"Like Kanina? What do you mean?" Because she arrived late, and for some other reason, Miral didn't know anything about Kanina, Lu Ming's daughter.
"Kanina is Lu Ming and Yusaha's daughter. She just came from the future." Seeing that Miral was still unaware of Kanina's situation, Sham had no choice but to explain.
"But my sister already..."
“We don’t know what happened either, but she is the daughter that both Lu Ming and Yusaha acknowledge! That will not change.”
"So, is this Amelia also Lu Ming's daughter? And who is her mother? It can't be Yusaha, who's already dead, can it?"
"I don't know. Never mind. Lu Ming will tell us himself when the time comes. Let's think about how to calm him down!" Compared to others, Lu Ming was more important to Lily. So she didn't want Lu Ming to be angry with her, and said helplessly.
“Give him a massage at night. He’s still quite weak lately, and the competition in a few days hasn’t been canceled. He still has to participate, so let’s not let him overwork himself or indulge in any more pleasures.” Sham glanced at the silver pendant in Miral’s hand and sighed.
Then Sham said to Miral, "Tonight, Miral, you go and give him a massage. Even if he gets eaten, it's acceptable. After all, it's his first time, so he won't go too far."
"Eh~!!" (To be continued.)
Chapter 43 - Amelia's Mask
Night fell in a secret place in the city of Paris, where several undead, much like wandering spirits, were talking about something.
But the sudden sound of footsteps startled them, and they hurriedly drew their weapons, cautiously looking towards the direction from which the footsteps were coming.
Only when a woman dressed in a black dress and wearing a black wolf mask emerged from the darkness did they lower their guard, hurriedly bow, and say, "Lady Amelia!"
"Hmm!" Amelia walked gracefully to the only chair in the room, sat down, and then asked the wandering spirits, "Have you discovered anything?"
The wandering spirits exchanged glances, then reported one by one: "Many of our compatriots have been captured by the Miracaesars and taken to Tutankhamun's prison in the city."
“Some members of the Cathedral of the Deep are still hiding in the civilian district of Paris. I once saw the figure of a Deep Curse, although it hasn’t been massacring any humans here recently.”
"The nobles here have begun negotiating with the Undead Legion, Lothric, and other forces, and they seem to be trying to get rid of us and the Cathedral of the Deep."
"The Grand Duke of Erebus warned all the nobles who attended the banquet and went into the cellar, including the one from the Undead Legion, to forget everything they saw, or they would be hanged!"
"This morning, the third prince of Miracaissa summoned the nobles who attended the banquet but refused to join their plans, along with a minister of Miracaissa, to the outskirts of the city. He attempted to warn them that they would die if they did not join by using the pus of man and something from another world to fight. However, it turned into a joke because a guard was infected with the pus of man. Coupled with the Grand Duke's warning to those nobles, they were completely reduced to clowns."
After listening to the wandering spirits' report, Amelia laughed and exclaimed, "That arrogant guy really is an idiot. He even managed to mess up this. He's really something!"
After saying that, she turned to the other wandering spirits and said, "Go and tell those nobles who are in charge of negotiating with us in Londor that the Undead Legion will not listen to them. Even if the Undead Legion can help them, the first thing the Undead Legion will do after they summon them here is to kill those of them who have already made contact with the Abyss!"
The wandering spirits paused for a moment, then asked, "Lady Amelia, isn't this a bit inappropriate? Given your relationship with that Undead Legion leader in the city, you could easily win over the Undead Legion members who haven't yet been corrupted by the Abyss to Londor's side. Why leave them in the Temple of Farron, making them continue to kill corrupted Undead Legion members over and over again?"
Amelia slowly removed her mask, revealing her delicate and beautiful face.
She looked at the wandering spirits and smiled slightly, saying, "Because only when they die can the one in the city fall into the abyss more easily. Moreover, every member of the Undead Legion knows that falling into the abyss is the final destination for each of them!"
-----------------------------------
The next morning, Lu Ming climbed out of his warm bed, being careful not to wake Miral who was sleeping next to him, and staggered to the bathroom to wash up.
While brushing my teeth in the bathroom, I suddenly noticed a dark ring on my chest in the mirror!
Startled awake, Lu Ming looked down and discovered that he didn't have the Dark Ring on his chest, but he could definitely see it in the mirror.
"What the hell?" Lu Ming asked in confusion. He quickly brushed his teeth and ran back to his room.
Miral had already woken up.
