Volume 3, Chapter 3 – A Frightened Lianyue Comes to Sleep with Ailiya

Why did Miss Bai Lianyue suddenly come to Ailiya’s room hugging a pillow?

To explain this, we need to go back two hours.

That night, as usual, Bai Lianyue went to her twin daughters’ bedroom to play with the two little ones, planning to put the mischievous pair to bed after they tired themselves out.

However, tonight, Miya and Weiya didn’t want to play hide-and-seek with their mother, but instead chose a different activity—watching a movie!

Regarding watching movies, the evil goddess naturally agreed with both hands raised.

After all, the evil goddess was a complete movie enthusiast.

Not having to expend energy accompanying the twins in their wild play, while also enjoying an excellent film, was undoubtedly a quite worthwhile arrangement.

“Hehe, tonight will be comfortable~” Bai Lianyue giggled as she sat down on the sofa with the twins.

Then, as the movie began to play, our evil goddess’s smile froze in place.

The reason was simple: the movie the twins had chosen for tonight… was a horror film.

For the twins who had grown up in the Veiled Domain since childhood and had seen all sorts of monsters, they weren’t afraid of any supernatural creatures. On the contrary, they were curious about what ghosts and monsters looked like in human films.

Would they be scarier than the Corrupted Beasts in the Veiled Domain?

Driven by curiosity, Miya and Weiya selected the latest Covenant horror film and planned to enjoy it with their mother.

Evidently, the twins didn’t yet have a clear awareness of the embarrassing fact that their mother was quite timid.

And so, while the twins happily munched on popcorn and cheerfully watched the TV screen, Miss Bai Lianyue, sitting between the two little lolis, had already been frightened pale, her expression rigid.

Watching the screen as one terrifying evil spirit after another appeared suddenly, along with scene after scene of cruel slaughter, the evil goddess’s little heart almost leaped out of her chest.

Her whole body was drenched in cold sweat, and a hint of tears even faintly appeared in her jade-green eyes.

“DSDSDSDS…” (sound of scared stuttering)

Of course, in order to maintain her dignified image in the children’s hearts, the evil goddess naturally couldn’t cry out loud. She could only endure her fear and pretend to remain calm while sitting on the sofa.

However, fear is an emotion that, even if not expressed in one’s countenance, the body will honestly reflect its true feelings.

The trembling Miss Bai Lian instinctively clutched tightly to what was in her arms.

And what was in Bai Lianyue’s arms was none other than… Serveiling in her black cat form.

Originally, Serveiling had snuggled into Bai Lianyue’s embrace wanting to take advantage of the situation. After all, as a vassal, she quite enjoyed the pleasant feeling of being close to the evil god.

However, since her big sister was frightened by the horror movie, Serveiling sadly became Bai Lian’s ‘stress ball.’

The frightened evil goddess instinctively held Serveiling tightly in her arms.

Although the evil goddess’s normal state only had level-two strength in her Augury Force aura, her physical strength was still a little terrifying.

As a result, Serveiling was squeezed to the point where she felt worse than death.

“Meow… MEOW?!!…” (No, I can’t… my internal organs are going to be squeezed out!)

After a desperate struggle, Cat Sister’s eyes rolled back, her soul departed, and she directly fainted in Bai Lianyue’s arms.

Of course, since all her attention was concentrated on suppressing her fear and maintaining composure, Bai Lian didn’t notice this vassal who had tragically died in her embrace.

After barely enduring for an hour and a half to finish the movie, Bai Lianyue used the fastest speed in history to put the twins to bed and sang them a lullaby.

After painstakingly settling the twins, the evil goddess hurriedly left the twins’ room and rushed toward her own room!

At this moment, Miss Bai Lianyue had only one thought in her mind: return to her room! Dive under the covers and use the blanket barrier to block all ghosts and evil spirits!

