A few days later, under the guidance of an elder of the Grand Council, Arcaian’s clone went to the prison of the Archaean Glacier, found his great-grandfather and father sleeping in the ice, and then released them.
His great-grandfather, Clahot Pasteur, was a legendary master and one of the advanced fairies. The prison life hadn’t changed this pioneering scholar at all. When he awoke from his deep sleep, the first sentence he said was, “Can I go back to the laboratory and finish some experiments before we start talking about something else?”
Wow, how crazy he was to devote his whole life to this scientific research! Seeing his craziness, it was no wonder that when the Orc Judge wanted to imprison him, there was only one elder who asked for mercy for him.
In contrast, Arcaian’s father, Tuela Pasteur, was much more calm. When he woke up, he meditated for a while and looked at his son.
He wasn’t as strong as his grandfather. He was only at high-level and hadn’t entered the Legendary Realm. He didn’t know that Arcaian was a G.o.d, but was surprised that his son was so young.
Only a few years had pa.s.sed?
“What a surprise! Only a few years later, you saved us!” he said. “I don’t know how you did it, but you’re amazing. I am so proud of you!”
Arcaian burst into tears and held his father in his arms. Arcaian may have been a G.o.d, but at this moment, he was just a teenager who had been separated from his father for many years.
After the happy family reunion, Arcaian talked in detail about what had happened over the years.
When he heard that his idea hadn’t gotten good results, but his research materials had been applied, Clahot Pasteur seemed a little sad. He said with regret, “Maybe there was something wrong with my idea… I’ll take some time to review my research data and do some control experiments… I believe firmly that my idea is right…”
Towards his great-grandfather, a science enthusiast, Arcaian had no memory of anything but his craziness. When he was born, he had never seen his grandfather, let alone his great-grandfather. All he knew was that his great-grandfather and grandfather had both been science enthusiasts and spent most of their time in the laboratory. They didn’t know anything about the outside world. They used all their wisdom on scientific research.
Tuela Pasteur was less interested in research than Clahot Pasteur. For him, the study of “Ash of eternal decay” was nothing but a family tradition. Compared with scientific research, he cared more about his son’s life over the years.
“You explained too simply before.” When he returned to the Ancient Forest for lunch, he said, “You must have worked very hard these years. Tell me more about it.”
“Actually, it wasn’t hard at all…”
Tuela touched his son’s head, laughed, and said, “You’ve grown up. Even if the sky fell, you would want to carry it on your shoulders. Now you’re much stronger than your father, but remember that you are always a child who needs care and love from their parents.”
“Really, it wasn’t hard!” Arcaian’s face went red. “Dad! I’m a G.o.d now. Don’t treat me like a child!
“Well, you’re not a kid anymore. You are great. You are amazing.” Tuela laughed as he spoke, apparently not taking it seriously.
“Let’s go and visit His Majesty Void Mask. I don’t expect great-grandfather will take the time to go, so let’s go and thank him. ”
Arcaian agreed. A few hours later, they came to the “sanctuary” in the G.o.d’s Kingdom. Sui Xiong was still lying at the conference table, looking like a jellyfish dish.
Tuela sincerely thanked him and apologized that Clahot Pasteur hadn’t come, because Clahot had gone straight to the lab after they got out of prison. Of course, Sui Xiong didn’t care about this. He laughed and said that he hadn’t helped much, but Arcaian had contributed a lot.
Actually, he had asked Tragic Wind Big Druid for help and prepared a Plan B quietly. But he didn’t mention this.
“In fact, I’m more grateful for your help in taking care of Arcaian over the years than for your help rescuing us.” Tuela was nervous at first, but found that the Void Mask was a good person, or rather, a good jellyfish. He was more relaxed, laughing and saying, “As a father, when I heard that my son had advanced quickly and even became a G.o.d… Words are not enough to express my grat.i.tude to you!”
