I BECAME THE GRAND DUKE PRECIOUS DAUGHTER: CHAPTER 41 - No Longer A fake Princess (COMEBACK FROM HIATUS)
"Ah..."
Noah held a spoon, up to her mouth and Aria said "Ah"
Noah was feeding his daughter, Aria. Aria was blushing out of embarrassment...
This is the first time ever, someone... Took care of her, like a child. The first time somebody, actually... Felt... Love for her...
In the other hand noah was so happy that he has daughter and he promise to live happily with her daughter aria forever
In the other hand... Noah... Was also happy, because he now had a daughter... A child of his own... For the first time. In a very long time...
"A-Aria... I wish... We can bond together in this lifetime... And... I will... Never, let you go... Again, I almost lost you... "
His voice was soft and gentle... As he stroked her head. Like a loving father would do...
"Aria, filled with determination, exclaimed, "Dad... I promise I'll spend as much time as possible with you, and I don't ever want to be separated from you again!" She wrapped her arms tightly around Noah, hoping to reassure him with her embrace.
Noah, touched by his daughter's heartfelt words, responded,
"You know what, Aria? Your dad is truly overjoyed to have a daughter as amazing as you."
As those words sank in, Aria's face lit up with a radiant smile, showing just how much those words meant to her.
"Mee too dad..."
Few days Later~~~
In Noah's office, a few days had passed since he learned the truth about his daughter. From the look on his face, it was evident that he was deep in thought. He had been trying to understand how Aria had met her demise in her previous seven lives.
At the same time, Noah couldn't help but wonder how Larriet had managed to make a deal with the god, selling her soul. The most puzzling part was why the seemingly heartless god had accepted her conditions.
These questions occupied Noah's mind, as he sought to unravel the mysteries behind Aria's past lives and the enigmatic dealings between Larriet and the god. In his pursuit of the truth, Noah realized that he needed to dig deeper and gather more information to find the answers he was looking for.
As Noah processed the information he know the god's anger towards them due to his own bloodline being that of a traitor, and the special status bestowed upon Larriet as a precious creation of the god, a fiery determination consumed him. "I must confront that devil instead," he exclaimed, standing up abruptly and grabbing his cloak. His burning desire to meet the elusive god surged within him, compelling him to act immediately.
However, as Noah prepared to set off, he couldn't shake off the memory of the contract. Its terms lingered in his mind, reminding him of the potential consequences of defying its rules. Contemplation replaced his initial impulse, as he weighed the risks and benefits of breaching the contract.
“You Can only go to the hell when you're now ready to take my place and destroy the world with me... ”
Noah was taken aback by the words of the contract, revealing the daunting condition required to enter the realm of hell. Frustration overwhelmed him as he expressed his annoyance loudly, questioning the cruelty of the world he found himself in. He let out a sigh and ran his hand through his hair, his agitation plain to see.
As he pondered the situation, his attention was caught by a book that Aria had been reading, Noah reached for the book, determined to uncover any concealed information that could provide insight into their predicament.
There was a hidden legend within the book. It recounted the creation of the world, where only Kairos, the one and only god, possessed power. However, Kairos had also created two gods who were dear to him.
These two gods possessed formidable divinity akin to Kairos himself, with one having beautiful black hair and the other adorned with striking silver strands. Kairos believed that these two gods held the key to bringing peace and acting as saviors for humanity.
But then everything changed when the The black God committed the crime of murder... Because of love he killed countless of others... Because he wanted to save the love of his life.
There was no one who was like his love he has to protect her...
"Why would you kill someone... Because of love!?"
But then, the powerful Kairos... Chose to curse the black God... And punish him for the crime of murder because of love...
"You will suffer for all your sins... For your crime, you have killed too many.... From now on, you are no longer... A God... From the heavens, you have fallen..."
The god had taken away his sight for his sin... He will suffer now... And forever... Alone...
The black God suffered... For the sin of killing, of if love
The powerful Kairos... Abandoned him for his only sin... That he committed...
Because of love
He suffered... The pain, the curse... And everything
He suffered in the world... Which is, not for him
Despair without hope the black god suffer and cried miserable while he was hugging his lover corpse he want a revenge A painful revenge to the god who abandoned him...
But then suddenly the black magic appeared infront of him...
The black God, heard a voice...
