On their way back, Mag carefully observed Kiddo who was plaiting Ah Zi’s fur.

The little one’s mentality was similar to a two-year-old child who just learned how to walk and talk. She was curious about everything and had an urge to express herself.

She was very smart and was a linguistic genius. She pointed and asked about everything on their way back. She soon obtained a great deal of vocabulary.

“Come over here, Kiddo.” Gina waved to her with a smile.

“W-wait a sec.” Kiddo tied a knot for the eighth plait and put it down gently. Looking at the four pairs of neat little plaits, Kiddo nodded with satisfaction before crawling over to Gina and pounced into her arms.

“Are you hungry?” Gina hugged her lightly.

“Hungry?” Kiddo stared at her curiously with widened eyes.

“You don’t want to eat?” Gina touched her tummy and smilingly said, “Is your stomach grumbling?”

“Growl~”

Kiddo’s stomach grumbled cooperatively. Gina nodded smilingly, “It’s grumbling. Kiddo wants to eat. Kiddo is hungry.”

“She’s a newborn. Does she want to drink milk?” Mag asked casually.

“Kiddo wants to drink milk milk. Kiddo wants to drink milk milk.” Kiddo immediately nodded and looked at Gina.

Gina flushed red instantly. S-she didn’t have milk either.

Mag realized he seemed to be seeking trouble. Although Kiddo deemed Gina as her mother, Gina didn’t actually give birth to her, so she wouldn’t have milk.

Furthermore… Didn’t she come from an egg? Why would she be drinking milk?

The system’s voice rang out in his mind, “Host, you’re being ignorant. Oviparous mammals do exist on Earth. The platypus is one of them. Hence, it shouldn’t be surprising that oviparous magic beasts exist on the Norland Continent.”

Mag didn’t want to acknowledge the system’s random sharing of general knowledge. He said to Kiddo smilingly, “Kiddo, open your mouth and let me see.”

“Ah.”

Kiddo opened her mouth obediently and revealed two neat and shiny rows of little teeth. At one glance, there should be 20 of them.

Mag patted the little one’s head and said, “Mmm. Our Kiddo already has all your teeth, so you don’t need to drink milk anymore. You can eat meat once we reach home.”

“Meat meat?” Kiddo showed a curious expression again.

“Meat meat… is a delicious food. Just wait a while longer. We’ll be home soon and I’ll make it for you.”

Kiddo nodded and said, “Great. Kiddo wants to eat Father’s meat meat.”

“It’s the meat that Father makes. Not Father’s meat.” Mag corrected her.

Half an hour later, Ah Zi landed at the exterior of Chaos City.

Mag brought Gina and Kiddo out of the mountains and slowly rode his bicycle into the city.

“Wow… what a big house.” Kiddo, who was sitting in the bicycle’s basket, looked up at the tall city walls with awe on her face.

Mag smilingly introduced, “Kiddo, this is Chaos City. We will be living here.”

Kiddo nodded and said, “Chaos City! Kiddo loves it here!”

After going through the city walls, Mag introduced whatever they saw on the way to Kiddo. He said plenty and Kiddo was listening to him attentively. She would ask him one or two funny questions occasionally.

Gina sat on the bicycle’s backseat and wrapped her arms around Mag’s waist. She was feeling rather amazed.

“Is this the feeling of home?” Gina thought with a blush, but her blush deepened further when she thought about how they were going to explain to everyone in the restaurant.

“We’re home!” Mag stopped the bicycle with his long legs and pointed at the signboard above the door. “Look, Kiddo. This is our home, Mamy Restaurant.”

“Ma-my… Restaurant!” Kiddo repeated after him before saying happily, “Our home is so pretty. It’s much prettier than the other homes.”

“You’ve got great taste. Let’s return home.” Mag got off the bicycle and carried Kiddo out from the basket.

“Let me carry her.” Gina went forward to take the child.

Mag parked the bicycle at the door before opening it and going in.

Kiddo held onto Gina’s shoulders with one arm as she sized up the restaurant curiously.

“Meow~”

Ugly Duckling, who was dozing on the counter, stretched out lazily and opened its eyes in a daze as it called out.

“Meow meow?” Kiddo’s gaze landed on Ugly Duckling in one second.

Ugly Duckling seemed to be being stared at by something horrible. Its fur bristled and it stared at Kiddo in Gina’s arms. It took two steps backward and fell from the counter with a plop.

“Hahaha. Stupid kitty, silly kitty~” Kiddo giggled.

Mag and Gina also couldn’t help but laugh when they saw this.

Ugly Duckling poked half of its head out from the counter and secretly observed with one eye.

“Ugly Duckling is usually not afraid of anything. It will snooze in front of the 10th-tier powerhouses too. It has met its match this time.” Mag chuckled.

“Mother, I want to go down. I want to play with kitty,” Kiddo said.

“Go on. Be careful, don’t spook it. It’s Little Amy’s pet.” Gina put Kiddo down with a smile.

“Little kitty, come and play with me.” Kiddo quickly stumbled towards the counter as soon as she touched the ground.

“Meow—”

Ugly Duckling ran out from the counter immediately. It dashed up the pillar and jumped across the walls. It reached the beam at the restaurant’s upper right corner in one second and crouched there, watching Kiddo warily.

Mag was a little shocked. Ugly Duckling didn’t look like its usual fat, lazy and sloppy self when it showed off its skills like this. Its speed was comparable to a 5th-tier or 6th-tier magic beast.

Kiddo looked around her and finally found Ugly Duckling, who was crouching on a beam. She placed her hands at her waist and said with a pout, “Come on here, little kitty. Be good.”

Ugly Duckling retracted its head and hid right away. It didn’t look like it was going to come down at all.

Mag flicked a glance at the clock on the wall. It was four p.m.

“Oh dear. I forgot to go pick up Amy!” Mag slapped his thigh and was about to go out.

“Father, I’m home!” Before Mag could leave, Amy already skipped in with her little school bag on her back.

Kiddo turned around and saw Amy, who had just skipped in. Her big blue eyes glowed.

Amy also noticed Kiddo who was standing in the center of the restaurant. Amy first looked shocked, then she looked surprised. Her equally blue eyes curved slightly as she looked at Mag and asked, “Father, who does this little cutie belong to?”

Mag smilingly said, “Our family. This is Kiddo.”

“Our family’s? Kiddo? Does this adorable little sister really belong to us?” Amy’s mouth opened slightly with disbelief.

“This is really awesome! I have a younger sister too!” Amy tossed her school bag onto a table at the side and ran to Kiddo with wide open arms. She picked up Kiddo, who was waiting for Amy to pick her up with outstretched arms.

“Big… Sister…” Kiddo looked at Amy and called her softly.
