Chapter 511: Chapter 509 Welly! You’re Still Pretending with Me!
…
Sally ate a Rejuvenation Pill and had a standoff with Welly, but her determination was clearly inadequate compared to Welly’s ease.
This one, who wouldn’t budge, seemed no different from a virtual player who had logged off, even though he was obviously a real person.
“Cough~!” Sally coughed out loud.
Welly immediately looked up, pretending he had just realized she was awake, “Are you awake? Hungry?”
“Hungry, do you have anything good to eat?” Sally looked at him with coquettish eyes, pouting her lips and puffing up her cheeks in a fit of pique.
Welly immediately took out all sorts of boxes, big and small, from the Different Space, along with jars and bottles of elixirs.
“…What are these?” Sally was not surprised by the boxes—they were mostly Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures—but what about the elixirs?
Welly responded, “They are Holy-grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, which can be advanced to Sub-Divine Grade quality after they’re processed. Though they don’t match up to Divine Elixirs, they should be fine for filling one’s stomach.”
Sally opened a bottle, and a sweet fruity scent escaped… She immediately tipped her head back and consumed it all.
The taste was very sweet, like fruit-flavored candy beans.
Her eyes sparkled with surprise, “This is delicious, and the kids will probably love it too. I’ll make more of these later on.”
Seeing her eat them all at once, Welly got a shock, but once he was sure she was fine, he relaxed, “Okay.”
“I’ve heard from Manman’s father that you like to research herbs. Back when you were a Human Demon in the Dark Continent, you often asked him to look for rare herbs.”
“Mm, I don’t actually have much talent for alchemy, but I enjoy doing it.”
“I remember there are also levels for alchemists. What level are you at now?”
“If we’re talking about talent, I’d be considered at the Quasi-Divine Rank. Since I haven’t made a true Divine Elixir, the best I’ve made is a Sub-Divine Pill.”
“To refine Divine Pills, you need Divine-grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to practice with. But those items are scarce enough as it is, where would there be a surplus for you to practice with?” Sally looked at the elixir bottle in her hand and then took out a large pile of Spirit-grade and Holy Grade Level Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures from the System Space.
“Help me refine some Quasi-Divine Grade elixirs; they are tasty!” Sally’s eyes glittered as she gazed at Welly, as if he were a chicken that could lay golden eggs even if he only ate grass.
Welly, looking at the messy pile of Spirit-grade, Holy-grade, and Sub-Divine Grade… Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, was left breathless, “You… Your son takes after you.”
“What?” Sally didn’t catch on at the moment.
“Nothing.” Welly stored all the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, planning to sort them out later when he had free time.
Sally took out the Bronze Ancient Cauldron, retrieving the drop of Essence Blood she had used to claim ownership, “I’ll give this to you as well; it seems less useful in my hands than in yours.”
Upon seeing the Ancient Cauldron, Welly’s eyes involuntarily trembled, “How is that possible! It, it…”
He was so agitated he could hardly speak.
“I picked it up during a mission,” Sally replied.
Welly instantly grabbed the Divine Cauldron, confirmed it over and over again, and then looked at her solemnly, “Do you know what this is?”
“I have no idea. But I can show you a trick with it; just wait.” Sally took out a dry Divine Beast Pill from the System Space, not knowing where You Hao had gotten such ancient relics.
She placed the dry Divine Beast Pill inside the cauldron, and before long, it came to life! Emitting Five-Colored Divine Light, it was as fresh as if it had just been plucked.
Sally tossed the pill into her mouth and swallowed it, finishing off with a satisfied belch~!
“It’s just that the taste is a bit off, not as good as those fresh and spiritual Divine Beast Pills you gave me; this one has a strong fishy scent.”
After confirming once again, Welly knew this was what he had thought, “Yanyan, this is the Treasure Cauldron that nurtured the first generation of the Ancient Gods, also known as the Ancient Primordial Mother Cauldron!”
“Ah?” Sally looked surprised, “This cauldron can get pregnant?”
“The very first life was born from the Ancient Primordial Cauldron. It’s just that this thing was divided into two parts a long time ago; one part was lost without a trace, and the other turned into the Divine Clan, also dissipating between heaven and earth.” Welly couldn’t understand why this thing could be restored to its intact original state.
“No matter what it is, I’m giving it to you.” Sally couldn’t be bothered to think about it too much; she was full and energetic now, “Let’s go. We’ve got a mission to do.”
Welly put away the Ancient Primordial Cauldron, looking at Sally with a particularly complex look in his eyes, “Yanyan, did you really give the Ancient Primordial Cauldron to me?”
She had already put it away… “Yep, I won’t use it anyway; keep it for alchemy.”
Sally stretched lazily, scrolling through the Holy Grail Card rankings again, “I think we should collect Holy Grail Card Fragments. Look, the other guilds have so many.”
To Welly, compared to the Ancient Primordial Cauldron, Holy Grail Cards were hardly anything.
But watching her busy herself was quite fun.
Even now, he sort of dragged his feet about this game world, far less interesting than watching her.
Such fresh and intriguing expressions, whether the happy surprise of getting a rare item or the fear and trepidation of this game world, all made it hard for him to look away… No wonder Sly Fox liked following her around so much.
Besides these strange worlds, what mattered more was being with her, having her all to himself, along with more chances to conceive offspring.
“Yanyan, where would you like to go?” Welly’s voice was particularly mellow.
“Let me check the map.” Sally grabbed another Elixir Bottle and ate it like Sugar Beans, cheerfully selecting their next destination.
Welly just kept watching her, as though he couldn’t get enough of her.
“Here.” Sally enlarged the map for Welly to see, “Augustus’ Tomb, no one has ever successfully cleared it, so it’s very likely to drop Holy Grail Card Fragments.”
“Then let’s go there.” Welly nodded, “Are you pregnant?”
“Yeah, I am.” Sally replied, “Why else would I eat these things? Is the ice cream not tasty, or the grilled meat not aromatics, the beer not refreshing? Sigh! After giving birth to this one, I definitely want to enjoy myself for a while.”
“Is it still just one?” Welly’s eyes glinted as he stared at her abdomen.
“Not one? Could it be two…” Sally finally understood what Welly meant, “Welly! You’re still pretending with me!”
Welly quickly got up, “I’m going to pack.”
“What’s there to pack?” Sally put away the Elixir and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures he gave her, “What did you do when I was sleepwalking last night?”
“…” Welly’s ears turned red.
Sally stood with her hands on her hips, indignant, “You! You took advantage of someone in distress!”
Welly turned around, suddenly closing the distance between them… and kissed her deeply!
Sally’s eyes widened in surprise, but she soon melted into the kiss, her body instinctively curling into his embrace as if it had a memory of its own.
…
After Welly got dressed again, he stood by the bed, looking at a satiated Sally, “That’s what happened last night.”
Sally ate a Rejuvenation Pill, feeling languidly coquettish, realizing he could be so pleasing, “I like it, make sure to wake me up next time.”
“… It’s not good to wake someone sleepwalking; it might become a nightmare that’s hard to shake. You should take a Soothing Pill before bed, and you probably won’t sleepwalk.” Welly handed Sally a bottle of Elixir, “We won’t do the mission today. Someone contacted me about selling Holy Grail Card Fragments. I’ll go check if it’s the ones we’re missing.”
“Okay.” Sally, content in body and mind, wanted to laze in bed a little longer, so she took a Soothing Pill, “Set up a defensive formation for me when you leave.”
“Mm.” Welly bent down and kissed her forehead.
