Chapter 148

Against the backdrop of a slightly mature evening gown, the coldness and aloofness on the other person's face gave off a very aloof feeling.

Siegfried and Theresa's eyes lit up.

Her unexpected outfit made her appear very mature, but K422 actually knew that she was just a girl who was prone to introversion.

"I am Kiana Kaslana, thank you for attending this family dinner."

However, she was trembling all over when she said those words, and if it weren't for a hand on her second sister's hand, she probably wouldn't have been able to say a complete sentence.

Welt and the others led the applause.

This family dinner marked the formal alliance between K422 and Welt and his group.

Before K422 confessed such a truth that could affect his position, even though Welt and the others already knew the truth, they remained vigilant and could not accurately judge K422's stance.

"Sister~" K423 excitedly prepared to pounce on her.

Or rather, it crashed into us.

"Aurora".

Kiana, who was already prepared, didn't mind hugging her.

At this time, she would not choose the nicknames her sisters used in private, but instead use the formal names that her mother Cecilia had prepared for her two younger sisters.

"Freya, thank you."

Why are you being so polite with me?

K422 couldn't help but smile and wink at her, making Kiana laugh and cry.

Without this younger sister, I might not have been able to host a family dinner like this, and reunite with my father...

K422 also formally introduced himself to everyone on this occasion.

"Although you already know my name is Freya before that... well, my foolish little sister can't keep secrets, but please allow me to formally introduce myself. My name is Freya Schariac, a name given to me by the consciousness of my mother Cecilia, who was sleeping in the Black Abyss White Flower."

After K422 finished speaking, she curtsied to everyone present, lifting her skirt.

Although she wore a ceremonial dress called "Saintess's Prayer" to avoid stealing the spotlight, adorned with numerous Golden Cross patterns and a gold chain at her waist decorated with the symbol of Schicksal, giving the impression of wearing work clothes to a family dinner, the dress itself was still quite Saintess's Prayer, so she still managed to steal a bit of the limelight.

K422 felt apologetic, but her awesome aura wouldn't allow her to be low-key.

After the introduction, she winked at K423, but K423 obviously didn't understand her hint, so K422 had to formally introduce her on her behalf.

Although Welt and the others already knew K423 very well, Theresa was seeing K423 for the first time and was genuinely curious about its current situation.

"Then there's our little sister, her name is..."

"Waaah! I can do it myself, I can do it myself."

Both her older and second older sisters had introduced themselves. Even though K423 was slow to react, when she heard her second older sister preparing to introduce herself, she immediately ran and jumped to her side.

"Don't rush, you're acting all flustered. If you want to introduce yourself, then you can do it yourself."

K422 took a step back, turning everyone's attention to the adorable K423.

K423 placed her hands together in front of her body and bowed to the crowd like a Yamato Nadeshiko.

She had already taken off her long, wavy blonde wig and given it to Mei for safekeeping when she entered the backyard, since she would need to wear it again when she went back.

K423, who looked like a well-bred young lady from a secluded family, spoke in a clear, crisp voice.

"I am..."

Then I suddenly bit my tongue.

"Waaaaah..."

It charmed everyone present.

"One more time, my name is Aurora S. Tesla Young, thank you everyone."

"Puff--"

Siegfried clutched his chest, feeling like he could vomit several mouthfuls of blood.

He could accept the second son saying his surname Schariac, but he couldn't stand the third son saying his surname was S. Tesla Young.

"Welt, you bastard!!"

"Stop joking, stop joking. Didn't we already say we had to use a pseudonym?"

"Fake name my foot! The Xiao San is using this name as her real name all along. You and Tesla are really trying to steal my Xiao San, aren't you!"

Siegfried stormed forward and grabbed Welt by the collar.

Welt, feeling guilty, quickly looked up and said, "I never meant to take your daughter away from you."

Yes, it's just that your daughter chose him and Tesla.

K423 tilted her head, not understanding why Siegfried was angry. However, she was really happy to introduce herself in front of everyone. She just couldn't introduce Welt Sister Tesla Mengzhu her parents to others.

In K423's little head, a plan was quietly being made to bring his parents together and form a happy family.

Ryoma couldn't help but step forward to help Welt calm down Siegfried was having a meltdown.

Theresa then took the opportunity to greet K423. "May I call you Aurora?"

"Of course, I love it Aurora. This lady is so pretty."

K423 responded with a smile, then gave Theresa a hug and even stood on tiptoe to kiss Theresa on the cheek.

"... Little Aurora, you are such an honest and good child!"

Theresa returned the hug, but she clearly wasn't planning to let go of K423 easily.

"Hehe, it's a little itchy, but you're really pretty, sister. You look a lot like me and my second sister. White hair and blue eyes are my favorite colors~"

K423 didn't mind Theresa rubbing her face against hers at all. She really enjoyed the feeling of being close to people and even retaliated by rubbing her soft face against Theresa's.

However, upon hearing K423's declaration of affection, her two friends were suddenly devastated.

"White hair, blue eyes... why do I have black hair?"

"Well, hair color and eye color can be changed by altering genetic factors. No, it's even simpler to use wigs, dye your hair, or wear colored contact lenses."

Compared to the bewildered Mei, Iserin was clearly preparing to give herself a 'makeover'.

Watching from the sidelines, K422, being the second oldest, was paying close attention, her mouth curving into a smile.

Kiana, on the other hand, smiled wryly.

Their younger sister seems destined to become a woman burdened with sin.

164. My childhood sweetheart is super popular

K423 is very popular; even Theresa, who saw her for the first time, couldn't help but be captivated by her cuteness.

