A Stir Caused by a Child
"Hmm..."
Griseo held a paintbrush in her hand, staring at the silver-haired little girl in front of her with longing eyes, lost in thought. She had only been away from Brother Yu Feng for less than a short time, so why did Brother Yu Feng suddenly have a daughter?
Brother Yu Feng already had a sister Astaroth by his side, the Present he has another daughter. Since I haven't seen Brother Yu Feng so long, will his affection for me decrease even further?
She glanced again at Astaroth, who had come over to read fairy tales to Lilim. Astaroth had the Present been promoted to aunt. When Zhu Yufeng was busy with missions or other matters, Astaroth would take care of the child. Since Astaroth had mastered her powers, she no longer needed Zhu Yufeng to Fire Moth.
In less than a month, it feels like some things have changed a little too fast... If that's the case, will Brother Yu Feng spend more time with Lilim like Mom and Dad do in the future?
At this moment, Zhu Yufeng did not go on a mission, but sat at a table not far away chatting with Hen.
"When I was transferred back to the Mu Continent, I never imagined that I would be able to come back one day." Hen looked at the children here and said with some emotion, "I never imagined that one day, Mu Continent would sink."
"Life is unpredictable. Just like I never imagined I'd suddenly have a daughter." Zhu Yufeng smiled helplessly. What could he do now but accept it? Lilim was theoretically less than three months old, but her physical age was already four. And she learned things very quickly, just like her mother, Lilith ...
I just hope she didn't inherit any of Lilith's scum.
"This child is very smart. To this the Present, I still don't understand why she called me 'Dad' the first time we met." Zhu Yufeng shifted his gaze to Lilim. "The first time I met Lilith, her first words were 'Mom'."
"Perhaps, besides the natural Herrscher given to her by her mother, the Herrscher of Reason Herrscher Core also plays a role," Hen said. "After all, the Herrscher of Reason's ability is to deconstruct everything, and this aspect may also be a factor that makes Lilim's understanding of some things much stronger than that of normal children of the same age."
"A child of the same age... Speaking of age, according to the experimental records, she is actually only three months old." Zhu Yufeng sighed softly. In fact, he was also a little unsure how to get along with his child. Although he had already acknowledged Lilim as his daughter, how to plan her education and how to arrange the time he spent with her were other questions as well.
"Sigh..." Hen sighed deeply, then asked, "This child is currently said to be your adopted daughter within the Fire Moth, but... there must be quite a few people who know that she is your and Lilith's daughter, right? They..."
"It's okay, after all, those who know are still a minority." Zhu Yufeng rolled her eyes, somewhat speechless. "And... The Present, everyone's scrambling to take care of the kids..."
Hen chuckled somewhat teasingly and joked, "Don't tell me that Nahamah and Abaddon got into a fight at the training grounds a while ago, and whoever won ended up taking care of the kids?"
"That's exactly what they thought," Zhu Yufeng shrugged. "But after Astaroth slapped them, they shut up."
"Little Astaroth is already considered one of the top-tier Fusion Warrior, right?" Hen said somewhat embarrassedly. "And judging from her appearance, this child has indeed identified herself as her aunt."
Because she's his aunt, Nahamah and Abaddon didn't dare fight back even when they were beaten up.
Zhu Yufeng picked up the drink beside him, took a sip, and thought to himself.
When she told Astaroth that she was going to be an aunt, Astaroth was stunned for a while, and then went to confirm several times what aunt meant. Although Astaroth still didn't like Lilith very much, Astaroth cared a lot about Lilim.
Regarding the placement of Lilim the Fire Moth, this little girl really likes to stick to me and her mother Lilith during her first period in the area, and even wants to sleep with both of them at night... Is this the legendary motherly love that depends on her child?
Anyway, Elysia's face darkened, and as for Lilith... she didn't seem happy either, probably because Lilim liked to sleep in the middle, and she couldn't get close to her. In Lilith's words, "She's right next to me, but I can't touch her!"
