Tristan had no idea about what Zhen-Zhen was talking about. Gone? What did she mean by that?
Zhen-Zhen just hugged Tristan tightly, burying herself deep into his arms. She couldn't bring herself to tell him that her father disappeared once again after saving Tristan.
"Wifey, what's wrong? What happened to my father-in-law? Where is he? Did the guardian warriors cause trouble again?" Tristan bombarded Zhen-Zhen with lots of questions, gently patting her back to comfort her.
Zhen-Zhen tried to calm her emotions first before explaining things to Tristan. Though it's hard, Tristan had the right to know what happened to her father. But she didn't want him to blame himself for what happened.
"Tristan… my father… he is gone. He disappeared again after trying to save you. You were in critical condition when you got hurt by the divine dagger. We almost lost you. My Fa-Fa had no choice but to… to sacrifice himself to keep you alive."
Tristan froze when he heard the truth from Zhen-Zhen. 'So it was my father-in-law who saved me.'
Tristan looked down, his heart sank. Just when his relationship with his father-in-law was improving, he disappeared, leaving them heartbroken.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'Why? Why does it have to happen to us? I am going to marry Zhen-Zhen but her father is now gone. He can't see his daughter walking down the aisle. He was supposed to escort my wife, giving us his blessing before uttering our vows. This is my fault.'
Just like what Zhen-Zhen had anticipated, Tristan began blaming himself. His throat constricted and unshed tears stung his eyes.
'This is my fault. I'm so useless. I caused this… her father is now gone because of me…'
Tristan was in the middle of blaming and hating himself when he heard Zu Wan's voice in his subconscious. Zu Wan left him a message through FaMo. FaMo was relaying Zu Wan's message to Tristan right now.
"Tristan, I hope you recover quickly so that my daughter will no longer cry while worrying about you. Please take care of my daughter. Love her with all your heart. Protect her with all your strength and power."
"Tristan, by the time you are hearing this message, I might be gone already… but I want you to know that this is not your fault. I chose to save you because I know you are the one who can make my daughter happy."
"I'm leaving her in your care now. Raise your children well. Always be with them. Don't be like me… who left Zhen-Zhen alone. Watch your twins grow up and be with them as always."
The stored tears started to flow, coursing down his cheeks unchecked. He felt grateful and touched hearing the demon god's message.
Who said that the demon god was pure evil? They were wrong! The guardian warriors were so wrong in judging him! He already changed into a better person.
He was a loving father to Zhen-Zhen. He was willing to die just to make them happy. Aside from Zhen-Zhen, Zu Wan knew that lots of people would be sad once Tristan died. That's another reason why he saved Tristan.
He felt grateful to the Davis Family. They accepted his daughter despite the fact she was different from them. They didn't despise her or become afraid of her. They accepted her as part of their family.
"Tristan, I fulfilled my promise so please fulfill your promise as well. I already gave you the power to protect her against the people who would try to hurt her. Tristan… you are now powerful enough to keep her safe. I passed on to you my magical powers."
Tristan was at a loss for words. He couldn't believe that he possessed a magical power now. His father-in-law became true to his promise. He didn't know how he could thank him for everything he had done for him… for all his sacrifices.
"Please work with FaMo harmoniously. You are now his new Master! FaMo is your black fire dragon and black fire is your core power. Use them well."
Tristan's eyes gleamed with hope, knowing he was now capable of protecting his wife.
'Father-in-law, I will be forever grateful for this wonderful gift that you've given me. I promise to cherish this second life. I will dedicate my life to her. You don't have to worry about Zhen-Zhen. I will do my best to keep her happy all the time.' Tristan solemnly swore to Zu Wan.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"One last thing… Please hug my daughter, comfort her. Let her know that you will be with her. Tell her don't be sad for long as everything will be fine. Tell her I'm sorry and I love her so much..."
"And… please say my goodbye to Ella and Titania. Tell them to live their lives well and be happy. I'm so happy to meet them."
After saying that, Zu Wan's voice had completely vanished in his subconscious. That was the last message of Zu Wan before he disappeared from their world.
'Is this really true? My father-in-law is gone?' Tristan asked himself when he could no longer hear Zu Wan's voice. Deep inside his heart, Tristan was hoping and silently praying that Zu Wan survived… that the demon god would still return to them at the right time.
If he managed to return before, Tristan believed Zu Wan could still go back to be with them. He was not losing hope. He was not closing the possibility that they would see him again… that Zu Wan could stay with them, completing the family!
'Father-in-law, wherever you are, please come back to us. We will be waiting for your return… no matter how many years. Make sure to come back! Even if you didn't see Zhen-Zhen grow up, at least you have to see your grandchildren grow up.' Tristan spoke in his mind, hoping that Zu Wan could still hear him.
"Tristan? Are you okay?" Zhen-Zhen's voice brought him back to the present.
"Wifey… I just talked to your Fa-Fa. He wants me to relay a message to you."
Tristan kissed Zhen-Zhen on her forehead, tightening his grip on her body. Then he told her everything Zu Wan had told him a while ago– Zu Wan's Last Message.
