I'll be the grand duchess

Chapter 41: Benjamin father-daughter

In the busty crowd of Beresford capital city, two certain people in a dark cloaks were walking close to each others. The Benjamin just left the Valentine duchy and now they are returning to the magic tower.

And that's the plan. However, Seraphina Phantom Benjamin has no intention of going home right away.

(K: What a long ass name, I'm congratulating myself for remembering it)

Because they had left the castle without getting to eat the snacks Aphrodite bought, Seraphina is ready to annoy her father for the very first time.

Her father, Cronus, had no ideas of what is running through his deadpanned face daughter's head right now. He was thinking of going on an investigation as soon as possible. There are many suspicions surrounding the saintess.

As he's walking, a small hand tug his cloak to stay still. Since the person was using magic, he immediately knew. Turning around to see who, it was none other than his daughter wearing a deadpanned expression.

He won't admit it out loud but sometimes, he's tend to freak out when he saw his daughter out of blue. It's like someone made a clone of him but female and child.

"What do you want?" Because he's disappeared in almost of Seraphina's life, he has no ideas of what does she want.

Seraphina didn't respond and point her finger to the cafe. Cronus raised his eyebrow, still not understanding what does she mean. Seraphina clicks her tongue and drag Cronus into the shop.

She then proceeded to point at cakes she wanted and order them. Everything happened so fast for Cronus to follow. By the time he caught up, the cashier was asking him to pay.

"Sir, your daughter just left. Please pay for the cake or clean the dishes for a whole month." The cashier was smiling harmlessly. He paid for the cakes which cost surprisingly expensive and left to only see Seraphina unpacked one of the cake box and eat it.

Behind her was a mountain of cake boxes.

"Why are you eating so much? You will get cavity if you ate this much."

"The cavity can be fixed by the dentist. Also, these aren't for me only. I'm giving some of them to mom." Seraphina replied nonchalantly. She was busy shoving cake into her mouth.

At this point, Cronus doesn't know to scold her anymore. Maybe it's because he has never been around her but he won't give up. As her father, he need to scold her.

"If you spend that much money on food, you will never succeed in life."

"I have money too. I don't care about succeed or not."

"Did your mother spoiled you too much now? You shouldn't raise your voice or speak in this kind of manner to your father."

"You don't even know my name till I was 3."

"...."

Seraphina ended the conversation just like that and use her magic to make her boxes float, leaving Cronus alone.

However, Cronus still haven't given up on it. He wasn't going to leave her like this.

"You shouldn't use magic, it will attract enemies."

"They can't see, I'm using invisibility spell right now." Seraphina makes the boxes float even higher to prevent some idiots from hitting them.

"The enemies could still trace your magic."

"Then you deal with it."

"Why should I?" Cronus raised his eyebrow questioning her.

"Isn't that your way to deal with enemies? I thought you are the archmage. You can't even protect your daughter whom you never interact with, that's even pathetic."
