Volume 5, Chapter 54 – Ailiya’s Little Schemes, and a Certain Polana in the Desert

“That child Xingwu is quite stubborn… Sometimes she clearly knows she did something wrong, but still refuses to admit it stubbornly. Well, but since she’ll correct herself afterward, I generally don’t force her to acknowledge her mistakes.”

“Mm-hmm, what else~? Oh right, Mommy! Tell me what Xingwu is afraid of!”

“Afraid of?”

“Like being afraid of bugs, afraid of ghosts, things like that~”

“Xingwu isn’t like that. That child is quite bold—she’ll casually swat cockroaches to death. As for ghosts, she enjoys catching them every day.”

“I see, what a pity… enmm, then what is she afraid of?”

“Afraid of spicy food, I suppose… That child is quite similar to you… can’t handle even a little spice. If she accidentally eats something spicy, her eyes immediately fill with tears.” Lifting her finger to her chin, the evil god miss said while recalling.

“Oh oh, what else! What else!”

Hearing this, Ailiya’s eyes lit up as she continued asking excitedly.

“Uh, Ai’er, why do you care so much about this question? What she’s afraid of—is that really so important?”

“Of course it is!”

Ailiya knelt on the sofa, seriously putting her hands on her hips to emphasize.

“That’s my future sister! Of course I need to understand her well. After knowing what she’s afraid of and what she dislikes, I can try my best to help eliminate these things from daily life! So Xingwu won’t be scared! Right, Mommy?”

“Oh, that seems reasonable.”

“So, what else is Xingwu afraid of?”

“Afraid… afraid of some very sharp sounds, like the sound of keychains scraping against tables.”

“Mm-hmm! What else!”

“That child Xingwu is also quite ticklish. When she used to play around with her close friends, she’d immediately surrender as soon as they tickled her.”

“What else! It doesn’t have to be fears! Any embarrassing stories work too!”

“As for embarrassing stories, in middle school she wrote a love letter to a classmate, even wrote a love poem… but because that child’s Chinese grades constantly hovered around the passing line, well enmm, it was quite amusing…”

Just like this, Bai Lianyue spoke while Ailiya took notes~

Rеαԁ οո КαtRеаԁinɡСαfе

As more and more information was extracted by Ailiya, the smile on the silver-haired girl’s face became increasingly brilliant, increasingly full of meaningful intent.

The little thing in the evil god miss’s belly seemed to sense something, constantly protesting… Unfortunately, this still couldn’t stop Bai Lianyue’s self-exposure.

Stroking Bai Lianyue’s belly and feeling the life within protesting, Ailiya licked her lips playfully.

“Ehehe~”

Little Ailiya was still the type to hold grudges~

The incident of being bullied by Xingwu in the Westivian Covenant capital back then was still vivid in Ailiya’s memory. Being someone who repays every slight, she had always been waiting for a chance to get back at her~

Not to mention, just two days ago she had been flung out the window by thorns controlled by Xingwu~

To properly handle her future ‘daughter,’ Ailiya naturally needed to make some preparations in advance~

Dozens of minutes later, holding a notebook filled with records, Ailiya leaned back on the sofa with satisfaction.

Seeing Ailiya’s smiling face, Bai Lianyue smiled with relief.

It seems

This child is also looking forward to her sister’s arrival… preparing so seriously.

Of course, the muttering Bai Lianyue didn’t notice the strange black aura gradually emanating from her own belly…

After ending this topic of conversation, Bai Lianyue’s face showed a trace of gravity as she asked somewhat seriously:

“Speaking of which, Ai’er…”

“What is it, Mommy?”

“Is there any news about that guy… Polarvitan?”

While handling Bai family affairs and searching for House Solrog, Bai Lianyue was obviously also constantly monitoring the Abyssal Lord’s movements.

After hearing the Abyssal Lord’s name, the smile on Ailiya’s face also temporarily faded, and she sat up straight, no longer fidgeting on the sofa.

Shaking her head, Ailiya said helplessly:

Rеаԁ oո KatReаdіnɡСаfе

“Until now… there’s still no news of Polarvitan.”

The Abyssal Lord, that level of monster was equivalent to a nuclear-level time bomb—once it exploded, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Therefore, after becoming a Bai family ancestor, while arranging people to find Lianyue, Ailiya also dispatched numerous personnel to search for information about the Abyssal Lord.

“At least, within Hualong Nation… there’s nothing.”

“I see.”

