“H… H… Holy f*ck!”
“Where’s the justice?!”
Daniel looked on with wide eyes as the purple kite passed the kites flying at roughly five meters virtually in the blink of an eye. It then continued to rise, passing his own black kite, and it looked as if it were going to rise into infinity and beyond.
“That’s so awesome…”
The little ones looked on with astonishment from down below. They were asking their fathers to overtake the black kite, but they had been completely conquered by the large purple kite—so much so that they couldn’t even muster up any thoughts of trying to outdo it.
“Waaah, Father, our kite has been overtaken. It’s not the highest one, and that kite is prettier than ours, and bigger than ours, and flies higher than ours. Our kite isn’t even good anymore.” Yaya burst into tears as she looked at the purple phoenix kite. She’d been happy and beaming just a moment ago, but that seemed like a distant memory of the past.
“Don’t cry, Yaya, Father will run a bit faster, and our kite will definitely be able to go higher!” Daniel hurriedly consoled Yaya as he accelerated. The fishing line in his hand unfurled relentlessly as their black kite pursued the big purple kite. With that new injection of pace, their kite managed to catch up, and momentarily appeared to be keeping pace with the purple one.
“I believe in you, Father!” Yaya stopped crying, and clenched her little fists as she provided words of encouragement.
“Go, Father! Make it fly higher! Make it fly the highest among all kites!!!” Amy yelled happily as she ran along behind Mag. Even though she wasn’t trying to be better than all of the other little kids, there was always a competitive side to children her age, so she obviously didn’t want to settle for second best.
“Alright.” Mag took a glance at Daniel, and was struck by a sense of nostalgia. He then looked at the girl beside him with her hair organized into a bun, and he suddenly recalled who they were. She was the little girl who had burst into tears at the sight of Amy’s hair.
Daniel was drenched in sweat as he ran with all his might, glowering at Mag with a hostile expression, and Mag suddenly felt a little apologetic toward him. He had already hurt him once, and it appeared that he was doing so again.
However, Mag certainly wasn’t going to concede and let him win. After all, his daughter was still cheering him on from behind, so as a father, he couldn’t let anyone beat their duo.
“Even though we were hurt by that black kite earlier, I really hope that it can win. If the purple kite comes out on top, then we’ll be in a lot of trouble.”
“Yeah, the purple kite is way too beautiful. I wonder if he bought it or made it himself. It would be good if he bought it as that would mean that we could buy one for our kids as well, but if he made it, then we’re screwed.”
All of the parents were staring nervously at the two kites. Even though they weren’t the ones in the competition, the result was still very important to them as it would decide how much torture they would have to withstand later. Where were they going to find a large and beautiful kite that could also fly really high?
“Wow, look! That kite is so pretty, and it’s flying so high!”
“I know, right? I thought it was a really beautiful bird that had just flown over the Aden Square.”
“The black kite beside it is a little ugly, but it’s also flying quite high. It looks like they’re competing with one another.”
The two kites flew higher and higher, attracting the attention of many people outside the square. If a homemade kite could fly to an altitude of three to five meters, it was already considered to be very impressive. A kite made by a skilled craftsman could fly a bit higher, but due to limited materials, there still weren’t all that many that could fly over ten meters in the air.

However, those two kites had both exceeded an altitude of ten meters, and they were still rising. All of the onlookers were both surprised, and filled with a hint of anticipation. They wanted to see which kite could fly higher, and as a result, many people stopped to watch the impromptu contest.
Daniel was reinvigorated by the attention that was being afforded to him. He had expended extensive time and effort in crafting the kite, and he had only just created a scintillating image of himself in Yaya’s heart. As such, he couldn’t give up no matter what. He was almost sprinting, and the line in his hand was about to run out.
Compared to the scrambling Daniel, Mag appeared to be a lot more relaxed and graceful. He had run a few steps to get the kite into the air, but after that, he had merely used the line to make some minor adjustments to the kite in accordance with the direction that the wind was blowing from. Even so, the purple phoenix was still rising very quickly and elegantly.
Amy clapped her little hands together with excitement, and yelled, “Wow, Father is so awesome! Our purple phoenix is the best! Make it fly higher!”
It was her first time flying a kite, and she had always been very envious when seeing other children fly kites with their parents. Now, her father had taken her kite-flying, and their kite was more beautiful, larger, and flew higher than everyone else’s.
However, there was still a black kite that was persevering, and flying at almost the same altitude as the purple phoenix. That made Amy a little nervous. That black kite appeared to be very competitive as well.
Yaya clapped her little hands, and yelled loudly, “Go, Father! Go, Father!”
She looked on at the two competing kites with an anxious expression.
That kite is pretty impressive, but if that’s the extent of what it can do, then it won’t be enough. Mag glanced at the black kite just as a gust of wind blew forth. Thus, he loosened his grip on the line, allowing it to unfurl quickly, and purple phoenix immediately accelerated in its climb. The black kite was left in the dust as Mag’s line was quickly released. 15 meters, 20 meters, 25 meters… It was as if the kite had no upper limit.
“How… How could this be?!” Daniel was completely incredulous at the sight of the purple kite which had almost instantaneously left his far behind.
“Snap!”
Right at that moment, the taut line in Daniel’s hand suddenly snapped in the middle. The black kite was like a bird that had been shot out of the sky, and it came crashing down before plummeting into a bush.
Daniel stared blankly at the snapped line in his hand, while a burst of wistful sighs erupted throughout the square.
Amy threw her arms around Mag’s leg as she yelled, “Our kite is the highest one! Father is the best!”
Mag stopped the kite line from unfurling any further, and picked Amy up from the ground with a smile on his face. Her beaming smile and adoring eyes instilled within him a sense of profound satisfaction. The purple phoenix flew alone in the sky, appearing quite lonely in its invincible reign.
“Waah… Our kite snapped. It’s not the highest one, and it can’t fly anymore…” Yaya faltered momentarily before bursting into tears again.
Daniel hurried over, and gently wiped the tears from her face as he consoled, “Don’t cry, Yaya, I’ll connect the line, and it’ll be able to fly again…”
Yaya pouted as looked up at the big purple kite in the sky, and she said, “But… But… Yaya wants a beautiful kite like that one. It’s so pretty, and large, and can fly so high…”
