Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

This should have been a happy occasion, but things became complicated because Senis wasn't the only one who got pregnant; Lilia was pregnant too.

Because of Senis's pregnancy, Paul was unable to have sex with her. Lilia, who listened to Senis and Paul's nightly revelry, was also a normal woman, so she inevitably had a relationship with Paul.

In the letter, Lilia directly apologized to Wood, saying that she had seduced Paul. However, Wood was well aware that Paul was a lecherous scumbag, and although Lilia was wrong, she shouldn't be the sole scapegoat.

With such a major event happening at home, Wood couldn't possibly not choose to go home.

To get home as quickly as possible, Wood even spent a lot of money to hire the best carriage and returned home from the territory of Fituia that same day.

Loki left two months ago, so now their home is filled with their own family members.

When Wood returned home, the atmosphere was extremely tense. Senis had a face full of anger, while Paul, like a child who had done something wrong, squatted on the ground in a dogeza (a traditional Chinese slang term for a prostration or swearing).

Lilia had packed her bags and was ready to leave, but Rudy stopped her.

When Wood entered, everyone's attention was drawn to him.

When Senis saw Wood, she immediately ran over and hugged him, crying bitterly. As for Lilia, she lowered her head in guilt, not daring to look at Wood's face at all.

In this family, Lilia and Wood had the best relationship, but it was also for this reason that Lilia felt even more sorry for Wood.

"Wood, Mom has decided to separate from Paul. Are you planning to stay with me or with Paul?"

Senis and Paul often argued, but this time the conflict was clearly much more serious than Wood had imagined.

"Seneca, can you calm down first? Although Paul made a mistake, don't be too impulsive."

Moreover, you are now pregnant with your younger brother and sister. If you live alone, you simply won't be able to support them.

Lilia is the same. Even if you want to leave this family to atone for your sins, what about the child in your belly? She's my brother or sister too.

In fact, it was not unusual for noblemen to have multiple wives and concubines in the medieval world.

But the key point is that Senis is a follower of the Milis and adheres to strict religious rules (monogamy).

Senis was deeply in love with Paul, so even knowing he was a playboy, she still ended up with him.

Chapter 255 Two Filial Sons Who Bid Farewell to Their Father

Paul's actions gave Wood a real headache. From a human perspective, he should stand up for Senis and advise her to stay away from that scumbag Paul.

But if they did that, their entire family would definitely fall apart.

To resolve the current problem, someone must step forward to take the blame and quell Senis's anger.

It doesn't matter if it's Lilia or Paul; if Lilia comes out and admits her mistake, she will inevitably be kicked out of the house.

Lilia, who is pregnant, will find it difficult to survive alone in this world, and Wood, her half-brother or half-sister, may also not survive because of this.

If Lilia can't take the blame, then Paul will have to bear the brunt of it, since it was originally his fault.

Moreover, Wood felt that it was not unfair to Paul to take the blame. It's like now that the truth has come out, this guy has become mute, showing no sense of responsibility whatsoever.

“If Mother insists on separating from Paul, I will definitely stand by your side, since it is all Paul’s fault.”

However, I believe that while Lilia also made mistakes in this matter, as she is also a victim, we shouldn't vent all our anger on her.

Upon hearing the first half of Wood's sentence, Senis showed a satisfied expression, believing that her child was indeed on her side.

However, when she heard the second half of Wood's sentence, Senis's face showed obvious displeasure.

Senis believes Paul is at fault because her husband cheated on her, but Lilia, as his lover, is naturally also disliked by Senis.

"I want to ask Mother, what is Paul's personality like? If Lilia and Paul really had a relationship, who do you think would take the initiative?"

Then there is another question: if Paul wanted to do something to Lilia, would Lilia have any power to resist?

"Mother doesn't know, does she? Lilia was Paul's fellow student in swordsmanship, and Paul even attacked her when they were young, before Mother even knew Paul."

What Paul did to Lilia when he was young was revealed by Lilia to Wood in a letter.

Lilia didn't know why she would talk to a child like this, but incredibly, whenever she had something on her mind, Lilia would choose to write to Wood and confide in him, and this time was no exception.

Upon hearing what Wood said, Senis was stunned for a moment, then glared angrily at Paul, who was kneeling on the ground.

Based on Wood's analysis and considering Paul's past playboy personality, Senis genuinely felt that Paul might very well have forced himself on Lilia again.

While Lilia possessed some strength, she was clearly no match for Paul, a superior swordsman.

Paul, kneeling on the ground, saw Senis's angry face and wanted to explain something, but before he could finish speaking, Rudy kicked him to the ground.

Rudy did this because he received a signal from Wood.

Although he had little experience with picking up girls, the mature Rudy clearly understood that Wood's intention was to make the scumbag Paul take all the blame, only in this way could the family be prevented from breaking up.

Paul's character is what it is; he's always been a "scumbag," so it's not entirely unacceptable that he would do something like this.