However, just as Bai Lianyue was walking quickly down the corridor, a certain pink octopus that had just climbed onto the windowsill leaped from it without a word and pounced toward Bai Lianyue!

“Yingying!” (Big Sis! I’m back! Do you have any apples?!)

Actually, Octopus Sister, who had just completed Yelena’s mission, simply wanted to greet her big sister and, if lucky, get an apple to eat.

Her action had no malicious intent whatsoever.

However, in the eyes of Miss Bai, who had just watched a horror movie and was in a state of extreme anxiety, Octopus Sister’s greeting became another scene entirely.

On a dark and windy night, in the gloomy corridor, a monster with glowing red eyes, resembling a facehugger, was making strange noises while lunging at her…

In an instant, Miss Bai Lianyue recalled the horrifying scenes from the movie, and her whole body immediately trembled.

“Ahhh! Ghost!!”

With a scream, Bai Lianyue instinctively swung a slap at Octopus Sister.

Ling Xi: Ying ying?!!

“BOOM!!!”

After a loud noise, the bewildered Octopus Sister was slapped out the window by Bai Lianyue… and happened to hit a certain husky that was out for a walk…

After eliminating the ‘danger,’ Bai Lianyue finally returned to her room.

However, after being frightened by Octopus Sister, the already timid Terran Malevolence was now trembling even more, her jade-green eyes filled with trepidation and unease. Clearly, under the current circumstances, a simple blanket barrier was no longer sufficient to give Bai Lian a sense of security.

So, after serious consideration for a few seconds, Bai Lianyue took her pillow and trotted off to Ailiya’s room.

Just like in the past when she was scared by horror movies.

Although it was somewhat embarrassing for a mother to be frightened by a horror movie and then run to her daughter for protection, the evil goddess obviously didn’t have the energy to think about that now.

Fast forward to the present, after entering her daughter’s room, Bai Lianyue hugged her pillow and tiptoed to Ailiya’s bedside. Looking at the ‘sleeping’ girl on the bed, Bai Lianyue carefully reached out and nudged Ailiya’s shoulder.

“Hey, Ai’er, Ai’er?”

After being shaken for a while, Ailiya slowly opened her drowsy eyes.

“Mom? What’s wrong?”

“Well, Ai’er~”

Blinking her watery big eyes, the evil goddess looked pitifully at her daughter.

“Can I sleep with you tonight?”

However, faced with Bai Lianyue’s request, Ailiya showed no sign of being moved and coldly turned away, directly showing her back to Miss Bai Lianyue.

“Not tonight, I’m very tired tonight… I want to rest well, and Mom, your sleeping posture is too bad.”

“Eh?!”

Hearing this, Bai Lianyue instantly displayed a flustered expression, her little mouth pouting.

Of course, Bai Lianyue wouldn’t give up. She hurriedly went to the other side of the bed and, like a pitiful kitten, poked half of her head out from under the bed, looking piteously at Ailiya.

“…”

However, Ailiya turned over again.

When Ailiya turned over, Bai Lianyue would scurry to the other side and continue to look at her daughter with pleading eyes.

And so, after coming back and forth, over and over several times, seemingly satisfied, Ailiya finally stopped turning and looked at the blue-haired girl in front of her with a mixture of resignation and indulgence.

“Alright, just for tonight.”

“Hehe~”

Seeing Ailiya agree, the evil goddess immediately beamed with joy. After placing her pillow on the bed, she happily crawled under the covers and affectionately hugged Ailiya’s neck.

“I knew Ai’er wouldn’t bear to refuse mom~”

After getting into bed and feeling her daughter’s warmth, the terrified evil goddess finally calmed down and happily planted a light kiss on her daughter’s face.

“Hehe~”

Faced with such an adorable ‘mother,’ Ailiya couldn’t help but show a genuinely sweet smile and raised her hand to pinch Bai Lianyue’s cute face.

“Good girl, go to sleep early~”

“Okay~”
