Chapter 308

Chapter 308

Excitedly, Saly was jumping in front of Arthur and recounting what happened in the fight against the dragon, which was actually a mature Water Dragon .

With a warm plastered on his face, Arthur caressed Lucy’s silky hair as he patiently listened o Saly . He could see that she matured, both physically and mentally . Of course, she was still acting like a child but that was for the best, it’s nice seeing her behave like this than like the past, where she’s always afraid of strangers and is in constant fear and depression .

"Daddy! Is your eyes okay?"

Saly approached Arthur and pointed at his eyepatch which covered half of the ugly scar caused by the Divine Beast . He waved his hand in assurance and answered

"A ferocious tiger injured me but it’s alright now, it’ll heal soon . "

Although it was half a lie, he didn’t want to lie or worry her . However, it’s true that it’ll heal once he finds a place with Primordial Energy or the necessary ingredients to concoct the pill his copy was talking about, though the chances of finding the former are higher .

Arthur narrated his adventures to Saly, who sat on his lap and quietly listened to him . Her eyes were shining as he listened to his amazing feats . She knew that her parents were very powerful and the humans living on Earth aren’t the least bit dangerous, in fact, she can be considered the strongest person on Earth, excluding a few individuals that do not belong to this planet, for example, Snory .

After passing two hours with Arthur, Saly glanced curiously at Lolitta, who was still busy watching the TV . Although the human AI looked younger than Saly, the latter was still intrigued by the presence of this kid . She nudged Arthur’s arm and sneakily pointed at ’miss Meredith’, although she was a cheerful kid, Saly isn’t a person to talk to strangers the second she sees them .

After only ten minutes, the two girls were happily chatting with each other as if it’s not their first meeting, even Arthur was bewildered about how it became like this . Lolitta usually acts high and mighty but she was talking about childish things, which didn’t suit her real age, nonetheless, Arthur didn’t meddle and affectionately gazed at his daughter, who was full of smiles .

Not after that, another visitor appeared in the living room . It was none other than the red-eyes wolf, Astrith . He was accompanied by the Head Maid Taliya, their appearance only surprised Saly, who ran up to the big wolf and hugged him .

He looked after her when they were in the Ma Clan, he often protected her and accompanied her to dungeons, they can be considered very good friends .

The usually serious wolf was licking the face of the giggling Saly

"Ahh stop Astrith ahahahha it tickles!"

Lucy only glanced at Astrith then stared at Taliya and spoke with a voice only him could hear

"So she’s Taliya?"

Arthur didn’t think much of her question and nodded his head, unfortunately, he misunderstood the meaning behind her words . He could feel a pain coming from his waist, Lucy was pinching and giving him a weird look

" . . You didn’t mention that she’s young, a beauty at that . "

He tried his best to avoid her sharp glare and motioned to Taliya to come, as she was motionlessly standing in the corner, not planning to come and interrupt them, however, she was throwing a couple of curious glances at Lucy .

"T-there’s really nothing between us . You know I only have you in my heart . "

Lucy retracted her glare and retorted

"Hmmm is that so~~~"

She got up and walked to Taliya, who was surprised by her sudden movements . The head maid wasn’t acting like her usual self, she was pressured by Lucy, who has a beauty matching her, if not better, the mysterious wife was strong but she couldn’t determine the disparity in power between them .

However, knowing she’s Arthur’s wife, she’s bound to be crazy strong . There’s another thing that startled her, this silver-haired woman was without a doubt, a demon . As a demon herself, Taliya could feel that this woman is one of her kin, although she knew it beforehand, she never believed it because it was Jackob who told her .

"I heard you were taking care of my husband, thank you very much . I’m Lucy MoonStar, it’s very nice to meet you, Miss Taliya . "

Lucy stretched her hand, planning to shake hands with the head maid, who hesitated for a second before replying with the same etiquette .

Arthur, who was sitting in the back, retorted

"Though it’s quite the opposite, I’m the one who took of h-"

He didn’t even finish his sentence as Lucy sent him a deadly glare that made him close his mouth and scratch his head in helplessness .

It was the first time that Taliya saw Arthur this tame, usually, he acts carefree and everyone doesn’t dare behave like this with him .

’She’s definitely a fierce woman alright . ’

Even someone with a bit of backbone like herself, Taliya couldn’t win over Arthur and could never convince him to do something yet with a simple stare, Lucy managed to shut him up .

"The pleasure is all mine . "

"So, did the search bore fruit?"

To get rid of this slightly awkward atmosphere, Arthur asked Taliya . In response, Astrith walked up with Saly riding him and said

"This one managed to find the office . The mission was completed with facing any problems . "

Astrith spat a fingernail-sized bead, which floated to Arthur’s hand . This was none other than the core of the killed AI, Lolitta and his copy created some sort of a substitute AI that acts as a decoy to trick the System for some time .

With the death of the AI, the System will send people to investigate the murder, however, with the decoy residing in that office, it’ll take some time before the truth is uncovered .

"Good job, another problem was taken care of . "

The wolf slightly bowed his head and replied

"This one is grateful for your praise . "

Astrith then went back into playing with Saly, who was enjoying the ride on the wide of the lightning wolf . Obviously, to fit inside this apartment, Astrith had to decrease his size or else he would be able to fit in . He was over five meters in length and three two and a half meters tall, so it’ll be uncomfortable if he remained like that .

The night passed peacefully, the family ate together, Lucy even urged Taliya to eat with them since the maid remained standing there without doing or saying anything .

With the help of Saly and his wife, they finally managed to make her join them in dinner . Even Lolitta, who always complaining, was surprisingly docile in front of Lucy, contrary to her behavior .

. . . .

Late at night, Arthur and Lucy were inside their bedroom, enjoying some time alone . They didn’t do anything obscene since Saly was sleeping in the same bed but they still snuggled near each other with Saly in the middle .

As she gently caressed his face, Lucy softly said

"When are you starting?"

Arthur remained silent then waved his hand, causing some sort of a dark card that’s approximatively 30Cm in length to appear above them .

"I’m a patient man but the time I waited is already enough . I still can remember everything that happened and the anger cannot be quelled unless I return what they did to me a thousand times . "

Hearing him, Lucy chuckled and added:

"Yes, we’ll do it thoroughly until you’re satisfied . "

Then she stared at the dark card above her, it was jet black with dark flames burning on its edges . In its center was a list of names with the first one being Arthur’s Ex-wife

*System Notification*

*The Blacklist :

-Claudia

- Kim Yoo

-Richard

. . . .

*

The list wasn’t long but every person in it is bound to suffer a fate worse than hell itself . Arthur wasn’t lying when he said he’ll return what was done to him a thousand times .

"Tomorrow, we’ll pay a visit to the Mercenary group’BattleCrawlers’ . "

Arthur showed a devilish smile as he remembered the group of burly men who kidnapped him in the middle of the street and brought him to that godforsaken room .