Besides, there's Tesla's "mother" who has been taking care of K423.

After greeting Theresa, K423 rushed back into Tesla's arms.

Tesla smiled and reached out to stroke the little head that had come close to her, her every move exuding a maternal warmth.

Anyone who didn't know better would think the two people standing together were a mother and daughter.

Theresa was somewhat depressed.

K423 clearly stated that white hair and blue eyes were her favorite colors, but in the blink of an eye, she threw herself into Tesla's arms, whose hair was bright red, and refused to leave.

Theresa was also annoyed that Tesla usually didn't exude any femininity, but at this moment, her overflowing maternal instincts made her seem like a young mother, and her femininity was off the charts—

The men present couldn't help but take another look.

It's fair to say that Tesla's contrast is quite significant.

Theresa felt like she had lost somewhere, but then she thought about it and realized, "Hmm, I haven't lost. After all, compared to Tesla, I'm still very young! Compared to Tesla and Einstein, I'm still very young!"

Theresa, who believes she will eventually become incredibly feminine, still feels a little jealous when she sees K423 acting coquettishly towards Tesla.

However, the one who was most jealous was not her, but Siegfried, who was grilling lamb skewers while biting his lower lip, his face practically screaming with jealousy.

After the three sisters introduced themselves, K422 announced the start of the family dinner.

K422 expressed her gratitude to Welt and Tesla for taking care of her, her younger sister.

Mei and Iserin were curious about the real Kiana, but since they had come with K423, they naturally followed K423 closely... although K423 was acting like a spoiled mother, unwilling to leave Tesla for even a moment.

Tesla had no choice but to ask Welt to fetch her food and then feed the clingy white ball of fur.

Those who don't want barbecue can enter the kitchen through the back door, where dishes from many countries are laid out on the kitchen table.

"Aurora, Aurora, your eldest sister looks so cold, and your second sister looks so powerful."

Mei ran over to K423, who was acting cute towards Tesla, and couldn't help but express her feelings.

K423 naturally wore a smug expression.

For K423, praising her two older sisters made her happier than praising herself.

After looking around, K422 let Kiana chat with Theresa, Welt, and the others a bit more. Since they weren't going to talk about business today, she just wanted to grab something to eat.

After all, this was just a family dinner, a statement made by K422.

Welt, Ryoma, and the others naturally had no intention of discussing official business here.

But Siegfried's face was contorted in front of the barbecue grill, and blood and tears seemed to flow down the tear tracks under his eyes, which made Welt, Ryoma and the others who wanted to try the barbecue stop in their tracks.

Most importantly, it's unclear why the Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment was inserted into it to provide flames.

Although the flames released by the Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment can be adjusted by the holder, Welt, Ryoma, and the others were clearly not very interested in the lamb skewers grilled with the Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment.

Welt, who wanted to get some food for Tesla, had no choice but to set his sights on the feast in the kitchen.

Welt entered the kitchen through the open back door, only to find K422 already there.

"Oh? Mr. Welt, did Siegfried's barbecue not suit your taste? Don't worry, I've prepared a lot of Far Eastern dishes. Although some of the food is a bit cold, it shouldn't affect the taste."

Although K422's idea of hosting a BBQ at noon fell through because Ryoma and others were absent, she still came up with a unique idea for dinner: combining a large meal with a barbecue.

The international dishes displayed on the kitchen table are the result of meticulous preparation by K422's exclusive culinary team.

"I highly recommend this foie gras salad. It was made by my favorite Western chef. The taste of it melting in your mouth like butter is unforgettable. The spiciness of the chili peppers blends with the sour taste of pineapple and grapefruit, creating a wonderful sense of layering like a melody."

"..."

Welt naturally picked up the dish recommended by K422.

But he desperately wanted to criticize the Schicksal's wicked aristocratic classism.

The small dish in his hand, barely enough for one bite, was enough to cover his travel expenses for half a year of exploring ancient ruins around the world.

There were countless such dishes in the kitchen, and K422 didn't even consider what to do with them if they were left over.

"Just wondering, what do you do with leftover food?"

"Yes, the 'staff' will eat it deliciously."

K422 ate while grinning mischievously.

"Mr. Welt, this smoked duck is also very good. It comes with turmeric, tamarind sauce, and traditional chili sauce. The way to eat it is to roll up the whole piece of duck along with the soy sauce and side dishes and eat it in one bite. It's perfect for making Sister Tesla open her mouth and say 'Ah~'. I don't need to say more, right?"

"Is that so? Thank you very much for the suggestion, Your Acting Grand Bishop."

Then Tesla picked up the smoked duck with a fork, and amidst K423's "Ah~", the little cutie ate it in one bite.

K423 cupped her puffed-up cheeks, captivated by the unique layers of flavor in this Western dish.

"..."

Welt stood to the side, feeling that something was not quite right.

"Bring some more over, don't forget that Xiao San has a big appetite."

"Hehe, Sister Tesla is eating too~"

"Okay, okay, Sister Tesla, you can have a bite of this lamb skewer too."

After finishing her foie gras salad and smoked duck, K423 still had a lamb skewer in her little hand. Although the others were wary of the lamb skewers grilled by Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment, for K423, a little foodie, the lamb skewers sprinkled with cumin were so delicious that she simply couldn't resist!

In fact, this was already the third lamb skewer she had eaten.

Tesla opened his mouth and made an "ah~" sound, waiting for K423 to bring the Siegfried lamb skewers to his mouth.

"Sister Tesla ~~ come here~~"
