a pig? "
"You're right. Then who is it?" Arcaian asked.
Sui Xiong was about to blurt it out, but he suddenly realized something and smiled. "It's a secret."
Arcaian curled his lips and didn't think it was a big deal. But before he could say anything, Tewila angrily grabbed his head and pressed him down to bow and apologize.
"You little brat, do you know how to speak human language? How can you talk to a God like this? His Majesty, the Void Mask, is kind, so you can't use it as an excuse to be rude! "Tewila angrily scolded Arcaian, making him look dejected and dejected.
Seeing this, Sui Xiong found it funny, but he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Arcaian and his son were reunited, but what about himself? Would he have a chance to return to Earth and see his parents again?
The big jellyfish looked up at the sky silently, his heart full of melancholy.
