Otherwise, you can find another savior.

There is no infant state among British fairies.

The situation was similar for Ash. Although she had drifted to Orkney as a baby, the Rain Clan Princess who raised her had no experience and could only raise her like a human.

"We know, we know, humans born in factories are raised with magical nutrients until they can eat normal food." Teterlot raised his hand and answered.

"That's just the special kind of people in Britain," Shiomi said. "Normally, humans are born from their mother's womb and, during their infancy, are unable to eat, relying on their mother's milk for life-sustaining nutrients."

"Mother's... milk?" Jian had never seen that kind of thing.

Strictly speaking, there are dairy products in Britain, but they come from imaginary species similar to cows. It is said that they were discovered to be drinkable by humans raised by fairies, and then became one of the foods of Britain.

It is also an important raw material for desserts.

"Uh……"

Xijian thought that Jian would be able to connect the dots immediately, but seeing that she was confused, he could only awkwardly pull her a few steps aside and whisper something in her ear. Only then did Jian blush and hold her chest.

"Is that so?" She stared at Xijian strangely. "My husband actually likes this place very much. Every time he comes here..."

"Don't talk nonsense, that's different!" Xijian hurriedly interrupted her "dangerous" remarks.

"...Really?" Jian still didn't believe it.

Tetrot's curiosity was about to explode. She kept asking, "What? What are you talking about?"

Then, Ash leaned over again, pulled Tetrot aside and whispered something to him.

——But Shiomi’s personal preferences were omitted.

"How amazing! Those humans from pan-human history!" Teterlot exclaimed again, his voice so loud that it shook the snow off the treetops on the roadside.

Shiomi began to regret why she didn't interrupt the topic earlier.

Although Tetrot's ability to continue following them meant that Ash had more friends to talk to, some topics often became awkward due to unnecessary "sharing".

For example, knowledge about breastfeeding.

But speaking of this, he suddenly remembered that when he adopted Kallen, the child was almost the same as Bawan Xi now.

Karen's mother was seriously ill during her lifetime and almost died just by giving birth. She was unable to feed the baby and was taken care of by a wet nurse hired by the church.

After Shiomi took over the custody, he adopted a similar approach and did not leave Italy until Kallen was two years old.

Thanks to this experience, he is still confident about raising Bawan Xi.

Especially, this time Jian is by my side.

And when Bawan Xi grows up and can walk, there will be Tetelotte to play with him -

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but gasp.

"It seems like I subconsciously treated this guy as a pet... After all, given his size, it's really disrespectful."

He was muttering to himself, not noticing that he was taking such big steps that he left Ash and Tetrot behind.

He didn't stop and wait until he heard Tetrot calling out.

"Are you thinking about something?" Jian followed and complained with a little dissatisfaction.

"I'm thinking about the future... After all, we can't let Tetrot live in the same room with us, so we have to prepare an empty room for her." Xi Jian answered truthfully, "Also, there's Bawan Xi's bed. I think a rocking bed would be better. And then—"

He spoke fluently and quickly, and Jian was stunned.

Chapter 90 Future Plans

"The Great Disaster is still 400 years away... If my premonition is correct, this disaster will be enough to destroy at least % of the British elves, and even the foundation for the birth of the next generation will be wiped out."

After returning to the library, Tetrot went to tidy up his own room, while Ash talked to Shiomi alone about what to do next.

"I'm afraid Reineke and Hector will not be spared either." Shiomi said as he sat on the edge of the bed and fixed Bawan Xi's hair.

Jian was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head: "Most likely."

"Since this was originally a truncated event, a Lostbelt, I believe the final cause of this world's truncated existence was the next great catastrophe. The recurring disasters of the past weren't enough to alert the elves, so twelve thousand years after Britain's birth, an even greater catastrophe erupted, leading this world to a future without a future."

Shiomi said quietly, and told something to Ash.

"When I arrived in this Lostbelt 2000 years in the future, Britain had become a deserted island. Apart from plants, there was no trace of life."

"So I plan to use the magic of the Imagination Tree to allow Britain to be reborn after the next great disaster." said Ash.

