Kafka: Don't You Want a Daughter?

Seeing Ye Yun's flushed face, Klee thought that Kafka was bullying him.

"Wah-wah~ Great Demon King! You're not allowed to bully Brother Ye Yun~ Jumpy Dumpty!"

Standing on her chair, Klee angrily lifted a large Jumpy Dumpty and threw it at Kafka.

Seeing this, Ye Yun leaped forward and caught the flying Jumpy Dumpty in midair.

Putting the Jumpy Dumpty away, Ye Yun let out a long sigh and rubbed Klee's small head.

"Klee, this big sister isn't bullying your Brother Ye Yun."

Hearing this, Klee realized she had wronged Kafka, slid down from the chair, ran over to Kafka, and bowed deeply.

"Big sister, I'm sorry, Klee wronged you~ Can you forgive Klee?"

Klee swayed her little body slightly, looking up at Kafka with aggrieved, wide eyes.

Kafka was instantly charmed by Klee, the corners of her mouth curling upward involuntarily.

"Alright~ Sister forgives you, little one, is your name Klee?"

Seeing Kafka forgive her, Klee smiled happily.

"Mm-hmm, my name is Klee, what about you big sister? What's your name?"

Kafka said with a smile.

"Big sister is called Kafka."

Looking at Kafka, Klee recited Kafka's name syllable by syllable.

"Kar-fu-ka~ Klee knows now, Sister Kafka~"

Ye Yun walked over at that moment and patted Klee's small head.

"Klee, go eat, the food is going to get cold soon."

Hearing this, Klee obediently returned to her seat to continue eating.

Because the dining table was too tall, both Klee and Hook had to stand on their chairs to eat.

If they sat down, the two little ones' eyes would only be level with the tabletop.

"Hook, that sister is called Sister Kafka."

Hook shoveled a mouthful of plain porridge.

"Mmm-hmm-hmm~ Hook knows, Klee, help me pick some pickled cabbage."

Klee helped Hook pick up a chopstick of pickled cabbage.

"Here~ Pickled cabbage."

The two little ones chatted while standing on their chairs and eating.

Kafka looked at the two little ones and smiled knowingly.

Ye Yun noticed that Kafka kept looking at Klee and Hook.

"How is it? Aren't they very cute?"

Kafka nodded noncommittally.

"Mmm~ Quite cute, are they your daughters?"

The water Ye Yun had just swallowed almost sprayed out.

What the heck? His daughters? No matter how you looked at it, he, Hook, and Klee didn't look related, right?

"No, what are you thinking?"

Kafka tucked back her flowing hair and looked at Ye Yun with a smile.

"Oh~ I thought they were your daughters, seeing how well you treat them."

Ye Yun wiped the water droplets from the corner of his mouth.

"Of course I treat them well, raising a daughter is the most comfortable thing in the world, alright?"

Kafka suddenly asked.

"Then, have you ever thought about having a daughter of your own?"

Looking at Kafka, a bold and mischievous thought arose in Ye Yun's mind.

"What? Are you going to give me one?"

Kafka panicked slightly for a moment.

"It's not like I couldn't~" As she spoke, Kafka looked at Ye Yun coquettishly.

Hardening his heart, Ye Yun decided to just push forward all the way.

"Then shall we set a time?"

Kafka's train of thought slipped momentarily, and she thought of some interesting things.

Seeing Ye Yun staring at her, Kafka's face turned slightly red.

Kafka quickly bought level-2 and level-3 Inner Demons, ran over to Silver Wolf, and sat down beside her.

The corners of Ye Yun's mouth curved upward slightly; he had finally won one back. Heh, women!

Ye Yun returned to the dining table.

"Himeko, how is the situation on Jarilo-VI? What are the Stellaron readings?"

Himeko turned on the equipment to scan the Stellaron readings on Jarilo, and upon seeing the results, her expression changed and she said in surprise.