The priority now is to keep Senis in check; otherwise, if she leaves while pregnant, it will be difficult to find her later.

Similarly, the same applies to Lilia. Although Lilia was also at fault in this matter, the child is innocent, and Wood and Rudy cannot let their unborn younger siblings pay for it.

So the two brothers were surprisingly in agreement: to kick the scumbag Paul out of the house first and quell Senis's anger.

Anyway, given Paul's flirting skills and Senis's love for him, it's only a matter of time before the scumbag returns home.

To vent Senis's anger, the two brothers then joined forces and gave their father a good beating.

Paul was a little confused at first, but as a seasoned player in the dating scene, he quickly understood Wood's intentions and began to take responsibility for his mistakes.

“Senes, come with me to the city of Roya in Fitoa. I’ll buy you a new house.”

You can rest and recuperate there, and I can take better care of you. Let Paul stay here alone to reflect on his actions; consider it his punishment.

Wood had amassed a small fortune by selling monster materials, so buying a small house in Roya City shouldn't be a problem.

The objective of shifting the focus of attention has been achieved. As for whether Paul can gain Senis's forgiveness, that depends on his own abilities.

Senis glanced at Paul on the ground, then touched her own belly, and finally decided to compromise and accept Wood's suggestion to move to Roya City.

While sitting in the carriage, Lilia looked at the silent Senis opposite her and finally couldn't bear the guilt in her heart, so she took the initiative to confess her mistakes.

However, Senis didn't seem surprised at all and said, "I know Paul very well. I knew this day would come, but I didn't expect it to be so soon."

And if he ultimately chooses to abandon you and the child in your womb, then I will despise him even more!

Since we know Paul would do something like this sooner or later, it seems more acceptable to have you as the target than some stranger, don't you think? Lilia.

“I used to worry that Wood and Rudy were too mature and wouldn’t care about things at home.”

But this incident has actually brought a sense of relief. Not only is the brothers very close, but they also care deeply about everyone in the family, including you, Lilia.

If we were to ask who Lilia is most grateful to this time, it would undoubtedly be Wood and Rudy.

From any perspective, she was a bad woman who destroyed other people's families, yet Wood and Rudy both chose to forgive her.

Especially Rudy, whom Lilia used to think was possessed by a demon, but now, looking back, she feels extremely ashamed.

The Grellat family's tolerance led Lilia to decide that no matter what the Grellat family might become in the future, she would make sure that the child in her womb would be loyal to them to the death, in order to repay their kindness.

At the same time, Lilia was quite clear about her position. She never thought of herself as the second wife in the family, but still regarded herself as a servant.

Chapter 256 Wood's Two Sisters

Wood traveled home from the territory of Fituia in just half a day because he rode at full speed the whole way.

But now, on the return journey, the same stretch of road took Wood and his group two full days to travel.

Because both Senis and Lilia were pregnant, Wood dared not let the carriage bounce too much along the way, fearing that it might harm his younger siblings.

Even driving the carriage at this speed, Rudy still felt it was too fast. He even used wind magic to stabilize the carriage along the way, worried that the long journey would affect the baby in his mother's womb.

The brothers' overreaction made Senis, who was already quite annoyed, burst into laughter. She eventually laughed and scolded, "At this rate, by the time we reach Roya City, we'll have already starved to death on the road."

Lilia and I are only one or two months pregnant. A little bumpy ride wouldn't be a problem, and we could even go into battle without any issues. You two are being overly cautious.”

Wood and Rudy's attentive care helped alleviate much of the depression caused by Paul's affair.

Senis realized then that her previous worries were completely unnecessary.

Although Wood and Rudy are mature, they clearly care a lot about their families. Judging from their current attitude, once the child in her belly is born, they will definitely be complete brother-obsessed or sister-obsessed.

After two days of travel, the Wood family finally arrived in Roya.

Wood used his savings to purchase a two-story property in town.

Senis didn't ask too many questions about the origin of Wood's wealth, because her two children were not only far more intelligent than their peers, but their abilities were also estimated to have long surpassed those of their parents.

After arriving in Roya City, Senis lived a very comfortable life. Although Paul followed her to Roya City, Senis did not decide to forgive him immediately, so he had to sleep on the streets every day.

Rudy planned to go to La Noah Magic University with Loki, but he was short of tuition fees, so he was eventually recommended by Wood to come to the Boreas family to serve as Alice's magic teacher.

Wood could have helped with the tuition fees, but after purchasing property in Roya City, his pockets were practically empty.

As for Wood himself, he moved away from the Boreas family and began living the life of an adventurer.

During this time, Alice and Lady Hilda tried to persuade him to stay, but Wood politely declined each time.

The reason is quite simple: Gilead has already taught him almost everything he needed to.

If Wood wants to continue to grow, he can only do so through his own efforts.

According to Kyrie Irvine, given Wood's swordsmanship talent and skill, she recommended that he go to the "Land of the Sword Saints".

If it were here or there, Wood might be able to grasp the true essence of the Sword God style.