Seeing the strange expression on Lu Ming's face, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"I don't have anything on my chest, do I?" Lu Ming asked, pointing to his chest.
"No! What's wrong?" Miral half-opened her eyes, glanced at Lu Ming's chest, and shook her head when she saw that there was nothing there.
Hearing Miral's answer, Lu Ming breathed a slight sigh of relief. But he couldn't understand why he saw a dark ring on his reflection in the mirror.
"Help me comb my hair. It's a mess right now, and Sham and Lily will laugh at me." After standing up and being dazed for a while, Miral said to Lu Ming.
Helpless, Lu Ming had no choice but to comb his new fiancée's hair. However, having been startled by the sight in the mirror earlier, Lu Ming couldn't help but laugh and say, "I remember when we first met, your hair was a mess, but you didn't seem embarrassed at all. Why are you so concerned about that now?"
“I’m your fiancée now, a noble baron, not some strange illegitimate child anymore. Of course I have to pay attention to my makeup for you! Otherwise, I’ll embarrass you and get scolded by Sham again.”
"Did she mention you?" Lu Ming, who was only combing Miral's hair, paused slightly and asked with some doubt.
"The day before yesterday, I was criticized for not eating well at the dinner table..."
"I see..."
Fearing that Lu Ming would question Sham, Miral quickly said, "She was actually doing it for your and my own good, so please don't be angry, okay?"
"I'm not angry. Are you getting the wrong idea?"
So you think I should be the one being talked about?
"Hehehe." Seeing that Miral herself was getting angry, Lu Ming couldn't help but laugh, and then hugged Miral in his arms.
Lying in Lu Ming's arms, Miral didn't speak, but quietly felt the love of her future husband.
"Perhaps, I, an immortal being, shouldn't be with you."
Why do you say that?
"What if I become a ghost? Every undead ends up..."
Lu Ming suddenly kissed Miral, silencing her.
"I won't let you say such things. I will help you. Whether it's this curse or anything else, I will help you!"
"Ah."
-----------------------------------
At 7:30, everyone was seated in the restaurant, waiting for the somewhat shy Wang Na to set out the breakfast.
As a result, Artus and Saldallo arrived instead.
Lu Ming's expression turned sour when he saw the guy who had come to freeload a meal and was about to drag him to the Helen Forest to catch magical beasts.
"You two go catch monsters, go catch them, why do you have to drag me along? I want to spend the whole day with my loved ones!" When he saw Artus and Saldallo snatch away the breakfast that Wanna was going to give to Miral and Sham, Lu Ming's attitude towards the two guys was quite hostile.
Artus stuffed a large piece of cake made by Wangna into Lu Ming's hand, then pointed at him with his fork and said, "Do you remember I'm an earl? You have no right to refuse!"
This infuriated Lu Ming. He thought to himself, "If it weren't for this awful competition you organized, who would have ended up at that damned banquet? And who would have incurred that damned Third Prince's wrath?"
Unfortunately, just as Artus Lecoq said, Lu Ming did not have the right to refuse.
What puzzled Lu Ming was why the two of them were catching monsters at this time. If it were during the group stage, they could use the excuse of fearing the monsters would be exhausted. But there were only the semi-finals left! Each of them could just play two matches. Why bother catching monsters?
As a result, he only asked one question, and Saldallo told him some very bad news!
"Because this tournament is so popular, both our Third Prince and the Second Prince in Tartarus have requested additional matches, turning the semi-finals into a round of sixteen!"
"What did you say?! The Round of 16?! Aren't you the organizer? How can you do this?" Upon hearing this news, Lu Ming was shocked and immediately asked Count Artus Le Cod, who looked helpless.
"Both dukes and the two princes are putting pressure on me. What am I supposed to do?"
"But this can't be done like this, can it?!"
“I know the consequences are bad, but the fact that top players like you and I have taken two spots in the semifinals has made most of the audience very unhappy. Moreover, the audience is demanding a tiebreaker, and those players who lost in the group stage are also saying they plan to send their relatives to participate in the tiebreaker to crush the four of us!” Artus Lecord said somewhat fearfully when he saw that Lu Ming was angry.
"Tch!" Knowing that things were beyond repair, Lu Ming had nothing more to say. He could only channel his grief and anger into his appetite, devouring the cake in a few bites before forcibly dragging Saldallo and Artus Lecode away from his house.
Lacking the energy and knowledge to train another magical beast, Kanina and Ella could only watch enviously as Lu Ming dragged Saldal and Artus Lecord along, who were still shouting, "Let me have another piece of cake!" Because the two of them might very well receive guidance from Lu Ming!
