Men are inferior to women

Arturia stared vigilantly at the white-bearded grandfather who suddenly appeared.

She lived with the hunter grandfather since she was a child, and rarely went down the mountain. After her grandfather passed away, she lived alone. Her personality was full of wildness and she was very wary of strangers.

But the old man with the white beard in front of her somehow made her feel very kind, especially the smell emanating from him was reassuring.

This is also the reason why Artoria is willing to talk to him, if it were someone else, she would have already run away.

"I'm here to take care of you."

Fang Zhou smiled slightly, and looked at Arturia with the eyes of an old father.

Since she was a baby, Fang Zhou has been nourishing her body with true air, providing sufficient nutrition and energy, just like raising a daughter.

Artoria has the keen intuition of a predator, and can feel the kindness and love of Ark.

Her attitude softened a bit, but she still shook her head and said, "I don't need to take care of you."

Fang Zhou was not in a hurry, he just raised his hand, and suddenly a ball of flames appeared from his fingertips.

"Want to learn?"

he asked with a smile.

Arturia's eyes widened in surprise, like a ignorant little beast seeing something it doesn't understand.

"You, why did your hand catch fire?"

"Hey, it's not fire, it's fun stuff."

Ark uses spells to make magic-like tricks, and uses water, fire and light to make beautiful light and shadow special effects.

When Arturia was still a baby, the old hunter went hunting in the mountains, and Ark secretly played in front of her to make her happy.

Now 12 years old, she is still fascinated by the novel trick.

Fang Zhou continued to ask: "Want to learn? If you want to learn, I can teach you."

Artoria's eyes moved up and down with a ball of fire, and she subconsciously said, "I want to."

After speaking, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand, but it was too late.

Fang Zhou laughed and waved directly, and the two of them flew up the mountain like clouds and fog.

Aya is also watching in the dark. She can appear at will when she can't remember things when she was a baby, but not now.

If it is seen and left an impression by the 12-year-old self, then history will be biased.

Fang Zhou didn't think too much, and excitedly pulled Artoria to start teaching.

If it were someone else, Fang Zhou would definitely not be so warm-hearted, but Artoria is different. This is a wife and a daughter, with double identities and double happiness, and she feels very nurturing.

Although Arturia is very wary of strangers, she is still just a 12-year-old girl who has never seen the world, and she agreed to it after being fooled by Ark.

Fang Zhou has already formulated a complete set of teaching courses for her, teaching martial arts and cultivation during the day, and teaching characters and various knowledge at night.

Arturia is very interested in martial arts and cultivation, but not very interested in writing and learning.

But Fang Zhou has a lot of ways to make her submit.

Of course, Fang Zhou did not neglect Aya, who was hiding in the dark, and would take time to accompany her every now and then.

The three of them lived on the mountain like a family of three, but the "mother" and "daughter" had never met each other.

Time flies, and five years are fleeting.

"Merlin! Merlin!"

Accompanied by a cheerful voice, Artoria ran down the mountain, holding a wild boar bigger than herself in both hands.

Compared with five years ago, she has grown from a 12-year-old girl to a beautiful 17-year-old girl.

A three-storey wooden house is built beside a mountain stream, surrounded by flowers and fruit trees.

The door opened, and Ark walked out slowly. Compared with Artoria, Ark hadn't changed at all in the past five years.

Arturia rushed to the front of the wooden house, threw the wild boar on the open space in front of the house, and said to the ark, "Merlin, let's have roast pork chops tonight."

At first she still called Grandpa Fang Zhou Merlin, but later she called Merlin directly, without any manners.

Fang Zhou didn't mind either, and nodded with a smile, walked to a big rock by the stream, sat down, and started to practice silently.

In the past five years, apart from teaching Artoria, Fang Zhou himself has not been idle, and he has been practicing whenever he finds time.

Now his realm has gone from the primordial spirit stage of the soul realm to the yin god stage, and he is only one step away from the final yang god stage.

Artoria got into the wooden house by herself, took out the dagger and began to slice the wild boar.

As night fell, Fang Zhou and Artoria had a meal of grilled wild boar chops, and after eating, they ran into the nearby mountain stream to take a bath, completely ignoring the "grandfather" Fang Zhou.

After taking a bath, reviewing her cultural homework and martial arts, Artoria, who had vented her energy, went into the wooden house, returned to her room, and fell into a deep sleep.

After the little one falls asleep, the big one emerges.

Aya emerged from the night, slowly came to the campfire, and sat beside the ark.

She has lived like this for five years, hiding during the day and only appearing at night.

Fang Zhou looked at Aya's side face and asked, "Is it tomorrow?"

Aya nodded. Historically, tomorrow is the day when Ark drove Artoria down the mountain and let her choose her own destiny.

After getting the answer, Fang Zhou sighed with emotion: "Time flies so fast."

Five years is really fleeting, and Ark has never felt that time flies so fast.

Because raising a daughter is so much fun, watching Arturia grow up day by day, Fang Zhou is full of satisfaction and sense of accomplishment.

I just didn't expect the day of parting to come so soon.

Feeling touched, Fang Zhou couldn't help but reached out and pulled Aya into his arms, stroking her head with one hand: "I raised you, call Dad to listen."

Aya was funny and angry, and reached out to pinch him.

She didn't get up, she continued to lean in Fang Zhou's arms, and suddenly said, "I've been thinking about why you are the savior of this world."

Fang Zhou was slightly taken aback, why did he suddenly bring up this topic?

Since returning to the world of Dark Souls, Aya has never mentioned the fact that Ark is the savior, even he almost ignored it.
