NOVEL NEXT Chapter 124
After spending half an hour in his inner chamber, Lennox walked out with a face as dark as a pit. He looked at Everly with a burning gaze, his complicated emotions were cocking inside him.
So the unidentified feelings he had when they first met aren't because there was a connection between them, but rather because they were similar.
They both were dead.
He had already noticed that Everly possessed an abnormal memory. With her low IQ, Everly should have forgotten what she had on breakfast. However, not just she remembered it well, she also remembers all the small details of years ago, coupled with her odd constitue, it's clear that there must be something out of place.
Soul recording. After death, one's soul could preserve its awareness for as long as it has originally lived. Lennox has lived for more than 500 years if added with his infant stage, which means that his soul could remain for about the same period of time. During that time, memories are no longer stored in the brain, rather, it is recorded within one's soul.
But that's for a honorable being with a mighty soul.
Everly, on the other hand, is a person who should not have been born, a fetus who died in the womb. The combination of a Love and a Gaia spirit theoretically should be impossible, but there she is, bouncing around like a rubber ball.
' With such a weak soul, how come she hadn't perished yet?- '
Just as he had these thoughts, Sapphire's voice, along with Everly, closed towards him.
" Daddy we want ice cream! "
" Everly wants ice cream too, a big cup of ice cream~ "
The two girls circled around him with sparkling eyes. Lennox turned to look at Ashel who was fidgeting on the side, asking indifferently.
" You want ice cream too? "
Ashel quickly nodded. His rubby round eyes were filled with expectations, looking like a white puppy waiting for his reward.
Lennox sighed, " fine, let's go get that ice cream "
Instantly, the three kids' faces bloomed with smiles. Everly raised her arms, demanding Lennox to carry her, the later did not bicker with the child and silently held her in his arms.
******
After returning to the town, Lennox ordered their ice cream and a few more dishes. The group sat on a round table on the first floor of the inn, attracting many gazes with their unusual appearances.
Everly refused to let go so she was currently seated on Lennox's lap, adorably eating mouthfuls of ice cream.
" Sapphire ", Lennox started, " little one told me you were admitted into a sect in Hell? "
Sapphire swallowed what was in her mouth and confirmed with a nod:" oh, yeah. A while back I was wandering around and mistakenly stumbled into an abandoned pocket dimension. With no idea how to get out, I started destroying that shit and, coincidently, a big shot came by and saw me burning with flames and thought that had some potential, so he asked me to be his pupil. At first I refused, but that bastard just stright out said he wouldn't let me out unless I agree, that's it "
Lennox frowned. Although he was dead, but his traces on his children should remain. Someone actually dared to blackmail his baby? Quite the guts he had.
" What's his name? "
Sapphire didn't notice his dark face, casually responding:" it was something like Gong Bai Nol, I don't know what kind of names is that, but he didn't seem to be a bad guy "
Translation: Gong Bai Nol= I got your daughter
' Damn you moutherfucker Satan! Still holding a grudge since that day!! '
Lennox felt complicated. On one hand, Satan is Sapphire's real ancestor, he will surely treat her well. But on the other hand, he doesn't want to give his daughter to be a heir for that skinny bastard.
" now that I think about it, he kind of resembles daddy "
" How so? " Ashel asked.
" You know, he had that type of manwhore face "
Lennox:"..."
I am disowning you.
Everly who was obediently eating since a while, suddenly raised her head and repeated:" manwhore! "
"..." ×3
You are disowned too.
Lennox wiped Everly's mouth with a tissue paper, fixed the few hair strands that fell on her face, then asked Sapphire.
" When are you leaving to Hell? "
There was no need to ask which gate of hell she was going to, since it's Satan, it's probably going to be the sixth one.
Sapphire had her fill and slumped back on the chair, she answered lazily:" I was planning on leaving next week, but since daddy is here I think it's better to leave after elder brother's wedding "
Lennox nodded, then as if weighing something in his mind, he paused for a good while. After finally making his decision, he rummaged through his pocket dimension and gathered a few weapons and mana crystals into a dimensional ring.
[ Note: pocket dimension is a real world that has been isolated and linked into a person, only those with higher level can creat one. Dimensional ring is like a key that allows someone to access a certain place in the pocket dimension. Both different from spacial ring and spacial bag that are used to store things ]
A dark flame burned on Lennox's hand for a second before disappearing and leaving a black ring in his hand. Lennox first put the ring near Sapphire before stretching out his hand.
" show me you teleportation talisman "
Sapphire was so excited seeing the dimensional ring that she strightword handed her talisman without thinking. She she took a peek into the dimensional ring, it was full with treasures. Sapphire was pleasantly surprised, she turned towards her father who was looking meaningfully at the teleportation talisman in his hand.
" Daddy, what are these for? "
Lennox responded casually:" for you, take them as an apology "
" Apology for what? " Sapphire was confused.
" For this " just as he said that, Lennox ripped the talisman in half and pushed it towardsher in a swift move. White light shined from the ripped talisman, it grew until it enveloped Sapphire then suddenly disappeared with the confused girl.
Ashel: ○_○
Lennox looked at his petrified child and a smile appeared on his usually cold face. He patted the young man on the head and explained.
" never trust a woman with your secret, no matter who she is "
Everly who was busy with food: ????
