Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 119 - 120: The housekeeper
In the eastern part of the Cold Winter Forest, inside the basement of a small wooden house,
Three adorable girls were silently lying next to the underground ice spring, carefully sensing and observing the pale pink, butterfly-cocoon-like crystal at the bottom of the spring...
These three cuties,
Needless to say, were naturally our Li Mo, Li Yu, and Shuo Yue ,
And the petite existence inside the crystal was the pink-haired girl who had been saved by Yumo.
After receiving Yumo’s origin blood, the girl’s body began to undergo a massive transformation due to the immense power! To prevent energy leakage, the dark pink crystal wrapped the girl inside. However, the purpose of this crystal was not only to prevent the leakage of power,
Another use was to prevent the pink-haired girl from bursting and spilling blood everywhere...

After all,
Those who could stably accept Yumo’s power and become a Demon King-level existence were few and far between. There were only their six siblings~
Originally,
Li Yu and the others were certain that this little girl would follow in the same footsteps, turning into a pile of minced meat. After all, a child with such tender skin who looked a bit pampered seemed unlikely to withstand the immense pain brought by the power of Shadow, even with the help of the ice spring, the probability of success was slim...
However,
Today, upon arriving at the basement, Li Yu was surprised to find that,
It seemed she had misjudged her...
--
" sister, this, should be, almost successful, right?"
Staring at the pink-haired girl sealed within the crystal, Shuo Yue blinked her blue-gold eyes, inquiring as if seeking confirmation.
To this,
Li Yu nodded slightly, neither confirming nor denying: "Yes..."
"Can it really be done?"
"Yes, it’s a bit unexpected indeed."
...
...
Li Yu and Shuo Yue, just like riddle people, kept talking to each other,
Unsurprisingly,
The conversation between the two directly made the puzzled Li Mo, who was also watching from the side, even more confused.
Originally just following the excitement, she curiously looked at her sister,
"Li Yu, Li Yu! What are you guys talking about?"
"Nothing much, just discussing what to have for dinner."
Li Yu said indifferently, seemingly without much intention to explain further, as she knew that even after explaining, her clueless sister probably still wouldn’t understand...
Ignoring the wolf girl who kept holding her hand and asking questions, Li Yu once again focused her attention on the dark pink crystal,
Feeling the Shadow power gradually stabilizing around the crystal, her emerald eyes couldn’t help but narrow slightly,
Perhaps,
After a hundred years, she might have another little sister?
Quite unexpected...
But well,
For a human to become a Demon King-level existence,
If they still retain humans moral, it might be hard to control...
If, by then, this new sister wants to be an enemy of Mother
Then,
She might not need to show mercy...
Thinking of this, an extreme coldness emerged in Li Yu’s beautiful eyes, making the already chilly basement’s temperature plummet even further.
Although they shared the same origin, Li Yu naturally couldn’t show mercy to those who intended to be enemies with their mother.
Nevermind,
’I hope you, little one, don’t end up like big sister limo...’
After a helpless sigh, Li Yu silently prayed in her heart.
--
A moment later, the three sisters who had finished inspecting the ice spring returned to the living room of the cabin,
Seated at the dining table, they began their lunchtime activities~
Of course,
The food was prepared in advance by Yumo and preserved using scrolls. In addition, there were some long-lasting dry rations delivered by the Black Rose family.
As a good mother, Yumo prepared enough food for her children before leaving the Cold Winter Forest.
After all,
She didn’t want her children to return to primitive living when she was not around...
Having them cook for themselves wasn’t realistic.
Shuo Yue and Li Mo had never even set foot in the kitchen,
As for Li Yu, although she could cook, the taste was probably not very flattering...
Yumo didn’t want to come home to see three ’corpses’...
That’s why Yumo prepared so much food.
Under normal circumstances,
Eating the food prepared by their mother, the three little ones should be extremely excited and happy,
However,
Today, the usual laughter at the dining table was gone, and the entire dining room, even the whole house, was enveloped in an eerie silence.