Even so, you've still beaten Elysia by a huge margin!
Because more and more people were moving into the room, he had the Present choice but to move out of the soldiers' dormitory and go directly to the villa that Nahamah had funded to build for him.
As for the child's identity, it cannot be revealed to others at the moment, since Mu Continent's research is anything but honorable.
Then there's the issue of his relationship with Lilith. Since Lilim is indeed his and Lilith's daughter, Nahamah and Kevin both suggested that he and Lilith should just admit their relationship directly, and when they raise the child, they could say to the outside world that she is adopted.
The reasonable suggestion is that after that, Nahamah was beaten up by Xila. Kevin is okay, the Present he is invincible with his Heavenfire. It's just a pity that I don't know what Vill-V said to Mei. Mei, whose cooking skills were saved by Lilith, started thinking about whether she should make some special nutritious meals for Kevin.
And so, the invincible Kevin fell again.
Mei's carefully prepared "dark cuisine" didn't deal magic or physical damage; it dealt true damage that ignored all defenses...
Neither mental attacks nor Herrscher powers could effectively harm Kevin, but Mei's nutritious meals... God-killing cuisine is no joke. Even the Herrscher couldn't defeat Kevin, the Present's still lying there...
At least for the sake of stability in the Fire Moth, Zhu Yufeng ultimately didn't do that. Not long after, Elysia also moved into the villa, followed by Mobius, Vill-V, Xila... In the end, everyone moved into the villa, just like a replica of the Elysian Realm, except this time there were Thirteen Fallen Angels. Griseo, on the other hand, hadn't moved in yet, but continued to live with her mother. Of course, Flame-Chasers also brought his family, such as Disaster, Ling, and Mei.
"Speaking of which, this is also the first time Griseo has seen Lilim." Hen rested his chin on his hands and pondered, "Let me think, Astaroth is Griseo's friend of similar age and also Lilim's aunt, so shouldn't Lilim call Griseo 'Auntie'?"
"While there's nothing wrong with saying it that way, are you sure you want Lilim to call her that?" Zhu Yufeng said jokingly. He remembered that Lilith had indeed tried to teach Lilim to call Elysia sister" before. Everyone else was wondering when Lilith had changed her personality or when she had become so close to Elysia, but Elysia quickly realized what was going on.
Lilith is setting her up again!
She's Lilim's older sister, so what is Lilith to her?!
First she tried to take advantage of me so I would call her "sister," The Present wants to be more than just "sister" and wants to be my "mother," right?
Ordinary people wouldn't see anything wrong with it. If Lilith didn't trick people, she wouldn't be Lilith. After that Lilith also said to Elysia straightforwardly, "Look, I've already made Lilim call you sister, so it's not too much for you to call me mom, right? If you think the word 'mom' is too embarrassing, you can call me auntie, no problem, I don't mind."
Even if Lilith were to call her "Auntie," given the premise that Lilim is Zhu Yufeng and Lilith's daughter, that very act would instantly place her a generation below them...
In short, it's generally correct to assume the worst about Lilith's thoughts; you might even be able to imagine things she's thinking about that you can't even imagine with the worst possible intentions.
However, Mobius accepted Lilim calling her "Auntie" quite readily... perhaps because she was already used to being called that by Griseo...
So Griseo is actually of the same generation as Lilim now?
After thinking for a moment, Hen realized that it didn't seem quite right for Lilim to call Griseo" Auntie. "Griseo was only nine years old. So, it seemed more appropriate to call her "Sister." Even though it might be a generation younger, it wouldn't really matter.
Griseo shifted her gaze to Hen, feeling as if her own father had just made her feel inferior in terms of seniority.
"Where is my niece? Where is my niece?!"
A somewhat impatient voice rang out. Zhu Yufeng recognized the voice and looked over. A silver-haired girl hurriedly ran over. After glancing at him, she took out her phone and looked at it, seemingly comparing it to Lilim, who was reading a storybook with Astaroth.
