Chapter 90: 90
The next day, Fabian visited a room located in the eastern part of the fortress just as Adrian woke up .

Evelyn appeared shocked at his arrival, but she only stepped back and didn’t stop him . In any case, Fabian was Adrian’s father, and he was the person who saved Adrian from that incident .

“What about the child?” he asked .

“There’s no significant improvement, but I’m glad he’s in a stable condition,” Philip answered him with a strange expression .

Evelyn cried again as she saw at the demon’s teeth marks all over Adrian’s small body . “Why is the wound still not completely healed?” But, when Adrian, who had fallen asleep, suddenly turned and twitched his eyes, Evelyn quickly hid her tears . As she was determined not to show her weakness to Adrian .

Adrian soon opened his eyes . When his small hands reached out to her, Evelyn hugged him with a gentle smile, “Adrian, did you sleep well?”

“Eh…Blyn . ” Adrian’s voice, which rang when he was still sleepy, was very low . Fabian quietly watched the child in Evelyn’s arms until he really woke up . Adrian immediately drove his sleepiness away, looked around actively, and found Fabian .

“Oh, Jimoo!” Adrian’s little hand turned to Fabian . Nora, who was next to him, was amazed as well as Evelyn .

“Jimoo!”

“Adrian, you shouldn’t say that . ”

“Evelyn, Jimoo saved Adrian!”

Evelyn’s mouth suddenly became stiff at the moment . Nora, who was watching, quickly lifted Adrian and sat him down on a chair . However, there was no way to stop the child who just opened his eyes for the first time in a long time .

“……Jimoo!” Adrian’s gaze turned to Fabian . Everyone, including Evelyn, immediately looked at him too . However, the person concerned calmly approached the child without even knowing their glance .

“Yes, you remember me . ”

After that, Adrian seemed to be in a good mood and jumped from his chair .

“Adrian!”

Fabian quickly caught his small body when Adrian lost his balance and nearly fell forward . Evelyn’s heart almost fell out but Adrian, who was hugged by Fabian in an awkward position, burst out laughing .

“Jimoo beat wing demon well!” and saved Adrian . ”

The innocence of children was the most terrifying thing . Everyone, including the servants, immediately became aware of the situation . They all left the room in a rush . Only three people were left . One of them was Evelyn, who immediately apologized to Fabian . “Your Majesty, forgive me, I’ll teach him a proper manner when the child gets better . ”

“Well… …he better gives me the proper title . ” Surprisingly, Fabian didn’t seem to dislike it . That child was well attached to Fabian . And Adrian seemed to have a big crush on Fabian after he saved him .

“Evelyn, Jimoo……he’s a black hawk!” His dark blue eyes stared fixedly at Fabian, “Jimoo! Adrian wants to be a Black Hawk too!”

At the moment, Fabian felt a throbbing feeling in his chest . It felt strange, like something hot and squishy was spreading in his heart .

“No . A very strong Black Hawk!”

Evelyn felt she had to stop Adrian right now and approached that child quickly . But before she was able to do that, Fabian spoke to him first . “Okay . ”

For Evelyn, it was also an unexpected answer . Even though he already knew Adrian was his son, she didn’t know Fabian would deal with a child who didn’t even know basic manners .

“If you grow up healthy, you can be as strong as me . ”

“Really?” Adrian opened his eyes wide .

“No, I’m much stronger than the Black Hawk . ” Fabian was always serious, even when dealing with a child .

“Wow…… . ”

Appropriately, when Fabian nodded firmly after Adrian looked at him with admiration, the sight looked so natural . Evelyn forgot what she wanted to say and stopped to watch the scene . When Fabian carried him, it was a blood relationship that seemed so close . So that anyone who looked at them would say that the two were very similar .

Fabian was clumsy, but he dealt with the child with all his heart, and Adrian was already completely in love with his father .

“And I’m not Jimoo . You need to know the etiquette to be a strong guy,” said Fabian . But soon, Adrian had a confused look on his face, “You’re not Jimoo?”

“I’m not Jimoo . When you call me, you should say Your Majesty . ”

Evelyn tried to hold her laughter, wondering if Adrian could understand such a complicated explanation . She thought that she would never see a scene like this in her life . Adrian, hugged by Fabian, as he did from the beginning, was so natural .

“Uhm……”

“Do you understand?”

“I’m Adrian . Jimoo is…… . ” His little pupils trembled . Adrian’s little brain seemed to have reached its limit . But Fabian didn’t lose his composure and said calmly, “You must call me Your Majesty, not Ji-moo . ”

“Jimoo… … aren’t you, Jimoo?”

“Noo, Jim-oo is a word that can only be used when I call myself . You must call me Your Mjes-ty . ”

“But Adrian…Adrian… So, where’s Jimoo?” Adrian gradually began to show a tearful face .

“He’s not gone, he’s…… . ”

“Ugh…… . ” Just before he burst into tears, Adrian’s sorrow exploded when he made eye contact with Evelyn . “Ugh…hikkk hikk…Jimoo, there’s no Jimoo…… . ”

Fabian was even more shocked to see Adrian crying so sadly all of a sudden . He didn’t know what to do, looking back and forth at Evelyn and Adrian as if he was holding a bomb .

“No, I didn’t bother him . ” Fabian quickly made an excuse to Evelyn . Then she made an inevitable expression and approached the two . Adrian, whose face was filled with tears, looked so sad . ” Please, give him to me . ” Evelyn reached out her hands and hugged him .

“Adrian, you said you’re not a baby anymore, are you?”

“Uh…Uh… Jimoo…… . ”

“Only a small baby who cries like this . Adrian, are you going to be a baby?”

