Chapter 291

"..."

Luo Mio turned her head and saw her mother staring at her lower body.

Then he said helplessly.

"Since you're awake, why pretend to be asleep?"

However, Luo Mio's mother ignored Luo Mio's words and stood up to look at Luo Mio.

"Son, do you... have a disability?"

"..."

"Your mom, a young, beautiful, and mature married woman, is sleeping next to you, and you don't even feel a spark?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Mio looked at her mother as if she were a pervert.

"Sorry, I'm not so perverted as to be infatuated with my own mother."

Luo Mio stood up and said to her.

"Alright, since you've been awake for a while, hurry up and go wash up."

Luo Mio said while tidying up the bed.

"She's so old, and she still sleeps with her own son. Doesn't she feel ashamed?"

"I won't listen to this bastard's chanting."

"Besides, I'm here to have a good time with my son who ran away from home and I haven't seen him for eight years, to strengthen our bond, okay?"

Hearing her mother's words, Luo Mio sighed helplessly.

I can't argue with you.

Rolling her eyes at her mother, Luo Mio turned and left the room.

After stepping out of the room, I saw a maid outside the door carrying a washbasin and a towel draped over her arm.

Good morning, Your Highness Divine Child.

At this time every morning during those seven days, Luo Mio could see the maid here.

The young maid in front of her, who was only one or two years older than Luo Mio, was the granddaughter of Luo Mio's grandmother's former personal maid. Now she was one of the maids of Luo Mio's mother, the Second Generation Holy Child, and also the personal maid who took care of Luo Mio's daily life when he was still in the "Holy Residence".

Good morning, Jiu Luo.

Luo Mio took the towel from Jiu Luo's arm, wet it in the basin, wrung it out, and wiped her face.

Looking at the maid Jiu Luo, Luo Mio said helplessly.

"Since you know that Mom comes to my room every morning, why don't you stop her?"

Jiu Luo tilted her head and looked at Luo Mio, saying...

"Why are you stopping him? The Second His Highness seems quite happy."

Upon hearing this, Luo Mio knew that no matter what he said, the result would be the same.

Luo Mio shook her head as if giving up.

As Luo Mio walked out of the courtyard, his mother's voice came from behind him.

"Son! Where shall we go to play today?"

Luo Mio glanced at her.

"I need to go check on that little guy today."

"Ah... you're the little green snake you rescued from outside when you were little, right? I heard she's pregnant now."

At that moment, a voice rang out.

"His Your Highness Divine Child..."

"What's wrong?"

"... The third generation called."

Afterwards, Luo Mio and the other person went to a dark room inside the shrine.

The dark room was as huge as the underground conference and operations room of the "Holy Residence," except that there was no one inside.

Luo Mio turned on the switch, and then Luo Mio's mother displayed the main screen, connecting to the Strategy Meeting Room in the underground of "Holy Residence".

In the underground Strategy Meeting Room of "Seijou," the First Area of the Tokyo Area.

"Report! Your Highness Holy Child, there is an unknown communication request to connect with us."

Upon hearing this, the girl sitting in the main chair remained silent for a moment before speaking solemnly.

"Everyone out."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Strategy Meeting Room was taken aback.

Despite their confusion, everyone in the Strategy Meeting Room quickly evacuated the room.

After finding no one in the conference room, the girl connected to the video call on the main screen.

However, once the main screen connected, the scene before her eyes made the girl grit her teeth in anger.

On the screen, Luo Mio looked at it with a helpless expression. Beside Luo Mio, her highly respected mother held Luo Mio's arm affectionately and looked at her with a smile.

And when she saw her mother pressing her two plump mounds of fat against her beloved brother's arm, she couldn't help but think to herself, "..."

They're just two lumps of flesh! What's the big deal?

After saying this to herself, she lowered her eyes slightly and looked at her slightly protruding little hill.

Seeing the angry expression on the girl's face and her mother's happy smile beside her, Luo Mio could only look at the girl and say something to distract her.

"What happened?"