Lilim noticed the movement and looked up at the blue-eyed girl. Astaroth frowned. If she remembered correctly, this person should be Lilith's younger brother. She had seen him a few times from afar before. How come he looks completely different from what she remembered?
Zhu Yufeng: "..."
He remembered that Lilith's younger brother always acted arrogantly whenever they met, right? Or was Lilith right? Was Davien a typical tsundere siscon who said one thing but did another?
"Ahem..." Davien straightened his tie, forcing himself to adopt a cool and aloof demeanor. He took out a beautifully wrapped storybook from his briefcase and handed it to Lilim, saying, "Um... Lilim, this is a gift from your uncle. I came in a bit of a hurry, so I could only bring one book like this."
Lilim looked at Zhu Yufeng, Zhu Yufeng could only nod helplessly. Then, Lilim thoughtfully took the storybook from Davien and said, "Thank you, Uncle."
"Ahem!" Davien coughed a few more times, then said in a serious tone, "What's wrong with that? Uncle still thinks this gift isn't perfect enough. Lilim, what do you like? Uncle will see if he can make it."
Even if we can't make it, we have to find a way to make it!
Look, this is my sister's daughter. Look at her eyebrows and eyes, and how intelligent she is. She truly deserves to be my sister's daughter!
Hen blinked blankly for a moment, then looked at Zhu Yufeng and said, "This is... Lilith's younger brother?"
"Indeed." Zhu Yufeng sighed softly. "He is Fire Moth's partner in Europe. He has also contributed to some of the propaganda and stabilization efforts in European society. Regarding Lilim, he certainly has the right to know the general situation. We only told him about it not long ago."
It seems that Davien just received the news and flew to Fire Moth overnight to see his niece...
Did Davien come alone? Zhu Yufeng wondered as he looked at where Davien had come from. Sure enough, Lilith and her sister Gianna were also there.
Lilith waved to him, then walked over and said, "Sigh, Davien, he's so old and still hasn't learned to be more mature. He came straight here shortly after getting off the plane. He said it was easy to build up a good uncle image, but before he came, he took several photos of how to be a good uncle."
It's typical tsundere behavior, I get it, I get it...
Zhu Yufeng smiled helplessly, then looked at Lilith's Sister, Gianna. The girl's gaze was fixed on Davien, who was constantly trying to chat with his niece, before finally circling around and landing on herself. Gianna smiled and said, "Is that your sister's daughter? She's so pretty, just like her sister."
Gianna knew far less than Davien; they only told Gianna that she was Lilith and Zhu Yufeng's daughter, but for certain reasons, they couldn't say more.
"Yes, Lilith has a younger brother and a younger sister." Hen stroked his chin, thinking helplessly, "This seems even worse. I almost forgot that Lilith has family members to help her. It seems that Elysia can't find any brothers or sisters to assist her."
No way, the Aifeng Party will never give up! Even with this slight setback, he still believes that Elysia can turn the tables!
Where is Elysia right now?
Elysia is currently having a tea party with Eden and the others. Before this, Lilith had told her that Lilith's brother, Davien, would be coming to see his niece tomorrow. Elysia had no interest in that, but she was tricked by Lilith again.
"What are those guys on the Mu Continent doing? They've made that woman sleep with that blockhead every day!" Seele said, somewhat exasperated. "It's already sunk, but before it sinks, they have to pull all this fancy stuff!"
"To correct you, Lilith isn't even satisfied with just sleeping with Maple," Michael calmly added while sipping his tea.
Seele looked at Michael and said, "You're so calm. I'd like to hear what you have to say."
Michael shrugged. "What else can we do but accept it? Anyway, Lilim is there, Lilith can't do anything she wants. So she might as well relax. For Lilith, being able to see but not touch is what makes her most dissatisfied."
"So, does that mean we can't even see each other?" Seele retorted.
Eden sighed softly, pondering how to help Elysia. Then, Eden turned his gaze to Elysia, Elysia expression was much better than before, or rather, she seemed to be thinking about something.