The voice sounded... Mysterious and seductive...
"...Ah, Indeed, you are the God's child. The one you thought will not betray you, will betray you, in the end. Even your sins are like... Ashes..."
The magic spoke to the black God... Trying to call him... Trying to... Get, the black God... On it's side... To get his... Attention...
“Tell Me the cursed Abandoned child by god... Do you wish for revenge? ”
It's a very hard request for a single God to actually, come out, in the end... And help you... But he had... Desperately... Wanted... Revenge...
"Yes, I, want it... I want to destroy the God... I want to destroy... The creation of Keiros... I have the desire..."
He wanted a Destruction He wanted to Destroy all of the creation that the gods have made...
Everything... That Kairos has created that he had created...
Kairos Will be destroyed
“Hahahah!!! Oh the fallen God from heaven I will give you the blessings of destruction...!!! I wish all of your desires To be granted ~!”
Because of that, the black God... Is now officially one of the devil's from hell, and the owner of destruction...

( The Marquis Territory )
The night, was dark...
At the middle of the night, the Marquis... Received a letter. The color was black, and with a stamp, of the Valentine family...
He opened the letter... As he could see... It was... From Aria...
{ Dear Marquis Atlante }

I delivered this letter because I have something want to talk about you, so i hope you can visit me to the duke territory as my special guess.
I will wait for you to come.
Sincerely
Aria
As he finished reading the letter, he, sighed with a tired expression...
He... Thought, did Aria... Want him... To visit her for a request?
He looked at the picture, with the frame in hand of his dead sister... Lariette...
In a 15th birthday picture, he had of her... It was, a very old picture. But it was very beautiful... With a smile on her face, like she is enjoying, her own... Birthday...
"I, have no choice but come... " He said, with a whisper...
He continued... To stare at the... Frame... Of her little sister 15th birthday...

<Valentine Territory>
Aria asked her father "Dad Do you think the marquis will, accept my invitation?"
Aria Was wearing a gorgeous pink dress Her hair was tied with Braid. Her red eyes Had gone back from, the foggy black, to reddish shade...
"Why would he, decline, my daughter's invitation?" He saidWith a threatening and dominant tone... "If he declines I will kill, him. "
She looked at her father... Looking down at her.
She was wondering if he was joking, or serious...
All she said was, "Oh don't joke... Like that..."
Noah Had been Silent, from the beginning, when he had heard about Aria... Inviting... The Marquis...
"Do you, really want to meet your mother's family?" Noah looked at his only daughter...
Noah seemed nervous about the upcoming events...
Noah stroked his daughter's hair... And he smiled. Gently...
"I'm sure that Lariette's parents would be overjoyed if they found out that she had a daughter after all this time. They would be so happy to meet you, Aria."
Noah smiled warmly at Aria and rubbed her hair gently, trying to offer her some comfort.
"I doubt they'll be anything but pleased to see you."
Ari's worries faded away, and a bright smile spread across her face as she spoke to Noah. "If they don't like me, that's okay. I have you, Dad."
Just then, Dana and Henry peek out from behind the doorway with happy expressions on their faces, clearly looking forward to meeting Aria.
Dana and Henry were both very excited to meet Aria and were filled with joy just knowing that the Duke finally had a daughter.
"I know right, the lady Aria is so much like the Duke. I'm so proud that he finally found out that he has a daughter" Dana says
Henry agrees with Dana and adds, "It's great to see the Duke's personality come out in Aria. She's a great mix of the Duke and her mother, I can tell."
"Yeah...."
[FLASHBACK]
Lucy, Charlotte, and Joseph all visited Aria, who had been unconscious for two weeks. While they were relieved to see her awake again, they couldn't help but feel worried about her.
"Lady Aria, you've finally woken up. We've been so worried about you," Charlotte said as tears welled up in her eyes. "How are you feeling? We're so happy to see you awake."
Dana took Aria's hand and held it tightly, relieved to see her awake and healthy again.
Henry looked at Aria with concern, noticing the puffiness around her eyes and redness. "Why do your eyes look so puffy and red?" he asked, a touch of worry in his voice.
Aria felt uncomfortable and unsure of how to respond. She wanted to tell Henry and the rest of the people beside her about her relationship with the Duke which is her real father, but just the thought of it made her anxious.
