A long while passed.
Lynn finally recovered from Xiao Xiao's suffocating embrace. He exhaled and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
No! This slide toward something abnormal had to be stopped immediately!
Sure, she was already 3,005 years old!
But she was still a very little girl!
One couldn't-or at least, shouldn't!
Just as Lynn was considering a solution, a tentacle poked him from behind.
Lynn turned and immediately saw a terrifying face practically pressed against his own. Its stormlike breath buffeted him.

Lynn's eyes widened. He swallowed and said:
"Uncle... did you need something?"
The Titan Head narrowed his eyes, looking like the head of a mighty lion, and said darkly:
"Since you-can temporarily turn my daughter-back to her original form-could you-"
His expression slowly grew awkward.
"I mean-"
Lynn stared, his body rigid, not daring to move.
"Well-"
Smack-
Before he could finish, a tentacle behind him slapped him away, sending him rolling a dozen meters.
Lynn watched, (꒪Д꒪)ノ, as the Titan Head rolled away like a ball, smoke rising from his crown. He couldn't utter a word.
"Useless fool-asking someone for help, yet stammering away-and acting so overbearing-you've utterly disgraced yourself!"
The Witch God Head closed her eyes, veins throbbing at her temples.
Lynn stared and swallowed.
That blow seemed to carry a little personal resentment, too...
In an instant.
The Witch God Head took the Titan Head's place, and an incredibly gentle, friendly smile appeared on her face as though by magic.
But her entire face was so terrifying that smiling only made her look more sinister.
"Hohohohohoho-"
The Witch God Head covered her mouth with a tentacle like a prim noblewoman. Her gaze brimmed with praise and amusement as she looked at Lynn, her laughter making his hair stand