Just as they stepped outside, Lu Ming and his two companions encountered a girl wearing a black dress.
"Are you going out of town? If you don't mind, take me with you!" Just as Saldallo and Artus were wondering who this girl was, she suddenly said to Lu Ming.
Lu Ming casually tossed a silver wolf-biting pendant to the girl, then dragged Saldalo and Artus toward the city gates. He added, "Come on if you want to keep up, you brat. And don't give back what you gave me so easily!"
The girl caught the pendant and laughed. She brushed aside her long black hair, put the pendant around her neck, and followed Lu Ming and the other two.
"I see!"
"Ha! You brat!" Seeing the girl follow him, Lu Ming laughed and scolded her.
Saldallo and Artus, who were being dragged along by Lu Ming by the back of their collars, were puzzled when they saw the girl who looked somewhat like Kanina laugh happily after Lu Ming jokingly scolded her.
"Little girl, who are you?"
"Yes! Do you know each other? And why did Lu Ming give you his family crest?"
Saldalo and Artus Lecode couldn't help but ask the girl out of curiosity.
But to their surprise, the answer they received shocked them and landed them in a rather troublesome situation.
"I am Amelia Lu from Londor." (To be continued.)
Chapter 44 - Capturing Monsters or Going on a Picnic?
Holding the Weilong Bow in their hands and carrying a bag of ordinary arrows on their backs, Lu Ming and Amelia walked through the dark Helen Forest with their two children in tow.
The dense trees block out the sun, making Helen Forest appear like dusk even during the day, with some of the surrounding bushes obscuring the view.
If it weren't for the large number of people and the fact that Lu Ming and Amelia were both quite strong, Viscount Saldallo, who had the memory of being wiped out by the Dark Curse, probably wouldn't have dared to set foot in the Helen Forest again!
"Were you raised by Lily?" Walking at the front, Lu Ming looked around to make sure he didn't miss any prey while talking to Amelia.
“Yes, I was raised by Lily’s mother since I was little. My mother always stayed at the magic academy with Yusaha’s mother and hardly ever came to see me.” Amelia said somewhat angrily as she recalled the past.
"I see."
During his conversation with Amelia, Lu Ming learned that she was his and Miral's daughter, a year younger than Kanina, and had grown up by Lily's side. Later, she joined Londor with Lily.
Although Lu Ming still didn't know why, given Amelia's birthplace, he had married the Sachi sisters instead of only intending to marry Miral, he was completely outmaneuvered by Eldridge, regardless of whether it was Kanina's or Amelia's side!
Having been devoured on both sides, Lu Ming began to worry. However, he wasn't afraid. Under the influence of the wolf blood, he had no other thought than to kill Eldridge. Running away was futile; only resistance was the only way to solve the problem once and for all.
Just as Lu Ming and Amelia were chatting, Artus Lecoq suddenly noticed something in the bushes not far away watching them. He quickly called out to Lu Ming, "Hey! Lu Ming, there's something watching us over there!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Ming immediately looked over there and saw what appeared to be some kind of blue Pokémon. He casually tossed over the bait he had prepared beforehand, and the little guy immediately bit into the bait, which Lu Ming had coated with some sleeping powder from a Vileplume, and fell to the ground with a thud, fast asleep.
As Lu Ming approached the Pokémon, he picked it up and exclaimed, "So it's Wooppo!"
With its large head, blue body consisting of only a pair of hind legs and a large, flat tail, and two antennae with only one segment, it is clearly the water-type Pokémon Woop.
"Who wants it?" Holding the sticky, slippery Upo, Lu Ming walked over to his daughter Amelia, Saldallo, and Artus and asked them.
As a result, apart from Amelia being willing to raise Wobo, both Zaldaloro and Artus said that Wobo looked too weak and asked Lu Ming to find other monsters or Pokémon.
Seeing this, Ubo naturally belonged to Amelia.
To Lu Ming's surprise, Amelia took out an empty Poké Ball and put Woop into it.
When they saw Amelia collect the basin-sized Pokémon Wobbul into a small ball the size of a fist, Saldallo and Artus were immediately astonished! However, out of fear and caution regarding Amelia's origins, they dared not ask Lu Ming or Amelia about the Poké Ball too much.
"Dad, what skills does Wobbuffet have?" After releasing Wobbuffet from its Poké Ball and holding it in her arms, Amelia asked Lu Ming, who could tell her what Wobbuffet was.
