Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 319 - 320: My daughters are really adorable [2/6]

Yumo has been pretty gloomy these past couple of days.

She agreed to let Xiao mobilize the Abyssal Demons in the eastern part of the Winter Forest for several major reasons.

One of which was to reawaken the people’s fear of the Abyssal Demons on the continent, to unite them against external threats, and abandon internal conflicts.

Looking back,

This objective has been quite successful.

The higher-ups of all major powers took this Abyssal Demon invasion very seriously, even planning to hold a continental conference that hasn’t been convened for a hundred years.

Including the wars between the Red Leaf and Sadik Empires and various small countries, everything came to a halt after the news of the Abyssal Demon invasion was received.

These powers almost unanimously focused their attention on the north.

They were afraid of another large-scale Abyssal Demon invasion.

In addition, Yumo wanted to give the Chosen One a massive setback through this attack to make him face reality and not be overly confident.

At the same time, while educating him, she wanted Shuoyue to change his memories, to erase her ’Bloody Butterfly’ identity and the relationship between the ’Bloody Butterfly’ and the Black Rose family from his mind.

Also, she wanted to rescue the Marquis and Marchioness, freeing Kalina, and those children who were used as experimental subjects...

Judging by the outcome, aside from accidentally killing the Male Lead, the other objectives were achieved quite smoothly...

However,

For the fact that she accidentally killed the Son of Destiny, Yumo still feels incredibly regretful.

Although she disliked him, Xue Tianao is after all the Male lead, one of the crucial figures in saving the world and completing the trials.

’And now?’

The character she has been waiting for hundreds of years finally appeared, and was accidentally killed by her...

’This,’

’Is simply outrageous!’

’Is there a mistake? Why did that bastard charge at me with his divine power all of a sudden! And... why couldn’t I control myself! Ahhhh!’

’So annoying!’

Every time she thought about this, Yumo felt extremely frustrated.

After the Abyssal Demon swarm receded, Yumo even couldn’t believe that Xue Tianao had died. After all, he’s the Chosen One, right? It wouldn’t be surprising if he had some life-saving tricks up his sleeve, ’right? Maybe he could even resurrect from death? ’

With this thought in mind, after the battle, Yumo tried to collect fragments of Xue Tianao’s soul in the ruins,

Hoping to learn from the necromancers of the Red Moon Tower and reshape the soul, thus resurrecting the Chosen One.

Unfortunately,

After searching for a long time, Yumo couldn’t find even a bit of soul debris. At most, she found some ashes of Xue Tianao...

After piling up the ashes, Yumo, unwilling to accept the reality, sat next to it for a long time, hoping for a miracle to happen.

However, after several hours, nothing happened...

In the end, Yumo had no choice but to fully accept this reality.

After accepting this reality, Yumo didn’t feel relieved, but became even more troubled. Because, with the death of the Chosen One, the responsibility to complete the trials has now fallen on Mengxi.

Every time she thought about how that girl had used her trust to fool her for so long, Yumo just felt so irritated. Being angry was one thing,

The key question is,’ how should I face that girl in the future after this showdown?’ Now, she feared that whenever she saw Mengxi, she would inevitably recall her own embarrassing past.

A feeling of shame would then flood her heart,

In that case, how could she communicate with that girl?

’Should I’

’Just ignore her?’

Hmm,

’But she’s the only remaining Chosen One. With Xue Tianao out of the picture now, isn’t she the only one to rely on?’

Under such circumstances, she feared that she not only couldn’t ignore her, but also had to take even more care of her! After all, if something happened to this girl, the trials would be truly over...

’Also, if Mengxi were to ask why I, an Abyssal Demon, have been plotting to stay by her side?’

’How should I explain that?’

’I can’t mention the trials...’

’If I can’t explain it clearly, would it make her suspicious of me? At that time, if she dislikes me, what should I do...’

...

In short, for the past two days, Yumo’s mind has been troubled by these issues. It made her mood quite gloomy and depressed, and she even felt a strong pressure.

So, after assisting the major forces to retreat in the identity of Yu Black Rose,

She came to the tent in the middle of the camp, wanting to take a bath, relax, and soothe her tense heart.