In that moment, Noah noticed Aria's discomfort and stepped in, speaking up for her.
"She's my real daughter. "
/WHOSHHHH~~~~~~~/
As Noah spoke those words, a heavy silence suddenly overtook the room. Everyone's eyes locked on him, confusion and disbelief written on their expressions.
"W-wait, what did you just say?" Henry asked, his eyes widening in surprise.
"You're Aria's real father?" Dana added, her brows knitting in confusion. "How is that even possible?"
Noah looked at everyone with a frustrated expression, realizing that his announcement had created more confusion than he had intended.
"I'll explain it, okay? Just don't stare at me like that. It's creepy."
After the initial shock and confusion, everyone started to slowly comprehend Noah's revelation. Dana was the first to break the silence, running to Aria and wrapping her in a hug.
"Oh my, the Lady Aria was our real Lady this whole time! I'm so happy, I can't believe it because you look just like Lady Lariette!" she said, tears of joy spilling down her cheeks.
Joseph nodded and agreed, his bright smile returning. "I know it, Princess Aria really is like her mother! She's beautiful like Lady Lariette as well!"
Aria felt confused when they called her "Princess Aria". Although it wasn't a totally unusual thing to hear since so many people referred to her as a fake princess. But the title of princess itself was hard to get used to.
She was still getting used to the fact that the Duke was her father. But if that were the case, she was the Duke's only daughter and a princess in her own right.
"Of course, Princess Aria. You're the Duke's only daughter and the only princess of the Valentine Dukedom," Lucy confirms with a nod, understanding Aria's confusion.
"Everyone... "
"Please take care of us Princess Aria Valentine, the only Princess of Valentine dukedom" dana bowed gently as lucy even henry and Joseph
Aria felt overwhelmed by the sudden show of respect and humility from everyone. They all seemed to defer to her, showing her that she was the proper lady and princess that they had believed her to be.
Aria wiped away her tears and nodded at everyone, smiling slightly as a blush of embarrassment spread across her cheeks.
"Thank you, everyone. Please take care of me as well," She said with bright smile across to her cheeks.
"So cheesy, guys," Noah said with a gruff expression, although there was a hint of joy hiding underneath it. As the Duke's only daughter and princess, he was determined to make the Valentine Dukedom one of the strongest there was.
Everyone was surprised to hear Noah's words, but Henry and Lucy's expressions quickly changed from shock to joy. Even Joseph's face lit up with a hopeful look.
"Are you serious, Duke?" Henry asked, his tone filled with gratitude. "You finally make the dukedom rise."
\[FIXED the grammar\]
"Of course, I can't let my daughter live in such a weak and powerless dukedom!" The Duke said with a stern expression. While Valentine was a strong and respected dukedom, he was determined to make it even stronger.
"Dad, but Valentine is already strong, right?" Aria pointed out, a hint of concern in her voice. "Are you sure that's really necessary?"
"I know, but I want it to become stronger and untouchable, so no one can hurt you," the Duke repeated, his determination firm.
\[FIXED the grammar\]
"Of course no one can touch the Duke and the Princess," Lucy explained, "because the Duke is known as a devil villain in this empire."
Noah just laughed at her, clearly not concerned about how others might perceive him. He simply brushed off her worries and continued on with what he wanted to say.
"Surely," he said, "you don't want to die foolishly?"
To Lucy's surprise, Noah's words left her speechless. She hid behind Joseph, too afraid to respond to the Duke's serious tone.
\[FIXED the grammar\]
"Whatever, anyway Aria, I want everyone to know you as the daughter of Larriet and I. No one can touch you, even the Agnes," The Duke told her with a firm expression, his message clear.
Aria nodded in agreement, her words filled with emotion as she spoke. "I accept it. I want everyone to know that you're my father, and I want everyone to know that I'm not a dirty commoner fake princess from Agnes."
The Duke then embraced Aria, proud of his daughter's acceptance of him.
"I will protect you Aria," Noah said with a firm look on his face, his words filled with determination.
Aria then smiled and everyone laughed, happy to see that the Duke was finally acting like a real father to his daughter.
"The Duke has really become the real father," they all said jokingly, although their words held a lot of truth to them.
Noah let out a hearty laugh and waved his hands dismissively. "Get lost!" he said, playfully telling them all to leave him alone with his daughter.
