Chapter 667 - I Love You!

Just as Dracon acknowledged Hope, she waved her hand, and streaks of lightning appeared and circled him, from head to toe.

Sputtering sparks erupted as the lightning touched his body, but unlike before, they didn"t electrocute him.

Dracon was pleasantly surprised.

This little girl was turning nice!

Alas, his impression didn"t last for long as he realized what her powers were doing.

Instead of giving him a shock, the lightning was infused into his cells, like his body was a battery.

But he was a human and not a battery!

And even a battery would explode when it was charged far beyond its capacity!

"She is trying to explode me!!"

Dracon stared at Hope from the gap between lightning covering his face. She looked back at him with a twinkling gaze.

"Such a wicked girl!"

He had examined her before with what little perception he could use. From what he could tell, she was a little shy from being two-years-old! And except for the powers she possessed, she was no different from the children of her age!

At least this was his impression until a minute ago. Now he realized there was another exception.

"She"s a s.a.d.i.s.t!"

Dracon muttered.

"For her to be a s.a.d.i.s.t at such young age, it could only mean sadism was a trait she inherited from one of her parents!

"A parent so s.a.d.i.s.tic that even the DNA of the child was rich with sadism!"

Dracon was frightened.

If Hope was doing this to him, what would the extreme s.a.d.i.s.t parent do?

"Surely, Dr. NTR couldn"t be the s.a.d.i.s.t parent!"

Dracon"s heart raced as fear gripped his body.

If Dr. NTR was a s.a.d.i.s.t, Dracon has a feeling he would regret being born.

"This girl inherited his powers and awakened at such young age! And given how genetic works, she must have inherited the other strong trait from the second parent!

"So Dr. NTR shouldn"t be the s.a.d.i.s.t!"

Dracon"s heart calmed down.

"So it must be that Agatha!"

Dracon thought of Agatha"s reaction when he tried to kidnap Hope. Sure, Claudia has stepped in at the right moment, but Agatha was calm even before her arrival!

"A calm att.i.tude suits an extreme s.a.d.i.s.t! So that b.i.t.c.h is indeed a s.a.d.i.s.t!"

Dracon concluded this positively.

As long as the s.a.d.i.s.t parent wasn"t Dr. NTR, there was hope for him! All he now needed was an opportunity to break the anti-power cuffs and escape.

"AHHHHHHHHHH!"

Dracon"s daydreams were broken by the lightning pulsing through his cells. His cells couldn"t stand the pressure any longer, and they started exploding.

But he was an Alpha, and his healing powers kicked in the moment of the explosion.

So despite him literally exploding, he remained completely intact!

Even the blood stains disappeared thanks to the regeneration powers.

Hope"s little face sank.

Why was this tattoo uncle not exploding in the fas.h.i.+on she wanted?

As a child, her first instinct was to cry as he was not doing what she wanted. But then she thought of her father.

He has defeated her in the first few rounds of the explosion compet.i.tion. Still, she was able to win all the rounds after that and came out as the compet.i.tion champion!

Yes!

First defeat at exploding meant nothing!

All she need to do was to try until this uncle exploded!

She was the champion in the past and would remain the champion in the future!

Her face brightened, and her eyes surged with a golden radiance.

Swoosh~!

All over her body, currents of lightning erupted and wrapped her. The chair she was sitting on turned into nothingness, but she didn"t fall and continued to sit in the air.

A supreme power emerged from her and blasted through the entire room, destroying everything in its path.

"W-what?!" Dracon"s eyes widened. "She"s evolving because she failed to explode me?!"

What sort of logic was this?!

Shouldn"t a defeat crush her confidence instead of giving her a power boost!?

Hope looked at her hands coiled with lightning and then at Dracon. A smile that was unique to her father appeared on her lips, and she aimed at Dracon.

"UWAAAAAAAAAA!"

Boundless lightning burst into Dracon, and he screamed instantly. But his regeneration powers managed to save him again.

Hope wasn"t dejected. She aimed at him again, and as the lightning got ready to surge out, she suddenly stopped and turned around.

She has sensed the presence of the one she loved the most!

Whoosh~!

A teleportation portal emerged, and through it, Kiba stepped out.

"Hope?"

Kiba was surprised by seeing her levitating in the air.

"Papa!"

She didn"t give him time to think and rushed at him.

"It hasn"t even been a day!"

Kiba smiled and opened his arms.

"And yet you missed me this much?"

Kiba asked as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

She looked at him and nodded.

"I missed you as well," Kiba said as his eyes glistened. "More than you would ever know."

She didn"t fully know the language he used, nor the words he used, but she completely understood him.

In fact, through the telepathic bond she shared with him, she always understood more than he intended.

She understood the warmth, love, and fear he has for her.

Her eyes teared up, and she brought her hands on his face.

"Papa!"

She said as she gently caressed his face.

"I love you!"

Kiba dug his teeth into his lower lip as he struggled to control his tears. His attempts proved futile, and a tear escaped his eye.

"I love you too, my child!"

He now knew what his future-self must have felt when he saved Hope from the onslaught of Fate.

On the path of loneliness and madness, the journey of million years was completed when he held her in his arms.

Perhaps she had felt what he experienced when she was in his arms. And even though she never said anything to him, her actions of running her fingers on his face told him everything he wanted to know.

She loved him with everything she had.

This one moment of realization gave his future-self more satisfaction than his entire life.

Perhaps he always knew the love she has for him, but the moment of realization was what he wanted to experience.

Maybe that was why he did everything.

"Before you arrived, I was incapable of love, but you changed everything!" Kiba said with a warm smile. "Now I love you with every fiber of my existence!"

Hope wiped the tear sliding down his cheek and stared into his eyes. He saw his sentiments flas.h.i.+ng in her eyes and knew she loved him just as much.

"Papa!"

Hope aimed a finger at the end of the room.

"Hmm?"

Kiba finally noticed the condition of the room. While surprised, he didn"t really care for the damage and looked at what his daughter was pointing at.

"Dracon Moonfall?!" Kiba was stunned.

If not for Hope in his arms, his powers would have exploded, and he would have charged at Dracon like a wild beast.

The anger he carried for the person who destroyed his first dream – his home – couldn"t be described with words alone.

But now, this boundless anger didn"t even show a trace. That"s how much Hope"s presence affected him.

Dracon Moonfall scrutinized Kiba.

Thanks to Claudia, he knew Kiba was none other than Rebecca"s b.a.s.t.a.r.d, whom he targeted long ago on Lord Harley"s instructions. While he didn"t understand how such a thing was possible, he knew Kiba greatly loved Dream Rise House.

Otherwise, that loli – Claudia – wouldn"t be so furious.

And yet, he sensed no anger or resentment from Kiba!

The only thing he felt was the love Kiba has for his daughter.

"This makes my guess more than correct!" Dracon thought with a sly glint. "He"s not even capable of sadism!"

As Dracon concluded, Hope pointed at him and then turned to her father.

"I want to explode him!" Hope exclaimed telepathically. "Could I?"

"...….."

Kiba was taken aback, but how could he ever say no to his sweet daughter?

Besides, he wasn"t the type to control the life of his child. He believed in freedom.

So, with a gentle smile, he replied, "You are free to do anything you please! And remember, you don"t need mine or your mother"s permission to do what you want!"

Hope"s eyes erupted with happiness.

Papa was the best!