Before the bath,

Yumo naturally noticed the two little fellows fighting in the Black Rose caravan. Although she had many questions in her mind, wanting to thoroughly ’ask’ her daughters, but after seeing the dirty little white wolf and little grey bird,

Yumo temporarily abandoned the plan to question them,

The children were so dirty...

As a mother, Yumo couldn’t stand it.

Therefore,

About an hour ago, Yumo brought the two transformed little creatures to the tent in the middle of the camp, and ordered Xizhi and Qiu Mingtong to prepare some hot water. After that, the black-haired girl took off her dress stained with numerous blood stains and dirt, and slowly bathed in the comforting hot water.

Attempting to wash away the stains on their bodies as well as the hesitations in their hearts through the rinsing of hot water.

While cleaning her own body, Yumo also, after a long time, personally bathes her two daughters. Picking up a towel and soap, she proceeds to give the two adorable creatures a thorough wash.

Regarding this,

The two sisters, Limo and Liyu, who have transformed into adorable creatures, naturally didn’t oppose.

They already enjoy being close to their mother, so they take this opportunity to replenish their "motherly energy" While their mother is brushing their fur, they kept rubbing against the black-haired girl’s fair and watery delicate body, purring continuously.

On the faces of the two little ones, a radiant smile appears without them realizing it, making their already fluffy and cute faces even more adorable.

This causes Yumo, who was gently rubbing her daughter’s head, to feel an increasingly irresistible sense of love.

Making the scene inside the tent feels incredibly heartwarming.

*Meow~*

*Squeak~*

The adorable voice of the two little ones, along with their soft touches, filled Yumo’s bright red eyes with a sense of happiness.

Thanks to the sisters’ hardworking efforts to act cute, after a few minutes, Yumo’s gloomy mood really did dissipate quite a bit.

That indescribable sense of tiredness in her heart was even completely gone under her daughters healing touch.

Indeed,

’My children are really cute~’

Yumo’s pretty face involuntarily wore a proud expression. As she revealed a loving smile, Yumo continued to gently clean the fur of Limo, who had transformed into a little white wolf.

Feeling Yumo’s caresses and the comfortable sensation of the brush stroking her fur, Limo couldn’t help but make content sounds,

"Awooo Awooo~" (Comfortable, comfortable~)

The excited little wolf pup even directly turned over, lying in the tub with her four legs up in the air, exposing her white belly to Yumo,

"Woof Woof!" (Belly! Rub rub!)

"Alright, alright, I got it~"

Although Yumo couldn’t understand Limo’s words right now, seeing her daughter’s familiar actions, how could she not understand Limo’s thoughts? After all, she had taken care of this girl for hundreds of years. She often bathed her when she had just become a demon.

For a moment,

The memories of hundreds of years ago seemed to merge with the scene before her.

"You’re still as spoilt as ever."

After sighing helplessly, Yumo gently used the brush to comb the little white wolf’s belly fur, cleaning the dirt from her belly, while the little white wolf showed an expression of enjoyment.

’It’s good that Limo is still in her cute beast form,’

’If it were the human form of Limo, this scene would probably be too stimulating...’

On the other side,

Liyu, who was relatively clean and had finished washing early, fluttered her wings and perched on Yumo’s shoulder, looking somewhat complicatedly at her sister, who was continuously acting cute in front of their mother. She had been reproaching her sister Limo for being too wild in battle, making her all dirty...

’But now it seems,’

’That was not a bad thing,’

’Hmm,’

’If I knew being dirty could get more pampering from mother.’

’Then I should have rolled around in the mud pit before coming here!’

Watching her sister constantly interacting with their mother, Liyu couldn’t help but make a few comments. Although she had the idea of rolling in the mud pit, Liyu was just thinking about it. After all, she is a sensible child, she can’t do things that would disappoint her mother.

’Yes, yes, be sensible, don’t compete with your silly sister.’

After comforting herself a few times,

The little gray bird propped herself up on her wings and made a show of being a little adult.

Catching Liyu’s small movements out of the corner of her eye, Yumo couldn’t help but smile,

’Indeed,’

’My daughters are really adorable~’

...

I really don’t want,

To be separated from them...