The strange atmosphere and increasingly oppressive air caused the ordinary Abyss Demons guarding the house outside to shiver instinctively...
"Without mother around, it’s just so disheartening... *sniffle*"
After spitting out a bone from her mouth, Li Mo listlessly lay on the table,
Her fluffy ears drooped, and her normally energetic tail hung down weakly.
Hearing Li Mo’s words, Li Yu and Shuo Yue also fell silent.
"Yes, it’s quite disheartening,"
For the first time, Li Yu agreed with her sister’s statement.
At this moment,
An inexplicable sense of loss emerged in the hearts of the three little ones,
Thinking about it, their mother had always been accompanying them in the Cold Winter Forest,
They could feel their mother’s presence all the time. But now? Mother had gone to Linfeng City, and that familiar, gentle aura was no longer there. It made the three little ones feel like they had lost something important...
A depressive mood began to breed continuously within their hearts.
Really,
If they had known earlier, they wouldn’t have let Xiao and the others help their mother find the Shapeshifting Magic. *sniffle*
Although they couldn’t stick close to their mother, it was a bit of a pity, but at least she would always be by their side...
’Sigh, it’s so annoying,’
Li Yu listlessly lay on the dining table,
The two little white birds that always clung to Li Yu perched on her head, pecking at their owner.
Just like that,
The little house was enveloped in a gloomy atmosphere...
After soaking in such a mood for a long time,
The wolf cub, who had been lying on the table, could no longer bear it. She sat up and let out an angry roar,
"Meow! ! ! ! !"
Along with the roar,
The wolf girl suddenly flipped the table, stood with her hands on her hips, and looked towards the south, where the City of Wind was located! The next moment, in front of her two younger sisters, Li Mo announced her decision!
"I can’t take it anymore! I’m going to find Mother!"
This statement,
Indeed, it expressed the feelings of the sisters,
However,
Once again floating midair to dodge the scattered food, Shuo Yue rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked helplessly at the wolf girl,
"Big Sister Li Mo, Mommy told us to watch the house~ If you just run out like this, it’ll upset Mommy. Do you want to be educated with the ’feather duster’ again?"
"No, no, I don’t want to!"
Hearing this, Li Mo shook her head quickly,
The frightened wolf girl covered her buttocks, which had just recovered. They seemed to ache again. After recalling the fear of being dominated by the ’feather duster,’ Li Mo’s fighting spirit, which had finally ignited in her heart, was extinguished by a basin of cold water,
The wolf girl squatted back down pitifully,
"Woo woo woo, what should we do? It’s so boring without Mother, woo woo woo woo..."
Li Mo, who had hardly ever left the Winter Forest or been apart from Yumo, was the most depressed at this moment,
And just then,
A pair of gentle little hands suddenly reached out, gently rubbing the wolf cub’s head,
Feeling the familiar warmth and breath, Li Mo looked up curiously at the gray-haired girl in front of her,
"Li Yu?"
"I think, we can actually go out~"
After a slight smile, Li Yu showed a mischievous grin,
The moment she heard these words, Li Mo’s face lit up with joy. She jumped up and hugged her sister’s neck,
"Really? Really?!!"
"Big sister, be gentle, do you want to break my neck…" Li Yu said helplessly,
On the other side,
After hearing Li Yu’s words, Shuo Yue did not show any joy but looked at Li Yu with confusion,
"Big Sister Li Yu, but Mother has told us, right? Although we haven’t been obedient, we’ve always done it secretly. Will it be a problem to openly go against Mother’s instructions?"
"It’s fine, I’ve thought of an excuse!"
Li Yu confidently said,
"But, well~"
"But what?" Shuo Yue and Li Mo said in unison,
In response to the questions from the two girls, Li Yu’s face gradually showed an awkward smile,
"We can go find Mother, but for the task of watching the house, we, at least, have to leave one person behind. The Winter Forest can’t be without a Demon King..."
As soon as these words were spoken,
The expressions of the three changed slightly,
...
"To choose the unlucky one, let’s play the Ghost card game~"
Li Yu suggested with a smile.