"The Stellaron's activity is becoming more and more intense, and it's almost reaching a critical point."

Hearing this, Ye Yun started heading toward the Teleportation Portal.

"Let's go, let's go watch the show."

At that moment, Kafka spoke up from the side.

"Ye Yun, are you going to go check on Stelle and the others?"

Ye Yun nodded.

"Yeah, a Stellaron war, it'd be a waste not to watch."

Hearing this, Kafka pondered for a moment and turned to look at Silver Wolf.

"Darling, project a feed of Stelle's side."

Silver Wolf's hands moved rapidly; she didn't have the time.

"No time, I'm busy."

Kafka sighed.

Listen to me!

"Darling, project a feed of Stelle's side."

As if under a spell, Silver Wolf stood up with a blank gaze, pulled up the virtual keyboard, and projected a feed of Stelle's side onto the wall.

After finishing, Silver Wolf sat back down in her original spot, color returning to her eyes.

"Kafka!!! You used Spirit Speech on me again!"

Kafka covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Darling, who told you to play your game so seriously?"

Then, Kafka looked at Ye Yun.

"Alright, just watch it here. No need for you to make the trip yourself, right?"

Seeing this, Ye Yun figured that was fine; watching a big-screen live stream here wasn't out of the question either.

Watching the projection, Kafka breathed an inner sigh of relief.

This battle was an opportunity for Stelle. If there were no accidents, Stelle would receive the Gaze of Preservation.

After obtaining the Path of Preservation, Stelle's strength would undergo a qualitative improvement.

On Belobog.

Stelle, March 7th, Dan Heng, Seele, and Bronya had arrived at Everwinter Hill.

Cocolia raised the weapon of the Supreme Guardian's inheritance high, the Flame Lance.

"Creation Engine! In the name of the Supreme Guardian, I command you to rise!"

The ground of Everwinter Hill shook violently, and a towering, colossal robot awakened from the frozen earth.

Beneath it, a massive number of Fragmentum monsters surged toward Stelle and the others.

Stelle directly drew Divine Key: Judgment of Shamash and slashed out with a sword.

"Divine Key! Unsheathe!"

The blade of Divine Key: Judgment of Shamash spewed scorching flames, and the fire swept outward.

All the Fragmentum monsters caught in the sweep—except for elite units like the Shadow of the Devourer and the Ice of the Outer Universe—were burned to ashes by the fire.

The Shadow of the Devourer raised the staff in its hand, attempting to attack Stelle, when an arrow flew in and knocked the staff from its grasp.

The Shadow of the Devourer tried to reach out and grab the staff back, but a shadow flashed, and several Light Butterflies appeared not far in front of it.

The shadow flickered, and Seele emerged from it, her scythe swinging downward.

"Vanishe with the butterflies, shadows of the past!"

Under this blow, the Shadow of the Devourer perished instantly, scattering into points of light.

On the other side, Bronya continuously fired rapid shots to suppress an Ice of the Outer Universe.

With an Instant Step, Dan Heng arrived above the Ice of the Outer Universe, energy condensing on the Cloud-Piercer in his hand.

"A fleeting dream of grotto-heavens, shatter!"

Landing, Dan Heng flicked the Cloud-Piercer in his hand into a flower and slammed it fiercely into the ground.

The next second, the Ice of the Outer Universe behind him burst apart, disappearing into points of light.

Stelle, meanwhile, had her eyes on a Voidranger: Trampler.

Stelle put explosive force into her feet, shooting forward like an arrow released from a bow.

In the blink of an eye, Stelle arrived beneath the Trampler.

Grip tightening forcefully on Divine Key: Judgment of Shamash, the blade spewed scorching flames.

"Hah!" Stelle slashed upward with her sword, leaving a crack running through the Trampler's entire body.

The moment Stelle hoisted Divine Key: Judgment of Shamash onto her shoulder, a burst of flame erupted from the crack, engulfing the Trampler.
