Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 749 - 750 Yuan’er’s Journey p2

’Since Mommy was willing to take Sister Mengxi home, it meant that their relationship must have become very close~!’

’My Grand plan might already be accomplished!’

’It seems that my recent sacrifices, giving up cakes and lollipops to save time for helping out, were effective!’

Thinking this, Yuan’er felt a sense of accomplishment.

Furthermore, To get along well with her future family, Yuan’er had already started brainstorming on how to take care of Mengxi in the future.

’Let her taste the special snacks of our Wind City, hehe~’

The little girl boasted silently in her heart.

Seeing this, Yumo had no choice but to pinch the little one’s face, bringing her thoughts back to reality, and continued giving instructions:

"Now, Mengxi might sleep for a while. So, during this time, I’m counting on you to take good care of her."

"Mm-hm, don’t worry Mommy, leave it to me!"

Yuan’er, with her hand on her hip, confidently patted her chest:

"Yuan’er guarantees to complete the mission!"

"Mm, I believe Yuan’er can do it."

"Oh, by the way, Mommy..."

While enjoying Yumo’s caresses, it seemed Yuan’er remembered something, slowly raising her head, her eyes filled with anticipation, meeting Yumo’s crimson gaze.

Yuan’er didn’t speak, just pursed her lips, silently maintaining eye contact with Yumo.

Though silent, How could Yumo, who knows Yuan’er so well, not understand her daughter’s thoughts?

’This little one’

It was clear she wanted to get something off her chest, yet seemed somewhat reluctant to speak up directly.

Facing her shy little daughter, Yumo smiled indulgently and then squatted down in front of Yuan’er to ask:

"What’s the matter, Yuan’er? Is there something you want to talk to Mommy about?"

"Mhm."

Like an adorable little bunny, Yuan’er nodded repeatedly.

Then, under the watchful gaze of Yumo, who seemed to understand what was coming, the little girl lifted the fluffy little white dragon from her embrace and presented it in front of Yumo.

The next moment,

Yuan’er’s sweet voice reached Yumo’s ears,

"Mommy! Can I, can I take little Meliora back with me?!"

Yuan’er’s eyes sparkled with stars, asking expectantly.

In fact,

After her Mommy asked her to pack her bags to visit her Grandpa and Grandma in the Wind City, Yuan’er began pondering a serious question: whether or not she should take Meliora with her?

Logically, Meliora was part of the Luminous Royal Academy, even considered something like a ’Sacred Dragon Heart’? (Don’t ask how Yuan’er knew this; the answer is lollipops~)

Such a status made Meliora seem unsuitable to just take back with her.

However, Meliora was her first truly close and fun friend, and Yuan’er really didn’t want to leave her behind.

Moreover,

Meliora often mentioned something about the headmaster not wanting her to leave, Essentially, she just didn’t really want to go...

Thus, Yuan’er’s heart was torn, unsure whether she should take Meliora away or not.

But then, recalling what Grandpa Sebastian taught her, Yuan’er quickly made up her mind.

——"Miss Yuan’er, you must remember, you are Lady Yumo’s child, you don’t need to compromise, never demean yourself, just do what you want. Besides, you’re still a child, it’s okay to be a bit selfish"——

Sebastian’s original intention was to encourage Yuan’er not to be bullied, like if someone took her lollipop at the academy, she should take it back by force if necessary.

Unfortunately, Yuan’er seemed to have misunderstood.

So, on the eve of departure, the little one knocked out the Dean without a word and brought little Meliora in front of Yumo.

Of course, Yumo was completely unaware of these details.

Knowing how wild her little daughter could be, it’s uncertain how Yumo would react.

At least for now, to Yumo, Yuan’er simply wanted to bring a friend home for fun.

With a slight smile and without much hesitation, Yumo nodded decisively:

"Sure, take little Meliora back with you for a visit. I believe Meliora will love it"

"Yayyy~ Mommy is the best~!"

With her Mommy’s approval, Yuan’er revealed a radiant and excited smile.

However,

Compared to Yuan’er’s happiness, the little white dragon held aloft obviously did not share the same feelings. Learning she might be heading towards what she considered a ’den of demons’, the heart of the Sacred Dragon Queen Meliora was filled with despair. Her little face instantly darkened, her dragon eyes filled with a hopeless despair.

’It’s all over,’

’All over...’

’That’s the lair of the Abyssal Demons... Going there? How could one possibly survive? Surely to be devoured clean by the Abyssal Demons, wuuuuuuuuuuah...’

If not for the sake of maintaining the dignity that befits the dragons, Meliora would probably have already turned into a sobbing little white dragon. Even so, Meliora’s eyes still couldn’t help but moisten, tears seeming ready to spill out at any moment...

However,

Just as Meliora was about to lose control, the black-haired girl in front of her was silently watching her with a strange look. For a moment, Meliora felt as if she was in the depths of the abyss, her spine chilling, and a wave of terror struck her, forcing the tears back under the girl’s intimidating gaze.

Yumo was quite protective.

Her own child so looked forward to bringing Meliora back, yet if Meliora were to cry and sulk, it would surely impact Yuan’er greatly. Wishing for ’good friends’ to create as many beautiful memories as possible, Yumo hoped Yuan’er could keep those memories alive.

Thus, a glance filled with a hint of warning fell upon Meliora.

Patting Meliora’s head, Yumo chuckled softly, speaking in a meaningful tone:

"Going back would be good too. It could avoid many dangers... After all, staying in Anvika right now is not a good idea, oh~, you might accidentally die~"

Although her tone was as gentle as ever, it subtly contained Yumo’s chilling menace.

The excited Yuan’er didn’t notice, but Meliora, with her sharp senses, picked up on the murderous intent in Yumo’s tone, along with the thick threat...

At that moment, Meliora’s heart almost stopped beating.

"So, going to little Yuan’er’s place for a visit, Meliora should be very happy, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!!"

Faced with a question where the wrong answer could mean death, the survival-driven Meliora didn’t hesitate to frantically nod her little dragon head.

’To go might mean being toyed to death by a demon ancestor’

’But, not to go? I might be swallowed whole by this demoness right now...’

Meliora wanted to live a bit longer.

Under Yumo’s ’gentle’ gaze, Meliora was forced into an overly excited state! Once she escaped Yumo’s grasp, she excitedly danced around Yuan’er, constantly making happy ’ao wuu wuu’ noises, looking quite delighted.

Seeing such a joyous Meliora, Yuan’er’s last shred of concern vanished, and she excitedly embraced the little white dragon, affectionately rubbing Meliora’s face:

"Hehe, I knew Meliora would like it~"

The caressed Meliora, meanwhile, kept a wary eye on the smiling black-haired girl nearby.

Because, While she was being affectionate with Yuan’er, a message filled with gentle yet deadly threats had already been transmitted to Meliora’s brain through the nearby blood butterflies.

—"Don’t make my little angel unhappy, otherwise... I’ll just have to stew you~"—

At that moment,

Meliora fully realized what it meant by the hardship of dragon life.

She, Had it so tough…