Upon hearing Luo Mio's question, the girl took a deep breath, looked at Luo Mio, and said.

"The Zodiac constellations are starting to move around the world!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Mio's mother's expression also turned serious.

Upon hearing this, Luo Mio looked at the girl and said something as if it were unexpected.

"The operation began when the Osaka Area was destroyed, right?"

"..."

The girl didn't answer, but simply nodded silently.

"Yesterday, Aldebaran successfully rendezvoused with Libra, and five days ago, the viral sac in Libra's abdomen was found to be activating."

"Then, on the day it reunited with Aldebaran... Libra began its offensive towards the Osaka Area."

"Then, just half a day later, the Osaka Area was declared destroyed..."

The girl spoke slowly and solemnly.

"All residents in the Osaka Area who were not evacuated in time..."

"And then?"

Luo Mio Ling said calmly.

The girl looked up at Luo Mio, whose expression was indifferent, as if she didn't care at all about the lives and deaths of the people in the Osaka Area.

After a short silence, the girl spoke quietly.

"Following the destruction in the Osaka Area, early this morning, reconnaissance satellites detected that the 'Zodiac Signs' observed around the world have begun to move."

"And at the same time, Libra, leading Aldebaran and its legions, began its advance towards the Hokkaido Region."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Luo Mio's eyes narrowed slightly.

"And there's one more thing..."

Luo Mio raised her eyes to look at the girl.

The girl looked into Luo Mio's eyes and then spoke.

"The direction from which all 'Zodiac' actions converge..."

"... They're all in the Far East."

Chapter Sixty-Seven: Torture

Are we going back?

Standing in front of Luo Mio's mother, whose long silver hair was tied into a high ponytail, looked at Luo Mio and said softly.

"Um."

Luo Mio looked at the enormous Green Python coiled up in front of her and nodded.

Luo Mio gently patted the Green Python's head and said.

Take care, little one.

Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, the Green Python very intelligently stretched out its head and rubbed against Luo Mio's arm.

Watching the Green Python close its eyes and fall asleep again, Luo Mio quietly ignited a wisp of crimson flame on her index finger, which then slowly disappeared into the Green Python's body.

Luo Mio's mother watched this scene quietly from the side.

She had always known that Luo Mio possessed magical abilities.

After all, during her ten months of pregnancy, she occasionally saw some inexplicable memories, memories that she couldn't understand at all.

Then Luo Mio and she left the depths of the forest.

"Over the years, that little guy has been relying on the new leaves of the Sacred Tree to sustain its life. In addition, it recently became pregnant. If you hadn't come back just in time, this little guy probably wouldn't have made it through the year."

"So that's how it is. No wonder there wasn't a trace of blood on it when I came back."

Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, Luo Mio's mother rolled her eyes at him.

"It's because when you left back then, you said to it, 'Little guy, you have to listen to my mom from now on, and you can't eat your own kind, understand?' Because of that, it hasn't eaten any raw meat at all these years."

Luo Mio shook her head and chuckled, "I just said a few words to it casually back then."

After they finished speaking, the two fell silent again.

"It seems... time is almost up."

Luo Mio's mother spoke gently and softly.

Luo Mio nodded silently.

"Um."

Turning around, Luo Mio walked towards the lake shore.

Standing on the shore, Luo Mio looked at the scenery before her.

The crystal-clear lake surface, like a piece of sparkling crystal, reflects the warm sunlight shining down from directly above.

Beside him, his mother watched him silently.

After standing there for an unknown amount of time, Luo Mio slowly spoke.

"Then I'm leaving."

"..."

After a few seconds of silence behind her, Luo Mio's mother nodded as if she were about to cry.

"Yes, have a safe trip."

Luo Mio turned around and looked at her, giving her a smile.

Then, a Void Fissures suddenly appeared before Luo Mio's eyes.

"Remember to tell Jiu Luo and Grandma Jiu for me."

After saying that, Luo Mio turned around and stepped into the Void Fissures.

After that, only Luo Mio's mother remained on the shore.
