Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 825 - 826: A Slightly Uneasy Premonition

4/5

Pipi, who had been looking forward to watching his little sisters being educated by his eldest sister, finally started twitching his eyebrows in disbelief after waiting for a few minutes, staring at the scene in front of him.

You see, when he had previously kneaded his eldest sister’s face, he was immediately retaliated against by her, causing his buttocks to blossom once again.

Obviously, she is the big sister of the family, and she has her own dignity. Her face cannot be casually kneaded.

Pipi naturally came to this conclusion, but why?

Why is it that they can knead her face for so long without any consequences?!

Pierre muttered in puzzlement as he watched Youlan interacting harmoniously with his little sisters.

Hmm? Wait a minute, could it be? Has sister had a change of heart? Is she now allowing others to knead her face?

Huh??

As this thought emerged, Pipi’s little hands also became eager to try. Seeing his little sisters intimately interacting with his big sis, Pipi also wanted to join in. Of course, his intention for joining was not really to experience his sister’s cuteness, but rather to knead her face and get even.

Therefore, abandoning his chicken leg, Pipi trotted towards the hall.

However, as soon as he took his first step, a vine suddenly grew out of the ground and directly wrapped around Pipi’s ankle.

"Huh?"

Before Pipi could react to what had happened, the dumbfounded Pipi was suddenly flung away by the vine! He was directly thrown out of a nearby window...

—Hey!!! Why can’t I knead you too!!! It’s not fair, ahhhh!!!—

With a feeling of unwillingness, Pierre was thus flung tens of thousands of miles away by the vine, crashing headfirst into the central territory of the Ice Dragon Clan. Faced with the Sword Demon who suddenly descended from the sky, Clan Leader Sindi and others, who thought they had offended the little ancestor, immediately became scared out of their wits. They quickly brought out their reserves of precious items such as gold, dragon crystals, and dragon scales, piling them up in front of Pipi.

Their movements were so practiced that it made one’s heart ache.

It was evident that Liyu, Shuoyue, and the others had visited the Ice Dragon Clan quite often...

Looking at Pierre, who had disappeared into the distance like the Big Bad Wolf, Kalina could only disdainfully roll her eyes.

"Fool..."

Without washing his hands, how could he go and knead big sis?

Afterward, even though Pipi was no longer in the room, Kalina still acted as if demonstrating. She carefully washed her hands, applied several purification spells, and even prayed before slowly sitting down on the sofa in the living room.

The next moment, under Youlan’s speechless gaze, Kalina solemnly reached out and kneaded Youlan’s fair and tender face. At the same time, she took out a few cute hairpins, seemingly wanting to dress up her big sister.

Although feeling a bit resistant, after noticing the fiercely burning excitement in Kalina’s eyes, Youlan gave up resisting and resignedly handed her body over to her sisters.

After all, when she decided to return to the Winter Forest in the form of a child, Youlan had anticipated this scene.

—Forget it, let it be.—

Just consider it compensation for deceiving them for so long, and let them treat me as a doll for a while.

Furthermore, from the corner of her eye, Youlan glanced at Liyu and Shuoyue, who were gradually letting down their guard and opening up to her. Seeing their hostility towards her appearance gradually dissipate, Youlan couldn’t help but feel relieved and let out a long sigh.

It seems that returning with the identity of a child was also the right decision. Not only could I escape mother’s feather duster, but I can also repair my relationship with my little sisters.

At the same time, for the first time in hundreds of years, being so close to her own sisters didn’t seem too bad.

For a while, Youlan, who was constantly being nuzzled by her sisters, couldn’t help but reveal a fanitly happy smile on her face.

However, in the coming long period of time, would I always be treated as a bolster like this?

Seeing her sisters already starting to argue about the embarrassing issue of who she would sleep with tonight, Youlan suddenly felt a bit depressed and muttered inwardly.

...

Just as the entire living room was filled with a warm atmosphere, the communication magic stone at Kalina’s waist suddenly flashed with an untimely blue light. Although reluctant to let go of Youlan’s face, Kalina still had a sense of priorities in her heart.

Reluctantly letting go of Youlan’s face, Kalina slowly stood up, moved to the side, and activated the communication magic stone.

The next moment, a series of encrypted messages were rapidly transmitted into Kalina’s mind, causing the beautiful red-haired woman to raise her eyebrows.

Liyu, who was beside her, handed little Youlan in her arms to the expectant Shuoyue, jumped off the sofa, and curiously came to Kalina’s side:

"Sister Kalina, that communication is from Xiao, right? What did he say?"

"Mm, Mother has awakened and returned to normal."

"Huh?! Really?!! That’s great then!!"

Hearing this, Liyu repeatedly patted her chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

However, just after sighing, Liyu’s eyes became tense again the next second, and she asked Kalina hesitantly:

"Sister Kalina, about us taking the initiative to attack earlier, is Mother... not angry?"

"According to Xiao, it seems she’s not. It’s normal, right? Our actions and attacking the Holy War Allied Forces were all out of concern for Mother’s safety. It was a reasonable attack. As for us pushing the Holy War plan forward and forcing Mother to choose sides, Mother probably doesn’t even know about it."

"Is that so?"

Although Kalina’s words seemed to make some sense, Liyu still felt a sense of unease.

"What about Mother now?"

"She’s resting for a bit and seems to be preparing to return to the Winter Forest. By the way, Xiao also mentioned something about Yuan’er’s birthday party."

"Birthday party?"

"Yes. Mother is quite concerned about Yuan’er’s birthday party this time. So, Xiao plans to make it lively and festive. On this point, I agree as well. Therefore, Liyu, later you should go to the beast tribes in the forest and ask them to send representatives to attend, and prepare birthday gifts for Yuan’er."

"Mm, I understand."

Liyu nodded slightly. She was already quite familiar with this task. Moreover, she was very clear on how to make those simple-minded magical beasts ’happily’ and ’willingly’ participate in the party.

However, what Liyu cared about now was obviously not the issue of subsequent birthday party arrangements.

Relying on the keen danger perception ability of her true body, Liyu always felt that something was amiss. Unable to hold back, the little one once again inquired to Kalina:

"Sister Kalina, are you sure Mom doesn’t know about the things we did?"

"Can’t say for sure, but she probably doesn’t know."

Kalina honestly expressed her thoughts:

"With Mother’s temperament, if she knew we were the ones pushing things behind the scenes, she probably would have rushed over with a feather duster long ago. She wouldn’t be as calm as she is now, and even have the energy to prepare for Yuan’er’s birthday party. So, I think it should be fine. But... your concerns are not unreasonable."

With Liyu bringing it up, Kalina indeed also felt something unusual. After all, after experiencing the Holy War, how could Mother not pursue the question of how her identity was exposed?

As she spoke, Kalina also cast her gaze towards Sebastian, the black rose butler who was busy preparing lunch in the kitchen not far away.

"Sebastian, what do you think? Has Mother shown any abnormalities recently?"

As Kalina’s words reached his ears, Sebastian’s hand that was cutting vegetables suddenly stopped, and his entire body instantly froze in place.

A drop of cold sweat imperceptibly dripped from Sebastian’s forehead.

After a brief silence, the old butler slowly turned around, somewhat awkwardly raised his hand to scratch his head, and responded in a very relaxed tone:

"Huh? No, no, nothing abnormal? Milady should, should not have noticed anything, haha, hahaha, hahahaha..."

As he laughed, Sebastian’s voice grew smaller and smaller...
