Chapter 588: Chapter 586: The Fastball
“I’ve heard so much about you,” said Sally as she held Little Shiyi.
“Is that so?” Linai watched Sally with a teasing look in his eye.
[Host! Take him down!] Xiaomei’s voice was clearly excited—she seemed to really fancy the data of a Demon God.
Sally: [The System isn’t even here, and you’re still so enthusiastic?]
[It’s irrelevant to the Main System. Xiaomei just needs more new Beast Husband genetic data to upgrade the Offspring System.]
[Haven’t you reached the limit with the Divine Beast-grade? You’ve even created Little Dot, the Ancient Emperor Beast.]
[The Ancient Emperor Beast is a special case. Xiaomei has found that there’s still room for improvement at the Super Divine Beast Level.]
[You’ve given birth too, haven’t you? Xiao Tiantian.]
[It’s not the same. It’s a whole new level that requires data to trigger.]
[I think it’s impossible that there’s anything more.]
[Host, take him down. Anyway, there’s no loss, look at his well-proportioned features—he’s quite the beauty.]
[…I’m not lecherous!]
[Yes, yes, Xiaomei is lecherous, so Host, fulfill Xiaomei’s desire~ Xiaomei wants his data! Please~ Please beg the host~]
It had been a long time since Sally had seen Xiaomei act so coquettishly about something. Most of the time, she was silent and motionless, as if she didn’t exist.
“Ahem~ Well, guests are to be treated kindly. Little Shiyi, please entertain Xiao Qingqing and… its master, the venerable Demon God,” Sally decided it was best to organize her thoughts first.
Little Shiyi glanced at his mother, then at Linai… He wasn’t a child anymore; after all, he was over eleven thousand years old and had some understanding of what could happen between males and females.
He raised his paw and slammed it down on Xiao Qingqing, leaving Xiao Qingqing totally dazed!
“I treated you as a good friend, but your master wants to woo my mom! See if I don’t beat you!” Little Shiyi continued to slap away.
Xiao Qingqing didn’t dare to dodge and looked utterly innocent, “Little Shiyi, I-I-I didn’t know either.”
Linai, with one hand on his hip, looked towards Jiushen Mountain, especially the tallest main peak, and curled his lips into a smile, “It’s been a long time since I’ve been here, Xuan Tian.”
[Host? How’s the consideration going?]
[To be honest, all these Beast Husbands of mine are enough to make a zodiac cycle.]
[It doesn’t matter, Host, you can still complete a hundred-family genealogy.]
[…Roll!]
Sally didn’t go back to Qing Linghuan’s house.
Instead, she took a large RV from the System Space and prepared two children’s meals and two adult meals.
The children’s meals were nutritionally rich, with fruit, milk, vegetables, and meat patties… The adult meals were much simpler: a big hamburger, a portion of French fries, and a cup of fruit-flavored soda.
Although these had been in the space for thousands of years, their temperature and freshness were just like when they were first made.
[Xiaomei, if it’s just about fast food, I don’t mind letting you extract his data. But if he’s unwilling, let’s drop the matter.]
[Of course, Host, you’re so kind. I love you, Host. I will be ever loyal, only to you, Host.]
[Oh? Are you planning on being with someone else?]
[If the Host stops having children, then Xiaomei won’t be needed anymore, so…]
[Hmph, we can talk about that when I’m dead.]
[Alright, Host.]
[…Sure enough, staying quiet, you must be up to no good!]
[Hehe~]
Linai looked at the simple hamburger, fries, and drink, set alongside some pure silver cutlery.
“You don’t need these for this,” Linai said as he picked up the big burger and took a bite directly.
Sally was surprised to see he was familiar with burgers, “Oh? Have you been to other worlds, Demon God sir?”
“Mm.” Linai looked at Little Shiyi, who was struggling with a ketchup packet. He took it from his hands, opened it effortlessly, and squeezed some on the edge of the plate, then dipped a fry in it and fed it to him.
Little Shiyi blinked in surprise, then opened his mouth to eat, “Thank you, Demon God, it’s delicious.”
“Hmm, have some more then,” Linai patted his head, the slippery golden mouse fur shimmered with a bright aura.
Xiao Qingqing swallowed her food whole, stuffing everything into her belly at once, packaging paper included.
Sally was dumbfounded: “…”
“I want more,” Xiao Qingqing said to Sally.
This time Sally took out a large turkey.
Xiao Qingqing’s eyes lit up, and she swallowed it in one gulp…
But this time, after finishing, her belly swelled up with a big bulge!
Sally couldn’t help but chuckle, “Can you digest it all?”
Linai took a fry and chewed on it dryly, “It’s a Divine Beast.”
Curious, Little Shiyi looked at Linai, “Demon God, will you and my mom have a little brother or a little sister for me?”
Sally’s face blushed hotly, “Little Shiyi! What nonsense are you talking about!”
Linai looked at Sally with amusement and asked Little Shiyi, “Do you want a brother, or a sister?”
“I want both, little kids don’t make choices,” Little Shiyi replied earnestly.
Linai was taken aback, then burst into laughter.
Sally was at a loss for words; how had Ming Linyuan taught this child!
A simple dinner was thus cheerily enjoyed by host and guests alike.
Sally cleaned up the table and poured herself a glass of juice.
In the garden outside, Linai was catching glowing Spirit Insects with Little Shiyi and Xiao Qingqing.
Supporting her chin with one hand, Sally watched the three of them, feeling serene and content.
Gradually, she closed her eyes and fell asleep…
When she woke up again, she found herself in bed, with Little Shiyi asleep holding Xiao Qingqing beside her.
Outside the RV, Linai lay on her lounge chair, appreciating the night sky by the moonlight.
Sally quietly got out of bed, carefully extracted Xiao Qingqing from Little Shiyi’s grasp, and put her aside to sleep comfortably.
She then tucked Little Shiyi in properly.
…
Hearing Sally approaching, Linai got up, intending to give up the lounge chair.
Sally said, “No need, you lie down. I just woke up and wanted to walk around a bit.”
Linai lay back down and glanced at her belly, “What are you carrying this time?”
“A Little Kirin,” Sally replied.
Linai’s lips curved slightly, “How about having one with me?”
A direct approach, no beating around the bush.
“Didn’t you dislike the Offspring System?” Sally asked, hands behind her back and looking at him sideways.
Linai responded, “Are you referring to deploying the Offspring System in the Demon Realm?”
Sally nodded, “Yes, I can have children thanks to the Offspring System. I’m just an infertile little mouse by nature.”
Linai replied, “It’s not necessary. Like a balance, the rise of the Human Clan is inevitable, and the decline of the Monster Beast Clan is also inevitable; over time, the Beastmen will evolve towards humans.”
Sally had not known this, “Beastmen turning into humans?”
Linai, “Though the process is lengthy, it is indeed the case.”
Suddenly, Sally remembered something, “I’ve been to a world where humans had all transformed into beastmen.”
Linai: “Hmm, what you visited is the future shadow of this world.”
