Feeling a warm budding heat on my chest, I open my eyes from the land of darkness to the rays of light piercing through the room.
With her tiny head resting against my chest, Arkanos soft breathing hummed like music in my ear. Turning my attention to Lilith staring at me, she smiled. Passing her hands over my head, she whispered. "You got a light fever."
"Didn't know cultivators could still get fevers," I responded, making sure not to make any movement less I wake the dragon on my chest.
"the ones who keep fainting do." She mocked.
My lips twitched. Giggling into her palm, Lilith snuck off the bed. Walking to my side, she smirked. "I hope your comfy cuz this will be our life with a baby."
Glancing down at the little dragon, I smiled, "That's fine. We have time. Once the Gates are open, things are going to be a bit hectic, but after, we will be free."
"Seems like you are forgetting about the Shadow and King." Said Lilith and shook her head. "But something has me curious."
"And that is?"
"Why did Zariel think you would follow through? Is it not like you made a deal with him? Sure we owe him, but that would never really stop a devil-like you from screwing over someone they owe." She said, startling me for a bit.
Pondering over the answer, I sighed. "I made a deal, all the way at the beginning, to gain the ability of adaptation. If the organization needs me, I shall be there. " I answered, having only now thought of that deal from so long ago.
"So in case you refuse, you will be forced to accept," Lilith remarked. "A family of schemers."
Nodding in response, I sighed, "Seems like he really thought of every possibility. It's fine though, everything has a price, and Zariel paid a lot."
Drawing close to my lips, she smiled, "You almost sound like you have a conscience. I wonder if it's the deal talking or you."
Narrowing my gaze as her breath touched my lips, a pondering gleam filled my eyes, "Why the interest? You are not planning on doing something, are you?"
"Always," she claimed, stealing a kiss, she suddenly flicked Arkanos's head. Rushing away, I could hear the laughter as she raced to the bathroom.
"Papa is a meanie!" Arkanos cried with a bit of tear streaming over her cheeks. "But Arkanos needs a meanie."
"Oh? What's up?"
"Some high god bullied Arkanos."
"..."
"Papa?"
"..."
What the hell am I supposed to do? My god, I hope my kids aren't like me. Suppose they piss off a High God or even an Elder God. It's over.
"Umm, what was the name of this High God?" I bitterly asked, knowing there was zero hope of a fight.
"I think her name was Ty."
Widening my eyes, I shot up, stunning the little dragon on my chest. "Really? Was she around your height?"
"She was a bit taller. With long black hair,"
Is it black now? Guess that makes sense. She is of my blood now.
"She is a big fat bully," Arkanos said, tearing up.

She did almost kill Zeus. Although her being a bully sounds a bit off unless she was jealous. But how did she become a High God? I thought her cultivation restarted.
"She is your real sister Arkanos. you need to be nice and introduce yourself to her." I solemnly said. Finding no reason for them not to be friends or sisters.
Leaping out of my arms, Arkanos shook her head, "Never. Never!!! Ty is a big baddie. Arkanos will never!"
When the hell did she start talking in the third person. She didn't use to do that.
"Hey, Sene wanna join me, and oh? is something wrong?" Lilith asked in snow-white bathrobes.
"Little Typhoeus is back," I said, noticing the defiance on my little Arkanos.
"You think Hades or Nyx would send her here alone? Who is with her?
A chill suddenly shot down my spine as I recalled that ashen beast—the Mad Queen.
"Arkanos... Was there someone with her?"
"A woman with ashen hair and emerald eyes. She stopped Arkanos from getting beat up."
"Oh shit." I muttered, "This is the last place I want her. If she goes crazy, she could cross the wrong people."
"Melinoë is so cute, though. It's been so long since we spoke. Let's go pick her up. If I were her, I would have returned to the same spot." Lilith stated, drawing closer to me. "Look at you. Just gathering woman."
That damn chill once again return. Tracing down my crotch, I shuttered. "Baby, my eyes are only for you."
"I know you are lying, Sene. That is why I have a secret weapon, to defeat and punish you."She shamelessly claimed, pressing her lips against my cheek.
"Lilith, what did you do?" I hesitantly asked.
She smiled, shaking her head, "You will see." she whispered, pulling back to my dismay. I swear she is getting worse. Post torture Lilith was a hassle. She was untamed and a bit of a bully. This version seems even worse. Now she is just crazier.
"You head over to pick up Melinoë; I have to head to Yu Lans Palace and start some of the planning. Come over when you got a chance."
"Will do, but I think Loki may make an appearance. I still have to talk to the Shadow and King." I noted a bit grimly.
Releasing an annoyed breath, she sighed, "Fine. Just show when you can. I need help with this."
Taking her leave, I could not help notice the faint tension brewing between her brow. I glanced back to the little firecracker brewing with steam and narrowed my gaze.
"Go get dressed."
Waving her off, I snapped and changed into some casual garbs. Making my way out of my room, I could not help but notice the two socks placed on the doors just across from me.
"I need a new place to live. Everyone is having more action than me." I muttered, making my way down the stairs, only to be met with the grim expression of Yu Jing.
"Who was that?" She asked, obviously inquiring about the attack on Arkanos.
"My first daughter." I cheerfully declared, eying the overprotective Yu Jing. Honestly, I was finding myself liking her more and more. Shame she may have to die. But it will really be up to Aiza.
Skimming past her, I glanced at the table filled with breakfast, "I'm taking out, Arkanos to me, my first daughter. Anyone wanna join?"
"I will," said Sig with two large bags under his eyes. "I need to get me some. It's been far too long. I swear I am going to screw you over, Kurt. Just as I did my Master."
