My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 17: The Truth!

Back to M.C

After sleeping for about 30 minutes Jin-ah woke up and looked at me.

"Did you have a comfortable nap?" I asked her as I caressed her head.

I was about to remove my hand from her head but she held it with her hands.

"Let's stay like this for some time." She said a bit shy as she looked at me.

I smiled and nodded then started caressing her head again.

'She must have a lot of questions now that her head is cleared.'

"Is it dad Or some monster who took over his body?" she asked.

"It's 100% uncle don't worry about it, that was the reason it took some time before he could come back. And we also did a DNA check with Jin-Woo's blood so don't worry." I explained.

"And you're only asking this now?" I said while pinching her cheeks.

"And whose fault do you think that is?" she said cheekily while looking at.

"It was because I didn't want you to fall into denial that he isn't your father. I wanted you to be happy as you greet your father. He came back didn't he, don't think about anything else and trust in Jin-woo and me. if he was some monster that looked like uncle, we wouldn't even let him near you. We only told you about this after confirming it in every possible way." I was telling her this because I wanted her to be happy that she can meet her family that she lost. After all, not everyone is lucky enough to have a chance like this...

When I was thinking about this, she stood up and it was my turn to be hugged now.

She held my head with her hands as my face was on her chest.

The roles have been reversed in an instant. She spoke softly as she ran her fingers through my hair

"Are you missing uncle and aunt?"

"Umm," I said as I was missing my mom and dad but from my previous world.

"Don't you still have a family? We are with you right." She said as she hugged me tightly.

"Yes, I do have a family with me, and you as well," I said as I hugged her waist and pulled her closer.

She was practically sitting on my lap while hugging me.

I raised my head from her chest and now both of our faces are on the same level. I can see she is blushing and her heartbeat was getting faster.

"You are good at consoling people," I said as I smiled.

"Hmph, who do you think I learned it from." She said as she was looking at me.

I chuckled.

As I gave her a light kiss on her cheek.

"Thank you for caring about me," I said softly with a bright smile. When I saw her face. it was red. The blush reached her neck.

I picked her up from my lap as I placed her down next to me while she was still in a daze. Then my phone made a notification sound so I checked it and saw it was Hae-in's message.

-Are you going to come tomorrow at 8 in the morning for teaching me.

I replied to her.

-Yes, at 8 A.M tomorrow. At the training ground in the association. I already got Chairman's permission to use one that is usually empty.

-Ok then see you tomorrow.

-See you tomorrow. And I won't go easy on you just because you are beautiful.

-...I understand.

And the chat ended.

I saw Jin-ah was still in a daze looking at me.

"What's the matter?" I asked while tilting my head.

"No-Nothing." She said as she looked away while blushing.

I stood up and her a light pat on her head from behind.

"What is bothering you?" I asked.

"It's nothing." She said angrily now. I'll ask her later when she calms down

"OK, OK Jin-woo and uncle will be coming back soon so let's make something for lunch that will reassure you that it's the real uncle. " I smiled as I patted her head again.

"Really." She brightened up again.

"Yes, it's time to pull out the secret weapon. You should take shower in the meantime." I said as went into the kitchen.

She nodded and went to take a shower

And started making something that will calm her down.

I'm making Freid chicken. Yep, you've heard it right fried chicken. It will calm her down and also clear some of her suspicions about uncle I know it might sound stupid but that's just how it is.

The reason Jin-ah likes fried chicken so much is because of her father. They both love to eat it no matter the time. Jin-ah came out of the shower after 15 minutes. And tried to take a piece of chicken, but I stopped her.

"Stingy." She walked towards the sofa and started to use her phone.

While I was making the food for the four of us. Jin-woo came back with uncle. He had a stoic face, as usual, he then looked at me and smiled then he looked at Jin-ah and his expression cracked.

He went near her, she was a bit nervous from what I can see. But she is happy as well to see her father. He hugged her and said while patting her head.

"You've grown up." I can see him crying slightly. From my memories, he loved Jin-ah and Aunt a lot. If he was talking to us he had a straight face but in front of Aunt and Jin-ah, it would break. I took a pic of him to show Jin-ah later. she was also crying as tears welled up in her eyes. And while they were talking Jin-ah was a bit awkward, only time can fix this gap he left behind.

"Ok let's have lunch then. It's fried chicken let's eat it quickly." I said as I placed the dishes on the table and called everyone. Ji-ah and uncle reached the table almost instantly and started eating happily.

I saw jin-woo looking towards them with a slight smile. It's good that they can be in harmony now we only have to wait for aunt to wake up I guess it will take a month at most as Jin-woo told me that he will be going somewhere for a week or so.

'He will be entering the demon dungeon soon.'

"Jin-woo let's eat or they will finish all of it," I said pulling him out of his thoughts as we sat down and started eating. After eating I can see both uncle and Jin-ah were satisfied. I just shook my head and gave uncle and Jin-Woo some Oolong tea. And sat down Jin-ah sat down next to me.

I know he is feeling conflicted right now. He has a mission to do after all and he won't be able to stay with his daughter a lot. and there is aunt's condition as well.

"Uncle you should take some rest, you must've had a hard time surviving in the dungeon," I said to him as I nudged Jin-ah near me who jerked a bit.

"Yes, you should rest….. Dad" she said in a low voice after some hesitation. But it brought a smile to his face and he said.

"Ok, I'll rest for a week."

After that Jin-ah went to sleep and Jin-woo left to meet Jin-ho.

Now, we are left alone in the room, 'i guess it's time.'

"You don't think that I am some monster impersonating to be your uncle." He said with his stoic face.

"If you were then you would've wished you were dead," I said as my eyes flashed red and my Sharingan opened.

His body immediately took a stance with 2 daggers in his hands I can see his pupils dilating a bit.

Then he just shook his head and sat down again.

"The little kid has all grown up now, you can even threaten me. But it's good that you are thinking about Jin-ah," he said while smiling slightly.

"Well, I don't want her to be sad. I am sure Jin-woo is the same." I said to him.

"So now to the main topic what is bothering you so much, Uncle," I asked him as I narrowed my eyes.

"Do you want to know what happened while I was trapped in the dungeon?" He said hesitating a bit I know why he telling me this.

'The rulers probably told him to kill me I can see the reaction he had when he came into the room others might not have noticed it but I did.'

'And now he wants to tell me all he knows. He thinks that if he said the truth to me I won't do towards the monarch's side. Because he won't be able to bring himself to kill me.'

"What happened?" I asked him feigning ignorance.

He nodded and started recounting what he had gone through.