“…Uh . . Uh…no . ”

Adrian was a two years old child with strong self-esteem . What he hated the most was being treated like a baby . He bit his lips to stop his crying and started to hiccup . However, seeing Fabian looking at him with an unfair look, it felt like something was wrong .

“Adrian, not knowing manners means a baby . ”

Adrian, who was embraced by Evelyn, kept looking at Fabian sadly . In Adrian’s mind, he was obviously Jimoo, but why was she denying himself and staring at him with an annoyed expression .

“In the future, you should never call him that way . Understand?”

“Ugh…Ugh… . . ”

Of course, even though Adrian was her own son, Evelyn still had to apply discipline to him properly . Fabian, in particular, already understood etiquette at a younger age than Adrian . Fabian, who had lived in a normative environment, must have objected to this kind of behavior .

“Well… . . it’s also true that Jimoo is me . ” Evelyn’s face was hardened by Fabian’s unexpected declaration . Then she turned her head and looked back at Fabian, doubting her ears .

“I’ll allow you to call me that until the age of three . ”

“Your Majesty?”

Fabian deliberately avoided Evelyn’s eyes . Instead, he made eye contact with Adrian, who immediately smiled broadly .

“Jimoo!” Adrian quickly opened his hand for Fabian . Without hesitation, Fabian took Adrian from Evelyn quickly . “Jimoo is the best!”

Only Evelyn stood there in a daze, unable to grasp the situation . Even Fabian’s face looked so happy, “Yes, you know the most important fact . ”

“Black Hawk! Jimoo is the best! Adrian will be too!”

“Of course, you can . ”

Now it was Evelyn who felt a little bit betrayed by Adrian . Either way, the two men seemed already engrossed in their own world .

“Jimoo, I Bung Bung Bung Bung Bung!”

“Bung Bung?”

“High, high like a black hawk! Bung Bung!”

“Ah, I see, don’t worry I’m strong . ”

Fabian had always been serious . So he would do his best even if the opponent was a child . Since Adrian was born, maybe this was the first time he felt thrown very high into the air and repeatedly landed in Fabian’s arms . It must have been so nice that he forgot the pain, laughing out of breath .

“Jimoo, one more time! Higher!”

“Yes, men shouldn’t be afraid of high places . ”

“Hold up! Yikes… … Jimoo is the best!”

Adrian had wholly forgotten about Evelyn and burst out laughing in Fabian’s embrace . Fabian insisted it was okay not to know good manners . However, the two men did their best and played seriously …… And Evelyn didn’t know which one who was more ridiculous .

 

 

Adrian fell asleep as if fainting after playing passionately . Even Fabian was panting a little . Evelyn still couldn’t believe what she saw . And now, there was a very awkward silence in the room .

“Your Majesty . ”

Even though Evelyn spoke first, Fabian avoided her eyes for no reason .

“You can’t throw a child who hasn’t even healed yet that high…… . ”

Uhuk…Fabian suddenly started coughing .

“And …… it’s indeed my fault for not educating him properly, but you shouldn’t spoil him either . ”

Of course, Evelyn didn’t think that Fabian would allow Adrian to call him like that . Because Fabian himself wasn’t the type a person who would see a child as a child . But he allowed Adrian to call him that way until he was three years old . Evelyn didn’t want to nag, but it didn’t make any sense at all .

“Your Majesty, are you listening to me?”

“… . Yes . ” Fabian barely opened his mouth . He still had a neat face as if nothing had happened . And it reminded her of his shameless personality . “Adrian is smart, and he’ll understand soon . He was very strong and brave . Like… … . ”

Evelyn didn’t want this conversation to flow in an awkward direction and cut him quickly . “Yes, just like you . ”

There was no law, but only Fabian was shameless . Evelyn gave Fabian a tacit warning not to do anything stupid and useless .

“That also makes sense . ” It felt really strange when Fabian took her words seriously, “I’m glad he’s a strong child . Something……it was nice to see him laughing . ” Fabian said it frankly . “Maybe, it was a scene that I’ll remember for the rest of my life . ”

The eyes of the two met at once .

“Thank you . ”

That one word blurred the hatred that existed between the two . There was sincerity in Fabian’s black eyes . When Evelyn looked at him closer, he had eyes that resembled Adrian .

“… … I made a decision earlier . ”

“What is it?”

“No matter where this child grows up, I will surely protect him . I just suddenly thought like that . ”

Maybe it was when Fabian saw the child’s happy laughter . He wanted to protect Adrian, who smiled and hugged him with infinite trust and wanted to grow up to be strong like him .

“Even if he’s not Your Majesty’s successor… … Will you protect him?”

“Even I don’t like it, but I will . As long as Adrian can grow up safely . ”

Evelyn couldn’t believe what he had just said . However, it was clear that there was a deep affection on Fabian’s face, carrying Adrian a while ago . It was a gentle face that she had never seen before . In the past, it was an affection feeling that was a little different from his love for Evelyn .

“You said you wanted to keep the child’s smile . So he can’t stay by my side . ”

“……yes . ”

“Surely, I’ve never laughed like that . ” A lonely, bitter smile engraved on Fabian’s mouth .

“If Adrian is raised in an Imperial family, he wouldn’t know how to smile . ”

“Yes, perhaps for the rest of his life . ”

After seeing Adrian’s innocent smile, even Fabian hesitated to take him to the Imperial family . Now he understood a little bit what Evelyn felt .

“……It can’t be helped . ”

For the first time, the two thoughts seemed to look in the same direction . Somehow it was a heartbreaking and sad moment .
