《Chronicles of The Dragon Empire: Rise of the Dragon King (Rewritten)》Chapter 6: The Ninja Father

(Hamada’s POV)
I got out from the car and my bodyguards did the same. We are in the mansion of Fafnir-dono. He’s at the gate, waiting for me.
(Hamada): “Wait here.”
I say to my bodyguards. They stay behind as I approach Fafnir-dono. As always, he’s intimidating due his sheer height. 2,30 meters, golden, almost glowing eyes and a strong face. Clearly muscular, although not bulky contribute to his intimidation.
Although he has this intimidating aura, he’s surprisingly gentle and sociable. When I get close, he smiles warmly, and I feel welcomed by a friend. I smile as well, and we shake hands.
(Fafnir): “If it isn’t the little brat Hamada?”
(Hamada): “It still makes me jealous that you don’t age at all.”
(Fafnir): “Well, I can’t say anything about that. Come in, your daughter is in the interrogation room in the underground.”
He said, guiding me through the house. As we walked, we talked a bit.
(Hamada): “So, how are things going? Still studying human society?”
(Fafnir): “Yeah, I really want to finish my studies on society. Since I mastered martial arts, there isn’t a lot to do after all.”
(Hamada): “You say like it was nothing, but you mastered more than two hundred martial arts and weapons, including swords, maces and other weapons. It’s a bit frustrating, actually.”
(Fafnir): “Don’t say like that, I barely slept while training, you know me. The time that I spent training is almost all the hours of my life training. Anyway, you are welcome to come here any time you want to train, I’m quite free after all.”
(Hamada): “Oh! I’ll come here to train then. I will also bring my eldest son here, I don’t know if he remembers you though.”
(Fafnir): “Well, that’s not a problem! Just bring him here. Also, bring your wife, you bragged so much about her that I want to meet her, you little brat!”

(Hamada): “Of course that I will bring her here! I also talked a lot about you to her, she’s also curious about you.”
We laughed. We were almost in the interrogation room. I stop for a moment, and Fafnir-dono also stops.
(Hamada): “Fafnir-dono-”
(Fafnir): “Drop the formalities already, there aren’t any people around here. I already said that you and I are friends. I don’t know about you, but I would risk my life for you if something happens to you.”
I stayed quiet at that. It’s true. We both fought with our lives in the line, and I do see Fafnir-dono as an older brother.
(Hamada): “Then, Fafnir. Why did my daughter invaded your house?”
(Fafnir): “Because she’s a pervert.”
(Hamada): “GAH!”
WHAT?! My daughter is a pervert?! Wait, that means that she’s into Fafnir! I can use this to marry her to him! My clan follows the belief that we should marry worthy and strong people, and I always deemed Fafnir worthy! Now that my daughter has a thing for him, I could marry her to him and have him in our clan!
Frankly, having Fafnir as part of my clan would reassure me about the future of my family. So, I will push my daughter to him. Since I know that he will take good care of her if they end up marrying, so I don’t have to worry about him making her sad.
I contain myself as we walk inside the interrogation room. My daughter is seated on the steel chair, handcuffed to the table. She looks at me, and lower her head when she meets my hard look.
(Hamada): “Fafnir, can I have a moment with her?”
(Fafnir): “Sure. I will make dinner while you both talk. Any request, Hamada?”

(Hamada): “Gyoza, please.”
(Fafnir): “Alright, I’ll call when the dinner is ready.”
Then, Fafnir gets out from the room, leaving me alone with my daughter. I sit in front of her.
(Hamada): “Why you broke in his house?”
(Akame): “Well… I suspected that he wasn’t up for no good, and he’s strong. Also, the way that he showed up as the heir of the Yamaguchi family was strange too. I wanted to investigate, so I broke in here and wanted to set up some cameras…”
(Hamada): “I see… summing up, you’re a pervert.”
(Akame): “Dad! Not you too!”
(Hamada): “Ah, I don’t remember raising my daughter as a perv who stalks people.”
I saying, using my finger the wipe a inexistent tear.
(Akame): “Hear what I’m saying de gozaru!”
She screams, with tears in her eyes. Suddenly getting serious, I put both my elbows in the table and rest my chin on my hands, in a serious vibe.
(Hamada): “Now, Akame, I understand your actions, I know you very well, and you acted as I trained you to, so I don’t have anything to punish you.”
(Akame): “But I was caught, this is an offense to the clan’s name…”
(Hamada): “Don’t worry, you were bound to fail in the moment you tried to break in Fafnir’s house. He probably detected you smell as soon as you entered the house.”
(Akame): “Smell?”
(Hamada): “Yeah, smell. I will explain later, but for now, don’t feel bad for being caught, Fafnir is simply impossible to get by surprise. Anyway, Akame, seeing that you went far enough to try to spy on him, it means that you have considered him, right?”
She blushes slightly, and hesitates before answering.
(Akame): “Yes, I did.”
(Hamada): “I see. My daughter, I recommend him as a potential husband.”
She widened her eyes, saying.
(Akame): “Someone that even you approves…”
(Hamada): “Yeah, he’s a good person, and I can say this from the bottom of my heart. Akame, I won’t force you to marry him, but it’s a promising idea to do so.”
She stays silent for some time, before saying:
(Akame): “Alright, I will try!”
(Hamada): “Ok! Then let’s get those cuffs off, I’m itching to eat Fafnir’s food again.”
(Akame): “Is it that good?”
(Hamada): “Yeah, to the point that he’s probably the best cook in the world.”

Old Riding Author Lunatic Asylum
Just off the A19, in the dark, incomprehensible lands known as Yorkshire, there lies a town. A town where shadow-silent alleys glint with the secret hunger of knives. Where blood soaks the chipboard window shutters of forsaken terraces stretching off into the night. Where the smog-choked air rattles with the depraved laughter echoing out from clubs that can only generously be described as post-apocalyptic. Well, that’s Middlesbrough. But down the A19 a bit (an impossibly long way down, actually) there lies another town: Raughnen, in the ancient, forgotten Old Riding. It is an equal match in muggery and thuggery alike. It also has magic spells and pointy wizard hats. And now, across the miles and across all sensibilities, a pretty nasty power (a magic one) calls out for its pretty nasty counterpart (a decidedly unmagic one): a proper sound Boro lad. Nothing good can come of it. This is a collection of one novella and four connected short stories: I. A Yorkshire Summoning II. Old Riding Day Trip (the novella) III. Heaven is a Parmo IV. Death on the 66 V. Death on the 257 In total, this comprises 34 chapters totalling around 35,000 words, so try not to worry. It will be over relatively quickly. There are three more short stories with more tenuous links to the core collection: Rush, Paper Round and Scenario 79: Sausage Fingers, all of which can be found in my collection Short Records of Misadventure. Reading these may allow you to make more sense of certain parts of the story, if any sense is to be made at all. NOTE: There are instances of prejudice and discrimination within these stories, including elements of sexism and ageism, which are purely the thoughts and actions of the characters involved and which certainly do not reflect my own views on these matters. ANOTHER NOTE; A WARNING, PERHAPS: This can get a bit weird. In less than 150 pages, we have four viewpoints, first and third person narratives, and a completely disjointed plot with lots of gaps, dead ends and no real resolution. Also ZERO lunatic asylums. It's all a bit odd. If that sort of thing isn't your cup of tea, which it most likely isn't, it might be best to move on now.
