Under the World Tree, two figures embraced, lingering long without parting.
A sky of pink petals drifted down.
Fluorescent light fell upon Qin Yu and the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, like a blessing.
Of course, there was also a certain sleeping white-haired loli.
A child who had finally fallen asleep was exceptionally cute.
Because she wouldn't disturb the "father and mother" who were secretly doing something naughty.
"..."
Qin Yu held the gentle beauty in his arms tightly, savoring her scent.
It was like morning dew kissed by the sunlight in the woods, carrying a hint of sweetness.
It made him want to ask for more.
Qin Yu's arm tightened slightly, feeling the astonishing resilience of her slender waist.
"Mmm..."
The Greater Lord Rukkhadevata nestled in Qin Yu's embrace, emitting a soft hum.
"..."
Hearing the sound, Nahida's small body trembled imperceptibly.
But even this slight movement was noticed.
"!"
The Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's beautiful, slender eyelashes fluttered, and she opened her eyes.
She pushed Qin Yu away.
"Mmph!"
Qin Yu's expression changed slightly, and he covered his mouth with a frown.
He looked with annoyance at the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, who had turned her face away and was breathing slightly heavily, his gaze questioning.
It was natural for her mood to be affected by such a sudden interruption.
And more importantly.
A trace of crimson appeared at the corner of his mouth.
That's right, Qin had been bitten fiercely.
"...Bold one."
The Greater Lord Rukkhadevata leaned against the World Tree, her misty eyes rippling. She gave Qin Yu a sidelong glance.
Her cheeks were flushed, and her cherry lips were moist.
The charm of that moment, combined with her gentle and mature demeanor, was exceptionally alluring.
Someone's heartstrings were once again inadvertently stirred.
"?"
Qin Yu took a step forward, about to do something more.
But the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata had already extended a finger and lightly tapped his chest.
"Shh."
She shook her head gently and looked at Nahida not far away.
Our child is pretending to be asleep.
"...Cough, cough, mm-hmm."
Qin Yu scratched his head guiltily, finally realizing.
Had he been seen by little angel Nahida?
Come to think of it.
To do such a thing in front of someone's daughter...
This feeling was strangely stimulating and exciting.
Qin, admitting his mistake with humility, declared he would do it again next time.
After calming down, he also followed the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's gaze and looked over.
"Huu... huu..."
Nahida buried her face, seemingly fast asleep.
So cute.
Qin Yu smiled, then suddenly hissed.
The corner of his mouth, where he had been bitten, was throbbing with pain.
That bite had been truly fierce.
"What's wrong, are you uncomfortable somewhere?"
The Greater Lord Rukkhadevata looked at Qin Yu, whose expression was pained, and asked with concern.
Her tone was exceptionally gentle.
But a smile of pleasure played on her beautiful face.
Experiencing a little pain might bring a different kind of feeling, right?
"I'm fine."
Qin Yu shook his head and sighed, saying no more.
The chaotic torment of the past five hundred years had indeed caused changes in the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's personality.
But he hadn't expected the gentle her to become...
And please, put away those dangerous eyes!
Qin felt like a laboratory rabbit being targeted, about to be devoured at any moment.
"Heh heh... don't worry."
The Greater Lord Rukkhadevata raised her hand gently, and a verdant green life energy glowed from her fingertips.
As the Dendro Archon, she was also the most powerful priest, capable of instantly healing pain and restoring energy.
No matter how far they pushed it, it would be fine.
...
The wound on Qin Yu's lip soon healed.
Afterward, he also listened to the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata tell many stories.
Yes, for instance, that the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata was still a virgin.
The most surprising thing to him was that the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata and Nahida were of the same origin.
"So, you mother and daughter are the same person?"
"That doesn't sound right either..."
For a moment, Qin Yu's brain overloaded.
The relationship was a bit messy, a bit tangled.
Suddenly, a terrifying thought flashed through his mind.
He had kissed the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, did that mean he had kissed Nahida on the other side?
This was truly something... not!
Qin Yu was a decent person, how could he lay a hand on little angel Nahida!
"Regardless, you are the sun for both me and Nahida, and that is enough."
The Greater Lord Rukkhadevata raised her hand and gently stroked Qin Yu's face, saying softly.
You not only gave Nahida freedom.
You also gave me true liberation.
"Thank you, my sun."
"..."
Qin Yu looked at the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, gentle as flowing water, and then at Nahida, who was pretending to sleep.
The white-haired mature woman and the white-haired loli, finally merged.
"Shall we call Nahida awake?"
Qin Yu smiled and took the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's hand.
In his eyes, Nahida and the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata were ultimately different beings.
Nahida was still a child.
"I'll listen to you."
The Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's lips curled slightly, but she said no more.
Yes, she had hidden the most crucial piece of information.
That Nahida could also grow up and become a white-haired mature woman.
She could even switch between loli, maiden, and mature woman forms.
Of course, all of this required the infusion of Qin Yu's Electro power.
Maintaining silence was Nahida's wish.
She had something she wanted to tell Qin Yu personally.
"Alright, let's wake her up together."
Qin Yu and the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, accompanied each other, arrived at the vine bed carrying the little angel.
Their movements were gentle, like a young couple afraid of startling their child.
"Let me."
The Greater Lord Rukkhadevata silently mouthed a few words.
She also swatted away someone's hand that was stroking her waist.
Qin, feeling helpless, nodded.
He suddenly felt like a husband being disliked by his wife after she had a daughter.
...
"Wake up, Nahida."
A gentle voice brought warmth, calling out by her ear.
Nahida felt a gentle push.
She slowly opened her eyes.
"Mmm, Mama, and my... Sun."
In her emerald green eyes, she reflected two figures who had inadvertently drawn close, their relationship intimate.
She rubbed her eyes and revealed a slightly dazed smile of surprise.
This was a dreamlike scene.
So Nahida also had a warm and comfortable bed, and was gently woken up.
Like the happy children in dreams.
No longer having to face the cold, dead silence of the Sanctuary of Surasthana, which had restricted her freedom for five hundred years.
"Mama will always be with you from now on," the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata said, leaning down with a smile.
"And me," Qin Yu reminded her.
"You don't have any other ideas, do you?"
"How could I."
...
Nahida tilted her face up, her eyes shining brightly.
She watched the two, bickering like an old married couple, and her heart felt warm.
Nahida was no longer alone.
"Mmm... I have many fun little games to play..."
"And many stories to hear."
She gently extended her hands and held the hands of the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata and Qin Yu.
She was just like a child acting spoiled to her parents.
"Let's see what friends your Mama has brought," Qin Yu smiled.
"Huh?"
Nahida was startled by his words and instinctively looked around.
In the forest, something seemed to be running around.
Dudu... Dundun.
Whoosh!
The next moment, a group of round, dumpling-like little creatures parted the grass.
They were the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's children, sprites of the forest.
"Rana!"
Nahida, holding their hands, exclaimed in surprise.
