Chapter 555 -555
In Derein’s castle, inside the dining room…
Reva is sleeping on the table, Adeline is watching Reva with a smile on her face, and Remil is sitting in one corner of the room, scared.
“Isn’t she cute? She is my daughter. Can you believe it?” Adeline asked with a smile as she turned towards Remil.
“D-Don’t kill me, my lord. Please, don’t kill me…” Remil’s body is shaking, and she has been murmuring the same words for the last two hours.
“Oi, come out of that pathetic state now. Dear is not going to kill you. If he wanted to kill you, he would’ve done so already. So, get out of that stupid delusion of death now,” Adeline spoke as she looked at Remil.
“R-Really? Master, won’t kill me? W-What if he doesn’t like me and decides to torture me again, just like he did in the academic grounds?” Remil asked as she crawled up to Adeline.
“He won’t kill you, believe me. If he wanted to kill you, why would he make you his slave, and you look really creepy when you are afraid,” Adeline spoke.
“Thank you, Miss. Adeline. I-I feel good now that you have cleared all my doubts,” Remil spoke as she stood up slowly and looked at Reva.
“Isn’t she cute?” Adeline asked.
“Wait… She is a Lock, and you are-“
“Yeah, I know,” Adeline spoke.
“Aren’t you guys born enemies? How come you have a daughter of the same family that wants to kill you from birth?” Remil asked with a confused expression.
“She is not my real daughter, not even Dear’s real daughter. My husband found her as a slave and bought her because he is too kind, you know,” Adeline spoke as she looked at Remil with a smile.
“Y-Yeah… I saw that,” Remil replied.
“That’s when this Lockhart girl thought that my husband is her father, and Dear accepted her because of his big heart,” Adeline spoke.
“What if her real father comes one day? What happens then?” Remil asked.
“He won’t… Lockhart Family is long gone. My family wiped every single one of them about thousands of years ago,” Adeline explained.
“Wait, then how did she survive? She doesn’t look like a thousand-year-old,” Remil asked with a confused expression.
“Her egg must’ve been buried underneath the soil, with some sort of preserving spell. Someone must’ve found it recently, and when they took it out of the soil, the preserving spell must’ve ended, and she came out as the result of hibernation,” Adeline explained.
“Ah… Now I understand,” Remil spoke.
“Mmnnnhhh~” suddenly, Reva started rubbing her eyes as she woke up from her sleep and sat up on the table.
She rubbed both of her eyes with both of her hands in a cute manner and looked at Adeline with a smile.
“Where is Papa?” Reva asked.
“Dear is busy with something, honey. Why don’t you talk with me?” Adeline spoke.
“Nooo… I want- hmmm… ? Who are you?” Reva asked as she looked at Remil.
“M-Me? I-I am… Remil. Hi, nice to meet you,” Remil spoke as she shook hands with Reva, but as soon as she grabbed Reva’s hand.
She felt an aura, and not some ordinary aura but a very terrifying and bloodlust-filled Aura.
Remil immediately backed off as she got scared from all the bloodlust that she was sensing from such a small child.
“Hahaha… Did you forget that she is an ancient Dragon?” Adeline asked as she laughed out loudly.
“H-Her bloodlust is too much… It’s like she will jump at me now and kill me mercilessly,” Remil spoke.
“Well, she won’t… So, don’t worry.” Suddenly, Anon’s voice resounded from behind.
Remil, Adeline, and Reva immediately turned their heads towards Anon and noticed that he was walking up to them with a smile on his face.
Suddenly, Remil’s whole body started shaking as she remembered everything that had happened with her in the academic grounds.
“Hello, Luv.” Anon spoke as he kissed Adeline on the lips.
“Hello, Dear.” Adeline replied as her cheeks turned red from the kiss.
“Papa… Is she my Mama?” Reva asked with a cute and innocent expression.
“Why would you think that?” Anon asked with a smile.
“My sister’s in the bad place told me that when a man and woman kiss, they become husband and wife. You are kissing her, is she my Mama?” Reva asked.
“Well, if you are counting every woman that I kissed as your mother, then you are going to have a problem counting your mothers, Luv.” Anon spoke as he slowly touched Reva’s cheek and pulled it.
“I don’t understand, Papa.” Reva spoke with a confused expression.
“You can call me Mama, Reva.” Adeline spoke as she smiled at her.
“Yaaay, Reva has Mama and Papa too… Reva is very happy. Mama, let’s go and play with the ball, okay?” Reva asked with a smile. 𝙡𝙞𝒓𝙚𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝓶
“Dear, can I go and play with Reva, Please?” Adeline asked Anon.
‘Why is she asking for his permission? She is the Queen of Dragons, and he is the chosen warrior of the Demons… how are they husband and wife in the first place?’ Remil thought as she looked at Adeline with a confused expression.
“Yeah, Yeah… Go and play outside the castle… We will leave for my house in a bit.” Anon spoke.
“Okay, Dear… Let’s go and play Reva.” Adeline spoke as she exited the room with Reva.
“Now, Now… We are alone huh…?” Anon asked as he looked at Remil with an evil smile.
“M-Master… I am very sorry for doubting your powers. I was a foolish demon. I hope you can find it in your big heart to forgive me.
Please master, Please Forgive me.” Remil spoke as she went down on her knees and begged for forgiveness.
“Well, you are my slave now. So, you will need some life force to keep yourself alive… Here.” Anon spoke as he placed his hand over Remil’s chest and started supplying some of his life force into her body.
“I have given you 1 year’s worth of life force… Enjoy.” Anon spoke.
“T-Thank you, master.” Remil replied.
