“So annoying, go away......”
Pa!
In a daze, Vieya felt her foot kick into something soft, like cotton.
No, wait, who did I just kick?
A bad premonition surged up in the slime girl’s heart.
Before she could react, a pair of hands grabbed her cheeks and squeezed them hard.
“Ow! Which son of a—......”
Her eyes were still closed, and Vieya instinctively wanted to swear, but the increasing force on her cheeks literally forced her to swallow every vulgar word back down.
“......Eh, Flaviel, why is it you.”
After opening her eyes, Vieya hurriedly rubbed them twice to make sure she wasn’t seeing things. Once she confirmed it, she immediately grew guilty.
“I thought you’d disappeared again.”
“Disappeared? That I haven’t done. Right now, I only exist in resonance with the power inside you, so I can only show up near you.”
Flaviel was sitting on the slime girl’s belly, looking down at her with a less-than-pleasant expression as she asked,
“Then why were you about to curse me just now?”
“Get off me first...... and I didn’t actually say it out loud, did I?” Vieya said carefully.
Her gaze shifted to the golden-haired Demon King girl, and at the same time she noticed that the sky outside the window had already gone dark.
The temperature at night had dropped quite a bit, but strangely, there was no sign of Aurora or Jasmine inside the room.
Flaviel asked again,
“Then why did you kick me?”
Vieya hesitated.
“I thought you were a roadblock...... Anyway, why am I the only one in here? Do you know where our daughter and Aurora went?”
“‘Mom, we went out to buy you cooling beads and some delicious little cakes. So don’t panic when you wake up, remember to wait for us, okay?’”
Flaviel held up a piece of paper and read it out loud with great emotion. When she finished, she lowered her head again to look at the slime girl, eyes smiling, and added with overflowing feeling,
“Mom～”
“......”
She knew Flaviel was joking, but Vieya still felt uncomfortable all over, her expression as indescribable as if she’d just eaten deep-fried ice cream.
“Hehe, anyway, back to the point.”
Very satisfied with the slime’s expression, Flaviel laughed.
“Xiao Ye, haven’t you noticed that something feels off? It’s already past eight, but they still haven’t come back......”
“That’s true.”
Vieya thought for a moment, then looked at the golden-haired, golden-eyed little Demon King girl in front of her and asked,
“So did something happen to them? You woke me up because of them?”
“Yes and no.”
Flaviel lightly tapped the slime girl’s snow-white, soft belly as she answered with her eyes lowered,
“You should have long since known that I have some ties with the Elven Forest...... and deep inside the Elven Forest there’s the World Tree. Its root system spreads through the entire Western Plateau. The moment I tried to connect to It, I succeeded right away, but because of that I fell into a coma for several days.”
“No wonder you ignored me no matter how I called you before. I thought you’d vanished again......”
Vieya let out a sigh of relief, but then twisted her body uneasily, cheeks flushing as she shyly muttered,
“And also, could you stop touching my belly...... it really tickles.”
“Mm-hm? Xiao Ye now isn’t as forceful as you used to be.”
Flaviel lifted a finger to her lips and smiled slyly.
“But that’s to be expected. Your stamina in bed # Nоvеlight # has never been good. At the start you’d shout and posture like some mighty tiger, but most of the time you’d go limp into a sick cat before we’d even gone a couple of rounds, you couldn’t even lift a finger......”
“That’s enough!”
Vieya shut her eyes and ground her teeth, the blush on her cheeks unclear whether from embarrassment or anger.
“Hurry up and tell me how our daughter is doing now!”
“Even after I connected to the World Tree, I still can’t browse all information at lightspeed like before. To use an analogy you can understand, right now I can only use a 1G network—upload and download speeds are very slow.”
Flaviel’s memory was excellent. As long as it was something Vieya had said to her, she could basically remember it and even draw inferences from it, so that she could use it next time they talked.
She smiled, continuing to draw little hearts on the slime girl’s belly with her index finger.
“But they haven’t gone very far. If something really had happened, that little snake girl with a trace of atavistic blood would have already started making a huge scene along the West Coast, so you don’t need to worry.”
“Phew......”
Vieya let out a breath.
“But.”
The pressure of Flaviel’s finger wandering across the slime girl’s belly suddenly increased. Vieya finally couldn’t hold back a strange sound, and the air went silent for a second.
“Mm-hm? Does that feel good, Xiao Ye?” Flaviel asked with concern.
Vieya grabbed the pillow beside her and pressed it over her face, muttering in a suppressed but calm tone,
“No, it doesn’t feel good at all. Don’t touch me...... Just tell me directly whether I need to go out and look for Jasmine and the others.”
“Fine.”
Flaviel pouted.
This useless slime’s physical strength was actually worse than before; all she could do was talk tough with that filthy mouth.
Just a little touch and she was acting like she’d climaxed eighteen times in a row.
“Even though I’d really like to take a walk around this place with you, stroll a few laps, looking at you like this I’m guessing you can’t even walk straight. So just lie here obediently and wait for them to bring things back and feed you.”
“Then why did you bother waking me up.”
The slime girl’s voice was gloomy under the pillow.
“You’re always like this, you always like using this kind of foreplay to torment me......”
“So in your eyes this counts as torment?”
Flaviel’s golden eyes were full of surprise.
“But aren’t the steps drawn in those books all like this?”
“Stop reading those books......”
Vieya said through gritted teeth,
“They’re all lying! It doesn’t feel good at all!”
......
Haishi.
“Aurora-sis, shouldn’t we go back now?”
Jasmine pulled her coat tighter around herself. In the Western lands the daytime heat was suffocating, but once the night wind blew, it became cold again.
Fortunately, Aurora had reminded her in time to add an extra layer at night, so she had been prepared.
“It is indeed getting late.”
Aurora raised her head to look toward the bustling center of Haishi, where a white flag stood tall. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
The large white flag fluttered now and then in the breeze, bearing the image of a serpentine divine beast coiling through the clouds.
The Feathered Serpent God was the totem of all human clans in the Western lands.
Legend said this divine beast had wings on its back and a body so vast it could wrap around the entire Western Plateau.
It carried the ancestors of the Western humans out of the Abyss and, on this water-rich, grass-carpeted plateau, established tribes and developed civilization.
Later, when faced with the nine-headed demon serpent Hydra that pursued them from the Abyss, it even slew that foe, protecting the entire West and all living things......
The bloodline of that demon serpent Hydra was the very reason Aurora had been ostracized by her tribe back then.
Many years ago, as Aurora followed the tribe across the grasslands, migrating and hunting, she had never once imagined that over ten years later, she would once again stand beneath the Feathered Serpent God’s great banner with such a calm mindset of “the world has changed, the past is like drifting clouds.”
There were as many tribes on the Western Plateau as there were stars in the sky.
There were even more dangers, the darkness wrapping around those stars.
The tribe Aurora had once belonged to had already disappeared from this land many years ago, but some of the tribe’s objects had now appeared before her eyes.
Aurora stopped in front of a stall, her gaze landing on a scepter inlaid with emeralds.
She paused, then raised her head and asked,
“Boss, do you have any other treasures here?”