"What's the specific method?"

"Let all the dead fairies be reborn not as the 'next generation,' but as the 'current generation.' In the process, they will be implanted with special Command Spells, collecting the magical power known as the 'existence tax.'" Ash looked at Shiomi. "This time, I intend not to govern, but to dominate Britain."

When she said this, her blue eyes were like ice, cold to the core.

The thousand years of building and governing Londinium were not wasted.

Jian learned a lot during that time, especially how to govern a country.

Although, this time it is no longer a warm and affectionate "governance".

"In other words, you plan to become the queen?" Xijian smiled.

"That's right. There's no need to continue playing house with the goblins called 'prosperity together'. Goblins and humans just need to obey me, accept my rule, or die." said Ash.

Shiomi smiled wryly and said, "Don't be so stubborn. I know you can definitely bring about the rebirth of Britain and make the fairies live under your 'rule'. But... can you really become so cold and ruthless, sitting on the throne, issuing harsh laws, and exercising control over life and death without blinking an eye?"

"...Of course." Jian hesitated for half a second.

"Then how about starting with me?" Shiomi said, "I don't intend to give up becoming the king of Britain, and Britain doesn't need two kings. Although you can't kill me, you must have a way to seal me."

"Hmm..." Jian was stunned by the question, then tried to explain, "I originally planned to rule with you, which is what is called 'co-rule of the two kings'."

"The fact that you could come up with such an answer already shows your inadequacy. The king should be the absolute and only existence, how can another king be allowed to exist?" For the first time in her life, Xijian used such a harsh tone to criticize Ash's naivety.

Jian's face gradually turned red, and she slammed the bed angrily: "Then, then what do you say? I think my plan is perfect! Unless you come up with a better plan! Otherwise, you will sleep on the floor tonight!"

Then, Shiomi sat down and hugged her, with their foreheads touching each other.

"The plan is perfect, but one thing cannot be denied: even after witnessing so many deaths and lives, you remain the same pure-hearted person. Forcing yourself to kill will only torture your heart and keep you awake at night." Xi Jian said softly, "So... leave the rest to me."

"But you just said that it's naive for two kings to rule together..." Jian looked at him resentfully, feeling that he had come back to the same point.

"It is naive to have two kings rule together, but what if the two kings fight each other?" Xijian smiled.

"We...become enemies?" Jian was puzzled.

Xijian shook his head. "You are merely an enemy in name only. In name only, I will be your enemy king, conquering all of Britain and slaughtering every goblin I see, as well as any human who refuses to submit. All you have to do is stop me from killing all the goblins, and force them to submit to your rule in order to survive."

"What's the point of doing this? Isn't it just changing the enemy from disaster to you?" Ash looked at him in confusion.

What I do is essentially the same as what I do as a savior.

It's easy to do, but I don't understand why.

"When Britain is reborn and the Lostbelt is transformed into the Lostworld, there will be no more disasters on the island," Shiomi declared calmly. "I will be Britain's only existing, yet clearly visible, 'disaster,' and I will endlessly slaughter the fairies on the island."

"Could it be..." Jian suddenly understood.

The reason why the goblins still want to do evil all the time when facing disasters is that they are willing to destroy the peace in front of them to satisfy themselves.

One of the reasons is that these disasters are like natural disasters, without will or motivation, so the goblins will not realize the need to suppress the disasters.

What Xijian wants to do is to make the fairies live in clear and visible fear forever, either being slaughtered by him over and over again, or being loyal to Zhi and seeking a certain amount of protection.

"Is this what you said... a way to help me maintain Britain?" Ash couldn't find an angle to refute.

She was smart enough to see the feasibility of this approach.

The strongest existences in all of Britain are her and him.

"Or rather, I've wanted to do this for a long time." Xi Jian had an expression of eagerness to try. "If it weren't for you, my patience with the British fairies would have been exhausted in the first 300 years."

“…” Jian rubbed his forehead slightly.

If my husband does it, he can indeed complete the task perfectly.