“Lianyue, do you think it’s possible… that Polarvitan didn’t come to this world?”

Pinching her chin, Ailiya proposed her speculation.

“Why do you say that?”

“That’s the Abyssal Lord Polarvitan. As everyone knows, among the Trinity of Malevolence, the one with the most violent personality and strongest destructive power is that monster.”

Ailiya replied seriously.

“On Yao Xing, didn’t that monster constantly attack the human world? The large-scale attack on Clavino back then, and the recent turmoil in the Maretide Kingdom—weren’t those all caused by that monster? That kind of monster should have caused a big commotion long ago after coming to Earth, instead of staying quiet until now… So, Ai’er was thinking… when crossing the spacetime tunnel, because I was suddenly summoned by the Bai family… could Polarvitan have gotten lost? Then ended up in some other world? Just didn’t make it through?”

Ailiya analyzed seriously.

Hearing this, the elf girl remained silent briefly, then slowly closed her eyes.

“What you say isn’t unreasonable, but…”

“But?”

“But that guy might not cause a big disturbance in the human world immediately upon arrival, as you imagine. Polarvitan’s personality is indeed fierce and violent, but that guy is equally… very cautious, extraordinarily cautious.”

“Cautious?”

“Mm.”

Meanwhile, in western Asia, within the borders of the small nation Ilidanel.

A figure wearing a gray hemp robe sat on a stretch of desert, silently gazing at a small town not far away—watching this small town that had been reduced to ruins and rubble by the flames of war. Watching the emaciated women and children who wandered listlessly through the ruins searching for usable supplies.

Rеaⅾ оո KаtReadiոɡСаfе

A desolate and tragic atmosphere shrouded the place.

Regarding this scene, the dark purple pupil beneath the hemp robe showed no emotional fluctuation. She was simply observing silently, watching.

While the girl observed, a thin little boy struggled with all his might to climb up the desert slope, barely making it to the hemp-robed girl’s side.

The moment he saw the girl, the boy’s face lit up with joy:

“Sister Polana! You’re okay!! Thank goodness!”

The moment she heard this address, the girl’s eyes beneath the hemp robe couldn’t help but twitch.

The hemp-robed girl—that is, the Abyssal Lord Polarvitan—felt countless expletives racing through her mind. In the past, anyone who dared use this “name” to address her would have been torn apart immediately. But now… Polan… ah no… Polarvitan no longer had that temper.

The reason was simple: she had told this little boy this name herself.

To hide her identity, she naturally couldn’t tell others the name ‘Polarvitan.’ But Polarvitan herself wasn’t good at coming up with names. Therefore, several days ago when the little boy asked her name… Polarvitan used the false name ‘Polana.’

What choice did she have!!

Who told this name to be the first one that popped into her head!

All because of that damned old hag…

“What could happen to me?”

Using the awkward local language, Polarvitan replied irritably.

To this, the little boy could only scratch the back of his head awkwardly.

“Yesterday Klaga’s troops came to sweep through… many people were killed, many sisters were taken away. I thought you also…”

Klaga…

The country that had occupied this place and was currently at war with them?

“Tch, boring.”

Polarvitan said disdainfully, her tone full of mockery.

Rеаd оո ΚаtRеαԁіnɡСаfe

However, while mocking, Polarvitan also frowned in displeasure, examining the little boy before her with some irritation. After taking in the bruises and bloodstains on his body, Polarvitan’s eyes narrowed slightly:

“You were beaten?”

“Uh, sort of.”

“Why?”

“Well, yesterday when I was bringing back the meat Sister Polana gave me… they saw it, so they came to grab it, and then…”

“Want me to kill them?” Polarvitan said coldly.

“No no no! No need!!”

The little boy hurriedly waved his hands, stopping Polarvitan’s thoughts.

“They’re all good people… just because they were too hungry. And besides, they also left me some meat, so it’s not a big problem haha~”

After silently looking at the little boy for a few moments, Polarvitan said no more.

“Being kind at times like this will harm you. Whatever, suit yourself.”

“Hehe.”

“You came looking for me—there should be other matters, right?”

“Mm-hmm! Right! Nenitala came today! She’s distributing supplies to refugees outside Yellow Sand City not far away!”

“Nenitala? You mean that human powerhouse?”

“Yes, very frightening… but also very capable.”

“Fine.”

At this moment, Polana couldn’t help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.

“Let’s go take a look…”

Just how capable could the powerhouses of this world be?
