I’m Searching for the Villainous Dad’s Memories!

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

The Worst Troublemaker in History, a Mad Dog. Or, perhaps, a cursed soul.

The notorious rascal of the North, Kalec Wintervald, is back!

But with no recollection of the past five years when he mysteriously disappeared.

“I’ve told you several times that I don’t remember anything about the time I was missing. Now get lost.”

So no one, not even himself, dared to imagine…

“Oh my, my daughter is so pretty, so admirable. Daddy is just a fool who only knows his daughter~”

That during the five years he was missing, he had been raising a child—not even his own—as if he were a simple villager in a remote mountain valley!

And in a ridiculously doting, if not overly sentimental, manner!

“Daddy! I’m back!”

“Who are you?”

The Duke, Kalec Wintervald, looked down at me threateningly as I tightly hugged his leg.

The sight made my heart ache.

‘Daddy really has forgotten about me…’

But there was no time to feel sad about it for long.

I, Lirin Wintervald, at the age of 8!

It’s time to carry out my plan to prevent the sad future I saw in my dream for Daddy!

“I’ll use my ability to talk to plants to solve the duchy’s sacred beast problem, and save the former Duke from a terrible accident!”

“Grandma, thank you for bringing me to the mansion.”

“Grandpa, will you keep playing with me from now on?”

Saving the duchy is a busy task!

But the most important thing is to restore Daddy’s memories.

However, this journey is far from easy.

“It’s no use. There’s nothing anywhere that can bring back Daddy’s memories…”

Tears welled up in fear that Daddy might never believe me.

At that moment, the always cold Daddy gently cupped my cheeks and lifted them as he spoke.

“Why wouldn’t there be? Then why did you come to me?”

Can Lirin truly restore her villainous father’s memories and reach a happy ending?

If you're a fan of childcare and parenting novels, this is for you! The interactions between the baby FL and her amnesiac dad are heartwarming and hilarious. This novel also has family healing. The novel is still ongoing, and we still don't know how it will develop so I'm rating it 4⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars for now. As for the unofficial translation, I rate it a 2 or 3. I've read the 3 chapters of the unofficial translation. Although I'm glad that it had been picked up, I hope they'd be consistent with the spelling they use for the names.
Spoiler

When the duke went hiding for 5 years, he shortened his name, Kalec Winterwald, into Alec Wald as his fake name, and gave his adopted daughter and son the names Lirin Wald and Theo Wald. So if you use a different spelling, like Wintervalt for example, then atleast be consistent about it. Use Valt as the shortened name.

This novel is definitely a good read for those who are looking for light reads.
Spoiler

It has isekai element too. The isekai plot is not introduced at the beginning of the novel like most isekai's do. Like she did not wake up looking at an unfamiliar ceiling or that she got hit by a truck, and other cliche isekai novels introductions you know 😂It was introduced much much later, but the MC feels detached from her past life. She feels like she just watched somebody elses life that is not her own.

I absolutely love this novel. A perfect read for childcare genre lover. The bond between Kalek (The Duke) and Lirin (The daughter) is so heart warming and perfect.

Spoiler

The MC loves her father the most because he was his only family who raised her alone and loved her purely.

About The dad's memories

Spoiler

They will return in chapter 171.

About Kalek Wintervalt

Spoiler

He found Lirin (the mc) when he checked the magic tower and found out that she was experimented on. He had no intention of taking her as his daughter initially but once he took her with him thinking that he will take her to an orphanage, he couldn't do it as he started loving her.

He changed his personality 360° as he didn't wanted Lirin to grow up like her cold and stoic. This was the reason why he became Alec Valt.

How the Duke lost his memory

Spoiler

In the initial chapters it was stated that Kalek lost his memories in an accident at the great labyrinth but it was later revealed in the novel that Kalek himself decided to erase his memories in order to protect his daughter 😭 and decided to never meet her again. (I cried at this part.)

[collapse]

For me the novel was perfect in the first part but...

Spoiler

In the second part when it took a ten year leap I hated the plot because Lirin decided to leave the Wintervalt estate and decided to live with her teacher in the lepi village and made the whole world forget about her (yeah it includes her whole family except her dad) he did not forget about her instantly unlike others but in some years due to the strong magic he also forget about her (again).

I hated this part because it madee cry a lot.

I wanted Lirin to live with her dad and her family but she couldn't stay with them even for a year. And yeah it was because I love Kalek and couldn't bear to see him like that.

Like imagine thinking about your only daughter and not able to even meet her properly and have no one to talk about her because no one remembers her.

[collapse]

So yeah I dropped it after chapter 184 because for me it ended when the Duke's memories returns.

But 100% recommended till chapter 184 coz I love the interactions between Kalek and Lirin and the storyline was perfect.
