Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 835 - 836 : Continue, I’m listening~

One hour ago,

As soon as Limo and the other members of the Black Rose entered the Winter Forest, the little Limo, who had been away from home for a long time, couldn’t wait to jump off the carriage. She excitedly wagged her big tail and looked around.

Since becoming an Abyssal Demon, this was the first time Limo had left the Winter Forest for such a long time.

Returning to the familiar homeland once again, feeling the familiar cold and the rich shadow power between skey and earth, Limo immediately raised her hands in excitement, striking a "hooray" pose. Under the speechless gaze of Xiao and the others, she directly and ungracefully pounced on the snow and rolled around wildly.

The dress that Xiao had specially prepared for Limo, worth thousands of coins, was ruined as expected.

Xiao could only sigh helplessly at this. After trying his best to train Limo’s ladylike demeanor to no avail, Xiao had given up.

Seeing Limo acting so recklessly, Xiao just sighed and wouldn’t fly into a rage like he did a few months ago. Moreover, he was now trying his best to think about how to deal with Yumo later, and didn’t have the energy to pay attention to the enthusiastic Limo, so he just let her play in the snow to her heart’s content.

Of course, Limo wasn’t just playing around. She also fully released the shadow power that had been suppressed in her body for a long time, using the power’s vibrations to inform the vast beast groups of the bad news of the Mountain Queen’s return home.

After releasing the shadow power in one go, Limo couldn’t help but show a satisfied smile.

You should know that during this time in Sabelius, at Xiao’s request, she had been suppressing her shadow power day in and day out. This made Limo, who had always been unrestrained in the past, feel very uncomfortable.

Now that she was finally able to release her power, Limo naturally felt happy.

"Hehe~ It feels good~"

But just as Limo was sighing with happiness, her nose suddenly smelled a familiar scent.

Hmm?

This scent!!!!?

Following the scent, Limo poked her head out of the snow and curiously looked towards the dense forest beside her. With her keen sense of smell, Limo instantly locked her gaze on a fluttering blood butterfly not far away.

Huh?

Mother’s butterfly?!

Hmm? What’s this?

Is Mommy calling me over?!!

Mother wants to play a game with me?!! Hehehe~

Seeing the bloody butterfly gradually flying into the distance, Limo, whose playfulness was greatly aroused, instantly transformed into a majestic white giant wolf under the embrace of a white light, and trotted after the bloody butterfly towards the distance.

By the time Xiao reacted, Limo had already disappeared into the depths of the forest.

"Sigh... she ran off to play again? Forget it, it’s good that she’s entertaining herself..."

Xiao, who was well aware of Limo’s lively personality, didn’t pay much attention to Limo’s disappearance. After all, he was used to it, and he knew that she would come back once she got tired of playing.

So Xiao continued to keep his head down, making notes in his notebook, trying to use the last bit of time to improve his persuasion tactics.

Meanwhile, Limo followed the blood butterfly and ran farther and farther away. She frolicked and played with the blood butterfly in the vast forest until the bloody butterfly suddenly disintegrated and disappeared. Only then did Limo reluctantly return to the barrier.

After returning to the barrier,

Limo followed Liyu’s scent and trotted to the conference room door.

Then, Limo suddenly pushed open the conference room door, giving the people inside a heart-stopping surprise.

--"Liyu!! I’m back!! What are you guys playing?!!"--

As the wolf girl’s excited shout reached his ears, Xiao felt as if he had been struck by five thunderbolts, and he stood there in a daze. After a brief moment of stunned silence, Xiao slowly turned his head and looked at the white-haired, beast-eared girl at the conference room door with an incredulous look in his eyes.

Hearing that familiar shout, seeing the slovenly girl covered in wild grass and dirt as always, Xiao’s handsome face underwent an earth-shattering change.

His confident face was instantly filled with bewilderment and horror.

"Li, Li, Li, Limo?!!! You, you’re not..."

Tremblingly pointing at Limo, for a moment, Xiao’s words became incoherent.

This familiar messy appearance and foolish temperament made Xiao have no doubt about the identity of the person in front of him.

But, If the person appearing at the door was Limo,

Then who was the Limo inside the conference room?

"It, it can’t be... no, no way..."

In an instant, a strong sense of ominous foreboding began to spread rapidly in Xiao’s heart.

Not only Xiao, the other members of the Black Rose and the Demon King-level little ancestors present had similar feelings.

After Limo pushed open the door, the entire conference room fell into a silence where a pin drop could be heard.

An oppressive atmosphere gradually enveloped everyone.

With a gasp of cold air, the crowd, including Kalina and Xiao, slowly turned their heads to look at the center of the round table...

That is, the position where "Limo" was.

At this moment, the wolf girl, who had previously looked foolish, had now shed her silly temperament and was sitting in a very elegant posture on the conference seat, contrary to her usual manner.

Her temperament had undergone an earth-shattering change.

Seemingly not noticing the stunned and horrified gazes of the people around her, the wolf girl unhurriedly picked up the teacup and took an elegant sip.

Compared to the wolf girl’s composure,

Liyu, who was originally in her arms and tightly pressed against her, lost all her energy and fell into an indescribable state of panic.

She lowered her head, sitting upright and not daring to take a single breath. Judging from her trembling body and pale face, Liyu’s current state was probably not very good.

Cold sweat dripped down from her forehead.

Not only Liyu, but everyone else also entered a state of sitting upright, nervously staring at the wolf girl.

Even Limo, who was always foolish and standing at the door, tilted her head in a daze after noticing the wolf girl who looked exactly like her.

Mewo!?

When did I learn the art of cloning?

...

No, it can’t be, right?

No,

It’s impossible, right?

It shouldn’t be possible, right? That person... shouldn’t be that smart, right? She shouldn’t... do this kind of fishing, right?

Staring at the wolf girl who was leisurely sipping tea, Xiao’s eyes were filled with extremely far-fetched doubts. Although with his intelligent IQ, he had already roughly guessed the ins and outs of the matter, his butt seemed unwilling to let him accept the fact just like that.

Just like that, mustering up courage, under the prayerful gaze of everyone, Xiao made a final struggle. He slowly stepped forward and met the wolf girl’s eyes with a complicated gaze.

"Um, you, you are..."

However, the facts proved that Xiao’s struggle was useless.

Facing Xiao’s words, the wolf girl indifferently tilted her head and asked in a very innocent tone,

"You can’t even recognize me, Xiaoyao?" (Xiao’s nickname~)

Although she still had Limo’s appearance, the voice that the wolf girl emitted at this moment had undergone an earth-shattering change. It was no longer Limo’s foolish and silly, cute and stupid voice, but a gentle and steady, yet implicitly cold and soft voice...

And as this familiar voice entered their ears,

The wolf girl’s body was gradually enveloped by a scarlet glow.

The next moment,

Under the wide-eyed and terrified gaze of the children, surrounded by scarlet shadow power and bloody butterflies, the foolish wolf girl instantly transformed into a noble, elegant, and stunningly beautiful black-haired girl.

And this girl, was the existence that the children respected the most,

And also the one they feared the most at this moment...

The Mother of the Demons, the Abyssal Lord, Yumo.

Yumo appeared in the center of the conference room in a way that was beyond everyone’s expectations.

"Yu, Yu, Yumo-sama?..."

Xiao’s face twitched as he said the black-haired girl’s name in a tone of despair, laughing and crying.

And the black-haired girl slowly put down her teacup and showed a kind smile:

"Oh~ Don’t mind me~, why aren’t you talking? The meeting isn’t over yet, right? Continue, I’m listening~"
