Chapter 469 - "See You In Two Years"
Finley almost slipped and fell when Ainsley blurted out things like that.
Make a contract with you? I'm not even a fairy, okay?! I'm not!
Finley instantly broke in cold sweat.
"Uh...emm...I told you, you can only contract a fairy when you are at least 10 years old…"
That's a lie. As long as the child already awakened a special ability, they could make a contract with fairies or elementalist!
Finley thought that Ainsley was as pure as before and didn't know anything about the world out there. A pity, the baby wasn't the same as when she first transmigrated here.
She had learned lots of things!
"But I heald that Finley Walter, the Walter Famiwi heir, was only 6 yeals old when he contwacted a time faiwy…"
Ainsley pouted as she looked at Finley with eyes full of suspicion.
"Just tell me if you don't want to make a contwact with mwe. Hmph!"
When Finley saw Ainsley sulking at him, he felt like banging his head to the floor.
NOOO– I'm sorry, ah! I'm not a fairy...I'm just a human! I can't make a contract with you!
Finley already broke in a cold sweat as he tried to bluff.
"Umm...it's not that I don't want to make a contract with you...but I have these circumstances...I have to go back to the fairy world…"
What he meant by the fairy world was actually just a fairy continent but hidden from the world, unlike the elven continent that one could visit anytime as long as the elves let them enter.
Finley's head was already spinning around as he tried to coax Ainsley.
"Actually, I visit you today to tell you that I will not be coming over for maybe...two years...uh...because my parents are forcing me to go back…"
Finley played the 'victim' card as he lowered his head, looking like a dejected little puppy. When the boy already made that move, how could Ainsley still blame him?
The baby hurriedly approached Finley and tugged on his sleeve.
"Y-you won't visith me anymowe? Two yeals...that's so long…" Ainsley was truly taken aback. Somehow, when Finley said that, she thought she would never see him anymore.
Once the fairy went back to his hometown...would he come back in two years? Doubted. For fairies, two years weren't that long. At least only like two months.
But for humans, two years could change many things.
"...do you really need to gwo? Don't you always come back hwome befowe twis too? W-why aren't you going back to visit me this time?"
Ainsley was so close to hugging Finnie to stop him from going. She had a hunch that...she would never see Finnie anymore…
"Well...I was caught sneaking out of the fairy world...and that's why my parents banned me from going out. For at least two months…"
Finley used his exceptional knowledge about fairies to bluff his way out.
"And two months for the fairies are like two years for you, that's why…" Finley paused before slowly patting Ainsley's head.
"I'm here to say goodbye."
Ainsley felt something just stab her right at that moment. The baby's fingers froze, and her bubbly smile was gone. The mood around her suddenly soured.
"...we haven't mwet for mwonths, and now I won't see you for two yeals…"
Ainsley was already about to bawl her eyes out as she lowered her head, afraid that she would cry if she looked at Finley's emerald eyes.
'You are the first friend I have in this world...and can be said to be my first mentor too aside from the Godfather…'
Ainsley recalled her first time meeting Finley, and she knew that they met by fate.
'But now...I won't see you for two years...or maybe I won't see you forever…'
Ainsley had feelings that Finnie would be gone. Like...she would never see him anymore.
Indeed, because Finnie would be Finley.
Finley, who knew that their last meeting would be at the auction instead before he went to Elton Academy, felt like crying.
….if you know I'm lying to you, I wonder if I'll come back alive…
Finley suddenly regretted playing pranks with the baby and even lied about his race.
He's actually human...but Ainsley would still befriend him even when she knew he's not a fairy, right?
Ah, she wouldn't. If back then Finley told her that he's Finley Walter, the baby would take him as a hostage or kick him out of the library.
There's no room for Finley Walter in her mansion!
And that's only because she's jealous of the guy.
Anyway, Finley couldn't cry over the spilt milk. He knew it's better to say his last goodbye...for now.
"I'm sorry, Ain. I can't be your contracted fairy...because I won't be staying on the human continent...so...we...uh..." Finley continued his speech, still trying to say his last goodbye when Ainsley stopped him.
"Owkay, owkay, I geth it. I know you have to leave soonel or latel…" the baby tried to hold back her tears, at least until Finnie left the room.
"T-twat...just don't folget to visit me aftel two months...owkay?"
Two months for the fairy but two years for her. By then, she would have developed her family and did so many incredible things…
She wished Finnie would see her achievements and say that he's proud of her.
"Take cawe..." Ainsley forced a smile on her face as she braced herself to look at Finley. Tears already started to gather in her eyes as she let go of Finley's sleeve.
"Swee ywou in two yeals."
When Finley saw Ainsley's expression, he bit his lips hard and smiled wryly.
"Yeah. See you...in two years."
