Volume 2, Chapter 57 – Powerless to Resist…
“Mom is an idiot.” “Aier is very unhappy now~” “Mom knows that when Aier and her sisters had trouble at the edge of the Veiled Domain eight years ago, the people of the Lingyuan family didn’t come to save us. This grandfather was nowhere to be found.” “Now he suddenly appears and brings us potions. Doesn’t Mom have any suspicions? Don’t you wonder if there might be something bad in the potions?”
Staring at Bai Lianyue, who had been rendered speechless, Ailiya spoke seriously. Perhaps because she had been betrayed by her most trusted family eight years ago, Ailiya always harbored intense vigilance. Regarding this grandfather she was meeting for the first time, the young woman undoubtedly still had a certain wariness in her heart.
“Besides…” Slowly lowering her head, after nuzzling her head close to Bai Lianyue’s ear, Ailiya continued softly: “Bai Lianyue, don’t forget the contract, okay? To ensure our healthy growth. How could those artificially synthesized things be as healthy as the natural ones? Right~”
As these words reached her ears, Miss Bai Lianyue could only sigh helplessly. “Sigh… already ten years old, yet still like little babies.”
Looking at the twins on both sides with their cute expressions and sparkling eyes, Bai Lianyue could only nod helplessly. She always found it difficult to refuse her daughters’ requests.
“Alright, alright, I get it. If you want to eat, then eat…”
After all, after devouring Hilgena’s core, her supply had increased quite a bit. If not fed to them, she’d have to express it herself. It would be quite wasteful…
Thinking of this, the Terran Malevolence lady could only blush… under the expectant gaze of the twins, slowly unzipping the front of her chest. However, just as Bai Lianyue was about to release that pair of tender large rabbits, the blue-haired young woman’s brows suddenly furrowed.
Because she found that little Ailiya had also laid down on her lap, staring at her with expectation.
Feeding Miya and Weiya? Bai Lianyue could still accept it… after all, the two little girls were still growing, and their cores hadn’t fully ‘matured’.
But Ailiya? “Didn’t you… wean long ago?”
To this, Ailiya stuck out her tongue and cupped her cheeks with both hands. “Who says? I’m~ still a baby, see~. Mom, baby is hungry~”
As the coquettish words were spoken, Ailiya licked her lips and, just like a little baby, suddenly pounced into Bai Lianyue’s embrace.

“Hey!! Aier, you, you, you’re rebelling!!”
In the suburbs of Clavino city, A red-haired man with a bare upper body was doing recovery training in a courtyard. This man, carrying several tons of dumbbells in each hand, was Moande with his new body.
Although these bionic prosthetics were constructed exactly like his original body, an artificial body was ultimately not a real one, and Moande still needed some time to adapt.
Just as Moande was trying his best to adapt to his body, a voice full of mockery and exceptionally weird tones drifted into his ears.
—”Long time no see, Moande, how have you been lately? I heard your avatar was torn apart by Gaia Lobir and is recovering. How are the injuries?”
As the voice reached his ears, Moande frowned and slowly put down the dumbbells in his hands.
Although Moande’s expression was quite cold now, the moment he turned his head, he immediately put on a delighted expression, showing no displeasure at the strangeness in the other’s tone.
“Brak, long time no see.”
The next moment, under the escort of several men in black, a figure dressed in gorgeous, colorful clothes with heavy makeup slowly walked into Moande’s view—pink curly hair, makeup so flamboyant it was almost impossible to look away… in various senses of “impossible to look away.”
His steps were light and graceful, as if every movement had been carefully crafted, carrying a seductive confidence that couldn’t be ignored.
If these movements and makeup had appeared on a woman, Moande might have appreciated them a bit.
However, these things appeared on such an effeminate and weird male… directly causing a trace of disgust to imperceptibly flash in Moande’s eyes.
At the same time, upon seeing a visitor arrive, the beast-eared maid standing at the courtyard gate immediately stepped forward, seemingly wanting to offer tea to the guest as usual.

Having been fumigated by the other’s perfume, Moande momentarily didn’t notice the beast-eared maid’s movement, and when he did notice, an unusual light immediately flashed in Moande’s eyes.
“Lola, go back…”
Unfortunately, Moande’s attempt to stop her didn’t make it out of his mouth in time. The beast-eared maid had already approached Brak.
And upon seeing the beast-eared maid, especially her fluffy ears, the smile on Brak’s face directly froze, and intense disgust flashed in his eyes.