Sui Xiong couldn’t help but scratch his head. “In fact, I’ve done nothing. Arcaian has helped me a lot over the years, and all I’ve done for him is… building a laboratory for him, finding several laboratory a.s.sistants, giving him new ideas, and helping him promote the research results. But all of this had tremendous benefits for my church and territory, so I only did what I had to do.”
Tuela laughed happily. “No wonder he can be a kind G.o.d. To tell you the truth, before I was imprisoned, I was worried about whether he would go astray with resentment… I’m not afraid of death, but I am afraid that my death will have a bad impact on him. It’s so lucky that he met you!”
Sui Xiong laughed very happily. Although Tuela was a scholar, he wasn’t nerdt like other scholars. He took good care of other people’s feelings, and it was pleasant to chat with him. They talked for a long time. Finally, Sui Xiong couldn’t help but ask him if he was interested in serving as a governor in the Republic of Northwest.
“Me?” Tuela was surprised. “I’m a fairy and a scholar. Is it really appropriate for me to be a governor that deals with government affairs?”
“I believe you,” Sui Xiong said. “There are different kinds of jobs in the government. You’re very good at getting along with people. You’re also very strong. By the way, you’re Arcaian’s father. There are many jobs that you can do well.”
Tuela hesitated and turned to his son.
“Dad, whatever you decide, I’ll support you!” Arcaian said immediately.
Under these conditions, Tuela put aside his worries and accepted Sui Xiong’s offer.
To be honest, although he was a scholar, he wasn’t really interested in scientific research. For him, scientific research was nothing but the family tradition. Compared to being a scientist, he would have preferred to be a pub owner or something… It was when he was a pub owner that he met Arcaian’s mother.
Unfortunately, Arcaian’s mother had died of an illness soon after Arcaian was born. Otherwise, their family reunion would have been perfect.
Sui Xiong had also asked Arcaian about this and only knew that the whole family was really unlucky, perhaps cursed by the G.o.ddess of Family. Clahot Pasteur’s wife had disapproved of Clahot giving up his Druid status to become an alchemist and divorced him, Tuela’s parents and brother had died in a serious accident during an experiment, and even Tuela had been seriously injured at the time. Tuela’s wife had also died due to illness. As for Arcaian… Ever since he started working with Sui Xiong at the age of seventeen, he spent all day in the laboratory, so he didn’t have a girlfriend, let alone a wife!
For a G.o.d, marriage wasn’t a must. If they needed to continue their family line, they could create their own child directly without the processes of marriage and pregnancy. They could even make the child grow up quickly and save time educating the child.
Tuela was angry about that and scolded Arcaian, the G.o.d of Healing, to find a girlfriend.
In Tuela’s view, even if one became a G.o.d and their career had reached its peak, one still had to make a family.
“His Majesty didn’t have a family…” Arcaian muttered in a low voice.
“Well, I need to tell you one thing,” Sui Xiong sneered, raising one tentacle. “In fact, I was married once.”
Arcaian’s eyes suddenly opened as wide as pigeon eggs. It seemed that he couldn’t believe it.
“How… How could that be possible? What woman wants to marry a jellyfish?” He was shocked, his mouth opened wide, and shouted, “Was it Steele? Besides her, it’s impossible that anybody else would marry a jellyfis.h.!.+”
Sui Xiong’s face suddenly darkened. “Who told you that I married someone as a jellyfish? And why did you mention Steele? She’s a pig! Why would I marry a pig?”
“Okay, so who did you marry?” Arcaian asked.
Sui Xiong was about to blurt out, but suddenly realized something and smiled. “It’s a secret.”
Arcaian pouted his lips disapprovingly, but before he could say anything else, Tuela had grabbed his head angrily and asked him to apologize.
“You b*stard, how dare you! How could you talk to your Master G.o.d like this? Your Majesty’s kindness is not an excuse for your rudeness!” Tuela angrily scolded Arcaian.
Looking the scene, Sui Xiong was amused, but he couldn’t help feeling homesick.
Arcaian’s family was reunited, but what about mine? Is there any chance for me to go back to earth and meet my parents?
The jellyfish looked up at the sky in silence.