Apart from anything else, just commanding the Royal Guards and the Round Table Army in Londinium and wielding the butcher knife against all goblins without any explanation, this kind of thorough decisiveness and cold-bloodedness are things that she does not possess in any way.

Even if Jian wanted to imitate, he would probably only be able to imitate it in name only.

only……

This would be their true separation, not the days or even months they had been apart in Londinium.

She stayed in the rear while he fought at the front.

It was just close collaboration.

Once this "plan" is launched, we will only be able to meet on the battlefield.

Even if he would always wield the butcher knife against the goblins under her command, he must feel extremely lonely without being able to have a normal conversation with his beloved.

"It seems that this is the only perfect way."

She reached out, touched Bawan Shian's sleeping face, and accepted Shiomi's idea.

Chapter 91: Small Changes

Morgan stood up slowly, the hot spring water sliding down her jade-like skin. She raised her arms, untied her long hair, sat on the rocks beside the hot spring pool, and casually combed her hair with her hands.

"Here it is."

A voice that she recognized without thinking rang out. She slowly raised her eyes and looked sideways. Shiomi was walking towards her through the bushes.

The fine snow covering the branches and leaves fell off and hung on his robe.

"Come over and soak in the hot springs for a while, do you want to join us?" Morgan asked with a smile.

"I can't, and you just finished taking a bath."

Shiomi walked over to her and knelt down, took the hair from her hands, picked up the wooden comb beside her, and combed her hair.

"No one says you can't soak in a hot spring a second time after you've done it once." Morgan massaged his shoulders and neck comfortably.

The fatigue of her body and mind had long been relieved, and she couldn't help but gently stir the hot spring water with her feet.

"Let's talk about it next time." Xijian leaned over from behind Morgan's shoulder and kissed him on the face.

He combed Morgan's hair carefully.

After returning here, her hair had unknowingly lost its golden color and turned as white as fresh snow, with the ends still retaining an icy blue tint like a memory from the past.

Because there are too many fairies who have seen the Savior Jian.

In order to prevent the fairies from realizing this, she changed her appearance and decided to call herself by her original name "Morgan" from now on, and sealed the name "Ash".

Under Shiomi's guidance, he received training on his speech and behavior, and is now a completely different person.

Even Tetrot felt like he had just met her.

But for Shiomi, he just watched her change from one familiar appearance to another familiar appearance.

And finally understood the cause and effect of everything.

"You've been staring at my face in a daze lately, and you've been thinking about something while combing your hair," Morgan said softly. "We decided this together. But there's still plenty of time now. Everything hasn't even started yet, so there's still time to reconsider."

"No, I just feel like I'm in another world, seeing you become like this." Xijian explained truthfully.

Morgan's face flushed slightly, and he muttered in a somewhat concerned tone, "It's just adjusting the nature of my inner magic, causing my appearance to change slightly. I'm still me, and you know that better than anyone else."

"I know." Xi Jian responded, "That's why I feel even more emotional."

The temperature around the hot springs is not low, and the daily snowfall in Orkney tends to melt as it falls, unless the snowfall becomes more powerful.

He saw some snow falling on his shoulders and bent down to kiss it. Morgan felt very happy.

"If you're not here to soak in the hot springs, what are you doing here?" she asked.

"Teterlotte has made the new clothes we promised. But you were not in the library, so I came out to look for you on her behalf." Xijian smoothed her hair with her fingers and explained with a smile.

Morgan suddenly realized, "I see. So you left Bawan Xi in her care?"

"Don't say it so harshly. I just want Tetrot to play with Bawan Xi for a while." Xijian explained with a pout.

"But I have a question... It's been 200 years since Bawan-shi turned into a baby, but she looks about the same height as Tetrot. Whether as a human or a fairy, her growth is a bit slow."

"In your opinion, apart from this, are there any other abnormalities in her?" Xi Jian asked.

"Nothing else, just the magic circuits, and the body's aptitude and potential. They look pretty good." Morgan shook his head.

Shiomi thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, I didn't expect it to be like this. Perhaps it was the price I paid for rashly adopting that method, causing her to be reborn as a new life and changing her essence."
