Chapter 270
The old maid, who was kneeling on the ground holding the boy, was speechless with shock after hearing the conversation between Luo Mio and the Second Generation Holy Child.
Because she never knew that the Second Generation Holy Child, whom she had worshipped for many years, actually had a son.
That's when she realized that her life was over.
Chapter 47: What? Can't I kiss my mom?
Luo Mio held her phone as she walked along the corridor leading to the central garden.
"Don't worry, Mom, I'm doing great."
Luo Mio spoke with a rather helpless tone to her adoptive mother on the other end of the phone.
"Of course I know you're doing well. After all, your beautiful son's abilities are obvious to everyone."
"..." Holding the phone, Luo Mio felt a little embarrassed and said with a wry smile, "Mom, can you please not add the word 'pretty'? I'm a guy."
"But you are indeed beautiful."
On the other end of the phone, Luo Mio's mother said, "If I hadn't secretly watched you take a shower before, I would have doubted whether you were a boy or not. Luckily, I have ¥#@!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Luo Mio immediately felt a headache coming on.
"Mom, you're supposed to be the Second Generation Holy Child, you should be more mindful of your image."
"Huh? I'm not the Holy Child anymore, why should I care about my image?"
"..."
Luo Mio held her forehead, her head aching.
"You used to have such a cool, composed, and gentle image..."
"Hmph, that's all thanks to you, my precious son."
"... I kind of regret saying that."
Indeed, as Luo Mio said, when Luo Mio's mother was the Second Generation Holy Child, she could be said to be a truly wise ruler. As the Second Generation Holy Child who revived the Tokyo Area in a short period of time, her fame and honor were the highest among Holy Child in history.
But this comes with pressure and public opinion.
For a period of time, Luo Mio always looked very haggard when she ate dinner in the evening.
At that moment, Luo Mio said something to her.
'Why live such a constrained life? You are the Holy Child, the ruler of this country. Why should you change yourself because of the people's opinions?'
It was this sentence that brought about a huge change in her.
She transformed from a gentle, quiet, and aloof mature woman into a passionate, fiery, and free-spirited mafia boss type...
"By the way, when are you coming back?"
Luo Mio's mother's mature and languid voice became very gentle, full of the flavor of a virtuous wife.
Hearing her adoptive mother's gentle voice, Luo Mio paused for a moment before speaking.
"Let's wait a few days, after this incident is over."
"Mmm." A hint of happiness appeared in her gentle and virtuous voice.
"Oh, there's one more thing."
At this moment, Luo Mio's mother asked Luo Mio a question again.
"Did that old bastard Qi Wu make a move against you?"
However, this time, Luo Mio's mother's voice was not a lazy, sexy, or gentle and virtuous voice, but the voice of a wise ruler and a Second Generation Holy Child.
"Yes, yesterday evening."
Upon hearing Luo Mio's reply, Luo Mio's mother said coldly, "I didn't expect that old guy would actually dare to attack you!"
Luo Mio walked into the back garden, looked at the lush green grass in front of her, and said in a calm tone.
"There is nothing he wouldn't dare to do."
Hearing Luo Mio's cold words, which showed no regard for Sogen Saitake, Luo Mio's mother was slightly taken aback, and then chuckled as she spoke.
"That's true. The reason that old guy Qi Wu did this is probably because of your appearance. He wanted to test your current strength and see if it would affect his plans."
"The 'Five Shoals Association' has become increasingly arrogant since I stepped down. Do they look down on my precious daughter?!"
Luo Mio sat down on the grass and looked up at the morning sun.
"There's nothing we can do. That girl is too gentle and kind. She's not as radical as you. Her nature dictates that she can never do the same things as you."
"..."
There was silence on the other end of the phone, then Luo Mio's mother spoke.
"You mean I'm radical and violent now?"
"... No, no." Luo Mio raised her eyebrows slightly.
"At most, it's just childishness."
"Huh?! When am I being childish?!"
Luo Mio's mother's rebuttal came from the other end of the phone.
"How can a mother still bathe and sleep with her son when he's already six years old?!"
"Check if your child's development is normal."
"..."
Luo Mio sighed helplessly. No matter what, he could never win an argument with his adoptive mother. She was too eloquent. No wonder she was a former Head of State.
Unable to argue further, Luo Mio could only change the subject.
Did the child's spirit return to the "Soul Realm"?
"Um."
Luo Mio breathed a slight sigh of relief after hearing her mother's answer.
"Now only those eight children are left."
"Um."
