Chapter 993 Then… Can I Call You Big Sister?

“A portrait of your father?!”

Elizabeth turned around in an instant. She looked at the rolled-up paper in Miya’s hand doubtfully.

“Mm-hm. Didn’t I tell you last night that our boss drew a portrait for an old grandpa of his missing son, and it was used for the missing-person notice? This morning, the child who was lost for 25 years came to Mamy Restaurant and reunited with his father. My gosh, he really looked exactly like what Boss drew!” Yabemiya nodded.

She waved the portrait in her hand excitedly, and continued, “Then I asked Boss to help me draw a portrait of my father. Although I’ve never met him, and only know what he looked like based on my mother’s descriptions, I feel that what Boss drew is my father!”

Elizabeth looked at an excited Yabemiya with some mixed emotions, and said, “Do you really want to know what he looks like so badly?”

“Of course! I really want to know what he looks like. I even often dream of him, but every time I wake up, I forget what he looks like.” Yabemiya nodded and was a little dejected, but she became happy again very quickly, and said, “But now I know. He definitely looks like this. Let me show you.”

As she said that, Yabemiya untied a thin string on the portrait and unrolled it slowly.

An awe-inspiring man in a gold and silver armor, with one silver and one gold dragon horn on his head appeared in the portrait.

“Father…” When she saw the person in the portrait, Elizabeth blanked out for a moment. After not seeing him for three years, the image of him in her memory was already beginning to get blurry. After she saw the portrait, it became clear instantly.

However, she was quickly doubtful. Even she was unable to draw her father’s portrait so vividly, but Miya was actually able to get such a portrait from Mag. Could he really have drawn this portrait based on what Miya had told him?

Of course, what made her more unsettled was that from this moment on, it would mean that Miya knew what her father looked like.

That pair of gold and silver horns was rather well-known in the Norland Continent.

“Miss Elizabeth, isn’t my father very handsome? I intend to look for him the moment I’ve saved up enough money. Or, I could take this portrait and ask any giant dragon customers if they know my father in the future. I believe I would be able to find him one day.” Yabemiya smiled hopefully.

“You want to look for him?” Elizabeth felt strange seeing her smile. If Miya really did that, her identity would be exposed. Their father had way more enemies than friends.

Miya could also feel the change in Elizabeth’s mood. She curiously asked, “Miss Elizabeth, do you know my father?”

Elizabeth looked at Yabemiya silently for a long while before nodding. “I do.”

“Really?!” Yabemiya’s eyes lit up. Her voice trembled a little as she gripped Elizabeth’s hand, and she said in surprise, “You… You really know my father? Do you know who he is? And where he is now?”

It had been more than 10 years. It was the first time she knew what her father looked like, but she did not expect to be able to get news of him so quickly. It even felt surreal.

“Because he is also my father.” Elizabeth tried to control herself, but there was still a slight tremble in her voice.

“You…” Yabemiya was stunned. She blinked as she watched Elizabeth and still felt as though she had heard her wrongly. She asked, “Miss Elizabeth, what… what did you just say?”

“He is your father, and also my father,” Elizabeth answered.

“How… How can this be possible?” Yabemiya was finally certain that she did not hear wrongly. She took two steps back and looked at Elizabeth with increasing disbelief. How could her father be Miss Elizabeth’s father!?

“His name is Rankster. He is the chief of the Frost Dragon tribe and a very powerful giant dragon. I am Elizabeth, Rankster’s daughter, and also a frost dragon.” Elizabeth tried to speak calmly as she looked at Yabemiya.

Yabemiya opened her mouth, but did not say anything as she looked at Elizabeth for a very long time. Her mind was in a mess, and Elizabeth’s words kept echoing inside.

“Did you… already know?” Yabemiya asked as she looked straight at Elizabeth after a while.

“I’m sorry, I had to keep this from you because of various reasons.” Elizabeth nodded. She was very apologetic. However, she quickly put on a serious expression, and said, “But I have to tell you that Father has a lot of enemies. If others find out about your identity, you will be in great danger.”

Yabemiya’s eyes reddened. As she got choked up with emotions, she said, “Where is he? Why hasn’t he come even once after so many years? He promised my mother that he would come, but did not even come to see her for the last time.”

“I don’t know. They said that he is already dead.” Elizabeth shook her head. She did not tell her that he was not there when her mother passed away as well.

“Dead?” Yabemiya was shocked. Her eyes lost color and her body shook as though she was almost unable to stay upright.

Elizabeth held Yabemiya’s shoulder, and gently said, “That’s just what they said. No one has seen his corpse. I feel that he’s just trapped in some place.”

Yabemiya looked at Elizabeth when she felt the warmth on her shoulders. She pounced right into her embrace and started crying in an instant.

Elizabeth stiffened slightly. Her heart softened immediately when she saw Miya, who was shaking and crying in her embrace. She lifted her hand and placed it gently on her back, comforting her.

She did not know how she should comfort Miya, because she had never been comforted before.

However, she wanted to bring some warmth to Miya to let her know that at least she was there.

“Then… can I call you ‘big sister’?” Miya asked softly after crying in Elizabeth’s embrace for a long time and soaking her shirt.

The term “big sister” caught Elizabeth a little off-guard. However, when she saw how pitiful Yabemiya looked, she could not bring herself to reject her. She thought for a while and nodded, but quickly added, “You can only do so when there’s no one else around.”

“Mm-hm, mm-hm.” Yabemiya nodded her head hard and smiled.

Ever since her mother had passed away, she had never felt an embrace as warm and dependable.

It was the first time that she found out that other than her father, she still had a sister in this world.
