[Eng] Abandoned [AC FF] ✔

Epilogue

Birds chirping became accompaniment music for Sanya, my eldest daughter, who was practicing spirit dances in front of a large tree with her mother. Several times she was scolded by Tanya when she fell and made a wrong step.

Not far from them, Taeyang practiced wooden sword. He will enter the Daekan junior training next month. I taught him the basics of martial arts so that he could protect himself. And he is very fast in mastering many moves. No wonder, his biological father was the best Daekan, his mother also was quite adept at martial arts. He was born as a knight.

That boy is eleven years old now. We finally decided to tell the truth about his biological parents a year ago. We do not want him to hear it from other people, especially if there are people who intend to use him for the sake of power.

"No wonder, I always feel goosebumps every time just alone with you, Bro," he said at that time.

"I'm sorry, Taeyang. I hope you will forgive me."

He did not immediately answer my apology. He even silenced me for some days, even though we rarely talked. Tanya repeatedly persuaded him to forgive me. She was worried Taeyang would harbor hatred and avenge on me one day later. But I stopped Tanya, leaving Taeyang to decide for himself, whether he would forgive me or not.

And one day, he finally approached me, "I wonder, why did you let me live?"

I stroked his hair that began to long, "you look like me."

Tagon killed my biological father, but let me live, even became his adopted son. I never knew why he did it. Maybe it's because I also an Igutu like him, so he thinks we're have the same fate? I don't know, he never explained anything about it. In his last breath, he only said that he loved me sincerely like his own son.

But I think I know the answer now. Just like Tagon, I also killed Taeyang's biological parents. Although I initially let him live at the request of Tanya, but the longer I was more unable to kill him. This boy is too lovable to be killed.

The cries of one of my twin sons returned my mind which had floated. I looked from the terrace of my tree house. They used to play stone throwing cheerfully, but now they are fighting. I'm not surprised, they do fight a lot, but later they will make up again like nothing ever happened.

"Hey, don't fight!" I scolded from above.

"Soohyuk threw a stone at me, Dad," reported Soohyun, sobbing.

"I told you, I didn't mean it," said Soohyuk.

Taeyang approached them, "Boys, how about we look for rabbits in the forest?"

"Yes, yes, we want!!!" They exclaim cheerfully.

See, they seem to forget that they are fighting. Thanks to the nice uncle.

"Tati ... (daddy)" I turned to my youngest daughter who was walking towards the bookshelf. I carried her, showed her my book collection.

"What book do you want to read, Sanna?"

She pointed to a book called "War Strategies". I burst out my laughter.

"This one, okay," I picked up a fairy tale book, then read it to her who was already in my lap. She hasn't reached two years old, but she has taken an interest in books. She looks like me.

Actually I was traumatized to have another child after feeling the unbearable pain while Tanya giving birth to Sanya. But I cannot block the blessings given by the Gods. There is no other way but to enjoy the pain. I'm grateful Tanya can share her pain with me. Not all men can feel it. I feel special.

♡♡♡

Seven years have passed after I dedicated my throne to Eunseom. During the seven years he reigned, Arthdal ​​was truly blessed with abundance. The people live in peace and prosperity. He also cooperated with neighboring countries. It seems to be true, he is the reincarnation of the real Aramun Haeseulla, even though he himself doesn't really believe that.

The throne that I have been eyeing for a long time, when I succeed in getting it, I let it go. But I do not regret that decision. Sitting in that chair made me never live quietly. I have trouble sleeping every night because of feelings of insecurity, afraid that one day I will be abandoned again. I suspect everyone, including my own lovely wife. The tragedy of seven years ago gave me a very valuable lesson. Tanya taught me many things, about love, about trust, about forgiveness. How lucky I am to have her in my life.

Now my family and I live in the Great Temple. Tanya still serves as the Highest Priestess, with Sanya being crowned as her successor. I run the Love House, an orphanage that I built during my reign. I made schools and teach children various sciences.

So far, my life has been happy and calm with my little family.

Maybe I can't have the whole world, but I have my little world. My family.

Maybe I'm not a good leader for a big country, but I can be a leader for my family to abundance of happiness.