“Tsk… almost forgot, the Covenant still has quite a few of these bugs…”
As the words came out, the effeminate man lightly waved his hand. Spiritual power surged accordingly.
Pink mist instantly spread out. That mist was of unknown substance, soft and emitting a faint fragrance. At first glance, it appeared to pose no threat whatsoever.
But when this seemingly ordinary mist enveloped the maid, the beast-eared maid instantly displayed severe discomfort. The teacup in her hand fell to the ground, her body began to tremble violently, her complexion rapidly changed from normal to deathly pale, and her eyes were filled with terror and pain.
The maid didn’t even have time to let out a cry of anguish before her legs were corroded in the mist, directly losing their support, causing her to collapse to the ground with a thud.
As the mist further spread and eroded, the beast-eared maid’s body disintegrated at a visible rate, finally turning into scattered pieces of flesh emitting white smoke, making one nauseous.
“I really don’t understand why the Westivian Covenant keeps these alien races around, so boring.”
After casually killing one of Moande’s maids, Brak not only showed no guilt but looked at Moande with a congratulatory gaze. As if everything was so matter-of-fact.
“Shouldn’t Moande thank me? I’ve helped you eliminate a pest~ Hmm? Why… are you angry?”
Reаⅾ оո КаtRеaԁіոgCаfe
Seemingly noticing Moande’s clenched fists, Brak asked puzzledly.
To this, Moande’s heart trembled.
After a brief silence, the red-haired man didn’t loosen his clenched fists but instead undisguisedly glared at Brak with an even more displeased look.
“Thank you for what… Brak, do you know how much a beast-person maid like this costs in the Westivian Covenant? At least a million Sol! You just killed her like that? How are you going to compensate me?!”
Hearing this, Brak was first stunned, then laughed recklessly. “Oh my, sorry, sorry, it’s just money~, I’ll compensate you. Of course, if you don’t want money~”
While speaking in his magnetic yet flamboyant voice, Brak licked his lips and seductively raised his hand, attempting to stroke Moande’s face.
“I can accompany you for a night, that’s also an option~”
“Tch.” With a cold snort, Moande directly knocked away Brak’s palm.
At the same time, this First Celestial Augur Knight obviously didn’t want to continue this goosebump-inducing topic, but directly looked at Brak with a serious face.
“Lord Duan, didn’t he come?”
“As for Mr. Duan~” The moment this name was mentioned, a nauseating coquettish expression suddenly appeared on Brak’s face.
“He has some important matters to handle and can’t come to the Westivian Covenant for now.”
“Important matters?” Hearing this, Moande’s brows furrowed involuntarily.
Reαⅾ оn ΚatRеаԁіոɡСаfе
Obtaining the Primordium should be what those people care about most; what could be more important than this?
Undoubtedly, the current situation differed greatly from what Moande had expected. But Moande wasn’t a fool, otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to hide his true identity and mingle within Paradise Manor for many years.
After brief consideration, a surprised look flashed in Moande’s eyes. “The summoning ritual connecting to the otherworld was successful?!”
“Yes.” Brak raised his eyebrows proudly.
“The third Savior has descended, and Mr. Duan is busy making contact with them, so he’s temporarily unable to come. However, Mr. Duan is also very interested in the cores inside those three little girls, so he specially sent me, his confidant, to assist you~. We must bring those three little children back. Dead or alive~”
“Mr. Brak, I know you’re very strong. But relying just on us, it won’t be easy to bring Ailiya and the others back.” Saying this, Moande took a deep breath and said seriously.
“Don’t forget, Ailiya and her sisters are now under the protection of the Lingyuan family. Do you know who’s presiding over the Lingyuan family now? Luo Fei has gone to the northern region, and Xi Xuan has returned.”
“Xi Xuan-West”
Mumbling this name, even the consistently arrogant Brak couldn’t help but have a hint of gravity flash in his eyes. “The second seat of the Celestial Augur Knights from a thousand years ago, the strongest after the Alabaster Sovereign.”
“Yes. He’s much stronger than me, who was the sixth seat. If Lord Duan isn’t present, even if we join forces, we’re no match for him.”
On this point, Brak nodded noncommittally. “Indeed, not easy to deal with. But don’t worry, Moande. Mr. Duan has already considered this, so he deliberately arranged for me to have that thing~”
Moande: Hmm?
