Not That Much of a Beast, and the Beginning of the Turmoil

This is the order of their positions, and they are currently displayed in this room.

Saegusa Mayumi has completely crashed, but William's work continues.

A warm and gentle light emanated from the palm of my hand, and the brown parchment underwent an astonishing transformation.

Saegusa Mayumi's lower abdomen was like a calm surface of water. Papers that had fallen onto the surface for no reason were wetted by it and then slowly sank to the bottom, creating ripples that spread outwards.

"What's this?"

Feeling the warmth surging from her lower abdomen to her limbs, Saegusa Mayumi asked in surprise:

She could clearly feel her body, which had been exhausted from recent anxiety, immediately become healthy again.

"Nothing!"

William slowly opened his closed eyes. His forehead was covered in sweat, his lips were slightly dry, his rosy face was pale, and even his pure white shirt was completely soaked.

"I simply used my own resources to send you and the children a small gift."

William spoke in a deliberately relaxed tone, but in reality, he was far from relaxed.

This was the first time he had lost more than one-fifth of his vital energy in such a short period of time, leaving him in a brief period of weakness.

"Are you really alright?"

Saegusa Mayumi asked again with concern.

"Of course I'm fine, I'm just feeling a little uncomfortable right now."

At times like this, listening to dirty jokes can help distract the girl in front of him; he doesn't want to make her, who is pregnant, feel anxious.

Moreover, he really had nothing wrong with him. Now that all twelve Star Beast were gathered, his recovery speed was far greater than before.

Moreover, even if his strength is severely depleted, there is no one in this world who can defeat him in a single blow.

Just as William was marveling at how well his method worked...

Saegusa Mayumi's expression did change, but it wasn't a change towards shyness.

His expression became calm, even indifferent, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"If you're so uncomfortable holding it in, why don't you go find the girl downstairs? You beast!"

Clang--!

It was as if someone had suddenly swung a sledgehammer and smashed it heavily on William's head, making him feel dizzy.

His speech suddenly became stammering.

"Huh... what are you saying? I... don't understand what you mean!"

Touching the back of his head, William tried his best to hide his inner turmoil.

"Hey, you don't actually think I didn't guess what was cut from your story just now, do you?!"

"If you want to cover it up, at least you should weave a flawless story beforehand!"

Saegusa Mayumi's hand had already climbed onto William's waist without him even realizing it.

"It's over, it's over! This time it's really all over!"

A sorrowful cry arose in William's heart.

Chapter 286 Not So Beastly and at the Beginning of Turmoil

In the early morning, a ray of sunlight streamed into the room through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows.

In a luxurious and enormous room, a man and a woman slept in each other's arms, the slipped sheets revealing their fair skin...

Well, don't get me wrong, William didn't do anything yesterday. The two of them just cuddled and slept together. After all, he wasn't that kind of beast, especially since she was carrying his child!

"Um?"

William frowned slightly, feeling unwell. His sleepiness gradually dissipated, and he finally opened his eyes.

Gently brushing aside a few strands of black hair that fell across his face, William looked at the girl still sleeping in his arms, his eyes filled with boundless tenderness.

"Hmm..."

Seemingly startled by William's actions, Saegusa Mayumi raised her fair hand, rubbed her eyes, and slowly opened her wine-red pupils.

Good morning! What time is it?

Saegusa Mayumi still looked sleepy.

"It's around seven o'clock, I think! What's wrong?"

William is now quite sensitive to time; he can estimate the approximate time simply by sensing sunlight and moonlight, without the aid of machinery.

"Oh no! I need to get up quickly, there's an opening ceremony later."

Upon hearing this, Saegusa Mayumi immediately panicked, her sleepiness vanished instantly, and she hurriedly got out of bed.

The straps of the pink lace nightgown slipped down her shoulders, revealing large expanses of her fair skin and deep cleavage.

What time is it?

William, who had also sat up, casually asked a question while leaning on the bed with one hand.

"Nine o'clock! In the school auditorium."

As Saegusa Mayumi said this, she reached out her small hand and grabbed the hem of her skirt, trying to lift it up and take off her pajamas.

"No need to rush, go take a nap first, I'll go make you breakfast now."

I'll send it to you directly later.

William reached out and pressed down on Saegusa Mayumi's hand, which was about to lift her skirt, while his other hand pressed down on her shoulder, gently placing her back on the bed.

After the girl drifted off to sleep again, he tiptoed off the bed, as if afraid of waking her.