Luo Mio said softly, "I have destroyed the 'Legacy of the Seven Stars' in the Tokyo Area. The legacies hidden in the Far East and around the world have not yet surfaced."
"However, I estimate that some of the upper echelons in the Russia Area have already reached their limit."
"Russia Area ..." Luo Mio's mother was slightly taken aback, then seemed to understand something.
"The Solomon's Ring and Libra...?"
Luo Mio lay down and quietly basked in the morning sun.
"Although it has been publicly stated that the Railgun component 'The Stairway' caused irreparable damage during the destruction of 'Scorpio,' whether 'The Stairway' has truly been destroyed remains unknown to other countries."
"After all, a railgun that can be launched from the surface of the moon to the ground is such a threatening weapon. If it is truly repaired, it is more than gratifying for people like Sogen Saitake and Xuan who want to dominate the world."
Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, Luo Mio's mother understood.
"You want the group that stole the 'Solomon's Ring' from Russia Area to deal with that 'Libra' kid?"
"That's right."
"For other countries, the Tokyo Area is currently the least threatening part of the entire Far East, since the current Holy Child does not have the ambition to dominate the world."
"Therefore, compared to the Tokyo Area, the four areas that pose the greatest danger to them are Osaka, Sendai, Sapporo, and Hakata."
On the other end of the phone, Luo Mio's mother paused for a moment after hearing what Luo Mio said, and then spoke.
"So now... those people wearing the 'Solomon's Ring' are in the Osaka Area?"
"I reckon that's possible," Luo Mio Miao chuckled. "Sogen Saitake is the most dangerous of the four regional rulers. I'm afraid we'll hear news of the 'Zodiac Palace' Gastrea —the 'Libra'—appearing in the Osaka Area in a few days."
"Oh, right."
Upon hearing Luo Mio mention Sogen Saitake, Luo Mio's mother also spoke up.
"You need to be careful. According to my information, Sogen Saitake contacted Ann Rand yesterday."
"Ayn Rand... that unprecedented, stubborn old man who was obstinate to the death?"
Ayn Rand.
One of the "Four Sages".
Muroto Sumire, one of the "Four Sages," was the highest-ranking person in charge of the "New Human Creation Plan" of the Far East Branch.
Ann Rand was the former head of the US division "NEXT".
"It won't be easy for Qi Wu to persuade that stubborn old man, Ann Rand."
"But if we really want to persuade him..."
Luo Mio's lips curled up slightly.
"Tell Ayn Rand about my identity as the 'Child of God'."
"For a scientist like him, there is no more tempting offspring bestowed by the gods."
"I reckon that old guy has already dispatched 'NEXT' mechanized soldiers to the Tokyo Area."
Hearing Luo Mio's words, Luo Mio's mother also sighed.
"You are more suited to the position of Holy Child than your sister."
"Come on."
Luo Mio rolled her eyes after hearing her mother's words.
"I don't want to be busy to death every day and have to put up with the grumpy faces of other Head of State."
"So, aren't you tired of being a police officer now?"
"So, do you think being Head of State is more relaxed and comfortable, or being a police officer is more enjoyable?"
"..." Luo Mio's mother paused for a moment.
"Are you all grown up now? You actually dare to kiss your mother on the lips."
"..."
"I'm not so perverted as to kiss my own mother."
"What? You can't kiss your mom, but you want to kiss your sister?"
"..."
Luo Mio listened to her mother's words with twitching eyes.
Without thinking twice, I hung up the phone.
He then let out a soft breath, stood up, and walked back.
——
In a remote mountain area in the Far East.
"Hello?"
A beautiful young woman, who looked quite similar to a teenage girl, sat languidly in the bathtub, looking at the phone she had already hung up.
Then he muttered and cursed, "That brat, how dare he hang up on his mother!"
"If I don't give him a good talking-to when he comes back next time, I'm not his mother!"
The silver-haired young woman tossed aside the phone and lazily raised her head, seemingly lost in thought.
Then she stood up from the bath, revealing her alluring figure that fascinated and drove men wild.
The silver-haired young woman's originally languid demeanor suddenly became solemn and dignified.
He casually took a bathrobe from the maid's hand, draped it over himself, and said to the figure standing guard at the gate.
"Go to the Gomiya and warn the rulers of Sendai, Sapporo, and Hakata: if they want to remain in the position of Head of State, they'd better behave themselves! Otherwise, I don't recommend finding them a successor."
Then, Gomiya's indifferent voice came from outside the door.
